My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife - Chapter 646

Chapter 646: Xue Lin Encountered a Pengci

 

(TL: you can google pengci for more details, but it’s basically someone faking injury to get money)

The next day, Xiaoyun Mu got up early. Perhaps because Shi Lin smashed the TV and other electrical appliances last night, she felt sorry and got up a bit earlier on purpose, hoping to behave well.

“Mother-in-law, why did you get up so early?” Qingfeng Li found Xiaoyun Mu being busy cleaning the living room when he got up.

“Qingfeng, I just want to tidy up the living room.” Xiaoyun Mu felt a little embarrassed. She had cleaned up everything that was broken last night. The glass fragments in the living room, such as broken TV, tea cups and so on, were very likely to injure feet.

Once she finished cleaning, Xiaoyun Mu washed her hands and went into kitchen to prepare breakfast.

At first Qingfeng Li wanted to do it himself so as to let her have a rest. But his mother-in-law disagreed and insisted on cooking, asking Qingfeng Li to get some sleep again.

Xiaoyun Mu was a good mother-in-law in fact. Every time she came to Qingfeng Li’s place, she always cooked for them, unlike some mothers-in-law who took themselves as Queens and waited to be served at their sons-in-law’s homes.

Could Qingfeng Li fall asleep? Of course not, he was also too embarrassed to go to sleep since his mother-in-law was cooking.

Qingfeng Li went into kitchen to help his mother-in-law with washing and cutting vegetables. Compared with one person, obviously two did cooking more quickly. Before long, they had prepared four dishes and two soups, which seemed a bit more than usual, because there were more people.

When breakfast was ready, Xue Lin had gotten up, and so had Hai Lin who slept on the couch in the living room. So everyone except for Shi Lin.

In fact, Shi Lin woke up long ago, but was too embarrassed to come out. After all, it was him who was so drunk that he smashed lots of things at his son-in-law’s place. He felt himself look terrible when he sobered up.

Xiaoyun Mu knew what Shi Lin was thinking about, so she went into his room and asked him to have breakfast. But Shi Lin refused hard, no one could get him to come out unless they were kidnapping him.

Qingfeng Li and other people had to have breakfast first and left Shi Lin alone in his room. Shi Lin was lured by the good smell of the dishes from the living room, but still felt embarrassed and did not want to get out of the room to face his son-in-law.

After breakfast, Hai Lin went to school while Qingfeng Li was going to buy some electrical appliances with Xue Lin.

Shi Lin did not get out of his room until Qingfeng Li and Xue Lin left the villa. He asked, “Honey, have little Xue and son-in-law left?”

Xiaoyun Mu complained, “They’ve all gone, now you know the harm of drinking? How many times I’ve told you not to drink? You just don’t listen to me. Look at what you have done to our son-in-law’s house?”

Shi Lin gave an embarrassed smile, and said, “Let’s go as well.”

Xiaoyun Mu did not want to go in fact, but Shi Lin urged her to leave soon because he was afraid of facing his son-in-law and regarded last night as the most shameful day in his life.

Fortunately, Qingfeng Li was not narrow-minded and did not argue with Shi Lin. If it were someone else who dared to smash the things in his house, Qingfeng Li would teach him how to behave well by beating him right away.

Xue Lin went to to the garage and drove out the BMW. She had Qingfeng Li sit in the passenger seat, then took him to the electrical appliances wholesale mall.

Located at the crossing of the railway station and the bus station, the sixty-year-old mall was the largest electrical appliances wholesale mall. There were all kinds of electrical appliances in the mall, and you could find anything you wanted.

Wherever you were, railway station were always the most chaotic place around the country. There were commonly seen Pengci (fake-traffic-accident-fraud), theft and robbery, as well as prostitutes in hair salons and the ones handing out leaflets. In a word, this place was the paradise of bad guys.

Suddenly, a middle-aged woman ran out of the other side of the road and directly fell down in front of Xue Lin’s car when she had just droven close to the railway station.

“Ouch, it’s killing me. You’re bad at driving. You’ve hit me.” The middle-aged woman cried while covering her knees with her hands.

The voice of the middle-aged woman was so loud that the people around the railway station all gathered here, and some people even surrounded Xue Lin’s car and did not let her go, asking her to come out of the car and compensate the victim.

“Honey, I’ve hit a person, what shall I do?” said Xue Lin, whose charming face paled.

Looking at the crowd outside, Qingfeng Li said, “Let’s get off and check it out.”

