Chapter 56 – Branch

And as Meng Ke was interrogating him.

A black Toyota Crown pulled over at the Jiu Jiang central square, its tinted windows making it impossible for anyone to see what was inside.

“I can feel it, it’s here.”

A woman in a fitted tracksuit spoke, she had short white hair and a black violin case in her lap that she was caressing with a hand.

In the front passenger seat was a woman wearing sunglasses, who nodded her head in response as she picked up her walkie-talkie to speak before turning back to the woman with a serious expression.

“Are you confident in taking him down?”

The white-haired woman had a serious look in her eyes, and she spoke after a long pause, “I can’t tell, this man is strong but I can tell from his aura, that at least he’s still an ordinary  human.”

The woman in sunglasses silently sighed a breath of relief as she recalled the hundreds of figures in the report, one of which was someone who could have the entire world in the palm of their hands.

“Team 1 disperse the crowd, team 2 prepare to capture! Everyone in positions!”

………

Yasuo’s face was filled with ecstasy, the blissful feeling had left his body trembling as he spasmed.

Meng Ke had already known everything he needed to know.

Yasuo was here because he had a hazy feeling that had driven him here.

Although he didn’t know what he was waiting for, he had a hunch that a worthy opponent would appear.

And in the end, what appeared was Meng Ke, not his opponent.

And now, was this sight of Yasuo lying on the ground.

“Doctor……! Make way! A doctor is here!”

An ambulance with its glaring red and blue lights on stopped at the side as three paramedics rushed over with a stretcher. And in response, a few onlookers quickly started to make way in the overcrowded area, allowing them to pass.

A paramedic quickly squatted on the ground, Yasuo’s spasming reminded him of an epileptic seizure and just as he was about to open his first aid kit, he unknowingly held Yasuo’s hand.

“How muscular!”

Even a man couldn’t help but react in surprise, he felt as though he had grabbed onto a vibrating piece of metal, and the tremors travelling through his hand made it numb.

“Who?”

Yasuo opened his eyes in vigilance, and he turned his head towards the paramedic.

Faced with eyes filled with ecstasy, the paramedic felt his scalp go numb. How could a man have such tender and lustful eyes?

In that instant, the paramedic figured something out and he placed his hands over his forehead, “Quick! Bring me some ice!”

With this appearance, it was obvious that he had been drugged.

It was important that a potent aphrodisiac was strong enough to kill someone, and if they didn’t take the necessary measures right now, it would be useless even if he had made it to the hospital.

The paramedic was perplexed, did perverts go for men too these days? Or did a woman do this?

And as he thought, a chill went up his spine as he took the ice bag his colleague had brought, quickly placing them on Yasuo’s cheeks.

And at this moment.

A group of shield-wielding police were heading their way, and every single one of them was wearing a full-body suit.

“Make way! This is a police case! All irrelevant personnel must leave!”

“Eh eh eh?! Why are you guys pushing me?! I am a paramedic!”

With the ice bag still in hand, the policemen pulled the paramedic up and pushed him outside of the police tape.

“All irrelevant personnel must leave!”

Yet another group of policemen, this time holding guns, appeared with a threatening aura. And rather than policemen, they seemed to be people disguised as policemen…… 

These men were trained and well-organised, it didn’t take long for the central square to be cordoned off with police tapes, with men stationed a few meters apart covering the entire perimeter.

“Ka ka ka……”

Faced with countless black gun barrels, Yasuo felt the looming sense of death, but he still didn’t want to leave.

He was afraid, afraid that he would never feel this again if he left.

A man and a woman wearing sunglasses walked over, following a white-haired woman with a violin case on her back.

“Mister Yasuo, you have been surrounded.” The woman in sunglasses walked forwards, looking strangely at Yasuo, who was wriggling on the floor like a worm.

From the information she was provided, she had assumed the Wind Swordsman to be a prideful swordsman that had both strength and charisma, but the sight before her had shattered her imagination.

The man that was moaning on the ground, wriggling his body like a worm……

Was this truly the revered master that was at the peak of wind swordsmanship, Wind Swordsman?

The white-haired woman’s brows were furrowed as well. Despite not having any memory, she had seen her own information, and within that, it had stated that the wind swordsman was her mortal enemy.

My mortal enemy was such a person?

“You……who are all of you?” Yasuo’s busy eyes skimmed over the white-haired woman as his words slurred.

Their memories had all started when they appeared in this world, as for mortal enemies, they didn’t have a shred of hatred towards them.

“What’s wrong with this guy?” The woman wearing sunglasses asked the white-haired woman.

The white-haired woman shook her head.

Her mind only had memories of combat and cultivation, and she knew nothing about anything else.

At the side, Meng Ke had been observing them this entire time. He had read the minds of the gun-wielding policemen and these three people, and he knew that they were from a mysterious department of the government.

This was the Jiu Jiang branch, just like Zheng Shan Hai and the rest who had appeared in Tian Hai city.

However, the Jiu Jiang branch wasn’t held up by any other matters, and every single one of them was positioned and ready at all times.

And that white-haired woman, her name was Riven.

She was from ‘League of Legends’ – the number one skirmisher.

And she was the first superpower to be accepted by them.

Originally, it was impossible for her to enter any special departments, much less this department.

But due to unknown reasons, while Riven had concealed herself as an ordinary waitress in a restaurant, she had strangely fallen in love with an ordinary human.

Afterwards, that man had been beaten and Riven drew her blade in retaliation.

She had killed a total of 26 people, littering an entire street with corpses.

And because of that, she had exposed herself.

According to Xia country’s laws, an existence like hers was supposed to be sentenced to death.

But to everyone’s surprise, Riven pleaded with them to give her a chance to offset her crimes with merit.

And at that time, the department had just been created and they considered the fact that the people that Riven had murdered weren’t innocent people.

Faced with this opportunity, they decided to deal with this matter lightly.

With such a background, Riven joined them.

But the department didn’t trust Riven so easily.

They were curious, why would the cold and prideful Riven kneel down and plead to them?

And after a long investigation, they came to realise something, and they finally started to let down their guard.

It was love!

What a wonderful thing.
