Monsters

Almost at the same time Lu Xun stepped forward, the numerous spiders prowling around Chu Changqing swept out like lightning. Sharp spider legs swept across the deep red light, seemingly wanting to slice anyone approaching Chu Changqing into pieces!

In the eyes of Chu Changqing sitting in the wheelchair, the reflection of all this was clearly mirrored. However, under the confinement of the brush strokes, it was incredibly difficult for him to even raise his arm...

Chu Changqing shouted anxiously. Unfortunately, these spiders didn't seem to listen to his words, only instinctively wanting to kill all existences approaching Chu Changqing.

Boom——!!

Just at the instant the numerous sharp points were about to touch Lu Xun, a cluster of starlight exploded around Lu Xun's body. Like a surging river of stars, it directly sent all the spiders from all directions flying!

The lingering resonance of the river of stars flowed in the narrow room, like boiling magma from the deep space of the universe, incinerating all the spider webs filling every corner to nothingness. In a split second, the magnificent radiance made people unable to open their eyes.

Sparse lingering fire accompanied by shattered starlight fell profusely and disorderly in the room. Lu Xun's figure calmly shuttled through them, ultimately stopping his footsteps in front of Chu Changqing...

Chu Changqing sat in the wheelchair, blankly looking at the scene before him, unable to speak for a moment.

Chu Changqing personally cultivated these terrifying spiders. He originally only wanted to rely on the power of the spiders to stall the two university students, giving himself a chance to escape. But he hadn't expected these spiders to actually be savage to this extent, and furthermore, they did not listen to his orders...

What he hadn't expected even more was that these monsters, which appeared extremely ferocious in his eyes, actually had no power to resist at all in front of Lu Xun.

"Monsters, you're not the only one," Lu Xun spoke indifferently.

"The power that seems to symbolize disaster in your eyes might be able to help humanity from another angle... Even if one day Pandora's Box truly experiences Loss of Control, there will always be someone among us who can help you close it again."

Chu Changqing stared blankly at Lu Xun. After a long while, he looked at Su Zhiwei and Yang Xiao at the door again...

Su Zhiwei expressionlessly raised her foot, directly stomping and bursting the massive spider head beside her with one foot. Even the spider's body disintegrated inch by inch, disappearing into the air!

"Dr. Chu, it's normal to not be able to master abilities in the beginning... It will get better as time goes on," Yang Xiao gently spoke to comfort him.

Chu Changqing finally completely relaxed. His whole person lay back tiredly in the wheelchair, his eyes full of gratitude:

"Thank you... Thank you guys for running so far to save me."

Ever since being detained by the laboratory a few days ago, Chu Changqing hadn't had any personal freedom. Being abducted by Ying Fu was even more fraught with apprehension along the way. Only until this time was he truly liberated.

On one hand, Lu Xun and the others were originally his old acquaintances. On the other hand, everyone was a monster who obtained power from within The Red Star... Monsters only feel the most secure when staying together with monsters.

"We actually didn't do anything. Even if we didn't come, you could also save yourself." Lu Xun glanced outside the window. The atmosphere in the Meeting Immortal Guest House opposite was still hot.

"However, right now, we have to hurry and leave..."

Lu Xun gave Yang Xiao a look. The latter immediately understood. He directly raised his hand and beckoned toward the wheelchair under Chu Changqing, and the wheelchair wobbily hovered and floated up, giving Chu Changqing a jump.

But now was not the time to explain. The three directly brought Chu Changqing down from the third floor. The boss, who was currently anxious and uneasy behind the counter, seeing Lu Xun and the others truly appear bringing that wheelchair man, was slightly taken aback:

"Little Xun ah, is it all resolved? Then... what about those two people?"

"Maternal Uncle, I'll have someone handle the subsequent matters, but you must leave with us right now." Lu Xun's expression was incredibly serious.

Although they had rescued Chu Changqing, Ying Fu and the others would return to check sooner or later in a bit. After discovering the two university students dead in the room, they would inevitably seek out the boss to ask questions. At that time, his life or death would be unpredictable.

The boss's expression instantly turned deathly pale. However, he hesitated for a moment, still locking all the drawers under the cabinet before hurriedly leaving with the four people under the night sky...

...

Banquet scene.

The phone in Ying Fu's pocket vibrated slightly.

He frowned and immediately took out his phone. A message from Zheng Zhiqing met his eyes:

—We were stopped by someone at the door of the Meeting Immortal Guest House. It should be their manpower.

Ying Fu's expression was as cold as frost.

He did not reply, but calmly put his phone away.

Ying Fu was very clear in his heart that with the duo of Zheng Zhiqing stopped at the door, there was a high probability they could not be put to use... This was Bureau 749's banquet. Using brute force to violently charge was definitely not okay, otherwise it would attract the attention of the entire Bureau 749.

"Little Han ah, how come you're still absent-minded drinking a bit of wine... Do you have opinions about me ah?"

"Mister Sun is joking, it's truly that this Junior cannot hold his liquor... This..."

"Back in the day, your grandfather had more than this bit of alcohol capacity. Come! Keep drinking!"

"...Drink, I'll drink right now..."

"Aiya, Little Han ah, I suddenly remember, when you were little, it seems I even hugged you..."

"......"

Under someone's instigation, Sun Zhongliang had already had someone directly move Chancellor Han's table next to Sun Bumian. Only to see that Tang-suited youth currently holding a cup of Huiyuan juice, hugging Chancellor Han's neck, grinning as he crazily urged him to drink, a spitting image of wine field bullying.

At this time, Chancellor Han had already drunk until his face was flushed red. While forcing a smile, the bitter water in his heart had already turned upside down.

"Why aren't you eating? Do you not like it?"

Ying Qing's voice sounded from Ying Fu's side. Holding chopsticks, he pointed at the beef in front of Ying Fu that hadn't been touched for a bite. "If you're not eating, give it to me. Don't waste it. Wasting food gets you struck by lightning!"

Ying Fu: ...

Ying Fu suppressed the anger in his heart and expressionlessly handed all several plates of beef to Yao Qing.

Right now, all of Ying Fu's manpower was pinned down. Him wanting to mobilize himself was also unrealistic. One must know that the Chess Player opposite, Chen Ling, hadn't made a move until now. If Ying Fu wanted to mobilize himself, it was impossible for Chen Ling to sit by and watch him leave...

Moreover, with time dragged out for so long, it was estimated that Chen Ling had already succeeded.

Ying Fu actually understood at this time that although he won against Chen Ling in Shanghai and took away Chu Changqing, in this round of chess game gambling in Wushan, he still lost... And the final result was that Chu Changqing fell back into Chen Ling's hands again.

The song and dance on the Stage were magnificent and beautiful. Accompanied by the cheers and applause of the surrounding guests, the atmosphere of the entire banquet reached its highest point.

The silent Ying Fu appeared out of tune with the surroundings in the entire banquet.

At the same time,

The Tang-suited youth, who had been concentrating on eating and watching the song and dance performance opposite him from start to finish, slowly stood up.

He held a cup of beverage and slowly advanced along the edge of the banquet venue. His footsteps were light and casual, like an idle person going out to stroll and admire flowers, almost not attracting anyone's attention...

He finally stopped his footsteps in front of Ying Fu's table.
