Blood streamed down the middle-aged man's face in an instant.
Gu Ran tried to grab him with a grappling technique, but the other party was also quite strong. Enduring the pain, he quickly retreated.
At this moment, Gu Ran stopped worrying about capturing the person and seized the opportunity to throw a punch, knocking Zhang Ronghua back.
Cherry blossoms, let's go!
The punch went straight for his chest; it was extremely violent!
In an instant, Zhang Ronghua felt his sternum shatter, and he crashed into the wall, losing consciousness.
"I'm not playing with you anymore!" After saying that, Gu Ran didn't care whether Zhang Ronghua was alive or dead.
He moved swiftly, grabbed Lü Yongbin by the neck, and tried to take him away.
The servant Liu Wei stepped in and grabbed Lü Yongbin, trying to save him.
Gu Ran swung his knife and severed Liu Wei's wrist!
"If you continue to aid and abet evil and remain stubborn, I will kill you!" Gu Ran said coldly.
Instead of retreating, Liu Wei, whose hand had been severed, pressed forward, clenching his teeth as if he were crushing something in his gums.
Upon noticing this, Gu Ran immediately raised her knife and, in the nick of time, slit his throat with the reverse blade.
After sealing Liu Wei's throat, Gu Ran was still not at ease. She pried open Liu Wei's mouth and found that he indeed had a capsule in his mouth, which he had already chewed up.
Looking at the churning liquid in his mouth, it was clearly dragon's blood potion.
Gu Ran immediately drew his knife again and severed Liu Wei's head in two, completely extinguishing his life.
The first time at Tian Ding Mountain, Gu Ran failed to finish off the enemy immediately, which resulted in that person drinking the Dragon Blood Potion and turning into a Deadpool.
Gu Ran will not make this mistake again.
After dealing with the people, Gu Ran wiped the bloodstains off the knife with a handkerchief. The blood on it included Liu Wei's and Zhang Ronghua's, and it was impossible to tell who was who.
He put away the handkerchief and pulled Lü Yongbin, who was hiding to the side trembling.
Looking back at the spot where Zhang Ronghua had fallen, he was nowhere to be seen.
Outside, hurried footsteps could be heard, presumably from armed men summoned by Zhang Ronghua.
Without saying a word, Gu Ran grabbed Lü Yongbin's arm expressionlessly and used his body as a hammer to smash the glass in the window.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
Lu Yongbin screamed a few times. As a mixed-race person, his body was stronger than that of ordinary people. Gu Ran also used a lot of force and smashed the glass, causing it to crack.
Lu Yongbin felt as if all the bones in his body had fallen apart.
"Spare me, please! Spare my life!" he begged in agony, the fear of his broken sternum returning to his mind.
Gu Ran found him too noisy, so she grabbed his neck and hypnotized him into a deep sleep.
Then Gu Ran threw another punch, shattering the cracked tempered glass completely.
At this moment, armed men rushed out and opened fire, but they only managed to shoot at nothing.
Because Gu Ran leaped directly out of the window before the glass shards even hit the ground!
The armed men rushed to the window and looked out, only to find an endless sea below, with no one in it.
They didn't hear the sound of someone falling into the water.
Where did Gu Ran go?
Just when they were at their wits' end, a minute later, the gates of the speedboat dock were opened, and a speedboat shot out from the gates, flying as if skimming the water's surface, cutting through the waves.
It turned out that Gu Ran had used the Flying Thunder God Technique to arrive at the dock while he was falling.
He had left marks on the speedboat before.
Soon, the speedboat moved away from the cruise ship and went further and further away.
"Boss, should we go after them?" One of the subordinates glanced at Zhang Ronghua, whose face was covered in blood, and dared not look him in the eye.
Zhang Ronghua's face looks terrifying, and blood is still flowing continuously.
Now, my facial skin experiences severe pain whenever I move it.
He waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to chase; even if he caught up, he wouldn't be able to beat them, so it was indeed useless.
The plan was flawless; they were just one step away from capturing the key hostage, Su Xiaoqiang.
But in reality, Gu Ran rescued the person and even caused a huge scene on their boat.
He was disfigured and was almost killed if he hadn't dodged quickly.
Moreover, he overheard some incredible news: Gu Ran possessed an 'edict'.
This young man's abilities must be reassessed!
……
Gu Ran drove the speedboat southwest back.
But the sea is vast and boundless, making it difficult to determine direction.
Fortunately, his cell phone has a satellite positioning signal, and he can be guided on a flight path via satellite phone.
Meanwhile, Nuwa and her comrades were also dispatching rescue teams based on Gu Ran's satellite location.