When they got out of their car, the middle-aged woman cried more loudly because she found out that Xue Lin was a wealthy person who wore luxury brand clothes and drove a BMW. Aha, getting a good target to rip off today, she felt very happy.

“Ma’am, are you all right?” Xue Lin was very kind-hearted, so she approached her and asked with concern when she saw the middle-aged woman crying miserably on the ground.

“Aha, this woman, beautiful though, seemed very easy to fool, she got hooked already.” The middle-aged woman was so delighted that she almost wanted to laugh loudly. But since she intended to blackmail Xue Lin, she had to hide her laughter and put on a painful expression.

“Young lady, your car hit me and broke off my leg. How unlucky I am today! I just went out to buy groceries for my husband, but was hit by you.” The middle-aged woman said, and kept crying miserably.

Xue Li paled and felt a little shamed. She thought she drove well, and she had no idea how she hit the woman.

The people around saw the woman crying so miserably that they started to comment.

“This beauty, you’re pretty indeed, but you’ve hit someone. Hurry and compensate her.”

“Yeah, haven’t you seen how miserable the woman is?”

“Exactly, exactly, hurry to pay her and let her go see doctors. It’d be terrible if her broken off bones causes internal bleeding.”

The crowd around were all blaming Xue Li and asking her to compensate the victim.

Xue Lin frowned and said slightly: “Ma’am, how much do you need? I can pay you.”

The fish got hooked, and the middle-aged woman felt extremely happy. She said, “You’ve hit and broken my leg, resulting in arterial bleeding. I don’t need much, just pay me one million.”

One million?

Xue Lin frowned. She thought she could pay several hundred Yuan to solve the issue, but the middle-aged ma’am ahead her, beyond her expectation, claimed for one million, which was a bit more.

“Beautiful young lady, do you refuse to compensate me? You hit and broke off my leg. How can you be so cruel to refuse to pay me?” The middle-aged woman cried more loudly and complained to Xue Lin.

At the sight of the crying middle-aged woman, the crowd became angrier and asked Xue Lin to compensate the woman.

Obviously, it was the first time that Xue Lin had encountered such a situation, which was completely different from doing business. Those people were not only rude but also troublesome.

What’s the f*ck, how dare you blackmail my wife and extort her to pay money. Qingfeng Li got angry with a trace of cold light flashing in his eyes. Xue Lin was pure in mind, so she had no idea about the mess around the railway station or the dark side of people’s hearts. But Qingfeng Li knew very well, and the middle-aged woman was exactly the professional to do pengci, who cheated and blackmailed innocent persons.

“Hey, ma’am, you said your leg was broken off with arterial bleeding. But where’s the blood? How can I not see it?” Qingfeng Li sarcastically said with a cold smile.

Chapter 647: Be Cruel to Bad Guys

 

When hearing Qingfeng Li’s words, the crowd around turned and looked at the middle-aged woman finding that there was no blood on her leg for sure. Didn’t she claim that her leg was hit and broken off? Why was there no blood at all?

At this moment, some people had begun to doubt the middle-aged woman. The railway station was such a messy place, could the woman be doing pengci?

At the sight of the crowd’s attitudes, a hint of panic came into the middle-aged woman’s eyes, she took a hard stare at Qingfeng Li and blamed all of this on him. If he did not point out that there was no blood on her leg, she would not be so passive now.

The middle-aged woman blinked and gave a look at a middle-aged man with short hair in the crowd. The man nodded, then suddenly rushed out of the crowd and fell upon the woman.

“Honey, your leg is bleeding. What a cruel driver. The driver meant to kill you.” When falling upon the woman, the middle-aged man with short hair took out a small bag of blood from his pocket and directly poured it on her leg while nobody noticed. All of a sudden, there was a lot of blood appearing on the woman’s leg.

The surrounding people all showed their sympathy in their eyes with a feeling that the woman was truly unfortunate, when they saw the blood on her leg.

Although the middle-aged man with short hair did it sneakily and no one noticed him, Qingfeng Li had found out the blood the man used actually came from a chicken, not human beings.

“Pay us money. You’ve hit and broke off my wife’s leg. Hurry and compensate us.” Cried the middle-aged man, with a gloomy face.

It had to be said that these guys who did pengci were not only professional, but also rampant. They dared to commit blackmail in broad daylight.

