Chu Qianqian's pale face froze in an instant as she lowered her head to look at her chest, where a crimson stain had appeared.

"No..."

Qin Fang let out a thunderous roar, his face filled with urgency as he rushed in front of Chu Qianqian. The silver needle in his hand flashed as he swiftly inserted it near Chu Qianqian's heart meridian.

The gun used was a Beretta 92F 9mm, a pistol with a strong killing power at close range, and the mercenary was less than a meter away from Chu Qianqian. The bullet entered from her back, piercing through her chest cavity and exiting through the front in an instant.

Although the bullet hadn't struck the heart directly, it was pretty close, and the bright red blood gushed out as if it were free...

Qin Fang used The Nine Revival Needles to temporarily seal Chu Qianqian's heart meridian, which could keep her alive for a short time, but she needed to be rushed to a hospital immediately for treatment.

"Am I… going to die?"

Chu Qianqian's face was deathly pale, her spirit exhausted from the loss of so much blood, yet she managed to squeeze out a slight smile and still had the strength to speak to Qin Fang.

Just now, Chu Qianqian didn't need to take the risk she did. At such close range, Qin Fang faced great danger too, but perhaps he could have dodged that bullet...

But in the final moments, Chu Qianqian's collision knocked the mercenary away from behind her, allowing Qin Fang to deliver a fatal shot. However, it was Chu Qianqian who tragically ended up being hit, and severely so.

"Don't talk, relax, stay calm..."

Qin Fang's heart was heavy as he faced a girl who had sacrificed herself for others. He didn't know what to say. All he could think about was that he had to get her to a hospital; he had to save this girl.

He gently reassured Chu Qianqian, who needed to remain calm at this time and not get agitated, or her blood would flow even faster, possibly putting her beyond help before reaching the hospital.

"I'm going to take you to the hospital now, I can definitely save you..."

While speaking, Qin Fang immediately carried Chu Qianqian in his arms and with rapid strength in his legs turned into a black shadow, rushing down the mountain.

"It's already too late..."

Though lying in Qin Fang's arms, Chu Qianqian was surprisingly calm, her beautiful face filled with a heartbreaking smile as she spoke.

"Don't speak, there's hope for you..."

Qin Fang reassured her tenderly. There was indeed hope for Chu Qianqian, "You will soon enter a Turtle Breathing State, which will minimize your bodily functions to the extreme. As long as I get you to the hospital within half an hour, there's a chance..."

Chu Qianqian's injury was extremely critical; without Qin Fang's Acupuncture Secret Technique of The Nine Revival Needles, she wouldn't last three minutes...

But with the secret technique of The Nine Revival Needles, Qin Fang managed to induce the Turtle Breathing State in Chu Qianqian, slowing her bodily function consumption to one-tenth of normal, effectively buying her another half-hour to live...

However, if she didn't receive treatment within that half-hour, not even gods descending from heaven could save her!

The location was too remote; there were no people nearby. Qin Fang had to hurry to a populated area to find a hospital.

Qin Fang pushed his speed to the limit, moving like a gust of wind. It took them several minutes to climb this small mountain of over a hundred meters at their fastest, but now, Qin Fang took less than a minute to reach the ground.

Qin Fang's car was parked on the distant road. To quickly find a hospital, relying on his legs alone wouldn't be enough; he needed his car.

Though not entirely sure if the Remnant Wolf Mercenary Corps had left someone to watch the car, Qin Fang no longer had time to consider it. His only thought was that he must save Chu Qianqian.

They swiftly crossed the few hundred meters distance. There were four cars parked on the side of the road, one of which belonged to Qin Fang. The other three were clearly from the Remnant Wolf Mercenary Corps, yet the place was empty, astonishingly with no one on guard...

Qin Fang couldn't worry about that now. His own car was blocked, so he immediately rushed to the last car belonging to the Remnant Wolf Mercenary Corps. Fortunately, the car keys were there. Qin Fang immediately got in with Chu Qianqian, started the car, and sped off towards the nearby highway at full throttle, driving as fast as possible toward the city center.

Blood was still seeping from Chu Qianqian's wound. Though Qin Fang had managed to stem it and close off the heart meridian, time was incredibly tight...

By then, Chu Qianqian had already entered the Turtle Breathing State, her face free of any pain, her eyes half-closed, she looked so peaceful and beautiful, like a legendary Sleeping Beauty waiting for her prince's kiss to awaken her.

