Sold for 300, I Fight Back with Superpowers

”Shut up!” Brother Liu was furious. If he weren’t tied up so tightly right now, he would have kicked his underling a few times.

’You fucking sell me out just to save your own skin?’

Realization dawned on Su Qing, and she looked at Brother Liu with some surprise. ”So there were survivors from that gang back then!”

With that, Su Qing smiled again and looked at Brother Liu. ”Wouldn’t you call this walking right into a trap?”

Brother Liu was speechless. ’I really want to slap my past self again.’ he thought.

Su Qing ignored the men lying on the ground. She glanced at the courtyard where Li Fenghuo and Li Wan were. At the moment, both of them were still unconscious, and several men were standing guard outside the house. She directed the vines to knock the men out, then bound them, before heading to the courtyard herself.

Seeing Su Qing leave, Master Wen and the others were a bit dumbfounded. They had no idea what she was going to do next, and each of them felt a sense of unease.

Su Qing couldn’t care less how those men were feeling. She went to the courtyard where Li Fenghuo and Li Wan were and infused both of them with some green mist. Soon, the two of them regained consciousness.

”Qingqing.” The moment Li Wan opened her eyes and saw Su Qing in front of her, she was alarmed. ”Were you captured too?”

At that moment, Li Wan couldn’t bother with her own safety. She looked at Su Qing anxiously. This was her only daughter; even if something happened to her, she couldn’t let anything happen to Su Qing.

”Mom, I’m fine. Don’t worry,” Su Qing quickly reassured her.

Li Fenghuo, on the other hand, knew that Su Qing’s appearance here definitely didn’t mean she had been captured. She must have found her own way here. He had an extraordinary amount of confidence in Su Qing’s skills and abilities.

”Qingqing, those men...”

”Uncle, don’t worry, it’s fine.” Su Qing took out two cups of water she had prepared in advance and handed one each to Li Wan and Li Fenghuo. ”Drink this first.”

Su Qing had put a considerable amount of Green Liquid into the water. This Green Liquid was more than enough to devour the Gu Worms in Li Fenghuo’s and Li Wan’s bodies. It was precisely because of this Green Liquid that Su Qing paid no mind to Master Wen’s threats.

”Okay.” Although Li Fenghuo wasn’t clear on the specifics, he knew Su Qing wouldn’t make them drink water for no reason. He immediately took the cup and drank it all in one go. He then said to Li Wan, who was holding her cup and worrying about Su Qing, ”Little sis, drink the water first. Don’t worry, Qingqing and I have got this.”

”Okay.” Li Wan nodded and drank the water in her cup.

A short while later, Su Qing checked and sensed that the aura of the Gu Worms in Li Fenghuo’s and Li Wan’s bodies had completely disappeared. She then said to Li Wan, ”Mom, Uncle and I are going to go check on the situation. You stay here for now, we’ll be back in a bit.”

Li Wan nodded. ”Don’t worry, I won’t wander off.”

Su Qing smiled at Li Wan, and a wisp of gray mist quietly slipped into Li Wan’s body. Li Wan yawned and then unknowingly drifted off to sleep.

”Qingqing, your mother...” Li Fenghuo was startled to see Li Wan suddenly fall asleep.

”Don’t worry, Uncle. Mom is just going to sleep for a little while. Otherwise, I’m afraid what’s about to happen might scare her,” Su Qing said in a low voice. ”The vines around here will protect her.”

As she spoke, Li Fenghuo saw numerous vines appear around Li Wan, and his heart was instantly put at ease. ”That’s good, too.”

Then, Li Fenghuo spoke with some concern. ”Qingqing, were my people infected with that Gu Worm thing? When we were on the phone, Xiao Liu came into the office to report something to me. Next thing I knew, Xiao Liu knocked me out. When I woke up, I was here. Xiao Liu, he...”

”He was probably infected with a Gu Worm, but I’ll have to see him in person to know for sure,” Su Qing nodded. ”I think it’s not just your people, but also the person you sent to protect my cousin. He was infected with a Gu Worm, too.”

”What!” Li Fenghuo was shocked and became even more worried. ”Doesn’t that mean a lot of people have been affected? And we don’t know what the situation is with your grandma and grandpa, or your aunt.”

”Don’t worry, Uncle,” Su Qing said. ”The ones in their bodies are all Child Gu, which need to be activated by the Mother Gu to have any effect. I have the Mother Gu under control now, so even if Grandma and Grandpa really do have Gu Worms in them, it’s not a problem. I can get rid of them later. You and Mom had Gu Worms in you, too, but the water I gave you just now has already destroyed them.”

Hearing Su Qing’s words, Li Fenghuo’s heart settled. ”That’s a relief.”

Afterward, Su Qing told Li Fenghuo all about Master Wen and Brother Liu.

Li Fenghuo also knew about the human trafficking gang from before. He said in surprise, ”I can’t believe there were still survivors from that trafficking gang last year.”

Then, as if he had remembered something, Li Fenghuo quickly looked at Su Qing and asked, ”Qingqing, when you were fighting that Master Wen, did you use your plant abilities? Did those ordinary people see you?”

Su Qing rubbed her nose. ”They saw.”

Hearing this, Li Fenghuo pressed his lips together. ”We have to make sure those people can’t talk about you. And that Master Wen, we absolutely cannot let him escape. Otherwise, that man is a ticking time bomb who could pop up at any time.”

”I’ll figure something out for that,” Su Qing said to Li Fenghuo. ”Uncle, your sudden disappearance—this is something that definitely can’t be covered up.”

”I know,” Li Fenghuo said. ”You don’t have to worry about that. I can handle things on my end. The main issue is that those ordinary people saw your ability. If they go out and blab, it’ll be a problem. It could even bring you danger.”

Right now, Li Fenghuo’s biggest worry was that Su Qing’s ability to control plants would be exposed. If that happened, he was afraid many people would start coveting her power. As the saying goes, being targeted is worse than being stolen from. His niece was certainly formidable, but she couldn’t stand against a large number of people targeting her. No matter how many precautions they took, there was bound to be a slip-up eventually.

”Uncle, come on. Come with me to the other courtyard.” Su Qing pulled Li Fenghuo outside. ”Don’t worry about my mom, she’s very safe here.”

”Okay.”

When they saw Su Qing return, and with a conscious Li Fenghuo, Brother Liu and his men were so shocked they scrambled backward, trying to get away from her. They recognized this high-ranking official; they had personally watched him being captured. He had even taken the pill Master Wen gave him, and according to Master Wen, he shouldn’t have woken up without the antidote. But now, the man was walking on his own. How could they not be afraid of Su Qing?

’This young woman is even more formidable than that Master.’

Master Wen gnashed his teeth as he glared at Su Qing. Before he could speak, Su Qing asked, ”Hey, Wen. Do you have any talismans that can erase memories?”
