Chapter 749 Surprise
Unlike the warm and bright residential area upstairs, the parking lot at night seemed exceptionally empty and quiet. The overhead lights seemed to be malfunctioning, emitting a faint "buzzing" sound, and the light flickered, casting swaying, illusory spots on the ground.

The air was filled with a damp smell, a mixture of gasoline and dust.

The surroundings were completely silent, with only the faint echo of his own footsteps in the empty space, carrying an indescribable eeriness and sinister feeling.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be terrified in such an environment.

But Qin Luoyi is highly skilled and daring; what kind of scene hasn't he seen?

He didn't take these minor anomalies to heart, assuming they were just issues with the facilities in the old neighborhood.

Guided by memory, he walked towards the direction where he had parked his Koenigsegg. Even in the dim light, the silver sports car still exuded a low-key yet luxurious glow.

He took out his car keys, unlocked the door, and got into the driver's seat. The familiar, enveloping feeling washed over him. He slowly started the engine, and the Koenigsegg emitted a deep, melodious roar, exceptionally clear in the quiet garage.

The underground parking garage was narrow, with cars parked on both sides. Qin Luo carefully controlled his speed, keeping it below 20 kilometers per hour, and slowly drove towards the exit.

Just as his car had completed a right-angle turn and was about to enter another lane—

A sudden change occurred!

"Shua——!!"

On the left, a black SUV that was originally parked with its engine off and inconspicuous suddenly lit up its modified xenon headlights, which looked like small suns!

The lights were specially treated, making them extremely bright and focused, like two scorching swords that precisely and fiercely pierced the windshield and shone directly into Qin Luo's eyes!
The intense light instantly robbed Qin Luo of his vision, leaving only a blinding white expanse and dizzying spots of light!

He instinctively raised his arm, shielding his eyes with the back of his hand, trying to block the sudden onslaught of bright light. A nameless anger surged within him—who was so inconsiderate as to use such high beams in a parking lot?!

However, something even more shocking happened!
The SUV with its deadly headlights blazing didn't turn off its lights or apologize for nearly causing an accident; instead, at the same time, its engine roared furiously!

"boom--!!!"

The roar of the V8 engine echoed deafeningly in the closed garage!
The massive SUV, like an enraged steel behemoth, screeched as its tires rubbed against the ground, emitting a puff of blue smoke. It wasn't braking; instead, it suddenly accelerated!
With a resolute and unstoppable attitude, it charged straight and fiercely at the Koenigsegg, which had just turned the corner, was traveling at less than 20 kilometers per hour, and was almost a stationary target!

The other party's goal was crystal clear—to smash him and his car against this cold wall!

Qin Luo's pupils suddenly contracted to the size of pinpoints!

Despite his vision being temporarily obscured by the bright light, his extraordinary perception and judgment allowed him to make the most accurate assessment in an instant—the other party was moving extremely fast, and judging from the engine sound and the oppressive feeling of approaching, the speed was definitely over 100 kilometers per hour!

At this moment, his car was moving slowly. Even though the Koenigsegg had top-notch acceleration performance, it was impossible for him to make any effective evasive maneuvers at such a close distance and in such a narrow space!

If Koenigsegg were to be hit head-on by this high-speed SUV, the consequences would be unimaginable given its relatively low and lightweight body!

He would probably be instantly crushed into a messy pulp by the enormous impact!

The shadow of death, like a cold tide, instantly enveloped Qin Luo!
In a flash, Qin Luo had no time to think about who was behind it all, nor did he have time to be angry. His survival instinct and the composure honed from countless brushes with death led him to make the most immediate reaction!
He gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles turning white from the force, and pressed his foot firmly on the brake! Although he knew it was futile, it was the best way to maintain the stability of the vehicle and reduce secondary damage in the event of a collision.

His eyes were sharp as an eagle's. Although he was stung by the bright light, he still tried to penetrate the halo and pinpoint the exact location of the other vehicle. Every muscle in his body tensed up instantly, adjusting to its best state, ready to meet the impending, earth-shattering, violent impact!

