Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

Luo Yu, with Chen Long by her side, hadn't even reached the door.

When she heard a clamor coming from outside.

"Hmm?"

"Qin Lan?"

"What's going on."

Luo Yu recognized the voice of a woman and quickened her pace.

"Come on, let's go out and see."

Reaching the outside of the Howling Wolf Bar, she saw Qin Lan and Jia Lan, two slender beauties, by the roadside, surrounded by nine men, not allowed to leave.

They were in the midst of an argument.

"Qi Sheng, what exactly do you want!"

"You're stopping us on the street and not letting us go. Is there no law?"

Qin Lan widened her Beautiful Eyes, furiously staring at the man taking the lead opposite her, dressed in a floral shirt, slick and greasy.

Unlike the gentleness she showed to Luo Yu, Qin Lan now was serious and angry.

The man in the floral shirt let a sly smile spread across his lips.

"Lanlan, my love for you is as clear as day and night. I've been pursuing you for three months already. How can you remain so indifferent?"

"Exactly, exactly, our brother Qi has been courting you earnestly for a month now, how can you be as blind as a bat?"

The other eight men, each looking like a spoiled rich kid, chimed in one after another.

"What's wrong with you, woman? Our brother Qi has wealth and influence, and is moreover a Martial Artist. His brother is the city's top genius. And you? You're just an ordinary person with a pretty face and a small, insignificant company. What reason do you have to refuse brother Qi?"

"Nowadays, every woman is too proud for her own good, forgetting her status and place."

"I advise you not to be ungrateful."

"Shut up, all of you!" the man in the floral shirt scolded his companions, "Spitting out nothing but trash from your dog mouths, jabbering away. What if you scare our Lanlan?"

"Lanlan, don't take their words to heart. I would never be so rude to you. You have to believe in my sincerity."

The young master forced a smile at Qin Lan, with a fervent glint in his eyes.

Ever since he chanced upon Qin Lan once again when outside, he hadn't been able to forget her. The fact that such a beauty existed in the city, and she was clearly a 'greenhorn' running a small company, made him believe that it would be his loss not to have her as his woman.

Most importantly, the woman was not a martial artist and had no backing, making it much easier to get his hands on her.

Qin Lan sneered:

"Qi Sheng, there's no need for them to play good cop while you play bad cop. I, Qin Lan, have made it clear to you many times that I do not like you. Please stay away from me, and stop with these childish tricks."

"You bitch! How dare you talk to our brother Qi like that!"

A young man with tattooed arms, agitated and menacing, seemed ready to charge over.

The other young men also showed their ferocious demeanors.

"It's your good fortune that our brother Qi's taken a liking to you. Don't shamelessly reject the face he's giving you."

Qi Sheng turned to scold them.

"Will you all damn well shut up! What do you think you're doing?"

"I don't need you meddling in my affairs."

"Elder brother, this woman just doesn't know what's good for her. Just leave her to me. I'll make sure to discipline her properly so she understands," one of them said.

"What if she disobeys? A few beatings will do. And if she still doesn't listen, just beat her more."

"Heh."

The eight men, one by one, had vicious expressions, rubbing their hands in anticipation, enclosing Qin Lan and Jia Lan in the center.

"You bitch, we really can't stand it anymore. Our brother is such an excellent man, doting on you day in and day out, and you still put on a cold face—who are you trying to impress?"

Qin Lan and Jia Lan's eyes showed panic, their bodies slightly trembling.

Ordinary girls are not accustomed to being surrounded by nine men, and clearly, none of them were decent people.

Their hearts were filled with fear.

They couldn't help but regret having earlier refused Luo Yu's offer to escort them home.

Qin Lan had indeed not expected that Qi Sheng, who had always been as persistent as chewing gum and continued to harass her despite her rejections, without ever threatening or tempting her, would today reveal his true colors—the hidden knife was showing.

At this moment, Qi Sheng stepped in front of everyone and said to Qin Lan:

"Lanlan, these eight aren't my subordinates, they're all descendants of major families in the city."

"If you don't accept my sincerity, I really can't guarantee what they might do, nor do I have any reason to protect you."

Qin Lan bit her luscious lips, feeling Jia Lan trembling beside her. Yet, she stood firm alongside her, bravely facing all of this.

Her eyes hardened.

"Qi Sheng, dare you cause trouble in public without fear of the law's punishment? Have you no respect for the law?"

Qi Sheng shook his head.

"Lanlan, do you think I'm that kind of person?"

"I'm not the one who wants to do anything, but if you keep rejecting me, I can't control these brothers who want to stand up for me."

The young men sneered: "We're not brother Qi with all his manners. We don't know any rules. If you don't accept the face given to you, don't blame us."

"What is the law? We are the law."

"In this city, no one dares to interfere with what we want to accomplish."

"Look at the street; there are so many people around. Who would dare to help you?"

Qin Lan's gaze turned icy, realizing that this scum would not relent until they achieved their goal.

She patted Jia Lan's hand.

"Don't be afraid."

"I won't drag you into this."

"Qi Sheng, I'll stay here if I must, but let my little sister go first."

The man in the floral shirt shrugged.
