Qin Tuo walked off without a backward glance, as if nothing had happened.

The thugs scrambled to their feet, grimacing in pain.

”Boss, what now?”

one of the thugs asked in frustration.

The tall one slapped him irritably.

”What do you think we’re going to do? Go get more men, now!”

With that, he quickly led his men in pursuit of Qin Tuo.

...

In an office building, Hu Qihao smoked a cigar with his feet propped up on the desk, listening as his beautiful assistant reported on finances and gang affairs.

The beautiful assistant reported patiently, but Hu Qihao’s brow furrowed deeper the more he heard.

He suddenly slammed his feet to the floor, cutting her off.

”When is Master Hong going to recover?”

The beautiful assistant replied,

”Well... it will likely take a while longer for him to fully recuperate.”

Hu Qihao heard this and rubbed his temples in agony, starting to curse under his breath.

”Damn it, why isn’t he better yet? This gang leader job is absolute hell!”

After Hong Qing had been injured, he had gone into seclusion to recover. He’d dumped nearly all the Cyan Fire Gang’s affairs onto Hu Qihao.

Hu Qihao was originally just a Hall Master. Now that he had taken over the entire Cyan Fire Gang, he was completely overwhelmed and couldn’t stop complaining.

Hu Qihao used to dream about how glorious it would be to be the gang leader.

Not anymore!

Given his personality, he much preferred the comfortable, leisurely life of a Hall Master.

His beautiful assistant sighed and lamented,

”Sigh, what can we do? It’s all that kid’s fault for injuring the boss. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be stuck managing a million things a day!”

At these words, Hu Qihao’s expression changed. He couldn’t help but think of...

...the astonishing display from that young man, Qin Tuo, at Ouyang Tianqi’s banquet.

Hu Qihao knew better than anyone how skilled Hong Qing was.

But he never imagined that Hong Qing would be defeated by Qin Tuo with a single finger!

The incident had become Hu Qihao’s personal nightmare. Every day, he prayed he would never have to cross paths with that Evil God.

Seeing the grim look on his face, his assistant quickly asked,

”Hall Master, are you alright?”

Hu Qihao waved a dismissive hand, concealing his expression.

”It’s nothing. You can leave first. I want to get some sleep. I’ve been exhausted lately.”

”Of course, Hall Master!”

The beautiful assistant quickly got up and left the office.

Hu Qihao had just managed to calm himself and was about to lie down for a bit when the office door was suddenly kicked open.

CRASH!

Rage surged through Hu Qihao, and he roared,

”Which blind son of a bitch dares to kick down my door?”

Qin Tuo walked in, his face devoid of expression, and stared coldly at Hu Qihao.

When he got a clear look at Qin Tuo’s face, Hu Qihao’s furious expression froze, and his eyes went wide as saucers.

’No way...’

’Am I hallucinating?’ Hu Qihao wondered.

He had just been thinking about this Evil God, and now the man himself was standing right in front of him!

Qin Tuo, however, didn’t recognize Hu Qihao. He frowned and asked,

”You’re the boss of Jinghua Garden?”

Hu Qihao finally snapped out of it. Seeing that Qin Tuo didn’t recognize him, he nodded hastily.

”Yes, I’m the boss here. What can I do for you?”

Qin Tuo said gravely,

”Your men just told me someone wants me dead. I came to ask who.”

Hearing this, Hu Qihao’s face filled with astonishment. He blurted out instinctively,

”Huh? I don’t know anything about that!”

The words had barely left his mouth when his heart skipped a beat. He suddenly remembered that Zheng Lin had asked him to take care of someone at Jinghua Garden today.

’Could that person... be this monster in front of me?’

At that thought, his face turned deathly pale, and he was at a loss for words.

Just then, the group of thugs burst in!

When he saw Qin Tuo already confronting Hu Qihao, the tall thug yelled,

”Brother Hao, be careful! This kid’s a monster! Let us handle him!”

Several thugs rushed over to shield Hu Qihao, glaring daggers at Qin Tuo.

The tall thug brandished his dagger, slowly closing in.