He could even clearly hear his heart pounding wildly in his chest, and the roar of the deadly SUV engine getting closer and closer, like the grim reaper's grin!
In that critical moment, when tragedy seemed imminent—

"call out--!"

A very faint yet sharp sound, as if it could tear the air apart, rang out without warning, like a venomous snake flicking its tongue in the dark night!
A cold, sharp glint shot out from a dark corner of the parking lot at a speed too fast for the naked eye to detect! Its precision was as if calculated by the most advanced computer, tracing a deadly arc!

"Bang——!!!"

A muffled but loud explosion followed immediately!

The SUV that was accelerating wildly toward them suddenly had its left front wheel sag downwards!
That thin, willow-leaf-like throwing knife pierced the weakest point of the rapidly spinning tire's sidewall with incredible precision! The tire instantly exploded and deflated!
An SUV traveling at high speed suddenly lost a wheel, instantly disrupting its balance!
“Squeak——!!!”

A sickening, out-of-control screech of tires suddenly erupted!
The SUV, which was originally heading straight for the Koenigsegg, suddenly veered off course, its front end swinging uncontrollably to the left!
"Boom——!!!"

A deafening roar, accompanied by the screeching sounds of twisting metal and shattering glass, erupted in the parking lot!
The out-of-control SUV crashed hard and solidly into the side of an innocent private car parked on the left side of the lane!

The enormous impact caused severe deformation to both vehicles!

The front of the SUV was almost completely embedded in the body of the private car. The hood was twisted and flipped up, emitting puffs of white smoke, and the windshield was shattered into a spiderweb pattern. All the airbags deployed instantly upon impact, but it was clearly too late.

The driver's compartment of the SUV was the first to be impacted and suffered the most severe deformation, almost being crushed into a ball.

It was clear that the driver was trapped inside the deformed steering wheel and dashboard, with blood seeping from the gaps. He showed no signs of life and died on the spot!
Everything happens in an instant.

From the moment the bright light came on, to the SUV accelerating and crashing, to the flying knife piercing the air, the tires exploding, and the vehicle losing control and crashing... the whole process took only two or three seconds!
What was originally a deadly crisis was forcibly resolved in the most violent and direct way by this sudden and miraculous throwing knife!

The parking lot fell into a deathly silence once again, with only the faint hissing sound of the wreckage from the collision, the wisps of white smoke rising from under the SUV's hood, and the faint smell of blood and gunpowder in the air.

Qin Luo slowly lowered his arm that had been blocking the light, and his vision gradually returned.

He glanced at the horrific crash site less than five meters from the front of his car, then his sharp gaze swept towards the dark corner from which the flying knife had come, his eyes deep and unfathomable, lost in thought.

Just then, a figure slowly walked out from the dark corner where the flying knife had come from.

The newcomer was none other than Blade.

He was still dressed in his signature black clothes, and his long hair, reminiscent of Chan Ho-nam, looked even more aloof and mysterious in the dim, flickering light of the garage.

His face was cold and hard, his eyes like ice that had never melted, showing no emotion whatsoever.

He first walked steadily toward the SUV that was badly deformed and emitting white smoke.

His gaze swept over the driver in the cab, who was clearly dead, without any change in expression.

He extended his hand, gloved with black fingers, and precisely located the thin, willow-leaf-shaped throwing knife embedded in the punctured tire. With a slight flick of his wrist, he easily removed it, wiped off the stains with a special velvet cloth, and then silently put it back into his possession.

After doing all this, he turned around and walked towards Qin Luo's Koenigsegg.

Qin Luo had already opened the car door and was standing beside the car, looking at Dao Feng approaching, with a hint of surprise still lingering on his face.

"Blade? What are you doing here?" Blade stopped in front of Qin Luo, bowed slightly as a greeting, and his voice was as deep and steady as ever.

“Your Highness, I anticipated that someone would harm you, so I have been secretly following and protecting you.”

"Not good for me?"

Qin Luo frowned slightly, his gaze sweeping over the wrecked SUV and the dead driver.

"Is it Mu Linshan, or Qiu Qinxiang?"

