Li Chuan looked at the phone in his hand, then glanced at Gou Wang in front of him, frowning.
He didn't expect Xiang Zhili to be so cowardly; the call was already connected, yet he didn't dare to speak.
Even saying a harsh word or two would have been better!
This made him feel like his punch had landed in the air.
Could it be that this is also a strategy?
"You're even thinking about calling the police?" Li Chuan looked at Gou Wang before him, with so confusion in his eyes. He couldn't understand the actions of these Seven Kills Sect people. They were already involved in shady business, and now they wanted to use the police against him? Were they out of their minds?
"I... I know nothing!" Gou Wang opted to play dead.
Actually, he was also frightened because Xiang Zhili, that guy, was ruthless. Anyone who betrayed him t a bad end.
If he betrayed him and Xiang Zhili found out afterwards, his entire family would be dood!
"Mr. Li, give half an hour, and I'll make sure they tell the truth!" Yang Shan said coldly.
Li Chuan shook his head: "No need for that, just kill them and clean it up."
With that, Li Chuan casually tossed the phone aside and turned back to the hotel.
The truth, for him now, was not important at all.
After all, by tomorrow night, he would et the real players.
Moreover, Xiang Zhili would resort to such base and shaless tactics, clearly indicating he was a coward who couldn't stir up much trouble.
As he entered the hotel lobby and reached out to press the elevator button!
"Thud!"
The elevator door suddenly opened on its own.
Then out walked an old man with a smoking pipe in his hand, wearing a long black robe.
The man's hair and beard were grizzled, but his eyes were full of spirit. In these days, such old-fashioned smokers were rare.
Upon seeing this old man, Li Chuan once again felt that dangerous sensation!
This feeling was the sa as when he faced the Donkey Taoist and the Dried Persimmon Scorpion!
Clearly, this was an expert!
In the next mont, the two exchanged glances in the air, and the old man smiled faintly at Li Chuan, while taking a puff from his old smoking pipe as he walked out of the elevator.
"Where did this expert co from?"
In that instant, the Lingxi True Qi within Li Chuan's body surged wildly.
That sense of danger made his scalp tingle.
However, he detected no True Qi fluctuations from the other person, so he probably wasn't a cultivator.
But the Qi and Blood Power was exceptionally strong, completely unlike what an old man should possess!
"Chang'an is indeed Chang'an, an ancient city with thousands of years of history; it should be the most historic city in the Great Xia, so eting so extraordinary people or aristocratic families here is normal."
Li Chuan smoked a few cigarettes in the corridor and then returned to his room.
He typically didn't smoke much, but the dangerous vibe sensed upon checking into the hotel made him feel on edge, so he bought a thirty-yuan pack of Grand View Garden from the hotel lobby's service staff.
Upon returning to his room, he saw Yan Ruyu and Mu Weishuang sitting on the sofa, holding their phones as if they were ordering takeout.
This couldn't exactly label them as gluttons.
Although they ordered so delicacies earlier, they were drugged by Gou Wang's n with I Love a Stick of Wood, causing the aphrodisiac's effects to enhance their tabolism drastically. Later, although Li Chuan neutralized the drug with acupuncture, their stomachs soon growled with hunger…
After all, being affected by an aphrodisiac indeed consus physical strength significantly.
"Don't order takeout; let's stroll around Huimin Street and grab sothing to eat."
Li Chuan originally intended to rest in the hotel, but after the earlier events, he no longer wanted to stay there. Since they were in the ancient capital of Chang'an, they might as well go out for a walk.
Yan Ruyu's eyes lit up: "Sure! There are indeed many delicious things on Huimin Street, and I never had the chance to properly feast when I was in Chang'an before."
Although the headquarters of the Seven Kills Sect was in Chang'an, she was a disciple of the sect, and her training kept her at headquarters without any chance to venture out. Once she graduated, she imdiately started performing tasks outside, making this her first return to Chang'an since graduation.
As they stepped out.
It was drizzling over Chang'an City at night.
Mu Weishuang held an umbrella walking beside Li Chuan.
Yan Ruyu carried her umbrella.
Upon reaching Huimin Street, they found there weren't many people.
Partly due to the weather, and also because it wasn't tourist season.
Mu Weishuang and Yan Ruyu, blessed with striking looks and figures, garnered many second glances as they walked.
Especially from those single n, who envied Li Chuan imnsely.
These days, it's all about unequal distribution, so have too much and others nothing at all.
Li Chuan paid no attention to the gazes around, although Yan Ruyi and Mu Weishuang were quite beautiful, his harem was strong enough that they didn't stand out too much in terms of beauty and figure.
If others knew the caliber of his harem, they might cough up blood in envy.
Walking down the ancient city's streets, Li Chuan thought of the Dragon Vein on Nine-Headed Mountain.
Even a third-tier city like Jiangzhou City possessed a Dragon Vein, so naturally, this millennium-old capital would have one too.
But upon a closer feel, he found the Dragon Vein's energy in this ancient city to be present but very faint.
Perhaps, historically, Chang'an brimd with dragon energy, but now, it's no longer as it once was.
This could be the flow of fortune for a city.
Just like people.
If a common person's fortune is in its pri, they could accrue wealth in a year that others couldn't in multiple lifetis.
As for Li Chuan, he was now a cultivator.
The distinctive feature of those who cultivate is to defy the heavens, alter fate, and vie for destiny with Heaven and Earth!
However, the path of mortals is andering, and the way of immortals is treacherous; this path is destined to be long and winding.
"Get a at bun."
As Li Chuan walked, he was sensing the Dragon Vein's energy beneath the ancient city, and this peculiar feeling he didn't want to interrupt, so he said to Mu Weishuang by his side.
Mu Weishuang: "Oh, okay. Senior Sister, I'll hold the umbrella for the Sect Leader, you go buy it, and get a bottle of Ice Peak Soda."
But just as she finished speaking, a mocking voice suddenly ca from behind: "Kid, you don't deserve these two beauties. If you're smart, you'd get lost now!"
Yan Ruyu froze upon hearing this, then turned around to look.
Mu Weishuang also turned, frowning as she looked back. As a cold and proud girl with long black hair, she hated this kind of pretentious voice the most. It was typical of a rich second-generation kid who thought too highly of himself.
Indeed, a young man with slicked hair and powdered face with two lackeys in tow ca walking towards Li Chuan.
Seeing Yan Ruyu and Mu Weishuang both looking his way, the young man gave a self-assud handso and charming smile: "Ladies, which of you is this guy's girlfriend?"
