Missing your smile

Chapter 90 Sun Mu Escaped

"Heh, with your strength, you want me to surrender to you?"

"You're not even fit to be my dog!"

Qin Hui chuckled coldly, his mind already planning how to deliver a killing blow.

Qin Hui and Sun Mu had reached a point of no return; Sun Mu absolutely could not leave here alive today.

"Good, very good, you will regret today's decision."

With that, Sun Mu lunged at Qin Hui. He knew that words were useless now; only by defeating Qin Hui could everything be resolved.

Bang bang bang!

The two engaged in another battle within the private room.

However, this time Qin Hui held a distinct advantage. In the previous fight, Qin Hui had already deciphered Sun Mu's fighting habits, making it easy for him to counter.

Qin Hui's combat style was always about fighting to improve, allowing him to break through his own limits rapidly during battles.

Crack!

Qin Hui's fist landed on Sun Mu's ribs, the sound of bone fracturing causing Sun Mu to grit his teeth in pain.

It was important to note that although Sun Mu was also a Triple Layer martial artist, he had always been a pampered young master of a prominent family, severely lacking in actual combat experience.

While he could hold his ground against Qin Hui for a while, as time wore on, he was no match for Qin Hui.

Despite holding the advantage, Qin Hui had also sustained several wounds.

In battles between opponents of the same cultivation level, the fighting style often devolved into trading blows and exchanging injuries.

Sun Mu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His body was covered in wounds inflicted by Qin Hui. Sun Mu had never suffered such a loss in his life.

"Qin Hui, I'll remember you. But do you really think you've won for sure?"

Sun Mu laughed ferociously and quickly retrieved a pill from his pocket.

Upon swallowing the pill, Sun Mu's vital energy began to circulate rapidly, his strength surging. There were signs of him breaking through to the Fourth Layer of the Martial Realm.

Qin Hui was taken aback and immediately unleashed a palm strike.

He knew that the descendants of these prominent families always had contingency plans, otherwise, they would perish too easily.

If Sun Mu were to break through to the Fourth Layer of the Martial Realm, Qin Hui would be in a precarious situation.

Seeing Qin Hui attack again, Sun Mu channeled all his strength into his fist and met the blow head-on.

A dull thud echoed, causing the entire "Supreme" private room to shake. Qin Hui was forced to take several steps back.

"Although consuming this pill will leave significant side effects, it's worth it to kill you."

Sun Mu's emotions became volatile. Like a starved wolf, he lunged at Qin Hui.

Soon, the two were locked in a fierce struggle within the private room.

Creak. Just as Sun Mu was about to gain the upper hand and suppress Qin Hui, the private room door was pushed open by Chen Jiaxue.

Upon seeing Chen Jiaxue, Sun Mu's eyes shone with a brilliant light. He knew he had found his escape route today.

"Seeking death!"

Qin Hui's fist shot towards Sun Mu's temple.

But Sun Mu reacted with incredible speed, disengaging from Qin Hui's grasp in a mere second and lunging towards Chen Jiaxue.

Seeing Sun Mu's move, Qin Hui's heart pounded with urgency. If Sister Xue fell into Sun Mu's hands, the situation would become dire for him.

Seeing Sun Mu charge towards her, Chen Jiaxue did not panic as expected. Instead, she raised the pistol in her hand and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

A bullet flew directly towards Sun Mu.

Sun Mu froze on the spot. In normal circumstances, with his speed, he could easily evade such an attack. But he had severely underestimated Chen Jiaxue, and at such close range, he had no way to dodge.

The bullet sliced through the air and pierced Sun Mu's shoulder. Sun Mu let out a cry of pain.

"You wait for me."

Despite being severely wounded, Sun Mu did not give up resisting. He was from the Sun family in Yanjing, and they possessed numerous life-saving trump cards.

Just as Qin Hui was about to close in and subdue Sun Mu, Sun Mu suddenly threw out a cloud of black poisonous smoke.

Smelling the acrid odor, Qin Hui had no choice but to turn and pull Sister Xue out of the private room.

When the poisonous smoke dissipated, Sun Mu had completely vanished from the club.

"Damn it, he actually got away."

Qin Hui was filled with regret. Once Sun Mu escaped, it would be impossible for Qin Hui to find him.

Although this was Jiangnan Province, Qin Hui was keenly aware of Yanjing's immense influence and power. With their protection, Qin Hui would be unable to take his life.

After all, some families in Yanjing were too powerful; even the authorities could not do anything to them, only restrain them.

Moreover, Sun Mu was certain that Qin Hui would not seek help from the authorities. Since Qin Hui was also a martial artist, he had to resolve this himself.

"Xiao Hui, I... Am I useless? Letting him get away."

Chen Jiaxue said with some self-reproach.

"Sister Xue, it's not your fault. This guy won't be able to hide for long."

Qin Hui comforted her.

However, today's events had served as a harsh wake-up call for Qin Hui. He hadn't expected the retaliation to come so quickly. If he had foreseen this, they wouldn't be in this situation today.

Looking at the club, which was in ruins from the fight, Qin Hui's lips curved into a wry smile.

"Sister Xue, it seems your club is going to close down."

"Hmph, it's all your fault. Are you happy now?"

Chen Jiaxue patted Qin Hui's chest, a hint of helplessness in her voice.

She hadn't wanted to get involved, but some things were beyond her control.

"In that case, you should sell this club. It will be safer if you stay by my side from now on."

Qin Hui said after some thought. Although Sun Mu wouldn't do anything rash in the short term after this setback, Qin Hui had to consider Sister Xue's safety. This had already happened once today, and Qin Hui would not allow it to happen again.

Most importantly, with Sister Xue by his side, Qin Hui could focus on his own affairs without being distracted.

Furthermore, over this period, Qin Hui had gathered all the medicinal ingredients he needed for his cultivation and was just waiting for his strength to break through.

If his strength couldn't advance, it would be very difficult for Qin Hui to deal with Sun Mu the next time they met.

When Sun Mu reappeared, he would undoubtedly have powerful experts by his side, as the Sun family backed him, and they would not give up on dealing with Qin Hui.

The only things Qin Hui currently worried about were his own Rejuvenation Hall and the Jiang Corporation. The Jiang Corporation was vast, so Qin Hui wasn't concerned, and with Qin Hui overseeing the Rejuvenation Hall, he wasn't afraid either.

In this regard, Qin Hui was actually looking forward to Sun Mu's next move. Because next time, Qin Hui would definitely not let Sun Mu escape.

After settling everything, Qin Hui breathed a sigh of relief and sent Sister Xue back to his Rejuvenation Hall overnight.

If he sent Sister Xue directly home, Qin Hui would definitely not be at ease. The Rejuvenation Hall was staffed by his own people, so even if something happened, Qin Hui could rush there immediately.

The Rejuvenation Hall was spacious, and a room would be enough for Sister Xue to rest. However, to avoid any trouble, Qin Hui had Sister Xue stay in his office.

Qin Hui's office was large, spanning a hundred square meters. The front part was just a small desk, while the back housed a large bedroom.

Normally, when Qin Hui rested, he would retire to his own room. It wasn't that Qin Hui didn't want Sister Xue to have her own room, but rather that there were many things about her that could not be seen by outsiders.

Even if outsiders wouldn't reveal it, Qin Hui didn't want to attract any unnecessary trouble.
