Chapter 3, The Arrogant Young Man

Qin Xiaotian flashed a grin, showing no signs at all, and suddenly his forehead collided violently with Old Ma's nose. With a crisp "crack," Old Ma let out a strange howl: "Aow..." His nasal bone was forcefully flattened by Qin Xiaotian's brow, causing him to clutch his nose in pain and jump around wildly on the ground.

He observed the not-so-large detention room for a while, then sighed and said: "Perhaps it is heaven that cannot bear to see this and has come to help me."

The officer asked, "What is your name?"

Chi Ming did not need to exert any energy; the voice on the phone was clear and discernible. He wondered to himself, what kind of place is a prison? ... Qin Xiaotian has entered prison ... Looking at Old Qin's demeanor, it seemed that prison was not a good place. He felt he should find time to take a look. With someone like him, a 'Demon Lord', taking care of him, it would be difficult for Qin Xiaotian to even think about dying.

Qin Xiaotian's move was unexpected, and Chi Ming couldn't help but applaud in appreciation, feeling exhilarated inside

Sister Long could not stand any longer and slowly sat down on the small wooden stool

This is the pain in Qin Ming's heart. He sighed and said, "When I was young, I offended many people. Alas, you are right; she was indeed implicated by me and almost lost her life."

In Qin Ming's eyes, after catching a glimpse of Sister Long's legs shining for a moment, Chi Ming had already stopped. He then cheerfully said, "It hurts a bit, but it will be fine soon."

Is this what love is? Chi Ming pondered, thinking of his elder brother Li Qiang, who was gradually becoming enlightened. The behavior of this couple intrigued him more and more.

Chi Ming did not take action; he was not worried that Qin Xiaotian would be injured. With his divine power protecting him, such beatings were hardly a concern. He was simply very displeased with these two fellows

Qin Ming had no strength left to be angry with him, merely nodding without saying a word

A line of blood flowed down his cheek, and Qin Xiaotian extended his tongue to lick the fresh blood that had trickled past his lips. Surprisingly, he felt quite good; just a moment ago, he thought he was doomed, only to realize that it was merely a cut. His courage began to swell.

Chi Ming said: "Old Qin, help her walk a few steps, she will be fine soon"

Sister Long did not believe it; she hesitated for a moment, stood up, and just as she took a step, she felt something was off. Having become accustomed to her original way of walking, she suddenly found herself unable to walk after the abrupt change

After a long time, he gradually regained consciousness. The first thing he did was to test just how powerful he was. He grasped the handcuff ring on his wrist and forcefully twisted it. With a loud "crack," the handcuff was broken apart. He sat down on the ground, thinking to himself, "Little Tian, I have become a monster! I can even break handcuffs... What the hell happened?"

The fearful expressions of Qin Ming and Sister Long filled Chi Ming with great pride, and in his excitement, he could not help but take on a large share of the responsibility.

Chi Ming plopped down on the single sofa beside him and said nonchalantly, "Sister Long, don't worry, I can tell fortunes. His fate is quite good, with noble people to assist him, hehe." He revealed a hint of a mysterious smile, thinking to himself, "It's not just noble people; that little brat is actually blessed by the Great Demon Lord... Hmm, I must keep this a secret; it wouldn't be fun if it got out."

The couple sat in silence facing each other

Chi Ming clapped his hands and said casually, "Alright, I guarantee that Sister Long will run faster than you, haha"

Upon arriving at the interrogation room, Qin Xiaotian sat down across the iron bars.

A... ...

Qin Xiaotian lay flat on the ground, pretending to have fainted.

Zhang Kuo suddenly struck Qin Xiaotian's waist with a high-voltage electric rod, and a series of arcs flashed by. To everyone's surprise, Qin Xiaotian stood up and coldly said: "Damn you... may your whole family suffer a terrible fate... spit!"

Sister Long's movements noticeably became somewhat stiff; she did not continue to inquire further, placing the meal on the tea table in front of Qin Ming, and said: "Old Qin, let's eat, don't wear yourself out."

