Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The man in black had never thought that tonight’s matter would fail, much less that he would be caught.

He took a punch from the Gold Four-Star security guard. His sternum was broken and his internal organs were damaged. He was severely injured and could not get up.

However, he was stubborn. “My target is someone with the surname Song. You don’t have the right to know who I am, let alone where I come from. Otherwise, you will only get into trouble.”

When the two security guards heard this, they frowned.

They had seen many people, but not many were as arrogant as him. Could it be that this person really had some background?

Then, the burly man looked at Song Fan and asked, “Do you know who he is and why he killed you?”

Song Fan was still in shock after saving his life.

He took a closer look, then shook his head and said, “I don’t know him.”

He was silent for a moment before continuing, “I think someone was most likely anxious when they saw me enter the Demon Subduing Academy. They were afraid of me threatening him, so they wanted to kill me.”

The burly security guard glanced at the man in black and said, “Who cares who you are? You came to my territory to cause trouble. I’ll bring you to the law enforcement bureau first.”

The man in black had broken ribs. He took a while to get up.

“If you dare to send me to the Law Enforcement Bureau, I’ll let you stinky guards die without a burial place. The power behind me is far from what you frogs at the bottom of the well can imagine.”

When the two security guards heard this, their faces instantly darkened, especially the burly man. His fists creaked, and he couldn’t help it.

The man in black did not pay attention to Zhou Xuan. He did not know that the spiritual attack was launched by Zhou Xuan.

Zhou Xuan had disguised his cultivation level as a Silver Four-Star. He was the most inconspicuous existence.

He stood in an inconspicuous position and felt that this man in black was too arrogant.

Such an arrogant person would usually not survive more than two chapters in a novel.

He took a deep look at the husky lying in the corner.

Then, the shadow of a beast flashed.

The husky suddenly got up. Its eyes were red and its mouth was wide open. It pounced on the man in black as if it had been injected with chicken blood.

The man in black was severely injured by the security guards and no longer had any combat strength. He was instantly pounced on by the husky.

The husky’s body was covered in blood, and its wolf nature had been stimulated. It was incomparably ferocious, biting the black-clothed man until his flesh was mangled.

“Save me, save me!” He let out a miserable cry.

At the side, the few of them watched quietly without any intention of taking action.

The man in black was dead.

The husky bit his neck and separated his head from his body.

He had thought of many ways that he would die, but he had never thought that he would be bitten to death by a dog.

The burly security guard walked over and glanced at them. “You all saw it. He was bitten to death by a dog. It has nothing to do with us.”

When everyone heard this, they nodded in agreement.

Song Fan looked at the dead man in black and walked over with a worried expression.

Then, he said to the husky beside him, “Er Ha, are you alright? Does your tooth hurt?”

The husky was injured, and there were several bloody wounds on its body. However, its vitality was tenacious, and its life was not in danger.

Song Fan was also slightly injured.

Fortunately, Zhou Xuan was helping him in the dark. He only suffered superficial wounds and was not seriously injured.

…

In this era, people died unnaturally every day. It was not rare for someone to die.

However, with the help of enthusiastic neighbors, the people from the Law Enforcement Bureau still came in the end.

“How did he die?”

“Bitten by a dog.”

“Where’s the dog?”

“He ran away.”

“Whose dog?”

“Officer, it’s my dog.” Song Fan collapsed on the chair with a pitiful look on his face. “Oh my, I’m the victim. Look, the wound on my body is several inches deep. I almost couldn’t hold on until you guys arrived.”

“Stop pretending. I know your injuries aren’t that serious. Go back to the Law Enforcement Bureau and cooperate with our investigation.”

Zhou Xuan and the two security guards followed him to the Law Enforcement Bureau.

As for the husky, it had already run away.

Everyone went to the Law Enforcement Bureau and explained the matter in detail.

“Officer, I’m really the victim. It was completely self-defense,” Song Fan explained. “They can all testify.”

“We’ll investigate the nature of the matter. It’s not up to you to decide.”

Zhou Xuan and the others waited for about half an hour before the identity of the man in black was investigated.

The police officer took the investigation report and looked at them deeply. “Look at what you did.”

When they heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. What was going on?

Song Fan crossed his arms and said, “Officer, I’m still injured. Don’t scare me.”

The policeman explained, “Why would I scare you? I said that you’ve done something good. The victim is an assassin. In the past few months, he has committed several crimes. His methods are cruel. He didn’t let go of anyone from 80 years old to 8 years old. He’s our target.”

“Ah?” This was beyond everyone’s expectations.

“Whether he’s dead or alive, he’s been caught. Therefore, you’ve done a meritorious deed,” the law enforcer said. “According to the bounty, you can also receive a reward of 1,000 yuan.”

“1,000 yuan? Why is it so little?” Song Fan smacked his lips.

“He’s just the lowest-level yellow-level assassin. How much can he be worth?” The law enforcer shook his head. “In the past, he always committed crimes outside the city. If he were here, we would have caught him long ago.”

When Zhou Xuan heard this, he thought to himself, No wonder he’s so lousy. So he’s just the lowest-level assassin.

Song Fan looked down on the reward of 1,000 yuan and asked Zhou Xuan and the two security guards to split it.

However, Zhou Xuan did not take it.

“I didn’t help much, so I don’t want it.”

It was all thanks to his help in the dark tonight. Otherwise, Song Fan would have died. However, he did not point him out.

In the end, the two security guards split the bounty.

After leaving the Law Enforcement Bureau, Song Fan even gave them a sum of money in private to thank them.

By the time he was done, it was almost dawn.

The two security guards returned to Biji District and continued their shift.

Zhou Xuan did not return. Instead, he accompanied Song Fan to the Demon Subduing Academy to look for Chen Yueru.

The husky was seriously injured and had gone away.

On the way, Song Fan heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Little Xuan, I really have to thank you. At that time, it was fortunate that you shouted that the security guards were here, which made that person panic. Otherwise, you would have to collect my corpse.”

Zhou Xuan shook his head and said, “There’s no need to thank me. I only hate that my cultivation is insufficient and I can’t help you.”

As the two of them spoke, they had already entered the Demon Subduing Academy.

Originally, Chen Yueru was sleeping in the dormitory. It was the husky who went to find the little she-wolf and woke her up.

At that time, when she saw the husky covered in blood, she was also shocked. “Did you go to look for other little bitches and get beaten up by the other dogs?”

After asking, she realized that it wasn’t the case.

She did not hesitate and immediately went to the infirmary to treat the husky’s wound.

Her Astral Soul Guanyin Willow had a very strong healing ability. Not only was it useful to humans, but it was also useful to demon beasts. It was rather mysterious.

By the time Zhou Xuan and the others arrived at the infirmary, Chen Yueru had already stabilized the husky’s injuries. It only needed to recuperate for a few days before it recovered.

When she saw Song Fan enter, she urged, “Take it off quickly.”