Qingfeng Li gave a cold smile and walked to the middle-aged man, asking, “I have a question, if a broken leg is worth one million Yuan, then how much money we should pay to kill your wife?:

“Young man, you’re lucky, you’ve just broken off my wife’s one leg. If you hit her to death, you must pay ten millions.”

“Take the liberty of asking again, if we can pay ten millions to kill your wife, then how much can I pay to beat you to death?”

“You’re stupid, of course you must pay ten million to kill me, the same as that of my wife.”

“Very good, there’re twenty millions in my bank card which is enough to kill you both.” Qingfeng Li smiled slightly with a sarcastic look.

Vroom!

Qingfeng Li turned back and got into the car, stepping on accelerator and turning the steering wheel, inching towards the middle-aged woman and man.

“Stop, stop, young man, stop the car.” Seeing Qingfeng Li driving the car to run onto them, the middle-aged man, who trembled with fear, shouted at once.

“You just said paying ten millions could compensate each kill, so I’m going to kill you both and pay you twenty millions which you can spend slowly.” Qingfeng Li smiled cruelly and continued to drive the car towards the middle-aged woman and man.

The middle-aged woman who was lying on the ground became dumbfounded. She thought that Qingfeng Li agreed to pay her, but beyond her expectation, the money the young man was ready to pay was for killing them, not for breaking a leg.

Looking at the approaching car, the middle-aged woman’s face paled. She just wanted to grab some money by means of pengci rather than being killed. If she really died, getting so much money would make no sense.

Whoosh!

The middle-aged woman rose suddenly from the ground, running away with long strides, who seemed not injured in fact. As for the broken leg, it turned out to be so flexible that it was not hurt at all.

“F*ck, they just committed pengci. No wonder they run so fast, the leg was actually not broken.”

“Right, look at the blood on the ground, it’s not human blood at all, it’s chicken blood.”

“What a shame! It’s the young man who is smart enough to scare away the bad guys with the threat of hitting them to death.”

The people around were commenting and getting angry.

Having found the trick was brought to the light, the middle-aged man turned back in the hope of running away as well. But Qingfeng Li grabbed the man’s collar and said coldly, “Where are you going?”

“Let me go.” The middle-aged man paled and shouted.

Qingfeng Li sneered and said, “Let you go? You’ve done pengci to lots of people at this railway station, right? Today I’ll teach you a lesson since others dare not.”

Ka!

Qingfeng Li raised his right foot and kicked it towards the middle-aged man, ending up with breaking the man’s left leg.

“AH, my leg!” The man screamed. He did not pretend this time, and it was true that his leg had been broken by Qingfeng Li.

“This a punishment to you, and I’ll break off both your legs if you continue to do pengci.” Qingfeng Li smiled coldly, and threw the screaming man to the road side.

“Honey, let’s go and buy electrical appliances.” Qingfeng Li gave a slight smile, then walked towards the electrical appliances mall with Xue Lin.

The paled middle-aged man behind them was staring at Qingfeng Li with resentment in his eyes. The reason why he dared to do pengci here was that he knew someone who was associated with the gangsters. Otherwise, he would not have done pengci here.

“Young man, how dare you break off my leg and stop me from making money? I won’t let you get away with this.” The middle-aged man took out his mobile and dialed, with his face full of grudge.

“Brother Green Hair, I was beaten today when I did pengci. You must avenge me.” The middle-aged man spoke over the phone.

“What, someone dare to stop us from making money. Where’re you now, I send my men to beat him up.” Green Hair shouted over the phone. In fact, the middle-aged man and woman mainly did pengci and a part of what they had earned would be handed in to Green Hair due to their partnership.

Qingfeng Li beat the middle-aged man and exposed their pengci business, which led to their loss of money, therefore they got very angry.

“Brother Green Hair, I’m at the electrical appliances wholesale mall next to the railway station.” The middle-aged man said.

“You just wait, I’m coming with my men right away.” Green Hair hung up the phone once he said that, heading to the electrical appliances wholesale mall together with a group of people.

At that time, Qingfeng Li and Xue Lin had entered the electrical appliances wholesale mall, so they had no idea about the upcoming revenge from the middle-aged man. But even if he knew what to happen, he would not care about it. There were too many bad guys in the society, and correspondingly, there always had to be someone to teach them a lesson.

The ten-floor electrical appliances wholesale mall was a huge place occupying over one thousand acres with all kinds of electrical appliances such as TV sets, washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners and air purifiers as well as cell phones, and you name it.

