Undead Mage with No Skill Cooldown-Chapter 537 - 534: I Advise You to Get a New Batch
"If you want to be my daughter’s bodyguard, you need at least some combat skills, right?" Qin Lie stated bluntly.
"I thought I already proved myself." Lu Ran responded.
Qin Lie shook his head.
He said, "That’s different, my daughter just said it, but I won’t believe it unless I see it with my own eyes. Are you really that good, or is it just a way to get close to my daughter? Only by testing it myself will I know."
Lu Ran looked at Qin Lie speechlessly.
This feeling was really strange.
He was quite familiar with Qin Lie, but suddenly having such a prickly conversation with him felt like a dream.
It’s like knowing a particular friend very well.
Suddenly, he seemed to become another person, and that unreal feeling is indescribable unless experienced personally.
"Alright, alright, let’s just try it out. How would you like to test it? Let’s do it directly." Lu Ran said.
The reaction confused Qin Lie.
Qin Lie’s attitude just now was rather unceremonious.
And his words were barbed.
Anyone else would have been furious.
Even if not furious, they would definitely feel uneasy.
But Lu Ran’s reaction was so casual, as if it was just banter between old friends.
"Have we met before?" Qin Lie asked.
"Probably." Lu Ran said casually.
But what he was thinking was.
I did meet Qin Lie, but not this version of you.
Qin Lie didn’t dwell on this topic.
He stared at Lu Ran for a moment.
Said, "I’ve had these bodyguards for a long time, pick one and if you beat them, I’ll believe in your strength."
Oh?
Lu Ran glanced at these bodyguards around him.
Lu Ran could clearly see that these people were at least former special forces.
That faint murderous aura they’ve got can’t be cultivated by ordinary people through mere training.
But even so.
They can’t possibly compare to Lu Ran.
It’s simply not a fight in the same league.
Lu Ran is invincible!
Not to mention these people, even under heavy artillery bombardment, Lu Ran would remain unscathed!
But since Qin Lie suggested it, let’s play along.
Lu Ran chuckled and said, "These are your personal bodyguards? I suggest you get a new batch."
Hmm?
Qin Lie was stunned and asked, "What do you mean? Why change them?"
Lu Ran casually said, "What else could it mean? Because they’re too weak. If someone like me had any designs on you, you wouldn’t last three minutes."
These words... outrageous!
Qin Lie’s face suddenly darkened.
He said, "Such boastful words, even if you have some skills, speaking so recklessly means you’re not someone truly promising."
The two spoke with a sharp edge.
Even Qin Wuyao, standing aside, was getting a headache listening.
"Dad, don’t say that. Lu Ran isn’t..." Qin Wuyao wanted to mediate but didn’t know how to interject the conversation.
She could only continue saying, "I’ve seen Lu Ran’s strength with my own eyes. He’s really strong. I also know the capabilities of your bodyguards, but compared to Lu Ran, they do seem a bit lacking. Lu Ran is really strong. Didn’t you hear me say he threw a big black bear away!"
This explanation is actually pointless.
Because without seeing it firsthand, everything is just hearsay. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
It doesn’t matter whether to believe it or not, some things can only be felt through direct observation, to truly grasp that sense of pressure!
Similarly,
Qin Lie sneered and dismissed it, his personal bodyguards also looking provocatively at Lu Ran.
They heard Lu Ran’s words very clearly too.
That was outright insulting to them!
"Enough talk, Lu Ran, pick one, beat them first, and let me see if your skills are as sharp as your witty remarks." Qin Lie directed his gaze at Lu Ran and said.
Lu Ran lazily stood where he was.
He glanced around at the bodyguards and said, "No need to pick, I just said, they’re just a ragtag bunch, nothing worth choosing from, let’s get it over with all at once."
Such arrogance!
This time, even Qin Lie, along with all his bodyguards, were nearly fuming in anger.
Everybody looked at Lu Ran with fire in their eyes.
Qin Lie glared.
He said, "Wasting my time with you is such a foolish move, go on, disable him and throw him out. Rest assured, for saving my daughter, I’ll give you a sum of money as gratitude, but now, teaching you a lesson is a must!"
With a command.
The two bodyguards closest to Lu Ran clenched their fists and walked over with sinister smiles.
While the other bodyguards, stayed put and watched the scene.
They didn’t think Lu Ran could gain any advantage in a one-on-two fight.
Lu Ran glanced at them, chuckled.
Then rather than retreating, he stepped forward, closing in proactively.
Then
Bang!
He punched at the same time!
Both fists landed on the chests of two of them at once.
Of course, Lu Ran had already held back his power; it was like a gentle tap otherwise, with those two punches.
These two would probably explode on the spot!
And the result?
Boom~
Their bodies, as if hit by a truck, flew backwards!
They crashed into the distant wall, sliding down slowly.
Judging by their grimacing faces.
Even if they weren’t knocked out, they definitely couldn’t stand anymore.
Whoosh~
All of Qin Lie’s bodyguards instantly turned solemn.
Lu Ran said apologetically, "Sorry, I already held back 90% of my strength, didn’t expect your guys still couldn’t take it."
In all honesty.
This wasn’t Lu Ran being sarcastic, he was genuinely speaking from the heart!
Of course, it wasn’t 90% less force, it was at least reduced by nine hundred ninety-nine percent!
Otherwise.
This place might already be covered with blood splatter.
Of course.
Qin Lie and the others couldn’t comprehend what Lu Ran meant.
"Kid, you’ve got some skills, but your way of speaking is really grating." Qin Lie said with a slight frown.
But it was evident.
Qin Lie had already acknowledged Lu Ran’s strength.
After all, in a blink, with two punches, he took down two of his bodyguards.
That strength was evident and undeniably strong!
Lu Ran waved off, saying, "Just stating the truth, estimate you guys don’t believe me, how about this, like I said earlier, someone like me, in three minutes or so, can do as I wish, but worry not, just a metaphor, I won’t actually kill you."
After saying this.
Lu Ran directly lifted his foot, walking towards Qin Lie.
Qin Lie’s expression turned serious, rising swiftly.
Some of the bodyguards stayed behind to protect Qin Lie.
And the rest, in greater numbers, moved to surround Lu Ran.
Lu Ran estimated in his mind.
If a fight breaks out, should he, by mistake, not hold back, and some get hurt, that wouldn’t look good.
Thus.
In that case, might as well take them all on at once.
Lu Ran shifted his steps, moving towards the right front.
