Dammit!!

Someone actually fired a gun!?

Both Li Tianlong and Xu Chong were shocked, their eyes wide in utter disbelief.

Qin Heng could not die now! The contract hadn't even been signed yet! Bringing Qin Heng here was all for this contract worth fifty billion. A living Qin Heng was valuable; a dead Qin Heng was not only worthless but would also bring about huge troubles!

Just then, Qin Heng's head moved slightly, and he actually dodged the bullet.

BANG!

The bullet cut through the air and struck the floorboard, not hitting Qin Heng.

Instantly, both Li Tianlong and Xu Chong breathed a sigh of relief. What a lucky break. It was good that Qin Heng had just happened to tilt his head; otherwise, he would have been done for! Neither of them believed Qin Heng had dodged the bullet on his own. After all, the speed of a bullet is too fast! Especially since the gun was so close to Qin Heng's head, it would have hit almost the instant it was fired. No one could dodge it! So, in their view, Qin Heng's ability to dodge the bullet must have been due to sheer luck!

BOOM!

Suddenly, another loud noise erupted! Qin Heng had punched the bodyguard who just fired to the ground, breaking his arm so it twisted unnaturally. He then kicked the other bodyguard, knocking him unconscious. Both pistols clattered to the ground. Seeing trouble, Xu Chong immediately picked up the two fallen pistols to prevent them from falling into Qin Heng's hands.

"This is quite an unconventional welcome gift," Qin Heng said, kicking the downed bodyguard aside and turning to Li Tianlong. "Mr. Li, I initially said I only wanted your Tianlong Group, but now I don't think that's enough. Not only must you transfer the Tianlong Group to my family, but all those villas, luxury cars, gold, and silver in your name must also be handed over to me. Otherwise, you can't afford the price."

"Price?" Li Tianlong scoffed. "It seems that gunshot didn't scare you. Do you still not believe it? Your Daqin Group is in imminent danger. What price can you possibly make me pay?"

"The price is that I will exterminate your entire household!" Qin Heng stated indifferently, his tone calm, as if discussing something trivial. "The Lis, the Tianlong Group—I can annihilate them with a wave of my hand."

For Qin Heng, unless it was a force at the national level, everyone else was as insignificant as chickens and dogs. He could easily kill the leader of any such force. With the leader dead, the rest would scatter like monkeys from a fallen tree, posing no threat.

"Hahaha! Who do you think you are? They say 'like father, like son,' but it seems that's just a joke!" Li Tianlong laughed derisively at Qin Heng. "Your father, Qin Cheng, is a legend in the business world, but to think he raised such a worthless son as you, one who only knows how to indulge in fantasies all day."

He didn't believe Qin Heng's words at all, nor did he believe that wiping out an entire household could actually happen in reality.

"Director Li, this kid seems to be playing dumb," Xu Chong frowned. He suddenly raised the two pistols, their dark muzzles aimed at Qin Heng, and said solemnly, "Kid, I'm not like those two bodyguards. I have Hidden Force cultivation, and my hands are steady. I guarantee I can shoot you between the eyes, definitely not your nose."

"Qin Heng, you have no other choice!" Li Tianlong also sneered. "Sign this contract. It can be life-saving money for the Qins. Otherwise... Uh, what, what, what!?"

He suddenly cried out in surprise. Qin Heng had somehow rushed in front of Xu Chong and grabbed both pistols Xu Chong held, his thumbs plugging the barrels.

"A Martial Artist relies on handguns?" Qin Heng shook his head in disappointment. He exerted a light force with his palms, and the two pistols suddenly twisted and deformed, squeezed like clay in his grip, with bits even oozing through his fingers.

"You, you, you!!" Xu Chong stammered, his face a mask of shock.

In his incredulous gaze, Qin Heng effortlessly snatched the pistols, casually molding them in his hands, and eventually rolled the two into a single steel ball.

To mold steel like clay, to roll steel into a ball!! It was unfathomable! He could easily mold two pistols forged from fine steel into something like clay and play with them! Such power—could it truly belong to a human? The 'pistols' that so many Martial Artists feared, even despaired over! In front of this man, they were like toys, utterly useless! How could this be possible? How could such a thing happen!? How could humans this powerful exist in the world!?