Nuwa was very reliable. Not long after, a search and rescue helicopter arrived and brought Gu Ran and Lü Yongbin back to base.
By the time he returned to Shanghai, it was already night.
The top-floor clubhouse is closed to guests today. The VIP elevator entrance is guarded by bodyguards, and no one is allowed to approach.
After a while, Gu Ran got out of the back seat of the black British sports car Aston Martin, pulling a huge suitcase in his hand.
Zhang Wanjun followed behind him, holding a tennis bag in both hands.
Gu Ran's face showed a rare hint of fatigue, because he had used the Flying Thunder God Technique several times today, all of which involved long-distance teleportation, consuming a lot of chakra.
He walked to the VIP elevator entrance, where the bodyguard who had stopped Gu Ran during their first meeting now respectfully stepped aside and invited him in.
Gu Ran walked into the elevator with a blank expression, dragging her suitcase.
He noticed something: there were many more 'snakes' patrolling and guarding the area around the building.
The elevator went straight up to the top floor without stopping.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, Lu Zhong and Lu Xue'er were seen waiting at the entrance of the club.
"Let's go inside and talk about it." Zhang Wanjun took the initiative to walk forward, and at the same time opened her tennis bag and took out a sword.
Dragon-Slaying Sword.
When Lü Zhong and his granddaughter Lü Xue'er saw the Dragon-Slaying Sword, they understood Gu Ran's attitude.
Upon entering the clubhouse, the usual banquet hall was now completely empty.
Nuwa, this slender young girl, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her hands behind her back, looking at the scenery of the Bund.
Hearing the sound, she turned around and saw Zhang Wanjun holding the Dragon-Slaying Sword. She sighed.
"Young people are so hot-blooded. Nuwa hasn't even made a decision yet, and you're already questioning it?"
Although Zhang Wanjun was holding the Dragon-Slaying Sword, the one wielding the sword was Gu Ran.
Right now, she's just a sword attendant.
Gu Ran's intention in having Zhang Wanjun hold the Dragon-Slaying Sword was quite simple.
Today, the way Lü Yongbin was dealt with did not satisfy him, so he drew his sword and killed him. No one could stop him!
Even Jesus couldn't stop him!
"I dare not." Zhang Wanjun lowered her eyes, not daring to look directly at Nuwa.
However, her initiative in helping Gu Ran carry the sword was essentially a reflection of the Zhang family's attitude.
"How about I also bring out the Dragon-Slaying Platform and we all have a showdown?" The little girl's expression suddenly changed, and her pupils turned golden.
Chapter 212 Conviction
When Nuwa changed her expression, she was no longer an innocent and carefree little girl; the entire room exuded an invisible pressure.
Of all those present, Lü Xueer had the worst bloodline and felt so much pressure that she could hardly breathe.
Lu Zhong and Zhang Wanjun also felt their breath catch in their throats, and dared not even breathe loudly.
Only Gu Ran remained standing there expressionless. He no longer needed the system's help to withstand the pressure.
Nuwa and Gu Ran exchanged a glance, then the golden light in their eyes faded, and they chuckled softly:
"Never mind, I was just kidding."
The imposing atmosphere dissipated instantly, and everyone felt a sense of relief.
At this moment, Gu Ran pulled out the catfish tail knife from behind her and twirled it at the huge suitcase in front of her.
The next second, the surface of the suitcase shattered into pieces, and a person covered in blood appeared in front of everyone.
It was Lü Yongbin!
Lu Zhong and Lu Xue'er looked at him and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he was still alive.
Although his skull was deformed and his body was covered in blood and wounds.
But it's a miracle he didn't die.
Lu Zhong thought that since Gu Ran hadn't killed him back then, he should still be able to give him a way out.
He was about to swallow his pride and beg Gu Ran for mercy when Nuwa stepped forward, pinched Lü Yongbin's face, and woke him up.
"Wa... Nuwa? Nuwa, save me!" Lu Yongbin opened his eyes and saw Nuwa as if he had seen a savior. "Gu Ran is going to kill me! Help! He's a devil! He's already killed Liu Wei. Gu Ran is a real psychopath! He even wants to crush me to death! Nuwa, please save me!"
"You scoundrel!" Lu Zhong roared at his grandson, "You did something wrong, and you still have the nerve to blame others? You won't even admit your mistake!"
"It's not admitting a mistake, it's confessing your sins," Nuwa said calmly. "Lü Yongbin, do you confess your sins?"
“I…” Lü Yongbin’s eyes darted around, as if he was thinking about how to make up a story.
“Interrogating you is too much trouble, I’ll just use hypnosis to question you.” Nuwa was too lazy to waste words with him, her bright eyes staring at him, a small golden flower appearing in her pupils and spinning rapidly.
