Chen Xiao snorted and was about to rush over when suddenly, a cold light flashed towards him! Upon closer inspection, he realized it was the metal lighter the other person had been holding...
Chen Xiao instinctively reached out to block it, but in that instant, he seemed to see a disdainful smile on the other person's lips... No!
With his hand already halfway raised, Chen Xiao swiftly changed his position, covering his head with both hands. His body suddenly lunged to the side…
Behind me... Boom!
A loud explosion rang out, and the shockwave even threw Chen Xiao, who was already lying on the ground, into the air!
Bomb?!
The man's lazy laughter rang out: "Not bad. Let's test your quality again."
After saying that, he crossed his hands, holding three or four lighters between his fingers! Then, with a flick of his wrist, several gusts of wind shot towards Chen Xiao!
Chen Xiao forcefully raised his fist and slammed it into the ground. A muffled thud was heard, and the terrace floor cracked instantly from the force of his punch!
Using this force, Chen Xiao's body shot backward several meters. He grabbed the door panel of the balcony door that he had just knocked over and used it as a shield in front of him...
Boom!!!
Amidst the violent explosion and flames, Chen Xiao felt his body being lifted into the air, violently slammed by the shockwave, the thick wooden door in his hand shattering into pieces in the blast…
Bang! His back slammed against the wall, and he felt a burning pain in his arms! Looking down, he saw that his forearms were covered in bloody and mangled wounds!
Chen Xiao looked up and saw the other person's mocking gaze, which ignited a surge of anger within him. He grabbed the railing on the terrace, and with his incredible strength, a tearing and twisting sound was heard. A section of the railing, more than two meters long, was ripped off, along with the steel bars inside!
He weighed it in his hand, then threw it hard at his opponent!
The man, still wearing a mocking smile, didn't dodge and flicked his wrist, tossing out another lighter... The small lighter struck the concrete platform Chen Xiao had thrown at it mid-air. A burst of flame erupted! With a deafening roar, the windows on both sides of the terrace shattered! Stone chips flew everywhere. Smoke filled the air!
The man's voice came through the dust, laced with a sneer: "Useless. A C-rank is a C-rank. With your strength, come challenge me again in ten years."
As he spoke, his figure slowly emerged from the dust, approaching Chen Xiao step by step.
"Don't expect Zhu Rong to help you. One of my secondary abilities is creating environments. I've already set up a maze in the corridor, and Zhu Rong is still going around in circles." This person walked up to Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao was panting, the pain in his arm making it almost impossible for him to lift his hand.
"It must have hurt a lot." The man stood in front of Chen Xiao, looking down at him. "Don't worry, I don't really like killing people. Besides, killing newbies isn't my style."
As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Xiao by the neck with one hand and lifted him up effortlessly!
“Remember my advice, kid! Don’t think that having a little strength makes it easy to get by in this world. Strength is nothing in the superpower world.” As he spoke, he grabbed Chen Xiao by the neck with one hand: “We don’t want to start a war with the service organization. This was just an accident. But our concessions will only happen once! Next time, we won’t hold back. Even respecting the elderly and caring for the young has its limits.”
After saying that, he loosened his grip, and Chen Xiao fell to the ground with a thud.
"You...you..." Chen Xiao raised his head, his eyes fixed on the man with a chilling gaze: "Who are you?"
“I…” The man frowned, glancing at Chen Xiao. “You really are a stubborn newbie. Alright, my name is Qiu Yun, Qiu as in autumn, Yun as in meteorite. If you want revenge, remember to train hard!”
After saying that, he jumped onto the fence in a flash: "Goodbye, little newbie."
Chen Xiao watched him jump off the fence. He was anxious and struggled to his feet. He finally reached the fence, but then everything went black. He swayed a couple of times and collapsed...
He had just torn off a section of the railing in front of him, and as he fell, he tumbled off the terrace...
The hotel was built halfway up the mountain, and the mountain was right below the terrace. Chen Xiao felt dizzy and immediately fell headfirst into the bushes below.
High up the hillside, Chen Xiao smashed through countless tree branches, which then tumbled down the slope with a series of crashing sounds...
Chen Xiao was already injured, and she stumbled and fell all the way down. She crashed through countless flowers and plants, her head bleeding profusely, until she finally passed out completely…
When Chen Xiao woke up again, he looked up and saw that it was already bright daylight. He moved his neck slightly and felt pain all over his body, almost fainting again.
After catching his breath for a while, Chen Xiao managed to stand up with difficulty, and then looked at his clothes. They had turned into something resembling mop strips.
In front of me was a hillside, a dirt slope about three or four meters wide. I was lying in the bushes next to it.
He struggled to climb out, and just as his head emerged, he suddenly heard a rapid, dense sound coming from the left side of the dirt road…
rain?
Uh, no... it's the sound of horses' hooves!
Horseshoes?!
These days, are there still people riding horses around outside?
But what happened next left Chen Xiao speechless!
Looking around, on the left side of the dirt road, a large group of horsemen were rushing towards them in a chaotic manner! All the riders were dressed in ancient soldier's armor, and most of them were wielding gleaming swords, shouting loudly as they spurred their horses on!
What made Chen Xiao even more furious was that he clearly saw long braids trailing behind the heads of these "cavalrymen"! Uh… I remember… only people from the Qing Dynasty dressed like that!
Chen Xiao's face began to turn pale. He finally managed to climb out of the bushes, just as the cavalrymen had already charged up to him. They saw the men rein in their horses, staring at Chen Xiao with wide, dumbfounded eyes, their gazes filled with astonishment and suspicion.
Could it be... could it be that I fell down the mountain like this... and...
He just time-traveled?! Time-traveled to ancient times?!
Chen Xiao felt like he was going crazy. He struggled, but his body wouldn't move. He could only lie there with a bitter smile and manage to ask, "Excuse me... where is this place? What dynasty is it? Who is the current emperor?"
He couldn't help but curse inwardly: Time travel... It's fucking time travel!!
Just as I was about to burst into tears, I heard a furious, almost frantic voice coming from the right!
Chen Xiao turned his head, and on the hillside to his right stood a large group of people, a crane-mounted camera, and camera tracks. Under a parasol, a burly, bearded man in a vest full of pockets, wearing sunglasses and holding a megaphone, jumped up in a rage, yelling at Chen Xiao: "Damn it! Where did this guy come from?! Production crew! Where are the production crew?! What are you all doing?! How could you let unauthorized people in when you were clearing the set?! You son of a bitch! Do you know how much a roll of film costs?! Do you know how much it costs to rent horses for an hour?!!"
