“Young Master!”
“Young Master, watch your step!”
A chubby young man followed by several bodyguards.
After saying just a few words,
“Ouch!”
The chubby young man fell to the ground, motionless.
Qin Luo blinked, pointing to the blob of flesh on the ground as he introduced, “Young Mistress, this is the second young master of the Qian Family, Qian Duoduo.”
“He burned his brain out from a high fever when he was a child.”
“The equipment for pumping water this time is provided by him.”
??? Qian Duoduo?
Upon hearing this casual name, Su Muwan frowned immediately.
She looked at Qian Duoduo, who was struggling to get up, tears streaming down his face from the fall.
Hmm?
Oh!
Su Muwan remembered.
Qian Duoduo, the younger brother of Qian Yu.
In her previous life, he had been well-protected by the Qian Family and rarely ventured out; family business had nothing to do with him.
But what’s going on this time?
The Qian Family was definitely not stupid; allowing Qian Duoduo to help them for free clearly seemed like they were deliberately currying favor with them.
Su Muwan thought for a moment. She leaned closer to Qin Luo and whispered, “Qin Luo, other than this fool similar to Feng Yueke, has anyone else from the Qian Family recently approached you?”
Qin Luo, upon hearing this, thought for a moment.
After going through his thoughts, he replied,
“No.”
Hmm?
This is odd.
Su Muwan couldn’t understand. She had originally assumed that the Qian Family was impressed by Qin Luo’s medical skills and hoped he could help them, which was why they were trying to curry favor.
Maybe they were just being genuinely kind?
Ha, how could that be possible.
Su Muwan decided not to think about it anymore.
Instead, her demeanor turned haughty. Outside, after all, she was the young mistress of the Su family, and she had to maintain her persona.
Watching Qian Duoduo and his entourage cheerfully approaching,
Su Muwan spoke indifferently, “Where’s the eldest young master of the Qian Family, Qian Yu?”
“How come you’re letting your second young master out?”
Su Muwan’s aura was intimidating.
Even Qian Duoduo and his bodyguards couldn’t help but tremble.
Qian Duoduo glanced at Su Muwan, then fearfully covered his eyes: “Dad... Dad sent me to help Master Qin, saying... saying he’s a good person...”
“And my brother... he... he’s in the hospital and hasn’t come home...”
Su Muwan blinked. She looked at Qin Luo.
The latter blinked, then looked at the bodyguards behind Qian Duoduo: “Do I know your family head?”
gulp.
The bodyguards swallowed their saliva, then explained with a bow, “Master Qin may not remember.”
“Previously, at Shangguan Xiao’s engagement banquet, Master Qin slapped our family head a few times.”
Su Muwan realized, “So you’re actually here to...”
“To express our gratitude to Master Qin for those slaps, our family head had the second young master bring our technology to repay Master Qin!”
Su Muwan: .....
This world is truly insane.
Su Muwan felt a bit exhausted. She patted Qin Luo’s shoulder, signaling for him to handle it.
The Qian family members also noticed that Qin Luo was indeed Su Muwan’s confidant. Look! She was leaving all these matters to Qin Luo to deal with!
The old man’s foresight is indeed impeccable!
“Master Qin.”
The bodyguards respectfully bowed.
Whether the person backing him was Su Muwan or not, just based on his medical skills and social status, they were already awed and respected him.
Qin Luo nodded, looking at the vast sea, and said, “Alright, don’t just stand there—change the water.”
“Yes, Master Qin.”
The bodyguards said, then signaled to the dozens of powerful-looking martial artists behind them, “Start!”
In the next second, under the gaze of Qin Luo and Su Muwan,
Dozens of martial artists with formidable auras leaped into the air.
Wow, all at the peak of the martial arts realm.
The dozens of peak-level martial artists shouted in unison, “Rise!!”
They simultaneously spread their arms, forming complex hand seals.
A powerful aura of genuine qi instantly filled the air, as if the entire world was trembling.
As their movements continued, the sea began to ripple violently.
The seawater seemed to be pulled by some mysterious force, surging and rising on all sides.
Dozens of massive streams of water swirled in the air like giant dragons.
The onlookers were dumbfounded.
Although they knew martial artists were extraordinary, witnessing such a large-scale water control scene still left them in awe.
Most importantly...
Hiring so many water control masters—how much would that cost? It seems like they’ve gathered all the elite water controllers in the world!
Meanwhile, members of the Qian Family at the center of the site quickly set up a massive array.
