Chapter 229 Dual-Skill Ability User
Qin Feng's pupils shrank sharply as he looked around in disbelief.
"The ability to disappear? You're a dual-elemental ability user?"
After the initial shock came ecstasy. Today, he was determined to kill this man and claim this powerful dual-elemental ability for himself!
But before his laughter subsided, he suddenly sensed danger and tried to dodge, but it was too late; a sharp pain shot through his shoulder!
A transparent short sword made entirely of wind energy pierced his body without warning!
"Ugh!" Qin Feng grunted, reacting extremely quickly as he retreated rapidly, while simultaneously launching metal blades indiscriminately in all directions, which clanged and clattered against the ruins.
Fu Jinxing stepped back slightly, his brows furrowed.
Unfortunately, the opponent's instinctive dodge in the critical moment caused the strike to miss slightly, failing to be fatal.
Just as Fu Jinxing was gathering his energy, preparing to launch a second, deadly attack,
"Qin Feng! What's wrong with you?"
Hearing the commotion, Shen Qianqian ran over. Seeing the wound on Qin Feng's shoulder and the mess on the floor, she paled and rushed to his side, asking, "What happened?"
Qin Feng immediately said, "It was Hu Jun. He deliberately hurt me."
Not far away, Fu Jinxing had already revealed his figure, which was spotted by Shen Qianqian, who was searching for him everywhere.
"Is it really you? Why did you hurt him?" Shen Qianqian couldn't understand.
Both are her children, and she can't bear to part with either of them.
Fu Jinxing remained expressionless, his voice as cold as ice: "Because he wanted to kill me and steal my superpowers."
These words were like a thunderclap, causing everyone present, including Qin Feng, to change their expressions.
Qin Feng was completely puzzled: How could he possibly know? He had never revealed it to anyone outside the family.
Before he could figure it out, Fu Jinxing dropped an even more devastating bombshell, his gaze sweeping over Shen Qianqian and the several men behind her who looked on with suspicion and uncertainty: "He's a plunderer of superpowers, strengthening himself by stealing the abilities of others. You need to think carefully about whether any powerful superpowered individuals in your teams have disappeared because of his appearance?"
Shen Qianqian was suddenly stunned, then as if she had been enlightened, she turned to look at Qin Feng in disbelief.
She recalled Ren Xu, a fire-type ability user she had quite liked who had mysteriously disappeared before, and her voice trembled: "Ren Xu... did you kill him?"
Qin Feng, clutching his wound, immediately denied it: "Qianqian, don't listen to his nonsense, I didn't!"
"But...they all never came back after going out with you alone..."
As Shen Qianqian spoke, she subconsciously led her people back a few steps, widening the distance between herself and Qin Feng, her eyes filled with fear and suspicion.
Fu Jinxing stood quietly in place, coldly observing the impending dog-eat-dog drama.
A faint energy quietly gathered at the fingertips hidden in the sleeve.
If their infighting isn't deadly enough, he wouldn't mind... adding insult to injury.
Qin Feng's shoulder wound was still throbbing, and blood had soaked through his dark clothes.
"Those were just coincidences..."
He glanced at Fu Jinxing, who stood calmly not far away, as if he were merely watching a play, and clenched his teeth inwardly.
This man is not only incredibly strong, but what's even more terrifying is that he seems to have discovered his own greatest secret!
How did he know that?
But now is not the time to delve into it.
Qin Feng suppressed his surging killing intent and surprise, quickly putting together an expression of hurt and deep affection on his face, his gaze fixed on Shen Qianqian:
"Qianqian, don't believe him! This world is full of dangers, their misfortunes are just a coincidence! He's just making this up to drive a wedge between us because he sees you doting on me the most right now! Think about it, if I really had that kind of power, why wouldn't I treat those around you..."
He glanced at the other men with disdain. "These men? If I really wanted to, I could kill them all."
Upon hearing this, Fu Jinxing scoffed, his voice clear and icy, interrupting Qin Feng's performance: "Why would I sow discord? I never intended to stay in your team. I'm just reminding you that there's a ticking time bomb among us. As for why he hasn't targeted the others yet..."
He paused meaningfully, "Perhaps it's just that the right opportunity hasn't been found yet, or... it hasn't been fattened up yet?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Qin Feng retorted sharply. If those men hadn't provoked him, they wouldn't have been worth killing.
But Fu Jinxing's words were like cold needles, piercing the hearts of the other male superhumans present.
Regardless of whether it's true or not, Qin Feng's appearance itself brought a strong sense of threat.
They recalled their companions who had mysteriously disappeared before. Each of them was quite powerful, and each time... it seemed that they were more or less connected with Qin Feng.
“Qianqian,” a tall, thin man spoke first, his eyes fixed warily on Qin Feng, “I think Hu Jun is right. The time Ren Xu had his accident, he went out with Qin Feng to search for supplies and never came back!”
"Yes! Zhang Hao also disappeared after being paired with Qin Feng!"
Another burly man echoed in a deep voice, taking a step forward and subtly shielding Shen Qianqian behind him, "I hadn't thought about it carefully before, but now that I think about it, it's too much of a coincidence!"
What deep feelings did Shen Qianqian have for Qin Feng?
It was merely a matter of being attracted to his looks, the fleeting novelty, and his charm in bed.
At this moment, listening to the accusations from the men around her, filled with fear and anger, and comparing them to Fu Jinxing's powerful, aloof yet even more captivating aura, the scales tipped rapidly.
Moreover, if Qin Feng really killed Ren Xu... that would be unforgivable, as he was the man she was most satisfied with before!
Just as she was about to speak, Fu Jinxing said, "You two can keep at it. I have other things to take care of."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Shen Qianqian looked at Fu Jinxing, who had turned to leave, her voice tinged with urgency and allure: "Wait! If I... refuse to let him travel with us anymore, would you be willing to stay and be with me?"
She was confident in her charm and the resources provided by the system, believing these were conditions the other party could not refuse.
Fu Jinxing didn't stop walking, nor did he even turn his head. Only his cold words drifted on the wind: "I don't want to. Whether you kill him or not is your own business. I just made my move only because he wanted to kill me, nothing more."
His figure blurred, his speed suddenly increased, and he was about to disappear around the corner of the ruins.
"Hu Jun! Wait...don't go! I still have something to say!"
Shen Qianqian panicked and, no longer caring about Qin Feng, stomped her feet and shouted.
Seeing that Fu Jinxing showed no sign of stopping, she hurriedly ordered the two men beside her, "Quick! Go and stop him! You must bring him back!"
The two men hesitated. They wanted to deal with Qin Feng, the obvious threat, first, but ultimately dared not disobey Shen Qianqian's orders. They gritted their teeth and quickly chased after the direction where Fu Jinxing had disappeared.
The remaining men immediately focused their attention on the injured Qin Feng, their eyes filled with hostility.
