“You’re Gao Xuan?”
Zhang Lifeng squinted his eyes as he studied the man opposite him. Even though the man was wearing a mask and sunglasses that nearly covered his entire face, just the outline of his face revealed that he was exceptionally handsome.
Gao Xuan nodded slightly. “I am. Have you done what I asked you to do?”
Zhang Lifeng took out a small box. Two metal chips the size of a fingernail were inside the box. “Numerical identity chips approved by the Pegasus Planet Allied Government,” he said.
Gao Xuan waved his hand. Yun Qingshang, who was standing off to the side, came forward and placed a leather case in front of Zhang Lifeng.
“This is 50 thousand grams of gold.”
Zhang Lifeng opened the case and looked inside. There were five gold bricks. He picked up a piece and weighed it in his hand, then scanned it with his smartwatch.
The smartwatch he was wearing was a specialized tool. It had a unique detection function that could detect the basic components of an object.
The results of the scan quickly appeared: 99.99% pure gold.
Zhang Lifeng immediately closed the leather case and put it by his feet. Gao Xuan was about to reach his hand out for the numerical identity chips when Zhang Lifeng abruptly locked the box.
He said with a dark expression on his face, “You can’t touch these yet.”
Zhang Lifeng was about fifty years old. He was balding and had a crass appearance. He had been a Security Officer for many years and looked exceptionally fierce when his expression turned dark.
Gao Xuan didn’t forcefully snatch the box from him. Instead, he slightly knitted his brows and asked, “What do you mean by this, Office Zhang?”
Zhang Lifeng said in a deep voice, “We’re making a transaction, yet you’re hiding your face. You’re not being sincere.”
“That’s easy.” Gao Xuan took off his mask and sunglasses. “I have an eye problem. I’m not deliberately trying to be mysterious.”
Zhang Lifeng looked at Gao Xuan’s face in a daze. He did not think about responding.
This was the first time he’d seen such a handsome man in his entire life. No, even the beautiful ladies he’d seen in his lifetime weren’t as good looking as Gao Xuan, who was a blind man no less!
Gao Xuan felt a little frustrated that he was being ogled at. They were both men. Was there really a need for him to observe him so closely?
“I’ve shown my sincerity,” he said. “Isn’t it about time you give me the items?”
Zhang Lifeng came to his senses, but he didn’t release his grip on the box. “To tell you the truth, the number chips have been registered, but they haven’t been activated on the allied government’s website.”
“What are your conditions?”
Gao Xuan had known that the other party wouldn’t be honest, so this wasn’t unexpected.
Yun Qingshang, who was standing beside Gao Xuan, looked coldly at Zhang Lifeng. She would punch the other party’s head open the moment he made her an inappropriate request.
Zhang Lifeng stared at Gao Xuan for a few seconds, then suddenly pointed at him and said, “I want you!”
Gao Xuan was shocked. D*mn it. This development was unexpected.
The stone-faced Yun Qingshang couldn’t help but burst out laughing. It turned out the lecher Zhang Lifeng had his eye on Gao Xuan!
Gao Xuan turned to look at Yun Qingshang, a little annoyed. “Find something funny?”
Yun Qingshang shook her head expressionlessly. “No.”
Zhang Lifeng, who was completely being ignored, was unhappy. “What do you mean?”
“Sorry to keep you waiting,” Gao Xuan said as the blood-colored blade of light in his hand shimmered. The God Slaying Sword pierced through the middle of Zhang Lifeng’s forehead.
Zhang Lifeng didn’t have time to react. He instantly burst into an orb of blood-colored light.
Gao Xuan murmured, “D*mn it, you’re so disgusting. Disappear quickly.”
He then told Yun Qingshang, “Transform into Zhang Lifeng and head to the security bureau, then access the optical network and activate the identity chips. We can then drink a little bit of alcohol before driving up the mountain…”
Blackwater City was surrounded by a primordial forest. There were many wild beasts in the area. It wasn’t completely out of the ordinary for Zhang Lifeng to just vanish in the middle of the woods.
“All right. But you killed him just like that. We don’t even know his password…” Yun Qingshang told Gao Xuan. She was a little upset, but she also felt like laughing.
