This villain is too popular.

Chapter 146 The 'White Tiger' from Martial Arts Capital

[Inside an unknown villa in the Upper City, the steam city]

"I'm sorry, I won't do it again next time."

"I was just following orders. They were very dissatisfied with your operation, which is why they asked me to spread some negative news about your group."

"Oh? I see."

Yu Qianxia squatted on the ground, pinching her brow as if she had a headache.

Her fluffy black short hair fell over her shoulders, and a small tuft of white hair on her forehead reflected a stark whiteness that stood out starkly against the surrounding black hair under the dim lights of the villa.

Looking at the guy in front of him, whose face was bruised and swollen from his beating, his eyes filled with fear and cowardice.

Yu Qianxia scoffed, then spat out the toothpick she was biting and grabbed the other person's collar.

"So, because of this trivial matter, do you know what our Qianxia Group's stock has looked like these past few days?!"

"It only went up by two percent! You know, we were supposed to have gotten a three percent increase!"

"How are you and the guys behind you going to make up for that one percent shortfall, huh?"

Amidst the shouts, a semi-transparent white tiger phantom suddenly rose up behind Yu Qianxia.

The white tiger's eyes were cold, and it had wings growing on its back.

Within the gaping maw, one could even vaguely see condensed stellar energy smoke.

One glance was enough to make this entrepreneur from the steam city so frightened that his legs went weak and he almost wet his pants.

Seeing the other party's cowardly appearance, Yu Qianxia suddenly felt a little bored.

She loosened her grip on the other person's collar, covered the back of her neck with her hand, twisted her neck, and then, with a series of 'cracks,' stretched her bones.

Snapped!
Yu Qianxia tossed her suit jacket over her shoulder, revealing a unique black and white tattoo on her lower abdomen.

That is a unique martial arts mark of the Martial Arts Capital.

She looked down at the steam-powered entrepreneur slumped on the ground, then turned and walked out of the villa.

"Go back and tell them that our Qianxia Group has its own operating principles, and occasional loss of goods is just a normal phenomenon."

"I will refund the shipping costs that should be refunded to them, but they also need to compensate our group for the reputational damage this time."

She tilted her head and smiled, her white hair slipping down her forehead and covering half of her eye.

"It's not much, just something equivalent to one percent of our group's total shares."

"If they are unwilling, they will be like this wall."

Yu Qianxia suddenly stopped and then punched the wall next to her.

Click!

Amidst the crisp sound of shattering bricks, the villa wall struck by Yu Qianxia first cracked with spiderweb-like fissures.

Then, like falling dominoes, these cracks spread and proliferated at a visible speed, eventually covering half of the villa.

boom!
The moment Yu Qianxia stepped out of the villa's gate, half of the villa turned to dust in the smoke.

Outside the villa, Chen Kong looked at the remaining half of the villa wall and its neat, smooth cut surface, and his Adam's apple bobbed unconsciously.

Just how incredibly precise was this woman's control over her body and stellar energy?

It's amazing that it can create an effect similar to a 'sword slash' with its fists.

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes...

Chen Kong could never have imagined that the villa ruins, which looked like they had been sliced ​​into a cake with a smooth cut, were the result of someone's punch.

This is a terrifying realm that even the most naive fantasies cannot comprehend.

In a daze, Chen Kong suddenly felt that as one of the Children of the Stars, he didn't seem to be much more special than the people outside. Because whether it was the Fifth Division Captain Shui Mo not long ago, or Yu Qianxia now.

They are all traditional Star Envoys who only possess Star Source.

Yet these traditional Star Envoys displayed an almost terrifying level of absolute power.

Binary stars are indeed special.

But for true monsters like Yu Qianxia and Shuimo, does having one more or one less star core really matter?
Thinking of this, Chen Kong's eyes became somewhat confused.

As Yu Qianxia passed by him and Liu Ma, she seemed to notice Chen Kong's thoughts.

So he said very impatiently, "I'm leaving."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Qianxia walked straight past Liu Ma and Chen Kong, and surrounded by her underlings, she sat expressionlessly into the luxurious extended hovercar.

Everyone thought that Yu Qianxia was able to achieve what she had today because of her outstanding martial arts talent.

But only she knows what she has sacrificed to live up to this talent.

Having talent is one thing.

Not wasting talent, that's another matter.

But it seems that Liu Ma and Chen Kong, two guys with enormous potential within their bodies, haven't realized this yet.

After Liu Ma and Chen Kong got back into the car, the hovercraft fleet representing Qianxia Group started up again.

This time, however, they were not heading towards the upper city of the Steam City.

Instead, it's the lower city of the steam city—Rusty Iron Hell.

To the surprise of the viewers, after the Chika Group's convoy disappeared into the steam clouds of the Upper and Lower Cities...

The steam-powered entrepreneur, who had initially appeared incredibly timid and collapsed to the ground at Yu Qianxia's mere intimidation, calmly stood up.

He dusted himself off, silently picked up the data terminal in his hand, and made a call to a mysterious person.

Shortly after, a cold, mechanical voice came from the other end of the data terminal.

"What was the attitude of that Calamity from Martial Capital?"

The entrepreneur gazed in the direction Yu Qianxia had left and said calmly, "She seems to have guessed something and doesn't want to get involved in this mess."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the terminal, followed by a soft laugh.

"As expected of the 'White Tiger' of Martial Arts Capital, he is always so perceptive."

"Don't worry about her anymore. She'll leave in less than two weeks."

"After all, she knows very well whose territory this is, and she understands that if she doesn't want to cause unnecessary trouble, she can't stay here for long."

The entrepreneur nodded: "Understood."

The moment he hung up the call, the entrepreneur took one last look in the direction Yu Qianxia's convoy had left before turning and disappearing into the dust-filled ruins of the half-built villa.

Upon seeing this scene, the anime viewers couldn't hold back their excitement.

"Hey buddy, so you old codger wears a mask too?"

'I thought he was just an ordinary passerby, but I never imagined he was such a cunning old man.'

'A steampunk city? A masked city! Everyone here wears their own unique mask!'

It's so great that everyone suddenly discovered the embers; after all, people's hearts weren't as complicated back then as they are now.

"The stars in the first season were all children. What bad intentions could children possibly have?"

"That's true."
