The Soldier Master of Chongming Island?

The ordinary tourists on the deck didn't know what Gao Yue was talking about, but they could clearly see that the surrounding waves had stopped, and the cruise ship had ceased rocking.

The danger had disappeared.

Safe at last!

Thus, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, while simultaneously glaring at Gao Yue with immense hatred, grinding their teeth.

However, due to the awe-inspiring might Gao Yue had just displayed, even though he was now in the clutches of the Red Flame Maiden, no one dared to truly approach him, as the power he had shown was indeed too terrifying.

It was simply inconceivable!

"Immortal Venerable, this guy just said that if he were killed, the Soldier Master on Chongming Island would immediately come," the Red Flame Maiden said to Qin Heng with a strange expression.

Qin Heng was also somewhat surprised, not expecting such good fortune.

However, Gao Yue interpreted the expression on Qin Heng's face as fear, hesitation, and panic, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kid! It seems you also know of the Soldier Master's strength!" Gao Yue said pridefully to Qin Heng. "If you're sensible, I advise you to kneel down immediately and transfer all the assets in your hands to my brother. Otherwise, if I report this to my master, your entire family will be annihilated!"

"HAHAHA! Gao Yue, you truly are my lucky star!" Gao Yao also laughed proudly, pointing at Qin Heng. "Mr. Qin, you didn't expect this, did you? My brother actually turns out to be the disciple of a great figure! Qin Heng, now you're finished! Completely finished! Kneel down before this young master immediately! Then prepare a contract and transfer all the assets under your name to me, otherwise, you won't be able to bear the consequences! HAHAHA!!"

Exhilarating! It is truly exhilarating to be able to scold and berate the heir of the Daqin Group like this—it's just too exhilarating! Before, in front of Qin Heng, I was nothing more than an ant. Now, I can actually scold and berate him so unscrupulously, even make him kneel and transfer his assets to me! It's damn exhilarating!

For the first time, Gao Yao felt that when a person was powerful enough, they could truly look down upon everything in the mortal world. Whether it was wealth or power, all of it was fragile before sufficiently strong personal might!

"Qin Heng! Come over here and kneel down!" Gao Yao tilted his chin up, reverting to his initial arrogant demeanor. He flexed his fingers and said, "Come on! Kneel! I want to slap your face a few times to quell the hatred in my heart!!"

"Go kneel down! Now!" Gao Yue also looked at Qin Heng with a cold sneer. "Later, when my brother hits you, you absolutely must not fight back. Otherwise, I will tell my master and have him exterminate your entire family!"

"This is modern society. You speak of exterminating an entire family so casually—aren't you afraid of being arrested?" Qin Heng's expression was unchanged, his gaze still perfectly calm. He smiled and said, "Are you that confident?"

"Stupid mortal, you have no idea how powerful the Soldier Master is!" Gao Yue scoffed. "Have you heard of Qin Xuantian, who once annihilated over a thousand members of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces and ten warships in Tokyo Bay? The Soldier Master is in no way inferior in strength to him!" Fresh chapters posted on Nov3lFɪre.ɴet

"That powerful! Your master can take out the Japanese Self-Defense Forces and ten warships by himself!?" Gao Yao turned his head, looking at Gao Yue in disbelief. "Is he still human?"

"My master is the Divine Dragon in the sky, the Soldier Master who wields supreme mana!" Gao Yue said with pride. "Even Qin Xuantian would probably seem less powerful before my master. After all, he has lived for over a hundred years! His strength is unfathomable!"

"Holy shit! A terrifying being who can take on an entire army! Gao Yue, if your master comes out, we brothers will be invincible!" Gao Yao was immensely excited. He turned to Qin Heng and said, "What the fuck are you waiting for? Get over here and kneel down for me!!"

Gao Yao was completely consumed by arrogance. In his mind, anyone who could fend off the military so effortlessly was invincible. With such a backer, he felt he could do as he pleased without a care.

Then, he turned his gaze to the Red Flame Maiden.

"Woman! Tonight, you're mine! Otherwise, my brother will have his master kill you!" Gao Yao burst into laughter, walking straight toward the Red Flame Maiden and reaching out to touch her.

WHOOSH WHOOSH!!

Flames erupted from the Red Flame Maiden's body, coalescing into a crimson fire serpent that instantly coiled around Gao Yao, the scorching heat devouring him on the spot!!

"AAAH! What is this! Fire! Fire!! It's so hot! So hot!! AAAH! Save me, Gao Yue, save me! Save me!!"

Gao Yao screamed in agony, struggling desperately and rolling on the ground!

"How dare you! You've got some nerve, hurting my brother!!" Gao Yue glared furiously and shouted, "Release me at once, or when my master arrives, you're all going to die!!"

"Master, master... Are you a three-year-old child?" Qin Heng sneered, looking at Gao Yue, and said casually, "Threatening to kill us all? Didn't your master ever tell you to open your eyes wide when you go out and see who you're dealing with before you speak?"

"Who are you!?" Gao Yue seemed to sense that something was amiss. His expression turned slightly panicked as he stared at Qin Heng, trying to remember, but he couldn't recall anything at all.

"You were just talking about someone in Japan exterminating over a thousand Self-Defense Force soldiers and ten warships, and now you don't recognize the very person?" Qin Heng sneered. "Killing you and drawing out the Soldier Master from Chongming Island actually suits me just fine! I'll take this chance to deal with him."

"Qin, Qin Xuantian! You're actually Qin Xuantian!?" Gao Yue was utterly panicked this time. Staring at Qin Heng, his face filled with shock, he exclaimed, "Impossible! How could this be? How could I have been so unlucky as to run into Qin Xuantian?!"

Gao Yue was no fool. He was well aware of how terrifying Qin Xuantian's strength was; he knew he was no match for him. In Qin Xuantian's hands, he was undoubtedly doomed!

"AAAH!!" Just then, Gao Yao let out one final, mournful scream before he turned to ash in the flames, scattering with the sea breeze, gone forever.

"Please, I beg you! Don't kill me! Please don't kill me!!" Gao Yue was so frightened that he trembled all over, his earlier arrogance gone. Tears streamed down his face as he cried out, "Grandmaster Qin, Qin Wudi! I beg you, please don't kill me!!"

"Red Flame Maiden, kill him!" Qin Heng remained unmoved, issuing the order.

"Yes, Immortal Venerable." The Red Flame Maiden nodded, her slender white fingers tensing to snap Gao Yue's neck and end his life.

"Stop! This man cannot be killed!" Suddenly, a stern shout came from the cabin. An old man with white hair and a youthful face emerged, saying, "This man must not be killed, otherwise a calamity of epic proportions will befall us!"

At the same time, an aura hundreds of times stronger than Gao Yue's erupted, instantly enveloping the entire cruise ship. It swept over with the force of a tidal wave, as if the Sea God himself had descended!

"Young lady, let him go!" The old man glanced at the Red Flame Maiden, murderous intent in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "You cannot kill this man, and neither can Qin Xuantian. It's not because of that Soldier Master, but because of someone else!"

...? The Red Flame Maiden hesitated slightly at his words.

Qin Heng's eyebrows furrowed, and he scoffed, "There isn't anyone in this world that I, Qin Xuantian, cannot kill. Even if the President of America were here, I'd kill him just the same! What does this kid count for? Kill!"
