Xu Mo unexpectedly punched Han Fei out of the blue.
This was something no one had expected.
The investigation team of four were stunned.
The three helpers behind Xu Mo plus the hostage were also stunned.
Even the livestream viewers were shocked.
"What the hell! Xu Mo dares to get violent?? Is he crazy?!"
"I'm new here and don't really understand the situation. I want to ask...has Xu Mo always been this brave?"
"Of course! Xu Mo is super brave! He has robbed banks before, beating someone up is nothing."
"Hahahaha, look at Han Fei's expression, he looks completely stunned. I guess he would never have imagined Xu Mo would dare to hit him."
"Forget Han Fei, who the hell could have imagined Xu Mo would attack without saying a word?"
...
At this time, Han Fei's expression was extremely interesting.
He looked like he wanted to write "I can't believe this" on his face.
That Xu Mo would throw a punch at him the moment they met face-to-face was something he could never have imagined.
But what he couldn't imagine even more was still to come...
Seeing Han Fei get punched and standing there stunned for a few seconds, Chen Ke who was next to him suddenly moved.
He charged at Xu Mo.
"What the hell, I see you've eaten the gallbladder of a leopard!"
Among the investigation team of four, Chen Ke was undoubtedly the fighting expert.
Free combat, grappling, these were all his specialties.
Most people wouldn't last five rounds in his hands.
Those slightly more skilled at best could only hold up for about ten rounds.
In Chen Ke's opinion, Xu Mo's group posed almost no threat.
If there was any threat, it would come from Xu Mo.
After all, Xu Mo was a guy.
Even if he didn't know any fighting techniques, he must have some strength.
Of course, this bit of threat could be ignored.
Because no matter how strong an ordinary person is, they can't compete with him who is skilled at free combat and grappling.
As for the four girls behind Xu Mo, Chen Ke didn't even consider them a threat.
They are girls. At most they would know some self defense moves for women, fancy punches and kicks.
Before Chen Ke could rush at Xu Mo with his fist raised.
Xu Mo had already guessed this guy would definitely attack him.
So he prepared in advance. Before Chen Ke could get to him, he kicked towards Chen Ke's crotch.
The legendary deadly kick to the privates.
Chen Ke was trained after all. He shifted his body and avoided Xu Mo’s kick.
But Xu Mo’s kick completely pissed Chen Ke off.
If he hadn't dodged it just now, his ability to continue the family line would have become a problem!
"Sneak attack, despicable move...all you know are dirty tricks. Watch me teach you a lesson today!", Chen Ke's fists made cracking sounds.
Xu Mo shrugged, "What move I use is none of your business. As long as it works."
Xu Mo wouldn't have said this ordinarily.
But now that he said it, Chen Ke became even more furious.
A sneak attack yet justified? A despicable move yet fair and upright?
Without saying a word, he raised his leg, about to kick Xu Mo.
But just then.
Li Jiaxin who was standing behind Xu Mo bit her teeth suddenly. She moved forward to face Chen Ke who was launching an attack, “Oh whatever, I’ll just attack a cop then!”
Seeing this, Xu Mo thought to himself, finally got Li Jiaxin on his pirate ship...I mean, on his battleship!
He then took a few steps back, smiling at Chen Ke while making a throat slitting motion with his hand.
Chen Ke was puzzled.
What does the throat slitting gesture mean?
Does he think this girl who looks completely harmless can beat me?
Dream on!
He decided to subdue her first without hurting Li Jiaxin, then go beat up Xu Mo.
"Even divine forces can’t save you now, I tell you!”
...
The next second.
Chen Ke was lying face down on the ground.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
He actually got taken down by a "completely harmless" girl? !
Moreover, taken down instantly!
Didn't even last one round against her!
His prided free combat and grappling skills were completely useless.
After taking Chen Ke down.
Li Jiaxin pressed the back of his neck.
Chen Ke immediately fainted.
Without any pause, Li Jiaxin then walked towards the remaining three of the investigation team.
"What are you doing? Do you know what you are doing now? You are assaulting police officers!", Li Chen panicked.
Even the brute Chen Ke was no match for this girl, he stood even less of a chance!
Originally, Li Chen wanted to scare Li Jiaxin with the crime of "assaulting police officers".
But after he uttered these two words.
Li Jiaxin's eyes lit up.
She looked...even more excited?
"Assaulting officers?", Li Jiaxin said excitedly, "How thrilling!"
After saying that, she chopped Li Chen's neck with the knife-hand strike.
The latter's eyes rolled back and he fainted instantly.
Next, Li Jiaxin did the same maneuver and knocked Han Fei unconscious with a knife-hand.
At this point, among the investigation team of four, only Shen Manyi was still standing.
Shen Manyi stared wide-eyed at Li Jiaxin.
She didn't expect this beautiful girl to be so ruthless.
She single-handedly took down Li Chen, Han Fei and Chen Ke!
Li Jiaxin also glanced at Shen Manyi, but did not make a move against her.
Instead, she looked towards Xu Mo.
"Let's not knock this one unconscious. Should we find some rope and tie her up instead?", Li Jiaxin asked Xu Mo.
Rope? Tie up?
This...
Xu Mo looked at Li Jiaxin with a complex expression, then turned to look at Shen Manyi again.
For some reason, he felt like he had seen this plot somewhere before.
The pretty prosecutor comes to catch the villain but ends up being tied up by the bandits instead...
After rummaging around at home for a while.
An Youyi found two large rolls of transparent tape.
"No ropes at home. Can we wrap her hands up tightly with tape instead?"
She paused, seemingly recalling something. Then she spoke again,
"Do we need to stuff something in her mouth too? That's what they always do in movies."
Xu Mo looked at An Youyi in astonishment.
Stuff her mouth? With what? What movies have you been watching??
For a moment, he couldn't tell.
Was An Youyi kidding or serious?
If she was kidding...then her level of humor was pretty advanced!
After staring blankly for a few seconds, Xu Mo shook his head. "No need to gag her mouth. Just tie her hands behind her back with tape. It’ll be hard for them to call for help if we seal their mouths too."
Saying so, he took the tape from An Youyi's hands.
He then wrapped Shen Manyi's hands behind her back with the tape.
It had to be said, this process was quite fun!
Knowing that resistance was futile with her hands being bound, Shen Manyi did not struggle.
She was preserving her strength for later when she tried to break free.
After wrapping up Shen Manyi’s hands,
Xu Mo walked towards Han Fei and the other three with the tape. He proceeded to wrap all three of their hands behind their backs as well.
With everything done, Xu Mo stopped paying attention to the investigation team of four.
Instead, he went on disguising himself...

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.

lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...

ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