”I’m warning you, kid, don’t try anything stupid! Our backup is almost here. When they arrive, you won’t even have a chance to run!”

Hearing what his men said, Hu Qihao was finally certain.

’So the person Zheng Lin wanted dead tonight was actually Qin Tuo?’

At this realization, Hu Qihao’s legs went weak with fear.

Suddenly, the thugs let out a yell and charged at Qin Tuo!

Seeing his men dare to attack this Evil God, Hu Qihao shot up and kicked the tall thug.

”Damn it! You bastards must have a death wish! How dare you attack Mr. Qin?! Get your men and get the hell out of here!”

The tall thug was kicked to the ground, his face a mask of pure confusion.

”Huh? Brother Hao, what’s going on? Why are you so scared of this kid?”

The rest of the thugs were frozen in place, completely baffled.

Seeing his men standing there dumbfounded, Hu Qihao roared,

”Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear what I said?”

Seeing that Hu Qihao was genuinely furious, the tall thug didn’t dare to disobey. He quickly waved his hand.

”Didn’t you hear Brother Hao? All of you, out!”

The lackeys hastily retreated from the office.

The tall thug, meanwhile, climbed to his feet, wincing in pain, and hurriedly apologized to Qin Tuo.

”Sir, I’m so sorry. Today was all a misunderstanding. We were blind. Please, don’t take it to heart!”

Although he didn’t understand the exact reason for all this, he could guess some of it.

Hu Qihao quickly grabbed a chair and brought it over, a fawning smile plastered on his face.

”Mr. Qin, please have a seat!”

Seeing Qin Tuo take a seat, he immediately barked at the tall thug,

”What are you gawking at? Go make our best tea for Mr. Qin!”

The tall thug nodded quickly and went to make tea.

But Qin Tuo waved a hand.

”Don’t bother. Just tell me, how do you know who I am?”

Hu Qihao laughed.

”Mr. Qin, you must meet so many people you’ve forgotten. At Mr. Ouyang’s banquet, I personally witnessed you fight Master Hong and injure him. I was standing right behind Master Hong at the time...”

He said this with a deeply embarrassed expression.

Realization dawned on Qin Tuo, and then a faint, unreadable smile touched his lips.

”Since you knew who I was, why didn’t you just have me killed?”

Cold sweat beaded on Hu Qihao’s forehead. He hastily wiped it away as he explained,

”You’re joking, Mr. Qin! I wouldn’t dare! I’d like to live a few more years, thank you very much!”

It was clear that Qin Tuo had scared him half to death.

Qin Tuo smiled in praise and patted Hu Qihao’s shoulder.

”Boss Hu, you certainly know how to adapt to a situation. But I’d like to know, who exactly wants me dead?”

Hu Qihao answered immediately.

”It’s the young master of the Zheng Family. He offered one million to have you killed. He didn’t show up himself today, though. A man named Zhang Cheng negotiated with me.”

Qin Tuo couldn’t help but laugh.

”One million? I guess my life is worth a pretty penny!”

”Alright! I’ll let you get back to it. Won’t bother you any further!”

Having gotten a satisfactory answer, Qin Tuo patted Hu Qihao’s shoulder again and turned to leave.

”Take care, Mr. Qin!”

Hu Qihao was the very picture of sycophancy. Only after seeing Qin Tuo out did he finally let out a long sigh of relief.

It felt like he’d just taken a stroll through the gates of hell and back.

”B-Brother Hao... he... he’s really the young man who injured Master Hong?”

The tall thug finally managed to stammer out the question. The story had spread throughout the entire Cyan Fire Gang, but he never expected to meet the man in person!

”No shit! You think I’d be this scared otherwise?”

Hu Qihao shot the tall thug a venomous glare.

”Go and pass the order! Tell everyone in the gang that until Master Hong has recovered and returned, no one is to provoke this man, Qin Tuo!”

”Otherwise, don’t blame me if I wipe out their entire family!”

”What are you still gawking at? Go!”

The tall thug quickly complied and scrambled away.
