"Two great immortals, would you like to get in the car? We're about to leave. There are crowds of people watching the spectacle on the roadside. Do you enjoy free performances?" Zhou Tong kindly reminded them.
"Who cares to talk to him~ you pervert~" Fei Hua snorted coldly, smiled disdainfully, and before Li Yang could speak, she got into the passenger seat and slammed the car door shut with a bang.
"Then let's sit in the back. We're honored guests!" Li Yang said to Zhou Tong with a smile, and then squeezed in. Zhou Tong shook his head slightly, his head throbbing. He deeply regretted bringing these two rich kids into the National Security Bureau; he was so regretful he was practically trembling with embarrassment. Inviting a god is easy, but sending him away is difficult, and getting rid of them now wouldn't be so easy. He could only tough it out.
The car wasn't driving very fast in the city. After all, in Chinese cities these days, it's practically impossible to avoid traffic jams. It would be more like that in cities on the moon or Mars. Unfortunately, Chinese real estate developers don't yet have the financial strength to seize land on Mars and the moon to develop commercial housing.
They arrived in Jiangbei City quickly, the journey going incredibly smoothly. Li Yang and Fei Hua got along peacefully the whole way, neither teasing the other. After entering Jiangbei City, the car headed straight for the Sihai Hotel, where Fan Xian was waiting at the entrance, smiling broadly as he said, "You've finally arrived. The hotel is all booked. We're just waiting for you to check in. There are three suites in total, two people per suite, and one suite for one person. How would you like to choose? Oh, this must be the newly joined Fei Hua, right? Hello, my name is Fan Xian~" Fan Xian's eyes lit up when he saw Fei Hua, and he extended his hand to try and get closer to her.
Feihua rolled her eyes at him and said, "How did you choose this room? Let me tell you, I need a room to myself. I never sleep with anyone!"
"You really have a heavy taste!" Li Yang chuckled.
Fan Xian was taken aback, but he also recovered from the frustration of being criticized earlier. After all, it's easy to imagine how bad it feels to do something good only to be looked down upon and criticized. He chuckled and looked at Fei Hua, as if to say, "I understand."
Fei Hua frowned slightly, knowing what "heavy taste" meant—it wasn't a compliment. Connecting it with what she had just said, she immediately understood Li Yang's meaning. Her face turned bright red, and she angrily shouted, "Li Yang, you bastard scoundrel! I'll kill you!" With that, she summoned her immortal sword and flew straight towards Li Yang.
Li Yang dodged past with incredible speed, but the immortal sword still grazed his nose, almost severing it completely. Luckily, it was a close call, but even so, his nose still ached slightly.
Fan Xian, Zhou Tong, and Shu Yi were also startled and hurriedly shouted, "Don't do it!"
Fei Hua regretted her thrust afterward, but stubborn as a mule, she gritted her teeth and glared at Li Yang, saying, "If you dare provoke me again, I'll chop you in half with one sword!"
Li Yang was secretly furious. "Damn it, what a ruthless little girl! You're so shameless! Can't you use something else? You just pulled out a sword right away, you're a real swordswoman!"
"Yes, I know you'll cleave me in two with one sword. I also know you're a swordsman who has reached an extremely high level, where the sword is within the person, and the person is within the sword, a perfect unity of man and sword. Hehe, once you've reached this level, you're no longer an ordinary person, you're a sword-man, a sword-man, hahaha..." Li Yang laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.
Fan Xian, Zhou Tong, and Shu Yi broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly dodged away, no longer daring to intercept Fei Hua. With their small stature, dealing with ordinary people would be as easy as cutting melons and vegetables, but when facing someone like Fei Hua, it was better to stay away.
Fei Hua's face turned bright red instantly, her eyes blazing with fury as she screamed, "Li Yang, I'll kill you!" The Seven-Colored Rainbow Immortal Sword shot out again, streaking across the sky as it hurtled straight toward Li Yang.
Sand and stones flew everywhere, and the ground immediately cracked open. The hotel's main entrance and other structures also shattered instantly, with stone chips flying everywhere. Fortunately, there weren't many people around at that time, but even so, quite a few people were still stunned by the scene before them.
"This is filming, filming..." Shu Yi hurriedly explained to the people around him.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Yes, that makes sense. Could it be true? Do such people really exist in the world? What a joke! This is a new society now; we can't bring up these feudal dregs, superstitions and supernatural phenomena.
Li Yang sneered, and with a slight thought, his second primordial spirit, without leaving his body, opened its eyes within. It then made a mysterious hand seal with its hands, and the Heavenly Net Blood Transformation Divine Blade trembled slightly before detaching from the second primordial spirit and shooting out. It traveled along the meridians in Li Yang's body, heading straight for the Flying Flower Rainbow Immortal Sword.
