The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1600

Jin Bao was stunned to see the group of people sprawled at his feet.

Why are all of my allies on the ground?

“W-What happened?'

“Who did this to you?”

“Quick, tell me! Who hurt all of you?”

Anxious, Jin Bao fired question after question when he finally snapped back to his senses.

“Save your breath. I did it.” An icy voice traveled from outside the room.

The simple words carried an airof dignity and intimidation.

Hearing the voice, Li Er sprang up from his seat and frantically turned to escape.

“Jin Bao, Yin Bao, stop her!” Li Er cried as he scrambled toward the window like a frightened hare, his legs moving quickly despite his pudginess.

Li Er was no fool.

Although he had no idea who the intruder was, it was clear that the other party harbored malicious intent.

Moreover, the intruder had single-handedly eliminated all the guards on duty in such a short time.

Li Er knew without a shadow of a doubt that the unwelcomed guest was skilled in martial arts.

In fact, the scene before him was proof enough that the intruder was an expert in combat.

Years of working under Ye Fan had molded Li Er into an astute man.

Had he not possessed this level of acuity, Li Er would have been sleeping with the fishes after the battle for power at Jiangdong.

The corners of Jin Bao's and Yin Bao's lips twitched involuntarily at the sight of Li Er fleeing for his life.

He's still the same old scaredy-cat. Nothing has changed at all!

However, Li Er's effort to escape was to no avail.

Just as he threw a leg through the window, the imposing voice sounded once again.

“You are Li Er, the head of Yunzhou, aren't you? I've traveled far to come here. Shouldn't you show me some hospitality as the host?”

Chuckling mirthlessly, the woman flourished her long sleeve.

Whoosh. Qi in the form of a chilling gust penetrated the still air and slammed into Li Er, who toppled off the windowsill with a yelp. An agonized moan escaped his lips.

“Mr. Li!”

“Mr. Li!”

Shocked by the turn of events, the two brothers—Jin Bao and Yin Bao—rushed to Li Er's aid.

Li Er seemed relatively unharmed. He quickly got to his feet and tossed a smile at the woman.

“Miss, I think you have the wrong person. I'm not Li Er; I'm his brother, Li San. My brother is attending to some matters overseas, so I'm afraid that he won't be back anytime soon. If you have anything you wish to convey, you can just tell me. I'll be sure to pass on the message,” Li Er lied through his teeth.

As he spoke, he gave the woman a once-over.

Blessed with arched eyebrows, clear eyes, and pearly white teeth, she was the epitome of regal beauty.

She had a smooth, fair complexion that resembled porcelain, and her nose was dainty but straight.

Her azure eyes had a beguiling charm that drew one in.

Her exquisite features suggested that she was of foreign descent.

“Are you a foreigner? Why do you look so familiar?” Li Er voiced his thoughts.

He was thoroughly perplexed. He had a sneaking suspicion that this was not his first encounter with the woman before him and put his guard up immediately.

Now that Mr. Chu was no longer around, there were no martial experts in the vicinity to protect Jiangdong. Furthermore, the Green Dragon Force had been established by Mr. Chu specifically for his wife, which meant that there was no reason for them to watch over Li Er.

Hence, it was daunting for Li Er to come face-to-face with a probable martial expert.

“Is that so? In that case, I'll just ask you.” The woman's scarlet lips parted as she spoke in an impassive tone.

“Tell me, where is Ye Fan? I believe he is otherwise known as Mr. Chu, the pride of Jiangdong.”

“Hmm? You're here for Mr. Chu?” Li Er's heart dropped at the mention of Ye Fan. “Would you mind telling me why you're looking for him?”

“That's none of your business,” she brushed him off. “You just need to tell me where he is right now.”

“About that...” Li Er trailed off with a rueful smile.

“I'm sorry, Miss, but Mr. Chu rarely shows himself. I can count on ten fingers the number of times I've seen him in the past year, so I'm afraid I can't tell you where he is at currently. I really have no idea,” Li Er explained apologetically.

The look in the woman's eyes turned cold, evidently dissatisfied with his response.
