Unavoidable

Chapter 16: Impossible to Defend Against

Three minutes left.

Compared to the outside, the villa's interior was even more sumptuously decorated.

Inside, there was also a large group of bodyguards in uniform suits. They had already received the signal and were rapidly pouring out.

Fu Qian's appearance here undoubtedly caused these men to be surprised and uncertain.

Without a word, Fu Qian quickly weaved through the crowd, setting off countless alarms along the way.

He ignored the calls of others, deftly dodging those who tried to stop him.

The villa instantly descended into chaos.

The piercing alarm grew more intense. Fu Qian clearly noticed a large number of bodyguards gathering at the entrance to a certain room.

One minute left.

This must be it.

The bodyguards were so tense about this area, so Miss Wen was very likely here.

Fu Qian strode forward, casually picking up a stone table and throwing it.

With a whistling sound, the table transformed into a flying disc. Its terrifying momentum forced the bodyguards to retreat, creating a path through the front.

Fu Qian followed closely, kicking the door open without hesitation.

There were two women in the room.

One, in her early twenties, had a beautiful face with delicate features, exuding the demeanor of a well-bred young lady.

She was currently sitting at a table, holding a bowl of soup, presumably about to drink it.

Most likely Wen Li.

Fu Qian unhesitatingly unleashed an Air Bullet.

Although he couldn't be sure how she died yet, one thing was certain: if she continued the action she was currently doing, it would kill her.

So, stop it.

After many days of practice, Fu Qian's accuracy was now vastly improved.

The Air Bullet directly shattered the bowl in the woman's hand. With a scream, the steaming soup instantly drenched her, turning her into a drowned rat.

At this moment, footsteps sounded from behind, and a group of people rushed in, surrounding Fu Qian.

"Who are you? Who sent you?"

At the front of the charge was a middle-aged man whose appearance bore some resemblance to the woman drinking soup.

His face was ashen, and he glared at Fu Qian as if he could devour him.

Five minutes and one second, five minutes and two seconds, five minutes and three seconds...

Fu Qian ignored him completely, silently counting.

It wasn't until five minutes and twelve seconds that the "mission failed" notification did not appear.

The soup-drinking woman was also standing there unharmed, shielded by a group of bodyguards.

Excellent!

Fu Qian was very satisfied with this outcome and looked back at the middle-aged man.

"And who are you?"

You don't know who I am?

The middle-aged man let out an enraged laugh, staring intently at Fu Qian.

"I am Wen Xiuxian. I'll ask one last time, who are you? Who sent you?"

Wen Xiuxian? Don't know him.

However, since the other party had introduced himself.

Fu Qian nodded and pointed to Captain Gu behind the crowd.

"Fu Qian, an elite member of Captain Gu's team. He sent me."

What the hell!

Schwarzenegger Gu, who was questioning his existence, almost collapsed upon hearing Fu Qian's words.

"And then..."

Fu Qian changed the subject and pointed to the soup-drinking woman.

"I saved your daughter's life!"

Huh?

Wen Xiuxian, who had been furious and was about to order them to seize both men, was stunned by Fu Qian's words.

"What do you mean?"

"Hard to understand? If you don't get it, you can ask the one behind your precious daughter."

Fu Qian pointed to the young maid dressed woman behind Wen Li.

He was now 80% sure this woman was problematic.

"Me?"

The young maid, seeing all eyes on her, became flustered for a moment.

"I don't understand what's going on, I didn't do anything!"

Seeing her desperately deny it, Fu Qian just watched without speaking.

Wen Xiuxian also seemed to realize something was amiss, looking thoughtfully at the broken bowl on the ground.

He then exchanged a glance, and two people quickly moved to restrain the maid, while others collected the remaining soup from the broken bowl.

The results came out quickly.

"It's really poisoned!"

Wen Xiuxian looked at the young maid, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"Fang Ting, why did you do this?"

"I... I really don't know..."

The maid, Fang Ting, looked dazed and desperately shook her head, denying it.

"The soup was what you cooked for Wen Li, and you say you don't know?"

"Tell me who sent you?"

"I really didn't..."

Watching the farce unfold, Fu Qian paid attention to the person involved, Wen Li.

The genius, who had just narrowly escaped death, looked a little pale, but her demeanor was calm. Perhaps she had become numb to such things.

Fang Ting kept repeating "I don't know," and Wen Xiuxian's patience seemed to have reached its limit.

After asking twice more, he directly ordered his subordinates to drag Fang Ting away, presumably to interrogate her harshly.

Just then, Fang Ting's cries of injustice suddenly stopped, and she froze in place.

After a few seconds of silence, she let out a scream, her voice filled with an indescribable madness.

The next moment, as if possessed by divine power, she actually broke free from two bodyguards, grabbed the still stunned Wen Li, and bared her pale, sharp teeth to bite down.

Snap!

A sound like tearing parchment echoed. Before the frenzied Fang Ting could bite, she was sent flying with a punch.

Facing Fang Ting's sudden attack, Fu Qian did not intervene to save her, but chose to observe.

In his opinion, while this level of surprise attack was unexpected, it did not pose a substantial threat.

He just wanted to see if there were any forces that could be utilized.

If the Wen Family couldn't even handle this, then they shouldn't even think about being powerful elites.

Judging by how twisted her body was after hitting the ground, she definitely wouldn't survive.

Fu Qian looked up. The one who had saved Wen Li was the middle-aged man beside Young Master Ye.

It seemed these people had returned after searching outside.

"She was likely hypnotized. The opponent seems to have a master in that area."

The middle-aged man crouched down to examine Fang Ting's body and nodded at Wen Xiuxian.

"Thank you, Mr. Ji."

Wen Xiuxian, still shaken, thanked the middle-aged man.

"Uncle Wen, you're too kind, it was just a small effort."

Young Master Ye finally found an opportunity to make his presence known, laughing as he stepped forward.

"With us here, Wen Li will be completely fine—"

Before he could finish, the wall on one side of the room suddenly shattered.

A massive white stone pillar, carrying a violent gust of wind, tore through the air and instantly engulfed Wen Li.

[Wen Li has died. Containment failed.]

Amidst the chaos, Fu Qian saw a strange, colossal figure through the gap in the wall.

The monster was at least three meters tall, its entire body seemingly covered in rock, its head a simple sphere with a few holes.

It was currently standing in front of a broken stone pillar, which upon closer inspection, was the one he had kicked earlier.

The broken pillar had been thrown like a javelin by the monster, covering dozens of meters and achieving a precise instant kill.

The sudden frenzy and attack of the maid earlier was not expected to succeed; it was merely a way to pinpoint the target for this creature.

Wen Xiuxian let out a earth-shattering roar, and the bodyguards finally reacted, opening fire. However, their attacks were all blocked by the thick rock plates on the monster's body.

After forcefully breaking through the obstruction, the monster plunged into the lake on one side of the villa, disappearing in an instant.
