Chapter 340: What Kind Of Place Had He Come To?

Chapter 340: What Kind Of Place Had He Come To?

Gu Xiqiao placed Gu Xijin to the side, turning to the young man with red eyes beside her instead.

When he saw her gaze on him, his heart pounded fiercely in his ribcage. Gu Xiqiao’s actions had terrified him. “Sorry, I’m merely an ordinary person, and I’m not here to give any trouble to you. I’m also not from the Qing triad, I’m here only because Gu Xijin forced me to come here.”

His tone was calm, but there was an obvious tension in both his eyes and shoulders.

“Why would she force you to come?” Gu Xiqiao had returned to her seat, her eyes still on the young man.

Seeing that Gu Xiqiao had no intentions to kill him or harm him, the red eyed young man let out a breath of relief. Noticing that Gu Xiqiao was waiting for an explanation from him, he immediately replied, “My sister is in her hands.”

Gu Xiqiao nodded her head.

With Gu Xiqiao seemingly believing his words, his heart started to calm down. But before it could settle completely, a deep, cold and clear voice spoke, “Just now, you boosted her power levels by three times. How were you able to do that?”

When the words were spoken, the heart that had slowed to a regular beat suddenly jumped to his throat once again. He raised his head, looking at the person who had spoken, flabbergasted.

It was the man who had a cold, jade face. His dark, coal eyes were as cold as ice, and it seemed to pierce through his very soul when the man looked at him.

The young man squeezed his fist unconsciously, but replied as calmly as he could, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Jiang Shuxuan glanced at the young man, then lowered his eyes as he turned the white porcelain teacup in his hands, not saying another word.

His demeanor was indifferent, as though he didn’t really care when he asked the question in the first place.

“The First Hospital,” Gu Xiqiao said, turning to Jiang Shuxuan with a smile on her face, then to the Bai gang leader. “The VIP ward on the fifteenth floor.”

Hearing those words from Gu Xiqiao, the young man’s face paled instantly. His head snapped up, his hands trembling as something flashed in his eyes. “What are you going to do?!”

“Nothing.” Gu Xiqiao, looking at her fingers with a disinterested look. “The person behind Claude was you, wasn’t it? You also helped the Qing triad, and also the one who helped Gu Xijin? To be able to instantly triple someone’s power, your talent is indeed quite an impossible feat.”

Since Gu Xiqiao had rattled off the hospital and ward number, and could tell his abilities, the young man didn’t feel fazed now. Compared to just a moment ago, all he could feel was an unusual calm. “That’s right, that’s my ability.”

Gu Xiqiao finally straightened up in her seat, her eyes fixed on him. “I need you to do something for me.”

“Since I’ve already fallen into your hands, it isn’t like I have a choice.” The young man said, slightly bitter. “What do you want me to do? Triple your powers? My ability has a time limit, and it can hold for at most an hour. Any longer and I would fall into a state of weakness.”

“No.” Gu Xiqiao shook her head. “I don’t need your ability, what I need you to help me with is another matter. Let’s go.”

She didn’t need his ability? How was that possible? The red-eyed young man watched Gu Xiqiao walk off, disbelief clear in his eyes. There was no one who had not come to him for his ability?! Humans were all greedy creatures without exceptions, and the young man had thoroughly understood this fact in the time he had been here.

“Why are you still here?” The Bai gang leader asked, seeing the young man still rooted to the spot, snapping him out of his daze. “Miss Gu has already left.”

The young man blinked, looking at Jiang Shuxuan and Gu Xiqiao’s retreating backs. He pursed his lips, then moved to follow them without another word.

After the three had left, all the members of the Bai gang present remained motionless for a few more minutes, before finally starting to react to what they had seen. The young man beside the Bai gang leader swallowed heavily. “B-B-Boss, has Miss Gu left?”

“Yeah, she’s gone.” The Bai gang leader turned away from where the three had left, and though his voice was calm, his legs felt like jelly.

The young man looked down at Gu Xijin, who was still bound tightly by the purple lightning. The lightning around her told him that what had transpired was definitely not a dream. “Then… what should we do with this?”

