Zhao Ba did not dare to pursue the matter, and Li Se naturally would not say more, as the issue had nothing to do with him; it was between the Martial Alliance and the Tiger Gate.
Seeing that Zhao Ba did not dare to pursue it, Wang Hu breathed a sigh of relief. He had not expected even Elder Feng to be no match for Li Se. If the matter were truly pursued, he would likely not be able to leave today. However, he felt regret that he had failed to kill Zhao Ba today. He did not know when such an opportunity would arise again, and after this incident, Zhao Ba would only become more cautious.
Elder Feng glanced at Li Se and quickly left with Wang Hu. Staying longer would easily lead to trouble.
Leaving the antique club, Wang Hu said with some reluctance, "It's a pity this time. I don't know when the next opportunity will be!"
Elder Feng waved his hand. "That kid is a master. Even I am no match for him; his strength is unfathomable. We should not provoke the Martial Alliance for now and wait for reinforcements from the Feng family!"
"Understood!" Wang Hu nodded.
The top floor of the antique club.
Zhao Ba breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Se with immense gratitude. "Brother Li, if it weren't for you this time, I fear my head would have been separated from my body."
Li Se thought for a moment and said, "Brother Zhao, you should still be careful recently. They won't give up this easily."
"Alas, I know!" Zhao Ba nodded, his expression serious.
"Little brother, you're quite capable, aren't you?" a seductive voice rang out. The voice made Li Se tremble involuntarily. He couldn't help but look over. The speaker was naturally the woman with the innate seductive constitution from earlier. Both her voice and posture were full of temptation. Kuaishuge.com
Li Se almost dared not look at the woman. If he looked any longer, he felt his soul would be drawn away.
Due to Wang Hu's appearance, the antique trading on the top floor concluded for the day. Li Se, Chu Mingxuan, and Chen Bin were about to leave when they encountered the woman from earlier at the main entrance of the antique club. She was wearing a white wrap skirt that accentuated her voluptuous figure. Every movement and smile exuded a seductive charm, making many of the men around unable to avert their gaze.
"Little brother!" the woman greeted Li Se.
"Um, Li Se, we'll be leaving now then," Chen Bin coughed.
"Enviable! You get romantic encounters wherever you go!" Chu Mingxuan said enviously. He was extremely vain, otherwise, he wouldn't have run an entertainment company.
Chu Mingxuan and Chen Bin soon left. After they departed, the woman walked towards Li Se. She smiled and said, "Can I invite you for a drink?"
"Uh, alright," Li Se nodded, not refusing.
The so-called drink was indeed just a drink. The woman drove a Lamborghini sports car. Li Se sat in her car, and they went to a bar, settling into a booth. Although she was very beautiful, the bar was very noisy, so not many people noticed her.
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Su Mei," Su Mei said, taking a sip of her wine. A smile played on her lips, making her surroundings seem to pale in comparison.
"Li Se," Li Se also stated his name.
Su Mei put down her wine glass and looked at Li Se. "At the antique club, you saw me bid on that jade Buddha and shook your head. Can you tell me why?"
"Do you believe in metaphysics?" Li Se asked very seriously.
"Why do you ask?" Su Mei replied, puzzled.
"If you believe, then I can explain. If you don't, the explanation would be useless," Li Se said.
"You are so capable, of course, I choose to believe you," Su Mei giggled.
Li Se slowly said, "This jade Buddha likely came from the earth, having been with the dead for many years, along with the resentment of the tomb owner. If you keep it in your home, it will bring you bad luck. From the moment you bought the jade Buddha, its malevolent energy had already begun to attach itself to you, indicating that your luck was already being affected."
"So that's how it is," Su Mei said, suddenly enlightened. "In that case, I can't keep this jade Buddha."
"You could say that," Li Se nodded.
Su Mei looked at Li Se with a peculiar expression in her beautiful eyes. "Since you understand these things, do you have a way to resolve it? You also know that I spent quite a lot of money to buy this jade Buddha."
"I am just a doctor. Medical skills and esoteric arts are inseparable, which is why I know some things. I wouldn't claim to be an expert, but it can be resolved. You can place the jade Buddha in the sun for three days to resolve it," Li Se said.
"Okay, what about the malevolent energy on me then?" Su Mei suddenly leaned forward slightly, exposing her already scantily clad chest even further, her white skin almost making him spurt blood.
"Iā¦ I need to go to the restroom," Li Se felt a warmth in his nose and quickly ran to the restroom, cursing inwardly. This woman was a vixen, especially with her innate seductive constitution. If such a woman were to seduce a man, she would almost never fail!
"What an interesting little fellow," Su Mei said, a playful smile on her lips as she watched Li Se's flustered back.
After Li Se dealt with his nosebleed in the restroom, he was about to leave when a rather portly man bumped into him.
"Damn it, you're looking to die..." The fatty raised his hand to slap Li Se, but his arm was immediately caught by Li Se.
"You bumped into me!" Li Se frowned. The fatty in front of him reeked of alcohol, clearly drunk.
"So what if I bumped into you?" the fatty said angrily, reaching out with his other hand.
However, Li Se directly kicked the fatty away and, without paying him any further attention, turned and left the restroom. Upon returning to the booth, he found that someone had already come to strike up a conversation.
"I already have a boyfriend," Su Mei pointed at Li Se, saying with a look of helplessness.
Upon seeing Li Se with her, the man who had approached her just chuckled and wisely withdrew.
"Tell me, how should I resolve it?" Su Mei asked with a smile.
"Do you have a child?" Li Se asked.
"Do I look married?" Su Mei gave Li Se a glare. "I haven't been touched by a man yet. But why are you asking this? Could it be that you have designs on me?"
This woman was truly something... Li Se felt a prickling sensation on his scalp. Her words were all designed to seduce him. He quickly circulated his Qi cultivation technique, finally suppressing that stray thought, and then said, "Infants are born of primordial energy and are called embodiments of pure Yang. The ancients believed that immortals resided on an infant's head, thus hugging an infant could dispel one's malevolent energy and improve one's fortune."
"Then what if I don't have one?" Su Mei said with a look of regret.
"It's him!"
Just as Li Se was about to say something, the fatty from earlier returned with a group of people. He knew trouble was coming again.