The couple looked helplessly at this lively treasure. After a long pause, Qin Ming said: "We have no power, no money, and I have offended many people. I have already sought out everyone I could... What else can I do?"

Chi Ming almost rushed up to slap him, thinking: "Damn it, it is I who am helping you... what does this have to do with the heavens? Hmph, disrespecting me, you little brat, just wait and see how I will deal with you in the future." He smiled faintly and quietly disappeared

Qin Xiaotian could not find any clues; with Chiming's current abilities, even as a high-level expert in the Separation Stage, he would not be able to detect him standing invisibly in the detention room

Qin Ming was also unable to articulate his feelings; in any case, he was in a state of confusion and helplessness. He simply chose to remain silent and observe what methods Chi Ming would employ

He struck the ground with a powerful punch, causing the reinforced concrete to emit a series of cracking sounds, and this punch actually caused the surface to crack open with countless fine fissures. However, this punch also revealed that his flesh was not as hard as bone; the skin on his finger joints was torn, appearing bloodied and mangled.

Chi Ming chuckled and said, "Hehe, isn't it fun"

Old Ma trembled in pain, and then he witnessed a scene that he would remember for the rest of his life

Since childhood, he has yearned for superhuman strength and has consistently trained himself without relent. His favorite discipline is free fighting, yet he never dared to hope that he could truly possess such immense power, nor did he expect to endure such brutal beatings without injury. All of this was completely beyond his expectations

Qin Xiaotian lazily leaned against the back of the chair, looking at the handcuffs just fastened on his wrist, pondering in his heart: "Would it be easy to break these handcuffs?"

Qin Ming could not understand why Chi Ming wanted to help him, and he asked in confusion: "You... why do you want to help me?" He gradually calmed down; in a desperate situation, he was willing to do anything for his son, even if it meant accepting that Chi Ming was a devil.

A shot entered from above Zhang Kuo's thigh

Chiming's sensitivity is extremely strong; he noticed that Old Qin was secretly crying. For him, crying is a very strange emotion, as he has never cried before. He quietly observed, finding such emotional changes very intriguing.

Qin Ming was so shocked that his hands and feet went numb. He suddenly stood up, pointing at Chi Ming, his eyes wide open like bells, stammering, "You... you are... a person..." He intended to ask, "Who are you?" but the words got stuck in his throat, and all he could manage to say was, "You are a person." He simply could not articulate it clearly.

Chi Ming walked out of the room, smiling as he said, "Your little Tian is fine, very well indeed"

Soon, only Qin Xiaotian remained in the detention room. He slowly turned over and stood up, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Although he did not understand why Zhang Kuo had gone mad and opened fire, there must be a secret that he was unaware of.

Qin Ming incredulously said, "How is this possible?" Suddenly realizing that Chi Ming was not an ordinary person

Although Qin Ming did not believe it, he still held a glimmer of hope and said, "Let's give it a try... let's go take a look..."

Only Qin Xiaotian was seen lying on the ground with his hands cuffed behind his back, already unconscious, a gash on his forehead, and his clothes in tatters. Two officers sat facing each other; one officer covered his nose with his left hand and his thigh with his right hand, while the other officer held a gun in one hand and covered his leg with the other. Both were wailing in agony, and the situation in the room was as bizarre as it could be.

Qin Ming put down the phone and stared blankly at the dishes on the coffee table, feeling completely devoid of appetite

Qin Ming quietly rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand. He did not dare to look up and said in a low voice: "There is no news for the time being. You... why haven't you rested yet... cough cough..."

The phone rang, and Qin Ming put down his bowl, picking up the phone: "Hello, it's me." His face grew increasingly pale.

Chi Ming'an thought: "Even if the little fellow is a fool, with the Tianlingzi, he should become quite intelligent. Moreover, the little fellow is not exactly an idiot... Fortunately, I managed to obtain quite a few treasures from my elder brother; otherwise, it would have been quite a hassle."

