After realizing how sensitive Chen Yixuan was, Lin Tian didn’t dare to act rashly. He had only wanted to take a little advantage, but if he had continued along those lines, he would not have been taking a small advantage at all.
Afterwards, Lin Tian earnestly helped Chen Yixuan absorb the heterogeneous energy, and besides trembling, she didn’t make any other strange noises.
It was not until the last wisp of heterogeneous energy had completely vanished that Lin Tian realized Chen Yixuan had made no sound because she had been biting her wrist tightly.
"It’s done."
"Thank you."

Chen Yixuan spoke quietly, and Lin Tian’s eyes were involuntarily drawn to her body.
After the recent absorption of supernatural energy, Chen Yixuan was like someone who had just undergone strenuous exercise, with a fine layer of sweat all over her body.
Unlike the smell of men’s sweat, Chen Yixuan’s perspiration carried a faint fragrance, and her damp body added to her allure.
It’s said that women are made of water, and a woman drenched in water is indeed a true beauty.
"Aren’t you leaving? I’m going to get dressed."
"Ah, oh."
Only after being shouted at by Chen Yixuan did Lin Tian realize he should make his exit.
Looking back three times with each step he took, Lin Tian’s mind was filled with images of Chen Yixuan’s voluptuous and fair body.
As a police officer, Chen Yixuan naturally exercised regularly, giving her a more shapely body than the average woman, and her entire presence held a feline wildness.
After Lin Tian left, Chen Yixuan quickly put on some clothes and hurried into the bathroom.
Soon, the sound of water could be heard trickling from the bathroom.
Lin Tian had hoped to catch a glimpse of Chen Yixuan bathing, but she was very vigilant, and the door to the bathroom was firmly shut, denying Lin Tian any chance. Continue reading on freewebnovel
Listening to the sounds from the shower, the image of Chen Yixuan’s body became vivid in Lin Tian’s mind, causing him great restlessness.
If Lin Tian didn’t have matters to discuss with Chen Yixuan, he probably would have left already.
"Why haven’t you left yet?"
Chen Yixuan’s bath time was short compared to other women’s.
After finishing, she stepped out draped in a white bath towel. Seeing that Lin Tian was still there, her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
"Although the curse has been removed, I’m still not clear about its source. Chen Yixuan, who have you been in contact with these past few days?"
"Who could I have been in contact with? They’re all police officers, and of course, there’s you, this big rascal."
The recent help Lin Tian offered to Chen Yixuan in removing the supernatural energy was quite embarrassing for her; it was an ordeal, and Lin Tian took quite a bit of advantage. Now, Chen Yixuan harbored no small amount of resentment towards Lin Tian.
Lin Tian’s brow furrowed tightly; he wasn’t just asking casually.
All along, Lin Tian had known only about his own superpower, but now that supernatural energy had appeared in Chen Yixuan’s body, he couldn’t help but take it seriously.
Seeing Lin Tian looking so serious and not joking, Chen Yixuan also took on a serious demeanor.
After thinking for a while with her head tilted, she finally said.
"My life is pretty regular, just home and work every day. Other than colleagues, the outsiders I’ve been in contact with in the past few days—"
"Oh, right, Luo Li. We almost caught Luo Li based on clues before. But that guy was very cunning and managed to escape. When I tried to stop Luo Li, I don’t know how he did it, but I fell down and got hurt."
Thinking back, the reason Chen Yixuan fell was inexplicable, but she was too busy chasing Luo Li to give it much thought.
Now that she thought about it, it was probably during that time that Luo Li had cursed her.
"Luo Li?"
Lin Tian hadn’t expected that the supernatural energy in Chen Yixuan was manufactured by Luo Li. According to the system’s analysis, the main function of that mass of energy was to cause someone to be unlucky for three consecutive days.
According to Chen Yixuan, she was about to catch Luo Li when she suddenly fell and injured her hand. It must have been at that moment that Luo Li used his superpower on Chen Yixuan.
No wonder the divination failed to predict anything about Luo Li; it turns out this guy is no ordinary person.
Actually being a superpowered individual, possessing a superpower that causes misfortune, is indeed quite a unique ability.
Now it made sense why this thief Luo Li was so brazen and bold.
After all, an ordinary person suddenly gaining extraordinary abilities would naturally become inflated with pride.
Wasn’t Lin Tian cocky a few times himself after receiving the Supernatural Ability System?
It was just that Lin Tian managed to control himself well, whereas Luo Li’s ego had inflated a little too much.
"Yixuan, I can now confirm that Luo Li is the one who cursed you. I also understand why my divination failed before. This Luo Li is no ordinary person; you have to be careful and cautious when you try to catch him, and it would be best to notify me so I can help you,"
Being a superpowered individual himself, Lin Tian was well aware of the dangers posed by other superpowered individuals. They were not something that Chen Yixuan and the other police officers could deal with using just guns.
Unfortunately, Chen Yixuan clearly didn’t take it to heart; she was somewhat defiant and frustrated.
