Chapter 510 - Rose
“Mr. Mie, congratulations on completing the mission of eliminating the MLM Organization. Our two directors are already processing the reward for you!”
As Xiao Luo walked out of Huayao Group, he saw a woman alight from a black car. As she stepped toward him, two buff-looking men were right behind her, and they looked like the type no one should be messing around with.
That woman had an elegant looking bob hairstyle. Other than the fact that the distance between her eyes was slightly wider than an ordinary person, her facial features were beautiful. But it didn’t take anything away from her beauty; in fact, it gave her a much more unique charm.
Xiao Luo looked at her and was slightly suspicious. “Who are you?” he asked. His voice was neither too friendly nor too stern.
“My codename is Rose. I am the new liaison officer assigned to you by headquarters,” the woman said, nodding stiffly.
“New liaison?”
Xiao Luo looked at her doubtfully and asked, “Then, what about Ms. Ji?”
“I think you’re referring to Nightbird, Mr. Mie. She has requested to be transferred out of headquarters and is looking to relocate to another branch instead. By now, she is most probably at the airport waiting to get on board her flight,” Rose said.
What? Siying requested for a transfer?!
Xiao Luo was shocked. He had been preparing to have a good talk with Ji Siying, and the last thing he had expected was for this woman to consider leaving. Was she doing this on purpose so that she would not see him again?
Suddenly, Xiao Luo felt really anxious. He felt like someone who had just lost someone really important to him.
“Which airport is she at?”
“New district airport,” Rose answered.
Xiao Luo started to walk toward his car quickly without saying another word. He had to make Ji Siying stay no matter what it took—there was no reason for her to do this. He had a hunch about why she decided to go, and he immediately decided that, even if he had to use force, he planned to keep her by his side at all costs.
Rose stared at Xiao Luo coyly as he walked away. “Mr. Mie, are you going to go look for her?” she called after him.
“It’s nothing that concerns you. Just go back and report on your task,” Xiao Luo retorted. He could not be bothered to answer her question.
“Huh? I can’t just do that!”
The look on Rose’s face turned cold. Instantly, the two men who were with her blocked Xiao Luo’s path, and they resembled two massive walls in front of him.
Xiao Luo turned his head and glared hard at Rose. “What is the meaning of this?” he said.
“According to the information I have, Mr. Mie, you are an S-level agent. You’re at the top of the pyramid in NSA, and there are only three S level warriors: you, King Kong, and Drug Lady. The three of you are like priceless treasures to NSA, but don’t forget this as well—you belong to the NSA, and you are a member of the NSA. This means that you have to adhere to the arrangements and orders from the NSA. This is the basic rule and you will have to follow them,” Rose said. The smile on her face was gone, and her tone was no longer as friendly as it had been earlier on.
“I’m guessing you’re new here,” Xiao Luo said.
Then he made himself clear and warned her, “There are no agents from the NSA headquarters that have the guts to speak to me in this manner.”
Rose glared at him with her hands on her hips. “It is true that I was transferred here from the Zhongnanhai branch not too long ago. But forget you, even Gu Zhanguo has got to show me some face when talking to me as well,” she riposted.
Xiao Luo blinked his eyes once and said, “Did you purposely come here just to challenge me?”
“I won’t say ‘challenge,’ but you’re indeed interesting—in a crazy way. To kill a commander from the military as you did, I’m just really curious to know what kind of person you are,” Rose said, staring at Xiao Luo with venom in her eyes.
“You’re one of the members of the Bai family from the Capital, aren’t you?” Xiao Luo could kind of tell the woman’s identity was right away.
Rose raised her head proudly. “You have rather good eyes, I’m indeed from the Bai family. But don’t worry, Zhuo Yuze knew what the laws were and chose to break them,” she said, “Killing him is the punishment that he deserves. I won’t take revenge for him, but if you don’t follow the orders given by the NSA, then I will have the right to make life really hard for you, do you understand?”