Qin Fang's speed was incredibly fast. In just a few seconds, the speedometer passed two hundred miles per hour and was still climbing...

The car was one from the Remnant Wolf Mercenary Corps and had been specially modified. Despite its unassuming appearance, its performance was unparalleled even by many sports cars.

Qin Fang possessed advanced Riding Skill, and he effortlessly handled the driving. During car races, he could easily defeat many rivals, and now in a race against time to save a life, he was fully utilizing his skills...

Capital City is a significant area of the capital, and though the outskirts might be less populated with wider roads and fewer cars, the closer you get to the city center, the more crowded it becomes, and the more vehicles there are on the road.

However, Qin Fang needed to get to the city, and under normal driving conditions, it would take an hour—a considerable distance. Only by driving at such excessive speeds could he possibly make it in time!

...

On the side of the road, two traffic cops bitterly drank the northwestern wind and chatted, one barely in his twenties seemed very young, the other slightly older, apparently a veteran officer.

"Boss, we really are miserable, having to catch street racers in the dead of night..."

"You have the nerve to say that? If it hadn't been for your damn mistake of pissing off the captain, would I be suffering along with you? Everyone knows those so-called street racers are actually Young Masters from the Capital City, just bored out of their minds and coming out to race... Asking us to catch them? Whoever tries is asking for trouble..."

"Boss, I'm sorry, it's my fault you're in this mess!"

"Ah, forget it… After all, I'm good with your brother! Let's just hope we get lucky and run into some drunk drivers or speeders, then we can nab anyone to take the fall!"

Whoosh~~

As they spoke, a sports car zoomed by on the highway, producing a piercing noise.

"Boss, should we catch that one?"

The young cop immediately pointed at the speeding car in the distance and asked, the radar gun displaying a speed of over 180, seriously over the limit.

Smack~~

A knock to the head was his answer.

"Catch your sister, didn't you see that's a Little Golden Bull..."

The older traffic cop cursed helplessly while watching the distant Little Golden Bull, clearly one of those untouchable Young Masters from the Capital City; they, being mere traffic cops, truly did not dare to provoke.

Whoosh~Whoosh~Whoosh~~

Almost as they spoke, several more sports cars sped by, all also exceeding 180, and without exception, they were modified cars.

This time the young cop was smarter, knowing that these cars' owners were not people they could afford to offend. He pretended to see nothing, allowing those cars to speed away.

"You finally got smart, not bad, not bad..."

The veteran cop even offered a merry bit of praise, then he pulled out a cigarette and started to smoke, continuing on lookout here. They both knew very well that although this road didn't have much traffic, it had a speed limit, and it was common for people to speed at night. They could easily catch anyone violating the law, the only thing to watch out for was not to catch those Young Masters street racing.

Whoosh~~~

But before he had taken two puffs, a car sped past them.

"Fuck, that's way too fast. Are they trying to get themselves killed?"

The cop responsible for the radar cursed immediately, clearly pained by the forceful wind the passing car had generated, indicating a horrific speed.

"Damn, three… three hundred eight..."

However, when he looked down at the radar, he was instantly dumbstruck by the number displayed, nearly compelling him to bash his head against a wall.

"Dammit, is this thing broken?"

Although he hadn't been a cop for very long, he loved cars and had caught plenty of speeders, including the racers earlier who were only going around 200. But now, suddenly facing a speed of 308, he felt like he was seeing ghosts.

Of course, seeing a ghost was impossible, so it must be the radar that was broken…

Smack~~

Another knock to the head accompanied the veteran cop's roar, "Broken my ass, that guy was speeding!"

"It really was speeding… uh, I meant to ask, Boss, do we... pursue?"

The young cop looked pitiful,

"Chase what, at 308? Can our crappy car catch up?"

The older cop cursed irritably, then continued smoking his cigarette, got on the police car, and drove forward at an unhurried pace, looking very much at ease, nothing like someone about to chase a speeder.

Just as he said, with speeds like 308, even driving the top sports cars might not be enough to catch up, provided someone had the guts to drive that fast.

"Whoever's driving must be insane, just throwing their life away... Even if they don't die in a crash, they'll probably blow the engine and overturn... We'll just have to clean up afterwards!"(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote, your support is my greatest motivation.)