The array consisted of countless intricate talismans and special stones, glowing with a faint blue light, perfectly complementing the martial artists’ water-controlling powers.
“Activate the array!”
With a command from the Qian Family members,
The array was instantly activated, and the blue light suddenly intensified, forming a giant energy shield that enveloped the entire sea area.
The talismans inside the array began to rotate rapidly, continuously absorbing and purifying the seawater being drawn.
The martial artists continued their water control, channeling the purified water back into the sea.
Simultaneously, they funneled the contaminated seawater into the array for further purification.
Su Muwan watched in astonishment.
Not...
Not bad?
Qin Luo, on the other hand, clapped his hands nearby, “Impressive—way too professional.”
“Hehe, thank you for your kind words, Master Qin.”
Qian Duoduo shyly scratched the back of his head.
Qin Luo looked at him and asked, “Must have cost a fortune, eh?”
Su Muwan also nodded in agreement.
Damn rich people.
The Qian Family truly lives up to their reputation as the wealthiest family in the East.
Sometimes, Su Muwan really thinks they must have too much money to burn, so they find ways to spend it in such places.
Qian Duoduo shook his head, “It’s... not much... Dad said it’s just a small amount, as long as Master Qin and Sister-in-law are happy.”
Master Qin... Sister-in-law?
Su Muwan was stunned. She glanced at Qin Luo, then at Qian Duoduo.
Then,
“Ahem!”
Su Muwan walked over to Qin Luo, patted his shoulder, and smiled at him playfully, “Qin Luo, I think this little fatty is quite nice! Far better than that Qian Yu!”
“Since the Qian Family has shown so much sincerity, I’ll just target Qian Yu, not the Qian Family.”
In just a few words, she decided the future of the Qian Family.
The members of the Qian Family nearby were all in shock.
No wonder the old man had the foresight to immediately come and curry favor with Su Muwan and them!
Otherwise...
Our Qian Family... might have been eradicated by Su Muwan with a single palm for Qian Yu’s incompetence!
Qin Luo glanced at the delighted Su Muwan and couldn’t help but smile, “Yes, young mistress.”
A few hours later, the water replacement process was finally complete.
Thud, thud!
A dozen sharks, transported via air, were released into the sea.
One of them, Su Muwan even recognized.
“Hey! Qin Luo! Look!”
Su Muwan pointed at the most bewildered shark, excitedly saying, “It’s the one we used as a motorbike back then!!”
Qin Luo smiled, “I specifically caught it for you.”
“Hehe, Qin Luo, you’re the best.”
The shark: “???”
This time, the Jiang City sea truly has sharks.
With the matter concluded,
“Alright, everyone.”
Qin Luo smiled lightly at Qian Duoduo and the others, or rather, gazed at an old man behind Qian Duoduo, “Now, it’s time to discuss the serious matter.”
“The Qian Family wants to seek protection, right?”
The old man stroked Qian Duoduo’s head, first having the bodyguards take him away.
Then, he looked at Qin Luo and Su Muwan, his gaze revealing a trace of surprise.
Qin Luo addressed Zhu Lan and the others, saying, “Shen Fei, you all go first.”
“Sure, Brother Luo.”
“Hey... I’m not someone you can... Shen Fei??”
Zhu Lan and the others left.
Su Muwan was a bit confused by the side.
What? Today wasn’t meant to be just about watching the sea get replaced?
With the bystanders gone,
The old man nodded, sighed lightly, and bowed, saying, “Master Qin truly lives up to his reputation—you anticipated this.”
“Indeed, after the competition, our Qian Family will... cease to exist.”
“Because we have touched upon the taboo forbidden by the Martial Arts Alliance.”
“Which is... artificial martial artists.”
Qin Luo, after hearing this, calculated with his fingers.
Heh, interesting... No wonder the system is preparing for an upgrade.
So that’s the case.
With that thought, Qin Luo’s eyes revealed a hint of something unfathomable, and the corner of his mouth slightly curved, “Well, congratulations—you’ve come to the right person.”
"In this city of Jiang City, who dares to provoke our Miss Su? Even the Martial Arts Alliance won't be able to help them rise to power!"
Su Muwan was bewildered.
Huh? What on earth are you talking about, Qin Luo?
What kind of riddle are you guys trying to solve here?
Hey! I'm the queen of Jiang City, alright? Show me some respect, would you?
And?
Why does this involve the Martial Arts Alliance?
Finally, am I going to be mysteriously isolated by the world again?
