Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

How immense was the strength in Qin Heng's fingers!

The bullets fired from his hand possessed destructive power that far exceeded the limits of any handgun on Earth!

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Two bullets streaked through the air like twin flames, tracing crimson lines as if tearing the air itself, emitting a shrill screeching noise!

They struck the middle-aged woman and the car unerringly!

BOOM! BOOM!

The moment the bullets struck, the car erupted as if a bomb had detonated, exploding on the spot!

The deafening roar echoed far and wide. The ground shook violently, flames raged fiercely, and thick smoke billowed into the sky!

"AAAHHH!! No, no, no! This can't be happening!!"

Amidst the flames, the middle-aged woman's agonized screams resounded—like the howls of vengeful spirits, piercing and horrific!

The sound made Wang Ruoxi's delicate frame tremble slightly, and she instinctively grabbed Qin Heng's arm. It was normal for her to be scared, as she was an inexperienced girl.

"It's all right now." Qin Heng gently patted Wang Ruoxi's head, consoling her. The gesture felt quite natural, considering Wang Ruoxi was just over 1.6 meters tall, petite next to Qin Heng's nearly two-meter frame.

"Thank you, thank you." Wang Ruoxi looked at the car engulfed in flames and the middle-aged woman. She took a deep breath and said, "If it wasn't for you, I don't know what would have happened today."

Her eyes, full of gratitude and admiration, fixed on Qin Heng. He appeared as a figure of immense strength, the likes of whom she had never encountered. Human nature tends to worship the strong, especially those with personal martial prowess.

In Wang Ruoxi's eyes, Qin Heng now seemed like an almost divine being!

He was truly amazing!

"It was nothing," Qin Heng said with a slight wave, looking up at the sky. "It's getting late. We should head back to the university, or we might miss the registration time."

"Yes, yes." Wang Ruoxi nodded, then furrowed her brows. Looking around, she said, "But we're in the middle of nowhere. How are we going to... AAAH!!"

Suddenly, she cried out in alarm. Her vision blurred, and she felt her body being held firmly, as if someone had picked her up.

Picked up!?

Wang Ruoxi immediately stiffened, her face flushing red. She realized she was being cradled in Qin Heng's arms, nestled against his chest.

"Wha-what!? What are you doing?" Wang Ruoxi panicked, completely flustered. Her voice trembled, and her mind was in total disarray, unsure of what to say.

She hugged her arms close, feeling extremely nervous. This was a princess carry!

Wang Ruoxi had never been so close to a boy before. She had rarely even spoken to boys in high school. Now, suddenly held in someone's arms, she was utterly bewildered.

However, this feeling isn't bad. His body is so warm, and is that a faint, pleasant scent? Wang Ruoxi sensed Qin Heng's natural and comforting presence, which instinctively drew her in.

She looked up at Qin Heng, struggling to suppress the fluttering in her heart, wanting to say something.

But now, held in Qin Heng's arms and so close to his face that she could feel his breath, she was once again captivated by his sharply chiseled features.

So handsome! Really, so handsome! Wang Ruoxi gazed at Qin Heng's face, slipping into a daze. She had never seen such an attractive man before.

Qin Heng, although not currently in the state of an Immortal or Heavenly God, had undergone refinement by Mana. His body had long since transformed, naturally elevating his looks far above those of an ordinary person.

Among mortals, it was rare to find someone as handsome as him.

Wang Ruoxi was a young woman fresh out of high school. Despite coming from a well-off family, she had been strictly raised and had little contact with boys.

Now, having met someone like Qin Heng—especially after being rescued by him like a damsel in distress—she would likely subconsciously compare all other men to him in the future.

The conclusion she would inevitably reach: compared to Qin Heng, every other man was trash!

"Don't be afraid. I'm just going to carry you to a more crowded place, then we can hail a taxi," Qin Heng said with calm assurance.

"Ah? You're going to carry me there?" Wang Ruoxi quickly shook her head. "That will tire you out. I can walk on my own. Please put me down."

"The nearest populated area is still over ten kilometers away," Qin Heng said, shaking his head. "Carrying you there will take no more than three minutes."

To avoid causing too much of a spectacle, Qin Heng didn't plan to reveal his true strength in front of Wang Ruoxi.

Supersonic flight speed was just too outrageous!

Over ten kilometers, carrying me, in three minutes!? Wang Ruoxi was still shocked. Even though Qin Heng had greatly reduced his speed, it was still beyond comprehension!

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

While Wang Ruoxi was still in shock, she felt wind rushing past her ears, like a Force 7 or 8 gale, making it hard to keep her eyes open.

She barely managed to look around. The scenery on either side was a blur, receding rapidly as she shot forward at extreme speed!

So fast! Incredibly fast!!

This speed... it seemed even faster than a car!

How is that possible!?

Qin Heng, no matter how capable, was still just a person, right? Even if he was powerful, how could he run so fast!?

Faster than a car!?

Incredible!!

Wang Ruoxi was astounded. She looked up at Qin Heng. His expression was completely relaxed, without the slightest sign of fatigue—not even a drop of sweat!

So relaxed! It was almost like he was on a leisurely stroll!!

An Immortal! He must be!

Wang Ruoxi was completely stunned by Qin Heng's physical prowess. She felt as though her entire worldview had been reshaped. It was too incredible! How could such a capable person exist!?

In less than three minutes, Qin Heng carried Wang Ruoxi to a relatively bustling area.

He set the thoroughly shocked Wang Ruoxi down.

Qin Heng hailed a cab.

Then, the two of them made their way to Beijing University.

「…」

At this time, the entrance of Beijing University was bustling with activity as new students were being welcomed.

It was a sea of people: incoming freshmen and their accompanying parents. The area was noisy and bustling.

However, the arrival of Qin Heng and Wang Ruoxi still attracted considerable attention.

After all, a handsome man and a beautiful woman always draw the eye, and Qin Heng and Wang Ruoxi were both exceptionally attractive.

Under the shade of a nearby tree, three young men were gathered.

They were all young masters from minor wealthy Beijing families, with peculiar tastes. They especially delighted in picking up girls from Beijing University and Tsinghua.

The leader, about eighteen or nineteen, sported a tuft of dyed blond hair, a Rolex watch, and a cigarette dangling from his lips.

The moment he saw Wang Ruoxi, his eyes lit up. He pointed at her and said to his two companions with a laugh, "That chick's not bad. Watch your bro here take her down!"

"I'll even film it when we're banging and share it with you guys! Definitely won't keep it to myself. A Beijing University girl... man, that's gotta be satisfying! HAHAHAHA!"

With that, the young man snuffed out his cigarette.

He casually threw it on the ground and swaggered toward Wang Ruoxi.

As for Qin Heng, who stood beside Wang Ruoxi, the blond-haired young man completely ignored him. In his eyes, beautiful women were all that mattered; other men were just trash, ants!

Especially some out-of-towner. A local Beijing rich kid like him could squash such a guy whenever and however he pleased!
