From rejecting the beautiful female CEO to becoming extremely powerful

Once the car lights on the mountain road disappeared, Pei Zhongting returned to the table, picked up the number Lu Yunzhou had left behind, glanced at it a few times, then folded it and put it in his sleeve.

Lu Yunzhou is skilled and has a strong temper.

Such a person, if he can be subdued, will be a sharp weapon.

If it can't be suppressed, it must be eliminated before the succession struggle begins in the clouds, to avoid future troubles.

He crushed the white jade chess pieces on the table.

Ayase Maki stood by the door, her hand on the hilt of her sword: "Should we send someone to follow them?"

Pei Zhongting picked up his wine glass, his gaze falling out the window: "Follow him from a distance, don't make any moves, investigate the people around him first."

As Lu Yunzhou drove down the mountainside, just after the car rounded the second bend, his phone started vibrating repeatedly.

Pop-ups from unfamiliar platforms filled the screen.

[Qiguang Children's Welfare Institute Public Welfare Assistance Platform]

[Highest level of emergency alert: Ye Churan's account has initiated a request for help.]

Location: Beiling Quarry Hill.

[Remaining time: 90 minutes.]

[Attachment: The torn-up work badge.JPG]

[Note: You are only allowed to come alone.]

The last line contains location information.

Lu Yunzhou slammed on the brakes, and the car came to rest sideways on the side of the road.

The attached photo loads out; the white work badge is broken in the middle, with mud and water on the back and several dark red stains.

He dialed Ye Churan's number back.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

The second time I dialed, the phone automatically received a four-second voice message.

The sound of the wind drowned out the first half of the sentence, but the second half came through clearly.

"Yunzhou, save me..."

The voice message ended, and the red dot on the location started moving, jumping from near the welfare home all the way to Beiling, and finally stopping at the third mine pit in Caishishan.

Lu Yunzhou pressed the phone into his palm and turned the car around.

Su Qingwan, Feng Qianyi, and Shen Luoyan are all in Sheng'an.

As long as they are notified, there will be more arrangements and waiting on the road.

Ye Churan had told him not to tell anyone, so he chose to go alone.

Press the accelerator to the floor, and the car speed increases steadily.

The seatbelt was digging into his old right shoulder injury, causing the wound to ache. He reached out and loosened it, without stopping.

The road at the entrance to Beiling was blocked by fallen rocks, and thick chains were wrapped around the iron gate.

There are seven kilometers left to the location; the countdown is already halfway over.

Lu Yunzhou got out of the car, moved the fallen rocks, kicked the door lock, and ran up the mountain path.

The gravel rolled on the soles of my shoes, and my cell phone signal was down to just two bars.

The third mine pit was unlit, with abandoned steel frames leaning against the stone walls. The wind blew through the pit, carrying the smell of rust and damp earth.

He put away his phone, took out his silver needles, and just as he reached the edge of the pit, the pebbles under his feet suddenly sprang up.

The dagger grazed his neck.

Lu Yunzhou dodged to the side and slapped the woman in black on the shoulder with his right palm.

The woman used the momentum to retreat onto the sloping rock, her black mask covering most of her face, leaving only her eyes visible.

Footsteps came from the other side of the rock face.

A tall man in black emerged from behind the steel frame and punched Lu Yunzhou.

Lu Yunzhou raised his arm to block, his shoe sole dragging half a meter on the ground, and the wound on his right shoulder immediately reopened, blood seeping from his sleeve.

The woman's speed reached the peak of the sixth rank, while the man's strength stepped into the seventh rank.

The two stood one in front of the other, with the woman keeping him occupied while the man blocked his escape route.

Lu Yunzhou scanned the bottom of the pit, pressing down on the pain in his shoulder: "Where is Ye Churan?"

The woman gently shook the tip of the knife: "Hand yourself over first, then ask her questions."

Lu Yunzhou shifted his feet to avoid the blade and then grabbed her wrist with his other hand.

He withdrew the force from his palm, intending to leave the victim alive for interrogation.

The woman crouched down and bumped into his ribs, her wrist slipping away in the process.

Lu Yunzhou took a half step back, and the man's fist landed just past his ear, leaving a dent in the stone pillar behind him.

Stone chips were scattered all over the ground.

A white light shone from the bottom of the pit, and Ye Churan's broken work badge hung beneath it.

Her voice came through the old loudspeaker beside her: "Yunzhou, save me..."

Lu Yunzhou stepped toward the white lamp.

