“Damn it!”
Upon waking, both of them immediately felt they were bound, and they knew clearly what fate awaited them.
“Awake.” Qin Hanchu sat cross-legged on the carpet. Although his eyes were closed, he was fully aware of their every move.
“How did you know we were coming?”
The main objective of the two assassins wasn't to get an answer. They merely wanted to use the conversation as an opportunity to retrieve the blades they had prepared and escape.
But soon, their expressions turned grim.
This was because all their equipment had been taken by Qin Hanchu.
“Who sent you? I’ll only ask this once. Think carefully about whether you want to answer.” Qin Hanchu’s eyes remained closed.
“The mission was issued by a third party. We don’t know who the employer is.”
Qin Hanchu opened his eyes and continued, “How much was the bounty?”
“One hundred million.”
Upon hearing this answer, Qin Hanchu chuckled, “They really weren’t stingy. It seems you two were just the first wave.”
“If I were you, I’d be hurrying to leave this place right now,” one of the bodyguards said.
Qin Hanchu stood up and walked over to them. He first patted their backs, then untied their ropes. “You can go.”
The two assassins were a bit stunned by Qin Hanchu’s actions. “You’re letting us go?”
“Yes, you can go,” Qin Hanchu said, looking at them calmly. “I advise you not to make a move, because neither of you is my match.”
The two exchanged glances and finally gave up on the idea of attacking.
They slowly retreated to the door, then opened it and ran out.
Meanwhile, a sniper was lying in a vantage point, observing Qin Hanchu’s villa.
Under his gaze, the two assassins rushed out of the villa.
“What’s going on? Have they already completed the contract?”
Just as the sniper was confused, the two assassins suddenly fell to the ground.
“What happened? How did they die? They don’t have any gunshot wounds.” The sniper observed the two assassins through his scope, but he couldn't find any wounds on their bodies.
Since these two came to kill him, how could Qin Hanchu let them go?
If he killed them inside the villa, he would have to deal with the bodies.
That was why Qin Hanchu had let them leave.
His seemingly gentle pat on their backs earlier had actually damaged their heart meridians.
As they ran, their damaged blood vessels exploded, and naturally, they couldn’t survive.
Qin Hanchu wasn’t afraid of the law enforcement officers finding him, because they wouldn't be able to find any evidence proving he killed them.
Returning to the carpet, Qin Hanchu resumed his cultivation.
He knew many people would come to kill him, but he didn’t take it seriously.
Anyone who dared to enter would be killed!
There were likely snipers waiting for him outside right now, so walking out would be even more dangerous.
Two hours later, Qin Hanchu’s doorbell rang.
It was the law enforcement officers.
Even though the two assassins died outside, they had run out of Qin Hanchu’s villa, so it was normal for them to come knocking.
Qin Hanchu opened the door and asked, “What is it?”
“Two people ran out of your villa this morning. Do you know them?” the captain of the law enforcement asked.
“I’ve been in my room playing games. I haven’t seen anyone.”
“Could it be a break-in?”
“I need to check if anything is missing.”
With that, Qin Hanchu returned to the living room.
Four law enforcement officers entered the villa and quietly observed Qin Hanchu.
“Did you find anything missing?” the captain of the law enforcement asked.
Qin Hanchu shook his head. “No. Actually, there isn’t anything valuable in here worth stealing.”
“Did you really not see those two people?” the captain of the law enforcement asked.
“No. If you hadn’t told me, I wouldn’t even have known someone had entered my villa.”
The captain of the law enforcement said, “These two died shortly after leaving your villa.”
Qin Hanchu appeared very shocked. “How did they die?”
“It’s not clear yet. We’ll come back to ask for your assistance in the investigation if necessary.” The captain of the law enforcement said.
Qin Hanchu nodded. “Of course.”
After the law enforcement officers left, Qin Hanchu continued his cultivation.
He wasn't fazed by the arrival of the law enforcement officers; he didn't even consider their visit a big deal.
Compared to them, the bounty hunters were more of a headache.
He needed to advance his realm to Grandmaster first.
With protective qi, he wouldn’t have to fear injury even when facing sniper rifles.
It was daytime, and the enemy wouldn’t openly barge in. He could take this opportunity to strengthen himself.
…
“Boss, do you think he’s telling the truth?” a team member asked the captain of the law enforcement as they got into the police car.
The captain of the law enforcement shook his head. “I think he’s lying.”
Just then, one of the team member’s phones rang.
After hanging up, the team member looked at the captain of the law enforcement. “The forensic report is out. Both died from cardiovascular rupture.”
The captain of the law enforcement frowned. “A heart condition?”
“No, but the forensic doctor doesn’t know why this happened.” The team member shook his head and continued, “They had no external injuries, not even signs of impact from significant force.”
“This is definitely not an accident. How could two people die of unexplained cardiovascular rupture at the same time?”
As soon as the captain of the law enforcement finished speaking, his phone rang.
He picked up the phone, and a woman’s voice came through. “Captain, the deceased’s information has been found. They were bounty killers.”
“Have you checked the villa owner’s information?” the captain of the law enforcement asked.
“Checked. He’s the new owner of Jinhan Entertainment Company,” the woman said in a low voice. “Tai Li was likely killed by him. This person is definitely not ordinary.”
“Detailed information?”
“I’ll send it to your phone.”
A short while later, Ye Changqing’s profile was sent to the captain of the law enforcement’s phone.
After reviewing Ye Changqing’s information, the captain of the law enforcement’s brow furrowed.
“How did a fallen rich heir become the boss of Jinhan? And why would these two killers go after him?” The captain of the law enforcement was completely bewildered.
“Captain, what do we do now?” a team member asked.
The captain of the law enforcement pondered and said, “Let’s keep an eye on him here and see his next move.”
Qin Hanchu had unintentionally achieved a strategic advantage. With these law enforcement officers keeping watch, the bounty killers around wouldn’t dare to make a move.
Although these law enforcement officers were no match for them, the consequences of killing them would be severe.
Under the “protection” of the law enforcement officers, Qin Hanchu spent the night safely.
He had now reached the peak of Grandmaster and officially began to strive for the Grandmaster realm.
at seven in the afternoon, crackling sounds came from within Qin Hanchu’s body.
With the help of the Qi-Nourishing Pill, he had finally been promoted to Grandmaster.
Upon becoming a Grandmaster, his qi force could transform into formidable qi.
With the protection of the formidable qi shield, Qin Hanchu could directly confront firearms.
Even if these killers charged at him all at once, it would be difficult to injure Qin Hanchu.
