Chapter 564: Chapter 565 Testing the Enemy with a Move

A monster, truly a monster!

Asking him that question at such a time was like asking him to jump into a trap!

That indifferent gaze from Miao Qingqing tinged with killing aura unsettled Song Xiaodong as he coughed lightly and said, "What do you mean by ’pleasant’? Just now, I was only thinking about dealing with Sun Zi’ang. Do you think those two experts are pushovers?"

Miao Xuanxuan chuckled and said, "I was just teasing you. What kind of person do you think I don’t know you are? When my leg was injured last time, you took care of me all the time. If you had wanted to take advantage of me, you would have done it long ago, why would you wait until now?"

The killing aura in Miao Qingqing’s eyes immediately dissipated as she gave Miao Xuanxuan a look and said, "You’re always up to mischief. Just now..."

Miao Xuanxuan, with a mischievous smile, linked arms with Miao Qingqing and said, "That was just to get rid of that guy. Plus, I’ve already told my aunt that I’m your woman. It’s natural to show it a little at this time."

"I understand, but it still feels a bit strange. Just now, both of us kissing him, you..."

"He is my brother-in-law, a peck on the cheek is no big deal. When you go abroad, such a kiss on the cheek is just a greeting, okay?"

"Alright, alright, you have thick skin; I can’t be bothered to argue with you," Miao Qingqing said, giving Miao Xuanxuan a look.

Song Xiaoru and Xiao Yingying came out at this moment, Xiao Yingying giving Song Xiaodong a surreptitious thumbs-up, while Song Xiaodong wore a worried look. The Su Family’s dominance was something she had not anticipated, and facing such a behemoth, she really didn’t know if Song Xiaodong could handle it.

Sun Zi’ang and his two followers left the building with grim expressions, saying, "Those bastards, I’m going to kill them. Find an opportunity and take care of him."

These two followers were raised from childhood by the Sun family, both surnamed Sun. Their names were dictated by their martial ranking, one called Sun Sixteen and the other Sun Eighteen, meaning their ranks in strength were sixteenth and eighteenth among the Sun family’s retainers.

Their names were also not fixed; if their strength improved and they managed to defeat someone ahead of them, their names would change along with their newfound ranking.

Sun Sixteen respectfully said, "Sixth Young Master, that man is very strong. Even if we join forces, I’m afraid we don’t have a hundred percent chance of winning."

Sun Eighteen nodded and said, "Sixth Young Master, Sixteen is right. That man is very strong. I feel his level might be comparable to Brother Liu’s."

"Is he that strong?" Sun Zi’ang frowned slightly.

Sun Sixteen continued, "It’s only a feeling, but we can’t know for sure without a real fight. However, from the aura around him, it’s safe to say he might be comparable to Brother Liu."

With a stern face, Sun Zi’ang asked, "Are you suggesting that I should seek out Brother Liu or someone even stronger?"

Sun Sixteen immediately replied, "My suggestion is that we should still make an attempt to test him first, to get a feel for his true strength."

Sun Eighteen nodded vigorously and said, "Exactly. Even if we can’t kill him on the spot, we can at least force him to reveal his true capabilities."

Sun Zi’ang nodded and said, "Then I’ll leave this task to you. Hmph, that bastard, he actually told me to get lost. I’ll make him realize the price he’ll have to pay."

It was a little past six o’clock when Song Xiaodong came out from the hospital and saw Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen standing at the hospital’s entrance like javelins.

The six eyes of the three men met, and then Song Xiaodong gave a faint smile and said, "Come with me."

Without a word, Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen got into the car and followed behind Song Xiaodong’s vehicle.

The two cars sped along the road, and after more than twenty minutes, Song Xiaodong led them to an open space in the outskirts.

It was now November, and the crops in the outskirts had been harvested. At this time, the light outside was dim, but it didn’t affect masters like them. Moreover, this ensured that no onlookers would be shocked by their actions.

The three men got out of their cars, forming a triangular stance. Song Xiaodong, with hands behind his back, said indifferently, "Come on, let’s see what the Sun family’s men are really capable of."

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen had already adjusted their condition in the car. Now, without saying a word, they simultaneously took a step forward, their footsteps so synchronized that it didn’t miss a beat, showcasing the perfect coordination derived from years of training.

Song Xiaodong narrowed his eyes slightly, his hands still not moving from behind his back.

"Hiya!" The two men suddenly shouted in unison and struck out towards Song Xiaodong, one aiming for the upper body and the other for the lower body. They went all out from the get-go, clearly seeking a quick resolution.

"Well done!" Song Xiaodong’s eyes lit up. He realized he had underestimated them; their strength was indeed quite formidable.

Far from being alarmed, however, he was secretly thrilled. He had been looking to test his recently improved abilities, and normal opponents would be meaningless in this. Only against masters like them did he feel the urge to test his moves.

His right leg lifted, and Song Xiaodong directly faced Sun Eighteen’s kick, while his right fist swung up to meet Sun Sixteen’s punch.

Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen hadn’t expected Song Xiaodong to choose a head-on collision with them.

Even if Song Xiaodong was strong, dividing his attention meant he had to split his strength in two, leaving only fifty percent of his power to counter either of them.

Even if they were not as strong as Song Xiaodong, they thought the gap in strength should not be over fifty percent, so both resolutely chose to clash directly with him.

"Boom! Boom!" Two muffled sounds as their fists and legs solidly collided.

Song Xiaodong staggered three steps back, while Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen also retreated three to four steps, although their retreat was clearly more flustered, as they were forced back, while Song Xiaodong’s retreat was much more poised – the difference in skill was apparent at a glance.

Song Xiaodong was elated. He hadn’t used his full strength in that move, only sixty percent, and then divided that for both of them, which meant he managed to gain the upper hand using just thirty percent of his strength.

If it wasn’t for his substantial increase in strength, Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen would not have been affected like that. Indeed, the boost from the recent medication had proven to be highly beneficial.

In stark contrast to Song Xiaodong’s joy, Sun Sixteen and Sun Eighteen were deeply shocked. They hadn’t expected Song Xiaodong’s strength to be this formidable. With such capability, he might even surpass Sun Six, and it would probably take Sun Five to match up against Song Xiaodong.

What they didn’t know yet was that Song Xiaodong had only used sixty percent of his strength. Had they known, they wouldn’t even entertain such thoughts.
