Chapter 482: Chapter 0482: Clearing Jack’s Name
"The matter of being a bodyguard is not yet certain, but since you dare to intimidate someone who might become the person I’m protecting in front of me, that’s disrespecting me, Wu Yong."
After Wu Yong stood up, he said with a threatening face, "Anyone with sense better scram right now, or else when I take action, you two will have to crawl out."
"What an arrogant fellow, do you even know who you’re talking to?" Jin Gang sneered upon hearing this.
"Just a big gorilla."
Wu Yong said disdainfully, curling his lip and throwing a punch at the wall behind him.
"Boom!"
After a loud noise, the wall had been punched through by Wu Yong.
"See that? This is my strength. If you don’t want to be punched through, you’d better get lost."
Wu Yong warned with a proud face.
"Who is this guy? Even an eight or nine-star martial artist could break a wall, yet he’s using this method to threaten a four-star martial master. Is he out of his mind?"
Qin Aotian looked at Wu Yong with a strange expression on his face.
"It looks like you really want to meddle in this, don’t you!"
Jin Gang also looked down on Wu Yong’s methods, feeling that the other party was just a bumpkin who hadn’t seen much of the world.
"What if I do meddle?" Wu Yong took a step forward, unleashing his aura and said with a cold laugh:
"I am a three-star peak martial master. The Songlan City martial arts families are nothing but a bunch of one-star martial masters. In front of us, you are as vulnerable as chickens and dogs."
"A three-star martial master?"
Qin Aotian was shocked, not expecting that Liu Gaoze had actually hired a three-star martial master as a bodyguard, which seemed to have already surpassed the martial arts families.
Luckily, he had timely backed off after learning that Liu Gaoze was a member of the Dark Group, without acting rashly. Otherwise, the Qin Family might have been annihilated by the three-star martial master.
"Idiot!" Upon hearing this, Jin Gang scornfully curled his lip and slowly raised his fist, saying coldly:
"If you can take one punch from me, you win."
"Arrogant. It seems I’ll have to take you down first!"
Seeing the other party not giving face, Wu Yong roared and abruptly lifted up. Midair, he summoned white Gang Qi, clenching his fist and viciously smashing it towards Jin Gang’s head.
Jin Gang stood in place, quickly raised his hand, and threw a punch wrapped in a layer of Gang Qi towards Wu Yong.
"Turns out you’re also a martial master, but it’s a pity your Gang Qi can’t even wrap around your body, which is simply too weak!"
Wu Yong let out a strange laugh and fiercely increased his power, ready to end the fight with one punch.
"Bang!"
After their fists collided, Wu Yong’s body flew out like a kite with a broken string, smashing through the wall he just broke through and got buried under the bricks.
"Hiss!"
Qin Aotian took in a breath of cold air. Although he already knew that Jin Gang was a four-star martial master, seeing him injure a three-star martial master with one punch still left him deeply shocked.
With such strength, he was already more than capable of sweeping through Songlan City.
"Ptooey!"
Jin Gang spat out a mouthful of saliva, shook his fist, and said disdainfully, "Indeed, as useless as his name suggests, what a waste!"
"You, you’re actually a four-star martial master."
Wu Yong, covered in dust, crawled out from the bricks, looking at Wu Yong with astonishment. At this moment, his right arm was already broken, hanging powerless by his side.
Being able to injure a three-star peak martial master with a single punch without using all of his Gang Qi indicated that his strength was at least that of a four-star.
"Hmph!"
Without paying any attention to Wu Yong, Jin Gang snorted coldly and turned directly to Liu Gaoze:
"Do you have anything to say now?"
Liu Gaoze was stunned at this point, not expecting the previously arrogant Wu Yong to be severely injured by a single punch. This suggested Jin Gang was perhaps a martial master of four-stars or above.
Facing such a superpower, if Liu Gaoze didn’t cooperate, the other party could really take out him and Liu Mengting quietly.
"Cough cough, let’s talk, everything is up for negotiation," Liu Gaoze said, swallowing his saliva with difficulty, managing a strained smile.
"There’s nothing to negotiate! If the police don’t release my young master by this evening, then you, your daughter, and everyone from the Liu Group will not see tomorrow’s sun," Jin Gang uttered a threat and turned to leave, confident Liu Gaoze would provide a satisfactory response.
Qin Aotian looked at Liu Gaoze with a smug expression and hurriedly followed Jin Gang out. As long as he was in Jin Gang’s good graces, the Qin and Yang Families would rule over Songlan City.
After Jin Gang and the others left, Liu Gaoze was soaked in cold sweat. Being an ordinary person, not falling apart on the spot in the face of a four-star martial master’s aura was an achievement in itself.
"Cough cough!"
It was only now that Wu Yong emerged from the wall, coughing embarrassingly.
"Mr. Wu, are you all right?" Liu Gaoze looked at Wu Yong strangely, his voice uncertain:
"Perhaps I should ask the organization to assign someone else to this mission? Don’t worry, I won’t make you compensate for the wall."
"I..." Wu Yong’s face turned red, and through gritted teeth he said:
"I implore you not to spread today’s incident. I will ask the organization to dispatch a stronger operative for the mission here as soon as possible."
"Then thank you!"
Liu Gaoze nodded with a feigned smile.
After this incident, Wu Yong had no face left to stay. Having previously made such excessive demands and then being defeated in one move, he was in no position to make further requests.
Just thinking about Jin Gang’s terrifying strength made Wu Yong eager to leave Songlan City, to avoid another confrontation.
Wu Yong had originally thought that Songlan City lacked high-level warriors and that his protection mission here was merely a chance to earn some easy money and enjoy life. Yet, before he even officially started, he had been swiftly defeated; this was an enormous loss of face.
Head bowed and face dirty, Wu Yong left, just as a poem would say: I left quietly, taking with me only my pain!
After Wu Yong’s departure, Liu Gaoze hurriedly put on his coat and instructed his driver to take him to the police station.
Facing the threat and warning from Jin Gang, Liu Gaoze had no choice but to yield; hence he rushed to the police station immediately to drop the charges against Jack.
For the days that Tang Ming had been missing, Lin Xue hadn’t had a good night’s sleep. Aside from searching for clues in surveillance footage, she had been interrogating Jack, but sadly, to no avail.
If Lin Xue wasn’t resting well, Jack was even worse off, enduring the same questions dozens of times a day under her interrogation. Even a good person could be driven mad by such torment; only his injuries saved him from possibly being killed by Lin Xue’s relentless questioning.
When Lin Xue received news that Liu Gaoze was dropping the charges and proving Jack had no relation to the kidnappers, she was nearly furious.
Just as she felt Jack was on the verge of breaking under the days of interrogation, Liu Gaoze suddenly claimed he had nothing to do with the case! This was clearly exonerating Jack!
