He was so persuasive that he actually practiced extraordinary

"We haven't decided yet. Do you have any recommendations?" Shui Qingli asked in return.

“If you don’t mind, you can stay at my house,” Zhang Beixing suggested. “I have plenty of empty rooms, and it’s very convenient.”

Shui Qingli and Shui Lili exchanged a smile, then nodded. "Okay, then I'll trouble you."

The car quickly arrived at Zhangbei Xingjia. After helping them settle in, he took them to a nearby restaurant for a meal.

"The food here is so delicious!" Shui Lili exclaimed as she ate.

“Yes, the chef at this restaurant is indeed very skilled,” Zhang Beixing replied.

After dinner, they returned home. Zhang Beixing arranged rooms for them and then sat with them in the living room chatting.

"What are your plans for coming to the Kyushu Empire this time?" Zhang Beixing asked.

“We’re mainly here to relax, so we don’t have any specific plans,” Shui Qingli replied. “However, we’ve heard that there are many fun places in the Kyushu Empire, and we’d like to check them out.”

“No problem, I can take you there,” Zhang Beixing said. “I happen to be free these few days, so I can show you around.”

Over the next few days, Zhang Beixing took Shui Qingli and Shui Lili to visit various attractions in the Kyushu Empire. They visited historic museums, admired exquisite works of art, strolled through picturesque parks, and appreciated the beauty of nature. They also explored bustling commercial streets and sampled a variety of delicacies.

During this time, their friendship deepened. Shui Qingli and Shui Lili both liked Zhang Beixing, a warm, cheerful, and thoughtful boy, while Zhang Beixing was also attracted by their beauty and kindness.

However, good times always fly by. Soon, Shui Qingli and Shui Lili would be leaving the Kyushu Empire. On the eve of their departure, Zhang Beixing hosted a small farewell party for them at his home.

"Thank you so much for your company during this time," Zhang Beixing said, raising his glass. "I hope we'll have the chance to meet again in the future."

“We are very grateful to you as well,” Shui Qingli replied. “This trip has given us many wonderful memories.”

The group clinked glasses to celebrate the wonderful time. After the party, Shui Qingli and Shui Lili returned to their room to pack their luggage. Zhang Beixing sat alone in the living room, reminiscing about the past few days.

The next morning, Zhang Beixing saw Shui Qingli and Shui Lili off to the airport. At the security checkpoint, they hugged tightly and waved goodbye. "Goodbye, Zhang Beixing," Shui Qingli said. "I hope we can meet again soon."

"We definitely will," Zhang Beixing replied. "You all must take good care of yourselves and be careful."

Time flies, and several months have passed. Zhang Beixing suddenly received a phone call from an unknown number.

"Hello, is this Zhang Beixing?" A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

“It’s me. And who are you?” Zhang Beixing asked, puzzled.

"I am Shui Lili, do you remember me?" Shui Lili said with a smile.

"Of course I remember. Why did you suddenly think of calling me?" Zhang Beixing asked in surprise.

“We’re planning to visit the Kyushu Empire for a few more days. We were wondering if you’d be free to come with us?” Shui Lili explained.

"Of course I'm free!" Zhang Beixing said excitedly. "When are you arriving? I'll come pick you up."

Shui Lili and Shui Qingli were taken to Zhu Xiaoling's place, where Zhu Xiaoling prepared a large and sumptuous meal.

"Shui Qingli, would you like to drink some water to soothe your throat?" Zhu Xiaoling asked with concern.

"No need, I've already had some," Shui Qingli replied.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Beixing couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, since he hadn't seen Shui Qingli drink water just now.

However, he didn't ask any further questions, since it was Shui Qingli's personal matter.

Afterwards, the group sat together, enjoying the delicious food and chatting happily.

Zhu Xiaoling and Shui Lili kept putting food into Shui Qingli's bowl, which warmed Shui Qingli's heart and moved her deeply.

At this moment, Zhu Xiaoling suddenly thought of a question: "By the way, now that you're here, who will take care of the affairs in Lin Kingdom?"

“Our family has designated people to handle these matters, so we don’t need to worry about it,” Shui Qingli explained.

Then, the group continued chatting, and the atmosphere was fairly harmonious.

However, they did not notice that the three thugs who had been beaten down by Zhang Beixing earlier had left the hotel and even made a phone call.