“Can you untie that? Just leave it and wait for Miss Gu to come back.” The Bai gang leader said quietly.

Then he took out his phone, taking a picture of Gu Xijin in that state.

[Headquarters Group]

America’s Bai Gang: [JPEG] This person wanted to play lightning with Miss Gu, and she did this to her. Not only did Miss Gu come here, she shocked everyone the moment she did. The United States has already been broken by her.

Big Boss Bai: Miss Gu’s methods are as vicious as ever.

Wu Hongwen: Playing with lightning with her? Woah, this person’s really digging her own grave!

Wu Hongwen: Wait a sec, isn’t that Gu Xijin?!

Xiao Yun: Can you guys fight properly?

Peace Squad Member: I came here when I saw Miss Gu. Sigh, sadly we’re not capable enough, otherwise we’d also go over there with her, since it looks so fun.

Gu Xiqiao: Sure, come over tomorrow.

Everyone: Miss Gu!

Wu Hongwen: Can we really come?!

Yao Jiamu: Everyone should take the chance to properly train during this time.

The American leader of the Bai gang wiped the imaginary cold sweat off his face when he saw the piles of messages in the group.

“Boss, what’s the matter?” The same young man by his side asked when he saw the state the gang leader was in.

“The entire Peace Squad will be coming.” There was a little distress in his heart as he said that. “Miss Gu alone is already scary enough, if you add on the entire Peace Squad… it looks like things are getting real interesting soon.”

To think that even the Peace Squad were coming here, the Bai gang leader felt like something big would definitely be happening in America.

“Where are you going?” The young man with blood-red eyes asked as they both got into a black car. The back seat door was open, and he couldn’t help but ask in a low voice, looking at Jiang Shuxuan.

Jiang Shuxuan narrowed a pair of cold eyes, a layer of frost appearing in them as he said, “Believe it or not, I can make it so that you’re unable to say another word from now on.”

The cold of his voice seemed to pierce straight to the bottom of his heart when he heard those words!

The blood drained from the young man’s face, and he took a step back unwittingly. Gu Xiqiao, who was playing with her phone, raised her head and looked towards him, the indifferent expression still on her face. “Don’t think of playing any tricks.”

The two of them were not affected at all?! The red-eyed young man was shocked. Who the heck were they? How were they so terrifying?!

Only now did he truly feel the horror of the two in front of him, it was like he had been digging his own grave the entire time. He hadn’t had a single doubt that the man could kill him with just a look, and the will to fight against them was completely lost as he meekly sat in the back seat of the car.

He had wanted to ask Gu Xiqiao where they were going, but at this moment, the young man didn’t dare to utter another word in this situation.

The two people in front were too mysterious, and too terrifying.

The car finally came to a stop outside First Hospital, and the group went up to the fifteenth floor. When they reached the place, the young man was wary. He looked towards Gu Xiqiao. “What do you want to do here?”

“I’m sure Gu Xijin didn’t tell you, but Claude is in prison right now,” Gu Xiqiao said as she looked at him.

“He’s in prison?” The red-eyed young man repeated, disbelief in his voice. How was that possible?! Claude had obviously received his help and had taken over as head of the Dickens family, how could he be in prison? But he also knew that Gu Xiqiao had no reason to deceive himself.

He took out his phone immediately and walked a bit further. The news that was being reported at the moment was really about Claude’s dismissal and Klaus’ rise to power.

In the past two days, he had spared no effort in order to take care of his sister, and had not been paying attention to the outside world. His eyes were wide as he continued to watch. How was that possible? How was someone able to bring Claude down?!

“I will do anything you ask me to, but I have one request.” The blood-eyed young man finally said after coming back to himself. “Save my sister.”

“Of course.” Gu Xiqiao looked at him strangely. “What did you think I came here for in the first place?”

The young man breathed out a sigh of relief, but before he could fully relax, Gu Xiqiao’s next words were like a slap in his face. “Go and go through the discharging procedures.”

“Discharge?” His head snapped up. “Have you lost your mind?!”

He felt the air being squeezed out of his lungs the moment he said that, as though a pair of invisible hands were wringing his neck. Jiang Shuxuan raised his head slowly, his words were slow as he said, “Go and go through the discharging procedures.”

