Chapter 509: Street Racers? Robbers?

“Sir!” The driver looked panicked. He didn’t want to disturb Qin Chuan’s rest, but the warning system had given him an alarm, so this was the only way.

Qin Chuan opened his eyes.

Actually, he had not really fallen asleep. Instead, he was meditating and still had some sense of the outside world.

“What’s wrong?” asked Qin Chuan.

“We might have encountered street racers.”

“Street racers?” Qin Chuan was stunned.

The driver projected the images captured by the warning system.

Behind them were three high-speed hover cars.

“According to the warning system, there might be a risk of rear-ending if we don’t change lanes as soon as possible.

“Because we’re driving at high speed, the car will be a little unstable if we suddenly change lanes, so I had no choice but to wake you up and let you know in advance,” explained the driver.

“Go ahead!” said Qin Chuan casually.

“Yes!” The driver checked the road behind him. After confirming that there were no cars, he controlled the steering panel. Due to inertia, the objects in the car immediately tilted violently to the left.

Then, it gradually stabilized, and the alarm system stopped ringing.

The driver cursed, “These d*mned racers will suffer retribution sooner or later.”

On such highways on the Great Tang Star that did not restrict speed, there were often these reckless racers.

Speeding on the highway was nothing more than seeking excitement or testing the performance of their cars for them.

When the driver checked the notification from the warning system, he instantly thought that it was a racing gang.

He had been in the taxi business for so many years and had seen too many of them.

Although there were traffic laws, these racers had powerful backgrounds, and law enforcement personnel did not dare to do anything to them.

However, just as the driver thought that everything was fine, the alarm system sounded again.

The images still showed the three cars from before.

The driver was puzzled.

He had already made way for them. Why are they following us again?

Wait… Are they robbers instead of racers?

If they are robbers, they are too bold. I have an immortal cultivator in my car.

Because Qin Chuan was in the car, the driver wasn’t particularly afraid.

“Immortal, we seem to have encountered robbers,” the driver reported truthfully.

“Robbers?” asked Qin Chuan. “Didn’t you say that they were racers?”

The driver said, “Immortal, I thought they were just ordinary racers, and I even changed lanes to make way for them. But now, they are following behind us again.

“Based on the two decades of experience, there’s a high chance that they’re robbers.”

Qin Chuan said, “Isn’t the management of the Great Tang Star really strict? Why are there still robbers?”

The driver said, “This is only a small probability event. I’ve never encountered one since I started driving. I’m a little unlucky today.”

“Then what should we do?” asked Qin Chuan.

The driver replied, “Don’t worry, Immortal. I’ve already reported the situation to the enforcement team. They’re already on their way.”

“Alright!” Qin Chuan nodded, not very worried.

However, he was still a little suspicious. It’s only been a short time since I’ve arrived here, but I’m already so unlucky?

The driver had also said that robbery was unlikely.

He had never encountered one in his 20 years of driving, but he managed to bump into one today…

Qin Chuan suspected that someone had done this on purpose.

Therefore, he released his divine consciousness to see what was going on.

Soon, his divine consciousness captured these “robbers” behind him.

There were a total of ten people.

They all wore masks on their faces.

These masks were not ordinary masks. It could isolate divine consciousness, so one could not see the faces of these robbers. At the same time, one would not know their realms.

“Immortal, because of the special situation, it will be difficult to escape them if we continue to drive on this road.

“By the time the enforcement team arrives, we will probably already be in trouble.

“Therefore, I want to change routes and try to get rid of them,” the driver suddenly said.

He had more than 20 years of driving experience and was confident in his skills.

Qin Chuan retracted his divine consciousness and checked the map. There were still about 20 minutes to go to reach his destination.

If they continued driving, they would probably end up like what the driver said.

However, he didn’t think the driver could get rid of these “robbers.”

Although he did not understand these high-tech cars, from their appearance, it was obvious that the robbers were more sci-fi than the drivers.

“Sir, there’s a forest ten kilometers west. You can sop there!” said Qin Chuan.

The driver was shocked, but he quickly understood what Qin Chuan was going to do.

“Alright. Immortal, sit tight.” The driver didn’t waste any time and immediately controlled the car to drive west.

As expected, the three cars behind immediately followed.

Seeing that they were following him, the driver was 100% sure that they were robbers.

A minute or two later, they arrived at the forest Qin Chuan had pointed out.

“Thank you, Sir,” said Qin Chuan.

The driver wiped his sweat. “It’s what I ought to do.”

“This should be enough!” Qin Chuan took out a supreme-grade spirit stone.

The driver had been driving for so many years. Although he was an ordinary person, he could still recognize the quality of the spirit stone in Qin Chuan’s hand.

He’s so generous. No wonder he was targeted by the robbers, the driver thought to himself.

“Immortal, there’s no need for so much. Most importantly, I haven’t sent you to your destination yet!

“So, I can’t accept this money now.” The driver refused.

He had his principles. He would not accept money unless he sent his passengers to their destination.

Because of this principle, he was rated as an excellent driver every year and received a large reward.

Seeing the determination in the driver’s eyes, Qin Chuan didn’t try to persuade him. He threw down the supreme-grade spirit stone, opened the door, and flew out.

“Immortal…” The driver was stunned for a moment, but he quickly ran out.

Qin Chuan stood in the air and said calmly, “Go back!

“A battle might happen next. This is not something an ordinary person like you can withstand.”

“But…” The driver wanted to say something, but Qin Chuan waved his hand, and a gust of wind blew the vehicle far away.

The next second, the “robbers” arrived.

They got out and quickly surrounded Qin Chuan.

“What do you want?” asked Qin Chuan deliberately.

“What else? To rob you, of course,” said a tall robber.

“I don’t have anything of value on me. You guys have approached the wrong person,” said Qin Chuan.

“Cut the crap. If you don’t want to die, hand over all your treasures,” said the robber sternly.

“Alright, alright, I’ll hand them over!” Qin Chuan took out a storage bag and threw it over.

The robber caught the storage bag and opened it. It was filled with gold and silver items.

To immortal cultivators like them, gold and silver were like dung.

“Are you kidding us?!” The robber was furious.

He took out a large saber. His killing intent was especially terrifying.

Qin Chuan spread his hands and said innocently.

“Big brothers, I’ve already said that I don’t have anything valuable on me. Those were all my belongings.”

The robber was unmoved. “Seems like you want to do this the hard way. I guess you really don’t want to live anymore.”

With that, he swung his saber at Qin Chuan.

The current Qin Chuan was no longer the same as before. From the way this robber raised his saber, one could tell that he was a newbie without any skills to speak of.

A cold light flashed, and the robber successfully missed.

Just as he was about to fly into a rage, a golden arc tore through the air from an unknown direction.

The next moment, the robber screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
