Chapter 130 Danger Senses Off the Charts: That White-Clad Youth is Absolutely Dead!
The atmosphere at the port froze instantly.
Wang Qiang felt as if an invisible hand was tightly gripping his throat, making even breathing a luxury.
He wanted to raise his gun, retreat, or even beg for mercy, but his body wouldn't obey him at all. He could only stand frozen in place like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered, cold sweat pouring down his forehead like a waterfall, instantly soaking his back.
The dark red runes in Lu Sheng's palm grew brighter and brighter, and the all-consuming aura dimmed the surrounding light.
Just as Lu Sheng was about to clear the area...
"It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!!"
A panicked voice suddenly rang out from behind the convoy.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged, refined man dressed in a gray Zhongshan suit and wearing gold-rimmed glasses appeared in front of Wang Qiang as if by magic.
He didn't care about manners at all, grabbed Wang Qiang's shoulder as if he wanted to press Wang Qiang into the ground, and bowed deeply to Lu Sheng and Chen Yan, bending his waist to a ninety-degree angle.
"My name is Li Han, Vice President of the Spirit Source Association! My subordinates were ignorant and offended you, esteemed officers. It's all a misunderstanding!"
Li Han's face was all smiles, but the smile was so stiff it looked like it was painted on.
A fine layer of cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and behind his glasses, his narrow eyes held a deep, even terrified, expression.
While apologizing, he held down Wang Qiang, who was struggling, with such force that he almost crushed Wang Qiang's shoulder blade.
"Since he's Commander Zhang's senior brother, then we're family! This is all a misunderstanding, a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple!" Li Han spoke rapidly, as if afraid that a second's delay would lead to something terrible. "All supplies are free! All entrance fees are free! We'll leave now, without disturbing your reunion!"
Although Wang Qiang was suppressed, he was clearly still not quite ready to react.
He stared blankly at his usually gentle and composed vice president, who remained unfazed even in the face of a collapsing mountain, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Vice President! What are you doing? Our association has three Level 6 Spirit Source Users, are we afraid of these outsiders? That's supplies for tens of thousands of people! If we go back, how are we going to explain this to the president...?"
"Snapped!"
A crisp slap echoed through the harbor.
Li Han slapped Wang Qiang hard across the face, making the burly man spin around on the spot. Half of his face swelled up instantly, and two teeth flew out.
"Shut up!!"
Li Han growled, his voice trembling with urgency, his eyes fierce as if he wanted to devour someone, "Can't you see they're catching up? Say another word, and I'll cripple you right now!"
Wang Qiang covered his face, completely stunned by the beating.
He had never seen the vice president so out of control.
After delivering the slap, Li Han didn't dare look Lu Sheng in the eye. He simply cupped his hands again, his posture so humble it was almost groveling: "Gentlemen, I will definitely visit you another day to apologize! Farewell!"
Wang Qiang's group of subordinates, witnessing this scene, were dumbfounded: "Vice President..."
Li Han yelled at his still-dazed subordinates, "Deputy my ass! Don't you have any public spirit? Can't you see they're catching up? Get in the car! Let's go!"
After saying that, he dragged Wang Qiang along like a dead dog without saying another word.
Although the group of spiritual practitioners in the association were confused, seeing the vice president's ghostly appearance, they dared not ask any more questions and scrambled into the car.
"boom--!!"
The SUV roared to life, turned around, and sped out of the port at an even faster speed than it had come, disappearing in the blink of an eye at the end of the winding mountain road, leaving behind only a mess of dust.
Seeing this, Zhang Yi was stunned for several seconds before he came to his senses.
"This..." Zhang Yi scratched his head, looking both relieved and confused. "Li Han is usually like a smiling tiger, very cunning. Why is he so different today? So easy to talk to?"
He turned to Chen Yan and explained, "Senior brother, please excuse my poor appearance."
"The Spirit Source Association is the largest local civilian force. Its president is a mysterious level 6 expert. This Li Han is the vice president, also level 6. Although his combat strength is average, his abilities are said to be very special."
"They control most of the resources in Hanwu City. Even I have to give them some leeway. If it weren't for you guys here, we probably would have had to hand over these supplies."
Chen Yan frowned, staring in the direction the convoy had disappeared: "The situation at Twin Peaks is more complicated than I imagined. If we don't unite at a time like this, what's the point of forming an association? We're doomed sooner or later."
Lu Sheng withdrew the step he had taken, and the red light in his palm slowly dissipated.
He put his hands back in his pockets, a playful smile curving his lips.
"That vice president is interesting," Lu Sheng said casually. "He seems to have...seen something."
……
Meanwhile, inside an off-road vehicle speeding along a winding mountain road.
Wang Qiang covered his swollen cheek, his mouth filled with the taste of blood.
The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, until he finally snapped, "Vice President! What's wrong with you? When have we ever been treated like this?"
"Even if that pretty boy has some skills, with so many of us here, and you here too, what are we afraid of! If word gets out, where will our association put its face?"
"squeak--!!!"
A screeching sound of brakes rang out.
Li Han slammed on the brakes, bringing the SUV to a stop just off the edge of the cliff.
He was panting heavily, his whole body drenched in cold sweat as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
His hands trembled as he tried to reach for a cigarette from his pocket, but he couldn't even hold the lighter steady, and it fell to the floor mat with a "thud".
"You idiot..." Li Han turned his head, his face as pale as paper, his eyes filled with endless fear. "I just saved your life! No, I saved all of our lives!"
Wang Qiang was startled by his appearance: "Vice...Vice President?"
"You know my sequence is [Danger Perception], right?" Li Han swallowed hard, his voice terribly hoarse. "My eyes can see the dangerous aura emanating from everyone: white for safety, green for slight danger, blue for moderate danger, purple for danger, orange for high danger, red for extreme danger..."
He extended a trembling finger and gestured to the name: "That naval general, he has an orange aura around him. He is a ruthless character who has truly been on the battlefield and killed countless people. If we fight to the death, I have a 40% chance of surviving."
"but……"
Li Han's pupils contracted sharply, as if recalling some extremely terrifying scene, and his teeth were chattering.
"That boy in the white coat... he had no light about him."
"No light?" Wang Qiang was taken aback. "Isn't it white? That means there's no danger, right?"
"No!" Li Han grabbed Wang Qiang by the collar, pulled him close, and roared, "It's pitch black! Pure, all-consuming black! It's a color countless times more terrifying than red!"
"That's...absolute death!"
Li Han released his grip, slumped into his chair, and muttered to himself, "In his aura, I felt like I was standing on the edge of an abyss. If he were to lift a finger, none of us would survive even a second!"
"Quick! Drive! Go back and inform the guild leader! A true god has arrived in Hanwu City!!"
PS: Today's update (April 4th), four chapters totaling nearly 4 words, I have a terrible headache, so I won't split it into five chapters. Please forgive me, brothers. I'd really appreciate it if you could give the author a small free gift after reading; it would increase my meager income. Even 0.1 cents is a luxury for me. Please give me a reward, please urge me to update, please support me! Oh, our new book has been number two on the charts for several days, thank you everyone. Also, I'm really exasperated by these negative reviews. First they said the Dragon God Sequence wasn't powerful enough, now they're saying the protagonist is too strong and the story is boring. I'm really...***************f***ing you!