Qin Xiaotian's forehead was struck open, his bones had been reshaped, but his flesh was not so resilient

Chi Ming said with a smile: "Oh... I got into trouble, my son is in the limelight, haha, it's nothing, by the way, Long Sao's leg was also affected, right"

Old Ma cursed loudly: "Are you blind? Can't you see that I'm injured... hissing... Hurry, call an ambulance... Zhang Kuo, I f*** your mother... shoot me with a gun!"

The officer conducting the interrogation is an acquaintance, while the officer sitting beside taking notes is a recent graduate from the police academy

Qin Xiaotian nonchalantly wiped away the bloodstains. He was about to shout out loud to vent his joy and unease when the iron door of the detention room opened, and two officers stood outside. One of them said, "Qin Xiaotian, come out"

Zhang Kuo was controlled by an invisible force, and after he shot Old Ma right in front of him, that force suddenly vanished, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground

Old Ma exerted all his strength and struck Qin Xiaotian's forehead with a heavy blow. With a loud "crack," the sturdy rubber police baton broke into two pieces

Qin Ming hurriedly stepped forward, supporting Sister Long as she walked a few steps in the room before releasing his hand. Sister Long seemed unable to believe it herself; she struggled to adjust her steps, slowly, with tears streaming down her face, as a miracle truly unfolded in this world

Qin Xiaotian felt irritated; this program was truly annoying. However, considering the acquaintance's face, he still complied.

Qin Ming nodded slightly, yet he still did not dare to look at Sister Long, picking up his bowl and hastily shoveling a few mouthfuls of rice.

Qin Xiaotian grinned and said, "You hit me so many times, and just one hit back... and you turned into this useless fool, haha!" He laughed heartily without restraint

Chi Ming said with a playful smile: "Don't say no... it's too late! Your leg has already healed, hehe, I, Old Chi, keep my word. If you don't believe me, take a few steps."

Chi Ming's thumb was still pointing at his own nose, and he waved his thumb, saying: "With me around, your son will definitely be fine, so don't worry."

Immediately afterward, he discovered something even more astonishing: the wounds on his body had completely healed, with only some bloodstains remaining on his skin. He was so frightened that he did not know what to do, and after a while, he finally relaxed, thinking that his current state was certainly better than before

Chi Ming said with a smile, "Sister Long, in order to prove that I can save your son, hehe, let me show you the methods of old Chi." As he spoke, his palm emitted a dazzling golden light

He is relatively satisfied with the transformation of Qin Xiaotian's body, but he feels that this little fellow cannot be considered smart; it seems that he is still lacking a bit in terms of cultivation.

Old Ma and Zhang Kuo faced each other and howled in unison: "Aow..."

Sister Long hurriedly said: "Don't ... ... "

Qin Ming is indeed different from ordinary people. As an experienced detective, he becomes more alert in times of danger. He suddenly realizes that if Chi Ming had malicious intent, he would not have offered money or helped his elderly partner. He strives to calm his racing heart and, with a slightly trembling voice, asks: "What do you want?"

Ah... eh..." Sister Long screamed, feeling as if one of her legs was being roasted over a fire, the pain penetrating to the bone. However, just as she cried out, the pain in her leg subsided. She touched her shinbone, uncertainly saying, "What happened to my leg...?" She looked up and saw Chi Ming with a mischievous smile on his face, which made her instinctively move closer to the sofa, grabbing Qin Ming's arm and saying, "He... he..."

Chi Ming lifted Long Sao's crippled leg, and with a series of cracking sounds, her leg bones shattered into powder, only to reassemble in less than a second

An officer said: "Captain Ma, you all..."