But everyone was stunned. They saw Li Yang standing blankly at the hotel entrance, seemingly terrified, unable to dodge, or perhaps unable to dodge at all. The Neon Immortal Sword, carrying a sharp sword aura, descended from the sky, slashing down on him. It was about to strike Li Yang's crown, and blood would immediately splatter everywhere, someone dying on the spot.
"don't want……"
"Stop!"
Shu Yi and Zhou Tong shouted at the same time. Fan Xian was a little stunned. He only had one thought in his mind: So this is how awesome cultivators are! This is the true strength of cultivators! No wonder his master attaches so much importance to cultivation techniques, to the point of being crazy.
"bite--"
"Eek..."
To everyone's astonishment and disbelief, the flying neon sword struck Li Yang squarely on the head, but instead of a bloody massacre, it produced a metallic clang and a strange, soft groan. Upon closer inspection, Li Yang stood firmly, motionless, only a few dozen strands of hair flying from his head. He appeared completely unharmed.
Fei Hua, however, was deathly pale, staring at Li Yang in disbelief. She had regretted her actions the instant the immortal sword struck, as she hadn't truly intended to kill him. She had only recently broken through to the late stage of the Qi Induction realm, barely reaching the level of sword control. Her sword flight was still somewhat forced, and while her speed appeared impressive, it was far slower than Fei Ling's. Because her sword control skills were not yet high and she was somewhat rusty, she hadn't had time to retract her sword after the strike. She was already quite frightened. But the result was surprising; she felt she had struck something extremely hard, with immense power. Even her Neon Immortal Sword was injured. The soft groan she had heard was from her. The damage to her sword had also caused her some harm, though not serious, but it was enough to astonish her.
She retrieved her flying sword, staring wide-eyed at Li Yang in disbelief, and asked, "You, you, what kind of sorcery did you use?"
"Damn it, you're using immortal magic and I'm using demonic magic? What's wrong with your head! Did you expect me to just stand by and watch you strike me down? Little girl, don't show off your little bit of knowledge everywhere. Even if you're from a prestigious family, don't be so arrogant and pretentious. Be careful you don't get struck by lightning!" Li Yang lectured disdainfully.
Chapter 888: I'll kill that bastard!
Fei Hua was initially shocked and impressed, but upon hearing Li Yang's words, she immediately became angry and said, "I don't need you to lecture me~ I don't care~ Let me tell you, I won't lose to you. Sooner or later you'll know how powerful I am. That's enough for today, I won't stoop to your level."
"I'll take care of my own room. In short, I have to sleep in a room by myself," Fei Hua said to Fan Xian.
"Hey, Director Zhou, what do you think?" Fan Xian was just handling the matter and couldn't make the decision, so he hurriedly asked Zhou Tong.
“Feihua, don’t try to make an exception. If you want another room, just book one. You’re an employee of the bureau, how can you spend your own money to do things for the bureau? That’s not in accordance with the rules,” Zhou Tong said as he caught up with her.
"Alright then. I'll follow Director Zhou's arrangements," Fei Hua said, nodding without further insistence.
"Fan Xian, go and open another one," Zhou Tong said, turning around.
“No, open two more rooms. I don’t sleep with anyone either!” Li Yang said provocatively.
But Fei Hua only glared at him and didn't get angry again!
"Damn it, you're all big shots, can't I just be a nobody? Fan Xian, give them each a room." Director Zhou decided not to offend any of them and agreed to their requests.
Fan Xian, with a touch of sarcasm, said, "Are we all stepchildren, forced to share a room? I can't sleep well at night, afraid someone will yell, grind their teeth, or fart!"
"Oh my god, I'm scared too! I don't have that problem!" Shu Yi said anxiously as soon as she heard this.
"You mean I have this problem?" Zhou Tong asked the two men, looking at them with a pained expression.
"I wasn't talking about you!" the two hurriedly explained, not daring to speak of Zhou Tong like that, as he was the bureau chief.
"So you're talking about me?" Wang Gui suddenly appeared at the door and said in a cold voice.
Li Yang laughed and said loudly, "Director Wang, even if you have this problem, I'd still be willing to sleep in the same room as you." Shu Yi and Fan Xian also nodded hurriedly, "Yes, if you're willing, we'd all be willing to sleep in the same room as you."
"Go to hell, you bunch of beasts!" Wang Gui's face flushed slightly as he glared at Li Yang, realizing he had said the wrong thing, but it was too late to argue.
"Alright, alright, enough talk, let's go upstairs. Oh, right, Fan Xian, you're familiar with this place, so could you also take care of what happened at the restaurant entrance?" Zhou Tong interrupted the group and instructed Fan Xian.
"Why is it me again?" Fan Xian muttered in annoyance.
"So you want me to go?" Zhou Tong asked, frowning.
