"Fireball!" Qin Xiaochuan shouted, and a fireball quickly struck a blond man. As the blond man fell to the ground, a vine emerged from the ground and wrapped around his hands and feet.

"I didn't expect this mission to be so simple." He looked at the man lying on the ground, his blond hair burned off, and shook his head in disappointment.

This morning they received a C-level mission from the Tian Shu Hall, and by the afternoon they had caught the suspect. Compared to the missions they had carried out before, this one was on a completely different level of difficulty.

"If every mission involves risking your life, then the world is going to be in chaos," Guo Shiyi comforted him with a smile.

"I heard there have been supernatural events in the east of the city. It would be great if we could take on this kind of mission."

"Handling paranormal events isn't our forte; we usually leave that to the disciples of Maoshan or the monks of Shaolin," Guo Shiyi said, shaking her head dismissively.

"Isn't Senior Wei a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple? We could learn a couple of ghost-catching skills from him sometime," Qin Xiaochuan said, walking up to the blond man. He pulled a file folder from the man's pocket, checked that the contents were intact, snapped his fingers, and said, "OK! Mission complete!"

"Then let's hurry back and hand in the mission." Guo Shiyi waved her hand, and the vines on the blond man disappeared.

"From now on, you need to start anew. Don't go out and do bad things with this little strength. The world is dangerous, brother!" Qin Xiaochuan slapped the blond man's face with a file folder and said earnestly. The latter stared at him with wide eyes and a look of horror.

"Have you been watching any TV shows or movies lately?" Guo Shiyi asked with a frown as the two walked out of the alley.

"How did you know? There's a movie called 'Lord of Shanghai' that's been released recently. It's really popular. Wasn't my performance just now impressive?" Qin Xiaochuan said smugly.

"Yes, yes, yes," Guo Shiyi said helplessly. "At least the other party was quite frightened by you."

"Hehe." Qin Xiaochuan chuckled smugly. He took out his phone to check the time and said, "I didn't expect it to be noon so soon. Let's go, I'll treat you to something delicious."

"Then I want to eat braised beef brisket with noodles," Guo Shiyi said happily.

"No problem, I happen to know a place nearby that makes really delicious mixed noodles, let's go."

After arriving at their destination by ride-hailing service, the two found a window seat and sat down.

"It's him!" Before Qin Xiaochuan could even sit down, he suddenly heard Guo Shiyi excitedly point to the street outside the window and shout.

Qin Xiaochuan looked in the direction she was pointing and saw a man walking out of a restaurant. The man had a round head and broad ears; it was none other than Brother Kun.

"Looks like I'll treat you to this meal later." Qin Xiaochuan looked at Guo Shiyi apologetically.

"I won't forget that, okay?" Guo Shiyi said with a sly smile.

"Don't worry, it won't take too long. Let's go," Qin Xiaochuan said confidently. After speaking, he and Guo Shiyi quickly walked out of the store. They saw Brother Kun turning into an alley, so they quickly followed.

The two followed Brother Kun until they entered an unfinished building, at which point Qin Xiaochuan suddenly appeared in front of him.

"This time there's no scaffolding for you to escape from," Qin Xiaochuan said coldly, looking at the other person.

"But I didn't plan to run away either." Kun chuckled sinisterly. As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people suddenly emerged from the shadows of the building.

"Looks like we're surrounded," Qin Xiaochuan said coldly. He didn't even glance at the suddenly appearing enemy, because he knew that in this situation, the key was to remain calm.

"These kinds of games are completely unsuitable for kids. They should be focusing on their studies." Kun looked at Qin Xiaochuan with disdain. "Did you really think I hadn't noticed you two were...?"

Kun's voice stopped abruptly because Qin Xiaochuan suddenly rushed in front of him and punched him in the right cheek.

The bald, burly man was immediately sent flying. Before he could react, a vine appeared on his body and tightly wrapped around him.

"Bang." Kun Ge fell heavily to the ground. Qin Xiaochuan stepped forward, stomped on Kun Ge's body, and said, "This move is called 'capture the king first to catch the thief.'"

Kun shook his head and said with a cold laugh, "But I'm not..."

"Xiao Chuan, be careful!" Guo Shiyi suddenly shouted a warning. At the same time as she warned him, Qin Xiao Chuan realized that danger was coming. A Xuanwu Shield had appeared behind him, and then a series of spiritual energy bullets hit the Xuanwu Shield.

Seeing Qin Xiaochuan easily deflect the dense barrage of spiritual energy projectiles, two men in black from the crowd each drew a longsword and charged towards Qin Xiaochuan in a crisscross pattern.

"Shiyi!" Qin Xiaochuan shouted, and rushed forward like a wild beast.

"Understood," Guo Shiyi replied loudly. She quickly pulled Kun Ge to her side with vines, while simultaneously forming a series of hand seals in front of her chest.

"Misty Forest." Guo Shiyi uttered a low shout, and immediately all sorts of plants sprouted from all around the building, including a huge red flower. The red flower grew and bloomed rapidly, constantly emitting a red mist as it opened. Soon, the entire building was filled with this red mist, and Qin Xiaochuan's figure disappeared into the mist.

"Bang!" Qin Xiaochuan, through the smoke, quickly locked onto a target using his Heavenly Eye. In a flash, he was in front of the opponent and used the Blood Surge skill to send the opponent flying.

"Bang, bang, bang." Several more muffled thuds rang out, and a few more people flew out. Qin Xiaochuan moved among the crowd like a ghost. Just as he was about to do the same to another man in black, he found that when his fist hit the other man, the man did not move at all.

Qin Xiaochuan looked up in surprise and found that the other party was completely encased in a special metal mecha. The mecha did not deform at all when it was hit by his gravity.

"Looks like I've met my match." Qin Xiaochuan grinned, and then a fist came flying towards him. A blue armor appeared in front of Qin Xiaochuan, and with a "bang," this time it was Qin Xiaochuan who was sent flying.

"What's wrong?" Guo Shiyi's worried voice came from behind.

"It's alright, but we're probably in for a tough fight," Qin Xiaochuan said with a wry smile.

At this moment, the situation is extremely unfavorable for them. Although they have only exchanged blows once, Qin Xiaochuan has already sensed that the strength of those mechs is extraordinary and that it will be difficult to defeat them in a short time. Moreover, he still does not know how many of them there are.

Just then, Qin Xiaochuan noticed that the enemy seemed to have slowed down their attack. The two people who had been attacking with swords were actually leading the wounded people on the ground to retreat to the outer perimeter.

Something was definitely amiss. Qin Xiaochuan warned Guo Shiyi while assuming a defensive stance, observing the next move of the men in black, and silently devising a strategy in his mind.

Given the enemy's superior numbers, a direct confrontation would be the worst possible strategy. Perhaps the only option is to utilize the complex structure of this building to maneuver against them, preventing them from leveraging their numerical advantage, and then devise a way to break through.

While Qin Xiaochuan was still making plans, a new situation arose with the men in black. After they retreated to a certain distance, several mecha figures emerged from all directions, raised their hands, and flames shot out from their palms.

"Oh no!" Qin Xiaochuan exclaimed instinctively, then quickly ran towards Guo Shiyi's side.