A short while later, a car sped up, and five people got out and went straight to the table where Zhang Beixing, Shui Qingli, and the others were sitting.

"Are you Mr. Zhang Beixing?" the leading man asked.

“That’s me,” Zhang Beixing replied.

"Hello, we are agents for underground boxing. We heard you defeated the underground boxing champion Wild Boar and would like to invite you to participate in an underground boxing match," the man said.

"Sorry, I'm not interested." Zhang Beixing refused without hesitation.

He had no desire to participate in any underground boxing matches; those were fights where you had to risk your life.

“Mr. Fang, we know you are exceptionally skilled, but we offer a very generous reward. You can earn one million just for playing one match,” the man tried to tempt him.

“I told you, I won’t go,” Zhang Beixing said firmly again.

The man didn't seem to be giving up: "Since Mr. Fang isn't interested, then we'll take our leave."

With that, the man prepared to leave.

But at that moment, Zhang Beixing keenly sensed a murderous aura rushing towards him.

He immediately realized the situation was bad, grabbed Shui Qingli and pulled her into his arms, rolling away to dodge a flying bullet.

"Watch out!" Zhang Beixing shouted.

No sooner had she finished speaking than another burst of gunfire rang out, and Zhu Xiaoling and Long Xiyue were so frightened that they quickly lay down on the ground.

The five men sneered and pulled out their pistols, ready to continue firing.

Unbeknownst to them, Zhang Beixing had swiftly pulled a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at them.

"You're under arrest!" Zhang Beixing shouted.

The five men were stunned; they hadn't expected Zhang Beixing to have a gun.

But they quickly realized what was happening and tried to escape.

However, it was too late; Zhang Beixing had already pulled the trigger.

"Bang bang bang!" Several gunshots rang out, and the five men fell to the ground.

The entire restaurant was thrown into chaos as people fled in panic.

"Don't be afraid, everyone lie down!" Zhang Beixing shouted, reassuring the others while cautiously observing the surroundings.

Fortunately, the bullets did not injure anyone else; they only hit the ground and the dining table.

Soon, the police arrived at the scene and took Zhang Beixing, Shui Qingli, and others to the police station to give statements.

An investigation revealed that the men were indeed members of an underground boxing ring. They were seeking revenge after Zhang Beixing refused their invitation to participate in a match.

Fortunately, Zhang Beixing reacted quickly; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

It was late at night when I left the police station.

Zhang Beixing drove Shui Qingli and the others back to their hotel.

"Thank you so much for today. We might have been in danger if it weren't for you," Shui Qingli said gratefully.

"You're welcome. Protecting you is my duty," Zhang Beixing said.

Shui Lili also expressed her gratitude to Zhang Beixing before returning to her room.

Zhu Xiaoling and Long Xiyue also went back to their room.

Back in the room, Zhu Xiaoling couldn't help but ask Shui Qingli why she hadn't drunk any water earlier.

However, Shui Qingli was unwilling to elaborate, only stating that there was a reason. Seeing this, Zhu Xiaoling had no choice but to give up, as this was Shui Qingli's personal privacy.

The next morning, Zhang Beixing received a phone call from the agent of the underground boxing ring.

"Mr. Fang, we truly admire your skills, so we are willing to offer a reward of ten million to invite you to participate in the underground boxing match," the man tempted again.

“I’ve already said I won’t go,” Zhang Beixing firmly refused again.

"Since Mr. Fang refuses to go, we'll have to resort to some extreme measures," the man threatened.

Zhang Beixing immediately realized that these underground boxing fighters were forcing him to participate in the competition.

But he was not afraid; he believed he had the ability to defeat these underground boxers.

So he hung up the phone and prepared to go find Shui Qingli and others to discuss countermeasures.

However, when he arrived at Shui Qingli and the others' room, he found it empty.

Zhang Beixing found it very strange; where had they gone?
Just then, the phone rang. It was Zhu Xiaoling calling.

"Hey, Xiaoling, where are you guys?" Zhang Beixing asked.

"We're leaving the Nine Provinces Empire, so I'm calling to say goodbye," Zhu Xiaoling said on the other end of the phone.

"What? You're leaving already?" Zhang Beixing was very surprised.

“Yes, we still have some things to take care of, so we can’t stay here any longer,” Zhu Xiaoling explained.