Certainly, there were also many people here. When entering the mall, Qingfeng Li and Xue Lin had found it so crowded that people walked shoulder-to-shoulder and the mall was jam-packed with a crowd of people.

“Honey, there’re so many people here.” Xue Lin seldom came here, and it happened to be the weekend today, as a result of which there were a particularly large number of people, so she felt a little uncomfortable.

“It’s okay. You can walk slowly.” Qingfeng Li held one of Xue Lin’s small hand and went up to the second floor.

The second floor of the electrical appliances wholesale mall mainly sold TV sets, most of which were LCD TV, cable TV, ranging from 19 inches to 50 inches. And correspondingly there were various TV brands including Hisense, Changhong, Skyworth, TCL, Konka, LeTV, Amoi and so on. For a while, Qingfeng Li and Xue Lin completely had no idea about which brand to buy, as they got dazzled by the bewildering brands.

Chapter 648: 10% of My Strength

 

Qingfeng Li and Xue Lin were stopped by a young woman once they just went up to the second floor of the TV stores.

“Handsome guy, pretty girl, come here, have a look at our LeTV, which is very popular now.” The young woman looked quite fashionable, dressing in a mini suit skirt with pale powder makeup and lipstick on her face.

At the sight of Qingfeng Li, the young woman started to flirt him with enthusiasm, as if she had not been in a relationship with a man for several months.

Letv?

Qingfeng Li raised one of his eyebrows. He had heard about this TV brand, which had been very popular recently due to an overwhelming coverage of its advertisements, and also had played a great role in the field of smart TV.

The Skyworth dealer next door was a middle-aged fat man. Having noticed Qingfeng Li was about to be pulled away by the young woman, he became worried and said right away, “Handsome guy, have a look at my Skyworth TV, it’s a big brand with top quality.”

“Brother, come to see my Hisense TV, it’s of good quality as well.” The owner of another store said. He was a young man in his twenties, who used to be a soldier and currently ran a TV store after retirement.

These people were all TV dealers selling TV sets of various brands, and they wanted Qingfeng Li to buy the TV of their own brand because they could make money by selling a TV to him.

Having seen the people from those stores were so enthusiastic, Xue Lin could not bear with the situation for a while, so she asked, “Honey, which TV brand do you think we should buy?”

Qingfeng Li got bewildered as well because of too many TV brands here. When he was going to select one, there were tens of gangsters rushing up from the first floor.

The gangsters, who all had colorful hair styles and tattoos, dressed in fancy clothes, with wooden sticks in their hands, looking aggressive in a threatening manner.

In front of the gang, there stood two men, one with green hair and studs, the other with short hair and being middle-aged, who was the one that did pengci to Xue Lin just now.

With a cane in his hand and a plaster cast on his leg, the middle-aged man with short hair, who entirely depended on his cane, was a cripple now.

“Brother Green Hair, he is the one who broke off my leg just now.” The middle-aged man with short hair pointed at Qingfeng Li, and said ferociously. In terms of age, the man could be as old as Green Hair’s dad, so it was so disgusting that the man still called him as Brother Green Hair. In the real world, strength and cruelty were the most important elements of a Big Brother, regardless of age and seniority. Therefore the Big Brother was the one being strongest and most ferocious.

Green Hair touched his ear stud, and shouted to the surrounding people who intended to buy TV sets, “I’m going to beat up some guy, get the hell away if you don’t want to die.”

The crowd around were scared and scattered right away when hearing Green Hair’s arrogant words and seeing the tens of gangsters next to him. No matter where people were, they were most afraid of gangsters, not mention to giving a hand which was nonsense.

Even the owners of the LeTV and Skyworth stores were both frightened so much that they turned back to their own places, let alone the people around. Since they did business at the electrical appliances wholesale mall, they surely knew about Green Hair, who was the well-known bully here.

Everyone behaved as cowards but the boss of Hisense TV. The young man who used to be a soldier stepped out and shouted, “This is the mall. What’re you doing here?”

“What’re we doing? Obviously, we’re beating a man. You can f*cking get lost.” Green Hair said disdainfully with a cigarette in his mouth.

What’s the fuck, at this electrical appliances wholesale mall next to the railway station, everyone knew his name of Green Hair and all the store owners showed great politeness when encountering him. Where had the punk jumped out? How dare he give me trouble?

The owner of Hisense TV store gave a cold smile, and said,” Green Hair, this gentleman wants to buy a TV here, so he’s my customer. If you dare to give him trouble, you have to ask for my permission first.”

