"You little policewoman know quite a lot," the sallow-faced man in the lead said, his voice hoarse.

"You've been targeting us foreign organizations for years. Today, the three of us brothers will make you regret it!"

The policewoman's expression changed.

Being targeted by this kind of person is not a pleasant feeling.

She knew these organizations operated in a lawless and inhumane manner.

I was just doing my duty, but once I fell into their hands, my fate was predictable.

However, she wouldn't regret it if something unexpected happened during the operation.

The policewoman's hand quietly reached under her skirt, where a pistol was strapped.

She was prepared to fight to the death until her teammates arrived.

If she really couldn't hold on any longer, this gun would be her last resort to preserve her innocence.

"Have you had enough?" a calm voice suddenly interrupted. "A bunch of stupid, pretentious street thugs, actually pretending to be gangsters and trying to kill you to cover it up?"

After he finished speaking, the corridor fell silent for a moment.

The three assassins and the policewoman all looked at Ye An as if he were an idiot.

Ye An ignored their gazes and instead looked at the woman in front of him with great interest, his hand naturally around her waist.

"Miss, your cosplay is really good, it looks great."

The policewoman was completely dumbfounded.

What's wrong with this person?

Is there something wrong with your brain?

She just said it very clearly: that's the Misty Rain Pavilion!

They are a ruthless foreign assassin organization!

"Kid, don't be so stubborn... you'll regret it." The leader of the assassins said, each word distinct, his facial muscles twitching. "I was going to let you go, but now... you've asked for it!"

Another assassin sneered, "Didn't you hear what this young policewoman said? We're an overseas assassin organization. We won't let you go just because you're pretending to be stupid."

Only the last assassin sensed something was amiss. He had clearly seen that the attacks from the three brothers earlier did not seem to have been blocked by this policewoman. Could it be that this kid really had some special skills?

"Hehe, enough talk, let's bring it on," Ye An replied casually.

His attention wasn't actually on those three people at all.

The celestial being hiding in the shadows was the one he truly cared about.

In his view, these three guys who jumped out were no different from children playing house.

We need to get rid of it quickly, so it doesn't get in the way.

"court death!"

The three were completely enraged by Ye An's nonchalant attitude. With a low shout, they pounced on him at the same time!

However, what happened the next second made the policewoman's eyes widen.

She didn't even see how Ye An moved.

I saw him raise his hand, as if swatting a fly, and slash the back of the neck of the first assassin who rushed up.

The man didn't utter a sound and fell straight down.

Ye An took another step forward, dodged the second man's fist by turning to the side, and then nudged him in the chest with his elbow.

The second person also collapsed, clutching his chest, his face turning a deep purplish-red, trying to scream but unable to.

The last person saw his two companions fall to the ground instantly and tried to stop in his tracks, but it was too late.

Ye An kicked him in the knee.

A crisp "snap" sounded.

The third person hugged his leg and rolled around on the ground.

The entire process takes no more than three seconds.

The corridor fell silent again, save for the suppressed groans of the last assassin on the floor.

Ye An clapped his hands, as if he had only done a trivial little thing.

He looked down at the three men lying on the ground and said to the policewoman who was completely stunned, "I told you, they're just a bunch of useless street thugs, they can't even beat me by themselves."

The policewoman's mind went blank.

What's going on?

The assassins from Yanyu Tower... is that all?

How come it really is almost like a street brawl?

Were these people not assassins, but actors hired by this man? Putting on a show for himself?

But the murderous aura just now, and the sound of the man's leg breaking on the ground, didn't seem fake.

She shook her head to clear her mind.

No matter what, let's get them under control first.

She strode forward, took out three specially made handcuffs from her handbag, and skillfully handcuffed all three unconscious people on the ground.

After doing all this, she straightened up, wanting to turn around and ask Ye An what exactly happened.

But when she turned around, there was nothing behind her.

The man who was just standing there has vanished without a trace.

Where are they?

……

Ye An's figure disappeared at the end of the corridor.

He didn't go back to his room or leave the hotel. Instead, he leisurely walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.

The elevator doors closed, shutting out everything outside.

He could feel that fireball-like aura was constantly locking onto him.

From the moment he took down the three assassins, his aura became unstable.

There was surprise, scrutiny, and a well-hidden murderous intent.

Ye An's goal was simple.

The auction hall was packed with ordinary people.

