Xue Bufu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but hesitated.

At this moment, Zero had already run over. “Chen Xing… sob… sob…”

Chen Xing turned his head and now had the gentle expression he used to have. But he noticed a few tears rolling down Zero’s cheeks. Seeing her tears, he was instantly frozen in place.

Zero took big steps and directly threw herself into Chen Xing’s arms. “Sob… sob…”

“Why are you crying?” Chen Xing bent down and gently held her in his arms. He softly comforted her, “I’m fine, don’t cry.”

“Sob… sob…” Zero didn’t know why she was crying either. In any case, she was just scared. Even though the one lying on the ground was the miserable Old Xue. “Did you get hurt… sob… sob…”

Xue Bufu, lying on the ground, looked at the two of them helplessly and closed his eyes in resignation. Can’t you open your large, captivating eyes and see? I’m the one who got hurt!

Chen Xing smiled and shook his head, “I’m fine, I didn’t get hurt.”

“Sob… sob…” It took Zero a while to calm down from her crying.

【 Ding~ 】

A panel popped up:

【 Congratulations, host, for defeating Xue Bufu, ranked 77th in the A List of Spirit Masters. Rewards: Spirit Points: 50 million, Crystal Coins: 100 million 】

【 Congratulations, host, for defeating a Spirit Master with a higher combat power, triggering a challenge reward: Spirit Points: 90 million, Crystal Coins: 150 million 】

【 Attribute Boost: All attributes +10%. Note: The challenge reward increases proportionally with the difference in combat power. 】

“Wow! 140 million Spirit Points?! Old Xue is worth that much?!”

San’er explained:

【 This challenge reward is part of the daily tasks, so it enjoys a triple bonus from Su Su’s bestie test! 】

“Oh!” Chen Xing suddenly had a great idea for making money! “So, if I beat him every day, I’ll be rich, right?”

【 Each person can trigger it only once. 】

“Tch~”

Seeing the panel, Zero remembered the respected Teacher Xue lying on the ground. She lowered her head and looked at the motionless Xue Bufu: “Um… Teacher Xue… Are you okay?”

Xue Bufu didn’t even lift his eyelids: “Don’t want to talk…”

“Um… Is he… dead?”

“Cough…” Xue Bufu suddenly had a coughing fit, unable to catch his breath.

“Um! Chen Xing!” Terrified, Zero held onto Chen Xing tightly, looking at Xue Bufu: “Zombie… He’s a zombie?!”

Chen Xing laughed and held Zero again, asking: “Are you convinced now, Old Xue?”

Xue Bufu looked at Chen Xing who had a face full of smiles, and asked the doubts in his mind: “If you wanted to kill me, how long could I hold on?”

Hearing this, Xian was slightly surprised as he looked at Xue Bufu. What did he mean? Wasn’t this the young man’s full strength? Then he looked at Chen Xing in front of him.

“If you don’t have a weapon, it could be troublesome. With a suitable weapon, you only need…”

Chen Xing did need a good weapon right now. Although an ordinary weapon with the aura of killing could still be powerful, wouldn’t it be even better to have a stronger weapon combined with the aura of killing?

He initially thought Zero would transform into a weapon, but he didn’t expect her to transform into a demon form. In this direction of development, she might not be a weapon form at all.

So Chen Xing had already made up his mind. The next Spirit User would definitely be a weapon! As for gender, that could be decided later.

Regardless of gender, he would only have one wife, and that was Zero!

After mentally rehearsing the possibilities of their fight several times, he slowly spoke: “Three moves. But if it’s an assassination, it’s just an instant.”

“So… you’re an assassin?”

Chen Xing didn’t answer him. Instead, he looked at Zero in his arms. “Shall we go home?”

“Um… yeah…” After saying that, he was about to walk away while holding Zero.

At that moment, a person approached.

It was a young boy. He was holding two pieces of cake and eating them as he walked. He approached Xue Bufu and Chen Xing.

“Teacher Xue, it’s really you!” The boy looked at Xue Bufu lying on the ground in surprise.

Xue Bufu opened his eyes and furrowed his brows. This boy seemed familiar, but he couldn’t remember his name!

“You’re… the foodie?” He was one of his students from a certain class.

