30: Chapter 30 Horrifying Skill
They claimed they were here to get a piece of the pie, but the group sent by Old Master Xiao were clearly more like professional assassins, and far more unscrupulous than the ones she had encountered before.
Although these people could protect Xiao Sinian, Qi Yin and Lu Yanxiu still prepared to meet them head-on.
Her eyes turned cold as she grabbed the car keys and started the G60 she had driven before.
The engine roared as it sped toward the mountainside.
The car sped along the narrow mountain road, and soon met the oncoming off-road vehicle head-on.
The other party had no intention of slowing down at all, and even attempted to crash directly into them.
Lu Yanxiu yanked the steering wheel, and the car performed a thrilling drift, grazing past the other vehicle.
At the same time, Qi Yin rolled down the window and extended her left hand.
The water mist in the air instantly gathered an intense chill, and several sharp ice cones formed in front of her palm in an instant.
With a piercing sound of breaking air, they slammed fiercely into the tires and windshield of the first enemy vehicle.
Only a soft "pfft" was heard, followed simultaneously by the deafening sound of the tires bursting and the glass shattering.
The vehicle instantly lost control and slammed hard into the mountain wall, billowing with thick white smoke.
The second vehicle narrowly avoided the wreckage, and the assassin inside poked a gun out of the window.
Just as Qi Yin was about to make a move, Lu Yanxiu hurriedly stopped her.
"Let me handle this."
His voice was filled with intense excitement.
Seeing him so eager, Qi Yin had no choice but to turn her attention to the vehicles behind.
For a moment, flames and ice cones flew everywhere, attacking the assassins relentlessly as if they were free of charge.
In the end, one of these two cars exploded while the other was frozen solid, sending the assassins still trapped inside plunging off the cliff.
The road block was cleared, giving the two vehicles behind a chance to rush up.
However, Qi Yin was like a roadblock tiger; focusing her mind, the sound of freezing crackled across the road surface.
The hood of the opposing vehicle was covered in a thick layer of ice at a speed visible to the naked eye, and even the radiator grille was frozen shut.
White, frigid air spilled out from the gaps, and the assassins inside the car looked at the two relaxed people ahead with terror on their faces.
"What kind of monsters are they?!"
Accompanied by their screams, the engine died instantly, the vehicle lost power, slid forward futilely for a distance, and finally stalled in the middle of the road.
With the arrow already on the string, they had no choice but to fire. The assassins in the car cursed as they pushed open the doors and got out, with about a dozen people attempting to surround Qi Yin and Lu Yanxiu.
Qi Yin and Lu Yanxiu also got out of the car; this time, they didn't use their Supernatural Ability.
Lu Yanxiu was responsible for cover, while Qi Yin held the dragon-patterned tang saber that Xiao Sinian had given her.
Her expression was extremely cold; it was the perfect time to test this new blade today.
The battle ended very quickly.
Although these assassins looked fierce, they were almost defenseless before her enhanced strength and speed, combined with this new tang saber.
The bright blade flashed a few times, and several corpses were added to the ground.
Qi Yin shook off the blood droplets on her body, breathing slightly heavily.
Continuously using her Supernatural Ability and engaging in intense physical activity was a significant drain on her mental and physical stamina.
However, she faintly felt her body heating up, and her lower abdomen felt slightly bloated; she had a vague feeling of a breakthrough.
Just as she was thinking about this, Xiao Sinian and his group came down from the mountain.
Looking at the mess all over the ground and Qi Yin and Lu Yanxiu standing in a pool of blood, Mu Feng gasped inwardly.
Could it be that he was wrong before? This woman was truly not simple.
Whether it was that strange ice-freezing technique or her clean and efficient combat skills, he had only ever seen them in one person.
At this moment, Qi Yin's terrifying combat skills had completely changed the other five people's perception of her.
Xiao Sinian's gaze fell upon the still-dripping tang saber in Qi Yin's hand, and then on the car that was completely frozen solid and still emitting white smoke. His eyes grew deep, and his palms gradually clenched tight.
