The item I identified is very strange.

Chapter 27 Have you ever heard of the source of blood and qi?

In the early morning, many shops on the old street were not yet open.

Xia Fan frowned as he looked at the damaged lingerie store.

Who did it?

This lingerie shop is his livelihood; if he had no grudges, why would he do this?

The key point is that this old street mainly sells counterfeit goods, so his underwear shop doesn't have many competitors.

But some people still cause such destruction.

"Brother Xia, have you offended someone?"

The voice came from behind Xia Fan.

He turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a denim jacket standing behind him.

This is the guy selling gene-modifying drugs across from him.

The guy often hawked his products, exaggerating the benefits of gene serums and damaged armor, and made a lot of money from it.

"have no idea."

Xia Fan shook his head.

He genuinely didn't know, but if it was someone he had offended, he had some guesses: Ning Chuan from the Ning family.

This young master liked Chen Xiaoxue, but the girl ended up being very intimate with this old man, and it was even suspected that she had been sexually assaulted.

Considering this, Ning Chuan is a very suspicious person.

"Report it to the Wu'an Bureau, they'll handle it." The older man lit a cigarette, turned and left without saying anything more.

Xia Fan did not answer. If it really was Ning Chuan, then even if he reported it to the Wu'an Bureau, it probably wouldn't be of much use.

In the world of martial arts, strength and background are important, and the Ning family holds a very high position in Jiangbei City.

The Ning family's presence is frequently seen on Jiangbei Finance Channel.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Fan quickly dialed the number.

"Come and clean up this mess."

……

Xia Fan reopened the roller shutter door. There was no damage inside; only the outside of the door had been damaged.

This is more like a warning.

Soon, Chen Xiaoxue arrived, still dressed in her rebellious teenage style.

The super short leather jacket revealed her fair and tender waist and belly, and her skin looked smooth and delicate.

Her straight, fair legs were the epitome of manga-style legs, and her leather mini-skirt featured a conspicuous metal zipper.

Especially her pretty face, with light makeup and a cool demeanor, was completely different from the obedient girl she had pretended to be before.

"Old Deng, what's going on?"

She adjusted her baseball cap, put her hands in her pockets, and walked into the lingerie store.

"What did you call me?"

Xia Fan stared wide-eyed.

He keeps talking about Lao Deng; his little mouth is clearly lacking in education.

"Dad, Dad..."

Chen Xiaoxue slightly shifted her gaze. Although it wasn't the first time she had called him "Dad," the sense of shame still lingered every time she did so.

Xia Fan: "..."

This girl is really alluring.

Every time I hear that "Dad," it warms my heart.

If he were younger, he would have hung this girl up high and taught her a few cooking tricks he learned from Japanese anime.

Xia Fan was about to speak when, due to his habitual head-down movement, he noticed that Chen Xiaoxue's jade-like feet, clad in black platform leather shoes, were not wearing white socks.

The pale insteps were exposed to the air.

[Identification: Source of Blood and Qi. The origin of blood and qi, coexisting with heaven and earth; no one knows the effects of absorbing the source of blood and qi.]

Xia Fan couldn't help but glance at her a few more times, not because of her jade-like feet.

But the subtitles are just too tempting.

Although I don't know the specific effects, just hearing the description of this source of blood energy gives me a feeling of invincibility. If I were to absorb it...

It's cool to think about it.

As he stared at her, Chen Xiaoxue took two steps back, her eyes fierce: "What are you looking at, Lao Deng?"

"Ahem, it's nothing, I just noticed you weren't wearing socks, and I thought it was weird."

Xia Fan withdrew his gaze, put his hands behind his back, and looked like a learned old man, his expression becoming serious.

Chen Xiaoxue muttered, "It's all because I'm keeping an eye on that perverted old man who steals people's socks..."

As she spoke, she stole a couple of glances at Xia Fan. As a young girl, it was inevitable that she would feel ashamed to have her white socks, which she had worn for two days, taken away.

Although she was confident and there was nothing particularly unusual about it, she had still worn it for two days.

Moreover, Old Deng looked like he had obvious dark circles under his eyes, so of course, this rebellious girl knew exactly what he had done with her socks.