Qin Ming rubbed his eyes vigorously; he was not startled by the large stack of banknotes, but rather astonished by the sudden appearance of the money. Having worked as a criminal police officer for many years, his insight was exceptional, and this stack of banknotes had indeed materialized out of thin air

Zhang Kuo drew his pistol and aimed it at him, saying: "Kid, don't come any closer, or I'll kill you!" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized that he could not control his hands, and he couldn't help but scream in terror

After searching in the bracelet for a while, Chiming smiled proudly as he found several elixirs, which he had obtained from his elder brother Li Qiang. Among them was the Tianlingzi, specifically used to enhance spiritual intelligence, a peerless elixir of the Buddhist sect, along with some Seven-Stage Pills.

"Old Ma, something's not right, this kid must be possessed, right?" Zhang Kuo's voice trembled slightly, his heart growing increasingly anxious; it is rare to encounter someone who is so fearless of a fight.

Qin Ming was fundamentally unable to stop it, nor did he have the capacity to do so. He was still somewhat skeptical of Chiming's methods, yet what he witnessed with his own eyes made it difficult for him to discern the truth. He could only watch helplessly.

This question is quite foolish; it is not that Chi Ming is stupid, but rather that this person lacks the experience of living in the world and has no understanding of the emotions associated with the secular realm

He said: "How can you help me? I... my adversaries have always wanted to eliminate me... my son is the target of their resentment, sigh, the little guy is young... he can't bear it."

Chi Ming tilted his head and thought for a moment, then said: "I have money... what is power?"

Qin Ming and Long Sao smiled bitterly; this person was dressed in a full set of luxury brands, exuding the demeanor of a wealthy young master, and was handsome and charming. However, his speech seemed to be devoid of thought, filled with nonsensical chatter and absurdities.

Qin Xiaotian was also taken aback, unable to comprehend what this fellow was doing. Immediately after, there was another gunshot, and before Old Ma could understand what was happening, he "thudded" down to the ground.

Long Sao felt quite distressed in her heart. She looked at Chi Ming with eyes that resembled those of a pitying fool, and said: "Alas, I hope... I hope Xiao Tian is alright"

Sister Long had just awakened and had not yet clearly heard what Chiming was saying when she caught sight of his glowing palm; her eyes rolled back and she fainted again.

Sister Long hurriedly came out of the kitchen holding a bowl of rice and a plate of vegetables, anxiously asking: "Old Qin... how is it?"

This is a stack of old banknotes, with each note being a high denomination of one thousand yuan, totaling over two hundred thousand. There are also banknotes in the red bracelet. Seeing that Qin Ming was silent, he thought it was insufficient, and in a swift motion, another several hundred thousand appeared in his hand

Chi Ming quietly returned to the Qin family's home and saw Sister Long sitting in the living room. No matter what, she could not fall asleep and had no choice but to sit and wait for Qin Ming to return

Chi Ming could not help but laugh; he greatly appreciated the arrogance of this little fellow. He felt that Qin Xiaotian had a hint of wickedness, but the level of wickedness was still far from his expectations. He hoped this little guy could be a bit more arrogant, as that would be more interesting

Only Zhang Kuo was heard shouting at the top of his lungs: "No!"

Qin Xiaotian struggled vigorously for a moment, and then he heard a crisp sound as the all-steel handcuffs broke into two pieces. He stared in astonishment at the metal ring on his wrist, unable to believe that the connecting part of the handcuffs had actually been snapped. His mind became a chaotic mess.

Sister Long's mind was in a state of confusion; she was anxious and paid no attention to what Chiming was saying. She stood up and said, "I will go heat up the food. Alas, Old Qin hasn't eaten yet"

When Qin Xiaotian was pushed into the police car, he realized something was wrong, as the police car was a vehicle specifically used for prisons, which he discerned from the license plate. However, he was unable to resist. Remembering the concerned expressions of his parents, he could only helplessly get into the car

Qin Ming remained silent, thinking: "Indeed, he is a wealthy young master... How could he not know what power is? What kind of person is this?"

It was only then that Qin Xiaotian realized it was not an interrogation, but a formal arrest and detention. He stood up nonchalantly, took the pen, and wrote down his name.

The sound of footsteps erupted chaotically, and the gunfire startled the officers outside. As the iron door of the detention room swung open, four officers rushed in, dumbfounded.

