“302!”
“It’s here!”
Li Zhongyun stood in the corridor on the third floor.
It was Qin Chuan’s apartment.
Li Zhongyun took a deep breath, raised his hand, and knocked three times.
Qin Chuan and the rest were all in the sect; there was naturally no one at home.
“Master, there is no response, why don’t…” An Eagle Guard made a charging gesture.
Li Zhongyun said with a dark face, “You guys leave first.”
Leave???
The Eagle Guards dared not disobey his orders and left.
…
Evening, the sun was setting.
The last afterglow of the setting sun faded away, bringing the night.
Qin Chuan brought Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue out of the sect. He left Huang Huang behind. It was too troublesome to bring it here and there.
They walked on the streets.
Qin Chuan originally wanted to bring them to a restaurant.
However, Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue requested to have his dark cuisine at the last minute.
Qin Chuan was stunned.
He could understand Zhao Xuanxuan’s choice but could not understand why Ma Qingxue wanted his dark cuisine too.
Since they want it, then I shall make it happen. Qin Chuan didn’t overthink it.
However, he wasn’t motivated to cook.
“I’ll make noodles!”
Qin Chuan casually offered.
Zhao Xuanxuan immediately replied, “Okay, I haven’t had it in a long time.”
Ma Qingxue felt like something was off.
But then again, Qin Chuan seems quite honest. Am I thinking too much?
She admitted to it.
While on the way, Zhao Xuanxuan even praised Qin Chuan.
“Sister-in-law, I won’t comment much on my brother’s culinary skills.
“But the noodles he makes[1] are super delicious. They’re smooth and melt in my mouth. It’s really good. ”
“…”
Her face instantly flushed red.
Zhao Xuanxuan was wide-eyed and asked curiously, “Sister-in-law, why is your face red?”
Ma Qingxue smiled awkwardly. “Is, is it?”
Zhao Xuanxuan replied honestly, “Yes! If you don’t believe me, look.”
She took a photo of Ma Qingxue.
Ma Qingxue took a glance. Her face was indeed very red.
“Maybe I’ve been cultivating for too long, and my body has some abnormal reactions!” Ma Qingxue explained casually.
Zhao Xuanxuan patted herself with her phone and disagreed, “No way! I’ve been cultivating for a long time, but my face isn’t red!”
“Perhaps our constitutions are different!”
“Is that so!” Zhao Xuanxuan thought for a moment. That could happen, she thought.
So, she stopped asking questions.
Qin Chuan, who was standing at the side, also found Ma Qingxue blushing to be strange.
He was worried that there might be a problem with her cultivation.
After all, they had just been introduced to cultivation. He was afraid that something might really crop up.
“Qingxue, are you feeling unwell? Do you need to go to the hospital?” Qin Chuan suddenly asked.
Ma Qingxue faltered for a moment. “N—no!”
“If there’s anything wrong, you have to tell me as soon as possible. Otherwise, if it gets serious, it will be too late for regrets.” Qin Chuan urged seriously.
“I’m really fine,” Ma Qingxue replied with equal seriousness.
Seeing her determined gaze, Qin Chuan didn’t continue probing.
…
Before long, the three of them arrived at the entrance of the estate.
There was a small supermarket on the estate. Qin Chuan bought a few rolls of noodles, a pack of beer, and a few bottles of fruit juice.
Ma Qingxue heaved a sigh of relief after seeing the items in his hands.
Walking into the building, Qin Chuan suddenly remembered that he had used up all the salt and soy sauce at home.
“You guys head up first. I’ll buy some salt and soy sauce.”
After speaking, Qin Chuan immediately ran out.
So, Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue headed upstairs first.
When they reached the staircase landing on the third floor, they saw an old man.
The old man was Li Zhongyun.
He had been waiting for this moment ever since he arrived.
Zhao Xuanxuan was confused about why Li Zhongyun was standing in front of her house.
She walked over and asked, “Sir, who are you looking for?”
Li Zhongyun stared at Zhao Xuanxuan and surveyed her. After confirming that she was Zhao Xuanxuan, he suddenly knelt down in front of her.
Zhao Xuanxuan was shocked, and so was Ma Qingxue.
“Sir, what are you doing?” Zhao Xuanxuan panicked and quickly went forward and helped Li Zhongyun up.
What strength she has!
Li Zhongyun was shocked.
After he stood up, he looked at Zhao Xuanxuan fearfully.
At this moment, Qin Chuan returned.
When he saw Li Zhongyun, his gaze instantly became dark, like a cold-blooded killer.
Qin Chuan raised his arm and made a grabbing motion towards the air in front of him. Li Zhongyun was lifted up into the air. His hands and feet flailed, and he looked to be in extreme agony.
Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue were startled.
“You guys go in first.” Qin Chuan solemnly spoke.
Zhao Xuanxuan had never seen Qin Chuan in such a state. She couldn’t help but feel a little scared.
This time, she did not say anything. She immediately pulled Ma Qingxue up, opened the door, and walked in.
After the door closed, Qin Chuan swung his arm inwards. Li Zhongyun flew over, and his back was tightly pressed against the wall.
“You are truly audacious.” Qin Chuan’s eyes flashed with ruthlessness, as his heart was filled with rage.
“Senior, I did not come here with bad intentions. I came to apologize, please show mercy.” Li Zhongyun gasped out.
“You want me to show mercy?” Qin Chuan coldly replied. “Think about what you have done before. Don’t you think it’s too late?”
Li Zhongyun immediately said, “I was ignorant and offended you, please forgive me.”
His attitude was extremely sincere. Even if he could not breathe properly, he forced himself to explain everything clearly.
But, Qin Chuan ignored him.
He felt that he had already been merciful by not killing all of Li Zhongyun’s family.
But now, Li Zhongyun did not learn his lesson and still dared to appear in front of his own door.
Does he want to die?!
To be honest, he really didn’t want to kill anyone.
However, in order to protect the people around him, he did not mind being an evil person.
Just as he was about to make a move, footsteps came from the stairway.
Qin Chuan took a glance, and with a thought, his divine consciousness immediately spread out like an electric net.
In an instant, everything within a five-kilometer radius appeared in his brain like a holographic projection.
On the stairs, two policemen were walking up. One was younger, while the other was more mature.
Qin Chuan knew the older police officer. He was a captain of the southern police station.
They arrived at the landing on the third floor and stepped out.
At this moment, Qin Chuan had already placed Li Zhongyun down. However, he was afraid that Li Zhongyun would say something, so he used his divine consciousness to control Li Zhongyun’s mind.
This way, he would have control over Li Zhongyun’s body.
When the captain saw Qin Chuan, he was surprised.
He didn’t expect to meet this person here. Combined with the previous few times, it seemed like they were quite fated.
The captain walked over, smiling as he nodded to Qin Chuan.
“…”
He didn’t understand why this captain was nodding at him and even smiling.
“302, it should be here.” The captain looked at the unit number.
Qin Chuan was stunned.
Why did the police come to his place?
Did Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue call the police?
But the police wouldn’t come this fast, would they!
For a moment, Qin Chuan was extremely puzzled by the arrival of these two police officers.
