My profession is too unique.

Chapter 69 This whip will be very cool.

Yu Xuan wandered around the factory, the scorching high-temperature furnace making the air sweltering. Layers of cold air rose from his body, condensing into ice armor before his expression eased somewhat.

After waiting for a long time in the deepest secret room, Zhou Xian finally arrived, his right sleeve still empty, his expression calm: "He agreed?"

“Hmm.” Yu Xuan nodded, with a hint of pride. “In the end, he was just a refugee, and he had no ability to resist.”

These words made Zhou Xian's expression turn quite ugly. "Are you saying that the reason I haven't been able to do anything to him is because I'm not capable enough?"

Yu Xuan shrugged, showing little respect for Zhou Xian, who had fallen from grace. "I didn't mean that."

Zhou Xian was furious, but he forced himself to suppress it and said in a deep voice, "After obtaining the spatial crystal and the extracted Black Tuo power, kill Su Chen directly."

Yu Xuan was surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Don't we still need to rely on his power to corrupt Yuan Chenyang?"

"I'm just kidding him." Zhou Xian sneered. "We need to give him some follow-up information before things get easier to handle."

"Old fox," Yu Xuan cursed inwardly, then asked hesitantly, "Is this... the priest's intention?"

“Of course, he blasphemed your gods, so he deserves to die.” Zhou Xian nodded.

“That makes sense.” Yu Xuan didn’t show excessive enthusiasm, but said with concern, “He is already a second-tier professional, and should be a [Wind Hunter]. Even if we launch a sneak attack, it will be difficult to kill him.”

Zhou Xian casually tossed something out, "Catch!"

The thing came so fast and quickly that Yu Xuan's expression changed slightly, and he hastily stretched out his right hand.

boom!
He staggered back a few steps, a sharp pain shooting through his palm. Yu Xuan gritted his teeth, looked down, and saw a black, rhomboid crystal that appeared even more alluring against the backdrop of blood in his palm.

“This is…” Yu Xuan clearly recognized it, quite surprised, yet delighted: “In that case, there’s no problem.”

"Get out of here." Zhou Xian waved his hand, increasingly lacking the demeanor he once had as the Director of the Interior.

Before Yu Xuan could turn around, he saw Zhou Xian's face suddenly turn extremely ugly, and he shouted sharply, "Idiot, you don't even know you have a tail behind you."

Yu Xuan was stunned. Before he could react, he heard a series of loud explosions outside.

"Retreat!" Zhou Xian didn't hesitate and rushed out without even glancing at Yu Xuan.

"Where do you think you're going!" A loud shout came from outside. Yu Xuan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly left through the secret passage.

……

"We're out..." Su Chen sensed the faint spiritual imprints, but dared not approach the encirclement, cautiously circling around from the outside.

boom!
Thunder roared across the sky, and in the distance, azure lightning flashed, with cyan flames rising into the air.

"Zhou Xian is here too..."

Su Chen withdrew his gaze. Zhou Xian was not someone he could afford to offend right now. It would be best if he could catch him, but if he couldn't, there was nothing he could do.

There are people here!

The roar from the outside world was incessant, making Yu Xuan's scalp tingle. He was surrounded by the combat airships of the Surveillance Department, with beams of light shining all around him.

"Did I really bring them here?"

These airships seemed to arrive around the same time as Zhou Xian, but setting up an encirclement and attack could not have been completed in a short time; they had clearly been prepared long ago.

He reacted extremely quickly. This was a factory area, with plenty of places to hide, and he swiftly disappeared into the shadows.

"How did I get targeted?"

He was anxious. He had been hiding himself very well and had only recently been put into use. How could he be targeted as soon as he made a move? There was only one possibility.

"Su Chen reported me? How dare he!" Yu Xuan was incredulous. Everyone here was a follower of the Ghost God, and none of them were clean.

Su Chen dared to report him, didn't he think about himself?

"Damn it, damn it..." Yu Xuan was extremely agitated, his pupils gradually turning black. "As long as I escape, you're doomed!" "Even if I get caught today, I'll implicate you. At worst, we'll be weighed together and die together!"

However, to Yu Xuan's surprise, it seemed that no one was specifically targeting him.

The scattered workers disrupted the situation, and he gradually broke free from the encirclement.

"How could this be?" Yu Xuan wondered to himself. If Su Chen had reported it, someone would definitely be keeping an eye on him.

In the current situation, it seems that even the supervisory department doesn't know who's actually in the factory, so the surrounding forces are very scattered.

"No matter what, it must be related to him." Yu Xuan took a breath, stopped in a small alley, glanced back at the patrol airship in the distance, and secretly felt relieved.

"Thank goodness, we escaped..."

Before his thoughts could settle, Yu Xuan felt a chill run down his spine. A thunderous roar came from above, and the surroundings turned crimson. Suddenly, the air was filled with the acrid smell of burning ozone.

Suddenly looking up, he saw a twisted, scarlet lightning bolt, as thick as an arm and several meters long, spreading above his head. Just one glance made Yu Xuan feel his liver and gallbladder tremble.

But the target didn't seem to be him. Suddenly, a dark figure darted out from the side, wielding a long, blue, whip-like weapon that whipped towards him with a gust of wind!
As if it were a carefully calculated moment, the crimson lightning struck just as the iron whip came crashing down.

Crackling sounds filled the air as the cyan iron whip drew in lightning. The two energies mingled seamlessly, instantly enveloped by crimson arcs of electricity, their chilling killing intent unstoppable.

All of this happened in an instant. His pupils contracted rapidly in the bright light, but Yu Xuan reacted instinctively. His hands were already pushing forward, forming an icy barrier amidst the biting wind.

Snapped!
A loud crack echoed from the end of the green iron whip!
Click!

The ice barrier was shattered from above, sending shards of ice flying everywhere.

"Who...is it?!" Yu Xuan's eyes widened, as if trying to see the attacker clearly. He reached into his pocket as if to take something out, but it was too late.

Boom!

Crimson lightning erupted, instantly enveloping Yu Xuan's body, and the booming sound made Su Chen's heart skip a beat.

[The Hunt: Objective Completed - 2]

"Did they just turn him into charcoal?" Su Chen stared at the pitch-black corpse, the smell of burning filling the air. He was stunned. He then looked at the iron whip in his hand, still bearing the faint crimson arc of lightning.

This wasn't Su Chen's first time launching a sneak attack; he had accumulated a lot of experience and would strike when his opponent was most relaxed.

The opponent is, after all, a second-tier advanced class, and even if it's not over 50%, it shouldn't be underestimated.

Without holding back at all, he enhanced the iron whip with [Rage of the Gale] and summoned lightning with [Crimson Thunderclap]. The combined power was outrageously strong.

But the result was beyond his expectations; he couldn't even pull it out a second time.

"That's it..." Su Chen shook his head, then suddenly realized, "We've made quite a commotion, we need to leave quickly."

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the charred corpse again, rushed forward, and searched the entire body with practiced ease before vanishing without a trace.

Before long, a patrol airship landed, and several surveillance guards formed a formation and cautiously approached to investigate.

.........

Su Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief after climbing in through the window.

"Another one killed..."

Su Chen packed his clothes, pondering, "Yu Xuan died near the hideout of the Ghost God Cult. The authorities should have a conclusion, but the Black Tuo believers will most likely suspect me. I don't know whether they will attack me or report me next."

"Unfortunately, there isn't enough storage space, and the time is too short. Otherwise, making Yu Xuan disappear might have bought us some more time."

"However, with this..."

Su Chen stretched out his hand, revealing a black rhombus-shaped crystal in his hand.
