"He actually caught it?"
Even An Shiqing’s face flashed with surprise. He had no intention to kill and had planned to hold back at the critical mont; however, to his astonishnt, Su Luo’s performance exceeded his expectations. In the end, there was no need for him to pull his punches, as Su Luo actually managed to block his palm strike with his own strength.
This was indeed unexpected for him.
After Su Luo caught An Shiqing’s palm strike, the obstructing airflow around An Ran dissipated. An Ran rushed to Su Luo’s side at the first opportunity, asking anxiously, "Brother Su Luo, are you alright?"
Su Luo shook his head: "I’m fine."
He then looked at An Shiqing and asked, "Uncle An, now, can you let An Ran make her own choices?"
An Shiqing didn’t directly answer Su Luo’s question but instead asked, "Just to allow An Ran to stay for three more days, you were willing to risk your life and catch my palm strike?"
Su Luo shook his head: "It’s not about the three days, it’s about freedom. I hope An Ran can act on her own will, without being forced!"
An Shiqing fell silent.
An Ran, with a slight flutter of her eyelashes, looked at Su Luo with even more tenderness in her eyes and pressed her lips lightly together: "Brother Su Luo, thank you."
"No need to thank ." Su Luo smiled. There would be no effect without a cause; had An Ran not been kind to him, he wouldn’t have done this.
"Kid, you’ve got guts. I take back what I said about you being extrely foolish." A mont later, An Shiqing took out a small jade bottle from his pocket and tossed it to Su Luo through the air.
After saying this, he turned and left. With a single step, he moved like lightning, covering a distance of more than ten ters in just a few seconds. An Shiqing’s figure gradually disappeared from Su Luo and the others’ line of sight.
Although it wasn’t as profound as shrinking the ground into an inch, it was still a demonstration of An Shiqing’s powerful strength and terrifying speed. He truly deserved to be a Great Grandmaster-level expert.
"Brother Su Luo, inside this bottle must be our An Family’s unique healing elixir. You should take it quickly to recover from your injuries," An Ran urged as she hurriedly opened the small jade bottle in Su Luo’s hand and poured out a bright yellow pill that emitted a clear and fragrant dicinal scent.
Su Luo didn’t hesitate; he directly consud the pill.
After all, he really was quite injured.
Once the elixir entered his body, Su Luo soon felt a surging dicinal power dissolve within him, spreading into his limbs and healing his body.
Not only that, but the energy contained in the pill was absorbed by Su Luo, causing his martial skill level to grow.
This elixir was truly extraordinary.
In just a few minutes, Su Luo’s injuries had mostly healed.
"Brother Su Luo, how do you feel?" An Ran’s eyes were filled with concern.
Su Luo replied with a smile: "I’ve mostly recovered. Let’s go."
"Okay," An Ran nodded.
Zhou Ye, following behind, felt that his admiration for Su Luo was like a never-ending stream of water.
It wasn’t just that Su Luo could catch a palm strike from a Great Grandmaster, but also that he had managed to impress the pearl of the Capital’s An Family—this was truly aweso.
Li Zong couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth. He thought that with Su Luo’s current performance, as long as he didn’t et with an early demise, he was bound to beco one of the top powerhouses in the world soday.
If his young lady could really end up with Su Luo, it would indeed be a wonderful tale.
It’s just that this Su Luo seed... quite fickle!
After leaving Yuxi Town, Su Luo had Zhou Ye return to Jiangbei first, while he decided to head directly to Jintian City.
According to what Nangong Yu, the Hall Master of the dicine God Temple, had said, the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce had a sub-branch in Jintian City, and Su Luo decided to go there to inquire about Shen Qingzhi’s whereabouts.
...
Jintian City!
By the ti Su Luo and his company left the airport, the sky had already darkened.
"Brother Su Luo, let’s find a hotel to stay in first," suggested An Ran, patting her sowhat growling stomach.
"Okay," Su Luo nodded in agreent.
It was their first ti in Jintian, in unfamiliar territory, and considering that the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce had a sub-branch here, to so extent, this was their turf.
Before figuring out the situation, they indeed could not act rashly.
"This hotel is nice, and moreover, it’s only one street away from the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce Sub-branch. If we could get a room on a high floor, we might have the opportunity to observe the Sub-branch."
An Ran found a five-star hotel online and handed her phone to Su Luo to check.
They had already learned the location of the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce Sub-branch from Nangong Yu.
After looking it over, Su Luo imdiately agreed.
Subsequently, Su Luo, An Ran, and Li Zong took a taxi to the five-star hotel that was just one street away from the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce Sub-branch.
Sofitel Hotel!
Luckily, this ti, An Ran directly booked three rooms, instead of insisting to share a room with Su Luo again.
After dinner.
Su Luo stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel room, holding binoculars in his hand, looking through the window at "Hua Feng Building" just one street away!
Yes!
According to Nangong Yu, the Sub-branch of the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce was inside the Hua Feng Building!
Right in the most bustling area of Jintian City!
And the Hua Feng Building was affiliated with the Hua Feng Group, which publicly appeared as a giant conglorate involved in multiple industries, with a market value reaching a hundred billion, but in fact, it was just a group that collected wealth for the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce.
At this mont, inside the Hua Feng Building, it was still brightly lit, showing that many office workers were working overti.
Probably, no one would imagine that within that Hua Feng Building, there existed an entirely different world.
"Precisely because of this, it’s not good to explore the Dragon Soul Chamber of Comrce Sub-branch at night!" Su Luo frowned in thought.
Because it was a high-rise building in a busy urban area, it was nearly impossible to climb in from outside, and even more impossible to infiltrate the building to find the Sub-branch and sneak in.
Without thinking much, Su Luo knew there must be a large number of electronic devices for identity verification, and any careless intrusion might startle the enemy.
While Su Luo was deep in thought.
In a room extravagantly decorated across the street, in Hua Feng Building, Zhou Shihao was taking a bath, or more accurately, a dicinal bath.
After all, his arm had been severed by Su Luo, and he was seriously injured, so he was looking to recover from his injuries and improve his realm as much as possible to compensate for the lost strength of his severed arm.
He knew very well that he had to demonstrate his worth.
Otherwise, having lost everything, he would beco disposable.
Luckily for him, Wan Yuanhai had lost both Zhuo Qingfeng and his wife Chen Lihua, two Fifth-Grade Grandmasters, which led to Wan Yuanhai’s diminished forces, thereby still keeping him in Wan Yuanhai’s favor, who was trying to find ways to improve his Martial Arts prowess.
"Su Luo, I will definitely kill everyone around you, tornt you to death amidst agonizing despair!"
Zhou Shihao gnashed his teeth, his eyes filled with hatred for Su Luo.
And just at that mont.
The cellphone placed beside him began to ring.
Who was calling him?
A strange number?
Not many people knew his cell phone number, so Zhou Shihao answered with a solemn voice, "Who is this?"
A voice that had clearly been altered to be unrecognizable as either male or female ca from the earpiece: "At this very mont, Su Luo is in the Sofitel Hotel opposite Hua Feng Group, in room 1813. He has co to Jintian City for Shen Qingzhi."
"Who are you?" Zhou Shihao hurriedly asked.
However, after giving the ssage, the person on the other end ended the call, and when Zhou Shihao tried to call back, the phone was already turned off.
Regardless of who the person was or their motives, the ssage was critically important to him.
"Su Luo, it’s as if after a long search for sothing impossible to find, it’s unexpectedly obtained without effort. This ti, I will make sure you have no resting place in death!" Zhou Shihao gnashed his teeth, determined to ensure Su Luo had no way back.