“Kid, you look too rude, let brother teach you how to behave well.” Green Hair smiled brutally, raising the stick in his hand and swung it at the owner.

As a retired soldier, the owner was not bad at fighting, so he instantly held Green Hair’s wooden stick and lifted a leg to kick him back for a couple of steps.

Since Green Hair was beaten back in front of all the people present, he had been not able to maintain his expression and begun to get very angry.

“Guys, step forward and just beat this kid. While you’re at it, beat that fellow too.” Green Hair shouted, pointing at the Hisense owner and Qingfeng Li.

Upon hearing their big brother’s order, the tens of gangsters raised their sticks and swung them at the owner and Qingfeng Li.

Even though the owner used to be a soldier and did well in fighting that he was competent to deal with three or four persons, he was unable to fight against a group of people and before long he had been beaten up by seven or eight gangsters.

Qingfeng Li stood in the same place, and did not move, until one gangster swung a stick at him. Qingfeng Li grabbed the stick directly from the opponent’s hand.

“Eh, where’s my stick?” Apparently, the gangster did not see how his stick disappeared, so he asked confusedly.

“You stick is in my hand.” Qingfeng Li held the stick, said indifferently.

The gangster went forward hoping to get the stick back from Qingfeng Li’s hand while Qingfeng Li swung the stick at his body, which was as fast as a flash of lightning. The gangster was hit and passed out.

“He’s tough. Everybody go together!” Several gangsters blew their sticks to Qingfeng Li at the same time.

Qingfeng Li reached out his hand to pull Xue Lin behind himself, and then smacked every gangsters’ head in front of him. All of a sudden, the punks fell down onto the ground unconsciously.

“What a group of weak chickens, not challenging at all.” Glancing at the fainted several gangsters, Qingfeng Li said in disdain.

For Qingfeng Li at the present, even kings were unable to defeat him, let alone a group of social gangsters.

Having noticed that the owner of Hisense TV was beaten up by lots of punks, Qingfeng Li frowned and decided to give the owner a hand because he was the only one among the people around the mall who stood out to help Qingfeng Li when Green Hair came over.

“Hey, dude, are you all right?” Asked Qingfeng Li.

A hint of surprise came into the owner’s eyes, and he responded, ” Fine. What about the gangsters attacking you?”

“They’re lying on the ground.” Qingfeng Li pointed at the several punks lying behind him, said indifferently.

“F*ck, they’re all defeated by you?” At the sight of the unconscious guys, the owner’s facial expression changed, with a trace of shock in his eyes.

As a former soldier, the owner’s physique was still very strong, but he had not expected that today he could encounter a master who knocked down several punks in an instant.

“Dude, you’re skilled.” The owner gave Qingfeng Li a thumbs up, said admiringly.

“They’re so weak, not interested at all. I merely exerted 10% of my strength.” Qingfeng Li nodded, with a depressed look.

Chapter 649: The Mysterious Beauty

 

What Qingfeng Li said was a truth. Because he was afraid of beating those punks to death, he merely exerted one tenth of his strength, which was due to the fact that he had worked hard to control his body. If he gave full play of all his strength, it was certain that those guys would have been killed.

There was increasingly more and more murderous intent inside his body, which he could not keep on accumulating. Otherwise it would be detrimental to his health, ending with him losing his mind and becoming a demon sooner or later.

Considering that the gentleman was able to beat several people unconcious with only 10% of his strength, could it be deduced that he was also able to beat up one hundred men with 100% of his strength?

“Brother, you’re really skilled, almost on par with the Soldier King.” The owner gave Qingfeng Li a thumbs up, with an admiring look.

As a former soldier, he admired the King of Soldiers the most, as the Soldier King was so awesome that he was able to defeat tens of people. But after encountering Qingfeng Li today, the owner had completely changed his mind and felt that Qingfeng Li was better than Soldier King because the former could still stay calm and relaxed after a fight.

Qingfeng Li gave a slight smile without saying anything, and drew a circle with the stick in his hand, sweeping out the people around. All of a sudden, the punks next to the owner fell down onto the ground unconsciously.

Qingfeng Li’s current enemies were all the kings and masters with skills in ancient martial arts. Therefore he actually had no interest at all in those punks. Unfortunately, there were always stupid guys that kept on giving him trouble, which made him quite depressed.