Among the core figures of Anbang Group that he has come into contact with, it seems that only these two women, who are fighting to the death for power, have the motive and the courage to do such a deadly thing to him.

Blade nodded, his tone certain.

"Neither Miss Mu nor Madam Qiu will sit idly by and watch you sit comfortably in the position of heir. For them, the simplest and most effective way is to eliminate you, the biggest variable, before you have gained sufficient power and truly control the shares."

He paused and added.

"Besides those two, I can't think of anyone else in Fujian who would dare or need to do such a thing to you."

Qin Luo remained silent for a moment, processing the information.

Although he wasn't afraid of trouble, this lurking, deadly threat still made him wary. If it weren't for Blade's timely protection, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Someone has died here; it's a terrible scene."

Blade glanced at the chaotic scene and said to Qin Luo.

"Your Highness, you should leave now."

Leave the aftermath here to me.

Qin Luo knew that Dao Feng had the ability and means to handle this kind of trouble. He nodded and didn't ask any more questions, but just gave Dao Feng a deep look.

"Thanks."

"It's your job."

Blade bowed again.

Qin Luo said no more, got back into the Koenigsegg, started the engine, and the silver-white sports car let out a low growl as it drove around the accident scene and slowly drove out of the underground parking lot, disappearing into the night outside.

Blade watched Qin Luo leave until the taillights disappeared before turning his gaze away. He then looked coldly at the wrecked SUV and the dead driver, and began to deal with the troublesome scene.

……

Meanwhile, in a luxury villa district on the other side of the city.

The second basement level of a modernly designed villa is not a storage room as in ordinary homes, but has been transformed into an extremely luxurious indoor swimming pool with constant temperature and humidity.

The pool water rippled, reflecting the starry lights on the ceiling.

A graceful and beautiful figure emerged from the water with a splash, like a lotus rising from the water.

It was Qiu Qinxiang.

She was wearing a rather daring and revealing black one-piece swimsuit that perfectly accentuated her well-maintained and elegant figure.

Water droplets rolled down her smooth skin, shimmering under the light. Although she was over forty, she was breathtakingly beautiful, exuding the unique charm and allure of a mature woman.

Several maids and servants stood by the pool, their hands at their sides.

At a slightly further distance, her bodyguard, Li Minghao, stood solemnly like a javelin.

Li Minghao was a young man who looked to be in his late twenties. He was well-built, with a resolute face and sharp eyes, clearly a skilled fighter who had undergone professional training.

He silently protected Qiu Qinxiang, his gaze mostly fixed on her.

At this moment, looking at Qiu Qinxiang, who had just emerged from the water, soaking wet and with her curves fully exposed, Li Minghao's Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, and a hint of undisguised amazement and attraction flashed in his eyes.

Qiu Qinxiang's beauty and mature charm were fatally attractive to a young man as vigorous as him.

However, the enormous gap in their social status stood like an insurmountable chasm in his heart.

He knew all too well that he was just a lowly bodyguard, while the other party was the wife of Anbang Group, a high and mighty figure.

These inappropriate thoughts could only be suppressed deep in his heart, turning into a profound sense of inferiority.

He subconsciously tightened his hands, which were crossed in front of him, as if trying to use this action to cover up the turmoil in his heart and some embarrassing physical reactions.

Just then, a very faint but rhythmic sound of footsteps came from the direction of the stairs leading to the basement.

Li Minghao was extremely vigilant. He was instantly jolted awake from his erotic fantasies, turned around abruptly, his muscles tensed, and his sharp eyes looked towards the source of the sound.

When he saw the person slowly walking down the stairs from the shadows, his tense nerves relaxed slightly, but the awe in his eyes did not diminish at all, and he bowed slightly.

"Mr. Blade".

Qiu Qinxiang, who was drying her hair with a soft towel, looked up in surprise when she heard the name "Blade".

When she saw that it really was Blade, a look of obvious surprise appeared on her face.

She remembered clearly that Daofeng hadn't come to see her on his own initiative for almost three years. The last time he came, he was with Grandpa Mu.

"Blade? What brings you here?"

Qiu Qinxiang put down the towel, forcing a smile that seemed warm but was actually wary.