The man seized the brief opening and struck him in the abdomen with his knee.

Lu Yunzhou crashed into the rock wall, a metallic taste rising in his throat, and two silver needles fell from his hand.

The woman lunged at him along the rock face, her dagger aimed straight for his arm.

Lu Yunzhou raised his hand and gripped the back of the knife, tightening his fingers until the blade stopped half an inch from his skin.

The woman flicked her wrist, the hilt of her knife striking his chin, and pulled the knife away as he relaxed his grip.

The man approached again, clapping his hands repeatedly.

Lu Yunzhou dodged the first palm strike, but the second palm strike grazed his ribs and landed, pushing his body towards the pit opening.

Every time he was about to deliver a fatal blow to the man, Ye Churan's panting could be heard coming from the loudspeaker.

Every time they were about to capture a woman, the sound of chains dragging on the ground could be heard from the bottom of the pit.

Lu Yunzhou's attempts were repeatedly thwarted.

He gritted his teeth and lunged at the woman.

The woman stepped back behind the steel frame, deliberately exposing her shoulders.

Lu Yunzhou's palm strike blocked her retreat, and the man had already crashed into her from behind.

He took the elbow strike, grabbed the woman by the collar, and dragged her in front of him.

The blade grazed his sleeve, tearing the fabric and leaving a bloody gash on his arm.

Lu Yunzhou pressed down on the woman's shoulders: "Tell me, where is she!"

The woman raised her knee to shove his leg away, and laughter came from behind her mask: "Do you dare to hit me too hard? She's right down there."

A muffled thud came from the bottom of the pit.

Ye Churan's voice rang out immediately after: "Yunzhou, don't come any closer!"

Lu Yunzhou's hand paused for a moment.

The woman took the opportunity to break free, and the dagger went around his arm.

The man slapped him on the back, and he staggered two steps forward. As soon as he turned around, the man blocked his way.

A seventh-grade force pressed down on his shoulder and brought him down.

Lu Yunzhou crossed his arms, the rock beneath his feet cracked open, and the wound on his right shoulder completely burst open, with blood flowing down his arm.

He looked down into the pit. The white light was still on, and the broken work badge was swaying gently, but Ye Churan was nowhere to be seen.

The two assassins seized the opportunity and closed in.

The man gripped his shoulders, while the woman circled around from the side and behind him, the blade pressed against his neck.

Lu Yunzhou raised his hand to block, but his wrist was twisted behind his back by the man, and his knee slammed heavily onto the gravel ground.

A woman's voice blared again from the loudspeaker: "Lu Yunzhou, kneel down."

The blade was already pressed against his neck.

The male assassin pressed down on Lu Yunzhou's injured right shoulder, while the female assassin stood behind him, a short knife pressed against his skin.

The gravel was digging into my knees, and blood was trickling down my sleeve.

"Ye Churan's life is in our hands. Try moving her again."

Lu Yunzhou took a deep breath, then his second breath sank into his abdomen, and his third breath rose from his abdomen.

The lengths are staggered, and the speeds are reversed.

The "Turtle Breathing Method" is specifically designed to disrupt an opponent's judgment.

When two people work together, their steps, breathing, and exertion must be in sync.

Lu Yunzhou deliberately disrupted his breathing, causing the male assassin to slow down his movements by half a beat.

His shoulders slumped down, and his body slid away with the other person's force.

The blade grazed the collar, deflecting the male assassin's arm.

Lu Yunzhou raised his elbow to deflect the short knife, then grabbed the man's wrist with his right hand, channeling his inner energy into his meridians from the base of his palm.

The male assassin's arm went numb, and he loosened his grip.

Lu Yunzhou used the momentum to flip over, kneeing the other person in the back of the knee, grabbing their collar and slamming them to the ground.

The man had just propped himself up on one side when Lu Yunzhou pressed down on the back of his neck and sent his true energy in again.

The man groaned, and his shoulders slumped.

The female assassin seized an opening and swung her knife from the side.

Lu Yunzhou dodged to the side, the short knife slicing past his ribs, tearing his clothes and leaving a bloody gash on his skin.

The woman raised her knee and struck him in the stomach.

Lu Yunzhou loosened his grip slightly to avoid the attack, and then slapped her shoulder with his left palm.

True energy surged through the fabric, the woman's back slammed into the steel frame, and the rubble beneath her feet rolled into the mine pit.

The loudspeaker at the bottom of the pit blared again.

"Yunzhou, don't come any closer..."
