Chapter 67 The Sense of Security Brought by Xue Jing

The cockroach-man's head was smashed by a single punch, and before anyone present could react, it was too late.

The headless cockroach-man actually moved again, stretching out its six legs and reaching out to hug Xue Jing.

"Tsk, it really is a cockroach." Xue Jing frowned, jumped back to dodge the cockroach man's grab and attack, and kicked out in mid-air at the same time.

With the power of twins erupting, it directly kicked off two of the cockroach-man's stacked legs, and the entire torso flew backward.

"Crack!"

Xue Jing didn't stop. Instead, he immediately activated Twin Speed, crouched forward, and quickly flashed in front of the cockroach man. His gaze sharpened, and he directly reached into the gap in the cockroach man's headless body.

Cockroaches are not weak in the head. Even without a head, they will not die. They can survive for at least eight or nine days until they die of thirst and starvation because they cannot eat.

Their real weakness lies in the inferior esophageal ganglion, below the throat and above the chest.

A sticky, disgusting sensation came from his palm. Xue Jing suppressed his nausea and reached out, seemingly grabbing something soft.

The cockroach-man convulsed and struggled frantically, its sharp legs scraping deep, bone-revealing wounds across Xue Jing's body.

Xue Jing hardened his heart, not dodging, but instead mustering all his strength to defend himself. Then, he picked up the soft thing, grabbed the headless cockroach-man, and slammed it into the ground, pinning it to the ground.

In the banquet hall, within the shadow created by the light of the lighter, countless streams of black energy surged toward Xue Jing's palm, and within the cockroach-like body unseen by others, a burst of pitch-black flame erupted.

The cockroach-man's body suddenly swelled up, then its whole body stiffened, its convulsing and struggling movements slowly stopped, and it gradually came to rest.

Pei Youguang held up the lighter and watched Xue Jing's actions. He could vaguely see wisps of black flame emerging from the monster's body, but because it was too dark, he couldn't see it clearly, as if it were an illusion.

He murmured, "Holy crap... Kotozuki In from Yagami?"

As the cockroach-man stopped moving, Xue Jing withdrew his hand from its body.

"The knot... is over?"

Everyone stared blankly at the boy standing in the center of the field, his body covered in wounds and stained with dark green slime.

The terrifying monster, which looked like it had stepped out of a horror movie, was no longer moving and lay dead on the ground.

"It's dead! It's dead!"

Some people cheered excitedly.

Many people still had their faces covered in foul-smelling, dark green slime from the burst heads of the cockroach-like creatures, but they didn't care at all. They were overjoyed to have survived the ordeal and cheered with excitement.

"Who is that person? Which dojo is he a disciple of? I'm going to donate money to his dojo, a whole million bucks!"

"You think you can even come up with a million? I'll donate two million, and I'll even recognize him as my sworn brother. If that's not possible, he can be my godfather!"

"Young Master Pei, Second Young Master Pei, hurry up and take us there so we can meet him!"

Someone saw Pei Youguang standing there in a daze and quickly nudged his shoulder, urging him on.

Li Zhaoquan, Zhang Daqing, and the other surviving disciples of the temple stared blankly at Xue Jing, who was covered in blood.

Zhang Daqing reached out, patted Li Zhaoquan on the shoulder, and gave him a thumbs up.

"Old Li, from now on, I completely admire you."

"You dare to mess with someone like that? From now on, who in the entire martial arts circle of Qingcheng will not praise you, Old Li, for your incredible courage?"

Li Zhaoquan swallowed hard, feeling his legs go weak.

What did he just do with this person?

I offered my hand...

My bones still hurt.

Li Zhaoquan suddenly looked thoughtful.

"Old Zhang, I might have just made a big profit."

Zhang Daqing looked at him with a puzzled expression: "What are you talking about?"

“Look, this Xue… Brother Xue, he’s definitely going to have a bright future, right?” Li Zhaoquan rubbed his chin.

Zhang Daqing rolled his eyes: "Nonsense."

"Then tell me, when I sparred with him just now, wasn't the battle extremely intense, but I was slightly outmatched in the end, a narrow defeat?"

Li Zhaoquan patted his arm.

Zhang Daqing stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "You...you don't actually want to brag about this to others later? Have you no shame?"

