Chapter 248: Han Qi’s Overture
After finishing their meal, Fang Yu and Han Qi walked out of Nandu Hotel together and got into a stretched Rolls-Royce.
Only a driver was in the car, with no one else.
“Just say what you need to say,” Fang Yu said.
Han Qi looked at Fang Yu in front of him, smiled and said, “I assume Mr. Fang still remembers Chen Luo whom we met at Baichuan Mountain?”
Chen Luo?
Fang Yu remembered him, that person had a faint ancient aura about him, which caught his attention at the time.
“Yes, I remember,” Fang Yu answered.
“You’ve only met him once, so you probably don’t know much about him. Let me give you a detailed introduction about this person,” Han Qi said while waving his paper fan.
“Chen Luo’s growth journey can be described as miraculous.”
“Until he was fifteen, Chen Luo was very ordinary in both martial arts talent and emotional intelligence.”
“But after a car accident at fifteen, Chen Luo completely changed.”
“At fifteen, he was still only a fifth-stage innate warrior. But after the car accident, he seemed to suddenly become enlightened, his martial arts cultivation progressed rapidly, and it only took him two years to advance from innate to master realm.”
“From master to martial lord, it took only three more years.”
“Now at twenty-six, he’s preparing to go into seclusion to attempt breaking through to the saint realm.”
At this point, Han Qi paused, looked at Fang Yu, and asked, “Mr. Fang, do you think such a growth trajectory is normal?”
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
If what Han Qi said was true, Chen Luo was quite similar to Xiao Chen.
According to Xia Xiaoying’s intelligence, Xiao Chen also suddenly became enlightened at age eight, turning into a martial arts genius with rapid progress.
This situation certainly couldn’t be considered normal.
“There’s one more thing, when Chen Luo was first taken to the hospital after that car accident, the doctors declared him dead. But afterward… Chen Luo mysteriously woke up,” Han Qi said slowly. “After waking up, besides his improvement in martial arts talent, Chen Luo’s entire personality changed dramatically, suddenly becoming very mature, often saying surprising things that were completely inconsistent with his age.”
“Unfortunately, I didn’t know Chen Luo at that time, otherwise I would have been able to clearly observe the changes in him before and after the accident.”
Fang Yu looked at Han Qi and asked, “After saying so much, what are you trying to express?”
“I’m just introducing Chen Luo to Mr. Fang, nothing special,” Han Qi smiled.
“I’m not familiar with him, there’s no point in telling me all this,” Fang Yu said.
“Of course there is a point, didn’t I just tell you that you have a potential enemy?” Han Qi said, a cold glint passing through his eyes.
“Are you saying Chen Luo is this enemy?” Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and asked.
Han Qi chuckled but didn’t answer directly.
“I remember you had a good relationship with him, have you fallen out now?” Fang Yu leaned back and asked.
“I merely admired his handsome face, our private relationship wasn’t that good,” Han Qi said frankly.
“I don’t recall having any interaction with Chen Luo,” Fang Yu said.
“But you took away what he wanted,” Han Qi said, closing his fan.
“Oh, you mean that Spirit Spring?” Fang Yu said with sudden realization.
“Not the Spirit Spring, but what’s beneath it,” Han Qi squinted at Fang Yu, trying to gauge his reaction.
But unfortunately, Fang Yu showed no particular reaction at all.
“From what I know, after returning from Baichuan Mountain, Chen Luo has been extremely agitated, and recently he’s preparing to go into seclusion, determined to break through to the saint realm.”
“His target is quite obvious, I think,” Han Qi said.
“Alright, I understand,” Fang Yu stretched and said, “If he wants to find me, let him come. I’ll be in Nandu anyway.”
With that, Fang Yu was about to get out of the car.
Han Qi’s expression changed slightly and said, “Mr. Fang, do you intend to face Chen Luo alone?”
“No, to be precise, to face the entire Chen family!”
When Han Qi mentioned the Chen family, Fang Yu suddenly remembered Chen Yi from the Chen family, who had promised to transfer the ownership rights of the Tiandou Rock to Qin Yimo on the island.
Recently, he heard from Qin Yimo that this guy seemed to be going back on his word.
So, Fang Yu turned to ask Han Qi, “Does the Chen family have someone called Chen Yi?”
Han Qi was startled, then nodded.
“Who is this person? What’s his status in the Chen family?” Fang Yu asked again.
