Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Successful Rescue, Identity Revealed

"Idiot!"

"How dare he release energy fluctuations on a little girl so recklessly!"

"Does he think this flimsy shield can protect the little girl? Once detected by the Overlord Dragon Beast, he will be the culprit who killed her!"

The onlooking Transcendents couldn't help but curse loudly after seeing Su Qi make a move.

The little girl most needs to avoid being detected by the Overlord Dragon Beast or to get out of its attack range.

But this brash guy, with a single Energy Shield, might send the girl into a pit of destruction.

Soon.

Their conjectures were proved true.

The Overlord Dragon Beast, after once again flinging away a bodyguard, noticed the energy fluctuation beneath him.

Immediately, it lowered its enormous head.

The next moment.

The wooden table was directly flung away, shattered into dust.

The little girl was completely exposed under the Fierce Beast's gaze!

The beautiful woman, seeing this scene, froze as if her soul was suddenly extracted.

Everyone closed their eyes unwillingly, already imagining the tragic outcome to come.

But there was nothing they could do.

That rash youth was about to bear the Xu Family's wrath.

The little girl also realized something at this moment, feeling the Overlord Dragon Beast's heavy breath and the stench of its bloody mouth.

A chill shot up from her tailbone, exploding behind her forehead.

Two streams of tears fell silently.

Her little head mechanically turned backward, inch by inch.

Su Qi's gaze sharpened, knowing this was the Death Driving Force formed when someone is overwhelmingly consumed by fear.

Once the girl faces her fear head-on, she would collapse instantly.

Something akin to the inexplicable urge of wanting to jump off when standing on a tall building.

"Don't turn back!"

"Look at me."

"Stand up."

Su Qi's gentle voice, as if imbued with some kind of magic, manipulated the little girl's actions.

The little girl was already in a daze, and at this moment, Su Qi's voice became the only one in her mind, easily guiding her behavior.

"Yes, that's right, walk forward..."

Su Qi didn't even glance at the Overlord Dragon Beast, focusing entirely on the little girl.

One step...

Two steps...

The Overlord Dragon Beast tilted its head, observing the strange actions of the small life beneath it.

Soon.

The contracting force from the rift made it impatient.

It struggled, roaring, and unleashed a powerful sonic boom, its maw aiming directly at the little girl.

Bang!

Its prized sharp teeth failed to pierce the protective shield around the little girl; instead, the back force from the massive bite caused several teeth to break.

"What!?"

"How is that possible!?"

"This protective shield easily withstood a Commander Level Fierce Beast's attack!"

"This ability is simply too outrageous!"

Witnessing it all, the Transcendents felt their scalps tingle and couldn't help but exclaim loudly.

Support Element Transcendents are already rare.

And those having the ability to easily withstand an Overlord Dragon Beast attack would absolutely not be obscure!

However, why does this young man look so familiar?

Besides.

A team from the Security Bureau had also rushed over upon hearing the alarm.

Seeing the scene, they were instantly stunned.

A six- or seven-year-old girl, relying on a protective shield, was repelling a Commander Level Fierce Beast's attack.

It's simply unbelievable!

Suddenly, a captain-level figure's face from the Security Bureau changed dramatically: "Not good, the Overlord Dragon Beast is thoroughly enraged!"

The Overlord Dragon Beast roared, its body patterns suddenly emitting a sharp, chilling blue light, exuding a terrifying aura.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

...

In an instant, a storm of attacks erupted.

Endless claw shadows seemed to fill the sky, brimming with malevolence, leaving souls trembling in fear.

Countless attacks fell upon the Holy Light Guardian Shield, shaking the earth.

"With this level of attack, even an Overlord Level Transcendent might not dare to withstand it head-on."

Just when everyone thought the little girl was doomed.

The dust settled.

A corner of the pure white protective shield slowly emerged.

This made everyone look as if they had seen a ghost, wide-eyed and slack-jawed, unable to swallow their saliva.

The little girl, who was already scared stiff, was unharmed, seemingly oblivious to the Fierce Beast's attack.

Instead, she followed the gentle voice in her mind, slowly walking forward.

Su Qi smiled confidently; these days, he had been not only advancing his Realm but also frantically enhancing his Ability Level.

Especially the Holy Light Guardian ability, which he had advanced to LV20!

With attacks at the same level, Su Qi was confident it couldn't be easily breached.

He estimated the Overlord Dragon Beast's attack distance.

He stepped closer to the girl.

Carefully enveloping himself with a Holy Light Guardian Shield.

Not until the girl was out of the Fierce Beast's attack range did Su Qi extend his hand: "Come, give me your hand."

The little girl dazedly placed her small hand in Su Qi's palm.

One large, one small, they calmly slipped away under the Fierce Beast's nose.

Clap!

The Security Bureau squad leader slapped his subordinate: "What are you waiting for, go kill that Overlord Dragon Beast!"

At the command.

The Security Bureau members, snapping back to reality, instantly sprang into action.

Shooting towards the Overlord Dragon Beast.

In a brief moment.

The energies behind Su Qi intertwined, with explosions, roars, and the thudding of flesh, erupting violently.

But he did not turn back to look.

Though the Overlord Dragon Beast's emergence through the Dimensional Rift caught the Security Bureau off guard.

Once they reacted, a mere Commander Level Fierce Beast posed little threat to the Inner City.

Otherwise, the Ninth District would have long been overrun countless times.

Until the little girl was returned to the beautiful woman, the girl's taut spirit relaxed completely, fainting.

The beautiful woman then realized her daughter was safe.

Immediately crying uncontrollably, she clutched her daughter and burst into tears.

After an intense skirmish, the Security Bureau's squad quickly dispatched the Fierce Beast.

With the Overlord Dragon Beast lifeless, unable to keep the Dimensional Rift open, its body was severed at the waist, leaving just the upper half.

"Hello, my name is Wu Feng. Thank you for lending a hand and saving this little girl. May I know your name..." The Security Bureau squad leader approached, spoke sincerely.

Su Qi patted his shoulder three times with his right hand, calmly saying: "For humanity."

Seeing this, Wu Feng's expression grew solemn; he stopped, feet together, repeating the gesture: "For humanity."

The two exchanged a smile.

There was no need for additional pleasantries.

"Are you... Su Qi?"

A voice full of surprise arose, the beautiful woman having calmed down, holding her unconscious daughter, examined Su Qi closely.

"Su... Su Qi? It's really you!"

"I thought you looked so familiar?"

Prompted by the woman, Wu Feng slapped his thigh, instantly recognizing Su Qi: "A few days ago, you awakened and were grinning about that Swan Wings thing... My sister watched the whole city's live broadcast, and it was heartbreaking..."

As he spoke, the squad leader's face turned peculiar.

His mouth opened wide, unable to close again.

Isn't this just... only days ago... just awakened!?."
