Tony gnashed his teeth in fury, his eyes brimming with malice.
Yet, he truly did not dare to oppose the man before him, even his father was of no use!
If one were to talk about a playboy, the man before him was the true hypocrite and master of seduction. However, these were words he dared not speak.
"Qiao, you will regret this!" Tony spat bitterly, throwing down the bottle of essential oil and walking away.
The incident had upset Qiao Yuchan too much for her to want to stay any longer. Feeling sowhat annoyed, she imdiately got up to leave.
"Miss, if you need any help, you can co to . I'm quite familiar with this area.
Additionally, my na is Steven, and I am a martial artist. If you run into troubles, just ntion my na. In the Laima Principality, I assure you no one will dare to provoke you!" Steven said with courteous dignity, evidently far superior to Tony.
Upon hearing his words, Qiao Yuchan paused, glanced at him, and responded lightly, "Thank you!"
From his tone, he seed quite influential, as could be discerned from Tony's behavior earlier.
This person, possessing such status and energy yet showing her respect, did not display any inappropriate intentions in his gaze.
She understood such people; if they had any special thoughts, it would be a matter of a few words.
There was no need for him to be excessively polite or employ such tactics with her, at least, he didn't know she was an expert herself.
Little did she know, this was precisely his cleverness.
In fact, this was all a psychological ga. Steven knew the effect his words would have on a normal person.
"By the way, arrange accommodations for !" Qiao Yuchan spoke calmly.
Since she had encountered soone with a bit of influence and the attitude wasn't bad, why not take advantage of it?
Mainly because a person with so background could provide her insights into things about this world that ordinary people couldn't know.
This ti out, she wanted to learn more about Ling Fan's past.
Of course, she wouldn't just use him without offering sothing in return. Since he was a martial artist, she would reward him with so cultivation resources afterward!
Upon hearing this, Steven imdiately smiled and said, "I'm glad to be of help. Nelson, book a room for this lady!"
"Yes!"
Nelson hurriedly responded, thoroughly admiring his boss's skills in wooing won.
"I have other matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you further. Nelson, you stay.
If the lady requires anything, try to satisfy her requests. If there are any issues you can't handle, call !" Steven instructed, pretending to be in a hurry, greeted Qiao Yuchan, and left.
It wasn't for nothing that he was considered clever. His skill in playing hard to get was brilliant, making Qiao Yuchan believe he harbored no inappropriate desires!
"Absence makes the heart grow fonder," probably ant this!
Watching Steven's retreating figure, Qiao Yuchan indeed thought more highly of him.
He hadn't, unlike Tony earlier, lecherously hovered around her incessantly. Compared to Tony, his character was clearly superior!
...
In the Laima Principality, at the Headquarters of the Martial Alliance.
"Head, I've received news that Ling Beiming seems to be heading our way, but it's unclear whether he's coming to cause us trouble," a protector reported urgently.
The Head of the White Kingdom Martial Alliance, Mike, was startled and imdiately rose from his seat.
"What did you say?" Mike's face changed drastically, cursing under his breath. Ling Beiming had survived a near-death experience and now he was coming here?
"According to the news, Ling Beiming has entered our country!" the protector said sheepishly.
"Ssh~"
Mike inhaled sharply, worrying about exactly what he feared most. He had never imagined that Ling Beiming would co straight for him.
"Damn it, it shouldn't be like this. I wasn't his most hated enemy back then. If he was to cause trouble, he should have sought out the guy from the Nanli Kingdom first. Why co after !" Mike muttered, trembling internally.
"Maybe, it's just a coincidence. Perhaps there's so matter he needs to attend to here?" the protector hesitated.
"Bullshit, are you farting around? Damn it, this scourge just caused chaos in Snow Country, and now he shows up here, what could he possibly want?
It's clearly targeted at us. Do you know his exact whereabouts?" Mike shouted angrily.
"We're looking into it!" the protector wiped the sweat from his forehead, repeatedly saying.
"Go check it out now, make it clear! Hurry, quickly!" Mike nearly roared in anger.
He was genuinely panicking and made imdiate connections with several countries' alliances.
These countries' Martial Alliances were in it together, none could escape their fate alone. They had to support each other, always maintaining the speediest possible contact.
Once the connection was established, Mike couldn't help but yell, "Damn it, Ling Beiming that guy has shown up here, are you just going to watch!?"
"Mike, don't get worked up, I also just got the news and am confirming it. Is he really heading your way?" the head of the Nanli Kingdom Martial Alliance spoke up.
This individual was trembling with worry, always assuming if Ling Fan were to cause trouble, he would be the first target. Unexpectedly, he seed to be aiming for Mike!
Ling Fan's movents were closely monitored by major forces around the world, especially by Huaxia. Even the surveillance perford on a country's president wasn't as intense.
The mont Ling Fan left Huaxia on a flight, various forces used different channels such as airport surveillance, hacking, and other ans to gather hazy image data and boarding information!
"Mike, don't panic. If necessary, find a place to hide. We're on our way!" the head of the Wuyou Country Martial Alliance spoke up reassuringly.
Others also spoke up, comforting Mike and promising not to stand idly by.
With these promises, Mike felt slightly more at ease.
"Hurry up, guys. I hope you're not just coming to collect my corpse!" Mike inhaled deeply, speaking solemnly.
"Hehe, don't worry. That guy actually dared to leave Huaxia; this ti, we're going to collect his corpse!" the head of the Wuyou Country Martial Alliance joked.
After the call, everyone set off, heading straight for the Laima Principality!
PS: Got stuck today; please forgive as I pushed the plot along for the whole day!
