NOVPUBSeeing the shocked expression on Chen Nan’s face, the middle-aged man named Jiang Quan let out a meaningful smile, "It seems you have heard of the fearsome reputation of the Life-Claiming Gate!"
"Ahem!" Chen Nan cleared his throat, a mocking smile spreading over his shocked face, "I’m sorry, but what exactly is the Life-Claiming Gate?"
Jiang Quan was instantly enraged, "Are you playing with me?"
Chen Nan smiled and shrugged, "Today I’m in a terrible mood, so I need to find a way to cheer up!"
Liu Cheng shouted angrily, "Chen, you truly are audacious to the extreme, daring to insult the Life-Claiming Gate, you’re practically digging your own grave!"
"Manager Liu, I’ve changed my mind. For two hundred thousand, I’ll kill this man for you." A sharp gleam crossed Jiang Quan’s eyes as he took a firm step to appear in front of Chen Nan, his right fist clenched, large as a sandbag and covered in callouses.
"Go to hell!"
Jiang Quan’s speed was very fast, throwing a punch towards Chen Nan’s chest.
Chen Nan stood quietly there, his gaze serene like still water.
He did not dodge.
He did not resist.
He let the opponent’s fist land squarely on his chest.
Bang!
A dull thud suddenly erupted.
The next moment.
Jiang Quan let out a heart-wrenching scream, feeling as though his arm had broken.
His face filled with terror as he stumbled backward, a tidal wave rising in his heart.
It was as if the punch had not struck a human body but rather a piece of hard granite.
"What on earth are you, human or ghost?" Jiang Quan asked, looking at Chen Nan with a face full of shock.
Clearly unable to believe.
That a human chest could be this hard was spine-chilling for him, giving an almost suffocating illusion.
Liu Cheng didn’t know what had happened.
But he could see.
Jiang Quan’s face was as pale as wax, his pupils trembling, as if he had encountered something profoundly terrifying.
Not only that.
Jiang Quan’s right arm was still trembling uncontrollably.
"You should be glad I’m in a foul mood today," Chen Nan said with an irritated face, his voice emitting cold notes, "Because of that, I don’t want to make a move against you, for I fear I might accidentally kill you."
"You should be judged by the law!"
"Hmph!"
Jiang Quan snorted coldly, "I’d like to see if your flesh can withstand my dagger!" As he spoke, a sharp dagger appeared in his left hand.
The dagger wasn’t long, but it emitted a bone-chilling coldness, giving the illusion that it could easily slice through hair or cut through iron as if it were mud.
Especially under the setting sun’s glow, it emitted a golden chill.
"Die!"
Jiang Quan roared, his figure soaring like an agile cheetah, and appeared in an instant before Chen Nan, his dagger swiftly moving as it whistled through the air.
"Scram!"
Chen Nan’s eyes hardened, and he kicked out with his right foot, swift as lightning, hitting the opponent squarely in the chest.
Spurting blood, Jiang Quan flew backward through the air like a kite with its string cut, tracing a beautiful arc before crashing heavily to the ground, spewing blood while looking utterly disheveled.
He tried to stand up, but after several attempts, he failed to rise.
Just then.
A piercing wail of police sirens came from afar.
Two police cars were approaching with a howl.
The moment they saw the police cars, both Liu Cheng and Jiang Quan’s pupils trembled violently, a foreboding feeling emergi
Especially Jiang Quan.
Although he was affiliated with the Jiang Hu underworld, he had many lives on his hands!
Very soon.
Two police cars sped over, coming to an abrupt stop with a light screeching of brakes.
The car doors opened swiftly, and eight criminal police officers in crisp uniforms stepped out one by one.
Chen Nan couldn’t help but brighten up at the sight of the person leading them.
She was tall and graceful, like a stand of lithe bamboo. Her police uniform, which she wore, made her seem even more valiant, exuding a commanding presence that was impossible to ignore.
It was none other than Chen Nan’s old friend, Jiang Li, who had gone from being a patrol officer to the deputy captain of the criminal police team.
Jiang Li’s features were delicate and stunning, her eyebrows like distant mountains, the corners of her eyes slightly uptilted exuding a touch of cold sharpness, her deep eyes like the waters of a cold pool, clear and yet mysterious.
Beneath her high nose bridge, her lips were tightly pressed together, the lines beautiful, giving off a sense of determination and decisiveness.
Her face had well-defined contours, her skin as white as snow, and under the sunlight, it seemed to emit a faint glow.
Her long hair was neatly tied behind her head, gently fluttering in the breeze, adding a free and easy charm.
She stood tall with her chest out, her figure erect, her tall stature making her particularly enchanting in the police uniform.
Her cold and beautiful appearance made people wary of approaching her, yet they couldn’t help but be drawn to her allure.
Like a snow lotus blooming on an icy peak, cold but mesmerizing.
"Chen Nan, is this the murderer you mentioned?" Jiang Li glanced at Jiang Quan, who was lying on the ground, spitting blood, a hint of skepticism flashing in her cold and beautiful eyes.
Chen Nan said, "I felt a strong intent to kill from him, an intent that ordinary people can’t possess. You might want to investigate thoroughly; I’m sure there will be surprises."
His perceptive abilities were beyond those of ordinary people.
He had previously sensed the murderous intent emanating from Jiang Quan.
It was for this reason.
On his way to Nan Lake, he had given Jiang Li a call.
It could be considered delivering her a merit!
Hearing Chen Nan’s words, the other criminal police officers showed eyes full of disbelief, obviously not convinced that Chen Nan’s intuition could be so accurate.
After all.
Even these veteran criminal police officers, who had been in the field for many years, couldn’t feel the so-called murderous intent.
This kind of thing was too mysterious to be convincing.
However.
Jiang Li looked thoughtfully at Jiang Quan, because she was well aware of Chen Nan’s incredible methods.
"Brother Wang, verify this guy’s information," Jiang Li said to a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties.
She then glanced at Liu Cheng and looked toward Chen Nan, "May I know what happened?"
Chen Nan briefly explained his dispute with Liu Cheng and the fact that he had hired someone to kill.
Jiang Li knew about the trouble at Chen Nan’s herbal tea shop, and when she learned that Liu Cheng was the mastermind behind it, her eyes immediately showed disgust. With a wave of her hand, she said indignantly, "Hiring someone to kill because you can’t beat someone in business? That’s fucking shameless!"
"Come on, handcuff this law-defying scum!"
"Yes!" A young criminal officer approached with a raging demeanor and handcuffed Liu Cheng, who had a look of terror in his eyes.
At this moment.
The veteran criminal officer responsible for verifying Jiang Quan’s information suddenly cried out excitedly, "Captain Jiang, this guy is indeed a big fish—he’s got fifteen lives on his hands!"
"This person, named Jiang Quan, comes from an underworld group called the Life-Seeking Gate. He is extremely skilled at disguising and is cruel and ruthless in his methods, causing much harm. I didn’t expect him to fall into our hands today."
At these words.
All of the remaining police officers from the criminal police team couldn’t help but feel a chill run down their spines.
They looked at Chen Nan with eyes full of shock and awe.
Who could have imagined.
His intuition would be so accurate?
