"act recklessly."

Chen Huo sneered.

He didn't waste time asking about the man's background; he figured he could interrogate him after he captured him.

As a legendary healer, he has countless ways to inflict unbearable pain, making people wish they were dead, and he is not afraid that this person will not confess.

He also wanted to use this person as a practice subject, and it would be even better if he could put some pressure on him.

Perhaps this opportunity will allow me to break through to a higher level.

However, he was disappointed.

"Too slow. Is this all you've got? You can't even hit me."

Chen Huo easily dodged the middle-aged man's attack, his brows furrowed slightly, his words filled with disappointment.

Zheng Qin's heart sank upon seeing this.

He had used ninety percent of his strength in that attack, yet Chen Huo still managed to dodge it with ease.

Now he completely abandoned any sense of contempt, frantically circulating his inner energy, pushing his speed and power to the limit, and attacking Chen Huo with the most ruthless moves.

"this one?"

"It's still too slow."

"You probably haven't been at the second level of the Emperor Realm for very long, have you?"

Chen Huo dodged Zheng Qin's attacks time and time again, shook his head slightly, and said with some disappointment.

An attack of this magnitude brings no pressure whatsoever; it's meaningless to him and a complete waste of time.

Zheng Qin was both anxious and angry. Chen Huo was right. He had indeed just broken through to the second level of the Emperor Realm not long ago. Among experts at this level, his strength was indeed not that strong.

But no matter what, they shouldn't have been unable to even encounter Chen Huo. He realized that both the Li family head and himself had seriously underestimated Chen Huo's strength.

This kind of fighting isn't going to work.

A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and a dagger slid from his sleeve into his palm, swiftly slashing towards Chen Huo's neck.

"A trivial skill."

Chen Huo sneered, his inner force suddenly erupted, and he struck Zheng Qin's wrist with lightning speed.

Snapped.

The dagger was knocked away.

If he hadn't wanted to question him, he would have killed Zheng Qin by now. He had lost his patience and was ready to take him down directly.

Previously, Chen Huo had been dodging, but this was the first time he had truly made a move, and Zheng Qin felt as if his entire wrist was about to break.

Unable to even hold a dagger, he was defeated in a single exchange, and Zheng Qin completely lost the courage to continue fighting.

He was also an extremely decisive person. Without saying a word, he turned and ran, using all his strength.

"Trying to run? Not so easy."

Chen Huo snorted coldly, suddenly accelerated, and attacked Zheng Qin's back. The sound of the attack sending chills down Zheng Qin's spine.

"ha!"

Zheng Qin suddenly turned around and crossed his arms in a defensive stance. The next moment, he felt a sharp pain in his arms, as if his bones were about to break.

Before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen and was lifted off the ground.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a sharp pain on his scalp and saw Chen Huo grab his hair and throw him to the ground.

boom!

Dust and smoke rose from the ground.

Zheng Qin let out a scream, clutching his abdomen and rolling on the ground, his eyes filled with despair and resentment.

"You've destroyed my dantian!"

"How cruel!"

"You'll die a horrible death!"

"..."

Chen Huo's kick just now landed on his lower abdomen, specifically the dantian area. Not only did it send him flying off the ground, but it also channeled pure yang energy into his dantian, shattering it.

The uncontrolled inner force of a second-level Emperor Realm expert was currently raging and rampaging within his body, as if countless knives were stirring it.

pain!

It hurts so much!

It was worse than death.

"A murderer will always be killed. Don't you understand this principle? Tell me who sent you, and I can end your suffering."

"Haha... I'm a cripple anyway, what am I afraid of? I'd rather die than tell you!"

Zheng Qin laughed hysterically, saying that for him, losing his strength and becoming an ordinary person was worse than death.

He couldn't handle such a huge drop in status.

"Fine, I'll grant your wish."

Chen Huo didn't want to ask any more questions and was about to kill him when two voices suddenly came from behind him.

"What are you doing?!"

"Is this the place for you to fight? Stop it right now!"

Fighting?

Chen Huo turned around and saw two police officers wearing body cameras walking towards him with angry expressions.

"You're lucky to be alive."

Chen Huo snorted coldly. He didn't kill anyone in front of the police. There were ordinary people nearby who had gathered to watch the commotion. It would be bad if they saw him.

The police quickly discovered that the gunman was armed, and the situation became serious. As a law-abiding citizen, Chen Huo went back to the police station with them to assist in the investigation.

Jiang Aiwei and her driver naturally had to go along to assist with the investigation, and they rode in police cars.

Jiang Aiwei was somewhat worried.

"The Li family is very powerful in the capital. There may be trouble ahead. You must remain restrained."

Chen Huo frowned upon hearing this. He understood Jiang Aiwei's meaning; she was afraid that the Li family had connections in the police station and would deliberately make things difficult for him.

Jiang Aiwei was worried that he would act impulsively and cause trouble. If he made a move at the police station, things would get out of control.

At this point, the driver spoke up.

"Young Master, I already reported to Yu Ji when you mentioned the past. Things shouldn't be that bad."

Chen Huo nodded upon hearing this.

That would be best. He didn't want to cause trouble at the police station, but he felt that the police station probably wasn't qualified to investigate the matter.

After all, the Li family is involved, and those in power couldn't possibly be unaware of this matter. No matter how powerful the Li family is, they can't compare to a powerful state apparatus.

Just as he expected, when the group arrived at the police station and got out of the car, they were taken over by several men in black suits.

They arrived in a black minivan, and the person in the lead was smiling and exceptionally polite.

"We are from the special investigation team. Mr. Chen, Ms. Jiang, please get in the car. We need to understand some things."

The other party was polite, and Chen Huo was not an unreasonable person, so he took Jiang Aiwei into the car to cooperate with their work.

Soon the car arrived at an old building without a sign. The driver was taken away for questioning, while Chen Huo and Jiang Aiwei were taken to a room on the second floor.

Inside sat a middle-aged man. Chen Huo glanced at him and felt that he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

"Dr. Chen, it's a pleasure to meet you! My name is Zhou Qun. If it weren't for you today, my father might really be gone!"

The middle-aged man quickly stood up as he spoke, his face full of gratitude, and strode over to extend his hand.

Chen Huo suddenly realized the truth.

No wonder he looked familiar; it turns out this middle-aged man looks a lot like the old man named Zhou Jianguo whom he treated this morning.

Zhou Jianguo's identity is not simple, and his son Zhou Qun is obviously not simple either, but so far they seem to be very friendly.

Chen Huo reached out and shook hands with him, smiling slightly as he said, "It was just a favor, nothing to mention. Let's talk about what happened today."

Treating the sick and saving lives is a trivial matter for Chen Huo; he just wants to cooperate with the investigation as soon as possible.

Zhou Qun nodded upon hearing this.

"Okay. Please tell me what happened, Dr. Chen. We'll just make a note of it. It's no trouble at all."