Having witnessed that the tens of gangsters were all knocked down onto the ground, Green Hair paled with horror in his eyes. He was the head of the gangsters and he was not a fool though, because he had realized that Qingfeng Li was a master and he had gotten in trouble with Qingfeng Li.

“Sir, it’s my fault today. I’m getting away at once. Are you ok with that?” Green Hair frowned and said to Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li sort of wanted to laugh, since he had beaten up all of Green Hair’s men, how could it not be possible to let Green Hair go?

“Want to go? Leave both of your legs first.” Qingfeng Li smiled slightly with a domineering look.

Green Hair paled. As a gangster, he knew the meaning of leaving legs was to break off them.

“Young man, I advise you not to be so rampant. Indeed, you’re a good at fighting. But do you know who my boss is?”

“Who? Speak it out.”

“Just tell you, I get connected with Ming Tie of Iron Fist Sect, to whom I hand in a large part of earnings, you’d better think carefully before you act.”

Iron Fist Sect, Ming Tie?

Qingfeng Li frowned with a flash of chilling light in his eyes. He knew well about Iron Fist Sect which was a Sect of ancient martial artists. He had once beat the second son of the martial arts school principal the last time when he went on the blind date with Xiaoyue Zhang.

Qingfeng Li recalled that Ying Zhou, the apprentice of the Iron Fist Sect, was present at that time and was beaten up later. He had never thought he would encounter Iron Fist Sect again now, and it seemed that he could not get rid of this Sect with ancient martial arts.

“Green Hair, if you think I’m afraid of you just because you’re connected with Ming Tie of Iron Fist Sect, you’re completely wrong.” Qingfeng Li gave a chilling smile, instantly kicking Green Hair to the ground.

“Brother, I’m as blind as a bat, please let me go.” Green Hair looked scared and whispered, begging for mercy.

It was hard to imagine that the arrogant punk with green hair just now had turned to be a weak chick.

Even if Green Hair was begging for mercy, Qingfeng Li did not want to let the punk go because if he was not strong enough, then he would definitely have been beaten badly by Green Hair. Besides, Green Hair was the big bully in this neighborhood that it was very likely that he had assaulted many persons. Qingfeng Li decided to enforce justice today.

Ka ka!

Qingfeng Li directly knocked over Green Hair and broke off both of the punk’s legs with his right foot so that the bad guy was not able to do harm to others any longer.

As for the middle-aged man who did pengci (fake-traffic-accident-fraud), it was a sure thing that Qingfeng Li did not want to let him go, as a result of which he broke off the man’s two legs as well.

“Brother, you’re really awesome, and you do right by punishing the bad guys like this.” The owner of the Hisense TV store spat and said.

“Many thanks for your help just now.” Qingfeng Li thanked him with a smile.

To be honest, even if those gangsters had come all together to fight against him at the same time, Qingfeng would still do not care about that. Instead, he was moved by the fact that the Hisense owner stood out unexpectedly. There were so many people around just now, but this owner was the only one who stepped out and helped Qingfeng Li when others were scared to run away.

Pa, pa, pa….

Suddenly, someone applauded in the back. A lady in ancient costume went into the store.

The lady was very pretty, not more than 25 years old, with an oval face and willow-leaf eyebrows. Her white and soft skin was like the finest jade, and her eyes were as bright as the stars. She was so beautiful that she could even compete with Xue Lin.

The lady was wearing an ancient dress that perfectly profiled her soft chest and round butt, by which the Hisense owner was stunned like a fool.

Even if Qingfeng Li felt surprised at such a beauty who was so amazed.

“Wolf King is indeed Wolf King, dealing with those ants with merely 10% of your strength.” The lady in the ancient costume said calmly with a tone of compliment.

It was obvious that why the lady in ancient costume had said so was because she heard the dialogue between Qingfeng Li and the owner of the Hisense TV store.

“Who are you?” Qingfeng Li frowned with a touch of alert in his eyes, asked.

Although the lady in ancient costume ahead looked delicate, Qingfeng Li had felt a hint of strong strength from her, which was extremely hidden but still so powerful that it even made Qingfeng Li a bit nervous.

Qingfeng Li even doubted that the lady in ancient costume was stronger than Black Impermanence, as he had not been so frightened even when fighting against Black Impermanence.

“Don’t be afraid. The reason that brought me to Eastern Sea City was just to have a look at you.” The lady in ancient costume smiled slightly but with a subtle tone of arrogance that was inherent.

