The organization I founded has been exposed by the reborn!

"You... want to fight me?"

Upon hearing Su Yu's words, Qin Xinran's beautiful eyes widened slightly, a hint of undisguised astonishment and nervousness flashing in them.

Are you kidding me?

Just a few hours ago, the scene of the unfinished building was still vivid in my mind.

The one in front of me is a freakish being who can use his physical strength and that terrifying golden light to beat a vengeful ghost with teleportation ability like a punching bag!

Although she has now awakened the "Shadow Overlord" ability, her physical abilities have also improved dramatically.

But seeing how easily Su Yu had blocked those two shadowy blades, she knew that she was no match for him now.

Seeing Qin Xinran's slightly stiff expression, a smile flashed in Su Yu's eyes, and he explained gently:

"Don't be nervous, it's just a friendly spar."

"The strange event is about to occur, and actual combat is the fastest way to master your abilities. On one hand, I want to test your strength and see where the upper limit of your A-level ability is in actual combat; on the other hand, I also want to be your sparring partner and help you get familiar with this unfamiliar power as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this explanation, Qin Xinran finally understood.

It turns out the leader was intentionally cultivating him.

She took a deep breath, suppressing her nervousness, and her previously evasive eyes instantly became sharp.

The indomitable spirit characteristic of strong businesswomen in Yanjing was fully unleashed at this moment.

"Since the leader is willing to offer guidance, then I will not stand on ceremony."

Qin Xinran stood still, her hands hanging slightly at her sides.

"Come on, attack me with all your might. Don't worry about hurting me. In this training room, you can unleash your abilities without any restraint." Su Yu stood with his hands behind his back, not even activating the Golden Light Spell, simply looking at her calmly.

"Excuse me!"

The voice just fell.

Qin Xinran's beautiful eyes narrowed, and her mental power erupted instantly.

"Shadow Mastery!"

There was a "whoosh" sound.

The light and shadows that had been peacefully spread across the room floor seemed to come alive instantly. Dozens of jet-black, almost tangible shadow vines, like venomous snakes emerging from their holes, shrieked as they tore through the air, frantically attacking Su Yu from all directions!

With such force, even an armored vehicle would be instantly cut to pieces.

However, they were faced with this overwhelming shadow of destruction.

Su Yu didn't even try to dodge.

"Buzz—"

Just when those shadowy vines were less than half a meter away from him.

A layer of dazzling golden Qi flames suddenly erupted from his body!

"Jingle bells—!"

The sounds of rapid collisions rang out like raindrops.

Those shadow weapons, powerful enough to cut through gold and jade, collapsed and vanished the moment they collided with the Golden Light Curse, just like ice and snow meeting the blazing sun, without even touching the hem of Su Yu's clothes.

"The speed is good, but the penetration of the attack is too scattered. It's enough to deal with ordinary monsters, but against high-level defenses, this wide-range scattering is like scratching a thorn."

Su Yu stood in the golden light, making his comments in a calm tone.

Qin Xinran gritted her teeth. Of course she knew that this attack couldn't break through Su Yu's defense. That attack was just a feint!

"Slipping through the shadows!"

Taking advantage of the moment when Su Yu's vision was obscured by the golden light and the shattered shadows.

Qin Xinran's figure suddenly blurred, turning into a pool of liquid shadow that melted into the ground beneath her feet.

next second.

In the long shadow cast by the lamplight behind Su Yu.

A slender figure darted out without warning, like a ghost!

Qin Xinran conjured a deep, dark shadow dagger in her hand, imbued with the eerie rule of [Shadow Stripping].

Just a slight scratch on Su Yu's skin would instantly strip him of his five senses!

"it's over!"

A glint flashed in Qin Xinran's eyes, and she aimed the dagger straight at the back of Su Yu's neck!

She didn't think Su Yu could avoid this kind of assassination, which used the enemy's shadow to carry out an absolute blind spot.

but……

Just as the dagger was about to pierce Su Yu.

A horrifying scene unfolded.

"Sizzle!"

A faint crackling sound of electricity rang out.

To Qin Xinran's astonishment, a blinding purple arc of electricity erupted beneath Su Yu's feet.

It is indeed [Thunder Strike]!

Under the stimulation of his physical cells by the lightning, Su Yu's nerve reflexes and movement speed instantly soared to a terrifying level.

His entire body moved like a purple afterimage, shifting half a body length to the side.

"Whoosh!"

The dagger grazed past the afterimage and missed its target!

Followed by.

Su Yu swiftly grabbed Qin Xinran's wrist, which was holding the dagger, with a precise and powerful burst of speed combined with Lei Xing's movements.

"Using the enemy's shadow to sneak up and ambush from a blind spot is a very good tactical approach. If it were anyone else, they would have been seriously injured or killed in that attack."

Su Yu slowly turned around, looking at Qin Xinran, who was standing close to him with a look of horror on her face, and said calmly, "Unfortunately, you are facing me. In the face of absolute speed and perception, any sneak attack is meaningless."

Qin Xinran stared blankly at her wrist, which was being held tightly.

A deep sense of powerlessness spread through my heart.

Her combo just now was clearly pre-planned, maximizing the mobility and unpredictability of her abilities.

However, even so, the man in front of her easily resolved the situation.

"Monster! This guy is a complete monster!"

At this moment, Qin Xinran's awe of Su Yu had reached an unparalleled level.

Seeing the shock in her eyes, Su Yu casually released her wrist.

"The conventional methods have been tested. Now, let me see your trump card."

Su Yu took a few steps back, staring intently at her: "Use your domain skill, unleash its full power, hold nothing back."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xinran hesitated for a moment.

