Huang Chen frowned when he saw the female bandit and Qin Kai.

”Where the hell have you two been?! My family was being attacked and you’re screwing each other in another room?! Why did I even hire you!”

”W-What?! Attacked!? By whom?!” Qin Kai was truly puzzled, as he was not part of the Gold and Money Bandits. Furthermore, everything had happened so fast that he was still comprehending the situation.

”Why don’t you take a look for yourself?” Huang Xiao Li pointed into the room with Yuan and the bandits.

Qin Kai swallowed nervously and approached the room.

His eyes widened with shock when he saw the scene inside. One of the bodyguards was dead with a hole in his chest and the other was frozen in place with a terrified expression on his face.

”What is the meaning of this?” Qin Kai asked.

”These two are bandits from the Gold and Money Bandits. They became a bodyguard just to rob the Huang Family.” Yuan calmly explained the situation to him.

”The Gold and Money Bandits?!” Qin Kai immediately recognized their name. As someone who often works as a bodyguard, he has encountered these bandits on multiple occasions, and they were all vicious people with no morals.

Murder, robbery, corruption, rape— nothing was off the table for these bandits even if mortals were involved, hence why they were so hated and so feared.

The female bandit also took a look inside the room. Her heart throbbed so fast and hard from fear that it began hurting.

’Fortunately, they didn’t catch me in the act, so they don’t know that I am with them just yet. But if they ask that bastard, he will surely give me away!’ She calmed down slightly after realizing this, and she began plotting to kill her companion before he could speak.

However, with Yuan in the room, she didn’t dare to move just yet.

”So tell me, what were the two of you doing while my family was attacked? Are you also part of the Gold and Money Bandits?” Huang Chen narrowed his eyes at Qin Kai and the female bandit.

”What?! Hell no! There’s no way I am with those bastards!”

”T-That’s right! We were in the other room because I wanted to make love to him! I didn’t know they were bandits! I swear!” The female bandit said.

The other bandit cursed inwardly after hearing her companions’ words.

’That fucking bitch! She’s the whole reason we’re in this mess! If she didn’t make the suggestion to rob the Huang Family, we wouldn’t be here! And now she wants to act innocent while the two of us die?!’

After taking a deep breath, the male bandit exclaimed, ”That bitch is lying! She’s with us! She was the one who suggested we rob you guys, too!”

The female bandit gritted her teeth in anger, but she wasn’t willing to give up just yet.

”That’s preposterous! He’s only saying that because he’s jealous I chose Qin Kai over him! He’s been eyeing me since the beginning, too!”

”She’s lying! Her real name is Zou Nuying, and she has a high position within the Gold and Money Bandits! The reason she went to make love with Qin Kai was so that she could distract him while we robbed the Huang Family!”

”Is that so? What do you have to say to these accusations, Zou Nuying?” Huang Chen glared at her with killing intent within his gaze.

Zou Nuying swallowed nervously. She knew that she was done for and that there was no way for her to talk herself out of this situation.

Therefore, she decided to escape.

”Watch out! He’s going to attack!” Zou Nuying suddenly shouted while pointing at her companion.

Everyone there subconsciously turned to look.

’This is my chance!’

Zou Nuying suddenly retrieved two smoke bombs and smashed them on the floor, instantly filling the room with smoke that also contained some kind of material that weakened the spiritual energy in the area and even blocked Yuan’s divine sense.

She proceeded to rush towards the window, but since the entire place was filled with smoke, she could only rely on her memories.

Once she could feel the window, she smashed right through it with her body and escaped the hotel.

Yuan wanted to chase after her, but he didn’t want to leave the Huang Family behind, and he had to make sure the other bandit didn’t try to do anything funny.

”Is everyone okay?!” Huang Xiao Li’s voice resounded shortly after.

”Yes, I am okay.”

”Me too.”

Everyone there confirmed their safety.

Once the smoke finally cleared, Yuan asked, ”What should we do with him? I can kill him here if you want.”

”I want all of his information before we kill him. Dong Zhou, make him talk!”

