Since Qin Shilei had already decided to take the other person with him, An Qian did not object. She simply linked her right arm intimately with Qin Shilei's, as if to declare her possession.
Zhao Yueling, being very understanding, did not try to get closer again. She turned and got into an SUV with her remaining three subordinates, heading towards Junhai City.
Qin Shilei also took out an SUV and followed them.
The place was not too far from Junhai City, so there was no need to continue flying on Little Qiang.
A little over an hour later, they had entered Junhai City.
In front of the Zhao mansion.
Zhao Yueling got out of the car. "I was in such a hurry earlier that I didn't get a chance to ask for your esteemed names, my benefactors. Zhao Yueling is being impolite."
Qin Shilei replied calmly, "Qin Shilei and An Qian."
Zhao Yueling felt that these two names were very familiar, but she couldn't recall where she had heard them.
She pointed to the Zhao mansion behind her. "Mr. Qin, Miss An, this is my home. Please come in, and I will host you properly to express my gratitude."
Before Qin Shilei could reply, a guard at the entrance of the Zhao mansion stepped forward and said coldly, "Miss Yueling, the master wants to see you as soon as you return. Please come."
Zhao Yueling's face turned cold, and she said in a low voice, "Can't you see I'm greeting my friends? Get out of the way."
The guard lowered his head to hide his disdain. "I've delivered the message. Whether you come or not is your business."
After speaking, he did not move, standing directly in front of Zhao Yueling and her companions.
Zhao Yueling's face was icy. "Do you believe I'll cripple you right now?"
The guard realized that Zhao Yueling's strength was far superior to his, and he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"Who has angered my dear sister Yueling? Let your brother teach him a lesson."
Just then, a young master with a smile on his face walked out of the Zhao mansion.
"Hmph!" Zhao Yueling cast a look of disdain at him but did not respond.
Qin Shilei stepped forward. "Miss Zhao, we'll take our leave now. There is just one thing I need to trouble you to keep an eye out for."
"It is truly impolite of me not to host you properly, my benefactors," Zhao Yueling said apologetically. "What is it you need, Mr. Qin?"
Qin Shilei said, "A group of my subordinates should be arriving in Junhai City in the next couple of days. There are nearly eight hundred of them, led by someone named Jie Mingchen. If Miss Zhao has any news of them, please inform me."
The young master nearby showed a hint of joy upon hearing this and stepped forward, chiding, "My dear Yueling, you are truly something. Since they are your benefactors, why didn't you invite them into the mansion for a proper thank you?"
He then turned to Qin Shilei and invited him, "I am Zhao Yulong. Please, Mr. Qin, come inside."
"No need." Qin Shilei finished speaking and turned to get into his car to leave.
"I happen to know someone named Jie Mingchen. I wonder if it's the one you're looking for," Zhao Yulong's leisurely voice came from behind.
"The Jie Mingchen you're talking about, does he lead a team of over seven hundred people?" Qin Shilei turned and asked.
"Precisely," Zhao Yulong said bluntly. "Your team's strength is quite decent. Follow me from now on. I can make you one of the top ten mercenary groups in Junhai City."
"Heh."
Qin Shilei chuckled lightly. "No need. Just tell me their location."
"What?" Zhao Yulong's expression turned cold, and he said in a deep voice, "Are you looking down on our Zhao family?"
"Not at all," Qin Shilei said calmly. "It's just that you're not qualified to be my boss."
"Hahaha."
Zhao Yulong burst into laughter. "I am the eldest young master of the Zhao family, one of the Four Young Masters of Junhai City, and a peak expert of Silver Five-star. You actually say I'm not qualified?"
"If I'm not qualified, then who is?"
Qin Shilei smiled slightly. "On this Blue Star, I don't think anyone dares to say they can be my boss."
"Hmph!"
Zhao Yulong sneered, "You talk so big, you must be afraid of the wind blowing your tongue off. With mere seven or eight hundred subordinates at Bronze level, you've become this arrogant."
Several of his subordinates also began to mock him.
"Who knows what backwater village this bumpkin came from. Thinks he's so great with Bronze level subordinates. So arrogant."
"We have over twenty peak experts at Silver level in our Zhao family, and none of them are as arrogant as him."
"To be the young master's subordinate is his greatest honor. He doesn't know how to cherish it. What a clueless fellow."
"No one on the Blue Star dares to say they can be my boss! That's a huge joke. Does he think he's the best in the world?"
Qin Shilei was too lazy to argue with these people and turned to leave.
As for the location of Jie Mingchen and the others, he could find out later. He would find them eventually.
Qin Shilei didn't care, but Zhao Yulong felt that he had been underestimated.
He clenched his fist and swung it at Qin Shilei's back.
To show his magnanimity, he deliberately called out, "You say I'm not qualified? Then let me see how capable you are."
Zhao Yueling also reminded him, "Mr. Qin, be careful."
As his fist was about to hit the opponent's back, Zhao Yulong showed a hint of a disdainful smile.
He secretly thought that he would first subdue the opponent, then lecture him on not being too arrogant, reminding him that there are always people better than you.
Then, he would show his generosity by overlooking the opponent's offense and offering a small benefit, which should be enough to recruit him.
This was called subduing by force.
However, the disdainful smile on his face froze, and then turned into an expression of pain.
Zhao Yulong only saw a blur before his eyes and felt a sharp pain in his stomach.
Then, his body flew through the air and crashed heavily into the bronze gate of the Zhao mansion.
Boom!
The bronze gate and Zhao Yulong continued to fly backward, hitting a tree more than ten meters away before stopping.
"Pfft!"
Zhao Yulong spat out a mouthful of blood, then his head lolled to the side, and he fainted.
The scene instantly fell silent, with everyone staring at Qin Shilei in shock.
"Is the young master alright?" After a long while, Zhao Yulong's lackeys came to their senses and rushed into the Zhao mansion to attend to their master.
The surrounding pedestrians also started whispering and discussing.
"Did I see that correctly? This person actually kicked Young Master Zhao flying?"
"Not only did he kick Zhao Yulong flying, but he also took down the Zhao mansion's gate."
"He took down Zhao Yulong in one move. This person must be Silver Six or Seven-star, right?"
"Even Silver Nine-star is useless. Offending the Zhao family, he probably won't live to see tomorrow."
"That's true. Two fists can't defeat four hands. If he doesn't leave now, when the Zhao family comes out, he'll lose his life on the spot."
After kicking Zhao Yulong away, Qin Shilei turned and got into the car with An Qian, driving away as if nothing had happened.
Those behind him were still discussing.
"He's got some sense. He's leaving the city quickly before the Zhao family reacts. He might be able to save his life."
"His direction doesn't look like he's leaving the city. Is he that stupid, trying to hide in the city?"
"He's incorrigible. Trying to hide in the city? I guarantee he won't live to see tomorrow."
