Starting with a Breakup: Why Is the True Heiress My Possessive Ex? - Chapter 66
The burst of fury that erupted from Xiao Ge was simply unbelievable.
His iron fists struck the Fluxbeast in rapid succession, leaving it no chance to resist.
The sheer impact was almost impossible to describe.
Every punch.
Every blow.
Each one carried overwhelming force.
Even just watching the battle left Su Qingya speechless.
Xiao Ge’s body continued to expand.
He had only been slightly more muscular than an ordinary person before.
Now…
He stood over two meters tall, his entire body packed with bulging muscles.
The only thing visible was a storm of fists crashing relentlessly into the Fluxbeast, accompanied by Xiao Ge’s thunderous roars of rage.
There were no dazzling techniques.
No bizarre abilities.
Only absolute strength.
Pure violence that crushed every trick before it.
Meanwhile…
Leng Xiao maintained complete control over the battlefield.
The steady ringing of her bell froze the Fluxbeast’s thoughts.
It could only stand there helplessly as Xiao Ge’s furious fists rained down upon it.
The concrete floor beneath them cracked apart under the impact.
Yet…
The creature offered no resistance.
Perhaps because of the bell’s influence…
Even while enduring those devastating blows…
Its mind remained utterly tranquil.
Empty.
Emotionless.
Even as its body was torn apart…
It never struggled.
Su Qingya had no intention of joining the fight.
Chen Qiu had warned her before.
Never approach an Anger Path Fluxweaver while they’re fighting.
Not even if they’re your teammate.
No one could predict what fueled their rage.
And anger had a habit of consuming reason.
Leng Xiao also kept a close eye on Su Qingya, preventing her from making any rash moves.
Besides…
Watching such an overwhelming battle…
Even if Su Qingya wanted to help…
She didn’t dare.
It was simply too terrifying.
She couldn’t help wondering…
What exactly had made Captain Xiao this angry?
As she watched him fight…
She tried to understand.
How could someone ignite such overwhelming fury in such a short amount of time?
If she could learn that…
Perhaps she could become stronger herself.
But…
She had no idea how to ask.
Boom!
Another punch landed.
The hospital’s fourth-floor concrete collapsed beneath the impact.
Captain Xiao’s massive arm pierced straight through the Fluxbeast’s chest.
When he withdrew it…
A glowing emotional core rested in his hand.
Once the core was removed…
The Fluxbeast instantly lost all signs of life.
Su Qingya stood frozen.
Only then did she realize…
She hadn’t contributed anything at all.
Leng Xiao seemed to read her thoughts.
“Su Qingya.”
“Bringing you here wasn’t so you could fight.”
“It was so you could learn.”
She looked toward Captain Xiao.
“Now…”
“You should understand what teamwork really means.”
Su Qingya silently nodded.
An Anger Path Fluxweaver…
paired with a Tranquility Path Fluxweaver…
had effortlessly overwhelmed a four-star Fluxbeast.
The increase in combat power produced by complementary Paths…
was almost frightening.
For some reason…
She suddenly felt relieved.
She was the main attacker.
Xu Nian was support.
Perhaps…
One day…
The two of them could fight together like this as well.
Another bell rang softly.
Captain Xiao gradually calmed down.
The violent rage faded from his eyes almost instantly.
The compatibility between Anger and Tranquility…
really was extraordinary.
“This thing prepared quite a few traps for us.”
Captain Xiao looked at the emotional core in his hand.
“If Xu Nian hadn’t warned us beforehand…”
“We probably would’ve walked straight into them.”
He spoke very honestly.
Without trying to hide it…
He openly acknowledged Xu Nian’s contribution.
“…How did she know all that?”
Captain Xiao frowned.
“She guessed everything perfectly.”
He casually tossed the emotional core toward Su Qingya.
“Hold onto this for me.”
Leng Xiao offered no objection.
Allowing Su Qingya to spend more time around high-level emotional cores could only benefit her growth.
Su Qingya accepted it absentmindedly.
She was equally puzzled.
How had Xu Nian known?
She had been stationed outside the hospital the entire time.
But…
That wasn’t important now.