”Yes!” Dong Zhou proceeded to drag the bandit to another room, where he would torture the bandit for all of his information.

Meanwhile, Huang Chen went to speak with the hotel managers to let them know of the situation.

The servants in the hotel cleaned up the mess and the corpse without much trouble.

Once everything was done, Huang Chen thanked Yuan for his efforts, ”Thank you, Yuan. If it hadn’t been for your sharp eyes, our Huang Family would’ve ended in a tragedy. I will definitely reward you handsomely at the end of our trip.”

Yuan shook his head and said with a smile, ”I am only doing my job as a bodyguard.”

”What should we do about the one who ran away?” Dong Zhou asked.

”I don’t want to waste time and resources looking for her in this vast place. She could be anywhere by now. However, if we run into her again, immediately kill her.” Huang Chen said.

”Yes!” All ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ full.com

”What should we do now? We’re down to three bodyguards…” Madam Huang asked sometime later.

”Dong Zhou and Qin Kai can stay here and protect you here. Since we have taken care of the bandit situation, I doubt anyone else would try to attack you guys. The one who escaped won’t dare to return, either. I can protect Senior Huang by myself when he goes outside.” Yuan said.

”I will also pay the hotel extra for their security service.” Huang Chen said.

”What about me? I also want to go with you guys!” Huang Xiao Li suddenly asked.

”Only if you promise to not cause any trouble.”

”What?! Since when have I caused any troubles?!”

”Always.” Huang Chen smiled.

Sometime later, Huang Xiao Li approached Yuan and asked him, ”Want to look around the city with me? I have already asked my father for permission.”

He turned to look at Huang Chen, who nodded his head with a bittersweet smile on his face.

”Alright, let’s look around.”

”Please take care of my daughter, Yuan.” Huang Chen said to him before they left the hotel and started wandering the city.

”What do you think about the Giant’s Continent so far?” Huang Xiao Li asked him as they looked around.

”It’s very unique, that’s for sure.” He said.

”Not just the environment, but even the people are vastly different from each other. Honestly, it feels like I am in a dream.”

Huang Xiao Li chuckled and spoke, ”That’s what I felt during my first visit to this place. However, while it’s nice to visit this place, I wouldn’t want to live here for too long. It’s simply too dangerous for human cultivators, and only powerful cultivators would dare to wander outside the cities.”

Sometime later, the two of them stopped when they noticed a group of giants surrounding what appeared to be a massive platform.

”What are they doing?” Yuan asked when he saw this.

”Ah, there must be a match going on right now,” she said.

”A match? In the middle of the city?”

”Yes. One thing you should know about giants is that they love to fight, so there are platforms placed all around the city.”

Yuan suddenly recalled the Ancestral Dragon Temple in the Ancient Dragon City.

The two of them approached the crowd to get a closer look at the match.

Once they were close enough, they could see two giants fighting each other with their bare fists. No weapon or armor could be seen.

The two giants threw fists at each other like their lives depended on it, and every time their fist struck its target, a weak ripple would sweep the place.

’Wow… What tremendous strength…’ Yuan thought to himself as he watched the giants plummet each other until one of them could no longer stand.

Once the match ended, the winner shouted, ”Who also wants to experience my strength?! I welcome all challengers! The winner will receive a Divine-rank body refining technique!”

Yuan raised an eyebrow after hearing the giant’s words.

’A Divine-rank body refining technique? That sounds like something that could benefit me…’ He thought.

”Don’t tell me you’re thinking about fighting him…” Huang Xiao Li suddenly said, almost as though she could see his thoughts.

”I wouldn’t suggest it. You’re not allowed to use any offensive techniques or treasures, so you can only fight him with your body. That giant must also be hiding his strength. After all, there’s no way he would be willing to give away a Divine-rank technique so easily.”

Yuan smiled and said, ”It’s fine. My body is sturdier than it looks. Even if I lose, I want to see for myself just how strong giants are.”

He then jumped onto the stage and said out loud, ”I will take on your challenge!”

The giants were stunned when a tiny human appeared on the stage, and after a moment of silence, they all burst out laughing.
