Chapter 109: Cannon fodder slag online whitewashing 19
The reason why the police officers were able to arrive at the scene so quickly was partly because Xie Qi had tipped them off in advance.
On the other hand, we have to thank the vast number of netizens who were watching the live broadcast at that time. These enthusiastic people almost blew up the police station's phone!
The police officers felt a deep sense of guilt when they thought about the clueless and stagnant case being exposed on the Internet without any concealment.
At this moment, Su Peng, who was struggling desperately to escape from the restraints, was restrained by the seemingly insignificant talisman paper outside the cage.
Looking at the scene before them, the police officers couldn't help but become very interested in the talisman paper that Xie Qi handed to them.
However, just when the police officer relaxed his vigilance a little, to everyone's surprise, Ye Meng'en unexpectedly reached out and uncovered the talisman paper.
In an instant, Su Peng, who regained his freedom, was like a beast that had escaped from a cage, and powerful demonic energy burst out from his body.
His clothes fluttered in the wind, and the objects in the room were scattered all over the place by the strong wind, making a mess.
Even those battle-hardened police officers found it difficult to withstand the fierce wind and subconsciously raised their arms to shield their eyes.
"You bunch of ants, you actually want to control me? That's just a foolish dream! I am the most powerful existence in the continent of cultivation, and you are just the nutrients for my cultivation, hahaha..." Su Peng laughed wildly, and his voice exploded in the air like thunder.
Before he finished speaking, he slowly extended a hand. For a split second, time seemed to freeze. All the police officers froze, faces filled with expressions of utter agony, as if all the blood in their bodies were flowing backwards, every inch of their skin, every cell, enduring unspeakable agony.
However, this pain did not last long. After just ten seconds, everything returned to normal. The police officers fell to their knees, gasping for breath, as if they had just escaped from the brink of hell.
At this moment, Xie Qi held a rusty long sword in his hand and stabbed it towards Su Peng's heart. With a "puff" sound, the sword sank into Su Peng's chest.
However, since it had not been polished, the sword did not pose a fatal threat to him and only caused him serious injuries.
Despite this, the blow successfully stopped Su Peng from continuing his killing spree. However, Su Peng was shocked. He didn't understand why Xie Qi's worn-out sword could actually hurt him.
However, the current situation is obviously extremely unfavorable to him, and the best strategy is to retreat.
Thinking of this, Su Peng suddenly pushed Xie Qi away and at the same time reached out to pull out the long sword from his chest. Then, he waved his arm and his figure disappeared without a trace in an instant, as if he had never appeared.
All that was left at the scene was the mess, the frightened crowd, and the blood-stained rusty sword lying quietly on the ground.
"Host, didn't you say you wanted to accompany your wife? Aren't you going to come over?"
"He's asleep." After Xie Qi said that, he put the rusty sword into the scabbard.
Then, he spoke again, his tone calm but with a hint of unquestionable majesty: "If I don't come soon, I'm afraid these people will have a hard time surviving."
After saying that, Xie Qi turned his gaze to Ye Meng'en, who was huddled in the corner and shivering.
He frowned tightly, walked up to her, stared down at her, and asked, "Why did you uncover the talisman? Aren't you bent on revenge? Why did you help him? Don't you know that your actions just now almost killed everyone here?"
Facing Xie Qi's questioning, Ye Meng'en's face was filled with fear and confusion. He stammered, "I... I don't know... Su Peng told me that he was willing to repent and make amends. He also said that the piece of paper made him extremely distressed and begged me to help him."
"I really didn't know that uncovering it would lead to such serious consequences... It's just a piece of paper... I really don't know..."
Hearing this, Xie Qi's eyes flashed with doubt. He turned to look at 948 beside him and asked, "Voice transmission?"
948 nodded and responded, "Judging from the current situation, Su Peng must have used the sound transmission technique on her just now."
Xie Qi frowned upon hearing this, his expression instantly becoming gloomy. He couldn't help but curse in a low voice, "Idiot!"
