When system cheat becomes rampant!

Chapter 163: Chapter 143: The Criminal of the Elite School

"You have the strength of someone at the initial stage of Meridian Opening?" Lu Hong asked in shock.

"No, I just used a bit of cunning and just happened to find his weakness," Xiang Beifei didn't elaborate.

If Zhu Xinjue fought Xiang Beifei in the real world, it would be basically impossible for Xiang Beifei to defeat Zhu Xinjue, not even a slight chance of victory.

But Zhu Xinjue's mistake was his arrogance.

He thought that by dragging the enemy into his system space, he could control the absolute home-field advantage and had the opponent completely under control.

This had indeed been proven true in every fight with others in the past.

What he didn't expect was that Xiang Beifei's least fear was entering other people's system space.

As long as he relied on Xiaohei to flash between reality and system space, that was enough to pin Zhu Xinjue to the ground and rub him in the dirt!

Zhu Xinjue created a system world, but this world became the key to Xiang Beifei defeating Zhu Xinjue. Without this system world, Xiang Beifei would have had to flee.

"That's still very strong!"

Lu Hong marvelled, completely at a loss as to how Xiang Beifei managed it—a late-stage Qi-Controlling Awakener capturing a criminal at the initial stage of Meridian Opening was unheard of!

This child always managed to surprise him at every turn.

"Uncle Lu, you'd better secure him with some powerful confinement tool. His system can create space, and he may hide in the world he's created," Xiang Beifei said.

The frostbite on Xiang Beifei's hands was gradually healing. Elder Luo's sunflower seeds were always of excellent quality, especially restorative, and had that addictive crunch. Every time Elder Luo saw him, he would generously stuff a handful into his hands, and then another before he left, as if he felt Xiang Beifei was too thin and needed to bulk up on sunflower seeds.

Now, his pockets were filled with seeds.

"Don't worry, after the Wan Qiu prison break incident last time, I specifically requested a batch of new tools from the Jiuzhou Alliance Law Enforcement Headquarters, made by SSR Awakeners, strong enough to hold SR-level individuals," Lu Hong said.

With these handcuffs, even if Zhu Xinjue had the ability to escape through space, he wouldn't be able to use it.

"Beifei, are you alright?" Lu Zhiwei also ran over, asking anxiously.

"I'm fine, it's taken care of," Xiang Beifei responded.

"I knew you could do it!"

Lu Zhiwei was initially stunned but quickly became relieved: "I'm glad you're okay."

She didn't even know how she got out just now, she had wanted to fight that man with Xiang Beifei, but Xiang Beifei didn't seem to need her help.

"By the way, this person's system is clearly SR-level, but he's only at the initial stage of Meridian Opening. He might be a student from an elite school. Do you recognize him?" Xiang Beifei asked.

Lu Zhiwei pulled off the mask from Zhu Xinjue's face and scrutinized him, suddenly exclaiming in surprise, "I think I've seen this person before."

"From Liangzhou University?"

"No, let me think... he should be from Yanzhou University. I saw him at last year's elite competition among the nine universities. His name seems to be Zhu something. He was brilliant on the competition field and defeated a new SR student from our university!"

Lu Zhiwei recalled, then cried out, "This highway cruiser killer is actually a student from Yanzhou University, and he's in my grade!"

Lu Hong asked with a serious expression, "Xiao Wei, are you sure?"

"Yes, I couldn't possibly make a mistake," Lu Zhiwei said more and more certainly, and also increasingly shocked, "He's actually the highway cruiser killer?"

"Is it that surprising?" Xiang Beifei inquired.

"It's not that, with such a high talent, why would he commit crimes!" Lu Zhiwei said angrily.

"Talent and one's character are not necessarily connected," Xiang Beifei commented.

Many people possess great talent, but in order to complete tasks more easily, they take desperate risks and do things that are reprehensible. People from Yanzhou committing crimes in their Liangzhou territory, and wearing a mask, was clearly to conceal his identity.

If it weren't for Xiang Beifei, nobody would have linked this person to Yanzhou University.

Lu Hong firmly secured the unconscious Zhu Xinjue and held him by his collar like a sack of rice.

As a Meridian Opening Awakener, Lu Hong was very strong and easily lifted a person.

"It's not uncommon to see Awakeners who kill to complete system tasks, but I didn't expect one would be an elite SR-level still attending school," Lu Hong said gravely as he walked outside.

"No matter who it is, he should pay the price. His life is over," Lu Zhiwei said, clenching her fists.

They quickly returned to the highway, and Zhu Xinjue was stuffed into a police car. They still needed to deal with the scene, carry out damage control, and collect evidence.

Liu Gui had come to, Xiao Ma's system ability could heal wounds, and he had treated him. He was now sitting inside a police car, looking very dejected.

When he lifted his head and saw Xiang Beifei, and looked around, he asked in a low voice, "What about her?"

Xiang Beifei shook his head.

People who died in the world created by Zhu Xinjue's system had truly died, becoming a part of that world, and their cultivation was completely seized by Zhu Xinjue. Xiang Beifei could not bring them back.

"I thought she wouldn't do that to me," Liu Gui said dispiritedly.

Being betrayed by the person he trusted most was extremely painful.

"At least now you know what kind of person she was," Xiang Beifei remarked.

"She wasn't like this before, maybe she was too scared. Being an N-level Awakener, she always felt inferior. As an R-level Awakener, it's easier for me to make a living in society, so I wanted to protect her well. But I didn't expect..." Liu Gui's voice trailed off, exhausted.
