Supreme Heir Son-in-law
Chapter 85 Provocation Over and Over Again (4th Explosion Update)

The boxer, who had just finished a match in the ring, looked at this sudden appearance of a person with a somewhat dazed expression. The referee, who had received a message from Long Ge, whispered a few words in his ear. The boxer’s expression changed from confusion to seriousness, and the gaze towards Wasp became sharp.

Long Ge had once saved his life, and he always remembered this favor. However, Long Ge lacked nothing, and he had never been able to repay this debt. Instead, he had been winning money in Long Ge’s boxing ring, which made him uneasy. Now, he finally had a chance to repay the kindness.

The message Long Ge conveyed was simple: As long as he could protect himself, he should try to force the opponent to use more moves, and that was it.

In the stands, Xu Ke sat beside Long Ge. "This Wasp hasn’t shown up before, and we don’t know what’s his deal. I’ve asked Xiao Zhuang to test him. Watch closely and don’t be careless," Long Ge whispered in Xu Ke’s ear while half-turning.

"You’re not worried about my work, are you?" Xu Ke’s eyes glanced lightly at Long Ge from under his hat brim. The lights in the boxing ring, as bright as day, couldn’t dim the sparkle in Xu Ke’s eyes.

Long Ge, closest to Xu Ke, heard the cracking sound of bones colliding in Xu Ke’s body piercing through the shouts of the crowd. It reached Long Ge’s ears directly, making him purse his lips, knowing that Xu Ke was already getting excited.

In the ring, Xiao Zhuang was struggling in this match. Having just finished the previous one, he was drenched in sweat, and his stamina was waning. After hastily drinking a few sips of saltwater, he faced Wasp.

Wasp was a powerhouse type of fighter, making no unnecessary moves. He just incessantly threw punches, punch after punch, and those punches were the simplest straight punches and hook fists. He didn’t defend, only attacked relentlessly, and each punch was heavier than the last.

Soon, Xiao Zhuang’s stamina was depleted. After taking a punch to the head, he felt like he was on a roller coaster, with the scenery spinning and flipping in front of him.

"Thud!" The solid contact between his body and the ground gave Xiao Zhuang a sense of reality. His fingers twitched, his mind still fixated on Long Ge’s instructions, wanting to get up and fight Wasp, yet all his strength could only move his fingers.

After just a few rounds with Wasp, Xiao Zhuang completely lost his fighting power. The referee stood outside the ring and started the countdown.

Everyone knew Xiao Zhuang had lost. If everything went according to the rules, he would be off the stage in three seconds. But then Wasp moved, displaying a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu cross lock in front of the crowd, completely breaking Xiao Zhuang’s already limp arm.

This sudden action caught everyone off guard, but in the next second, louder screams and waves of excitement surged. They preferred this cruel and bloody competition over a disappointing no-conclusion.

"What do you mean by this?" Long Ge looked at Xiao Zhuang, bewildered in the ring. Bulging veins appeared on his bare, unshielded head like green worms crawling on Long Ge’s head, looking exceptionally eerie.

Xu Ke’s eyes, covered by the brim of his hat, lingered on Wasp, then shifted to Night Brother. The cold light in those pitch-black eyes seemed almost tangible, and veins crept up his neck.

Underneath the black mask, Xu Ke extended a tongue as red as blood, quietly licking the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, Xu Ke harbored a desire to kill!

"I’m just helping your business, Long Ge. Look how the audience loved the show just now. You aren’t mad, right? You should understand the rule that there’s no mercy in the boxing ring," the person, who previously felt humiliated by Xu Ke, felt his discontent healed upon seeing Long Ge’s outburst and even smiled more broadly.

"No mercy in the ring means even if I cripple him later, he deserves it?" Xu Ke spoke in a toneless voice.

"Exactly." Night Brother glanced at Xu Ke, his tone ambiguous.

"This round is mine," Xu Ke stretched his arms, gazing at Wasp, who interacted with the audience like a beast in the ring. Xu Ke’s eyes revealed a ruthless gaze, but it was hidden by the brim of his hat, unseen by anyone. Meanwhile, Wasp, in an excited state in the ring, suddenly felt a chill down his spine, a faint sense of danger surrounding him. When he looked up and searched the surroundings, all his focus landed on Xu Ke, and they looked at each other across the sea of spectators.

"The matches are in a wheel format. Are you safe to go up now? They still have two unplayed ones," Long Ge signaled Xu Ke to look at the other two muscle men beside Night Brother with his eyes.

The opponent’s ruthless attack this time did make Long Ge hesitant. He knew Xu Ke was strong, but even the strongest were no match for four hands in a wheel battle system. Long Ge didn’t believe anyone would never make a mistake. If a mistake happened earlier, it was just a loss of face, but now it involved personal safety, and Long Ge was a bit hesitant to let Xu Ke take the risk.

Xu Ke had done him a favor, not a grudge, pushing someone into the fire pit was against his conscience. Just as Long Ge was about to consider letting it go, a hand landed on his shoulder.

"Trust me."

Xu Ke didn’t say anything more. He patted Long Ge’s shoulder and walked off the stands towards the competition field. His two simple words inexplicably calmed Long Ge’s frantic heart, which was stirred by Night Brother’s provocation. At this moment, Xu Ke was like when he had pulled Long Ge from a life-or-death siege. He had only said those two words and then led him out of certain death.

Compared to that life-and-death situation, this was nothing.

Long Ge’s heart settled as Xu Ke appeared in the competition field.

Compared to the muscular men in the ring, Xu Ke seemed like an oddity, especially his physique and clothing, which became a target of ridicule.

"Who is this? Must be a baby who hasn’t even grown hair fully."

"With a physique like that, one punch could knock him out. What if he dies?"

"Hey, kid, this is no place for a child. Get back to where you came from."

"Yeah, looking like you, are you weaned yet?"

The audience not only jeered at Xu Ke but also wanted him to step down. Xu Ke ignored their words, only focusing on Wasp, whose eyes gleamed with pride and a smile on his lips.

"Is your boss out of people? Sending a skinny monkey like you to fight me? I’ll knock someone like you out with one punch," Wasp flashed his fist and glanced at where Xiao Zhuang had left his blood, the smugness in his eyes almost leaping out.