Even the slightest aftershock of a battle at the Celestial level would be enough to indiscriminately kill everyone present.

He didn't want to get into that kind of trouble.

Therefore, we need to find a more open place and finish this quickly.

"bite."

The elevator reached the top floor.

This is an open-air bar, and since it's still early, there aren't many people here.

Ye An walked straight through the bar, came to the railing, and then stepped over it.

His body did not fall, but rather seemed to be stepping on invisible steps, walking step by step from a height of 100 meters towards the distant Huangpu River.

In another room of the hotel.

A Western man wearing a bathrobe and with striking white hair is standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a glass of red wine.

He smiled when he saw Ye An walk out of the hotel and head straight towards the Bund.

"Interesting, they actually found me."

He put down his wine glass, slowly straightened his bathrobe, and then vanished from the window in a flash.

……

The Bund.

The riverbank at night is bustling with tourists and brightly lit.

A river breeze was blowing, carrying a hint of coolness.

Ye An stood by the railing on the riverbank, watching the tourist boats coming and going on the river, just like an ordinary tourist.

A few seconds later, the white-haired man appeared not far behind him.

The man did not make a move immediately, but instead observed Ye An's back with great interest.

"I don't understand," the man said, speaking fluent Chinese. "Why did the Jiang family specifically request that 'Destiny' send so many people to deal with you?"

"A person who can subdue three martial arts masters in an instant is indeed impressive, but... he seems to be far from that level."

In his view, this mission was a complete waste of his talents.

Ye An turned around.

He had no interest in the "Destiny" organization, nor did he want to know what kind of deal the Jiang family had with them.

All he knew was that the person in front of him had come to kill him.

Since they are enemies, then let's just kill them.

"Let's get started, my time is precious," Ye An said.

After saying that, he took a step back and stepped directly onto the surface of the Huangpu River.

The river water only rippled slightly, and he stood there steadily.

The white-haired man's expression finally changed slightly as he watched this scene.

He took a step forward and stood on the river as well, facing Ye An from afar.

Beneath their feet, the river flowed swiftly, and above them stretched the most dazzling night view of Shanghai.

This amazing scene was quickly discovered by tourists on the shore.

"Mommy, look! Those two people are standing on the water!" A little girl with pigtails pointed at the river and exclaimed in surprise.

Her mother looked in the direction she was pointing and froze.

"What is that? A holographic projection? Or are they filming a movie?"

"Quick, take a picture! What kind of special effects are these? They're amazing!"

More and more people noticed the two people on the river and took out their phones to take pictures and videos.

A murmur of surprise and discussion arose from the crowd.

On the river.

The white-haired man paid no attention to the commotion on the shore. He looked at Ye An with a playful, cat-and-mouse expression.

"Since you're in such a hurry to die, then I'll grant your wish."

He extended his right hand, palm facing up.

A ball of crimson flame appeared out of nowhere, burning fiercely and turning half of his face bright red.

The temperature of the river surface rose considerably because of the appearance of this ball of flame.

"Wow! Fireworks!" The little girl on the shore was even more excited, clapping her hands and shouting.

Although the adults found it strange, they all watched with a sense of excitement, looking forward to the "performance" to come.

Some people have even started calling the police, saying that there are dangerous magic shows being performed on the Bund.

The white-haired man was very pleased with the feeling of being the center of attention.

He could almost see that in the next second, that arrogant young man from the East would be reduced to ashes by his "Prometheusian fire," and the mortals on the shore would worship him for his miracle.

With a flick of his arm, he hurled the flame in his hand!

The flames stretched in the air, transforming into a fiery serpent over three zhang long, its tongue flicking and carrying scorching heat waves as it fiercely pounced towards Ye An!

However, what happened next was something no one could have predicted.

The seemingly ferocious fiery serpent suddenly stopped when it reached Ye An.

Its massive body circled once in the air, and then...

Like a docile kitten, it obediently pounced into Ye An's arms.

Ye An extended his hand.

He thus gathered all the vast flames into his hands.

There was no explosion, no burns, and not even a piece of his clothing caught fire.

Ye An could feel a surge of pure fire energy flowing into his body through his arm.

On the shore, everyone was stunned.

"This...this is also part of the performance?"

"How come...it seems like he sucked that fire serpent into him?"

"My God, what's the working principle behind this?"
