Under One Person: God Profiler

Xia Linyuan used the rope as a whip, drawing away the force in front of him, breaking through the invisible barrier, and striking towards the scarred man.

Scarface merely glanced at Xia Linyuan before a powerful gust of air crashed towards him.

Xia Linyuan let out a muffled groan, his body sliding backward, away from this suddenly eerie place.

With Xia Linyuan no longer interfering, Scarface punched Wang Ye hard in the stomach.

Upon hearing Xia Linyuan's reminder, Wang Ye reacted quickly, using a Tai Chi move to cushion the blow in front of him, neutralizing the scarred man's force with a gentle force. He then grabbed the scarred man's wrist and flung him away, creating distance.

Scarface flew backward, his hands moving non-stop as he flung out darts like they were free, aiming straight for Wang Ye.

Xia Linyuan rushed forward, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the rope in his hand seemed to come alive, knocking the darts to the ground one by one, making a clanging sound.

"Not bad, kid..." The scarred man stepped out from the shadows, the darts on the ground levitating in a blue aura. His eyes were fixed on Xia Linyuan: "You've managed to scatter every single one of the Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers technique's mechanical arts..."

Looking at the scarred face in front of him, so different from the real person, a chill slowly rose in Wang Ye's heart.

If Xia Linyuan hadn't been there, I might have been killed by this guy.

"Mechanical arts?" White flames flickered in Xia Linyuan's eyes. "Mechanical arts?" Xia Linyuan chuckled, "If this counts as mechanical arts, then I'm a master of mechanical arts..."

Scarface sensed Xia Linyuan's sarcasm, pinched his chin and pondered for a moment, then raised an eyebrow at Xia Linyuan and tentatively took a step forward.

Xia Linyuan pulled Wang Ye back a step.

The air suddenly froze for a moment.

Scarface, hands in his pockets, chin slightly raised, said disdainfully, "Scared?"

Xia Linyuan smiled slightly: "No, it's just that I have very good eyesight, and I'm particularly sensitive to distorted monsters. Anyone would want to stay away from such a terrifying monster if you were around..."

In Xia Linyuan's eyes, a constantly changing square object enveloped the scarred face, and the river of time flowed through the monster's body in a unique way, as if forming an independent system detached from the world.

Unlike Wang Ye's method of controlling time, Scarface's approach is like creating a new rule within the existing world's rules.

Scarface stared at Xia Linyuan, then glanced at Wang Ye. With a flick of his wrist, the dart hovering in the air shot directly at Wang Ye.

Just as Xia Linyuan was about to make a move, Wang Ye's voice rang in his ears: "Separation - Purgatory".

Centered on the two, a raging fire erupted, distorting the air as it burned, and the darts were reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

The flames slowly dissipated, leaving nothing but emptiness; the scarred man had vanished....

Is it because I saw through his methods?

Xia Linyuan let out a soft breath. The opponent's moves were as bizarre as a sorcerer's, but once he was on guard, it was difficult for him to land a hit. Maintaining that state must have been very taxing...

Wang also regained his composure during the battle: "This person is strange..."

Xia Linyuan rubbed his temples and said slowly, "Indeed, this is the first time I've ever seen such a strange scene."

"What did you see? A monster?"

Wang Ye asked in confusion

"No, that's just an abstract expression." Xia Linyuan pondered for a moment, then recounted what he had just seen to Wang Ye.

However, upon hearing Xia Linyuan's words, Wang Ye's pupils constricted sharply, and he blurted out two words: "Qi Bureau!!"

After saying that, he was puzzled again: "Impossible! How can a person set up a Qi formation in such a short time!"

Chapter 154 The Abandoned Son of the Wang Family

"What is Qi Bureau?" Xia Linyuan asked.

“The form of inanimate objects is fixed, and the innate Qi of living beings flows within them. This kind of dynamic pattern is called Qi pattern. For example, each person’s organs and tissues, as well as the flow of Qi, can be considered a special pattern, an incomplete Qi pattern.”

"When a person enters a Qi formation, they must abide by its rules and regulations. Upon entering, one will inevitably be impacted by corresponding energy flows..."

As Wang Ye spoke, he walked to the spot where the scarred man had just stood. A strange disc appeared beneath his feet, and he frowned slightly. "It makes no sense. As you just said, I was being repelled by something invisible. There should be a relatively complete Qi formation here, so why can't I sense it at all?"

Xia Linyuan recalled the monster that had loomed over the scarred face and slowly said, "Could it be that he took it away? Or eliminated it?"

