Chapter 44: A fightTranslated and Editted by: La0o9
Gu Qing Shan just said: “If you believe in their words so much, then call the authorities”
The manager smiled and said: “Then you can’t blame me for it”
He took out a phone and really called the police.
Only a few moments later, policemen have already arrived at the archery range.
The first thing they did was to greet the Hui Shao before coming to Gu Qing Shan.
“You were reported for thievery, please come with us” a policeman directly said.
Gu Qing Shan took a look at the police and asked: “Are you really the police? What evidence do you have?”
“We’re all witnesses here!”
“Catch him, quickly”
“Brat, it’s too late to regret it now, go and think about what you did in prison”
The crowd of youths were noisy.
Gu Qing Shan coldly glanced at them.
The whole crowd didn’t understand why, but they all immediately felt a shiver and couldn’t help but shut up.
This one isn’t simple, they all had the same thought.
A police even couldn’t help himself and drew his gun.
“Do you really want my bow that much?” Gu Qing Shan looked at Hui Shao.
Hui Shao smirked and said sarcastically: “You thief, this is my bow”
A police walked up and said: “According to procedure, you’re now a suspect, we need to check your personal records before you can hire a lawyer”
Gu Qing Shan glanced at him and took out his Holo-Brain.
The police that was talking to him felt like he was being stared at by some sort of an ancient predator, himself a prey.
He shakenly took out the scanner from his belt and scanned the Holo-Brain.
“Beep!”
“Checking personal record”
“Not enough authority, access denied”
The police Holo-Brain scanner repeated that message.
The nonchalant look on the other policemen all disappeared at the same time.
“Captain Zhang, it seems this brat have some status, you’ll have to do it” a policeman said.
“Alright, let me”
The police captain stepped forward, taking Gu Qing Shan’s personal Holo-Brain and scanned it.
“Beep!”
“Checking personal record”
“Not enough authority, access denied”

All the policemen looked at each other, their hearts sank.
Originally they thought it was a normal case of using status for bullying, but this looks more like a clash of giants instead.
This kind of problem, if they don’t handle it well they’ll pay very dearly.
Unconsciously, on their face showed a bit more respect.
A policeman who was standing near Gu Qing Shan reluctantly showed a stiff smile and said: “Please wait a minute sir”
And then they looked at the crowd like asking for help.
“You lot really can’t even handle a small matter, do I have to do everything?” a youth from the behind Hui Shao stepped out and said tiredly.
He’s the son of the capital’s police department’s commissioner, having already joined the police department from long ago, right now he’s the department’s vice-commissioner.
These policemen are all his men.
He took out a small scanner and scanned Gu Qing Shan’s Holo-Brain.
“Beep!”
As the scanner worked, the records slowly appeared on the screen.
“Hah, it’s like I always have to do everything myself” said the youth as he showed a face of pride.
Suddenly, a voice was heard from the scanner.
This electronic voice also contained a hint of warning.
“Too many requests in a short period of time, increasing security level”
“Not enough authority, access denied”
Everyone was immediately stunned, their eyes looking at Gu Qing Shan became very anxious.
Just who is this person that could even deny investigation?
“I remember, the President’s announcement from yesterday, he was there” a policeman spoke.
“That’s right, he was the President’s adoptive son”
“The President was going to help him enter University”
The thing people fear most is when they don’t know how deep your connections and influence go.
Now that everyone knew who Gu Qing Shan was, they could be a bit calmer.
So that’s it, it’s not that he’s an unknown VIP or something, just that he has the President backing him.
The current President is a kind and easy-going person, no matter if it’s diplomatic military decisions or inside policing decisions, he always use relatively soft methods, gaining a lot of approval from all citizens.

Even the youths from the 9 Lords families here feel this situation to be a bit hard to handle.
Hui Shao suddenly laughed, and shouted: “You lot, hold down this brat for me”
A few unnoticed people started to move, their eyes locked onto Gu Qing Shan.
“Hui Shao, this might not be ok” the other youth scowled a bit and silently advised against it.
“I know my boundaries” Hui Shao said, “The President’s adoptive son got into an argument in a gym club, both sides fought a bit, nothing too major”
“We only need to give him a good beating to let go of our anger, when the President’s term is over, I’ll get him back later”
As Hui Shao said that, the crowd around them returned to their nonchalant attitude.
A few young people getting into conflict and fight a bit isn’t anything too serious.
This kind of “not too serious” matter, even the President don’t have any way to manage.
“Beat him good for me” Hui Shao pointed at Gu Qing Shan “I want to step on his face, let him know just who is the real master in this world”
“Yes”
As the people stepped forward, their aura caught Gu Qing Shan’s attention.
“How interesting, since when did Supernaturalist were so cheap that they would become a noble’s servant?” Gu Qing Shan laughed.
As the men hear that, their faces all changed.
“You brat, how dare you”
As he said that, his hand glowed a black aura and quickly stepped forward.
“Dark-elemental? What a waste on someone like you”
Just as Gu Qing Shan said that, he had already raised his bow and fired.
His hands so quick it became afterimages, as consecutive string sounds were heard and arrows disappeared one after another.
Cries of pain could be heard one after another.
The crowd couldn’t even tell what happened before Hui Shao’s subordinate all got knocked back.
As they turned around, they all gasped.
The five Supernaturalist were pinned to the wall, their feet in the air.
The arrows had pierced their shoulders, passed through and stuck themselves in the walls behind.
Red blood dripped down the white painted walls.
One of the Supernaturalist still didn’t give up and tried to raise his left hand.
A flame rose from his palm.
Just as the Supernaturalist wanted to act, he heard a voice asking.
“You want to test to see if you’re quicker, or am I quicker?”
Gu Qing Shan lightly asked.
His bow is still raised, but the aura around him already changed.
Cold as ice killing intent emitted from his whole body, locked straight onto the Supernaturalist on the wall.
A normal person who couldn’t even breach the first stage of Dark-element is basically harmless so he doesn’t need to care, but Fire-element is different.
Of the 5-elements, Fire has one of the highest destructive capabilities, if the opponent really dares to use it, Gu Qing Shan will immediately take his life without any hesitation.
The other person is also a veteran, as soon as he felt the killing intent, he looked to find a pair of calm eyes staring at him, and knew that he had really hit a hard wall this time.
His Fire-element was awakened very late, so he’s only just got to the second stage of “Searing Flame”, although the power is great, he still couldn’t control it at will yet and needs time to focus his power.
The enemy’s arrows are too quick, so quick that no one could react, so quick that he couldn’t react.
Just then, if the enemy didn’t aim at the shoulder, but somewhere else…
He deeply sighed and reluctantly dropped his hands.
The whole scene was silent.
Step, step, step, Gu Qing Shan walked forward, to where Hui Shao is.
“You’re part of the 9 Lords?” he asked.
Hui Shao stuck out his chest and said: “I’m part of the Lord of the Capital, Huang family’s ——“
Bah!
A single slap, Hui Shao was knocked flying.
Gu Qing Shan kept walking forward, looking down on the other party.
“You dare to hit me, I’m the second son of Huang Family, you’ll pay for this with your life!” Hui Shao held his bleeding face, screaming and shouting.
“I have to pay for this? Ah! You insect that only knows how to eat until you die, you think you deserve to speak that way to me?”
Gu Qing Shan shook his head and coldly spoke.
Everyone there was stunned speechless.
