In the spacious conference room, silence fell, leaving everyone speechless. They never expected to hear such arrogant words from the young man in front of them. Even worse, they couldn't find a way to refute him and could only stare dumbfoundedly at Qin Yan.
Qin Yan calmly surveyed the room, waiting for someone to challenge him. After waiting for a while without anyone speaking up, Qin Yan's words seemed like a sharp blade piercing their hearts, dealing a fatal blow that left them completely powerless to resist.
"Why is everyone silent? Perhaps you should think things over before speaking," Qin Yan thought. Realizing there was nothing more to discuss, he stood up. After a moment of hesitation, Li Ruobing also rose from her seat and they both walked towards the door of the conference room.
"Where do you think you are? You can come and go as you please?" Wei Gang said coldly. As soon as he finished speaking, the doors of the conference hall swung open, and about a dozen heavily armed special forces personnel with submachine guns rushed in, aiming their guns directly at Qin Yan and Li Ruobing.
"What do you mean by this, Director Wei?" Qin Yan, bold and daring, faced the guns without a trace of panic on his face. Using his physical enhancement ability to strengthen his body, he shielded Li Ruobing and slowly moved towards the corner of the room, ready to respond to any attacks.
Wei Gang laid out his cards completely, "I'll tell you the truth: your Academy of Supernaturals cannot continue to exist as it has. Either it falls under the management of our Sky Shield Bureau, or it will be destroyed by other organizations. You choose!"
"Isn't there a third option?" Qin Yan asked.
"You have no choice. You need to understand that this world does not belong to your Academy of Supernaturals. Your actions must be restrained and regulated," Wei Gang replied.
"So, even if our academy has the power to save the world, that power must be under your control. Otherwise, it's better not to have it, is that what you mean?" Qin Yan's statement was tacitly accepted by Wei Gang.
Qin Yan glanced back at Li Ruobing and whispered, "Is there a way to deal with those people with guns?"
A glint appeared in Li Ruobing's eyes, and suddenly, the guns of the armed personnel made a sharp "bang" sound, all exploding. Startled, they quickly dropped their weapons on the ground.
"Why did their guns malfunction on their own?!" Qin Yan was slightly surprised. Li Ruobing whispered softly in his ear, "I used my magical ability to detonate the bullets and gunpowder in their weapons. As long as I control them with my magic, their weapons are ineffective against us."
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
Qin Yan nodded, grateful for having Li Ruobing, a skilled magic user, present. "Don't panic. Take them down for me," Wei Gang ordered loudly. The special forces personnel charged towards Qin Yan empty-handed. With a swift movement, Qin Yan leaped towards the nearest personnel, catching them off guard. Before they could react, he kicked them in the chest, sending them flying back into the wall, motionless.
"I advise you not to act recklessly, or you will be the ones at a loss!" Qin Yan's voice rang out loudly, causing discomfort in the ears of everyone in the conference room. However, the special forces personnel were rigorously trained and not easily intimidated by Qin Yan. After a brief moment of bewilderment, they continued their advance towards him.
Qin Yan sighed and began to fight with the special forces personnel, swiftly moving among them with exceptional agility. With just a punch or kick, he could send these people flying several meters away, inflicting significant damage upon them.
However, the punches and kicks from the personnel seemed to have no effect on Qin Yan. His enhanced body felt as hard as stone, rendering their attacks futile. Despite their strength, their attempts at grappling with Qin Yan were ineffective due to his immense power.
"Go after that woman," someone suddenly said when they realized they couldn't defeat Qin Yan, prompting two individuals to charge towards Li Ruobing.
"Back off," Li Ruobing said coldly, her back against the wall. Using her magical ability, she unleashed a powerful blast of air towards the approaching individuals, causing a thunderous explosion-like sound. The forceful blast sent the two flying five to six meters away, tumbling and rolling until they hit the wall and stopped.
"Oh my god!"
"Are these superhumans capable of magic? How powerful are they?!"
Witnessing this scene, the others in the conference room were terrified, fearing they might be affected. They cowered in the corner, trembling in fear, losing their initial air of arrogance and superiority.
The outcome of the battle was never in doubt. Despite their physical prowess and combat skills, the special forces personnel, who could easily handle multiple opponents, were powerless against Qin Yan and Li Ruobing. In less than three minutes, all the special forces personnel were defeated and incapacitated. They groaned in pain, unable to get up, as Qin Yan and Li Ruobing had held back, only inflicting minor injuries. With their abilities, they could have easily caused serious harm.
"What... what do you want?!" Wei Gang's face turned pale as he stood frozen in a corner of the conference room, no longer maintaining his initial composure.
"Please rest assured, we are only defending ourselves and won't harm you," Li Ruobing said calmly. Upon hearing this, the people in the room calmed down. Some felt embarrassed to be crouching on the ground and stood up, looking at Qin Yan and Li Ruobing with lingering fear.
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Wei Gang warned, "You... you better not act recklessly. This building is surrounded by hundreds of armed individuals. Without my order, you won't be able to leave."
Qin Yan looked at Wei Gang accusingly and said, "Is this your plan? Invite us for negotiations on the surface, but actually set up an ambush to capture us."
Gritting his teeth, Wei Gang replied, "We don't want it to be like this. As long as you agree to our conditions, I will naturally let you go."
"You've gone too far..." Qin Yan was a bit angry. If Wei Gang wasn't the father of his good friend Wei Zheng, he would have definitely taught him a lesson. At this moment, both sides were at a standstill, unwilling to back down. Just then, a calm voice of an elderly person was heard in the conference room, "Xiao Wei, you've handled this matter improperly today."
