Between Men

Seeing the out-of-control esper charging towards this side, the store clerks screamed and ran into the room.

Zhao Qingqing and the others turned deathly pale, feeling the imminent arrival of death.

They had thought that the out-of-control man would just pass by here, but it turned out that this place was his target.

"Ah!"

The clerks let out terrified screams.

Their cries for help went unanswered.

Zhao Qingqing and the others deeply regretted coming here.

If not, they would not have encountered this kind of thing, but it was too late to say anything now.

Just when they thought they were going to die,

The out-of-control man suddenly staggered.

There was clearly nothing in front of him, but he couldn't move forward an inch, as if he had hit a wall.

Zhao Qingqing didn't know what was going on, but she immediately called Du Sen.

"Hello, something happened here, come save me!" Zhao Qingqing reported her location.

In about ten seconds, Zhao Xiaofeng brought Du Sen and other members of the Fire Fox team tearing through the air.

They saw the out-of-control man punching and kicking the air wall, but he still couldn't break through.

Killing intent flashed in Du Sen's eyes as raging flames engulfed his body. He walked towards the out-of-control man step by step.

The scorching high temperature cracked and popped the floor tiles.

The out-of-control man sensed the threat but did not retreat. Instead, he directly attacked Du Sen.

His million-jin punch was about to pound Du Sen into meat paste.

But Du Sen's figure flashed, appearing directly behind the out-of-control man. With one punch, he pierced through his chest and grabbed his heart out, burning it into ashes.

Bang!

The corpse of the out-of-control man was burned into flying ash by the clinging flames.

This time, Du Sen was really furious.

So powerful!

Yan Dongxu thought to himself.

Phew!

Du Sen, with extinguished flames, walked into the beauty salon with a gloomy expression.

The air wall that had blocked the out-of-control man also mysteriously disappeared.

"Thank you, Du..." Zhao Qingqing expressed her gratitude to the approaching Du Sen.

But she realized Du Sen was not even looking at her. Instead, he was pointing at Yan Dongxu, "You, come out!"

Du Sen threw down these words and turned to walk out.

Yan Dongxu smiled wryly and got up to follow him out.

"Don't go!" Zhao Qingqing stopped Yan Dongxu, not letting him leave.

She was afraid Du Sen would do something foolish.

"It's fine, just a friendly chat," Yan Dongxu said, pushing away Zhao Qingqing's hand and walking out.

"Captain!" Lin Xia called out. He was familiar with Du Sen's current mood. This was an expression that only emerged when he was furious enough to kill.

"All of you stay put. No one is allowed to follow except Yan Dongxu. Stop anyone who tries."

Du Sen pushed open the door to the emergency stairwell and walked in.

Yan Dongxu followed after him. Du Sen used his pyrokinetic ability to melt the door shut.

"Du Sen! If you dare do anything to Yan Dongxu, I will hate you for the rest of my life! I have nothing to do with him. What's up with you?" Zhao Qingqing yelled, but got no response.

Yan Dongxu and Du Sen stood in the empty corridor.

He took out a pack of cigarettes and grabbed two sticks, tossing one to Du Sen.

"Hey, no light, help me out!" Yan Dongxu said, a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

Whoosh!

A flash of fire lit the cigarette in Yan Dongxu's mouth.

Du Sen leaned against the opposite wall, a lit cigarette in his mouth as he took a drag.

The two men stared at each other without exchanging a word, even after finishing a whole cigarette.

Yan Dongxu took out two more sticks, tossing one over before using the leftover butt to light his.

"When did you awaken?" Du Sen asked, exhaling smoke.

"Not long, two or three days ago?"

Yan Dongxu did not hide it, as he knew Du Sen had already guessed.

"You and Uncle De worked together to take down Tie Que Jitong, right?" Du Sen questioned.

"I guess so. I thought I could take him down myself, but sadly lacked the ability. Uncle De landed the finishing blow. Though he doesn't know I was helping him out," Yan Dongxu casually replied with a smile.

Du Sen's eyelid twitched a couple times. Being able to speak so lightly about killing one of the Ten Coffin Generals took some nerve that few had.

"Spatial ability?" Du Sen raised his brow.

"You guess," Yan Dongxu tossed back.

"Guess? I don't like guessing. I prefer to try it out," Du Sen said sharply as flames erupted from his body, instantly melting the floor. The temperature in the hallway soared.

In the face of Du Sen's pyrokinetic suppression, Yan Dongxu remained undaunted. The scorching heat had no effect whatsoever on him.

He continued leaning against the wall, leisurely smoking his cigarette.

"That all you got?" Yan Dongxu taunted.

Du Sen smiled faintly, a touch of wickedness surfacing. "Punk, I've been wanting to punch you for a long time!"

"Hahaha! Because of Zhao Qingqing?" Yan Dongxu laid it all out plainly.

"That's right!" Du Sen made no attempt to hide his jealous feelings. "Before, when you were an ordinary person, I didn't dare make a move, afraid I'd beat you to death. But now..."

"A fair fight? Loser backs out?" Yan Dongxu showed no fear.

"Fine! We'll do as you say!" Du Sen nodded in agreement.

"Then let's change locations!"

The moment Yan Dongxu finished speaking, he wrapped Du Sen in spatial energy and rapidly teleported through space.

Though each jump only covered around a thousand meters, the frequency was staggering.

In but a few breaths, they appeared on the outskirts of Jiangning City.

Shock that could not be concealed flashed through Du Sen's eyes.

Yan Dongxu's spatial ability had far exceeded his expectations, overbearing and formidable. He had directly wrapped Du Sen in spatial energy and brought them here without him even realizing what was happening.

When he had tried resisting the spatial restraints, he felt like resisting would get him shredded by spatial forces.

"We can start now!" Yan Dongxu said. He was eager for an unrestrained battle to verify his current strength. Du Sen was a good choice.

"You've really surprised me. But first, thanks for protecting Zhao Qingqing today," Du Sen shook his head.

"I just did what I should've. If you didn't come, that out-of-control man would still be dead. Enough of the nagging, let's fight!" Yan Dongxu said impatiently.

"Hahahaha!" Du Sen laughed angrily. This brat truly had no clue how out of his depth he was.

"Did you really think my strength was limited to what I showed at the hospital?" Du Sen said coldly.

As he spoke, the flames around Du Sen erupted violently. The ground instantly melted. His entire being was like a small sun, emanating scorching brilliance.

"This is..." Yan Dongxu was dumbfounded. Even his spatial control got distorted by the heat.

Now he understood why Du Sen had said what he did.

At the hospital, Du Sen had not gone all out, likely afraid that his ability would harm the people inside.

If he did cut loose with everything he had, Duke of Thousand Faces probably wouldn't remain so cheeky.

"You freak!" Yan Dongxu said darkly.

The land within a kilometer had been burnt into magma. If Du Sen had unleashed himself like this back in the hospital, the whole building would have collapsed.

Yan Dongxu used spatial forces to shield himself from the intense heat, suspended in midair.

"Take this!"

Yan Dongxu's eyes turned silver as he manipulated spatial forces to entangle Du Sen.
