Dark Department Xiu Ju watched in horror as twenty-three tasks came pushing through from the Bounty Hunters platform.

Of those tasks, seventeen involved stealing bank vaults, and as Xiu Ju, who personally participated in the investigation, recognized at a glance, all these vaults belonged to Bianyi. What's more terrifying is that the bounty for these tasks had been prepaid onto the Bounty Hunters' platform.

In other words, as soon as anyone completed a task, they could immediately get the money.

But that's not all.

What's even more frightening is that these tasks were released through the Bounty Hunters platform as three-star push tasks, meaning only hunters below three stars couldn't see these tasks.

To reach the standard of a three-star hunter on the Bounty Hunters platform, one didn't just need to accumulate experience points through completing tasks; there was an even more crucial requirement: to become a three-star hunter or above on the platform's website, one must possess the strength of at least the Mixed Element Realm.

This meant that all who received the related tasks were strong enough to stand on their own!

For them, ordinary bank guards were practically non-existent.

And because what was involved was not state property but privately rented bank vaults,

Banks' actual policy for leased safe deposit boxes is "lease without care," nominally, the bank's insurance is for "custody," but the vast majority of banks will indicate in the contract: "Party B (the bank) is responsible for the security of the safe deposit box only and not for the quality and quantity of the items Party A stores inside."

This means that as long as the safe deposit box is still in the bank, whatever you have inside and how much stuff you have, the bank doesn't know.

So, as long as the box is still there, whatever you say you've lost, the bank doesn't care, nor do they have to compensate.

Therefore, under such circumstances, even if Dragon Group were informed, they would not deploy strong agents to guard them.

So for those hunters above three stars, such tasks are basically like picking up money.

As for the combination locks and keys,

For those whose cultivation has reached the Mixed Element Realm, it's not a problem at all.

So, in just a moment's distraction from Dark Department Xiu Ju, two out of the seventeen tasks to steal vaults were already completed.

"It's Shen Qiang! It must be Shen Qiang!"

Xiu Ju's eyes widened, her figure flashed, and she was already in front of the door. With a push, Xiu Ju was surprised to find no trace of Shen Qiang in the small hotel room. Just as she subconsciously thought that Shen Qiang might have left her behind, she heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

Dark Department Xiu Ju, anxious at heart, slammed the bathroom door open.

She saw at a glance a naked Shen Qiang, washing off the shampoo lather under the showerhead.

Xiu Ju was stunned.

Her gaze, filled with shock, fell upon Shen Qiang's body, which had become more chiseled through the hardship of recent cultivation, following the bubbles from the top down, sliding over Shen Qiang's pectorals, abs, and continuing downwards...

Squeak!

The shower was turned off.

The unclothed Shen Qiang took a towel from the side, wiping his hair as he walked out of the bathroom.

Looking at the tall and muscular Shen Qiang, Xiu Ju's face turned crimson, and after stepping back, she tried to appear calm as she sternly said, "Shen Qiang, you're making a mistake, cancel the tasks you posted on the Hunters platform right now."

Shen Qiang, who was drying his hair, slightly lowered his head to look at Xiu Ju, who was a good half a head shorter, and stood right in front of her.

Then he leaned his left hand against the wall next to her head, overpoweringly looking into her eyes, he said, "Do I need to remind you again? You are not my life coach."

Feeling the heat emanating from Shen Qiang's body, and seeing the dominating look in his eyes, Xiu Ju's heart raced, breathing trembling slightly, yet she stubbornly said, "Stop it, Shen Qiang, you're making a mistake."

Shen Qiang laughed, nonchalantly draping the towel he used to dry his hair over his neck, and with the index finger of his right hand, he tipped up Xiu Ju's chin, saying, "Why don't you speak such words to Bianyi? I'm sure you know that he would laugh at you for being an idiot."

Xiu Ju's eyes were filled with tension, "Shen Qiang, don't do this, you're a good person, you're not a bastard, you're not like him."

Shen Qiang casually raised an eyebrow, "If being a good person means getting bullied without fighting back, then sorry to tell you, you've got the wrong person."

Xiu Ju's face burned, her voice tinged with nervousness, "We're members of the Dragon Group, we are kind, righteous, we should win others over with virtue, benevolence, courtesy, wisdom, and trust..."

Shen Qiang snorted a laugh, "Have you ever participated in a school sports day? Let's say, during the competition, a javelin athlete throws a javelin into your chest, what will you do?"

"You pull the javelin out from your chest and tell him, 'Oh, lad, you did well, don't worry about me, keep it up, go for another try, it doesn't matter if I die, the smooth running of the sports day is more important than everything.'"

With an inquiring look at Dark Department Xiu Ju, Shen Qiang's expression turned cold as he said, "Or do you flip him the bird and tell him, 'Asshole! Good-for-nothing! You idiot are going to kill me!'"

Xiu Ju replied anxiously, "That's a different matter."

"The same matter." Lifting Xiu Ju's chin with his hand, Shen Qiang earnestly said, "There are too many people who sneak peeks at the butts of the beauties around them while spouting benevolence and morality. Understand? Like you, fantasizing about a the Monk' with eight-pack abs while accusing me of being a stud."

Pressing Xiu Ju against the wall, and looking into her eyes, Shen Qiang seriously said, "Are you wanting a man? Do you need to fantasize about a wild Monk' with eight-pack abs? Come sleep with me, I'm right here, you can touch me if you reach out your hand, but why don't you dare?"

"Because you're a hypocrite." Shen Qiang said earnestly, "All talk of benevolence, morality, regulations, and rules, you dare to do nothing but fantasize in your heart, and hence you feel, if you dare not do something, neither can others. Because you can't accept others being braver than you."

"You're talking nonsense!" Xiu Ju snapped back.

At that moment, Shen Qiang, who was lifting Xiu Ju's chin, smiled, "Now, I'm going to kiss you."

"You dare, I'll kill you!"

A silk thread appeared in Xiu Ju's hand, coiling around Shen Qiang's neck.

Feeling the murderous intent emanating from the silk thread, Shen Qiang's lips curled into a smile.

Then, his hot lips firmly kissed Xiu Ju.