"AAAHHH!!" Xu Chong roared. He channeled his Internal Force and lunged, his hands forming claws, Internal Force bursting forth as he aimed for Qin Heng's head. At this point, all I can do is give it my all!

WHOOSH WHOOSH!

The formidable power and Hidden Force made the air shriek. A glint of hope flashed in Xu Chong's eyes. Maybe Qin Heng used all his strength destroying those two pistols! Maybe he doesn't have much power left now. I might still have a chance!

However, Qin Heng simply raised his palm and casually slapped forward.

BOOM!

Before Xu Chong's attack could even reach Qin Heng, he felt as if he'd been hit by an oncoming truck. His entire body flew backward, crashing into the wall where he hung for a moment before slowly sliding to the ground.

THUD!

Xu Chong landed on his knees, kowtowing repeatedly. "Grandmaster! So you're a Grandmaster! I was blind, failing to recognize Mount Tai! I didn't realize I was in the presence of a Grandmaster!!"

Internal Force piercing through the body, sending a person flying like a picture hung on a wall! This was something only a Grandmaster of Transcendence could achieve! Xu Chong could never have imagined that Qin Heng, only seventeen, would be a Martial Arts Grandmaster!! Too terrifying!

"What! Xu Chong, you say he's a Martial Arts Grandmaster!?" Li Tianlong stared at Qin Heng, his face filled with utter disbelief. "How is this possible!?"

Incredible, utterly incredible!! At Li Tianlong's level, he had a considerable understanding of Martial Dao circles. Martial Arts Grandmasters were the pinnacle of the Martial Dao, the limit of martial arts as understood by ordinary people. Aside from the legendary Great Grandmasters, Martial Arts Grandmasters were the ultimate power among humans! The total number of Martial Arts Grandmasters probably didn't even exceed ten! Each one was a mighty figure capable of holding sway over a region, able to ensure a family's prosperity for a century without decline! Moreover, in the past two years, the country had been paying increasing attention to the development of the Martial Dao. The status of Martial Arts Grandmasters had also risen accordingly! Even the Family Heads of the four great families of Tianhai had to treat Martial Arts Grandmasters with utmost respect! Otherwise, a single word from a Grandmaster could lead to the destruction of the four great families! They weren't even on the same level! How could Qin Heng possibly be a Martial Arts Grandmaster of the Transcendence Realm!? Li Tianlong couldn't believe it. He didn't want to believe it!

"Sending a person flying like a picture hung on a wall—that's something only a Martial Arts Grandmaster can do!" Xu Chong knelt on the ground, trembling as he said, "Director Li, you should know this."

Upon hearing this, Li Tianlong's eyes widened suddenly as if he had realized something. Then his legs went weak, an icy chill seeping through him as if he'd been plunged into a cavern of ice.

It really is... truly a Martial Arts Grandmaster! Heavens!! I actually tried to threaten a Martial Arts Grandmaster!? And a seventeen-year-old one at that! One who might very well break through the limits of the Martial Dao and become an ultimate Great Grandmaster in the future!? This is courting death!!

THUD!

Li Tianlong also knelt, his attitude completely reversed. His expression was utterly servile as he kowtowed at Qin Heng's feet. "Grandmaster Qin, I will do as you wish. Starting tomorrow, the Tianlong Group and all my assets will be transferred to the Daqin Group!"

There's still a chance to live if I submit now! Resisting further means certain death!! Only now did Li Tianlong truly awaken. Qin Heng's words, "I will exterminate your entire household," were no empty threat! It was the absolute truth! A Martial Arts Grandmaster could undoubtedly do as they said!

Qin Heng looked down indifferently at Li Tianlong and Xu Chong, who were kneeling on the ground, shivering uncontrollably. He stood with his hands behind his back, like a Heavenly God looking down from on high.

"There are always insignificant ants in this world who fancifully attempt to defy the heavens. Often, they only come to their senses when death looms. You two aren't too bad; you haven't reached that point. There's still hope for you."
