First-Year Internship—And You Went to Site 749 to Contain Monsters?!
Chapter 130: I’ll Bring Them Over—Let Kou Huaiyi Come Get Him Himself

...

The few Cultivators of Qi watched their master get slapped.

The old man in the Divine Palace Realm shouted, “How dare you—”

BOOM!!!!

Lu Ding lifted his leg and delivered a straight kick. The old man flew back, crashing into a metal tree and getting buried in the flowerbed. His condition? Unknown.

“I dare a lot more than you think.”

As for the remaining Linghai Realm Cultivators of Qi—oh, their reaction was fast.

In a flash, they crouched down, heads covered, obedient as could be. Textbook surrender.

Lu Ding walked past them toward the exit.

News of Lu Ding and Bai Hemen storming the Kou Corporation reached the Kou Family.

At the poolside.

A man floated in the water, shirtless, in just swim trunks and sunglasses, basking in the sun.

Beside the pool.

A woman’s anxious voice cut through the air: “Who did Li Kai bring?!”

“You don’t recognize them?!”

“What the hell are you guys doing—how could that many people fail to protect Jingshen?!”

Fuming, the woman hurled her phone to the ground—shattering it.

The one yelling on the phone was Kou Jingshen’s eldest sister, Kou Jinglan.

And the man in the pool? Her husband—Quán Qing, of Swallow Gate.

Quan Qing pushed his sunglasses up. “Honey, why so angry? What happened to Jingshen?”

If he hadn’t spoken, it would’ve been fine. But the moment he did, Kou Jinglan exploded again.

“What happened!? Li Kai brought people to raid my brother’s company. Not only were the security guards beaten—my brother got taken too!”

Hands on her hips, she caught her breath, then pointed at Quan Qing: “Call Li Kai—right now! Tell him to let my brother go!”

“I can’t even bring myself to hit my brother—who the h*ll does he think he is?! This isn’t over!”

Quan Qing’s body drifted to the poolside. He grabbed his phone. “Okay, okay, I’m calling. Chill, babe, I got it.”

He said it nicely...

But in his mind, doubts were stirring.

By all logic, Li Kai wasn’t the kind of guy to act like this.

Even if Jingshen had crossed a line, Li Kai wouldn’t bring people over, beat him up, and haul him away...

Unless—unless 749 Bureau was planning to make a move on the Kou Family, and this was Li Kai switching sides?

The more he thought about it, the more wrong it felt. But Quan Qing kept his thoughts to himself.

After all, he was just a live-in son-in-law. Back in the day, his roguish charm caught Kou Jinglan’s eye, and that’s how he got into the Kou Family.

But let’s be honest—“married in” was putting it nicely. “Forced into it” was more accurate.

And if the higher-ups were about to act against the Kou Family, then as a son-in-law...

Yeah. He needed an exit plan.

Quan Qing didn’t believe for a second that the Kou Family could hold their own if 749 Bureau got serious.

He came from Swallow Gate. Back in the day, Swallow Gate was legendary—master thieves everywhere. But now? The Kou Family was nothing compared to that.

And what happened? Still got crushed by 749, left with just a few stragglers.

Pretending to make a phone call, Quan Qing was already texting someone in his company—asking for the surveillance footage.

Meanwhile, in the car...

Li Kai was driving.

He glanced over at Lu Ding in the passenger seat, and Bai Hemen in the back, carrying two people like they were shopping bags.

“That was Kou Jinglan’s husband—Quan Qing—calling just now.”

“Tell them,” Lu Ding said with a smile, “we’re heading over right now. And make sure she knows—this one? Kou Huaiyi has to come out and claim him in person.”

Bai Hemen’s eyes lit up in the back seat—he instantly got it.

“You want me to clear the way?”

Lu Ding: “I’ll charge the main attack.”

Their grinning faces sent a chill down Li Kai’s spine.

Especially that word—“charge.”

He knew Lu Ding’s signature move all too well.

Call connected.

Li Kai talked to Quan Qing on the phone while nervously eyeing Lu Ding from the corner of his eye.

A dangerous aura was radiating from Lu Ding’s hand as he slowly powered up.

At that moment, Li Kai’s heart was pounding.

Please go easy, man. That slash attack may look small, but one misstep—and it had more destructive power than a cruise missile.

If anything went wrong...

Li Kai figured that of the five people in the car, at least three would be toast.

He’d heard the stories before. But now, sitting right next to it, he was terrified. That fluctuating energy...

No one could sit here and not get cold feet.

Call ended.

Quan Qing passed along the message from Li Kai.

Hearing they were bringing people to the house—

Kou Jinglan’s fury finally cooled a bit.

She sat down—feet off the ground, brain back online.

She started mumbling analysis: “They want Dad to come get him personally... did Jingshen do something huge?”

Her brows furrowed. “No way!”

“Honey, get dressed—we’re going to see Dad together. We can’t afford any screw-ups right now.”

“If 749 gets leverage on us, we’ll have no room to negotiate.”

Quan Qing agreed quickly.

“Got it, I’ll go change.”

He rushed into the house while scrolling through the footage sent by his company.

Then—he saw a familiar figure.

Eyes wide, he paused the video.

In disbelief, he switched to another app, opened the Swallow Gate group chat, and scrolled through the history.

【Listen up, everyone. Keep a low profile for the next while. That good-for-nothing uncle of yours who ran off to join the Tianli Cult? He’s already dead—killed by a 749 Investigator.】

【So to avoid any mess, let me be clear: I’m not leaving the house for six months. I’m holding Swallow Gate’s roster in my hands.】

【If anyone stirs up trouble, I’ll cross their name out myself and expel them.】

Attached was a photo.

The brutally mangled corpse of the Thousand Gold Elder.

When Quan Qing had seen it before, he even did some digging. Found out the person who killed that “uncle” was a rookie investigator named Lu Ding.

And back then, he had laughed it off as a joke.

“Uncle... oh Uncle, you lived all those years only to get killed by a rookie Investigator. You really were useless.”

That was the first time.

Not long after, the Sect Master posted in the group chat again:

【Now the Branch Master of the Tianli Cult has also been taken out by Lu Ding. You all better behave. If you’ve stirred up any trouble outside, speak up now. If you can hide, hide.】

【If you can’t, don’t come running home. I won’t be able to protect you.】

【That Liu Xingchuan from the Tianli Cult—his cultivation was even higher than mine.】

It was only then that Quan Qing realized just how terrifying this rookie who killed his “Uncle” really was.

After that, he started keeping an eye on Lu Ding. And the more he watched, the more scared he got.

He secretly swore—this is the kind of guy you stay far away from.

And now you’re telling him—Lu Ding’s here! He’s coming!!!

“No way. I gotta get out of here. If Lu Ding’s coming, you can bet 749’s serious. The Kou Family is totally screwed. And if Lu Ding starts charging up his slash—what if I get caught in it?!”

He moved faster—but then stopped short.

Wait—no!

“If I run now, and heaven forbid—the Kou Family somehow smooths things over with 749, then I’ll look like a deserter. And if that happens, they won’t let me off easy either.”
