Chapter 833: Chapter 833 Set Off
Shui Huilan was also stunned by this sudden change. It seed the ng Family had been prepared.
Fortunately, Qin Hao was there. In the instant those people opened fire, the Shadow Guards were already covered in chas, and together they released an energy shield.
The beams hit the shield without causing a ripple. This was the energy shield of a D-class cha; how could re laser guns penetrate it?
In a matter of seconds, the banquet hall was littered with dead and wounded, especially on the side of the Yan Family. Nearly half of them were dead, and the others only survived by fleeing to Shui Huilan’s side.
Seeing Qin Hao’s side, ng Gaoyuan’s face changed drastically: “chas? They have chas? How is that possible?”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh”
“Bang bang bang”
The ten or so Shadow Guards fired energy cannons, and the thunderous sound filled the banquet hall. ng Gaoyuan’s n fell in droves.
Then the sound of laser rotary guns followed, their firepower far superior to ng Family’s people.
ng Gaoyuan and ng Qinghui watched, wide-eyed, as their n fell one by one. Soon, the banquet hall was eerily quiet.
The Shadow Guards retracted the energy shield, and ng Gaoyuan looked at Qin Hao’s group in terror, a look of despair on his face. He had carefully planned this for a long ti, believing it to be flawless and undetected.
But he hadn’t accounted for the appearance of Qin Hao and his team, equipped with such high-level chas. Who were they?
What sort of person could arm their subordinates to this extent, if not soone from one of the top families of the Nolan Empire?
How could that little tramp Shui Huilan be acquainted with such a powerful figure?
The surviving people now looked at the carnage in the banquet hall with hearts pounding in fear. Had they not run over just now, they’d probably be dead too.
Qin Hao walked out slowly from the back, approaching ng Gaoyuan and his son.
“Thud”
ng Qinghui suddenly knelt on the ground.
Seeing this, ng Gaoyuan angrily cursed, “You fool, stand up! We’ve lost, and you think kneeling will make them spare you?”
ng Qinghui pleaded, “Dad, I don’t want to die. I want to live. Please, don’t kill . I’ll do anything you say.”
Qin Hao laughed disdainfully, “Where’s the confidence you had when you attacked earlier? A bit of spine might’ve earned you so respect.”
He didn’t deal with ng Gaoyuan and his son himself but left them for Shui Huilan, hoping she might still make use of them.
“I’m heading back now. You handle the rest,” he said to Shui Huilan.
Shui Huilan nodded slightly, “Okay.”
Qin Hao left with his n, but not before leaving two Shadow Guards with her to prevent any unexpected incidents.
…
That day, Guangyang City was in turmoil. ng Gaoyuan had attempted to kill the Shui Family and Yan Family heads, but his plan failed. The Yan Family head was killed, and the ng Family head was captured alive by Shui Huilan and then killed.
Both the ng Family and the Shui Family suffered heavy losses. Although their heads were dead, the families still had elders and successors, so their strength wasn’t significantly impaired, except the ng Family lost more dead soldiers.
However, the leaderless state caused chaos within the two families, with so trying to stabilize the situation and others vying for power.
Shui Huilan wouldn’t let such an opportunity slip by. She began to interfere in both families’ affairs discreetly, supporting two people to compete for the head positions.
This was an opportunity for the Shui Family, a chance to rise.
In about five days, with the help of the Shadow Guards, Shui Huilan had taken control of the ng and Yan Families, slowly eating away at their assets and power.
The Shui Family grew stronger in Guangyang City, with more and more people aligning themselves with it.
One bright morning,
Qin Hao woke up, finding Shui Huilan, Qingtao, and Li Jiaqi lying beside him.
Shui Huilan quickly awoke. She looked at Qin Hao, who was also looking at her.
Suddenly, Qin Hao spoke, “There’s nothing much left to do here. I’m planning to set off for Divine Wind Star with Luna and Jiao Rou. Later, you should move the Shui Family business towards the Lei ng Duchy, understood?”
Hearing his words, Shui Huilan was stunned, “Move towards the Lei ng Duchy? The business environnt there isn’t very good.”
Qin Hao replied, “The Southern Wilderness Star System has many undeveloped planets rich in resources. You can mine there. Take Qingtao and Jiaqi with you, and I’ll assign you ten Shadow Guards for protection.”
Although Shui Huilan didn’t understand Qin Hao’s intentions, she nodded, “Alright, I’ll start making arrangents in the next few days.”
“It’s better to take your closest people with you,” Qin Hao advised.
He didn’t explain his reasons, just expecting Shui Huilan to follow his instructions. The consequences of not doing so would be her responsibility.
Shui Huilan said, “Master, here are 60 billion star coins from the ng and Yan Families. You’ll need money on Divine Wind Star, and while this isn’t much, it should help you.”
Qin Hao nodded slightly, accepting the money without hesitation. He indeed needed money, though it might be more than enough.
In the morning, over breakfast, Qin Hao inford Luna, Jiao Rou, Li Jiaqi, and Qingtao about his plans.
Qingtao felt a bit sad. She had always wanted to be with Qin Hao, even if it ant facing death alongside him.
The journey to Divine Wind Star promised many unknown dangers.
Although Qin Hao initially hadn’t planned to take Luna and Jiao Rou, he realized the Elf Clan princesses wouldn’t trust him otherwise.
After detailing his plans, Qin Hao left ten Shadow Guards with Shui Huilan.
Shui Huilan and her group escorted Qin Hao to the passenger spaceship in Guangyang City. The ship wasn’t going directly to Divine Wind Star but was heading in that direction, requiring several transfers of space vessels.
The passenger spaceship was massive, about ten stories high, and incredibly fast, a unified Nolan Empire transportation, comparable to D-class battleships in speed.
Shui Huilan had purchased the tickets. Qin Hao and his companions found their first-class suites, which were adjacent to several other first-class suites. Opening the doors, they were greeted by a luxurious interior, comparable to top-star hotels.
The first-class suite was on two levels, with many rooms inside. Qin Hao, Luna, and Jiao Rou went to the rooms on the second floor.
Opening the door, they saw the bed, sofa, monitor, and large floor-to-ceiling windows offering a panoramic view of the starry sky.
