Urban Immortal Lord

"If you fire, you will die!"

Summer's soft voice boomed like thunder from the heavens, startling Song Li so much that his pupils contracted, a cold sweat broke out all over his body, and he stared at the boy in front of him with trepidation.

"Song Li, put down your pistol! A grandmaster cannot be humiliated!" Du Kexin hurriedly reminded him from the side, and then moved gracefully to stop the gun in Song Li's hand.

However, Du Kexin was clearly a step too late.

"Bang!"

At this moment, Song Li gritted his teeth, revealing a chilling killing intent. A hint of madness flashed in his eyes, and he pulled the trigger directly. A bullet, accompanied by the sound of it cutting through the air, attacked Xia Tian's face.

"Nonsense!"

Xia Tian shook his head, his spiritual energy surged, and with a flick of his wrist, he caught the bullet flying through the air. Then, with a flick of his finger, the bullet changed direction and headed straight for Song Li's head!

"Please, Mr. Xia, show mercy!"

Just as the bullet was less than a foot away from Song Li's head, Du Kexin's face showed a hint of despair, and she hurriedly pleaded with Xia Tian.

Xia Tian snorted coldly upon seeing this, but still withdrew his spiritual power. The bullet slowly fell from Song Li's head.

Du Kexin finally breathed a sigh of relief and glanced gratefully at Xia Tian.

Song Li, still shaken, looked at Xia Tian with fear. He had truly felt the breath of death just now. If Xia Tian hadn't withdrawn his spiritual power at the critical moment, he would have been pierced by a bullet and become a corpse.

The reason Xia Tian didn't kill her was because he didn't dislike the woman in front of him. After all, she had been speaking up for him from the beginning and her attitude was quite good.

Therefore, Xia Tian decided to give her face and did not kill Song Li.

"Thank you for your mercy, Mr. Xia!" Du Kexin said gratefully to Xia Tian. If Xia Tian had really killed Song Li, she would not have been able to explain it when she returned.

"You should be grateful you have a good accomplice, otherwise I would have killed you today." Xia Tian nodded to Du Kexin, then looked at Song Li and said calmly, "There are many things in this world that you don't know about. Don't think you're so great just because you're from the National Security Bureau. Perhaps martial arts masters are very powerful in your eyes, but..."

As Xia Tian spoke, a hint of longing appeared on his face. He sighed and said, "In my eyes, so-called martial arts masters can be destroyed with a flick of the finger..."

Upon hearing Xia Tian's last words, Song Li was quite dismissive. In his view, simply projecting one's inner energy equated to being a martial arts master, and this young man was merely showing off and spouting nonsense.

Du Kexin, however, understood Xia Tian's unspoken meaning. Perhaps this seemingly ordinary young man in front of her had already reached an unimaginable level of strength... a level known as a martial arts legend in the martial arts world!

"Do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll take my leave." Xia Tian composed himself and said to the two of them.

Seeing this, Song Li was about to speak when Du Kexin stopped him with a look and quickly said, "Mr. Xia's abilities are extraordinary. We know we cannot invite you to the National Security Bureau. We will take our leave now, and see you later."

Du Kexin had already realized that Xia Tian's strength had exceeded the National Security Bureau's assessment of him. Continuing to stalemate would not bring any benefits, so it would be wiser to leave first, report the matter to the higher-ups, and request a decision from them.

"No need to see me out." Xia Tian watched the two figures gradually disappear into the abandoned factory, a thoughtful look on his face. He knew that perhaps in the near future, the people from the Chinese National Security Bureau would come knocking on his door again, and they would definitely be experts.

"This is really troublesome."

Xia Tian shook his head. For the moment, he couldn't think of a good solution, so he could only take it one step at a time.

A moment later, Xia Tian left the abandoned factory in the western suburbs, hailed a taxi, and drove towards the location of her rented apartment in downtown M City.

……

In a luxurious hotel in M ​​City, two figures appeared in a presidential suite. These two were Du Kexin and Song Li, who had just returned empty-handed.

"Kexin, why did you stop me just now?" Song Li said with a dissatisfied look, "Hmph, I really don't believe that this kid dares to go against the National Security Bureau."

"Song Li, I truly regret coming with you to investigate this murder case." Du Kexin shook her head and said disappointedly, "Can't you see that if that young man hadn't shown mercy, you would be dead already?"

"What do you mean by showing mercy? That kid was only afraid of the National Security Bureau, that's why he didn't dare to kill him," Song Li retorted defiantly.

Du Kexin ignored his words and instead took out an encrypted phone and dialed an anonymous number.

"Hello, who is this?" came an old voice from the other end of the phone.

Upon seeing this, Du Kexin quickly stood up straight and said seriously, "Reporting to Director Qiu, I am Du Kexin. We have investigated and found that the murder case in M ​​City is indeed related to people in the martial arts world, and we suspect that it was committed by a teenager."

"Is that so? Then just bring that boy back for interrogation. Why call for instructions for such a small matter?" A dissatisfied voice came from the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing this, Du Kexin gave a wry smile, then said seriously, "Reporting to Director Qiu, the young man's strength does not match the previous intelligence. According to our estimation, he should have reached the Grandmaster level, or perhaps even higher!"

After Du Kexin finished speaking, there was no further conversation on the other end of the phone for a long time, as if the other person had fallen into deep thought.

A moment later, an aged voice came from the other end of the phone: "Send me the boy's detailed information immediately. Then, the two of you stay put and wait. I will be heading to M City to meet you soon!"

Upon hearing this, Du Kexin hung up the phone, immediately opened her laptop, logged into an encrypted website, and sent an encrypted file.

……

Beijing, the capital of China!

At this moment, in a courtyard house, heavily guarded on all sides, not even a fly could get in. An elderly man, about fifty years old, sat at a desk, browsing through an encrypted document, his face gradually becoming serious.

This old man was none other than Qiu Guohong, the director of the China National Security Bureau!

This old man looked frail and weak, but he held great power and his strength had reached the late stage of the Grandmaster level!

Half an hour later, Qiu Guohong put down the encrypted file in his hand and then made a phone call, which lasted for a full twenty minutes.

"Secretary Liu, immediately arrange a private jet; I need to go to M City personally!"

After hanging up the phone, Qiu Guohong had already made up his mind and immediately instructed his secretary who was standing to the side.
