Dancheng, within a villa on the western outskirts.
This villa was specially purchased by Qu Lianbo in his early years for keeping a mistress for leisure purposes. At that ti, the purchase was made just for enjoynt at any mont. Now, due to its distant location from the downtown area, Qu Lianbo often chooses this location for plotting his affairs in secret.
At this mont, within the study of the villa, Qu Lianbo sits on the couch, his eyebrows deeply furrowed.
On the other side of Qu Lianbo, his military strategist, Wang Zhong, sits on an adjacent couch. In front of them, the man in duckbill cap and the man in sunglasses, who went to capture Zhou Ruoran during the day, are standing very respectfully.
"So you're saying, as soon as you moved against Zhou Ruoran, soone ca to her rescue, and that person was incredibly powerful?" Wang Zhong, with a serious look, asked.
The man in the duckbill cap nodded. "The woman who ca before was fierce enough; she threw a flying dagger that pierced through my brother's palm. If I hadn't had a gun at that mont, there was no way I'd have dealt with her.
After I handled that woman, another more bizarre one ca along. That person's movent techniques were like sorcery, appearing right in front of in the blink of an eye..."
After listening to the man with the duckbill cap, Wang Chong pondered for a mont. Then he waved his hand at the two n. "You two can leave now."
The man in the duckbill cap and the man in sunglasses, after bowing respectfully, then left the room.
"Wang Zhong, what are your thoughts on this matter?" After the two subordinates had left, Qu Lianbo asked Wang Zhong.
"Brother Qu, this situation might not be that simple. If I'm not mistaken, the mont you sent soone to watch him, he might have already been aware," Wang Zhong paused before speaking. "If we analyze according to the information brought back by our n, the two individuals protecting Zhou Ruoran are no ordinary people.
One has god-like abilities with the flying dagger, and the other has terrifying movent techniques. Such people can't be hired by just anyone..."
Qu Lianbo looked at Wang Zhong, who seed hesitant to speak, and beca sowhat dissatisfied. "Out with it."
Wang Zhong pondered for a mont before speaking. "I have a feeling that Ding Fan is soone we can't afford to provoke. Personally, I'd suggest killing the two brothers handling today's matter imdiately and then going directly to apologize to Ding Fan. There might still be a shred of hope that way."
Upon hearing Wang Zhong's words, Qu Lianbo scoffed. "Wang Zhong, has your head been squeezed by a door? You haven't even seen what Ding Fan looks like, and you're so scared that you want to kill our own brothers to apologize... My son was thrown into jail because of Ding Fan, and you think I can just let this go?"
Seeing Qu Lianbo get angry, Wang Zhong stopped speaking and, lighting a cigarette, he silently smoked beside him.
Qu Lianbo glanced at Wang Zhong, then stood up. "Anyway, we've already shown our hand this ti. I say just send so assassins to take out Ding Fan before he realizes what's happening."
"If you want to kill , no need to bother moving yourself..." Just as Qu Lianbo's words fell, a detached voice suddenly filled the room.
Qu Lianbo was startled, the voice seeming to be right in front of him, yet the door was firmly shut, and no one had entered just before. Where did this voice co from?
While Qu Lianbo was still dazed, Ding Fan, as if appearing out of thin air, suddenly stood there right in front of Qu Lianbo and Wang Zhong.
Ding Fan stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze filled with deadly intent, spreading a chill that made one's blood run cold.
"You... who are you? Are you a human or a ghost?" Even as a notorious criminal lord in Dancheng, Qu Lianbo was utterly shocked by the visitor's appearance.
Appearing out of nowhere, such a thing would be unbelievable if spoken of.
"Ding Fan." Ding Fan had not considered disguising his identity.
How could Ding Fan be here? i Li had inford him that Ruoran had been captured, so he had imdiately waited outside the Traffic Police Bureau. Qu Lianbo left the police station for the villa, and all this while, Ding Fan had concealed his tracks with the Invisibility Pearl, which is why Qu Lianbo had not noticed him.
"So you are Ding Fan?" Qu Lianbo's expression darkened. "You really are bold, putting my son in the hospital, and still having the guts to co here."
As Qu Lianbo spoke, he clapped his hands.
Shortly after Qu Lianbo clapped, the door was opened directly, and four gunners wielding pistols, their dark muzzles all aid at Ding Fan's head, appeared.
In Dancheng, Qu Lianbo was a figure who dealt in both the lawful and the underworld, constantly maintaining a group of gunners for his protection.
Ding Fan remained indifferent, as if he didn't see the gunn at all, looking as though he wasn't the person they were aiming at. He coldly stared at Qu Lianbo. "Where is Ruoran?"
Qu Lianbo snorted. "You should be more concerned about yourself right now."
After speaking, Qu Lianbo waved to the four gunn.
Upon receiving the instruction, the four gunn almost simultaneously pulled their triggers, filling the small room with continuous loud reports.