“Hehe~ You got it right, Teacher Xue! Here, have a piece of cake as a reward!” He handed a piece of cake.

Xue Bufu couldn’t even lift his hand. What a piece of crap cake! He said in an annoyed tone, “Thanks, but no thanks.”

“Alright, Teacher, what are you doing?”

“Performance art?”

“Soaking up the sun?”

“Is the ground cool?”

“Lying for too long makes it squishy, you know!”

Xue Bufu: ??? Can’t you keep your mouth shut even when eating?

Zero and Chen Xing looked curiously at the boy in front of them. In the time it took him to say those few sentences, he had already stuffed several pieces of cake into his mouth. But his figure remained well-proportioned without gaining weight.

The foodie boy noticed Chen Xing and Zero looking at him, especially Zero, with her adorable big eyes full of curiosity.

What a beautiful little girl! The foodie boy inwardly marveled. He then offered a piece of cake, “Do you want some cake?”

“Um… no, thank you!”

“It’s alright, take it.” With that, he tossed the cake directly towards Chen Xing and Zero.

Chen Xing easily caught the piece of cake and said expressionlessly, “Thanks.”

“You’re welcome!”

After that, Chen Xing turned around, holding Zero, and walked away.

Only the shocked onlookers remained, as well as Xue Bufu, who was lying motionless on the ground, and the bewildered Xian. And the foodie boy, chewing on his cake.

The foodie boy noticed that Xue Bufu and Xian were both lying on the ground and felt a bit puzzled.

So he decided to lie down too.

Xue Bufu: “What are you doing?”

Foodie Boy: “I want to know what you’re doing.”

“You better leave me alone…”

“Tsk…” As soon as the boy heard that, he quickly got up from the ground and mumbled incoherently, “Xue Bufu is angry, better run away.”

Just as he was about to run, suddenly!

A group of people surrounded the three of them. It was the familiar faces of Chen Tianming and Yang He.

“The three of you are suspected of maliciously damaging public property! Come with us!”

Xue Bufu: ???

Foodie Boy: What’s going on? Why does it concern me!

Then Chen Tianming looked at someone nearby and asked, “What happened? Can someone explain?”

“I recorded it!”

Someone walked up, wanting to play the recording but found…

“Wtf! Where’s my recording? It’s all black! Oh no! My Spirit System is broken.”

People at the scene checked their own Spirit systems. They all had black screens. No one knew what was happening.

Chen Tianming had no choice but to have Xue Bufu carried back to the Regulatory Bureau. Of course, with the report from the driving school, Chen Xing definitely couldn’t escape…

After investigation, it was confirmed that the foodie boy had nothing to do with it, so they let him go.

So…

Inside the Regulatory Bureau, Chen Xing, Zero, Xue Bufu, and Xian sat helplessly in the interrogation room.

“Officer! He insisted on fighting with me! Looking for trouble for no reason! He should compensate me for the damages!”

Xue Bufu: Can you act like a decent person? Didn’t you destroy the ceiling?

“Well, I don’t have any money anyway!” Xue Bufu confidently stated, and Chen Xing had never seen anyone assert not having money with such momentum before!

I don’t have money, what can you do? The driving school demanded a total compensation of 200 million crystal coins! Xue Bufu couldn’t afford that; he was just an ordinary worker.

In the end, after negotiations, Xue Bufu and Chen Xing each had to pay 100 million.

Xue Bufu didn’t have the money. Having no money, he could only be detained until someone came to rescue him!

“Goodbye!”

Chen Xing waved and smiled at him, holding Zero’s little hand, and closed the door with a loud “bang.”

Xue Bufu and Xian were left with black lines on their faces.

“Brother Xue… What should we do?” Xian was on the verge of tears. 100 million crystal coins, where could they get that kind of money!

Xue Bufu had a serious expression on his face. “Why panic? Three meals a day, food and shelter provided. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Xian, “But I have a family!”

“You better leave now. Your girlfriends are the ones who have families!”

“Erm…”

…

“Um… Chen Xing… Old Xue is so pitiful…”

“He deserves it.” Chen Xing helplessly commented. He just walked out of the Regulatory Bureau while holding little Zero’s hand.