Sister Long Youyou awoke, and she looked at Chiming with eyes that were no different from those one would use to gaze upon a monster; it was a gaze filled with extreme fear

Bang

The officer said: "Qin Xiaotian, you are suspected of intentional injury and are formally detained. Please sign here."

Chi Mingdao: "Is there no way for you to save him?"

The four police officers who entered were truly at a loss, and the leading officer said: "Quick, call an ambulance!" In the chaos, no one had the time to check whether Qin Xiaotian was alive or dead

This is even more of a platitude. The Qin couple, in their desperation to save their son, are at a loss as to what to do. If there were a way, would they still be sitting at home waiting

Qin Ming comforted, "Don't be afraid, he said he can cure your leg..."

Qin Ming entered from outside, his complexion extremely poor, as if he had aged ten years in an instant. He ignored Chi Ming, walked to the sofa, and sat down dejectedly, holding his head in his hands, looking utterly despondent

Qin Ming was on the verge of vomiting blood; this fellow was merely doing it for fun. However, due to his son's situation, he was already exhausted both physically and mentally. When Chi Ming suddenly appeared and offered to help him, Qin Ming felt like a drowning person, and he had to grasp this lifeline no matter what.

Zhang Kuo was seen screaming, one hand desperately blocking the other hand that was holding a gun, as the handgun gradually pointed downwards, ultimately aiming at his own thigh

Qin Ming and Sister Long were instantly dumbfounded, as they clearly saw a large stack of banknotes appear out of thin air in Chi Ming's hand

Chi Ming was somewhat moved by the affection this couple had for their son and couldn't help but ask: "Is Xiao Tian very important to you?"

Chi Ming rolled his eyes, his handsome face full of smiles. He felt quite pleased, raising his thumb and pointing at his own nose, saying: "I am the one and only great demon... um, no, that's not right, it's the three demons... ah, forget it, let's not mention that..." Just thinking about it made him sad. Ever since he began cultivating the divine with Li Qiang, he might never have the chance to become the great demon lord in this lifetime, and he truly felt a bit unwilling in his heart.

This statement drove both individuals to the brink of madness, as Old Ma shouted: "I... I will kill this brat, I want to kill you!"

Old Ma was so frightened that his heart nearly burst; this was too bizarre

Chi Ming is a proud and arrogant individual. After pondering for a long time, he came up with an idea: "If the aptitude is poor, then I will transform it. What in this world can possibly challenge me, old Chi?"

Qin Ming and his wife were completely stunned; even an experienced officer like Qin Ming was taken aback, let alone Sister Long. She rolled her eyes and fainted, her body tilting outward as she fell. Chi Ming gently waved his hand, and Sister Long floated into the air and landed on the sofa

Chi Ming leaned against the sofa, his fingers gently tapping on his thigh, contemplating Qin Xiaotian's qualifications

Chi Ming rested his chin on his hand with a mischievous smile, finding it quite amusing. He muttered to himself, "These two little brats are really weak. Fortunately, I didn't lay a hand on them; if I accidentally took them out, it wouldn't be fun anymore... Oh, this kid is actually quite clever."

Chi Ming interestingly discovered that Qin Ming was lying. After some thought, he understood that Qin Ming probably did not want to worry Long Sao, which is why he deliberately downplayed the situation

Chi Ming saw that Qin Ming was silent, and casually took out a large stack of money from his bracelet, saying: "You can take this to use, and if it's not enough, I will give you more"

Zhang Kuo was in so much pain that his eyes were filled with tears, and he was on the verge of losing his mind, howling: "Ma Dapao! I curse your mother... didn't you see that I was also shot... ah! What the hell!" He could not comprehend what force had caused him to lose control; his heart was filled with both fear and astonishment, but more than that, it was a sense of bewilderment that was even stranger than seeing a ghost, utterly inexplicable.

Zhang Kuo shouted, "No!" The gun was raised again, this time aimed at Old Ma's thigh
