After Qi Shu finished his meal, he sat on the sofa and watched the news. Suddenly, he heard a gunshot nearby. It was very close to him. It seemed to be a few hundred meters away.

Qi Shu immediately jumped out of the window and landed on the roof with a flip of his body. He immediately saw the situation unfolding in the distance. The gunshots were not aimed at an evolutionary beast. It was aimed at a living person.

Seven soldiers fired at the man. The man who had been attacked moved very quickly. He dodged most of the bullets like a monkey, but he could not avoid all of them. He had been shot several times. It seemed like his life was in danger.

Qi Shu felt bored when he saw his movement technique. His movement technique was way too clumsy. He looked like a monkey jumping around. However, it looked like he was about to break through the encirclement.

“Bang!”

However, a gunshot suddenly came from a tall building far away. The man’s right leg was then broken. The shot was so powerful that it left a large crater in the ground.

Qi Shu could tell that this shot had been fired by someone from a tall building in the distance. It should be someone from the military. At that moment, the group of soldiers chasing after him went forward and captured him alive. Then, they sent him back into the armored car and quickly drove away.

…

Qi Shu had also returned home. Around ten minutes later, he heard someone ring the doorbell. It was almost dark outside. He had to be careful if someone came looking for him.

Qi Shu went to the door and checked. He saw that it was Xiaoling’s father and the person who had come over with him the last time. He opened the door and let them in.

Yu Tianlu smiled and said, “Qi Shu, I passed by this place on a mission and came to have a chat with you!”

Although Qi Shu was puzzled as to why they were looking for him, he turned and said, “Please come in!” Could it be that the military had found out about what he was doing?

Yu Tianlu and Qi Shu sat down in the living room. As soon as Qi Shu sat down, he heard a flurry of gunshots and even the sound of something exploding. He was shocked.

Yu Tianlu seemed to have received some news through his headset. However, there was a rather unpleasant expression on his face. He then took a deep breath and said, “All of the evolutionary beasts in the city have been eliminated. Do you know why we still can’t relax the regulations at all?”

Qi Shu registered his question and said indifferently, “I’m very familiar with the surroundings here. Anyways, when that ancient tree mutated, many strangers appeared around it. I think it should be related to those people, right?”

Yu Tianlu nodded and spoke up in a straightforward manner.

“Yes, there are those reasons, but that’s not all! There is a notorious organization in the city that is committing evil. However, this organization still has some principles. They won’t attack ordinary people and will only kill evolvers and mutants. Several stronger evolvers in the city have been killed.”

Qi Shu was slightly stunned. It seemed like his identity had been exposed. However, when he thought about it, she was just a ten-year-old girl. Even if she did not tell the truth, her father would have been able to tell.

An organization that was specialized in killing evolvers and mutants. This seemed to be bad news for him. He might be targeted by these guys.

Yu Tianlu added, “We captured two people and killed four people within a day of moving into Yangcheng. It’s very likely that more people still exist. It’s an organization called the Deity Organization.”

“After some questioning, we discovered that they were looking for a person who had mastered the fist technique. They killed anyone who knew the fist technique. Before they died, they were tortured cruelly, and they died a horrible death. I wonder if you know this person. If you do, we will provide them with some protection. At the very least, we will ensure their safety.”

Yu Tianlu was implying something. However, he didn’t think that Qi Shu was the master of this fist technique. Instead, he guessed that Qi Shu was the disciple of this person. Now that he came to look for him, Qi Shu had better tell his master to come to the government immediately. Otherwise, there would definitely be danger.

He really did not believe that someone at Qi Shu’s age could be that strong. He had done some research when he went back. Qi Shu was just an ordinary person with good grades. He was not the one who killed the stray dog. There must be someone else.

Qi Shu must be related to this person or he must know him. Otherwise, he would not have saved his daughter by coincidence.

When Qi Shu heard this, his heart sank. It seemed that the person that he killed was from this organization. From the way that he killed him, it was easy to tell that his death was caused by his fist technique.

However, he did not want to be exposed in front of everyone. He only wanted to develop himself peacefully. After all, the enemy was in the dark. If he was exposed, who knew what he would face?

Qi Shu already knew what was going on now. He just had to stabilize his growth carefully until they could not do anything to him.

Qi Shu smiled and said straightforwardly, “How can an ordinary person like me know a master of fist techniques? You’ve found the wrong person! However, I’m very curious. What kind of organization dares to go against the military?”

Yu Tianlu sighed lightly in his heart when he heard this, but he still explained things to him.

“This organization is a transnational organization. Of course, no one dares to fight us head-on. However, we are in the open, and they are in the dark. Furthermore, our power is very scattered, which is why we are in the current situation. They came here to fight for the source of life that the ancient tree gave birth to. You should have heard about it. The source of life is something that can turn ordinary people into evolvers.”

“We received news that this organization is being overseen by an extremely strong person. They came here for the source of life and want to cross the Martial Artist realm to become a Martial Master!!”

Qi Shu was stunned when he heard this. He immediately asked, “Martial Master?”

Yu Tianlu said solemnly, “Yes, a Martial Master! Martial Artists are divided into stages 1 through 9. When they reach stage 9, there will be a surge of energy in their bodies. We call it the True Qi, but it can’t be activated on its own. It can only increase their strength.”

“However, once you become a Martial Master, you can control your True Qi at will. Ordinary firearms are no longer able to harm you. Only heavy firearms or sniper rifles will be able to harm you. Each and every Martial Master out there is a great threat to us.”

When Qi Shu registered his words, he felt a yearning within his heart. The Martial Master rank was definitely the watershed of human strength.

Qi Shu immediately asked, “What about those evolutionary beasts? Will they also have such a realm?”

Yu Tianlu said, “The evolutionary beasts that we cleared out are all at the Soldier level. They will evolve to the Warrior level in the future. At this stage, they will gain some intelligence.”

“Under normal circumstances, evolutionary beasts do not have any special abilities, but there are special cases. Just like humans, there will be special mutants. However, regardless of humans or beasts, mutants are naturally powerful. Mutants will definitely win in a battle between two people of the same rank.”

Qi Shu nodded. From the looks of it, the beasts that he killed were all evolvers of the Soldier level. They were not too strong and they simply relied on their instincts to fight. Even if he encountered a Warrior, he had to escape.

Qi Shu smiled and said, “Hehe, we don’t have any Warrior-rank beasts here, right?”

Yu Tianlu’s expression darkened slightly upon hearing this, and he hesitated momentarily before replying to him.

“It probably won’t be long before it’s born. That’s because most of the source of life has entered Yangcheng Mountain Range, causing it to become a heaven for evolutionary beasts. It’s only a matter of time before a Warrior-rank beast is born.”

“Our people have also suffered many casualties in the mountain range. We’ve also discovered the corpses of many people from the Deity Organization. Our men have already retreated and are waiting for the reinforcements sent over by the higher-ups!”

At this moment, Yu Tianlu seemed to have received another message through his earpiece. He immediately stood up and said, “Yangcheng has been closely monitored and sealed up by us in order to prevent anyone from entering the city and causing trouble. It’s fine as long as you don’t go out. We’re leaving.”

The two of them then left. They seemed to be in a hurry. It was as if they had received some bad news.