A curse? Next time I encounter Luo Li, I’ll blow his head off with one shot, then see how he curses me.
Lin Tian certainly didn’t know what was going on in Chen Yixuan’s mind. He had found something good in the Supernatural Ability System that could ensure Chen Yixuan’s safety.
"Yixuan, I have something for you. This thing can very effectively restrain a curse."
Chen Yixuan stared at the yellow talisman paper Lin Tian pulled out, thinking to herself, Is this thing really useful? Why does it feel like something from a zombie movie that you stick on a zombie’s forehead?
"How do you use this thing?"
"You just need to carry it with you. If anyone curses you, the Vajra Talisman will activate automatically to protect you from harm."
"You make it sound so mystical, but does it actually work? Should we test it out?"
Chen Yixuan was clearly skeptical, but Lin Tian wouldn’t let her test it.
Are you kidding me? He had exchanged Supernatural Points for that Vajra Talisman. After getting the Vajra Talisman, Lin Tian had only six Supernatural Points left.
It was just enough, in case he failed to capture Luo Li and faced the mission’s penalty.
"We can’t test it. I only have this one Vajra Talisman, and if you use it for a test, it’ll be gone."
"Then thank you for that."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yixuan immediately shelved the idea of testing it and started to think it might actually be a good thing. Otherwise, why would Lin Tian only have one?
Rarity makes a thing precious, after all.
Having handed over the Vajra Talisman to Chen Yixuan, Lin Tian had nothing more to do.
However, he was definitely going to take matters into his own hands when it came to capturing Luo Li.
After leaving Chen Yixuan’s home, Lin Tian did not return to school. He called Guo Rong and said he had something to deal with, asking Guo Rong to help him ask for a few days off.
Guo Rong assured him there was no need to ask for leave and he would cover for Lin Tian.
Lin Tian found a hotel near Chen Yixuan’s home, booked a room, and just as he entered the room, he received a phone call.
"Lin Tian, is that you? It’s Zhang Ya."
A pleasant voice came through the phone—it was Zhang Ya.
Remembering the beautiful girl, Lin Tian felt a headache coming on.
Truth be told, Zhang Ya did possess remarkable beauty, even slightly surpassing He Qianqian and Bu Mengting.
Unfortunately, Zhang Ya’s self-centered personality put Lin Tian off a bit, and he never felt any attraction toward her.
"Zhang Ya, I’ve made it very clear to you, I have a girlfriend. There’s no chance between you and me."
"You don’t have to lie to me. If you really didn’t like me, then why did you risk your life to save me that day?"
That day at the zoo, Zhang Ya almost lost her life—if not for Lin Tian, she would indeed have gone to another world.
It was precisely that incident that made Lin Tian leave a mark in Zhang Ya’s heart.
"I did that out of a sense of justice. Even if you were the ugliest creature, I would still have saved you."
"Fine, then why did you give me your phone number?"
"What kind of logic is that? Didn’t you ask me for my number? I gave it to you out of politeness. What does giving a phone number prove, anyway?"
Lin Tian was beginning to find Zhang Ya’s way of thinking stranger by the moment. She actually believed Lin Tian had a thing for her just because he gave her his phone number.
"Hmph, don’t lie to me. I know why you’re rejecting me. It’s just because you’re afraid your two girlfriends will get jealous, isn’t it? Let me tell you, Lin Tian, you belong to Zhang Ya. Sooner or later, you’ll realize that you only like me, Zhang Ya, and no one else."
After finishing her piece, Zhang Ya hung up the phone directly. Lin Tian shook his head, feeling that this matter would likely become quite troublesome later on.
After spending a night in the hotel, Lin Tian got up very early the next morning. He planned to secretly follow Chen Yixuan because it didn’t seem easy for him to encounter Luo Li on his own.
Following Chen Yixuan meant the entire police system was helping Lin Tian find Luo Li.
As expected, Chen Yixuan also got up early, had breakfast, and then went to work. Lin Tian followed her all the way without her noticing at all.
In the past few days, Chen Yixuan and her team had made preparations for dealing with Luo Li.
They split into several groups and quietly laid in wait on the streets.
Chen Yixuan acted alone, and Lin Tian followed behind, silently cursing Chen Yixuan for her recklessness.
Following Chen Yixuan into the downtown area, Lin Tian suddenly noticed that Chen Yixuan seemed a bit uncomfortable, her brow slightly furrowed, her gaze darting around.
Lin Tian originally thought Chen Yixuan was sick, but after Chen Yixuan made a couple of rounds, she found a restroom and went inside.
So she needed to use the restroom—that’s what had Lin Tian worried for so long.
This type of thing, of course, Lin Tian felt it was not appropriate to follow her inside.
But only a few minutes after Chen Yixuan entered, a loud scream suddenly came from inside.
Lin Tian immediately rushed in. He had the Invisibility Technique and wasn’t afraid of being discovered. Once inside, he saw Chen Yixuan’s pants pulled down to her ankles, with a pair of underwear embroidered with cartoon characters hanging around her knees.