He had never met such a strange person before. He actually felt pity for a guy with whom he had a deep blood feud, and that was even after knowing that he was just a substitute.
This behavior is so shameful that it is incomprehensible.
However, just as Xie Qi turned around and prepared to leave, the police officer, who had recovered, immediately asked Xie Qi: "Mr. Xie, what should we do now?"
Xie Qi didn't even turn his head and said, "Let's do nothing. Let's go back to our own homes and find our own mothers."
For a powerful and ruthless demon cultivator like Su Peng, these ordinary policemen probably couldn't pose a real threat to him. The power gap between the two sides was like a chasm, and they were not on the same level at all.
Furthermore, Xie Qi knew that ordinary weapons couldn't kill Su Peng. At best, they could only seriously injure him. Therefore, he spent all his points to acquire the Demon-Slaying Sword, which was specifically designed to slay demon cultivators.
Unfortunately, due to limited points, he could only get a rusty demon-slaying sword.
Xie Qi had already carefully planned everything. He intended to use the talisman paper to temporarily suppress Su Peng for a few days. Once he sharpened the Demon Slayer Sword, he would use it to eliminate the threat of Su Peng in one fell swoop.
But what he didn't expect was that Ye Meng'en actually let Su Peng go at the critical moment! Now the situation has taken a sharp turn for the worse, and it would be twice as difficult to catch Su Peng by surprise again.
To make matters worse, Xie Qi had no idea where Su Peng would go after escaping. At this moment, there seemed to be no other option but to return home and rethink his response.
However, after this night, people throughout the empire watched in disbelief what was happening before their eyes. The rock-solid and unquestionable scientific beliefs in their hearts collapsed and shattered in an instant.
At the same time, because the plan was disrupted, Xie Qi realized that it had become extremely difficult to capture Su Peng again.
In desperation, Xie Qi decided not to hide it anymore and resolutely told Xiahou Yuan about the serious consequences that this matter might cause.
At first, when Xiahou Yuan heard Xie Qi say something like "Su Peng can destroy the world", he was full of doubts.
After all, such an absurd statement is really hard for people to accept easily. However, for several consecutive days, the sky was flashed with dazzling lightning and thunder roared, deafening.
What is even more terrifying is that small planets were shattered by the sudden impact of meteorites, and other surrounding planets were also severely disturbed, and the situation became increasingly out of control.
Faced with such a terrifying scene, Xiahou Yuan finally began to reconsider Xie Qi's words. He realized that this was no ordinary criminal case, but a major crisis concerning the survival of the entire human race.
Finally, with the strong intervention of the imperial government, a well-trained and well-equipped army was quickly assembled.
However, things went against expectations. Although the search operation was in full swing, Su Peng disappeared without a trace as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth.
Not only that, many tragic cases of innocent people being killed by having their essence sucked out have occurred again within the empire!
Fear spread rapidly like a plague, and the entire human society fell into unprecedented panic.
People closed their doors and huddled in a corner of the house, fearing that they would become victims of Su Peng's practice if they were not careful.
The "criminal" who had let Su Peng go naturally became the target of public criticism. Ye Meng'en became the target of people's curses and abuse.
Ye Meng'en had already suffered a severe blow due to the tragic death of his family at the hands of his lover, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse. At this moment, he was under tremendous pressure from public opinion from all sides. Finally, he could not bear it and became crazy.
However, Su Peng seemed to have given up on Ye Meng'en long ago and showed unusual indifference towards his former lover.
Even when facing the already crazy Ye Meng'en, he never showed up to meet him, as if the other party was just an insignificant speck of dust. This move undoubtedly disappointed the police who were squatting here day and night.
At this moment, Xie Qi stood quietly on the balcony, gazing at the dark and heavy sky in the distance.
He knew that they had very little time left. This strange scene was very likely a sign that Su Peng was about to face a thunder tribulation.
Once Su Peng successfully survives this disaster, his strength will surely improve by leaps and bounds. At that time, it will probably be harder than climbing to the sky to compete with him.