“I don’t know you, and you’ve seen me now. You can leave.” Qingfeng Li shook his head, not willing to talk with the lady any more, as he felt a trace of horrifying strength from her, which made him sort of worried.

“There’re too many people in the mall. Go to the Eastern Sea Bridge at midnight, I’ll see you then.”

“I’m not familiar with you, why should I go?”

“Wolf King, you had beaten up Green Hair, the footman of Iron Fist Sect, so you’d better go if you don’t want to be on the receiving end of revenge.” The lady in the ancient costume said with a mysterious smile and turned away.

Iron Fist Sect, hum, last time I had already defeated their apprentice Ying Zhou. How could I be afraid of them? Qingfeng Li gave a cold smile and did not care about what she said.

“Dude, I’d like a fifty-inch Hisense TV.” Regardless of the disappearing lady in ancient costume, Qingfeng Li turned back and said.

“No problem.” The owner nodded and selected a TV that had clear pictures with top quality for Qingfeng Li in person.

After buying the TV, Qingfeng Li brought Xue Lin to buy a few more furniture items, including tables and tea cups, and then he drove back to the villa with Xue Lin.

As for the midnight appointment with the lady in ancient costume, Qingfeng Li had already put it aside long ago.

Chapter 650: Xianzhi Qin’s Recruitment Offer

 

It was already evening when Qingfeng Li and Xue Lin bought all the things for the living room and completed the installation. As a result, it was impossible for them to go to the company since it was too late to work.

As the dinner was just for both of them, it was relatively simple with two bowls of preserved eggs and lean pork porridge plus two dishes. After dinner, they both watched TV for a while, then went to sleep. Having been busy with shopping for a long day today, neither of them would like to say any words, because they were so tired that they just wanted to have a good rest.

Lying on the bed, Qingfeng Li could not fall asleep as he kept recalling the mysterious woman he met in the daytime, who had impressed him with the strong strength.

“Well, I’d better go and see the lady in that ancient costume.” Qingfeng Li got dressed, then left the villa under the cover of darkness.

He did not intend to meet with the lady in ancient costume at first, but somehow Qingfeng Li had a feeling that the lady was sort of odd. He also wanted to make clear about the ins and outs of the Iron Fist Sect, so he finally decided to see her.

It was twelve o’clock at midnight.

Qingfeng Li drove the BMW to the Eastern Sea Bridge, which was the landmark of Eastern Sea City with a history of over one hundred years.

It was late night, and also a very cold day in winter. There were no pedestrians on the bridge, except for one woman standing on the bridge.

The woman was very pretty. Her oval face was like a snow-white pebble, which was still shining even in the dark night, while her willow-leaf eyebrows looked a little graceful and charming. Her big chest and round butt were so tempting. She was still entirely covered by the ancient costume though.

The lady in ancient costume stood on the bridge as if she had come from the ancient times, with an aura like a fairy.

At the sight that Qingfeng Li had arrived, the lady in ancient costume said:” Wolf King, you’re on time. Do you know why I ask you to come over?”

Qingfeng Li shook his head when hearing the words of the lady in ancient costume. Now he did not even know her name, not alone what she meant.

“Who are you and what do you want?” Qingfeng Li gave a slight smile, deciding to collect the woman’s information first as a pre-emptive action.

“I’m Young Lady Xianzhi Qin of Fiery Emperor Palace, and I come here to recruit you into Fiery Emperor Palace.” The lady in ancient costume said in an ordinary tone, but it sounded as if an arrogant peacock looking down upon others.

Fiery Emperor Palace?

Qingfeng Li frowned, as this was the second time he heard about this name. The first time was when he was at the Eastern Sea Battle Arena. An old man in grey clothes, who claimed to be a man of the Fiery Emperor Palace, wanted to recruit Qingfeng Li but he said no. It was unexpected that this time, the lady of Fiery Emperor Palace dropped by in person.

“Sorry, I like freedom, and I don’t like to join others’ Sect.” Qingfeng Li smiled briefly, and directly refused Xianzhi Qin.

“Don’t hurry to say no, Wolf King, Fiery Emperor Palace is the top class force of ancient martial arts, more powerful than the Shaolin Temple and Wudang Mountain. Therefore you’ll be entitled to explore the ancient ruins if you join us.” Xianzhi Qing continued with red slightly pouty lips.

As could be seen from the name, Fiery Emperor Palace, founded by the Fiery Emperor and the Yellow Emperor, had been existing since human beings originated, with a longer history than that of the Buddhist Shaolin Temple, which could be traced back to prehistorical times.

