After the upgrade, Su Xin still had more than seventy thousand karma points left, enough for one more upgrade.
But he didn't rush into another upgrade.
Instead, he planned to first test the actual effect of the Flowers In Storm trait.
Su Xin looked around.
Previously, he had run around on main roads and small paths to complete the task, finally reaching the downtown area of this unfamiliar city to finish his progress.
The surroundings were bustling with people and vehicles, not quite as busy as the central business districts of those major cities, but still a part of the city with quite a number of pedestrians, making it inconvenient to test the Flowers In Storm trait here.
Su Xin hailed a cab, and once inside, he said to the driver:
"Sir, please take to the suburbs."
"The suburbs? Where exactly?"
"Anywhere quiet will do, I want to take a walk around."
The driver glanced at Su Xin through the rearview mirror, noticing the knife strapped on his back, his tall, sturdy physique suggesting explosive strength, clearly not soone to ss with.
"Going to the suburbs this late, specifically asking for a quiet place, this guy... he's not planning a robbery, is he?"
The driver thought silently.
He discreetly reached into a small pocket beside the seat cushion and felt a cold, hard touch, allowing himself a bit of peace.
"If you dare pull anything, you'll get a taste of bullets."
The driver silently promised, outwardly smiling warmly and said:
"Alright! I'll head north then. There are several mountains up north; it's quite peaceful there, the scenery is good too, perfect for clearing the mind."
"Okay."
Su Xin responded, turning his head to look out the car window, falling silent.
Currently, he was appearing as Feng Qian, so he had to avoid using various supernatural powers associated with the identity of 'Su Xin' under normal circumstances.
Instant Teleportation had to be avoided as much as possible.
As the cab was about to set off, three black cars swiftly approached from a distance, stopping directly in front of the taxi, occupying two lanes and blocking its path.
Under the driver's nervous gaze, seven or eight people erged from the cars. Except for the leader, a middle-aged man in a blue suit, the rest wore identical black suits and sunglasses, clearly not to be trifled with.
The middle-aged man in the blue suit walked to the taxi, politely tapping on the rear-side window.
The others quietly stood behind him.
Su Xin rolled down the window, looking at the middle-aged man indifferently: "What's up?"
The man smiled and said:
"Hello, Mr. Feng, I am Gu Zhongqing, the regional director of Silver Moon Continent at Blazing Company, affiliated with Golden Lion Financial Group. My apologies for the sudden interruption, I'm here to extend an invitation on behalf of Golden Lion Financial Group…"
Su Xin directly interrupted him, speaking coldly and dismissively:
"Since you know it's presumptuous, why are you seeking out? Why stop in front of my car?"
Gu Zhongqing's face stiffened.
As a mber of Golden Lion Financial Group, and the regional director of Silver Moon Continent at Blazing Company, he was quite an upper-echelon figure in Silver Moon Continent. Whether eting business moguls or conversing with political officials, the other party always displayed utmost courtesy.
He was highly respected among ordinary people.
Unexpectedly, this low-level person who luckily awakened supernatural powers dared speak to him this way.
This made Gu Zhongqing sowhat irked.
But considering the orders from above, thinking of the powerful abilities the other possessed, he restrained his temper, forcing a bright smile back onto his face, and continued:
"Mr. Feng, I sincerely apologize, my actions were indeed a bit presumptuous. However, it's also to expedite eting you, inadvertently neglecting etiquette. I ask for your understanding."
"No need to explain much, I don't have a good impression of Golden Lion Financial Group, so leave."
"Mr. Feng, won't you hear my offer?"
Seeing the opponent so persistent, Su Xin frowned, pushed open the car door, and stepped out.
Gu Zhongqing thought Su Xin had changed his mind, smiled, and said:
"Mr. Feng, our Golden Lion Financial Group is the largest arms conglorate globally, recognized worldwide for its capability and financial strength. We can definitely offer you satisfactory terms…uh!"
He didn't finish speaking before Su Xin grabbed him by the throat. Although the opponent's hand was just flesh and bone, it felt like a massive iron clamp, gripping his throat with unmatched force, rendering him speechless, making breathing extrely difficult, the cartilage in his throat seemingly crushed by the opponent's grip.
No, not seemingly.
It was truly crushed.
Su Xin held his throat, squeezing it down to the width of a woman's wrist, appearing extrely uncoordinated with the opponent's body.
He casually swung Gu Zhongqing's corpse, tossing it towards several black-suited n nearby.
"Bang!"
Just like bowling.
Gu Zhongqing's body spun in the air, crashing into the black suits, sending them flying two to three ters, each one coughing up blood.
Then Su Xin walked to the three black cars at the front, disregarding the drivers inside, directly thrusting his hand through the window, gripping the B-pillar, and consecutively flung the cars to the roadside, stacking them up.
This scene left the surrounding pedestrians completely stunned, watching Su Xin dumbfounded as the entire area fell into an eerie silence.
Su Xin returned to the cab, saying to the driver: "Let's go, set off."
