Chapter 66: One Punch to Send Someone Flying

    “Eh? It’s you!”

    Wang Jianlai immediately recognized Chu Chu.

    Seeing Chu Chu, Wang Jianlai’s eyes lit up, and his mood improved.

    He had always liked talented juniors.

    “Deputy Commander Wang, this little girl is Chu Chu!” Lin Xue said with a smile on her face.

    But her gaze carried a hint of coldness.

    She had seen Chu Chu’s photo and naturally recognized her at a glance.

    She planned to interrogate this girl thoroughly later to find out what had happened.

    “Uh… she’s Chu Chu?” Wang Jianlai was a little surprised.

    He recognized Chu Chu but didn’t know her name.

    He hadn’t expected this little girl with such high combat talent to be a refugee. But that didn’t matter. As long as someone had talent, he admired them.

    “Deputy Commander Wang, she is definitely Chu Chu,” Lin Xue said with the same smile.

    At this moment, her gaze shifted to Qin Feng, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

    After her initial amazement, Lin Xue’s gaze turned cold again.

    Moreover, when she thought about how these siblings were connected to her nephew’s life and death, her feelings turned sour.

    Up to this point, Lin Xue hadn’t fully suspected the siblings.

    She just believed that Lin Xuyang’s disappearance had something to do with them.

    “Miss Lin, you’ve met Chu Chu now. If you have anything to ask, just go ahead…” Wang Jianlai said warmly.

    Hearing this, Chu Chu was slightly stunned.

    Qin Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.

    He had noticed something.

    This woman’s surname was Lin.

    It seemed that someone from the Lin family had come looking for them.

    “Little girl, I have some questions for you. Come with me!” Lin Xue said with a smile.

    But her words carried no sense of consultation; instead, they had an air of command.

    “Who are you?” Chu Chu frowned. “I don’t even know you. Why should I go with you?”

    “Chu Chu, this is Miss Lin Xue from the Lin family in this city. The Lin family is a prominent clan in Yunyang Base City. If Miss Lin is looking for you, it must be for something important. Don’t be disrespectful,” Wang Jianlai said kindly, trying to remind Chu Chu.

    He was worried that Chu Chu, unaware of Lin Xue’s background, might accidentally offend the Lin family, which would be troublesome.

    Thus, he deliberately revealed Lin Xue’s identity to warn Chu Chu.

    Upon hearing this, a trace of panic flashed in Chu Chu’s eyes.

    Qin Feng remained calm. He gently patted the little girl on the shoulder, signaling her not to be afraid.

    “If you have something to say, just ask here. My sister won’t be going with you,” Qin Feng said casually, his tone neither cold nor warm.

    “Uh…”

    Wang Jianlai was momentarily stunned and glanced at Qin Feng with a strange expression, but he said nothing more.

    Lin Xue frowned slightly.

    Of course, she wouldn’t ask her questions here.

    The things Lin Xuyang had done couldn’t be revealed publicly.

    “Where is Commander Liu? I want to meet her!” Lin Xue asked nonchalantly.

    Her thought was that, regardless of Chu Chu’s willingness, as long as Liu Yan agreed, she would forcibly take Chu Chu away.

    “The Commander is currently in seclusion and cannot meet guests,” Qin Feng replied indifferently.

    Lin Xue frowned again.

    Wang Jianlai quickly smiled and said, “Miss Lin, why don’t you come back another day? Or you could just ask Chu Chu here.”

    “Deputy Commander Wang, what I need to ask is highly confidential, and this place is not suitable!” Lin Xue’s tone started to show impatience.

    “Chu Chu, come with me!” Lin Xue’s tone turned harsh.

    Then, she looked at Wang Jianlai and added, “Deputy Commander Wang, please let Commander Liu know. I’m taking this girl with me today. I’ll return her in two days!”

    “Uh…” Wang Jianlai was at a loss. “Well… our Commander hasn’t agreed. Taking her like this isn’t appropriate, is it?”

    “What’s the problem?” Lin Xue said dismissively. “She’s just a refugee girl. If Commander Liu has an issue, she can come to the Lin family for her!”

    At this moment, Lin Xue’s patience ran out, and her tone turned firm.

    As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped forward and reached out to grab Chu Chu.

    In an instant, her hand reached toward Chu Chu’s collar.

    Wang Jianlai hesitated about whether to intervene.

    But then, the situation suddenly changed.

    “Scram!”

    A furious roar erupted as Qin Feng acted.

    With a casual punch, he sent Lin Xue flying.

    Lin Xue crashed heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

    The scene left Wang Jianlai dumbfounded.

    Wang Jianlai was utterly shocked.

    So young and already a late-stage one-star Fire Elementalist—he was on par with Wang Jianlai himself.

    What Wang Jianlai didn’t know was that the power Qin Feng had just displayed wasn’t even a tenth of his true strength.

    Meanwhile, Lin Xue climbed up from the ground in disarray.

    She looked at Qin Feng with fear.

    Lin Xue seemed to realize something, and her face turned pale.

    Without saying another word, she turned and left.

    “Miss Lin… Hey… Miss Lin…”

    Lin Xue’s sudden departure left Wang Jianlai at a loss.

    He called out to her a few times, but she ignored him completely.

    In no time, Lin Xue disappeared into the distance.

    She had to report this news to her cousin as soon as possible.

    “Brother…” Chu Chu looked up at Qin Feng.

    Her big eyes shimmered with unease.

    But Qin Feng had a smile on his face.

    This was the effect he wanted and everything was within his calculations.

    The Lin family would soon have a headache.

    “Little girl, don’t worry!” Qin Feng gently patted Chu Chu’s shoulder.

    At this moment, Wang Jianlai looked at Qin Feng with a complex expression.

    After hesitating for a moment, he said, “Young man, you should take Chu Chu and leave this place quickly! The Lin family isn’t easy to deal with. I reckon they’ll be back with reinforcements soon.”

    After saying this, he sighed and left.

    This was all he could do to help. S~ea??h the N?vel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
