I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"Young Master Kun, something seems wrong. Should I protect you and we retreat first?"

"Just in case, you can't get hurt!"

Tong Shu panicked. Jin Xiao and Meiniang couldn't beat Qin Ge, and he lost his confidence.

Whether this trip to the East China Sea will succeed is Huo Changkun's problem, but if something happens to Huo Changkun, then it will be his problem!

However, none of these are the main points. The main point is that Tong Shu himself doesn't want to die because of Qin Ge!

"What a load of rubbish!"

"I don't believe he could kill all of them, especially with you around."

"Don't you even have the confidence to defeat him, or even protect yourself?"

"boom--"

Huo Changkun raised his hand and shot the underling who came in to report dead. "This bastard must be a coward who ran in here to lie about the situation!"

"How could so many experts all be dead? I brought half of the Huo family's wealth this time, how could they all be lost to Qin Ge alone?"

"Only half?" Qin Ge's voice came from the direction of the door, followed by his figure, holding a long sword, his body covered in blood, like a god of death.

Huo Changkun, Tong Shu, and the others were all startled and turned to look, their hearts pounding.

"How...how did you get in?!"

Huo Changkun said he wasn't afraid, but his body betrayed him by taking a few steps back.

"Of course you walked in. If you don't want to use your eyes anymore, you can donate them!"

"Blind in heart and blind in eyes, I really don't know what Huo Qianjue sent such a piece of trash like you to the East China Sea for!"

Qin Ge glanced around the hall and then fixed his gaze on Gu Caiwei.

Seeing that she was unharmed, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally making it in time.

Tong Shu subconsciously stepped forward to block Huo Changkun, but then suddenly remembered something and turned around to stand next to Gu Caiwei.

He now held a gleaming dagger to Gu Caiwei's neck. "Qin Ge, if you take another step, I'll kill her!"

"You came here to save her, didn't you?"

"I never would have guessed this woman was so important to you!"

"Let's discuss the terms!"

Gu Caiwei burst into tears, her lips parted slightly, but she could not utter a word.

She paid no attention to Tong Shu's presence, nor to the dagger pressed against her throat; her eyes were only on Qin Ge.

Gu Caiwei didn't know how Qin Ge got here, nor what he had gone through outside. She knew he had come and risked his life for her.

"Who said I came to save her?" Qin Ge paused slightly, but didn't stop. "Gu Caiwei is my woman. If you touch her, you're slapping me in the face!"

"I'm only here to save face; I don't really care whether she lives or dies!"

"Kill her if you want, I'll avenge her anyway. You'll only suffer a worse death, a death you can't even bear!"

"If you don't believe me, you're welcome to try it!"

"Do you think I'm that easy to fool?" Tong Shu applied a little force, and Gu Caiwei's delicate skin was instantly cut by the dagger, and blood seeped out.

Tong Shu was uncertain. Based on his investigation of Qin Ge, Qin Ge was among the wealthy and powerful people he associated with in Donghai, and Gu Caiwei was really not much of a threat.

Qin Ge had been watching Gu Caiwei closely. Upon seeing this, his heart tightened and he stopped in his tracks.

By the time he realized his mistake, it was too late.

In this situation, it's all about mentality; it's about who shows weakness first and who is still too young.

"You almost fooled me!" Tong Shu smiled smugly. "I knew it! If you really didn't care, why would you have come here alone!"

"Even someone my age can't help but want to cherish this delicate beauty, how could you possibly bear to!"

"Enough with the nonsense!" Qin Ge pointed his sword at Tong Shu, his eyes flashing with a cold light. "Release him, and take Huo Changkun with you and get out of here!"

"Qin Ge, don't worry about me!" Gu Caiwei, moved but regaining her composure, said, "This old man is very capable, you should leave quickly!"

"I'm already so glad you came, you should go now!"

She didn't want to be a burden, didn't want to kill Qin Ge, and even wanted to commit suicide. She offered her neck to the dagger, but her body couldn't move.

"How did you get in here?" Huo Changkun pointed his gun at Qin Ge. He still couldn't believe that so many experts couldn't stop Qin Ge alone.

But why did Qin Ge come in alone, while none of the many people outside showed up?

"Dead!" Qin Ge said calmly. "They called themselves the Three Ghosts or the King of Hell, which sound impressive, but they're completely useless."

"Impossible!" Huo Changkun still couldn't believe it, but his hand holding the gun trembled slightly.

"Believe it or not!" Qin Ge turned to look at Huo Changkun, his eyes narrowed, and he had an idea in mind.

Tong Shu saw through Qin Ge's intentions and immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

"He's right!" Just as Qin Ge was about to take down Huo Changkun, a deep, hoarse voice rang out.

An old man dressed in a black brocade robe appeared. His face was expressionless, but his old eyes revealed a sinister look.

"Mr. Qu!"

Huo Changkun and Tong Shu spoke almost simultaneously, their voices filled with excitement and respect.

This old man was named Qu He, one of Huo Qianjue's right-hand men. To Huo Qianjue, he was even more important than his son, Huo Changkun!

Huo Changkun, Tong Shu and the others knew that Qu He had come to Donghai, but no one had seen him or knew where he was.

Qu He nodded slightly, walked slowly towards Huo Changkun, and reached out to press the gun down from Huo Changkun's hand. "Put it away, this thing is useless to him."

He looked at Qin Ge, his eyes showing no contempt. "Mr. Qin, you are so young yet so skilled, managing to kill so many of our experts!"

"Mr. Huo values ​​talent and wishes to join forces with you to achieve great things!"

He glanced at Gu Caiwei, "As long as you nod, not only will a mere woman be yours, but the entire East China Sea will be yours in the future!"

"Oh?" Qin Ge asked with interest, "Hasn't Huo Qian always longed to return to the East China Sea?"

"What do you mean by 'East Sea is mine'? Does that mean I'm the boss and he's the second-in-command?"

"Shouldn't he come over and offer me, the boss, tea first?"

Qu He's gaze sharpened slightly. "Given Mr. Huo's magnanimity and vision, his ambitions have never been limited to just the small East China Sea!"

"Returning to the East China Sea is just the first step in the plan!"

He paused, then said, "Mr. Qin, with your abilities, it's a huge waste of your talent to be ranked below those good-for-nothings like the Xia and Han families!"

"As long as you agree to join forces with Mr. Huo, everything the Xia and Han families possess now will eventually be ours!"

"It's not impossible for the Huo family to compete with, or even crush, the top wealthy families in Beidu in the future!"

"As I said, Mr. Huo values ​​talent, and you will surely be given an important position, second only to me, with unlimited potential!"

Qin Ge looked disgusted. "Are you saying that not only am I not the boss, but my status is also below Huo Qianjue, or even below you?"

"I'm not having that idea!"

"Are you stronger than me?"

He pretended to ponder for a moment, then said, "How about this, you fight me. If you win, I might consider your suggestion."

"If you lose, there's no reason why you should be in a higher position than me, right?"
