#320 - Chapter 319: Li Chenqiu is manipulated
Gradually, Li Chenqiu's perception of the outside world became increasingly blurred. Various bizarre and outlandish scenes flashed through his mind like a movie playing at double speed, making his head feel heavier and heavier.
"I'm so tired. I'll take a nap first, and we can talk about anything else tomorrow."
Li Chenqiu's head slowly tilted to the right, and his hands, resting on his stomach, slid off the smooth blanket, just as he was about to fall asleep.
A question, like a sudden bolt of lightning, broke through his drowsiness and appeared in his mind.
"Don't you think you're falling asleep too quickly?"
In an instant, Li Chenqiu's sinking consciousness broke free from the pull of drowsiness, desperately swimming towards the surface, but the drowsiness, like piranhas smelling blood, tore at his slightly awake consciousness.
"Something's wrong!"
Realizing something was amiss, Li Chenqiu hurriedly activated Absolute Control. In just a few seconds, he dispelled the drowsiness in his mind and the tingling sensation spreading throughout his body, regaining control of his body.
But after doing all this, Li Chenqiu didn't open his eyes. He maintained his previous posture, his expression unchanged, and even a bit of drool trickled from the corner of his mouth, feigning sleep more convincingly than real sleep.
Li Chenqiu knew very well that someone must have used some tricks on him in the dark. The reason he didn't wake up immediately was to see what the other party was up to.
The moonlight was bright and clear, like frost on the ground.
When the minute hand in the room pointed to "2", hundreds of silver-white spider silks crawled out of the shadows like swimming snakes, almost imperceptible to the naked eye under the cover of the moonlight.
Soon, these spider silks crawled onto Li Chenqiu's body, and he himself clearly felt their presence.
The spider silk was icy cold, and the strange touch felt like ants crawling on his body. It was only because Li Chenqiu had a high tolerance that he didn't reach out and start brushing them off. An ordinary person would have already done so.
Under the control of the spider silk's master, Kawahira Yasuhiro, in less than three minutes, all of Li Chenqiu's joints were wrapped in circles of spider silk, and even his eyelashes were entangled one by one.
Buzz——
The next moment, all the spider silks tightened instantly at the same time. Before Li Chenqiu could react, his tightly closed eyes were forcibly pried open, and his body uncontrollably sat up from the bed.
"Is this their plan?"
Li Chenqiu thought to himself, without making any resisting movements.
He had originally planned to break free by force, but now that someone was helping him, he might as well go along with it and see what the other party was up to, maybe there would be some unexpected gains.
With this in mind, Li Chenqiu acted like a puppet, letting the other party control him.
In the time that followed, the spider silk controlled Li Chenqiu to walk around the room, and then he leaned against the door to listen.
Finally, after wandering back and forth in the room for more than ten minutes, the spider silk controlled Li Chenqiu to come to the window and reach out to push it open.
Seeing this scene, a thought flashed through Li Chenqiu's mind.
"They're not just planning to have me jump down simply and crudely, are they!"
At the moment this thought arose, suddenly, the spider silk yanked violently, and Li Chenqiu's upper body was pulled out of the window. The night wind on the twenty-first floor slapped mercilessly on his face.
Due to the loss of balance, Li Chenqiu was frozen in the air for less than a second before plummeting headfirst towards the ground. The "whooshing" wind filled his ears, drowning out all other sounds.
Li Chenqiu endured the stinging sensation in his eyes, watching the ground growing larger and larger.
"Is this guy planning to disfigure me?"
Large question marks popped up above Li Chenqiu's head.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh——
One hundred meters… seventy meters… forty meters… twenty meters…
When he was less than ten meters from the ground, some of the spider silk instantly tightened, swaying left and right like a harp string.
The controlled Li Chenqiu straightened his left arm, pressed against the hotel's glass wall, and used the force to do a backflip, landing steadily on the spot with a "thump".
At the same time, a black business car parked by the roadside turned on its headlights.
The controlled Li Chenqiu did not hesitate, stepped to the front of the business car, pulled open the door, bent down and sat inside.
Bang!
As the car door closed, the spider silk on Li Chenqiu's body quickly retracted, and he slumped in the chair like a boneless person, his head lolling to the side.
"Kawahira, well done." Takahashi Rinne, sitting next to Li Chenqiu, praised generously.
Kawahira Yasuhiro in the passenger seat turned his head and smiled: "Thank you for the compliment, sir!"
Takahashi Rinne nodded and turned to the driver: "Drive to the place I told you."
"Understood."
Boom~~~
The car body began to shake, and accompanied by the roar of the engine, it drove onto the sparsely trafficked road.
Inside the business car, an investigator sitting in the back row poked his head out and asked curiously: "Sir, why are we taking action against Li Chenqiu in the middle of the night?"
When the others heard this, they all turned their attention to Takahashi Rinne.
Takahashi Rinne, who was closing her eyes to rest, opened her eyes, propped up her head and explained: "Takahashi Unosuke is here."
As soon as these words came out, everyone except the driver straightened up, and pairs of eyes showed undisguised surprise and shock.
Takahashi Unosuke, the most outstanding direct descendant of the Takahashi Fourth Family's third generation, broke through to the Seventh Restriction at the young age of twenty-four, and was a top-notch evildoer highly anticipated by the Takahashi Fourth Family!
Although he couldn't compare to Li Chenqiu, who was twenty years old by the lunar calendar, he was definitely at the top of the pyramid among his peers.
People like Gao Fushuai, although he looked young, it was all due to the effects brought about by breaking through the restriction. He was thirty-two years old when he broke through the Seventh Restriction.
In the Heavenly Yuan Federation, there is an unwritten saying that if a person does not break through to the Seventh Restriction before the age of thirty, then his limit is the Ninth Restriction, and it is difficult to reach the Tenth Restriction in his lifetime.
No matter how many revived beasts are supplied, it is useless, because the body functions begin to degenerate, and it is impossible to reach the limit of the Ninth Restriction.
Conversely, people who reach the Seventh Restriction before the age of thirty have the possibility of breaking through to the Tenth Restriction. The younger they are, the greater the possibility, but only one or two out of a thousand Destiny Awakened Ones are like this.
And those who can break through to the Seventh Restriction before the age of twenty-five are even one in ten thousand. Once they appear, if there are no accidents, they can steadily step into the Tenth Restriction and become the top powerhouse of the Heavenly Yuan Federation!
And Takahashi Unosuke is such a person.
Faced with a future existence destined to become a Tenth Restriction, or even higher, who can remain calm?
"Takahashi Unosuke! Is it Young Master Unosuke of the Fourth Family?"
Someone asked uncertainly.
Takahashi Rinne nodded in response: "That's right."
Kawahira Yasuhiro asked expectantly: "Then… then, sir, are we going to see Young Master Unosuke now?"
Takahashi Rinne said lightly: "Otherwise, why would I call you in the middle of the night? It's because Young Master Unosuke is waiting for us."
