As the words fell, Qin Han Chu's hand suddenly tightened.
Under the incredulous gazes of everyone, Chong Shao's head drooped powerlessly.
"Dead… dead!" Zhong Jia Er trembled in terror.
This was the young master of a prominent family in Lijiang City, and Qin Han Chu had just killed him so casually?
Qin Han Chu's expression was as indifferent as if he were crushing an ant.
Chong Shao's guards were utterly stunned!
Was this man insane?
He killed the Chong family's eldest young master just like that?
With a casual toss, Chong Shao fell to the ground like a dead dog.
"He was so arrogant and overbearing, he would have harmed more people if he lived," Qin Han Chu said calmly.
"Kill him!" The guard captain roared through gritted teeth.
Their young master had been killed under their protection, and they would have to pay with their lives.
If they killed Qin Han Chu, perhaps there was still a sliver of hope.
Following the captain's roar, all the guards drew their short swords and charged at Qin Han Chu.
A few moments later, all of Chong Shao's guards lay on the ground.
Now, with broken limbs, they were all rendered useless.
"Let's go," Qin Han Chu said to Meng Qian Qian and the other person.
"You've caused big trouble!" Meng Qian Qian said fearfully.
Qin Han Chu smiled, "This is considered big trouble? You think too highly of him."
"We have nothing to do with you, handle your own mess," Meng Qian Qian said, pulling Zhong Jia Er's hand as she prepared to leave.
Zhong Jia Er, however, stood still and said, "Qian Qian, Han Chu did this to help us, we can't abandon him."
"Did he have to kill Chong Shao to help us? That's the eldest young master of the Chong family!"
"If he's killed, the Chong family will make our entire clan pay for Chong Shao's death!"
"Do you want your parents to be killed because of him?" Meng Qian Qian shouted in fear.
"I!" Zhong Jia Er hesitated.
"If we don't cut ties with him now, we'll all die!" Meng Qian Qian stated.
Zhong Jia Er glanced at Qin Han Chu, then lowered her head and left with Meng Qian Qian.
"The engagement is broken, you can tear up the marriage certificate when we get back!"
Qin Han Chu's decisive killing of Chong Shao was precisely to test Meng Qian Qian's reaction.
Clearly, Meng Qian Qian was out.
It's not that Meng Qian Qian was a bad girl; after all, survival of the fittest was the natural law!
"Qian Qian, if he dared to act, he must have some backing," Zhong Jia Er said after they had walked a considerable distance.
"Backing? What backing could possibly stand against the Chong family?"
"The Chong family not only has a Grandmaster protecting them, but the Governor is also the Chong family's son-in-law."
"Killing Chong Shao in Lijiang City is a dead end!"
"I didn't expect him to be so impulsive!" Meng Qian Qian said urgently.
Not far from the restaurant where the incident occurred was Lijiang City's most luxurious hotel, the Lijiang Grand Hotel.
At this moment, the Chong family's high-ranking members were dining with the Governor there.
Chong Shao disliked family gatherings, which was why he came to this popular restaurant to eat.
As everyone was chatting happily, the Chong family patriarch's phone suddenly rang.
"What!"
Upon hearing that his son had been killed, the Chong family patriarch slammed the table in rage!
The Chong family patriarch's reaction startled everyone.
What was going on?
What could make someone like the Chong family patriarch lose his composure like this?
Just as everyone was about to inquire, they saw the Chong family patriarch stride out with terrifying fury.
He didn't even offer an explanation to anyone.
As soon as the Chong family patriarch left, the Governor's phone rang.
After answering the call, he finally learned what had happened.
Someone actually dared to kill the Chong family's eldest young master in Lijiang City!
"Chong Wen Bin has been killed," the Governor said grimly, hanging up the phone.
"What?"
"Who is so audacious as to dare kill the direct descendant of my Chong family!"
"Whoever it is, they will pay for Wen Bin's death!"
The Governor and the others did not leave.
They believed the Chong family patriarch could eliminate the killer!
At this time, Qin Han Chu was leisurely walking through the streets of Lijiang City.
As for the death of Chong Wen Bin, it wasn't worth his concern at all.
Ten minutes later, Qin Han Chu arrived at a square.
The square was a bit desolate at the moment, with only a few elderly people practicing martial arts nearby.
Just then, the sound of hurried footsteps approached.
Dozens of Chong family guards, wielding sharp blades and exuding a terrifying aura, rushed over.
Seeing this scene, the elderly people practicing martial arts quickly left.
Qin Han Chu held a bottle of orange juice and paid no attention to the surrounding guards.
Soon, Qin Han Chu was surrounded.
The crowd parted, and the Chong family patriarch emerged, his eyes blazing with fury.
"You killed my son!"
Qin Han Chu finished the last sip of his orange juice, screwed on the cap, and casually tossed the bottle into a trash can ten meters away.
"Yes, I killed him," Qin Han Chu nodded with a smile.
"Do you know..."
Before the Chong family patriarch could finish his words, Qin Han Chu interrupted him, saying, "If you roll back now, your Chong family can continue to survive in Lijiang City. If you want revenge for that scoundrel, you will be pushing the entire Chong family into a fiery pit!"
"You are excellent, actually disregarding the Chong family!"
"I await you destroying the Chong family!"
"Kill him!"
How could the Chong family patriarch care about Qin Han Chu's threat?
At his command, the surrounding guards simultaneously charged at Qin Han Chu.
These guards were the true elite of the Chong family, with five of them being Ninth Rank martial artists.
Qin Han Chu, too lazy to engage them directly, casually waved his hand, and a cloud of white mist dispersed in all directions.
As the white mist spread, all the Chong family guards clutched their throats, falling to the ground with contorted expressions.
Under the stunned gaze of the Chong family patriarch, his guards' faces turned red, and then they suffocated and died.
Just as the Chong family patriarch was about to curse, he felt his breathing becoming difficult.
"Save it to tell the King of Hell!"
Dropping these words, Qin Han Chu walked away into the distance.
The Chong family patriarch stared at Qin Han Chu's retreating back in terror, then collapsed to the ground in pain, his breath ceasing.
He had never imagined his life would end in such a manner.
At the Lijiang Grand Hotel, everyone was waiting for the outcome of the matter.
When they heard the Governor's phone ring again, all eyes turned to him.
The Governor knew that everyone wanted to know the result, so he pressed the speakerphone.
"Sir, something terrible has happened!"
"The Chong family patriarch and dozens of Chong family guards are all dead!"
"Swoosh!"
The Chong family members stood up in outrage.
"Who is that person? How dare they act with such malicious intent!"
"Are they trying to start a war with my Chong family!"
Hearing the furious roars of the Chong family members, the person on the phone said, "That person is just a young man. He killed the Chong family members using poison."
"Find his location, and we will rush over immediately!" the Governor stated grimly.
After hanging up the phone, everyone left the Lijiang Grand Hotel together.
At this time, Qin Han Chu had already arrived at the seaside.
He knew that the Chong family members would arrive soon, so he was not in a hurry to find a hotel to rest.
Resolving the matter completely was the only way to ensure no one would disturb his rest.
"Whoosh..."
"Whoosh..."
The sound of waves crashing against the rocks was very soothing.
Just then, Qin Han Chu saw a white figure in the distance walking towards the sea.
