Facing Qin Shuman's attack, Qiu Tu was unfazed.
If Qin Shuman really had the intention to kill him, his [Crisis Intuition] would have warned him long ago.
And now... since [Crisis Intuition] hadn't issued a warning, it proved that... all of this was merely this woman's "amusement".
Thinking thus, Qiu Tu didn't dodge but even purposely leaned his neck closer, intending to see if Qin Shuman truly wanted to kill him.
As expected, at the critical moment, the gleaming cold light from the dagger halted at Qiu Tu's throat.
Qin Shuman asked in a sultry voice, "Chief Qiu~~ you're not dodging? Do you think I still need you to help me recover my body, so you dare not kill me?"
Hearing Qin Shuman's words, Qiu Tu reached out and wrapped his arm around her slender waist, pressing her hot body tightly against his own muscular one.
Then he whispered into Qin Shuman's ear, "No... it's that I would be willing to die by your hand."
Hearing Qiu Tu's cheesy sweet nothings, Qin Shuman's face turned slightly red, and the next second, she angrily thrust the dagger into Qiu Tu's shoulder!
Unfortunately... the dagger in her hand was pliable, merely a piece of silver-glittering paper, and couldn't hurt anyone at all.
Seeing this, Qiu Tu played along and cried out, "Ouch, ouch, ouch. Miss Shuman, you have to take responsibility."
Qin Shuman was amused by Qiu Tu's shameless manner.
She lifted her leg and gave Qiu Tu a knee strike in the stomach, laughing, "So shameless."
Qiu Tu clutched his stomach but didn't forget to flirt, "Seems like you still care for me, or else you'd have aimed two inches lower."
"You!" Qin Shuman was so annoyed she itched to really give Qiu Tu a blow there.
But regrettably, after teasing, Qiu Tu immediately protected himself thoroughly, giving her no chance at all.
Seeing this, she glared at Qiu Tu in frustration, but she didn't continue the tussle and instead turned around, switched on the light, and strode into the room, motioning with her hand, "Come on. Let's talk."
It had to be said, Qin Shuman indeed was quite the enchantress. She could be enticing when she wanted and absolutely serious when she needed to be. Just a few steps she took exuded the air of a female officer's bold and resolute bearing.
Witnessing this, Qiu Tu also put away his playful demeanor and followed her into the room.
They entered a hotel bedroom with twin beds.
On one of the beds lay a woman wearing a dark green military uniform.
The woman appeared younger than Qin Shuman, but equally stunning. Contrasted with Qin Shuman's fully bloomed, myriad charms, she conveyed a more steely presence and less coquettish allure.
Qiu Tu scrutinized her closely, vaguely seeing some of Qin Shuman's features in her.
He couldn't help but look up at Qin Shuman and asked, "Is this your own body?"
At that moment, Qin Shuman was also looking at her own body. Hearing Qiu Tu's words, she nodded slightly with complex emotions in her eyes.
However, the next second, she snapped back to reality, then glanced at Qiu Tu skeptically, "Feeling a bit disappointed?"
Qiu Tu looked at her in confusion, "Disappointed?"
His tone changed, "I'm even more excited, okay!"
Qin Shuman choked, throwing him a coquettish glare, "You're utterly incorrigible."
Qiu Tu laughed, knowing what Qin Shuman wanted to ask, and sincerely complimented, "Actually, both are comparable."
Qin Shuman's lips curled up into a slight smile, which quickly faded.
She strode to a chair and began discussing serious matters, "You said you could help me recover my body?"
Qiu Tu nodded and then took out the [Nightmare Crystal Vial] from his pocket.
He explained, "This is a Cataclysmic treasure, named [Purification Holy Vial]. Its effect is to cleanse all Catastrophe Power from the body just by drinking the liquid inside."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Qin Shuman eyed the [Nightmare Crystal Vial] skeptically.
Then she looked at Qiu Tu with a cynical smile, "Chief Qiu wouldn't be playing tricks on me, would you~? Is there really such a Cataclysmic treasure in this world?"
Qiu Tu unblinkingly and unflinchingly nodded.
"If you don't believe it, you can try it."
Saying this, Qiu Tu handed the [Nightmare Crystal Vial] to Qin Shuman.
Seeing Qiu Tu's confidence, Qin Shuman uncertainly took the crystal bottle.
Pulling out the stopper, she brought it to her nose and fanned lightly with her hand. A strong scent of alcohol assailed her senses.
She looked toward Qiu Tu with some suspicion.
Qiu Tu confidently gestured with his hand.
After a moment's hesitation, Qin Shuman tipped her head back and drank it all.
As the liquid from the crystal bottle went down her throat, Qin Shuman furrowed her brows; the liquid smelled like alcohol, and upon swallowing... it felt like alcohol too!
Burning, acrid, and it was 56-degree liquor!
Qin Shuman frowned, swallowing the alcohol, then looked up at Qiu Tu with fiery eyes,
'Could this bad man actually be deceiving her?'
At this time, seeing Qin Shuman drink the liquor, Qiu Tu standing in front of her also timely used his own ability [Reshape Order]...
The next second, the gray mist reappeared, and matter was extracted.
'Remove the Cataclysmic ability from this woman's body, and let her soul return.'
As Qiu Tu set the rules, a mysterious power suddenly descended upon Qin Shuman with force.
The second before, Qin Shuman was questioning Qiu Tu. The next second, she felt darkness before her eyes and lost consciousness...
Watching Qin Shuman slowly collapse onto the bed, Qiu Tu immediately knew the ability had taken effect.
He tried to lift his ability. The next second, dizziness followed.
Qiu Tu hurriedly sat beside the bed, silently recovering.
