Chi Jiao kissed him on the lips, her eyes filled with admiration. “Brother Quan, you’re amazing!”
Although they had only frozen the magnetic field for a minute, all Espers’ superpowers would also be frozen within that minute. It was enough to turn the situation around.
“It’s a pity that this ability can’t be executed immediately. It’s not useful most of the time. But perhaps it might be helpful when it comes to dealing with She Qi.” Quan Jue simply carried her and strode out of the apartment.
The most important thing had been resolved. Now, they had to wait for Huo Chen and 117 to clean up the mess.
“The Xuan Sect is indeed powerful. If other Espers know about this, it will definitely cause a huge commotion,” Chi Jiao said as she leaned into his arms.
“No matter how tempted those people are, they won’t dare to attack the Xuan Sect. However, if you want to learn, I can think of a way,” Quan Jue said dotingly.
Chi Jiao was indeed tempted.
However, the techniques of the Xuan Sect were only passed down to its members. Taking Quan Jue’s earlier technique as an example, it wouldn’t be possible for just anyone to execute it. They must be extremely talented and undergo intense training by the Xuan Sect.
Chi Jiao was not from the Xuan Sect. Learning it would be considered stealing.
Although Quan Jue was now the Xuan Sect’s boss, Chi Jiao didn’t want to cause trouble for him.
Chi Jiao smiled. “I don’t want to learn such a difficult thing. Brother Quan, you must learn all their techniques. After you learn everything, you can protect me.”
Quan Jue nodded affectionately.
Meanwhile, Huo Chen had arrested Shi Kuo and understood his motive. He then immediately drove over to the apartment building.
Quan Jue carried Chi Jiao as the elevator reached the first floor. The elevator door opened just as Huo Chen rushed up to it.
He didn’t expect to see such a scene behind the elevator door.
His expression stiffened as he stared blankly at the two of them. He was speechless for a long time.
Chi Jiao was a little embarrassed. “Brother Quan, let me down?”
“Your leg is injured. Don’t move.” With that, Quan Jue hugged her even tighter.
Chi Jiao was slightly surprised.
When she was fighting Number Three earlier, she accidentally kicked the coffee table.
Although it wasn’t a major injury to her, it still hurt a little.
At that time, Quan Jue was focused on condensing his power. Chi Jiao thought he didn’t notice.
“I didn’t say anything. How did you know?” Chi Jiao asked curiously.
“Because I was looking at you the entire time,” Quan Jue said matter-of-factly.
He looked straight ahead, and his tone was neutral. However, Chi Jiao blushed in embarrassment when she heard that.
The loving scene was too heartbreaking for Huo Chen.
“Are you two alright…?” He moved his stiff lips.
“We’re fine. We’ve already obtained the stone. Officer Huo, have you caught Shi Kuo?” Chi Jiao asked with concern.
Huo Chen tried his best not to look at their loving expressions and nodded silently. “Yes, he’s at the police station now.”
“I want to see him. I still have a few questions for him. Chen Shuo and Fu Lei are injured. I’ll have to trouble Officer Huo to take care of them,” Chi Jiao said.
From the beginning, she knew that Number Three would not really kill Fu Lei, which was why she was willing to provoke it. Those two boys were seriously injured and frightened; it could be considered punishment for their previous wrongdoings.
