Chapter 2950 — Killing Shen Yushu

The Blossom Guardian

After Zhao Qibing returned to the Hidden Family, he rarely stirred up trouble in the secular world anymore. After all, at the Hidden level he too had to respect the Hidden rules. He had originally meant to ignore the burly man, but he had never expected the man to curse his grandfather — and wasn't that cursing Old Master Zhao? If he did nothing about it, and Zhao Qilei went back and whispered a poisoned word in Old Master Zhao's ear, he would be wronged to death.

So Zhao Qibing flung the door open, leapt out of the car, and drove a kick straight into the burly man's chest, sending him flying. A sword of blood burst from the man's mouth, and then he crashed heavily onto his own sports car with a tremendous bang, rolled his eyes white, and passed out.

"What kind of trash is this, biting off more than he can chew, and daring to curse me? If I weren't currently contending for the position of family head and unwilling to stir up complications, I'd have killed you outright!" Zhao Qibing gave a cold snort and paid the man's life or death no further mind.

Originally, many of the neighbors living nearby, having heard Zhao Qibing leaning on his horn and disturbing the peace, had been about to join the burly man in denouncing Zhao Qibing. But they had never imagined that Zhao Qibing would launch a flying kick and send the burly man flying with such ease, his life or death unknown — at once they were so frightened that they shrank back into their shells!

These residents all knew what the burly man was made of — he came from the underworld, the sort who could take on ten men at once, and he had even served as an instructor at a sanda training school. For a man like that to be kicked flying by Zhao Qibing — what level of strength did that take?

Just then, Shen Yushu happened to come out of her door. Seeing Zhao Qibing in the act of kicking the burly man flying, she frowned at once: "Little Zhao, what are you doing here? Didn't you take Brother Arrowbrand out for a meal?"

"Heh heh, if it isn't Shen Yushu!" Zhao Qibing looked at Shen Yushu, a cruel, sinister smile sliding across the corner of his mouth. "That's right, Wei Zhao has finished eating, and we've brought him back! Qitan, return Wei Zhao to this Miss Chen!"

Though Zhao Qilei was reluctant, there was nothing he could do. He could only carry Wei Zhao out of the car — and to keep Zhao Qibing from seeing through him, he slammed Wei Zhao heavily down before the villa's gate, at Shen Yushu's feet, producing a tremendous thud.

"Brother Arrowbrand, what's happened to you?" Seeing Wei Zhao lying on the ground, his hands and feet covered in blood, his face deathly pale, Shen Yushu and Gu Mengyao were both stunned!

"Zhao Qilei, what's the meaning of this? What have you done to Wei Zhao?" The reason Gu Mengyao demanded what Zhao Qilei had done to Wei Zhao, rather than asking what had happened to Wei Zhao, was that Zhao Qilei had slammed Wei Zhao onto the ground — and such treatment no longer suited his position as a subordinate!

"Gu Mengyao, Shen Yushu, can't you see it yet? Zhao Qilei has turned traitor and gone back to our Hidden Zhao Family! I don't mind telling you — Wei Zhao's condition is Zhao Qilei's doing!" Zhao Qibing did not forget to blacken Zhao Qilei's name.

"You—" Gu Mengyao was both furious and frantic. She had never imagined that Zhao Qilei would turn traitor, that after a single meal Wei Zhao would be beaten into such a state! Clearly, with Wei Zhao's strength, it was impossible for the Zhao Family to have hurt him — unless by scheme! And the one Wei Zhao would least guard against was Zhao Qilei, so Gu Mengyao naturally connected the dots and concluded it was Zhao Qilei who had harmed Wei Zhao. "How can you be so utterly ungrateful? Wei Zhao has always treated you well, yet you betray him at the critical moment!"

"Miss Gu, as the saying goes, the one who knows the times is a man of parts. Now that I have the chance to become the head of the Hidden Zhao Family, why shouldn't I take it?" Zhao Qilei gave a cold snort. "Since there's nothing else, I'll be going. You'd best take a last few looks at Wei Zhao — I expect his enemies will soon be beating down the door. And when they do, heh heh..."

Though Zhao Qilei's tone was icy, he was in truth reminding Gu Mengyao and Shen Yushu to think of a way out quickly — yet he could not say so plainly, and could only hint at it in this manner.

"You... get lost!" Gu Mengyao was beside herself with rage. How could she ever have imagined that Zhao Qilei would turn traitor so thoroughly, cutting off all ties of gratitude and loyalty?

"Lost I'll get, then. You think I want to stay here?" Zhao Qilei said flatly, and with that he turned to get back in the car.

Wei Zhao knew that Zhao Qilei was innocent, but in front of Zhao Qibing he could not explain further, and could only let him turn and leave.

But Zhao Qibing had no intention of letting matters rest there. His gaze was still fixed on Shen Yushu, and a wicked light came into his eyes!

"Shen Yushu, before this I didn't dare touch you, but this time no one can save you!" Zhao Qibing's voice carried incomparable fury. "You little bitch, you came to my company to watch the building collapse, and you used a rod to hit my legs and my head! Did you really think I was afraid of you? If Wei Zhao hadn't been there shielding you, do you think you'd still be alive today? I don't dare kill Wei Zhao for the moment, but killing you carries no such worry — you're nothing but a girl of the secular Chen Family, and if you die, you die for nothing!"

Zhao Qibing already hated Shen Yushu to the bone. He had long wanted to kill her — this little wench had dared come to his company to watch the building collapse, and had even tricked him into taking a beating. If he didn't kill her now, he'd be doing a grave injustice to Wei Zhao's injury this time!

"Zhao Qibing, don't go too far!" Wei Zhao had held his tongue all this while, but at this moment he truly could not bear it any longer! He could accept what had been done to himself, but laying hands on Shen Yushu and Gu Mengyao was something Wei Zhao could not tolerate. "Don't forget, I still have some underlings at the ancient level. If you insist on doing this, then what awaits you is something you can imagine for yourself!"

"You're trying to scare me?" Zhao Qibing was not moved in the least. He glared and laughed. "Ancient-level underlings? Those are yours, not Shen Yushu's. I don't believe your ancient-level underlings would avenge her! If your ancient-level underlings were truly so useful, why haven't you contacted them? On the way back, I didn't take your phone, nor did I stop you from contacting anyone — you think I don't know that? Don't fob me off with the excuse that your arms are broken. I know that if you wanted to make a call, you could!"

"Then with my hands broken, why don't you watch me try to make a call!" Wei Zhao said, somewhat irritated. "Zhao Qibing, I advise you to know when to stop."

"Know when to stop? I, Zhao Qibing, have endured for so long, and I've had enough!" Zhao Qibing paid Wei Zhao no more heed, but leapt straight up and drove a fist at Shen Yushu! He hated Shen Yushu far too much — otherwise he could never have struck so ruthlessly from the very first blow!
