Chapter 284 - Do you really think I'm blind? (2)
Huo Ren looked over Lu Xingchi.
"I know that women need to find a backer if they want to survive in this world."
Huo Ren mulled it over.
"You started off by following the scarred man that transported people across the river. He died, so you followed me for two days. Then, you didn't follow me. I don't know what happened next. You bumped into Jia Han. You were worried that Jia Han would get jealous and didn't dare to recognize me, and then what? You found this man and relied on him?"
Huo Ren glanced at Lu Xingchi.
"Is this man very powerful? Stronger than me?"
Bei Nuan became a bit angry with all the nonsense he said. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Lu Xingchi speak.
Lu Xingchi snorted coldly. "Your mind is sh*tty, so everything you see looks like sh*t to you."
Huo Ren wasn't angry and smiled a little. "You were fooled by her little angelic face, weren't you? I definitely know better than you what kind of person she is. She's cold-blooded, heartless, and mercenary. She's exactly like me."
Lu Xingchi replied lightly, "You're wrong. She's not like that. I've never seen anyone more like an angel than her."
Bei Nuan thought; he praised me for being like an angel. I feel so happy.
In fact, Bei Nuan wasn't sure if she wasn't the kind of person that Huo Ren said she was. Was she cold-blooded, heartless, and mercenary?
But, Lu Xingchi sounded so sure that she wasn't.
He said she was an angel, and his tone was absolutely certain.
The key was that he wasn't an idiot, and he was never fooled by her face. He was so smart and read people so accurately.
Bei Nuan inexplicably wanted to cry and was also a bit amused.
Huo Ren was utterly black, and Lu Xingchi dazzlingly white. Yet, they were adamant that she was on their side of the morality scale.
The door opened again, and two soldiers patrolling outside rushed in. They were stunned to see Huo Ren inside. "Mr. Huo?"
Huo Ren had an impatient look on his face, "I've only had time to say a few words. You guys keep rushing in. So annoying."
He raised his hand and shot the two soldiers.
The two soldiers inexplicably went to the grim reaper.

Huo Ren raised his gun again and aimed it at Captain Zheng.
"I hate it when there's an idle person listening when I'm talking."
His style remained the same, and he pulled the trigger.
Captain Zheng reacted extremely quickly and raised his guns as well.
Several shots rang out.
No matter who fired the shots, the shots were under Lu Xingchi's control and went straight towards Huo Ren.
However, they had no effect. The bullets passed through Huo Ren and left small holes on the wall behind him.
Huo Ren looked at Captain Zheng in surprise, and then he looked back at the three bullet holes in the wall behind him.
He swept his gaze across the room.
Captain Zheng had a bit of a puzzled look on his face. He obviously didn't understand what was going on either.
Zheng Mo was shouting and acting as if she was going to attack. She looked like a mere zombie.
Of course, Bei Nuan doesn't have the ability to control bullets. If she did, she wouldn't have been scared like that last time at the river.
Huo Ren's gaze fell on Lu Xingchi.
He suddenly said, ''No wonder my gun somehow jammed last time in the tribe. So it was you? So interesting. So you can control other people's guns and bullets?"
He was able to logically think through what happened very quickly.
Lu Xingchi didn't answer and raised his hand.
The people in the room witnessed a terrifying scene.
The room was being torn apart.
Everything metallic was peeling, tearing, and leaving their original positions.
Aside from the weapons on Captain Zheng's body, everything in the private room, from the large metal cage where Zheng Mo had been locked, to the small key thrown on the floor, and from the metal window frames, to the pipes in the bathroom, flew into the air as if they had been swept up by a tornado.
Every single thing melted and instantly transformed into sharp, lethal weapons and was hurled towards Huo Ren.
Huo Ren was filled with amazement, but he didn't dodge. He was in that shadow state again.
Even though it looked like he was still standing there, everything that flew at him passed through his body. The metal weapons were like hailstorm, crackling and snapping as they hit the wall and the floor.
This was within Lu Xingchi's expectations. He stared over there.
The embedded sharp objects flew back up and launched a new round of attacks on Huo Ren.
Bei Nuan knew that he was betting that Huo Ren couldn't keep maintaining his shadow state or that there were gaps and cooldowns in the activation of his ability.
Not wanting to be idle, Bei Nuan stared at Huo Ren's eyes as she chanted the incantation. Even though she knew that Huo Ren might be immune to the ability, she still wanted to give it a try.
She ordered, "Stop using your ability. Die."
There was no effect.
