"Stay behind me!"
In the underground parking lot, Song Qiao shouted, then his figure flashed. Under the glint of his saber, in just a few movements, more than twenty people were all lying on the ground.
It didn't seem like Li Bingqing sent them.
Song Qiao breathed a sigh of relief after subduing these people.
Since his internal true qi was awakened, it had been growing stronger daily. These ordinary people posed no threat to him now.
This scene stunned Deng Yihan.
"You, how can you be so powerful?"
She exclaimed, then realized why Song Qiao had been so confident in the office earlier, not fearing Li Bingqing at all. It turned out he was a master of ancient martial arts.
But before she could thank him, more than a dozen people rushed into the underground parking lot from outside.
Although fewer in number this time, each was burly. However, upon seeing the twenty-odd people lying on the ground in the parking lot, their expressions clearly faltered.
The plan for a pincer attack, with an inside and outside force, had been easily thwarted by Song Qiao.
"Damn it, these useless fools!"
"Take them both down!"
Cursing, the lead assassin waved his hand, and his subordinates charged forward.
Deng Yihan was the first to bear the brunt, stumbling back a step in fear.
Song Qiao lunged forward, grabbing her arm, and looked at the charging assassins with a helpless expression.
"Miss Deng, it seems you're quite the hot commodity."
These people wanted to kill Deng Yihan here to intimidate those who dared to help the Ye Corporation. While Secretary Gao and Gao Yuan were untouchable, the Deng family could serve as a warning.
Song Qiao thought he had reacted quickly enough, but unexpectedly, his opponents were even more decisive, having already laid an ambush in the underground parking lot.
As a thought flashed through his mind, he leaped up, his body filled with true qi. In a single movement, he appeared before the leader!
"You..."
Before the man could utter a curse, Song Qiao sent him flying with a kick.
The dozen men behind him froze, and before they could react, Song Qiao had taken them all down and subdued them.
A moment later, he clapped his hands with a hint of disdain.
These guys were too weak. Ever since his true qi awakened, he had often faced masters of ancient martial arts. Dealing with these ordinary people who knew no martial arts felt like using a butcher's cleaver to kill a chicken.
Just then, a figure appeared at the entrance of the underground parking lot!
The man held a short saber in each hand. Upon seeing Song Qiao, he charged down without a word.
Seeing the fierce attack, Song Qiao became wary. His figure flickered, and he dodged the saber thrust.
He immediately frowned. This guy's movements had a certain flair of ancient martial arts.
Just as he thought his opponents were weak, a slightly stronger one appeared.
The man, around thirty years old, saw his killing blow dodged and turned to curse.
"Damn it! If I hadn't been careless, you wouldn't have dodged that move. Today, both you and this Deng Yihan will die here!"
His words were arrogant, and he had the right to be. Using ancient martial arts against ordinary people was like bullying the weak.
But when he charged again, Song Qiao casually kicked him backward!
His true qi erupted, sending the man crashing into the parking lot wall. He spat out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
"I thought he was going to be tough."
Song Qiao straightened his collar and shook his head slightly. This kind of guy thought he was amazing just because he knew a bit of ancient martial arts.
"Miss Deng, stop staring, let's go. You'll only be safe if we get back to the Deng family."
As far as he knew, the Deng family was quite powerful, and there were rumored to be ancient martial arts masters within the family.
Deng Yihan finally snapped back to reality and quickly got into the car with Song Qiao.
However, since the enemy had made a move, it wouldn't be just once. They would not rest until their objective was achieved!
"Song Qiao, there's a car chasing us!"
Not long after the sedan hit the road, Deng Yihan suddenly exclaimed in panic.
"Who are these people?"
"Even with more enemies in the past, our Deng family only faced legitimate business competition. Why are they immediately shouting and fighting?"
Song Qiao sighed softly.
"Actually, the commercial world is like a battlefield. They didn't act before simply because the timing wasn't right."
His words made Deng Yihan somewhat flustered.
"No, I have to call my dad. He doesn't know yet... Ah!"
As she was pulling out her phone to make a call, she suddenly screamed!
The sedan suddenly accelerated. With a press of the accelerator, Song Qiao drifted around a corner and turned onto another road.
Deep tire marks were left on the ground, and Deng Yihan in the car was terrified.
"You... What are you doing?"
"Trying to shake them off, of course."
Song Qiao replied casually. Glancing at the rearview mirror, he saw that the car behind them was more than ten meters behind and felt a bit relieved.
It was just one intersection. In a few more intersections, those following cars wouldn't even see his taillights.
"Alright, you can make your call now. They won't be able to catch up to me anytime soon."
Ever since his true qi awakened, Song Qiao's driving skills had improved dramatically, and his control over his surroundings was terrifyingly precise.
Deng Yihan, now sitting upright in the back seat in a slightly disheveled state, was about to complain about the sudden acceleration without warning, which had caused her such distress.
But at that very moment, after a muffled gunshot, one of the tires of Song Qiao's sedan exploded!
The car instantly lost speed, spinning several times in the middle of the road, accompanied by a screeching sound. Deng Yihan screamed repeatedly inside the car!
Fortunately, with the amplification of his internal true qi, Song Qiao's control over the surroundings was far superior to before.
He reacted instantly, sharply turning the steering wheel and forcibly stabilizing the car.
The sedan barely stopped in the mud, almost plunging into the roadside ditch.
Inside the car, the airbags in front of both of them deployed, so Deng Yihan was not seriously injured.
However, the sedan was forced to stop because of this.
