Chinese Superman

Gu Zhiqi lifted him from the driver's seat with one hand, as easily as lifting a chick, and then casually tossed him into the back seat, saying indifferently, "It's a good thing it's a four-seater, otherwise you would have to sleep in the trunk."

The entire set of movements was fluid and crisp, taking only a few seconds from start to finish.

Xia Xinghan watched from the side, blinking repeatedly.

This Senior Sister Gu... is kind of... likable!

Immediately afterwards, Gu Zhi Qiu used one hand to reach the car door and flipped over, gracefully hurdling into the driver's seat.

She adjusted the seat and rearview mirrors, gripped the steering wheel, and started the engine.

The sports car immediately let out a deep roar.

Gu Zhi Qiu turned her head to look at Xia Xing Han, who was still standing by the roadside, her cold eyes showing no emotion: "Get in the car. What are you still standing there for?"

"Oh, here it comes."

Xia Xinghan responded, and his small body actually lifted into the air, landing steadily in the passenger seat, sitting down, and fastening his seatbelt.

You have Dongguan boy hurdles, mine isn't bad either.

Gu Zhi Qiu shook his head, a faint smile unconsciously appearing on his lips. He turned the steering wheel, made a U-turn, and stepped on the gas. The red BMW Z4 shot off like a wild horse, speeding down the winding mountain road.

The engine roared, and the mountain wind howled.

Xia Xinghan looked out the window at the rapidly receding snow-covered mountains and forests.

Very beautiful.

But there seemed to be figures moving around.

After driving for a while, Gu Zhi Qiu suddenly spoke, his voice still calm, but with a hint of coldness that was hard to detect: "We're being followed."

"Yes, I know." Xia Xinghan nodded.

He had already noticed it.

Not long after they left the perimeter of the base, a dozen or so menacing voices could be heard faintly echoing in the distant mountains and forests.

"Buzzing—"

Almost as soon as Gu Zhiqi finished speaking, four black rotary-wing drones suddenly flew out from the dense forest on both sides of the road, which was covered with thick snow.

They moved at incredible speed, forming an encirclement, and quickly ascended above the BMW Z4, with cameras and gun barrels all aimed at the speeding sports car.

Xia Xinghan remained calm and reached into the pocket of his down jacket, pulling out a few pine nuts he had picked up earlier.

Pick one up and flick it with your finger!

"Whoosh—smack!"

A pine nut, like a bullet fired from a gun, precisely struck the center of a drone's rotor.

The drone shuddered violently, emitted black smoke, and spun as it crashed onto the ground with a thud, scattering its parts everywhere.

Immediately afterwards, with two "whoosh" sounds, two more pine nuts flew out.

The other two drones exploded, turning into two bursts of fire and fragments.

The last drone seemed to sense something was wrong and tried to climb up to escape, but it still couldn't escape Xia Xinghan's precise shooting.

"boom"

The fourth drone was also declared unusable.

"What a clean and efficient attack!"

Gu Zhiqi caught a glimpse of Xia Xinghan's actions out of the corner of her eye, and her pupils contracted slightly.

The accuracy and power were astonishing.

but……

Gu Zhi Qiu was even more curious about what else Xia Xing Han had in his pocket!

A fleeting thought crossed Gu Zhi Qiu's mind, but he quickly regained focus. His left hand remained on the steering wheel, while his right hand made a subtle gesture towards the mountains and forests beside him.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A dull thud was followed by faint screams.

Suddenly, several huge, irregularly shaped cone-shaped rocks in the snow forest tilted and rose up without warning, snow flew up, branches flew everywhere, and several figures were knocked over by the rocks, their bones broken, somersaulting in mid-air before crashing heavily to the ground.

Seeing this, Xia Xinghan looked at Gu Zhiqi and asked curiously, "Senior Sister, are you an earth-type talent user?"

"no."

Gu Zhiqi kept his eyes straight ahead, maneuvering the vehicle through the corner with a smooth drift, and explained in a calm tone: "Manipulating earth and rocks is the mysterious power of the 'Jade-Handled Iron Sword'."

As soon as she finished speaking, at the end of the bend ahead, on a roadside shoulder in a blind spot, a figure in snow camouflage suddenly stood up, carrying a single-soldier rocket launcher on his shoulder!

A flash of light appeared at the muzzle, and a rocket, trailing a scorching tail flame, hurtled straight towards us!

Gu Zhiqi remained expressionless. He gently clenched his five fingers around the speeding rocket with his free right hand, then flicked it outwards.

A strange thing happened.

The high-speed rocket seemed to have hit an invisible wall in the air, its trajectory suddenly deflected by 180 degrees, and it reflected back along the original path at an even faster speed than it had come from!

"Boom—"

A deafening explosion erupted at the end of the bend, sending flames and smoke billowing into the air. The figure carrying the rocket launcher was swallowed up before he could even scream.

Gu Zhiqi continued, "...The other relic, the 'Spring and Autumn Period Gold-Handled Iron Sword,' is mainly mysterious in its ability to manipulate metal."

Xia Xinghan suddenly realized.

The jade hilt controls jade, and the gold hilt controls metal. The mysterious powers of these two legendary swords complement each other, and Gu Zhi Qiu uses them with consummate skill, making them both convenient and practical.

"This is a tricky idea! Let's all work together!"

A sharp shout came from above.

On the steep hillside beside the highway, three agile figures dressed in gray combat uniforms suddenly leaped down, their knives flashing, and with a sharp whooshing sound, they rushed straight at the speeding sports car!

They were clearly cultivators, possessing speed and strength far exceeding that of ordinary people. Their perfect coordination blocked the vehicle's forward and backward routes.

Gu Zhi Qiu didn't even look up at the three people.

She waved her right hand again, as if fanning a fly from a distance.

"call--"

A massive slab of rock, half a meter thick, carrying remnants of snow, roared out of the forest as if it had been lifted up by an invisible giant hand and slammed horizontally!

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The three menacing attackers, knives and all, were struck solidly by the massive rock slab. They were sent flying backward at an even greater speed than when they jumped, crashing heavily into the snow and bushes on the hillside, where they lay motionless.

After doing all this, Gu Zhi Qiu slightly turned her head and glanced at Xia Xing Han, whose expression remained calm throughout the passenger seat. Her cool voice betrayed no emotion:

"Junior brother, it seems there are... quite a few people eyeing you."

Xia Xinghan scratched his head: "Maybe it's because I'm cute?"

"Senior sister, if nothing unexpected happens, this is just an appetizer. What are a few small fish and shrimp? There are bigger ones to come."

"Then something unexpected would be best... I don't have enough spiritual energy to squander."

Gu Zhi Qiu, unusually humorous, refocused his gaze on what lay ahead.

"Hold on tight."

Before she finished speaking, she floored the accelerator with her right foot!

The modified high-performance engine of this sports car immediately unleashed a wild roar, and the tachometer needle soared wildly!

Instantly, the entire vehicle seemed to be injected with a powerful stimulant, reaching its maximum speed in an instant, transforming into a red lightning bolt, breaking through the cold air, and speeding down the winding mountain road!

The intense push-back sensation pressed Xia Xinghan firmly into the seat, blurring the scenery on both sides into flowing bands of color.

The wind howled as it rushed into the convertible, whipping his bangs and red scarf wildly backward.

In just a few breaths, they had left far behind any potential ambushes and pursuers behind them, and drove off the winding mountain road completely.
