Black energy surged wildly!
After multiple enhancements, Bai Feifei's physical stats were terrifying for a Rank 5 Scavenger, even on a global scale.
No one could react in time.
The Shar-Pei-faced woman only saw a blur before her eyes, and before the sound of tearing air could even reach her ears, she was already sent flying!
Her body slammed heavily into the wall, causing the entire room to shudder violently. Web-like cracks instantly exploded across the wall, and several wooden planks rattled loose from the ceiling.
The commotion was so massive, akin to an earthquake, that everyone present trembled.
Xu Mo stood right where the woman had just been, slowly retracting his extended leg.
In his mind, he instructed Bai Feifei:
“This person has issues. She’s clearly here to cause trouble.”
“If you really don't know what to say in the future, just remember your advantage and strike directly! Aren't you familiar with this kind of thing by now?”
Bai Feifei was utterly speechless. You're the one who's familiar with this! Since when did I become familiar with it?
A bizarre, deathly silence descended upon the room. After staring blankly for a few seconds, everyone stood up in unison!
Some instinctively backed away, while others reached directly for their weapons, but everyone shared the same expression of absolute disbelief!
They never expected this young girl in front of them to suddenly strike.
There had been no warning, no precursor, and no process of escalating conflict. She hadn't even uttered a single word before launching a flying kick!
This wasn't a matter of her backing anymore; this was simply lawless!
“Where did this trash come from? She looks just like a Shar-Pei.”
Xu Mo rotated his wrist and said softly.
“Turing City is so big, yet I don't even know you. This just proves you're just another nobody on the street, not even qualified to leave an impression on me.”
Everyone nearby was completely dumbfounded by his words.
Damn it, you just got here today. Who could you possibly know?!
Isn't this just pure provocation?
The Shar-Pei-faced woman coughed violently, spitting up two mouthfuls of blood.
She rolled out of the broken wall with great difficulty, raising her head to stare at “Bai Feifei” with shocked, bloodshot eyes.
Fear and utter confusion were mixed in her gaze.
What just happened? What kind of power was that?!
The others also stared at “Bai Feifei” in shock and suspicion.
In Turing City, the status and role of the Special Service Bureau were highly unique. At times, they even had to monitor personnel from other departments.
Therefore, anyone who could enter this place was an expert; otherwise, many operations would be impossible to carry out.
Even though Group 7 was relatively weak, more than half of its members were Edgerunners, and that woman was one of them.
But the problem was that they hadn't felt any Prophet-level pressure from Bai Feifei earlier.
They hadn't even sensed any aura of a powerhouse from her. Her presence had seemed even weaker than theirs.
But if she wasn't a Prophet, how had she pulled off that strike?
The atmosphere grew extremely tense.
Xu Mo, however, seemed completely oblivious as he continued to speak in an unbelievably arrogant tone:
“What's the matter? Do you have a bad relationship with Xie Xuan, which is why you came here to pick a fight?”
He kept his chin raised, looking down with disdain at the woman who was half-kneeling on the ground.
“Factional struggles, power play—what kind of absolute garbage dares to jump right in front of my face?”
A cold, murderous aura began to seep into his voice.
“You're courting death!”
As he spoke, he channeled the power of the Heart of the Real World within his chest, releasing the unique, oppressive weight of the black energy.
At the same time, he quietly twisted the skull bracelet on his wrist—Gaze of the Ancient One!
An invisible mental pressure spread out like a tide, targeting the Shar-Pei-faced woman with pinpoint accuracy.
Having not yet recovered from the heavy blow earlier, she was suddenly slammed by this terrifying, abrupt pressure, causing her face to instantly turn as pale as paper.
Her lips trembled. Under the intense wariness and fear, she was actually unable to utter another provocative word for a moment.
Around them, someone finally couldn't hold back anymore and questioned sharply:
“How could she just attack like that?!”
“She's an outsider working in a sensitive position like the Special Service Bureau, yet she directly resorted to violence? Shouldn't she be handed over to the judicial authorities?”
“Someone who has never even set foot in Turing City gets to be Group Leader right off the bat? On what grounds?!”
The crowd unleashed their auras, their faces tense as they warily watched Bai Feifei, while also darting glances at Xie Xuan nearby.
Xie Xuan desperately wanted to smooth things over, but he had no idea what to say. The series of unexpected events had left him in a daze.
Things had progressed to a point where a few words from him could no longer suppress it.
He was starting to buckle under the pressure.
He had already known that Bai Feifei had a bad temper, but now that he was personally experiencing it, he could finally empathize with those people in Dawn City back then.
No wonder she was the type of person who would kill a City Lord over a single disagreement...
“Everyone, calm down and step back...” Xie Xuan forced himself to speak, his mind racing for a solution.
Yet, right when the tension reached its absolute peak, Xu Mo laughed.
He didn't feel there was anything wrong with the current situation at all. On the contrary, it felt like he had entered his comfort zone.
Shifting his tone, he said in a low, certain voice:
“If Turing City wastes its time on these useless arguments every day, then it truly deserves to perish.”
Xie Xuan's expression instantly shifted. Here it came again—the warning of impending doom.
The others were also taken aback. You came barging in here in a huff, suddenly beat someone up, and now out of nowhere you're saying Turing City is doomed?
Seizing the opportunity while they were still dazed, Xu Mo pulled the situation back under his control:
“I must have too much free time on my hands to rush all the way here to save you guys.”
For some reason, his voice carried a touch of absolute confidence as he pulled up a chair and sat right down.
“Didn't you ask on what grounds?”
“Bring me those troublesome, unsolvable cases you have on hand.”
“I will solve them right now!”
As Xu Mo spoke, the corners of his mouth curled upward in an incredibly confident smirk.
He was going to show them what a true Old-Timer was.
The reason he had tried every means to enter the Special Service Bureau was partly because he valued its status, which would make it easier to get things done.
On the other hand, it was also because he had a "cheat" for these Special Service Bureau cases. Having played the game so many times, he could basically use wallhacks!
In Dawn City, because Liang Shuguang had too many schemes and the city perished early each time, Xu Mo didn't quite understand the nuances of many events.
But now that he was in Turing City, he would directly become the ultimate know-it-all. He would show them what it meant to be the only true Prophet in the room!