She walked toward the two men and then smiled as she stood behind them. “Let me introduce the two of them to you—they are from the Central Guards Regiment, and they are in charge of the personal safety of the important leaders of our country,” she said, “In terms of strength, I’d say they are pretty much at the level of you S-level agents, so let me warn you to be obedient and listen. Don’t look for trouble. No matter how strong you are, you’re still at the level of a dog, and like a dog, you should just listen to your orders. Otherwise, be prepared to get beaten up!”
Xiao Luo laughed mockingly and said, “Aren’t you afraid that I might just kill you here?”
Rose’s body trembled a little. When she stared into Xiao Luo’s eyes, she could feel an overwhelming sense of danger. “Are you threatening me right now? Alright, we’ll do it your way then,” she hissed, raising her right hand to the two men, “Give this guy a good beating!”
The two buff men were ready to act, and as soon as they received the order, they moved in like two evil beasts, releasing all the strength they’d been suppressing.
BAM!
One of them leaped up and executed a kick aimed right at Xiao Luo’s chest.
His attack was as ferocious as a tiger and as fast as the wind!
Xiao Luo reacted instinctively with a well-controlled counter kick, and the sole of his feet met viciously with the incoming kick.
The impact threw the man a few meters back. He knelt down on one knee and had a murderous look on his face.
By this time, the other man’s attack was about to land. It was not as fancy and appeared to be a straight forward punch, but it came at Xiao Luo like an iron fist filled with immense power. It was delivered with such force that it seemed to roar like a gale wind.
Xiao Luo had the time to smile, and he instantly matched it with a strike of his fist.
POW!
The two fists met with immense power and resulted in a storm that sent waves of energy blasting outward. Dust swirled around them, and the ground beneath their feet cracked. The force threw Rose off her balance, and she was thrown back. But the other man reacted quickly and grabbed her before she fell to the ground.
POW! BAM! BAM!
The buff man who challenged Xiao Luo with his fist staggered at least ten steps backward before he could steady himself. Xiao Luo merely stomped his right foot to arrest his slide caused by the immense force and immediately stopped.
It was a display of his skill and power.
The two men from the Central Guards Regiment glared at Xiao Luo. Underneath their scowls, they had a slightly worried look on their faces.
“Don’t you dare to block my path, or die!” Xiao Luo roared. He then leaped forward with immense power surging through his body.
Not only was Rose shaking in fear, but even the two buff men couldn’t help feeling a chill run down their spines. They were stunned and couldn’t tell if what they saw was an illusion. They could only sense that Xiao Luo was like a wild beast that had just woken up from a deep slumber.
“For not following your orders, I have the right to strike first. Since your codename is ‘Mie1,’ then I shall extinguish you for good!” Rose yelled as she regained her senses. She had nothing to fear as she had the two men from the Central Guards Regiment as her bodyguards.
“Haha, haha…”
Xiao Luo laughed hysterically. He looked insane, and in the next second, energy erupted from his body in a tremendous wave. Leaping forward four to five steps, Xiao Luo stomped both of his feet into the ground, sending him flying in a high arch in the direction of Rose. He sent his right fist cutting through the air directly at the ignorant woman beneath him.
Xiao Luo struck at the speed of light, from three meters high.
At the point when he unleashed his power, it was terrifying.
Rose cowered in fear, and her expression changed immediately as she unconsciously took a step back. Xiao Luo’s madness and strength far exceeded her expectations.
But the two men were not to be outdone. They put their fears aside and dashed toward Rose as if they had teleported. They clenched their right fists and launched it upward.
BOOM!
The tremendous force of the collision blasted through the air as the fists of the three fighters collided. The immense power surged through the two men and the ground where they stood collapsed instantly, creating two big cavities roughly four meters in diameters. They looked like two big iron pots embedded into a deep crack in the ground.
Overwhelming power was expended in that instant of intense fighting action.
The two buff men were thrown tumbling back, sailing in the air as if they had been smashed by a train.
Xiao Luo was thrown back as well, but none of the three fell to the ground. They twisted their bodies in the air and landed with their feet. They steadied themselves from the force of the landing with a spring-like action.
