The three people headed downstairs.
Qin Chuan said to Zhao Xuanxuan, “Once we get the car, we will come and pick you up. You don’t have to take a taxi.”
Zhao Xuanxuan nodded. “Then we’ll go to the market together.”
The two made their schedule for the day.
Ma Qingxue didn’t say anything. Instead, she held on to Huang Huang beside Qin Chuan.
Although she had a cold personality, she still liked little animals.
The three of them walked down the step at the corridor entrance and were greeted by five burly men.
They had no idea what these burly men wanted with them.
When they were less than ten meters away, Huang Huang, in Ma Qingxue’s arms, suddenly jumped down. Its long hair stood up as it glared at the few burly men in front of her. Then, it bore its teeth bar and let out a low roar.
The three people were stunned.
Qin Chuan frowned, instantly becoming suspicious.
Usually, Huang Huang would not show such hostility to strangers.
But now, Huang Huang’s abnormal behavior could only mean something wrong.
Huang Huang’s true form was the Primordial Ancestral Dragon. It must have sensed something.
Qin Chuan gestured to Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue to stand behind him.
Zhao Xuanxuan asked, “Brother, what’s wrong?”
Qin Chuan replied honestly, “There’s something wrong with those people.”
Zhao Xuanxuan understood what he meant. “Brother, I’ll call the police immediately.”
Qin Chuan shook his head. “It’s fine, they are just a bunch of nobodies.”
With that said, Qin Chuan commanded Huang Huang, “Protect them.”
Huang Huang barked and stood between Zhao Xuanxuan and Ma Qingxue.
Qin Chuan slowly stepped forward.
When the burly men saw Qin Chuan approaching, they communicated, “The target is approaching. Make sure we take care of him quickly.”
The men covered ten meters in just a few steps and quickly surrounded Qin Chuan.
From afar, it looked like five strong beasts hunting a scraggy lamb.
“Brother, be careful!” Zhao Xuanxuan shouted.
Ma Qingxue was also very worried.
She didn’t think that Qin Chuan would be able to deal with these burly men.
As a lawyer, she knew what a citizen should do in this situation.
She chose to call the police.
She dialed the number and calmly stated her situation and location.
After hanging up, she comforted Zhao Xuanxuan, “Don’t worry, the police will be here soon. Qin Chuan will be fine.”
Then, Ma Qingxue shouted at the burly men, “I’ve already called the police.”
When the burly men heard that, they acted decisively. If they dragged on and the police arrived, things would be troublesome.
Thus, one of the burly men stretched out his hand and moved to strike Qin Chuan’s neck.
The neck was a weak spot and could easily cause one to faint.
Qin Chuan was calm when facing the incoming attack.
In his eyes, the man’s attack was very slow.
Qin Chuan shifted his feet slightly, easily dodging the attack. Then, he instantly appeared next to the man.
All the men were shocked.
Qin Chuan chuckled. He stretched out his finger and lightly flicked the man’s body.
The man’s eyes bulged as he screamed and fell to the ground. He clutched the spot where he had been flicked and moaned in agony.
His companions were puzzled.
They had all seen it just now.
He just flicked him. Does he have to act like this?
His acting was too exaggerated.
“Quickly retreat! He’s at least a first-rate martial artist.” The large man on the ground croaked.
His companions were stunned.
!!!
He’s a first-rate martial artist?
What a joke!
At this moment, Qin Chuan raised his hand once more and flicked the air.
A burly man collapsed.
He also groaned in pain and said, “He must be at least a Grandmaster to injure someone with his Qi.”
In this instance, the remaining three men were no longer calm.
They all knew what a Grandmaster was.
But this person is so young. How is he a Grandmaster?
While they were pondering, Qin Chuan flicked the air three times consecutively. The remaining three felt as though bullets had hit them. They fell to the ground, clutching their wounds and wailing in pain.
Qin Chuan’s expression was cold as he squatted down and asked one of the men, “Who sent you?”
“I won’t tell you,” the big man said seriously.
These people were all men painstakingly nurtured by the Li family. They would never betray the Li family.
Since the burly man wouldn’t tell him, Qin Chuan laughed lightly. “If you don’t want to talk, I’ll just have to find out myself.”
With that, Qin Chuan’s eyes turned turbid. The burly man in front of him trembled for a moment before his eyes lost their luster. His expression became wooden, like a zombie.
A few seconds later, Qin Chuan’s eyes returned to their original state, while the burly man in front of him seemed to have lost his soul. His face was pale, and he was curled up and shivering on the ground.
When his companions saw this scene, an inexplicable fear arose in their hearts.
They didn’t understand the consequences of offending Qin Chuan.
…
A few minutes later, the police arrived.
Presently, the five burly men seemed to have experienced something extremely terrifying. They were all curled up on the ground and shivering.
The policemen were especially surprised.
Qin Chuan and the girls sat on the steps at the entrance of the corridor.
They walked over when the police arrived.
Ma Qingxue said, “Officer, I was the one who called the police.”
The policeman surveyed Ma Qingxue and said, “Tell me what happened.”
Qin Chuan took over. “Officer, just as we were about to head out, these people surrounded us.
“They seemed spaced-out. They looked like those drug addicts on television. We were afraid of getting hurt, so we called the police.”
The policeman looked at Qin Chuan and thought that he looked familiar. He seemed to have seen him somewhere before.
“What’s your name?” the cop asked.
“Qin Chuan.”
Qin Chuan?
The policeman was surprised.
He had remembered.
Previously, the director had come to the station for this young man.
That was the director.
It was evident from there that this young man had a powerful background.
For a moment, the police officer’s attitude towards Qin Chuan changed.
Soon, the police brought the five burly men into the police car.
After the police car drove away, both Ma Qingxue and Zhao Xuanxuan heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhao Xuanxuan asked, “Brother, are these people really going through drug withdrawal?”
Qin Chuan shrugged. “I told you already? Why don’t you believe me?”
Ma Qingxue had a different opinion.
But she did not point it out.
She felt that this man beside her seemed to have many secrets.
…
Gold Sea City.
Li Zhongyang laid on the sofa looking satisfied while his secretary knelt beside him.
Suddenly, his cell phone rang.
It was the Eagle Guards.
Li Zhongyang’s eyes lit up.
It should be good news.
He picked up the phone and asked slowly, “Have you got them?”
“Second Master, I have bad news.”
Li Zhongyang’s smile froze and disappeared.
His expression was solemn. He sat up and spread his legs.
“What happened?”
“Second Master, the operation has failed.”
Li Zhongyang’s heart skipped a beat, and his anger surged.
This was the last thing he wanted to hear.
He ordered his secretary, “Go faster!”
At this moment, his other phone suddenly rang.
It was his father.