“He is Chen Luo’s elder brother, the most mediocre person of the Chen family’s fourth generation, not worth mentioning,” Han Qi said disdainfully.
“That’s fine then,” Fang Yu nodded.
“Mr. Fang, I don’t think you fully understand the Chen family’s strength,” Han Qi frowned seeing Fang Yu’s indifferent attitude. “Among the martial arts families in the Huaibei region, the three most powerful families with recognized strength and heritage are the Zheng family, Chen family, and Han family.”
“The Zheng family has the strongest foundation, with four martial lord level elders, but recently they seem to have encountered a major incident… However, the news has been blocked, and no one knows what happened, so we won’t discuss that for now.”
“Then there are the Chen family and our Han family. Our two families are quite similar in strength and family heritage.”
“Mr. Fang, I’ve witnessed your skills firsthand and know how strong you are. However, if nothing unexpected happens, Chen Luo will soon break through to the martial saint realm. You should understand how powerful a martial saint is. The chances of you succeeding alone against a martial saint and the top three martial arts family in Huaibei behind him are almost zero,” Han Qi said with sharp eyes.
Actually, Fang Yu had already seen through Han Qi’s purpose.
He simply wanted to form an alliance to jointly oppose Chen Luo and the Chen family.
But what Fang Yu was least interested in was getting involved in these so-called family feuds.
“The reason I’m telling Mr. Fang so much today is that I hope you can understand the situation clearly and choose suitable allies.”
“Our Han family, as one of the three great families of Huaibei, is definitely a quality ally. If you’re willing to cooperate with us, we can certainly provide you with the maximum help and benefits.”
Han Qi finally expressed his thoughts.
Fang Yu shook his head, about to speak.
But at this moment, he sensed something unusual.
The unusual feeling came from the mark he left on Liu Liansha.
He had been too absorbed in the feast earlier and had forgotten about Liu Liansha’s existence.
Fang Yu frowned and immediately activated that mark.
Then, he could see what Liu Liansha was seeing.
The bespectacled gentleman Chu Yun was now looking at Liu Liansha with a lecherous smile.
And Liu Liansha seemed to be controlled by some force, unable to move at all.
“Indeed not an ordinary person,” Fang Yu thought.
At the same time, he opened the car door and got out.
“Let’s forget about cooperation, I have something to attend to,” Fang Yu said to Han Qi.
Looking at Fang Yu’s departing figure, a cold light flashed in Han Qi’s eyes.
Most of what he had just said was the true situation.
Among the three great families in Huaibei, currently the Zheng family dominated, while the Chen family and Han family were on par.
But looking at the current development situation of each family, the Han family had fallen behind.
The Chen family had Chen Luo, a prodigy who was currently sprinting towards the saint realm, and would soon leave the Han family far behind.
If Chen Luo could really break through to the martial saint realm, then the Chen family’s status might directly surpass the Zheng family.
Regarding this point, the Han family had sent people to negotiate with the Zheng family.
But the Zheng family, with their extremely strong foundation and arrogance, didn’t take the Han family and Chen family seriously at all, let alone have any intention of cooperating with the Han family.
And Han Qi, after witnessing Fang Yu’s strength at Baichuan Mountain, had already wanted to recruit him.
When he encountered Fang Yu here today, he didn’t hesitate to engage in conversation.
However, Fang Yu’s reaction made him very displeased.
He had said almost everything he could, yet Fang Yu still maintained an indifferent attitude and clearly rejected his cooperation request.
For Han Qi, this even felt somewhat humiliating.
“Since you’re so confident, we’ll see. I believe you’ll come back to find me soon,” Han Qi’s eyes flashed with coldness as he signaled the driver in front to drive.
…
Underground parking garage.
Liu Liansha was now leaning against the passenger seat, breathing heavily, but unable to move her body at all.
She hadn’t expected that the seemingly ordinary ring in Chu Yun’s hand would possess such powerful capabilities!
Initially, she had planned to use forceful means to control Chu Yun.
But unexpectedly, just as she was about to act, a beam of light from Chu Yun’s ring entered her body.
After this beam of light entered her body, Liu Liansha completely lost control of this body.
Chu Yun leaned close to Liu Liansha’s perfect and alluring face, taking a deep breath.
“You smell so good…”
Looking at Liu Liansha, Chu Yun’s eyes held only desire.
Such a devastatingly beautiful woman, even for him who had deflowered countless women, was a first encounter.
More importantly, this woman was still a virgin.
