Chapter 569: Chapter 584: Sisters
The cry for help was extremely faint.
Ordinary people amidst the busy city traffic, with car horns blaring incessantly, would hardly hear it.
But Baiyu’s hearing was incredibly sensitive.
Elite Level Martial Artist.
With a lifespan exceeding two hundred years, a mere punch could easily pierce through steel plates.
A gentle pinch could crush a pebble into powder.
If Blood Qi were unleashed fully, he would become a human-shaped meat grinder.
With such physical capabilities.
His hearing naturally surpassed that of ordinary people.
Though the cry for help was faint, to Baiyu, it was very clear.
Moreover, the voice was continuously diminishing.
This indicated that the person might be fleeing, or possibly severely injured, on the brink of death.
Baiyu quickened his pace, rushing toward the direction the voice was coming from.
It was a patch of green grassland.
There were no street lamps.
In the distance were two residential buildings, extremely quiet.
Because it wasn’t close to the main road.
There weren’t many pedestrians.
Baiyu took just two steps to reach the area behind the green grassland.
He happened to see two men tearing at a girl.
The girl lay on the ground, continuously retreating; her clothes were tattered, covering only her private parts, revealing a large area of fair skin.
"Stop!"
Baiyu shouted coldly.
The two perpetrators turned their heads.
The Blood Qi from Baiyu, an Elite Level Martial Artist, emanated, causing their legs to tremble.
"Kid, what do you want?"
One steadied his initially panicked heart and shouted angrily at Baiyu.
He was met with Baiyu’s right hand.
He grasped the man as if he were a chick, lifted him up, and threw him away.
Boom!
A muffled sound.
The opponent crashed into a big tree, spitting blood from his mouth.
The person almost couldn’t catch his breath, nearly dying on the spot.
The other, witnessing this, screamed in terror, his face pale, and turned tail to flee.
The man Baiyu threw against the tree was also terrified to the core.
At this moment, regardless of his injuries, he stumbled to his feet, spitting blood as he fled into the distance.
Baiyu didn’t bother chasing them.
Being thrown like that, the man was half-dead, even if not fully.
In two steps, Baiyu reached the woman’s side.
Seeing she was only lightly bruised, Baiyu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are you okay?"
"I’m fine, thank you... thank you, benefactor."
The woman hurriedly thanked him.
She tidied her disheveled clothes, her eyes a bit unsettled, and stood up with Baiyu’s support.
However.
After taking just two steps, she cried out in pain and fell again.
Her leg was injured.
Not just bruised, seemed sprained too.
Baiyu supported her, examined her injury, realizing she couldn’t walk on her own.
This was the limit for ordinary people.
"Here, let me carry you out.
Where is your home?
I have a car parked outside, I can take you to a hospital near your home."
Baiyu proactively offered.
The girl quickly shook her head: "No need for a hospital, I have medicine for sprains at home, right in the Lower River District."
"Lower River District?" Baiyu frowned.
He’d never heard of this area in Villiduo.
"Outside the Outer City District, benefactor, are you from the Inner City District?"
The girl asked.
Baiyu nodded without hesitation.
He then remembered, in such a great metropolis like Villiduo, with a population in the billions.
The Inner City only occupied a small part.
Daily public order, etc., is managed by the Anomaly Bureau.
This department mainly deals with the Extraordinary and Martial Artist issues.
Whereas the Outer City District.
Mostly consisted of industrial areas and residential areas for Martial Artists’ families.
Apart from the industrial and trade zones, other areas were primarily for Martial Artists’ families, governed by the City Guard Army.
After all.
Civilian Martial Artists were a minority.
Most who could become Martial Artists either joined the East Prosperity Imperial’s army or became government employees.
Normal state employees were Martial Artists.
Equivalent to civil servants from the previous life.
These people’s families needed proper care to enable them to work with peace of mind.
All along.
The Imperial provided Martial Artists with extremely generous benefits and welfare.
Finally, outside these areas lay the regions where ordinary people lived.
Usually, living areas for ordinary people and Martial Artists, Extraordinary individuals were separated.
This aimed to prevent pollution, distortion incidents, and various conflicts.
In fact.
Many cases had already proven.
Living together with Martial Artists, Extraordinary individuals and ordinary people would eventually lead to issues.
Most Martial Artists found it difficult to control their Blood Qi; Extraordinary individuals also found it extremely difficult to control the energy emanating from Spirituality.
Over extended periods.
The only outcome for ordinary people was distortion.
However.
Baiyu was curious, this girl was clearly an ordinary person, why she appeared here.
This place, though not in the Inner City.
But was the core area of the Outer City District; perhaps she was a Martial Artist’s family?
He didn’t ask further.
Doing a good deed once is enough; too much concern, good deeds could turn bad.
...
An hour later.
The car steadily parked in a neighborhood in the Lower River District.
Baiyu got the girl out of the car, personally took her to her home.
The injury on her leg had improved significantly.
Earlier it was swollen and red, but now it was gradually subsiding, not as frightening.
"Okay, see you around.
Remember to be cautious when going out, nighttime isn’t particularly safe."
Seeing she was alright.
Baiyu bid farewell, closing the apartment door.
Boom.
With the door closing.
The girl’s gentle and grateful expression gradually vanished, her gaze becoming cold.
A minute.
Five minutes.
Ten minutes.
A full ten minutes passed, she sat on the sofa, motionless, akin to a wooden sculpture.
"Seems like he really left, sister."
Suddenly.
A different voice resounded in the quiet room.
In the shadow of the girl, another girl, whose appearance was seven to eight tenths similar, crawled out.
Like the ghost Sadako crawling out of a TV.
However.
Her appearance and aura were colder, prettier than the ghost.
"Yes, he didn’t suspect me.
Finally escaped.
If we were a day slower, the Anomaly Bureau would’ve found our hideout.
Then we’d have no escape.
Baiyu...
This newly promoted aristocrat, able to freely access all areas of Villiduo, earlier the City Guard Army checkpoint saw him and didn’t even dare to check."
The girl’s lips gradually curled into a smile.
The two stunning beauties gazed at each other, their joy almost uncontainable.
Finally.
They laughed loudly in the empty room.
This feeling of relief after surviving a disaster is indeed hard not to be ecstatic about.
"Sister, your plan was brilliant!"
"Your acting was excellent too, didn’t expose any flaws in front of him.
"Hehe, heaven hasn’t forsaken us."
"Having escaped this threat, with the Forbidden Divine Soldier Fragments in hand, the world is ours to venture."
The two sisters laughed happily in the room, shaking with joy.
However.
Suddenly, a loud crash echoed.
Boom.
The security iron door crashed onto the floor.
Baiyu stood beneath the door frame, the gaze of all three intertwined at this moment.
In an instant.
The laughter abruptly stopped.
Baiyu held the medicine for treating sprains.
"Seems you don’t need this after all."
He sighed, tossed the medicine aside, and drew out the Great Guan Blade from the scholar’s space: "This was one of my rare acts of kindness.
Why...
Do I always end up in these situations."
