Su Xi watched Chang Yifan make a move without changing her expression.
With such little cultivation, he still wanted to make a move on her.
He was simply overestimating himself.
Chang Yifan initially thought he would surely take Su Xi's life this time, but he found that Su Xi showed no reaction at all to his direct and penetrating attack.
Not only was there no hint of pain, but he even discovered an expression of enjoyment on Su Xi's face, as if his magic was acting like a free massage for her.
"How could this be?" Chang Yifan couldn't believe what he was seeing.
For the first time in many years, he doubted his own abilities and couldn't believe it was real.
Su Xi heard Chang Yifan's question and took a step forward, getting a little closer to him.
Though it was just a short step, it carried immense pressure. Under this pressure, Chang Yifan couldn't help but retreat a step, his clothes instantly soaked with cold sweat.
Chang Yifan looked at Su Xi with a pale face, mumbling, "What do you want to do to me?"
He was truly baffled and frightened by Su Xi's methods.
Su Xi looked at Chang Yifan for a few moments, her deep eyes scrutinizing him, and asked, "Who sent you here?"
She absolutely did not believe that an inspector would have nothing better to do than to come here and cause her trouble. There had to be someone else behind Chang Yifan.
Su Xi's voice was like thunder, causing Chang Yifan's mind to falter for a moment. Fortunately, the cultivation technique he was practicing automatically circulated, helping him regain his senses.
Once Chang Yifan sobered up, he instinctively shouted, "How dare you question me? Do you know who I am?"
Since their establishment, inspectors had never been subjected to such humiliation. Su Xi was playing with fire. To provoke them was a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of relatives.
Seeing that Chang Yifan was still being stubborn, Su Xi shook her head helplessly, a gentle smile like that for a fool appearing on her face.
Those familiar with Su Xi would know that this smile meant she was already harboring killing intent, not showing her kindness.
Su Xi had kindly questioned Chang Yifan earlier to spare him some suffering. But since Chang Yifan was unappreciative, she couldn't be blamed.
Killing someone meant nothing to her. Even some so-called inspector wouldn't be taken seriously by her.
Sensing the killing intent erupting from Su Xi, Chang Yifan's face showed shock. He asked in a slightly trembling voice, "You intend to kill me?"
His most potent attack had no effect on Su Xi, which could only mean that Su Xi's cultivation was far superior to his, and taking his life would be even easier.
He was truly in danger of being killed by Su Xi now.
Previously, his official uniform had deterred everyone from offending him. He had subconsciously forgotten his own cultivation, which was only at the Golden Core stage.
Su Xi shook her head when she heard Chang Yifan's question.
There were always fools who asked the obvious.
Ignoring Chang Yifan, Su Xi turned her gaze to the trembling official beside them and commanded, "Get me two more transit permits immediately."
The official nervously glanced at Chang Yifan, then at Su Xi, unsure of whom to obey. Neither choice was favorable to him.
Seeing the hesitant official, Su Xi tapped the table and directly stated the choice, "Do you want to die now, or die later?"
The official understood Su Xi's implied meaning and immediately nodded frantically, "I'll process it right away."
If he didn't agree to Su Xi now, he would die soon. If he agreed to Su Xi's request, he might have a slim chance of survival.
Therefore, for his own life, he knew exactly what to do.
Living was the most important thing.
Soon, he produced two new transit permits.
Chang Yifan, standing nearby, watched as Su Xi was about to obtain the transit permits. Anxious, he didn't bother to think about the situation and made a move to stop her.
But Ouyang Chu Ge, who was standing beside her, was already prepared. The moment Chang Yifan moved, Ouyang Chu Ge had already struck first.
"Slap!" A crisp, clear slap echoed on Chang Yifan's face.
Immediately after, Chang Yifan was sent flying by the slap, falling heavily to the ground, his entire face instantly swollen like a steamed bun.
Although much of his cultivation had been lost, he was still no match for a trash like Chang Yifan. If it weren't for wanting to avoid further trouble, Chang Yifan would have been dead long ago.
Su Xi paid no attention to Chang Yifan, picked up the transit permit, and imprinted her identity onto it.
With a transit permit, she would have a legal identity and the qualification to travel.
There would be plenty of time to deal with trash like Chang Yifan later. For now, the urgent matter was to complete the formalities.
After Su Xi finished, Ouyang Chu Ge also imprinted his identity.
With everything done, their gazes returned to Chang Yifan. The most important thing for them now was this piece of trash.
"You have only one chance. Speak, or don't speak," Su Xi said, looking at Chang Yifan, her killing intent unmasked.
Chang Yifan, lying on the ground, showed a determined expression in response to Su Xi's question, "I'll tell you this, even if I die here today, I will absolutely not speak."
Upon hearing Chang Yifan's words, Su Xi slapped him again.
From the moment Chang Yifan uttered those words, Su Xi had confirmed that someone was behind them, causing trouble.