“Alright, I’ll take you to the airport then,” Zhang Beixing said.

A short while later, Zhang Beixing drove to the hotel entrance and picked up Zhu Xiaoling and her group.

"Why did you suddenly decide to leave?" Zhang Beixing couldn't help but ask.

"Actually, it was a last-minute decision. We felt there was nothing left to do here," Shui Qingli replied.

“Alright, I’ll still take you to the airport,” Zhang Beixing said again.

Along the way, Zhang Beixing told Shui Qingli and the others about all the recent events.

After listening, Shui Qingli pondered for a moment and said, "I don't think this is that simple. Those black market boxers are clearly trying to force you to take action."

“I know, but I’m not afraid,” Zhang Beixing said confidently.

“I know you’re capable, but I still don’t want you to take any risks,” Shui Qingli said with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, I will be more careful," Zhang Beixing replied.

Soon, the car arrived at the airport.

Zhang Beixing escorted them to the boarding gate and said goodbye to Shui Qingli and the others.

"Goodbye, Zhang Beixing. We'll definitely meet again next time," Zhu Xiaoling, Shui Qingli, and the others said in unison.

"Goodbye, and I hope you'll still be just as beautiful and charming when we meet again," Zhang Beixing said with a smile.

Then, Zhu Xiaoling and the others boarded the plane.

Zhang Beixing watched the plane take off, then drove away from the airport.

After returning home, Zhang Beixing began preparing for matters related to the underground boxing match.

Although he didn't plan to participate in the competition, he didn't want those underground boxers to get too arrogant.

So he began to study various tactics and techniques, intending to teach them a lesson later.

Soon, the day of the competition arrived.

When Zhang Beixing arrived at the competition venue, he found the stands packed, indicating that the match was highly anticipated.

Zhang Beixing did not enter the players' passage, but went to the audience seats and found a seat.

The main character of this match was not him, but a fighter named "Iron Fist".

It is said that Iron Fist is a very skilled underground boxer who has defeated many top fighters in matches.

Soon, the game started.

Zhang Beixing wasn't fully focused on the game; instead, he was pondering his own plan.

After a while, Zhang Beixing suddenly noticed that there was a suspicious man in the audience.

The man kept staring at him, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

Zhang Beixing immediately realized that something was wrong; this person was likely there to assassinate him.

He observed the man discreetly and noticed that the man seemed to be holding a dagger.

Zhang Beixing couldn't help but shudder; this man's target was clearly him.

But he wasn't afraid; he believed he had the ability to defeat the assassin.

So he prepared to take action.

However, at that moment, something went wrong on the field.

Iron Fist was knocked to the ground by his opponent, who then went up on stage to collect his prize money.

The audience erupted in cheers; they never expected that this nobody would defeat Iron Fist.

But Zhang Beixing had no interest in winning or losing the game; he was preoccupied with his own affairs.

He realized the assassin was about to make his move, and a dagger was thrust towards him.

But Zhang Beixing was prepared; he leaped away and dodged the blow.

Then, he kicked the assassin, sending him flying off the stage.

The audience was immediately panicked; they hadn't expected this to happen.

But Zhang Beixing was not afraid. He stepped down from the audience and intended to catch the killer.

But when he got to the assassin, he found that the assassin was already dead.

The man appeared to have been injured when he was kicked off the stands and is now on the verge of death.

Zhang Beixing couldn't help but wonder, who exactly sent this assassin?
He recalled the phone call from the underground boxing agent earlier; these people didn't seem to want Zhang Beixing to participate in the fight.

Could it be an assassin sent by this underground boxing organization?
But why did they kill him?

Zhang Beixing was completely baffled, but the most important thing right now was to call the police.

So he dialed the police and told them that a murder had occurred.

Soon, the police arrived at the scene and took Zhang Beixing to the police station to give a statement.

At the police station, Zhang Beixing told the police everything he had seen and experienced.

The police believed Zhang Beixing's words without a doubt, after all, the assassin was indeed defeated by Zhang Beixing when he tried to assassinate him.

The police also told Zhang Beixing that they had sent people to investigate the killer and believed they would have results soon.

After leaving the police station, Zhang Beixing felt a sense of relief.

He knew he had done the right thing; he had protected himself and others.

However, this matter did not end there; he still needed to keep a close eye on the subsequent activities of this underground boxing organization. (End of Chapter)