Moreover, the way Old Deng looked at her feet just now clearly showed that he wanted to eat them.

"What are you babbling about?" Xia Fan frowned.

Chen Xiaoxue was surprised. This old man really didn't seem like someone his age. Both his way of speaking and his style made him seem very young.

She raised her head: "What exactly do you want me to do? I came out without my mom's knowledge."

"Didn't you see when you came in? My shop was burned down, and there's trash piled up everywhere at the entrance," Xia Fan said, leaning back in his rocking chair.

Chen Xiaoxue turned around to look.

She had already seen it when she came in, but she hadn't thought of it that way. But now Old Deng was deliberately bringing it up...

"You mean, Ning Chuan is going to retaliate?"

"He's the only one I've offended recently," Xia Fan replied lazily, rocking back and forth in his chair.

If Ning Chuan is watching me, that would definitely be troublesome, but that's the danger that comes with agreeing to be his shield.

If you've taken all the benefits, you should also bear the risks.

Xia Fan didn't think much of it. If he had been scared at the time, he wouldn't have agreed to be a shield.

Chen Xiaoxue paused for a moment, then said, "Old Deng, are you afraid of dying?"

"I'm scared, I'm terrified of dying."

Xia Fan spoke without hesitation.

Chen Xiaoxue rolled her eyes: "What a coward."

"You'd better not roll your eyes." Xia Fan glanced at Chen Xiaoxue.

Why?

Chen Xiaoxue was puzzled, but Xia Fan didn't say anything more.

hiss.

Who would have thought that the way this girl rolled her eyes would be so captivating? As an old scholar, even though he had read countless films in his previous life, he had never seen anything so captivating.

Seeing that Xia Fan didn't speak, Chen Xiaoxue stepped out with her jade-like feet in black leather shoes, gently pushed off the counter, and sat down.

"Ning Chuan's strength is currently at the sixth level of martial artist. His talent is not considered high in the Ning family, and he is not highly regarded. But no matter what, he is still a member of the Ning family. It is not realistic to have a direct conflict with him."

Chen Xiaoxue said, organizing her thoughts.

Xia Fan waved his fan, a smile on his face: "Why are you telling me all this? I asked you to come here to clean up the mess, it has nothing to do with me."

"Old Deng, are you abandoning me?" Chen Xiaoxue asked coolly.

Xia Fan glared: "How can you expect me, an old man who's nobody, to manage this? That's the Ning family."

Chen Xiaoxue didn't say anything, but just took out her phone.

"What are you doing?" Xia Fan frowned.

"I'm going to tell my mom you stole my socks," Chen Xiaoxue replied coolly.

"Hey, you little rascal."

Xia Fan stared wide-eyed. He never expected that one day, a boomerang would hit him. This was outrageous.

"Alright, stop with the nonsense. I didn't say I wouldn't care at all. It's just that I'm not good at fighting, and I can't go toe-to-toe with the Ning family."

Xia Fan shared his thoughts.

Chen Xiaoxue put down her phone, looked at Xia Fan, and didn't say anything.

"What do you mean?" Xia Fan frowned.

Chen Xiaoxue's voice was clear and melodious: "Old Deng, can't you have some self-awareness? You? Kill? You'd be more likely to go up there and offer yourself up for death."

Xia Fan's face darkened.

It wasn't that he was bragging. With his current strength, although he was only a third-level martial artist, in the end, he relied on the Void Visualization Diagram, the blood energy he had accumulated, and the battle technique Void Sword Control Technique.

When the time comes, he'll hold the Heaven and Earth Runes in his mouth, and he thinks he can kill even Ning Chuan.

If another source of blood and energy were to appear...

His gaze fell on Chen Xiaoxue's two swaying, jade-like feet clad in small black leather shoes.

Hmm, let's not rush. We don't even know what the source of this blood energy is yet. We don't want to cause ourselves any problems.

In the world of martial arts, some things are very powerful, but without a certain level of strength, one cannot withstand them.

"We'll talk about Ning Chuan's problem later. First, tell me, have you ever heard of the source of blood and qi?"
