The current situation in Shanghai was sothing the middle-aged man had heard about.
He did not think that Xu Fan could be a match for Situ Jing.
Even if he were to fully absorb the power contained in the Zhu Ling blood, there would still be no hope.
At most, the Zhu Ling blood could only help him reach the peak of the Innate Realm and certainly not break through Innate to peek into the Entering Dao Realm.
You see, Situ Jing had already stepped into the Entering Dao Realm. With Xu Fan's strength, the chances of defeating him were almost zero.
"Don't worry, once you help retrieve the item, I can put in a good word for you with Situ Jing."
"By then, he should be willing to resolve this conflict with you."
The middle-aged man seed very confident in his own background as he spoke to Xu Fan.
However, Xu Fan had no intention whatsoever of agreeing.
He shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have no plans to reconcile with him."
Han Dongxu was injured all because of that guy. How could there be any talk of reconciliation when he had a vendetta to avenge no matter what?
That guy simply thought Xu Fan was no match for Han Dongxu based purely on their cultivation levels.
But what he didn't realize was that Xu Fan had more than just his cultivation level.
"Alright then..."
Without trying to persuade Xu Fan, the middle-aged man showed a hint of regret in his eyes, then tossed a small brocade pouch to Xu Fan.
"Inside is the thod for using the Zhu Ling blood, as well as the information for the task you're to help with. Good luck."
After handing over the pouch to Xu Fan, the middle-aged man's figure flashed and then disappeared.
Xu Fan held the pouch, recalling the man's look of pity, and his lips slowly curled into a smile.
"Is this... him not favoring my chances?"
Shaking his head, Xu Fan didn't dwell on it any longer and returned to the villa imdiately.
After greeting Gongsun Qin, Xu Fan got into his car, ready to find Qin ngyue.
That woman had taken on such a dangerous task behind his back, and he definitely needed to have a serious talk with her.
Soon, Xu Fan drove to the police station where Qin ngyue was.
Having parked the car, he walked inside.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
Just as he approached the entrance, he was stopped by two police officers on guard.
Xu Fan paused, then with a slight smile, explained, "I'm looking for Qin ngyue."
"The captain?"
It was rare for a man to co looking for Qin ngyue at the police station, and upon hearing Xu Fan's explanation, the two officers curiously sized him up.
At first glance, he looked sowhat familiar.
After taking a few more careful looks, they instantly rembered why he seed familiar.
Previously, when a playboy relentlessly pursued Qin ngyue and she grew tired of it, she had distributed a photo, telling him she was already spoken for.
At the ti, the playboy took the photo and arrogantly said that within three days, he would make Qin ngyue's boyfriend break up with her voluntarily.
And then? For so reason, the guy just disappeared without a trace.
Back then, a group of brothers gathered to join in the fun and had looked at the photo; they only rembered that when they teased Qin ngyue with the photo, this tomboy rarely blushed.
This was actually their first ti seeing the man in person.
Anyone who could rein in Qin ngyue couldn't be just an ordinary man, and now their gazes toward Xu Fan were filled with a mix of admiration.
"Buddy, go on in. The captain is inside. Just ask around and you can find her office."
"Thanks a lot."
The polite tone from the two officers made Xu Fan a bit puzzled.
He didn't seem to have t them before; why did it feel like they were quite familiar with him?
Shaking off the thought, Xu Fan walked into the police station and after a quick inquiry, he made his way to Qin ngyue's office.
Knock knock knock.
"Co in."
Having arrived at the door of Qin ngyue's office, Xu Fan knocked on the door, and after a short while, he heard Qin ngyue's voice coming from inside.
Then he opened the door and walked in.
"Xu... Xu Fan, you, you, you, how did you co here!"
Thinking it was a colleague, Qin ngyue didn't pay much attention at first, intently reviewing the information about the drug lord collected over the past few days.
Not until Xu Fan coughed did she realize.
Right then she promptly gathered the information she had been annotating.
"What's wrong? Not happy to see ?"
"I see your colleagues seed quite happy to welco , though?"
Seeing the woman's nervous face, Xu Fan couldn't help but want to laugh.
Clearly, she was worried that if he found out she was involved in the undercover operation, he would be concerned for her.
"Oh no..."
When Xu Fan teased her like that, Qin ngyue's heart rate instantly quickened by several beats!
Xu Fan didn't ntion it, and she had almost forgotten about it.
She had told everyone that this... this guy was her boyfriend...
If he found out, she would die of embarrassnt!
Using this guy as a shield was indeed effective; the fops who dared to harbor designs on her would get weak-kneed at the ntion of his na.
But she hadn't told him about this...
"Hmm? What's wrong with you?"
Feeling anxious inside, she saw Xu Fan curiously ask.
Qin ngyue quickly adjusted her expression and said seriously, "Nothing... nothing..."
"Anyway, what did you co here for? Why don't, let's go outside to talk, it's not very convenient here."
You can't disguise the sun with a sieve; the longer Xu Fan stayed, the more likely it was for her colleagues to spill the beans. Qin ngyue stood up, intending to pull him out of the police station.
"It's quite convenient to talk here; why leave?"
At that mont, Qin ngyue, dragging and pulling him, found Xu Fan had no intention of getting up.
What he wanted to discuss with her was related to her work.
It was naturally most appropriate to talk about it here.
"Xu Fan! You!"
Xu Fan's attitude nearly drove Gongsun Qin to explode with anger!
But thinking of his temper, she instantly deflated like a punctured ball and softened her stance.
"Xu Fan, I'm begging you, let's not chat here, huh…"
"Hmm?"
Was Qin ngyue cooing at him now?
As if discovering a new continent, Xu Fan looked at the woman clutching his arm, his eyes nearly popped out.
Heavens, had this woman actually learned to act coy?
"Sothing's not right, ng Yue, I feel like you're hiding sothing from ?"
Sniffing sothing amiss on Qin ngyue's face, Xu Fan began to eye her seriously.
The things she was hiding from him were probably not as simple as just that one mission.
"Xu Fan! How can you be such a jerk!"
"I, I'm being affectionate with you, and you're not even pleased?"
She thought that by acting affectionate, she could seem less suspicious, but Xu Fan was only growing more doubtful.
Imdiately, she glared at Xu Fan angrily.
"Of course, I like it when ng Yue acts coy with ."
"However, why exactly, that I am very curious about."
Xu Fan chuckled evilly and pulled Qin ngyue, clad in her police uniform, into his embrace.