“Um…” Zero actually wanted Chen Xing to help Xue Bufu with some temporary funds. But she didn’t know how to ask, considering it was his crystal coins. But she forgot that it was because of her that Chen Xing could earn so many crystal coins!

Chen Xing led Zero to a department.

A staff member asked, “Hello, how can I assist you?”

“There’s someone named Xue Bufu inside, and I’m here to bail him out by paying 100 million crystal coins on his behalf.”

“Alright, please wait.”

“Hehe…” Zero looked happily at Chen Xing.

When he saw her laughing, he asked, “What’s so funny? Why are you so happy?”

Zero shook her head while smiling and tightly hugged Chen Xing’s arm, whispering softly, “I love you~”

Hehe… Turns out Chen Xing thinks the same way as me! Could this be telepathy… hehe.

“Why are you laughing?”

“Hehe… I won’t tell you! Hmph~” With that, she raised her little head and made a funny face at him.

Chen Xing couldn’t help but laugh and pretended to be fierce, “I think you need… a hug!”

He bent down and lifted her up.

“Um… I don’t… put me down!”

After the staff member in front of them finished processing the card, they quickly slammed it onto the table. “Snap!”

“Hello, you’re all set.” (Get out of here quickly!)

Chen Xing, carrying Zero, had just walked out of the gate of the Regulatory Bureau when Xue Bufu and Xian came chasing after them.

“Chen Xing!”

Chen Xing waved his hand and said, “You owe me 100 million, remember to pay me back!”

“I’ll come to your house!”

Chen Xing furrowed his brow and turned to look at him, still holding Zero.

“Want to fight again?”

Xue Bufu shook his head and said, “No more fighting. I just want to come over and hang out, can’t I get a free meal?”

In reality, he wanted to ask Chen Xing about the martial arts techniques he used today. He wanted to learn!

“A free meal? There’s no food!”

Heartless!

Xue Bufu: “Then I won’t eat, can I just hang out?”

“Are you admitting defeat?”

Xue Bufu: ???

“I… “

“Hmm?”

“I admit defeat!”

“Say it properly.”

“…I …Admit… Defeat!” Xue Bufu was furious!

But he couldn’t win the fight! What could he do?

Upon hearing this, Chen Xing suppressed his laughter and said, “You have to say, ‘I, Xue Bufu, admit defeat!'”

“Don’t go too far!” Xue Bufu glared at him!

“Hahaha…” Chen Xing suddenly burst into laughter.

Xue Bufu looked at him with a disdainful expression, really wanting to punch him!

“But you have to ask if my wife agrees or not.” Saying that, Chen Xing lowered his head and looked at Zero with a smile on his face. He lightly scratched under her chin with his index finger. The gesture was like teasing a little animal.

“Um… it tickles~”

“Ow!”

Zero grabbed his hand and bit it. “Hmph… I’ll bite you!”

“It doesn’t hurt… bite harder!” Chen Xing extended his finger again and lightly poked her lips. They were soft and elastic.

Xue Bufu: ?? Is it too late for me to leave now? Why did I come to their house!?

“Hmph…” Zero felt insulted! She hmphed and turned her head away, ignoring Chen Xing. Instead, she looked at Xue Bufu.

“Teacher Xue! Welcome to our house~ Chen Xing’s cooking is so delicious.”

Xue Bufu: “Thank you…” Inner thoughts: But I might not be able to eat…

So the four of them got into Xue Bufu’s car. Xue Bufu drove, Xian sat in the passenger seat, and Chen Xing and Zero sat in the back.

“Chen Xing.” Xue Bufu suddenly spoke up.

“What’s up?”

“I want to change careers.”

“Huh?” Chen Xing looked puzzled: Change careers? What kind of career change? More importantly, why does it concern me?

Xian was also curious:

“What career do you want to change to? Aren’t you just a single working guy?”

Xue Bufu drove the car with a blank expression, his gaze firmly fixed on the road ahead. He slowly said: “I don’t want to be a public teacher anymore. I want to be an assassin.”

Xian: “Haha!?”

Zero: ???

Chen Xing: “…”

【 Hahaha… 】

“Teach me.”

“No time!”
