Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Grandpa Zhuge, if Xia Liu's guess is correct.

It should be the commander of the Harbor City District, Zhuge Yingtian.

In the past, Xia Liu had paid attention to Huaxia's military districts.

Mainly because Spearhead and Heaven Slaying were particularly troublesome.

The Harbor City area has been very calm; even if they come, it shouldn't be a big issue.

Zhuge Yingtian, however, is quite famous.

Famous for being mild-mannered.

But if you touch his bottom line.

Then you'll experience a thunderous strike.

Although Xia Liu knew these things, he didn't say anything.

His current identity is Guo Man's personal bodyguard; her words are his orders.

As a retired special forces soldier, all he needs to do is carry out the mission.

Additionally, Xia Liu was unaware of Zhuge Yingtian's circumstances.

He is the commander of Harbor City, and it's highly likely he has close ties with several mainland military districts.

Would he see through Xia Liu's identity?

The answer is uncertain.

"Xia Liu, I'll head back to work first. After you finish eating, you can get off work."

To Xia Liu's surprise, Guo Man didn't insist that he follow her.

She probably thinks Xia Liu didn't hear the content of the recent call.

Liang Yu and Liang Chao are absolutely connected.

Is she protecting me?

Xia Liu was somewhat at a loss.

If Guo Man insisted on him accompanying her.

Perhaps Xia Liu would feel a bit resistant in his heart.

But her way of safeguarding him, preventing him from appearing before Liang Yu.

Really made Xia Liu feel conflicted.

"Because of me, this incident involving Liang Chao happened. I won't avoid responsibility."

Hmm?

Just as she was about to turn away, Guo Man suddenly stopped in her tracks, her body trembling slightly.

"How did you know I was going to deal with Liang Chao's matter?"

Guo Man asked incredulously, staring at Xia Liu.

"I've undergone professional special forces training, and my skills in various aspects have improved. I heard the content of the call just now."

Xia Liu replied seriously.

"If you go, it might be dangerous. I can handle it; you don't need to take risks."

Guo Man realized her behavior earlier had been somewhat abnormal.

Coupled with Xia Liu's incredible hearing ability, it was normal for him to know the details.

But even as strong as he was, being targeted by Liang Yu would still be humiliating.

Liang Yu is a King Level figure in Harbor City's right district.

And in recent years, he's been ferocious.

Rumor has it, he can single-handedly take down ten King Level opponents.

He has long surpassed the limits of ordinary humans.

Xia Liu retired due to injury; even if he was once very strong, his injured and retired status has likely diminished his abilities significantly.

Facing someone in his prime, with mastery like Liang Yu, Xia Liu's presence would only complicate matters further.

"It's my responsibility, and I won't avoid it."

Xia Liu remained resolute.

This was the best chance to prove himself in front of Guo Man.

Even if he got injured this time, it wouldn't matter.

It would better demonstrate his resolve, helping Guo Man truly let down her guard.

If possible, make this beauty fall for him.

The mission would then truly be expedited.

"You really want to go?"

"Yes."

"Alright then, eat more food first. Later, hold your ground for us; we have the moral high ground. Even if Liang Yu wants to stir up trouble, he'll have to think twice about whether he has the capability."

At the final statement, Guo Man's aura suddenly emanated a sense of authority.

It almost made Xia Liu mistakenly believe that this wasn't a presence she could naturally exude.

"Understood."

Xia Liu didn't go against Guo Man and, in the next three minutes, astonishingly cleared two plates of meat on the table.

"Ready to set off at any time."

Wiping the grease off his lips, Xia Liu said with a somber tone.

"Haha, the way you eat is indeed serious. Don't worry, nothing unexpected will happen."

Guo Man smiled radiantly, then took the lead and stepped out of the private room.

"I actually hope something unexpected happens; that way, I can prove myself."

Xia Liu felt somewhat helpless and hoped Liang Yu would be even stronger and more domineering than imagined.

At the coastal edge of Harbor City, ten miles of desolation outside. In front of a dense barbed wire fence, a yellow Hummer blocked the road.

Beside the Hummer stood a Jeep and a Dongfeng truck.

As the sea breeze blew gently, the tarpaulin on the truck fluttered slightly.

You could faintly see two rows of stern-looking, uniformed men sitting upright inside the truck.

Their righteous energy radiated unmistakably.

In front of the truck, stood a young man and a black-haired elder.

Across from them, there was also an elder and a youth.

In terms of aura, the opposite pair felt weaker because the elder's hair and eyebrows were all white.

If not for the vitality in his sharp eyes, the white-haired elder's aura might have been even more diminished.

"Zhuge Yingtian, although you're one rank higher than me, I'm here to complete a mission, which you have no right to obstruct, right?"

The black-haired elder narrowed his eyes, his ruthless words striking Zhuge Yingtian.

"Li Bai, we're both people in our fifties and sixties; let's not meddle in the affairs of the young."

Zhuge Yingtian smiled faintly, his voice tinged with bitterness and understanding.

"Yingtian, it's not that I want to interfere, but this matter is extraordinary. So please let me pass."

Li Bai's tone softened, years of service evident in his demeanor.

He understood Zhuge Yingtian's temperament, but in this matter, he couldn't afford to be careless.

Otherwise, he risked losing someone who could become a future King of Soldiers Level general.

"Liang Yu, I want to ask you a question."

Zhuge Yingtian shifted his gaze to the man standing beside Li Bai.

His bearing was extraordinary, radiating an imposing aura.

Though no exposed muscles were visible, his presence alone felt tangible and real.

Even ordinary people could sense his strength and dominance.

"Commander Zhuge, please speak plainly."

Though he saluted, Liang Yu showed no signs of respect.

The disdain in his eyes, the lazy posture leaning against the jeep…

Every detail, Liang Yu displayed an aloof and untouchable demeanor.

"Regarding the incident with Liang Chao, I believe you already know the details. Liang Chao was indeed in the wrong; it shouldn't have escalated to blades and violence."

"Hmph! If Guo Man had done something to my younger brother, I'd have no complaints. But a bodyguard, a mere security guard, nearly took my brother's life—there must be consequences!"

Liang Yu snorted coldly, clearly having his own perspective on the matter.

And he seemed well-informed about everything that transpired.

"Liang Yu, are you trying to bully ordinary citizens with your brute strength?"

At this moment, the youth beside Zhuge Yingtian spoke up, releasing a faint and distinct aura simultaneously.

"Heh, Guo Ye, let me be blunt. Your family's Guo Man can do whatever she wants in the business world. But if an outsider dares bully the Liang family, the nature of this changes. You'd better not get involved; otherwise…"

Liang Yu trailed off. If Guo Ye wanted to protect Xia Liu and Lina, it didn't matter—the consequences were his own to bear!

Rumble rumble rumble...

Just as Guo Ye was about to speak, suddenly, an ear-piercing roar echoed from the distance.

It was a BMW M-series coupe...