Frightened by Jiang Shuxuan, the young man went and did as instructed without another word.

“Wait, you haven’t paid for the three days of hospital stay.” Gu Xiqiao tossed him a card and gave him the pin number for it. “Go on.”

It was a diamond credit card that had at least a credit limit of five million, and she just tossed it at him like that so casually. The young man gave Gu Xiqiao a glance before turning around again. The girl was so generous, she shouldn’t be out to harm his sister, was the thought in his mind as he left.

“You can’t be too kind to these kinds of people,” Jiang Shuxuan said, tearing his eyes away from the young man. He lowered his head slightly, the corner of his mouth curling upwards.

Gu Xiqiao smiled at him. “You’re right Brother Jiang, as always.”

A nurse pushed a cart over, and Jiang Shuxuan pulled her to the side. “What is it that you need his help with?” He had been brooding about it since he heard her say these words.

“It’s one thing that has to be him doing.” Gu Xiqiao was insistent.

“Oh,” Jiang Shuxuan replied indifferently, but his face had obviously gone a hint colder.

Gu Xiqiao noted the change, and smiled at him again. “However, the reason is because of you.”

Jiang Shuxuan felt his heart skip a beat at that, and the dejected feeling faded. “What can he do?”

“I don’t know either.” Gu Xiqiao sighed. “Let’s go, I’ll get his sister.”

When the blood red eyed young man came back, Gu Xiqiao had already taken his sister out. Not only had she taken the girl out, his sister was also acting friendly with Gu Xiqiao. His eyes widened as he pulled his sister, his voice low but cautious, “Joyner!”

Gu Xiqiao merely smiled at him when she heard him, and said nothing.

Seeing as though she knew what was going on in his mind, the young man was a little embarrassed.

The black car slowly pulled onto the road and traffic, and Gu Xiqiao leaned back against the chair she was sitting in. “I’m still not used to the fact that they drive on the opposite side.”

“We’ll be going back in just another two days,” Jiang Shuxuan replied softly.

She smiled, then continued to chat with Jiang Shuxuan in a low voice. The red-eyed young man and his sister naturally didn’t understand what they were saying, as they were talking in Chinese.

The young man looked down at his sister, and spoke in Hebrew. “Do you know who that person is, Joyner? Why did you just simply follow her out?!” There was still a stab of fear that went through him when he thought about it.

“I can feel that she’s not a bad person, Brother. She’s better than the two before this.” Joyner’s clear, blue eyes that resembled translucent glass had no hint of doubt as she spoke.

The red-eyed young man knew that his sister had a strong perception of a person’s state of mind, and so when he heard this, he fell silent.

The car finally came to a stop in front of a villa.

The group came down from the car, Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan entered the residence, guiding the other two in.

As soon as they went in, Cecily came out to greet them. “Qiao Qiao, where have you both been?” Then her gaze fell on the young man. “Huh, who are these two?”

“New members.” Gu Xiqiao glanced at Cecily. “I’ll take a shower and come down later.”

“New members? The Peace Squad’s?” Once getting affirmation from Gu Xiqiao, she stiffened.

Jiang Shuxuan spared her a glance, before he too went upstairs.

Cecily sat down on the sofa, her posture still stiff as she looked at the young man. “Who are you? What’s your name, and where did you come from?”

“Alang, my name is Alang. This is my sister, Joyner,” The young man—Alang, said in a low voice.

Cecil stood and watched Gu Xiqiao and Jiang Shuxuan disappear upstairs, before turning to look at his sister. “Sis, do you have to be so forceful in your questioning?”

“Forceful? Do you know that he’s a new member of the Peace Squad?” Cecily’s eyes were still on Alang, as though she wanted to see all the secrets that he was hiding inside.

“A new member of the Peace Squad?” Cecil turned his eyes on Alang now. “F*ck, I’m so freaking jealous of you. What abilities do you have that caught her eyes? Let’s test it out!”

As he said that, he floated up in mid-air.

Alang, who had been startled as though he had walked into an alien world: “…” What kind of place had he come to?
