Chapter 607: Chapter 603: Another Sudden Attack

"Third Young Master, rest assured, I’ve reminded them," he said. "I told them that this kid is tough, they absolutely can’t go head-on with him. They won’t confront him directly this time, they are all carrying weapons! Anyway, this time, even if he’s the reincarnation of Huang Feihong, he’s bound to be trapped, and Third Young Master’s anger will surely be vented!"

The youth’s face revealed a hint of smugness as he spoke, and a fierce viciousness flashed in his eyes towards the end.

"Good, let’s go and see," he said. "Let’s see how our dark horse, our 10,000-meter champ, turns into a cripple!"

The long-haired youth listened to the other’s words, the tension that had just appeared on his face immediately relaxed, a look of utter satisfaction emerged, and he casually slung his arm over the youth’s shoulder, turning towards the direction of a school gate up ahead.

............

"Hmm?"

The route from Zhou University to Azure Waterfront was one Xiao Yi had walked countless times. It was the path in G City he knew best, whether it was a few shops along the way, trees planted in the green belts, or the position of a trash can, he knew it all perfectly well.

To say he could walk home with his eyes closed was not an exaggeration.

Familiarity made him very sensitive to changes along the route.

Just as he had left the school and turned onto a quieter road, he immediately sensed something was off. A trash can that was normally placed by the roadside was carelessly kicked aside, and the contents were spilled out. Fortunately, the trash can was not near any residences and had presumably been cleaned by sanitation workers in the morning, so it wasn’t full of rotten rubbish, merely some fresh litter from pedestrians such as cardboard and packaging.

Next to the trash can, several cool-looking motorcycles appeared, but there were no people to be seen.

With a slight frown, Xiao Yi paused slightly, his Spiritual Sense unfolded in an instant, and he quickly understood the situation. His gaze casually swept over the nearby green belt, and a cold smile formed on his lips.

Ambush, clubbing from behind?

Who would have thought that these hooligans, these thugs, had become so low-key, so clever? Weren’t they usually so arrogant, blocking his path and telling him, ’Kid, you’re dead meat’?

But who exactly had hired these gangs?

Was it that Zhang guy from before?

If it really was him, then his efficiency was quite impressive.

A scornful look appeared in Xiao Yi’s eyes.

No matter who it was or who instructed them, since they wanted to club him from behind, today, they would simply be out of luck.

A sharp light flashed through his eyes, Xiao Yi resumed walking, not towards Azure Waterfront but towards the fallen trash can. He slowly crouched down beside it, righted it, and methodically began picking up the discarded trash and placing it back into the can.

"Boss, do you see if it’s that one?"

In the woodland of the green belt, a group of garishly dressed youths lay low, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation, mixed with a trace of ferocity and viciousness. Each of them held a steel rod about a meter long, thin but undoubtedly solid—a blow from it could definitely break a person’s bones.

A ruffian-looking man, his face exuding fierceness, stared at the figure picking up the trash ahead and said with a menacing edge, "If it’s him, can we make our move now?"

"Boss, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you speaking?"

As his words fell, after waiting for a while, he realized it was utterly silent by his side; no one had responded. He instinctively turned his gaze towards the tall man next to him.

However, as he turned, his face involuntarily froze.

There, his own boss, a tall and sturdy man, had his facial muscles completely twisted up, his eyes bloodshot as he stared straight ahead, his entire expression exceedingly ferocious and terrifying, causing even this ruthless type to shiver uncontrollably. After a moment, he carefully looked at his boss and cautiously asked, "Boss, what’s... what’s wrong with you?"

"Attack!"

Upon his companion’s reminder, the boss finally snapped back to reality. His fists clenched tightly, he gritted his teeth and spat out word by word, "Take this kid down!"

This boss was none other than the drunk who Xiao Yi and Fatty Tang had offended while dining together that day!

Today, his original plan was to collect money, avert disasters for others, and teach a lesson on someone’s behalf, but he had never expected that his target would be this person! Previously, they had only shown him a photo of a figure from behind, featuring just the silhouette and a tracksuit, so he hadn’t seen the front at all!

Now, having seen the front, he felt as if his whole being was about to ignite; the boy in front of him, even if burned to ashes, he would remember, because the lesson he gave him was too profound!

That day, it was this very boy, who had messed up his plans while dining at the restaurant, causing him to lose his standing with the boss he had followed, and moreover, afterward... afterward, he had given him a lesson that made life worse than death!

The day he was easily spared by Xiao Yi, he thought he had really gotten lucky. This person was joking with him, or rather, it was nothing more than a superficial talk.

It was only after the exuberant relief of leaving that the torment that made life worse than death kicked in, did he realize he was wrong; initially, he hadn’t connected the pain to this boy, until later, when he recalled the words Xiao Yi had said, he suddenly saw the light!

After barely surviving, his hatred towards Xiao Yi had engrained so deeply in his heart, and likewise, his hatred towards Blondie, who he had previously followed, reached the same profound depths.

At that moment, inwardly, he vowed to revenge himself no matter what.

Resolved, he joined another gang and, with all his cunning, rapidly rose in ranks. Once he did, the first thing he did was seek revenge. However, there were different levels to revenge, and he knew he couldn’t yet touch Blondie’s gang, but there were two others he could avenge himself against—those two were Xiao Yi and Fatty Tang!

Thus, he mobilized all his underlings to track down these two men, regrettably without any luck.

But he had never expected that on such an occasion today, he would actually encounter them!

Today, Grandad will make you wish you were dead! You will taste that sensation!

The drunkard’s eyes bore a ferocious expression, screaming madly within his heart.

And in the heart of the intoxicated man, amidst this scream, accompanied by his voice, a group of men suddenly burst from the greenery behind him, brandishing iron rods and surging forward, fiercely attacking Xiao Yi.

The group of men clearly weren’t rookies; each swung their rods brutally, without hesitation, and silently, their faces wearing an excited, savage expression as they swung vigorously.

"Really courting death!"

Watching this group of thugs finally leap into action, seeing those deadly iron rods smashing down, Xiao Yi’s lips curled into a cold smirk as he slowly rose to his feet, his gaze chilling as he looked at them.

Initially aggressive, the gangsters paused upon seeing Xiao Yi’s extraordinary demeanor, puzzled. According to their extensive experience, shouldn’t this boy be pale with fear by now? Maybe even soiling himself and fleeing?

Why does he look completely unafraid?

But it was only a moment before they dismissed Xiao Yi’s unusual demeanor, their lips curling with a vicious sneer as they continued chopping ferociously at him, even more fiercely than before!

They all recalled that previously, they had heard that this boy had practiced kung fu, which explained his composure.

Kid, do you really fucking think that knowing a bit of kung fu makes you unbeatable?

Even if you’ve practiced a little, no matter how skilled your kung fu is, you still fear a cleaver!

Today, even if you were a dragon, I’d still make you coil under my club!

Men wielding iron rods coldly sneered internally, their faces bearing a cruel expression as they brutally targeted Xiao Yi, convinced that he couldn’t withstand so many iron rods.

The so-called kung fu, which they weren’t unfamiliar with, simply meant a bit sturdier fists, more agile moves, and better strength. Normally in a fight, you might handle two or three, but against weapons, it was useless!

An iron club coming down breaks all muscles and bones!

Especially when they saw Xiao Yi’s appearance, observing his delicate and slightly pale face, they became even more convinced—maybe even today’s display was overestimating this kid!

In the moment of striking, in their eyes, they could almost see Xiao Yi falling to the ground, rolling in agony.