Li Zhaoquan chuckled.

……

“Yingyang…” Ye Chenglin walked up to the body of the first victim, his face filled with grief.

As soon as he spoke, everyone was immediately jolted out of their joy at surviving the ordeal and realized that several of their friends had died.

"Why...where did this monster come from? Why did the Ruizhu Hotel suddenly lose power, and even our cell phones stopped working?"

"This must be an organized and premeditated assassination attempt against us. I will definitely make my dad find out the truth!"

Ye Chenglin roared angrily.

He was filled with fear.

Those who attended the banquet today were not ordinary people, yet several of them died. As the organizer of the banquet, he absolutely has to bear some, or even most, of the blame.

Even if his father is a member of the ruling party, it's still a bit too much for him!

He glanced at Pei Tiancheng standing beside him, and a surge of anger rose in his heart.

Damn it, what a big mouth! What 'with me here, nothing will ever happen'? That's utter bullshit!

Recalling how Pei Tiancheng had jumped aside when facing that monster, resulting in the deaths of several people behind him, Ye Chenglin felt a surge of bitterness and anger.

These bodyguards who practice martial arts are all useless... It's a good thing that the boy was there, otherwise everyone would probably be dead today.

Pei Tiancheng hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't say anything, only sighed.

He hadn't expected... it was just a banquet. Even if someone had died the day before, the danger should have been just some ordinary psychopath or something. He thought he could easily control the lightning.

Who would have thought that such a terrifying monster would appear?

At this moment, a tall, slender figure, covered in blood and exuding an inexplicable sense of oppression, walked over.

Everyone looked at him with excitement, wanting to say something, but they were intimidated by the aura emanating from him, and no one could utter a word; there was complete silence.

Xue Jing said in a normal tone, "Everyone."

"Although I have killed that beast, it may not be out of danger yet, so we still need to be careful."

"Based on my speculation, the instantaneous failure of all electrical equipment was due to an electromagnetic pulse phenomenon, which was most likely caused by human intervention."

"Since it was man-made, then that monster must have been deliberately released here, rather than appearing here by accident."

Everyone listened to him quietly, and no one interrupted or disturbed him.

"These matters are for you to investigate yourselves. I am just a security guard and can only do my best to ensure your safety now."

"Let's go, I'll take you away from here."

After saying that, Xue Jing walked towards the door first.

Although he was covered in wounds and blood, the words that came out of his mouth were very convincing to the people who had just witnessed his strength.

Everyone quickly followed.

Now, only by staying by this person's side can they feel a sense of security.

Chapter 68 Great Harvest: My True Dragon is Born Here

Xue Jing had assumed that with the enemy deploying such a large force, including electromagnetic pulses and inhuman monsters, there would likely be some ambushes along the way.

Unexpectedly, the journey was quite peaceful. Under his guidance, everyone safely descended the stairs and arrived at the hotel lobby.

The moment they saw the bright lights, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Never before have they felt so profoundly that humanity truly cannot live without light.

"Is it safe? Is it safe now?"

"Great! Hurry up, I want to go home now and never come back to this hotel again!"

"Wait a minute, we can't be completely sure we're out of danger yet. Let's call our family and the police and ask them to come pick us up!"

Everyone began to discuss it enthusiastically.

The female receptionist, who had been yawning because the hotel hadn't had any guests for the past two days, screamed in fright when she saw a figure covered in blood leading a group of people out of the stairwell.

"what!!"

"Are you calling your mother? Shut up!" Ye Chenglin, who was already in a bad mood, couldn't help but yell at the piercing voice.

After he finished cursing, he seemed to realize something and glanced at Xue Jing with some unease. When he found that the other party didn't seem to care, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Chenglin revealed a strange expression.

It feels like I'm in front of my father...

The female receptionist was so terrified by the scolding that she covered her mouth and trembled.

Xue Jing approached her, smiled, and said softly:

"Excuse me, sister, could I borrow your phone?"

He was covered in wounds and blood, looking truly terrifying. The female receptionist, her face contorted in pain and on the verge of tears, pulled out her phone and handed it to him with trembling hands, as if she had been robbed.

Xue Jing didn't care. After getting the phone, he woke up the screen and dialed the police, thinking to himself:
