167: Chapter 167 I have no say in this!
Qian Lei looked at Li Yu with a calm and composed expression, tugged at his name tag, and said, "Young people are prone to being impulsive, I understand that, but you cannot bear the consequences of such impulses."
"Out of consideration for you also being a Breeder, I'll kindly remind you that there are some people you cannot afford to provoke. Just do me a favor and let this matter go. Besides, your sister is fine now."
Li Yu looked at Qian Lei and suddenly started laughing.
"What a joke! Just because you failed to kill someone, you think it can be treated as if nothing happened? There is no such thing in this world! I am determined to kill this beast, and none of your favors hold any weight here."
As he spoke, his gaze turned cold. He swept a glance at Qian Lei, then scanned over Mother Fang and Fang Xiaolei, saying, "Anyone who wants to stop me, feel free to try."
Li Yu slowed his pace, gripped the sword with both hands, raised it slowly, and pointed the tip toward the Poison-Tailed Leopard.
Fang Xiaolei panicked and looked to her mother for help.
Mother Fang shrieked, "This is outrageous! A Breeder from Bright Moon Company actually wants to kill a client's beast; this is simply outrageous!"
She raised her hand and immediately summoned her own beast.
It was a Thunder-Running Lizard the size of a calf, with a silver-white body and lightning wrapping around its four claws—a Silver Rank 4 beast.
No one expected that this woman, who was dressed like a poodle—ah, no, dressed like a noble lady—was actually a Silver Rank Beast Tamer.
"Take care of that little beast for me!"
As soon as Mother Fang finished speaking, the Thunder-Running Lizard erupted with lightning and charged toward Li Yu. The thunder roared, capable of easily tearing apart any life form below the Silver Rank.
This violent attack shocked the surrounding crowd, causing them to retreat one after another, crying out that she was "crazy."
Mother and daughter, one wanted to kill, and the other also wanted to kill.
"Brother! Watch out!" Li Meng exclaimed.
Zhou Ya turned pale with fright.
Chen Qing's eyes turned cold. Her figure appeared behind the Thunder-Running Lizard. She grabbed its tail, ignored the lightning, swung the Thunder-Running Lizard violently into the air, and then slammed it down heavily.
Bam! Bam! Bam...
After several continuous, wild slams, the entire battle platform shook.
The surroundings fell silent.
"No, no, impossible... Is she even human? This..." Mother Fang stared at Chen Qing in disbelief, unable to understand how such a small frame could unleash such powerful strength.
Yet at this moment, Li Yu's sword also descended. With a "crack," the sword slashed through the Poison-Tailed Leopard's neck. Its head tumbled down, and blood sprayed out in spurts like an opened faucet.
A thick scent of blood permeated the surroundings.
He really killed it!
Everyone wore expressions of shock, their gazes toward Li Yu filled with suspicion and uncertainty.
Fang Xiaolei suffered a backlash. The color drained from her face, turning it ash-gray, and she opened her mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Ah! Daughter!" Seeing this, Mother Fang was alarmed and rushed over, crying and screaming.
Li Yu ignored her, handed the sword back to Chen Qing, and turned to leave with his sister.
"Stop, you stop right there!" Mother Fang shrieked, glaring at Li Yu with hatred. Then, she looked at Qian Lei and shouted excitedly, "Qian Lei, you and our Old Fang have been friends for many years. Are you just going to watch while someone bullies his daughter?"
"Aren't you an Intermediate Cultivator at Bright Moon Company? How can you not even handle an Intern!"
Qian Lei had already been slighted by Li Yu and was feeling very unhappy. Now, Mother Fang's words attracted the gazes of those around them, making him feel even more embarrassed.
Besides that, Mother Fang also mentioned a very valuable piece of information.
An Intern!
Thinking that Li Yu was just an Intern, Qian Lei immediately felt confident again. He adjusted his collar, stood up, and shouted at Li Yu, "Stop right there!"
"Do you have some advice?" Li Yu asked expressionlessly.
"Tell me, which floor and which hall are you from, and what is your supervisor's name? I want to see if your supervisor still manages things!"
Qian Lei strode toward Li Yu.
"Seventh Floor, Hall 5. The supervisor is named Song Wan. Feel free to go and report me," Li Yu said calmly.
"Fine, fine, fine. Hall 5, right? Song Wan, you just wait. I'm going to call him over right now. If I can't manage you, I'll let him do it!"
As Qian Lei spoke, he took out his phone and opened the software. Before he could find what he was looking for, he heard a voice like a lion's roar.
"Why the hell should I care!"
Hum—
The massive volume made Qian Lei's head buzz. He turned his head and saw a fat man with his hands on his hips, glaring at him.
"Who are you? Are you sick in the head!"
"Yes! A major illness, the kind where I won't feel comfortable unless I beat you up!" Supervisor Song said, hands on his hips. "Weren't you looking for me? I'm here. Speak."
"Looking for you?"
Qian Lei was confused at first, but then he saw Supervisor Song's name tag.
"You are Song Wan from the Seventh Floor, Hall 5?"
"I don't hide my name, nor do I change my surname. What do you have to say!" Supervisor Song said with a stiff face, glaring at Qian Lei. In the past, he wouldn't have dared to treat an Intermediate Cultivator like this.
But now...
He had Father Li under his command; he didn't need to care about any Breeder's attitude.
Qian Lei pointed at Li Yu not far away and shouted, "This Intern under your command is very arrogant. As a Breeder, he actually killed a client's beast in front of so many people!"
"Killed well! Killed beautifully!"
Now, Qian Lei was stunned. The Fang family mother and daughter, who had originally thought someone was coming to stand up for them, were also stunned.
Only the surrounding Breeders looked as if this was only natural.
A Breeder's level determines their status, and at Bright Moon Company, a supervisor's status is determined by the quality of the Breeders under them.
Don't look down on Supervisor Song just because he is an obscure little supervisor; he has a god-tier figure like Li Yu under him—no, it should be said that he is serving a god-tier figure like Li Yu.
To some extent, he is the sole representative for Li · light of the city · great contributor to Ningyang City · s-rank new species specialist · Yu.
Even those Senior Cultivators on other floors have to lower their heads a bit when they see Supervisor Song and politely call him "Supervisor Song."
Qian Lei was so angry at Supervisor Song's words that his hands trembled. He pointed at Supervisor Song, his face flushed red, and cursed, "Crazy! This is simply crazy! Being this arrogant, do you think you are that Li Yu!"
Supervisor Song's expression turned strange.
Li Yu, Zhou Ya, and the surrounding Breeders all looked at him with complex expressions.
"Why are you all looking at me?" Qian Lei asked, frowning.
"Are you nearsighted?" Supervisor Song asked.
"So what if I'm nearsighted? Does being nearsighted mean I can't be a Breeder?"
"Alright then..."
Supervisor Song sighed inexplicably and pointed toward the door, saying, "Go see for yourself, and talk to me after you've seen it."
Qian Lei looked at Supervisor Song suspiciously. Seeing Supervisor Song still waving his hand there, he realized he was losing face, so he snorted heavily and walked toward Li Yu and the others.
When he got close, the blurry figures began to come into focus.
Qian Lei stopped, blinked, and his expression shifted from anger to astonishment, and then from astonishment to confusion.
Facts prove that after experiencing a huge shock, people will fall into a state of confusion.
"You... Li Yu?" Qian Lei asked.
"Yes."
"Aren't you an Intern?"
"Who said I was an Intern?" Li Yu asked in return.
Qian Lei thought carefully. His gaze shifted to Fang Xiaolei, then to Mother Fang; these were the two people who had been shouting that the young girl's brother was an Intern.
The mother and daughter still didn't know what had happened and both shouted, "Master Qian, you are our Old Fang's good brother. We were bullied by an Intern at Bright Moon Company, you cannot just stand by and do nothing."
Case closed.
Qian Lei took a deep breath and shouted, "Why the hell should I care! If you don't want to survive, don't drag me into it. I don't know you, that's right! I don't know you! An Intern, you say? Why the hell didn't you just say a temporary employee!"
"He, he isn't..." Mother Fang was stunned and looked at her daughter in confusion.
Fang Xiaolei was also wearing a confused expression.
"Isn't he an Intern?" the mother and daughter asked.