“No,” Wang Ye said confidently. “The Qi formation is a closed system that forms in a fixed location. How could it disappear so quickly? This is mystical…”

Xia Linyuan raised an eyebrow slightly, glancing helplessly at the guy who could manipulate the divination board at will. This guy actually talked about metaphysics.

After Wang Ye's explanation, Xia Linyuan roughly understood Scarface's abilities.

Wang hadn't witnessed it firsthand; descriptions alone couldn't convey the other's composure within the Qi formation. Even the river of time seemed to aid Scarface in every single movement...

Just then, the phone rang. Xia Linyuan answered, and Gao Zhan's voice came through: "Brother Xia! How's it going over there? We've found the eldest young master of the Wang family!"

Gao Zhan and Gao Yuan lay prone on the rooftop, holding binoculars and gazing at the unfinished building complex. The strong wind made it difficult for them to open their eyes.

Gao Zhan reported the situation, while Gao Yuan stared intently at the other party's high-rise building: "The other party is in the building at the nine o'clock direction from where Brother Xia is, but he's huddled in a corner, and it looks like he has a gun..."

"What?! There are guns!"

Gao Zhan called out.

Xia Linyuan and Wang Ye's expressions turned serious upon hearing this information. Although they were confident they could dodge the bullets, considering that the other side had hostages, they had to consider taking the bullets themselves.

Master Xiao's invincible shield can stop bullets, which is due to the accumulation of time.

Is there anyone among us who can stop a bullet...?

Wang Ye might be able to keep him in check, but the other party might use hostages as leverage to prevent Wang Ye from getting close.

The direction at nine o'clock. That's Building 3...

Xia Linyuan looked over and saw a sliver of light peeking through the darkness. "Which floor are they on? How many are they?"

"13th floor! Only one person has been observed so far."

"Okay. Don't hang up yet. I'll connect to Bluetooth now and report back as soon as possible."

"Understood, Brother Xia."

Gao Zhan solemnly replied, then said to Gao Yuan, "You must keep a close eye on it; a gun is not a toy."

"I'm not stupid. Just keep an eye on your surroundings!"

Gao Yuan said impatiently, "I hate it when Gao Zhan orders me around!"

"I know!"

Having lofty aspirations can be troublesome...

Both of them have the same mentality: Are you trying to teach me how to do things?

Xia Linyuan sensed that Wang Ye's breathing had become heavier and comforted him, "Don't get excited yet. Call Zhuge Qing, and have Feng Baobao and Zhang Chulan as backup."

"Hmm." Wang Ye nodded slowly: "You're right. If those two people show up, the thugs might get so angry that they'll just open fire."

Xia Linyuan smiled slightly: "That's right, that's what I think too."

After saying that, the two walked back in the direction they came from. Passing through the corridor, Zhang Chulan and the others were already waiting there for a long time, and three people were tied up on the ground.

"Wang Ye, Xia Linyuan, where have you been? We've been waiting for a while."

Zhuge Qing greeted him with a smile.

"Yeah, Brother Xia. As a company employee, it's really unprofessional of you to subdue someone and not tie him up."

Zhang Chulan chimed in, and Feng Baobao nodded in agreement, as if to say, "That's right, that's right."

Xia Linyuan and Wang Ye looked at the scarred man lying on the ground with complicated expressions, feeling as if they had been fooled.

"what happened?"

Seeing that the two looked a little off, Zhuge Qing asked softly.

"We didn't take down this scarred man; someone else did. But we don't know his identity."

Wang also said with a hint of helplessness.

Xia Linyuan nodded slightly, agreeing with Wang Ye's point of view. The scarred man they had just fought and the scarred man lying in front of them were definitely not the same person.

The crowd stared at the two in shock, wondering who had the ability to escape from Wang Ye and Xia Linyuan.

Xia Linyuan didn't continue the discussion and said to everyone, "That person has left. Now the goal is to rescue Wang Ye's brother. My men have located the other party."

"Then let's go. Anyway, there are many of us, including two sorcerers. Saving them will be a piece of cake."

Zhang Chulan chuckled. His mind worked quickly. The main strength of a sorcerer is surprise. Wind, fire, or some other means can save people.

"The other party has a gun."

Xia Linyuan added lightly.

Zhang Chulan paused, his lips twitching slightly: "Hehe, I think we need to consider this matter more carefully."

That's a gun. In China, unauthorized possession of firearms is illegal...

Building No. 3, thirteen floors.

In a dark corner, a young man in a white shirt huddled against the wall, hiding behind an unconscious person, tossing a dark pistol in his fair hand.

Beside them, a stack of white documents stood out starkly in the darkness.
