Chapter 1530 I“m Going to Make a Prophecy
It was an outrageous threat. They were a group of powerful men with guns, but they had been stopped and detained by a college student.
After this one remark from Xu Que, all the people looked at each other one by one and then dropped the guns in their hands. They didn’t even consult Xia Luoqing. They just threw their guns into the elevator shaft.
After all, Earth was a harmonious society. If this event had been taking place in the World of Cultivators, this kind of thing wouldn’t have happened.
All the Xia family’s men in suits thought Xu Que was a real master from beyond this world and not an ordinary man. Since he could pull up and hold an elevator, as well as also control the life-or-death situation of their colleagues in the elevator, then these guns must be no threat to him.
Didn’t they just hear him say that guns were prohibited items, so they had been asked to throw them away.
Looking at his lawful awareness, he was certainly a very able man who was seeking to maintain world peace. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made such a request. He would’ve long ago started killing them.
Therefore, after the men in suits threw away their guns, they also didn’t even have the slightest ability to counterattack. They felt that as long as they threw away their guns, then they would be safe. To be reduced to becoming captives was better than being dead.
After all, since they’d been found to have possessed illegal guns, being hacked to death by the other party could also be considered as self-defense.
“Good, you did well. You can climb out now.”
When Xu Que had seen that these people were so cooperative, he nodded his head in satisfaction and looked at the men in suits inside the elevator as he spoke.
Until everyone had come out, Xu Que directly fastened the elevator cable in the elevator shaft to stabilize the elevator so that it did not drop. Then he entered the hallway again.
At this moment, everyone was afraid to act rashly.
As if he had accepted Xu Que’s strength, Xia Luoqing truly understood why he was so self-confident.
The middle-aged man had been stupefied for a long time. He had become very clear that it was impossible for even his own master to be at Xu Que’s level.
“One hand to pull an elevator at its full capacity? Is this something that can be done by a human?”
“Young man, which…which reclusive and influential martial arts family are you from?” At this time, an old man looked at Xu Que and asked in a dignified manner. Both his hands were still slightly trembling. All the other old people also looked perturbed and their Internal Forces were in turmoil.
“I knew it. I knew our guess was right. There will always be other people better than we are. Even though we have been practicing martial arts since childhood, have an exceedingly high apt.i.tude, and have stepped into the grand master level, there still exists a man stronger than we are. Those people who once perished in the long history of the true martial arts still exist.”
Not waiting for Xu Que to respond, the old man shouted excitedly, and his eyes even reddened.
PFFT!
“Old man, don’t get so excited. I don’t know whether the influential martial arts family exists or not. Anyway, I’m not from it.” Xu Que couldn’t help laughing and answered the old man, while shaking his head and laughing.
Originally he’d thought that in accordance with the manners of these middle-aged men, these old masters might even presume on their seniority as having a need to teach him a lesson. But now it certainly looked as if this wouldn’t be necessary.
Just as well, it would save him a lot of trouble.
“You stay where you are, and wait for a while. I’ll make a phone call, that… Boss Lin, right? Lend me your cell phone for a while!” Xu Que said and reached out to Boss Lin.
Boss Lin stared blankly and then warily took a step back while she asked, “Don’t you have a cell phone?”
Her first reaction was that she was afraid that Xu Que wanted to check her cell phone. After all, the secrets hidden in her cell phone were too many and involved many big shots.
“You come with me then.” Xu Que beckoned to her and went straight into the restaurant.
Boss Lin stood where she was and hesitated, but Xu Que’s voice came again, “Old masters, can I trouble you to watch and restrain Xia Luoqing and that bunch of men in suits. Don’t let them run away and also don’t let them get their hands on the guns. I will grant you a great favor after I’m done with what I’m doing.”
Xu Que put emphasis on the word great and immediately added, “Boss Lin, if you don’t come right now, believe it or not, do you want me to throw you into the elevator?”
Once Boss Lin heard that, her face suddenly turned pale. She immediately gritted her teeth and strode forward to follow him.
All the eyes of the several old masters brightened.
“D*mn, a great work?”
Several people straight away stared at Xia Luoqing and those men in suits from the Xia family.
Xia Luoqing almost coughed up blood in anger. “Sons of b*tches, I had summoned you as helpers and you have directly betrayed me?”
But the group of men in suits were okay and had no intention of resisting. At least they were now certain that abandoning the guns had been the right choice. Xu Que really didn’t have the intention of killing them. He’d just wanted to restrain them.
After all, in the face of absolute strength, resistance was the stupidest thing one could do. Their current situation was the best scenario they could’ve hoped for.
As a result, the entire hallway was incomparably quiet, and no one caused any trouble.
Moments later, Xu Que and Boss Lin also walked out of the restaurant.
Boss Lin’s hair had gotten a little messy, and even her clothes too. Her breathing was a little fast. Her face was also a little flushed as if she had just experienced an extremely thrilling event.
Xu Que hadn’t changed. His face still held a hint of a vaguely mischievous smile. He’d had a roguish air throughout the whole process, which disgusted many men but was irresistible to many women.
The appearance of these two people immediately caught the attention of everyone present.
The crowd suddenly raised their eyebrows and were startled.
In particular, Xia Luoqing had a face of utter disbelief. His mouth was slightly agape.
“No way?”
“Is Xu Que so arrogant that he would even dare lay a hand on Boss Lin? What the f*ck, even I, the Young Master, am afraid to touch her. He actually went in to take care of Boss Lin. Could it be possible that he is not aware of who’s behind Boss Lin?”
However, Boss Lin was still in a state of shock at the moment.
It had been hard for her to imagine that the college student beside her had such a great ability to get the people who were behind her to engage in talks with him personally and finally reach terms on so many things, including a big event that would shock the entire city.
This was why she’d cut a sorry figure when she came out. Xu Que really hadn’t done anything to her. She’d merely listened in on their conversation and was so scared that she’d wiped her sweat off after she’d broken into a cold sweat.
So the moment she came out, she also noticed the strange looks in the eyes of the crowd.
But she didn’t take it to heart. Instead, she looked at Xia Luoqing and her eyes couldn’t help but hold a hint of sympathy.
Xia Luoqing was doomed.
Everything had happened because this college student named Xu Que next to her had made a promise to that big shot over the phone and the other side did whatever it took to deploy their ma.s.sive capabilities.
“Well, all the friends watching the live-streaming have been waiting for a long time. Next, I’m going to start performing!” At the same time, Xu Que had already walked back and picked up his cell phone. He smiled at the viewers in the live- streaming room.
As if there was no one next to him, he basically didn’t care about the presence of Xia Luoqing and the others. He continued to say into the cell phone, “You may think that I am here today to perform martial arts. Wrong, wrong, the Eighteen Dragon Palms is a mere trifle. What I’m really good at is the ability of prophecy.”
Speaking of which, Xu Que suddenly turned his head back and pointed a finger to Xia Luoqing as he said, “Next, I am going to predict that the capital’s most infamous Xia Enterprises is about to go bankrupt, and the corruption and scandals of all the officials in the Xia family clan will be uncovered. And the Xia family’s Young Master Xia Luoqing…”
The corners of Xu Que’s mouth suddenly curled up into a sneer, “He will not be able to bear the sudden grievous news about his family. He will have a nervous breakdown and jump off a building and kill himself.”