"Chief, that domain... once activated, it forcibly strips all living beings within its boundaries of their five senses. I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of hurting me?"

Su Yu smiled, a smile carrying an undeniable air of dominance: "Use me as much as you want. If I can't even withstand your domain, then I shouldn't be the leader."

Seeing Su Yu's confident expression, Qin Xinran no longer hesitated.

"Shadows descend!"

Qin Xinran let out a cold, sharp shout and slammed her hands onto the ground.

boom!

For an instant.

Centered on her, an extreme darkness, so thick it seemed to drip ink, spread wildly in all directions like a black torrent bursting its banks!

In less than two seconds, the entire spacious training room was completely swallowed up by the darkness.

Within this area, all light was forcibly erased.

Su Yu stood still, his eyebrows slightly raised.

Because at that moment, he clearly felt that his vision, hearing, and even smell were forcibly stripped away by a powerful and strange rule!

He could see nothing and hear nothing, as if he had been locked in a completely silent, dark room, becoming a blind and deaf man with no power to resist.

"This power of rules that strips away the five senses is indeed domineering."

Su Yu secretly admired him.

Meanwhile, Qin Xinran, hidden in the darkness and transformed into the ruler of the domain, looked at Su Yu, who stood motionless in place, and felt full of confidence.

"Even a leader would be helpless after having their five senses forcibly stripped away, right?"

Whoosh!

Qin Xinran conjured two sharp blades in her hand, ready to attack Su Yu.

However, in the next second.

A terrifying pressure that made her soul tremble suddenly erupted from Su Yu!

"A very good field."

Suddenly, Su Yu's voice, as loud as thunder, rang out from the darkness.

"But remember this: in this world, any strange rules are ultimately futile in the face of absolute power!"

The moment the words fell.

"BOOM—!!!"

A blinding purple-gold light, like a blazing sun tearing through the long night, exploded in the center of the absolute darkness!

That was the golden light with thunder patterns that Su Yu had created by fusing the Golden Light Mantra with the Five Thunder Orthodox Method he had just obtained!

The incredibly violent purple lightning, mixed with the purest and most yang Taoist energy, transformed into countless lightning dragons that raged wildly throughout the room.

Thunder is the absolute nemesis of all evil and darkness!

"Snap! Snap!"

Qin Xinran's proud "Shadow Descent" domain couldn't even last two seconds under the bombardment of this earth-shattering Yang Lightning. It shattered like a broken glass dome and finally vanished with a bang!

"Thump."

The backlash from the forced shattering of her domain caused Qin Xinran to grunt.

If Su Yu hadn't deliberately restrained his power, the backlash alone would have been enough to seriously injure Qin Xinran.

The lights in the room were turned back on.

Su Yu stood still, his body still wreathed in lingering purple arcs of electricity, like a god who controlled thunder.

"Lightning...lightning?!"

Qin Xinran stared blankly at the scene, her mind going blank once again.

Golden light protecting his body, teleportation techniques, an extremely strong physique... and now, he's even displaying the power of lightning?!

Just how many cards does this man in front of me still have up his sleeve?

Is this the true strength of the Dawn Leader?!

"You are very capable, but you are still too rudimentary in your mastery of this power."

Su Yu suppressed the lightning and golden light emanating from his body and walked up to Qin Xinran.

"The switching of shadows is not decisive enough, and the pre-cast animation of the domain is too long. If you encounter a high-level rule-based ghost, these flaws are enough to kill you ten times over."

"From now on, set aside time each day to come to the training room at headquarters and spar with those metal dolls that can infinitely regenerate. Keep practicing until you can turn this shadow power into your body's instinct."

Su Yu's stern comments made Qin Xinran lower her head in shame, but her admiration and awe for him had reached their peak.

"Understood! Thank you for your guidance, Chief!" Qin Xinran stood up and bowed respectfully.

"Alright, that's enough for tonight."

Su Yu glanced at the time on his wrist; it was already 11 p.m.

He turned around and led Qin Xinran out of the training field.

The two followed the central avenue, leaving the territory of the Dawn headquarters and returning to the private museum in the real world.

……

Outside the museum.

The night was deep.

Su Yu led Qin Xinran to the security booth in front of the gate.

He knocked on the glass.

"Uncle Wang, could you please open the door?"

Inside the guard booth, Old Wang, who had just woken up, was taken aback when he saw Su Yu standing outside.

"Xiao Su? You...you haven't left yet?"

Old Wang was a little confused. He clearly remembered that Su Yu drove in in the evening, so why hadn't he come out yet in the middle of the night? And when did he get a woman who was unbelievably beautiful by his side?

He was sleeping and didn't notice when the woman went in.

"I was taking care of some personal business inside, and I just finished." Su Yu smiled without changing his expression.

"Oh, okay, okay."

Although Old Wang was a little puzzled, he thought that he had just fallen asleep and probably hadn't heard the woman's movements, so he didn't ask any more questions and quickly pressed the switch on the door.

The two walked out the door.

The night outside the Seventh Ring Road was exceptionally quiet, with only Qin Xinran's black sedan parked on the empty roadside.

Su Yu had been teleported here, so naturally he didn't have a car. He paused slightly, casually glancing at the empty streets, pondering how to get back.

On the other side, Qin Xinran also noticed something was wrong.

Without hesitation, she strode forward, naturally opened the passenger door, and bowed slightly respectfully.

"Chief, this place is remote. Let me take you back."

She lowered her posture extremely, even subconsciously reaching out to block the top frame of the car door.

If people in Beijing's business community saw the icy female CEO of the prestigious Qin Group acting like a personal chauffeur, their jaws would probably drop in astonishment.

Su Yu didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the hospitality as a matter of course.
