Chapter 24 The Ruthless Killer
Chapter 24 The Ruthless Killer
"What? Give me ten seconds?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shih-hao was taken aback at first, then sneered, his face full of disdain.
How dare that good-for-nothing from the Xiao family speak to him like that?
Xia Liuli looked surprised.
She only wanted to use Xiao Chen as a cover to escape Zhang Shihao's interference, but she didn't expect Xiao Chen to be so straightforward and tell her to get out.
"Are you tough enough to take a beating?" Xia Liuli asked, staring at him.
"I don't know if I can take a beating, but I can definitely hit someone hard," Xiao Chen replied with a smile.
Xia Liuli was stunned.
She didn't know where Xiao Chen got his confidence from.
The Zhang family is also a prominent family in the southern part of the city. Although their economic strength is somewhat inferior to that of the Xiao family, the Zhang family has a very strong background, and some members of the Zhang family wield considerable power.
Although Xiao Chen is the young master of the Xiao family, his status is even lower than that of a servant. The Zhang family has many ways to get rid of him, and the Xiao family will not interfere.
"Hehehe... Interesting..."
Zhang Shih-hao laughed even louder, his eyes filled with even more sarcasm.
Who would take seriously the useless people despised by the Xiao family?
“Xia Liuli, I know what you see in him. This kind of reckless arrogance and self-destructive behavior is actually quite amusing in a way,” Zhang Shihao sneered.
Xia Liuli remained silent with a cold expression.
She doesn't like people who make grand pronouncements without any real ability, and Xiao Chen's current behavior is a prime example of that.
"Ten seconds have passed," Xiao Chen said calmly.
"So what? What can you do to me?" Zhou Shih-hao remained unmoved, his contempt growing even stronger.
Xiao Chen didn't say a word, but raised one hand.
Zhou Shih-hao remained unfazed and even continued to mock him.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, Xiao Chen's movements were so fast that they were impossible to see.
Before he could react, Zhou Shih-hao was already in the air.
"boom!"
He smashed through the wooden screen door of the private room and shot out like a cannonball; it took a while before the sound was heard.
Xia Liuli's expression froze.
She initially thought Xiao Chen was just putting on a brave face, but she didn't expect him to be so decisive.
He actually threw Zhang Shih-hao away...
How did he do that?
“Zhang Shih-hao is a very difficult person to deal with,” Xia Liuli said. “Given his temper, if you embarrass him, he’ll probably make a huge scene.”
"That's not necessarily true. If you ask me, he won't come again." Xiao Chen smiled slightly.
"Let's make a bet. If he returns, you take me to see the Sage of Medicine. If he doesn't, I can grant you one request. Are you willing to bet?" Xia Liuli tempted.
Xiao Chen was slightly taken aback, then nodded.
Xia Liuli rarely smiled; she was certain of victory.
At this moment, in the courtyard of Zhiweiyuan.
Zhou Shih-hao was seriously injured in the fall; he was knocked unconscious and it took him a long time to regain consciousness.
He immediately felt intense pain, and couldn't help but gasp for breath several times, letting out a painful howl.
"Damn it! This piece of trash actually dared to throw me down, he's asking for death!" Zhou Shihao's veins bulged, he was furious.
In the southern part of the city, he was second only to Xiao Yichen in terms of being a playboy. How many people dared to mess with him?
This is the first time I've ever been so disheveled.
Zhou Shihao was furious at being embarrassed in front of Xia Liuli, and his hatred for Xiao Chen surged to the extreme.
"Someone come here!"
He roared angrily.
Soon, seven or eight people rushed in.
Which spoiled brat doesn't have a capable lackey around him?
"Young Master Zhou, what are your orders?" the leader asked obsequiously.
"Room 2, break that kid's hand! Then bring him down, I'm going to sever his tendons!" Zhou Shihao roared menacingly.
"How dare you provoke Young Master Zhou! You're truly ignorant of your own limitations! Don't worry, Young Master Zhou, we'll avenge you right away! We'll break not only his arms, but also his legs!"
After the leader finished flattering him, he immediately led the others to try and force their way in.
Suddenly, a black figure appeared at the entrance and blocked the way.
“Mr. Xiao prefers peace and quiet. Those who disturb him will not be forgiven!” the shadowy figure said coldly.
Zhang Shih-hao was so angry he laughed.
I never imagined that good-for-nothing would have helpers, and that they would dare to disregard him.
"What are you standing there for? Do it for me the same way!" he roared.
He refused to believe that he couldn't even handle one of Xiao Chen's henchmen.
Upon hearing this, his men charged forward aggressively, intending to outnumber the enemy.
Without wasting words, the shadowy figure launched an attack.
"Bang bang bang..."
Again, it was a movement that Zhang Shih-hao couldn't see clearly, but somehow, the others screamed and fell to the ground one after another, unable to get up.
Zhang Shih-hao was completely dumbfounded.
Even Xiao Yichen's top bodyguards aren't as powerful as this...
They're practically humanoid machines; they can take down a whole bunch of people in the blink of an eye.
"How is this possible..." Zhang Shih-hao's face was full of disbelief.
Wasn't Xiao Chen rejected by the Xiao family? How could a lowly scion have such ridiculously powerful bodyguards by his side?
"Didn't you hear what Mr. Xiao Chen said? He told you to get lost!" The Underworld Guard stared at Zhang Shihao coldly.
Zhang Shih-hao's face was grim. Although he was afraid, his strong sense of pride prevented him from backing down.
“I am the only heir of the Zhou family in Nancheng. If Xiao Chen dares to touch me, he will disappear from Nancheng completely tomorrow, and so will you!”
The underworld guards ignored them and stepped closer.
"Don't come any closer!" Zhang Shih-hao panicked a little when he saw him getting closer.
What kind of person is he? He resorts to violence at the slightest disagreement. Does he really not know how powerful the Zhou family is?
The underworld guard picked up Zhou Shihao like a chick, ignored his cries, and casually tossed him behind him.
"what……"
Zhou Shih-hao screamed as he was thrown out of the courtyard of Zhiweiyuan.
Zhou Shih-hao felt like his body was falling apart after falling to the ground, and struggled to get up.
He had barely straightened up when someone fell from the sky and landed heavily on him.
"Bang bang bang..."
His henchmen were all thrown out and piled on top of him like a human pyramid, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
"Get out of my way..." he shouted weakly.
"Young Master Zhou, are you alright?" The lackey finally managed to drag him up.
"I'm so angry! I'm going to kill them!" Zhou Shihao was furious.
"Young Master Zhou, that person is no ordinary person..." the number one lackey said obsequiously.
“He has definitely killed people, and more than one, because his murderous aura is too strong, even comparable to the underworld bosses of Nancheng. He is definitely a ruthless person!” His voice trembled slightly as he spoke.
"Impossible! What is Xiao Chen? Even if he has thugs, how powerful can they be? I won't swallow this insult!"
Zhang Shih-hao has always been vengeful.
"I never hold a grudge overnight!" he said bitterly, taking out his phone to call for help.
The number one lackey hesitated, not daring to speak.
He didn't dare to be too honest with Zhou Shih-hao.
Just a glance was enough to send chills down his spine and make him tremble.
He had experienced this feeling once before.
That was... a ruthless killer! Known as the God of Slaughter!
It's hard to understand how someone like that could obey a good-for-nothing son of the Xiao family...
