623 Go Back to Where You Came From!
While Qin Xi was drinking tea, Zhou Lei arrived. Qin Xi nodded and gestured for him to sit down.
Facing Qin Xi, Zhou Lei was very reserved. He did not dare to sit opposite her. He found a place not far away and sat down. He cleared his throat. “Lady Boss, why are you looking for me?”
Qin Xi looked up and sized him up, making him shiver. The hair on his body stood on end, and his palms were sweating from nervousness.
After a moment, Qin Xi said calmly, “Your team has been here for a while. How do you feel? Have you achieved what you wanted?”
Zhou Lei did not quite understand the meaning behind Qin Xi’s words. He scratched his head in embarrassment. “Yes, yes…”
They had achieved ten times more than what they wanted.
When Elder Mu asked them to come over to train, they thought that they would only learn some small tricks. Who would have thought that they would end up learning ancient martial arts?
He was sure that as long as he returned to the capital and showed off his skills, he would definitely shock everyone, including Elder Mu, the man who was once known as the God of War.
Qin Xi could see the smugness in his eyes. She clicked her tongue and said, “Aren’t you afraid?”
Zhou Lei was stunned.
“I remember that there are ancient martial family clans in the capital, right? Think about it. If you reveal that you know ancient martial arts… what do you think will happen next?”
Qin Xi did not wait for him to answer and continued.
“If the clan goes after you, my family and I will also be exposed to danger.”
With every word Qin Xi said, Zhou Lei felt a chill rising from the bottom of his feet to his head. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his heart was pounding.
Yes.
Zhou Lei remembered that the Su family, the ancient martial arts family, had a lot of power.
Over the years, the Su family had become more and more powerful and impudent in the capital. Even those respected old families would sometimes bow down to the Su family.
Just because it was an ancient martial family, the organization could only turn a blind eye to the evil they were committing. After all, the importance of ancient martial families to the country was unquestionable.
However, if the Su family found out that someone outside their family clan also knew ancient martial arts, what would they do?
After thinking this through, Zhou Lei’s face turned pale. His lips trembled for a long time, but he could not say a word.
Zhou Lei suddenly looked up at Qin Xi with a trace of fear in his eyes. “I understand, Lady Boss…”
Qin Xi smiled and narrowed her beautiful eyes.
“Don’t worry. When the team grows bigger, the time for the Su family to fall will be just around the corner.”
Zhou Lei stood up and bowed deeply to Qin Xi. “Thank you for your reminder, Lady Boss. I know what to do.”
Qin Xi nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, it’s time for you to go back and report!”
Zhou Lei was stunned and opened his mouth. “Lady Boss, you mean…”
“Go back to where you came from!”