She had awakened a new Supernatural Ability!
Lu Yanxiu's Supernatural Ability had also been obtained because he benefited from her.
His fiancée really had quite a few secrets.
With corpses strewn across the ground, Qi Yin put away her tang saber and glanced at him.
"Do these need to be disposed of?"
If they did, she could just throw them all into her space to use as fertilizer.
But Xiao Sinian just waved his hand: "No need. They won't be needed very soon, right?"
Their eyes met, both understanding what the other meant.
That was true; in two days, the Apocalypse would arrive, and that blood rain would corrode all these corpses into nothing.
Qi Yin turned around, got into her car, bypassed the group, and drove away.
Xiao Sinian remained where he was, looking at the spectacular sight of the freezing and the corpses on the ground that had been killed with a single blow. The corners of his mouth beneath his mask seemed to twitch.
"Yan Xiu, follow her well from now on. Come by my side when you have time."
Lu Yanxiu seemed a bit troubled: "But Boss, you also know that Yin Yin is my sister, and she is very important to me. I don't want to be a spy."
Xiao Sinian rolled his eyes at him: "What kind of nonsense are you spouting? By following her, your Supernatural Ability will improve faster. Having an extra assistant by her side makes her safer, doesn't it?"
Only then did Lu Yanxiu understand, and he quickly agreed.
As for Xiao Sinian, he had plenty of talented people around him; missing one more didn't matter.
Immediately after, Xiao Sinian's expression darkened as he looked at Mu Feng and the other five.
"How long have you been with me? You know my rules. Qi Yin is another me. Do you understand?"
They said in unison: "Understood, Boss."
"Especially you, Mu Feng. I don't want to see a repeat of today's incident."
Mu Feng lowered his head, feeling the wound on his face still throbbing with pain: "Yes!"
"Alright, since the Old Master is so ungrateful and wants to snatch things from me, I might as well find some amusement for him while I'm idle."
Thus, Old Master Xiao, who had been waiting in vain for news of Xiao Sinian's death, suffered another loss after the shell company Xiao Conglomerate: the Xiao family's old mansion, which he regarded as his own life and was worth billions.
...
Old Master Xiao was busy enough with his own troubles, and The Qi Family was in dire straits as well.
At this moment, at The Qi Family villa.
A person in black wearing a cloak and a full-face mask suddenly appeared.
Qi Mingyuan and the others, who were usually arrogant and overbearing, were kneeling on the ground, shivering like little chicks.
"Bang!"
A gunshot exploded at Qi Mingyuan's feet, startling him. Lu Yingman had long since fainted from fear, while Wang Hui was shivering in Qi Ming's arms.
The mechanical voice of the person in black, distorted by a voice changer, rang out in the spacious living room.
"Last time, I told you to capture someone, and they ran away right under your noses."
"This time, you were supposed to buy a mine, and you still managed to mess that up. Just how useless are you? Hmm?"
The sense of oppression was extremely strong, and none of them dared to look up.
Even so, Qi Mingyuan began his own excuses.
"M-Master, the matter of capturing the person was intercepted by someone else; we don't know what happened either."
"However, I have already discovered Chen Jun's whereabouts, and my men are making contact. Rest assured, I will definitely bring the person back for you."
Immediately after, as if Qi Mingyuan had suddenly thought of something, he crawled over and grabbed the leg of the person in black's trousers.
"This time, this matter with the mine, it can't be blamed on us. It was Qi Yin, it was Qi Yin and Xiao Sinian who set a trap for us."
Mentioning Qi Yin, the hatred in Qi Mingyuan's eyes was about to explode.
If it weren't for Qi Yin, he wouldn't have spent so much money buying an empty mountain.
The Master wouldn't have withheld their funding because of it, which caused him to mortgage all the shares and assets he had on hand.
Now, their Qi Family really had nothing left.
His excuse seemed to pique the interest of the person in black, who kicked him away and toyed with the pistol.
The mechanical voice carried a hint of subtle resentment.
"Qi Yin? Xiao Sinian?"