“Let’s head back.”
Captain Xiao turned around.
“Xu Nian’s probably getting worried.”
“…Actually.”
Leng Xiao corrected him calmly.
“The entire battle lasted less than a minute.”
A faint blush quietly appeared on Su Qingya’s cheeks.
At that moment—
The communicator suddenly crackled to life.
“Captain!”
“Something’s wrong!”
“It’s Xu Nian!”
Gu Tong’s anxious voice came through immediately.
“What happened?”
Captain Xiao frowned.
“How could something happen?”
“Weren’t you with her the entire time?”
“I was!”
Gu Tong hurriedly explained.
“I’ve been standing beside her this whole time!”
“But…”
“She suddenly disappeared!”
“I swear!”
“I only blinked once!”
“The moment I opened my eyes…”
“She was gone!”
“It was like watching a magic trick!”
Her usually cheerful voice was filled with panic.
Even as a Joy Path Fluxweaver…
She couldn’t possibly stay smiling under circumstances like these.
She wasn’t heartless.
“What?!”
The moment Su Qingya heard those words…
She rushed forward without hesitation.
Dong—!
Leng Xiao immediately rang her bell.
Su Qingya’s body froze in place.
“You’re acting too impulsively.”
“How can I stay calm?!”
“Xu Nian disappeared!”
“She has to be in danger!”
“…Taking the stairs is too slow.”
Captain Xiao suddenly looked toward the nearby window.
He tried opening it.
It wouldn’t budge.
Without another word—
He punched straight through the window frame.
Glass shattered everywhere.
He caught the broken frame before it could fall, preventing debris from crashing onto the street below.
Then—
He jumped.
From the fourth floor.
He landed steadily on the ground.
The impact left a shallow crater beneath his feet.
“C-Captain?”
Gu Tong was startled by the sudden arrival.
But she recovered almost immediately.
“Captain…”
“Xu Nian disappeared right here.”
Captain Xiao carefully examined the ground.
“…There are traces of a Fluxweapon being activated.”
Su Qingya glanced toward the shattered window.
She immediately wanted to follow Captain Xiao’s example.
Leng Xiao grabbed her.
“Are you trying to kill yourself?”
“This is the fourth floor.”
“Not everyone has skin as thick as Captain Xiao.”
“But—”
“Use your ability.”
Leng Xiao reminded her once more.
Only then did Su Qingya react.
Fear…
Distorted reality.
In the next instant…
Her surroundings twisted.
When the distortion faded…
She had already appeared beside Captain Xiao.
Although she stumbled slightly after landing…
She had crossed directly from the fourth floor to the first.
Leng Xiao…
could only make her way downstairs normally.
“How is it?”
Captain Xiao asked.
“The traces are still here.”
“They haven’t completely faded.”
“It shouldn’t be difficult to track.”
“…But.”
“This kind of investigation is Chen Qiu’s specialty.”
“The Persistence Path excels at tracking.”
“They’re practically born detectives.”
“But…”
“Their combat ability isn’t particularly outstanding.”
Unfortunately…
Chen Qiu was still back at the bureau.
By the time he arrived…
It would already be too late.
Suddenly—
The memories from the Ferris wheel at the amusement park surged back into Su Qingya’s mind.
Those thoughts instantly filled every corner of her consciousness.
She couldn’t think about anything else.
[Fear Value: 90%]
Darkness began spreading around her once again.
Even Captain Xiao could clearly feel the biting chill radiating from her.
This time…
Even Leng Xiao’s bell could no longer suppress it.
Su Qingya gripped her chainsaw.
She yanked the starter cord.
The deafening roar of the spinning blade echoed through the street.
Even Captain Xiao and Gu Tong instinctively felt their hearts tighten.
“Su Qingya!”
Captain Xiao shouted.
“…Niannian.”
“I’ll find you.”
The rapidly spinning blade sliced through empty space.
It was as though…
Reality itself had been torn apart.
Captain Xiao’s eyes widened.
“…She actually cut through space?”
Beyond the jagged tear…
Another world gradually came into view.
A theater.
At the center of that theater…
stood a scarlet stage.