In Qu Lianbo's view, with four n having their guns aid at Ding Fan and firing almost at the sa ti, Ding Fan must certainly have been shot to pieces.
However, as the smoke in the room cleared and Qu Lianbo saw the situation clearly, his mouth dropped open. He montarily doubted whether his eyes were deceiving him.
Ding Fan stood there as if nothing had happened, his expression calm and arrogant, displaying not even a hint of being riddled with bullets.
At that mont, Wang Zhong was overco with fear. He had seen the world and was aware of those Ancient Martial Arts masters, capable of turning rivers upside down and stealing the sun to change the day. They were practically a group of near-superhumans.
Clearly, Ding Fan in front of him was one of those Ancient Martial Arts experts.
In the densely packed close-range fight that had just occurred, Ding Fan's body didn't have a single wound, which scientifically was inexplicable. Therefore, it could only be explained from another perspective, which was that Ding Fan was an expert in Ancient Martial Arts! Moreover, he was a top-level expert among experts!
Right then, Ding Fan's right hand rose sharply, and suddenly, sharp sounds of slicing through the air could be heard. Subsequently, the four gunn suddenly had flashes of blood on their bodies, and in just a mont, they all lay crisscrossed on the ground, evidently dead beyond doubt.
"How… how is this possible?" Qu Lianbo trembled all over in fright.
Qu Lianbo saw clearly that what Ding Fan shot out were iron nails.
Although Qu Lianbo had seen ruthless people before, never had he seen soone like Ding Fan use iron nails to kill people, and not only kill but do it so crisply and swiftly. It was truly his first ti witnessing such a thing.
Moreover, what made Qu Lianbo feel a surge of urination now was,
These four gunn were no ordinary characters. If they had been average, Qu Lianbo wouldn't have brought them along. These n were professional killers.
Eliminating four professional killers, just like the blink of an eye, then what about himself today, wasn't he just finished?
"You'd better not challenge the limits of my patience," Ding Fan said coldly. "Where is Ruoran."
"What Ruoran, I don't know…"
Qu Lianbo feigned composure and said to Ding Fan, "Tell you what, Ding Fan, no matter what, I'm the director of Dancheng's Traffic Police Bureau, if you lay a hand on , I'll see how you get by in Dancheng!"
Qu Lianbo thought by talking tough, he could make Ding Fan let him off.
However, what Qu Lianbo didn't expect was that, as soon as he issued his threat, not only did Ding Fan not consider letting him go, but on the contrary, he directly transford his palm into a blade.
The Hand Blade directly swept across. Qu Lianbo didn't even have ti to react, and his arm was instantly severed by Ding Fan.
"Ah…" At that mont, a sudden surge of pain almost made Qu Lianbo faint right there.
The pain of an amputated arm, how could it possibly be sothing ordinary people could endure.
Qu Lianbo started rolling on the ground non-stop.
"Ding Fan, if you have the ability, just kill . If you don't kill , I'll kill you soday!"
Despite his arm being chopped off, Qu Lianbo was spurred into fierce defiance, howling and shouting at Ding Fan.
Ding Fan simply didn't care about Qu Lianbo's clamor. To Ding Fan, Qu Lianbo was just an insect, and threats from an insect weren't even worth considering.
"You might choose not to tell where Ruoran is, but I assure you, you'll end up whittled down to nothing," Ding Fan said with a chilling voice, his murderous intent clear.
"I don't know…"
Whoosh… Blood splattered again, and Qu Lianbo's right leg was directly chopped off. Blood spattered across the floor, and the whole room looked as nacing as an Asura hell.
"I… I really don't know… just kill …" Qu Lianbo cried out in pain, rolling directly on the ground.
Rolling on the ground, Qu Lianbo accidentally rolled next to his subordinates who had been shot by Ding Fan using iron nails. Seeing an opportunity, he imdiately reached for the handgun.
"You fucker, dare to ss with , I'll fucking kill you!" Qu Lianbo grabbed the handgun and aid it at Ding Fan, ready to shoot.
However, just at that mont, a gunshot sounded from the side.
Qu Lianbo suddenly found it hard to breathe, and turned around in shock, only to see Wang Zhong standing behind him, both hands holding a handgun—it was clearly Wang Zhong who had fired the shot.
Until the very end, Qu Lianbo couldn't understand why Wang Zhong had shot him.
Thud, the tyrant who had swaggered through Dancheng for nearly twenty years, just fell right there.
Ding Fan too was sowhat puzzled as he looked at Wang Zhong. When Qu Lianbo had grabbed the handgun, Ding Fan had indeed seen it, and was fully confident he could catch the bullet shot by Qu Lianbo.
But in the end, it was Wang Zhong who had stepped forward.
"Senior, spare my life!" Wang Zhong said, then imdiately knelt down in front of Ding Fan.