She hadn't offended many people, so she didn't need to think hard to know who it was. Therefore, whether Chang Yifan spoke or not was no longer important. After all, she had already determined the answer.
Chang Yifan was hit so hard that he became noticeably fatter, turning into a fat slob.
He knew this was Su Xi's way of humiliating him, intentionally not killing him just to do this.
Although he was furious, he was helpless.
After all, he had no ability to resist Su Xi.
Chang Yifan wanted to utter some harsh words, but after being beaten by Su Xi and Ouyang Chu Ge, he had lost half his life.
He desperately wanted to faint, but Su Xi and Ouyang Chu Ge controlled their power with such precision that each blow caused him excruciating pain, yet he couldn't faint, making him feel as if he was about to fly into the sky from the torment.
The official watching Su Xi and the others behave this way could only look up at the sky helplessly, completely bewildered.
If this matter were to be investigated, his life would surely be lost.
He wished he could hide somewhere and regretted not taking leave before coming here.
Just as Su Xi and Ouyang Chu Ge were beating Chang Yifan, Ma Shan suddenly walked in through the doorway.
"I want to see who the daredevil is who dares to cause trouble on my territory." Ma Shan considered himself the city lord's brother-in-law, so how could he be bullied on his own turf?
As soon as he entered, he saw Chang Yifan, beaten to a pulp, and immediately burst into laughter.
He was uneducated and didn't understand what an inspector represented. Seeing Chang Yifan, who had been beaten like a pig's head, instantly made him feel extremely pleased.
He had to teach these troublemakers a lesson so they would know his power.
He was not to be trifled with.
Su Xi and Ouyang Chu Ge's actions aligned perfectly with his own feelings, so Ma Shan nodded approvingly and said, "You've done well."
Su Xi heard Ma Shan praising them at this moment and immediately knew he was also a clueless idiot.
So she enthusiastically stepped forward and cooperatively said, "Young Master, we couldn't stand his arrogance, so we took action. We originally wanted to reason with him, but who knew he would say he was the biggest here and no one dared to provoke him."
Upon hearing Su Xi's words, Ouyang Chu Ge couldn't help but look away.
He was worried that if he continued to listen, he would burst out laughing.
Ma Shan heard Su Xi's words and his breathing became heavy with anger.
An inspector?
What a load of rubbish.
Now on his territory, wasn't he reduced to a pile of dung?
And his name was Chang Yifan?
It should be changed to Chang Yitongshi (Chang Yi-pile-of-dung)!
"Take him out and teach him how to behave."
"Yes." Su Xi called to Ouyang Chu Ge, and they moved together.
Some things were inconvenient for a delicate girl like her to handle.
At Ma Shan's command, Ouyang Chu Ge stripped Chang Yifan's clothes, sealed his cultivation, and hung him on the city wall.
Passersby laughed as they saw the naked Chang Yifan.
"Nuts, and you dare show them off to whom?"
Chang Yifan, being pointed at and ridiculed, blushed deeply and wished he could find a hole to crawl into. He had never experienced such humiliation in his life.
He vowed that once he got back, he would have it removed, this unclean thing.
Su Xi, he would definitely kill her.
In Chang Yifan's mind, he had already decided that as soon as he escaped this predicament, he would immediately report to the imperial court and request them to issue a notice to hunt down Su Xi and Ouyang Chu Ge.
Then, within the borders of the Great Xuan Empire, they would have nowhere to hide.
The humiliation he suffered today would be repaid tenfold.
Su Xi watched Chang Yifan hanging on the city wall, her eyes full of malice. She had already realized that this person definitely had ill intentions.
She never left any potential crises for herself. Since she had sensed a crisis, she naturally needed to resolve it properly.
So Su Xi walked up to Ma Shan and whispered a few words in his ear.
Ma Shan's expression flickered upon hearing Su Xi, then quickly turned to one of ecstasy. "I thought I was a connoisseur of pleasure, but it seems you are also of the same persuasion."
After praising Su Xi, Ma Shan ordered his attendants, "That fellow is not speaking up there. Pour a hundred jin of aphrodisiac into him."
"Yes."
The subordinates heard Ma Shan's words and felt a chill run down their spines.
A hundred jin, not to mention whether he could even consume it, but if he did, wouldn't he simply explode?
But who told Chang Yifan to provoke Ma Shan? He could only pray for his own survival.
Under the manipulation of his subordinates, Chang Yifan was forcibly fed a hundred jin of aphrodisiac. His face turned red, and then he began to pant heavily.
"You, hurry and find me a hundred girls." Chang Yifan's voice was distorted, showing extreme pain.
Ma Shan heard Chang Yifan's loud cries and chuckled, "No girls, but there are plenty of female dogs."
With that, Ma Shan immediately ordered various items to be brought to Chang Yifan.
Chang Yifan had already lost his senses and, regardless of what was in front of him, lunged forward.
Everyone watching this scene couldn't help but frown.
It was too barbaric.
