Force shutdown, simple and effective.

Zhou Xiao grabbed the fallen staff member of the Earth Balance Bureau with his left hand and dragged him into the dark alley.

"It's all done..."

Zhou Xiao casually tossed the man into a corner, then looked at Bai Lu, who was hiding behind a box.

"Didn't I tell you to get rid of him? Why did you knock him out...?"

Bai Lu stepped forward and checked the man's breath. She felt he was still breathing and breathed a sigh of relief before looking at Zhou Xiao and asking him a question.

"Damn it... we can't stay here any longer."

“Speak…” Zhou Xiao asked.

"say what?"

"Illness..."

"Oh, your illness is somewhat similar to that of a demonic possession..." Bai Lu briefly explained Zhou Xiao's condition:

"He is restless and plagued by nightmares day and night, and the frequency is increasing... In time, he will be unable to distinguish between dreams and reality... That will inevitably lead to a bloody disaster..."

"And you're a short-lived creature. If you truly fall into demonic possession one day, dealing with you will be very easy..." Bai Lu vaguely estimated Zhou Xiao's strength...

Anyone who has fought against Zhou Xiao would deeply understand what she meant.

Cocolia from Arilo VI declared, "It's all fake...it's all just bubbles..."

The Destruction Commander, the Great Lord of Annihilation, Fenfeng, exclaimed, "Ah, yes, yes, yes..."

Star Core Hunter Kafka stated, "Society is simple; what's complicated is people..."

Kafka: Huh? Why am I on this list? (Strange)

...

After hearing Bai Lu's diagnosis, Zhou Xiao fell into some thought.

It's hard to distinguish between dreams and reality...

"So what? What do I need to do to avoid the ominous sign you mentioned..."

Hearing Zhou Xiao's question, Bai Lu cleared her throat and then held out her hand: "Medicine Gold..."

Didn't you say it was free?

"Consultation is free...medicine is charged." Bai Lu said there was nothing wrong with that.

“...”

Zhou Xiao was silent for two seconds after hearing this. He looked down at Bai Lu and then said:

"My Lady Dragon Girl, you wouldn't want these people to know your whereabouts, would you?"

"?"

"You're threatening me?!"

Bai Lu immediately tried to run away after hearing this. She was very fast, but she was no match for Zhou Xiao. Before she could even get out of the way, Zhou Xiao grabbed her by the collar and pulled her into the air.

"Let go of me... or I'll kick you! I really will!"

Bai Lu swung in mid-air, but no matter how much she swung, her short legs couldn't kick Zhou Xiao's face.

"Short-lived species... I urge you to be kind..."

"Kind?"

Upon hearing this, a barely perceptible smile flashed across Zhou Xiao's face. His two scarlet eyes gleamed with a hint of malice as he stared at Bai Lu in mid-air before reintroducing himself.

"It seems... I need to reintroduce myself: Star Core Hunter..."

Zhou Xiao paused for a moment before continuing with the name: "Star Core Hunter—Blade, do you think it's appropriate to talk about kindness with a Star Core Hunter...?"

Even the sharpest blade cannot escape being stabbed in the back.

Zhou Xiao, disguised as Ren, gave Bai Lu a small shock.

...

"Star Core... Hunter?" Little White Dew's expression didn't change much upon hearing this:

"I don't know... I've never heard of it. What does it do?"

Three questions about quality.

"???"

Zhou Xiao was somewhat surprised to see that Bai Lu had never even heard of Star Core Hunter.

Have you really lost your reputation after just a few days of silence? You've never even heard of Bai Lu?

"No...you haven't heard of Star Core Hunter?"

Why should I have heard of Star Core Hunters?

Bai Lu scratched her short legs and continued, "My daily life consists of getting up to see patients and going to bed... I don't have time to hear about Star Core Hunters."

Bai Lu said that the elders in her clan were very strict... She was still a little kid, what did she know about the Star Core Hunter?

"I see... Just remember, Star Core Hunters aren't good people... They do all sorts of bad things." Zhou Xiao explained a bit to Bai Lu.

"Aren't you a Star Core Hunter? Who would smear themselves like that..."

“You’re still a child, you’ll understand later,” Zhou Xiao said.

"I'm not small! I'll grow taller!"

"?"

"I didn't say you were short, did I?"

"I really will grow taller!" Bai Lu emphasized again.

"I'll waive the medicine fee for you! I'll prepare the medicine for you when I return to the Pill Refining Division..." Bai Lu emphasized before sighing.

"Medication won't be very effective for your illness. What's more important is to take it easy, maintain emotional stability, and not think about too many random things!"

"Is this alright now? But you can't tell the Earth Balance Bureau or the Pill Refining Bureau about my whereabouts..."

After listening to Bai Lu's proposed treatment plan, Zhou Xiao fell into deep thought.

He felt that Bai Lu seemed to have said a lot, but also seemed to have said nothing at all...

"Ugh, I've been talking nonsense with a kid for ages."

Zhou Xiao began to reflect on himself, and after reflecting, he attributed the waste of time to the ominous sign that Bai Lu had given him while he was eating melons.

As he spoke, he put Bailu down.

"You can leave now."

"What kind of look is that! Are you questioning my medical skills?!"

Bai Lu seemed to see the doubt in Zhou Xiao's eyes, a look like that of a beautiful woman looking you up and down with a slightly disdainful expression, saying:

"Is this any good, Greyhound...?"

Bai Lu had never been treated like this before.