When he heard Xianzhi Qin’s words, Qingfeng Li was dumbfounded for a second with a trace of shock in his eyes. Both Shaolin and Wudang were regarded as the holy places of martial arts, how could Fiery Emperor Palace be even more powerful than the holy places of martial arts?

Qingfeng Li had been living overseas previously, and just returned to Huaxia for only a short time, so he did not know Huaxia very well. Even so, he still had heard of the Fiery Emperor and Yellow Emperor, who were the ancestors of Huaxia people, with a history of five thousand years.

“Wolf King, you must know about the Dragon King since both of you are kings.”

“Yes, I know him. The Dragon King is awesome.”

“Well, I’m telling you, even the Dragon King is not qualified to join Fiery Emperor Palace. Last month, the old Dragon King of Godly Dragon Mountain sent Dragon King to Fiery Emperor Palace with someone’s recommendation, and now he is responsible for sweeping the floor.” Xianzhi Qin smoothed her forehead hair, and said mildly.

What? Dragon King went to Fiery Emperor Palace to sweep the floor?

Qingfeng Li paled, and he was not shocked, but horrified.

Even though Dragon King was defeated by Qingfeng Li, he was still the King of Dragon Continent, with the strength of the pinnacle tier at Level SSS, who was very strong and powerful. Apart from that, Dragon King was also in charge of the Upper Class Chief’s safety. How came such a person was currently sweeping the floor at Fiery Emperor Palace?

Having noticed Qingfeng Li’s shock and horror, Xianzhi Qin had a feeling of mingled pride and annoyance, since the man had not yet agree to join in.

“Wolf King, to tell you the truth, our Fiery Emperor Palace had been existing since human beings originated, going through countless dynasties, even Emperor Shihuangdi and Emperor Wu of Han had ever resorted to us. As the Fiery Emperor Palace’s power is beyond your imagination, joining us is completely beneficial to you.” Xianzhi Qin continued, but what she had said was even more shocking.

Pressing the shock in his mind, Qingfeng Li asked, “By joining Fiery Emperor Palace, what benefits can I get?

Benefits? Xianzhi Qin smiled and said slightly: “Wolf King, joining Fiery Emperor Palace, is the best benefit you can expect.”

Qingfeng Li was sort of unhappy with Xianzhi Qin’s reply. Dragon King joined Fiery Emperor Palace and turned to sweep the floor. He would not do it if they asked him to be a janitor as well.

“Miss Qin, even if Fiery Emperor Palace is powerful enough, I am not interested now, so I won’t join in.” Qingfeng Li shook his head, and refused again.

Having been refused twice in a row, a trace of discontent came into Xinzhi Qin’s eyes, and she said, “Wolf King, do you think you’re very strong? I can tell you, the sect master of Iron Fist Sect is a Higher Heaven level master. Now that you’ve displeased Iron Fist Sect, there’ll only be a dead end ahead of you, unless you join us.”

“Lady, you don’t need to worry about that. It’s time to go.” Qingfeng Li gave a faint smile, turned and left the bridge.

The reason why Qingfeng Li came over tonight was that he was a bit interested in Fiery Emperor Palace, but he immediately lost the interest when he heard that Dragon King was responsible for sweeping the floor there.

In fact, Qingfeng Li knew that Fiery Emperor Palace was strong, otherwise Dragon King would not be a janitor there. But Qingfeng Li had his own dignity, so he was not willing to do sweeping at Fiery Emperor Palace.

With sa lightly changed facial expression, Xianzhi Qin stared at Qingfeng Li’s back, narrowing her eyes, lost in thought. She originally believed that Qingfeng Li would surely agree to join in as long as she explained to him about the glory of Fiery Emperor Palace, but unexpectedly he refused at the end.

After he left the bridge and went across two blocks, Qingfeng Li suddenly stopped, because there were two men ahead getting in the way.

Of the two, one was Ying Zhou, while the other was a young man in his twenties, who had dusky skin, wore an outfit of martial arts, and had a strong trace of power that was terrifying.

“Young Sect Master, he is Qingfeng Li, the one who beat me previously, and broke off Green Hair’s leg yesterday.” Pointing at Qingfeng Li, Ying Zhou said to the young man by his side respectfully.

Ying Zhou always treated others in an arrogant manner, but when facing the young man, he turned to behave very well like an obedient cat.
