Chapter 165: Chapter 0165: Bringing Back the Dead
"See if he’s still breathing and throw him into the river. Snake said that he and Tiger were brothers after all and doesn’t want to see his body."
A stockier gangster glanced at Tiger lying motionless on the ground and ordered the others.
The purple-haired gangster nodded, squatted in front of Tiger, and reached out to probe near his nostrils.
"Now is the moment!"
Suddenly, Tiger, who had been lying still as a dead dog, sprang up, snatching the steel pipe from the purple-haired gangster and with a "bang" struck him on the head.
The gangster, caught off-guard, was hit squarely in the face and sent flying backwards over a meter, twitching a few times before lying still.
After knocking the purple-haired gangster away, Tiger hurled the steel pipe at the leader and then bolted with all his might toward the entrance of the alley.
The leader quickly dodged the pipe and when he looked again, Tiger had already run several meters. He roared: "After him!"
Tiger’s previous demeanor was all an act; he had been gathering his strength this entire time and now unleashed it all, leaving the gangsters far behind. In less than a dozen seconds, he had sprinted out of the alley.
"Help—"
Exiting the alley, he found himself on a busy main road with plenty of vehicles and pedestrians. Upon seeing Tiger drenched in blood, along with the pursuing gangsters, everyone around screamed and scattered.
......
"Is someone screaming for help?"
On the car, Chu Ge had been resting with his eyes closed when he suddenly opened them and remarked, having picked up the sound.
"Mhm." Zhao Wuji, sitting beside him, nodded and said as he looked out the car window, "Seems like a bunch of thugs are chasing someone? Heh, they’ve gone mad, daring to murder in broad daylight—a rare spectacle indeed!"
"Hm?" Chu Ge looked curiously and suddenly said, "Stop the car!"
......
"Boss, what do we do?" one of the gangsters asked anxiously.
"What else can we do?" The leader’s face was also very grim, but remembering Snake’s cruel methods, he shivered and yelled, "Finish him off fast and then run for it!"
As he spoke, Tiger screamed, his leg buckling, and he fell to the ground. Truly drained of strength now, he bit down on his teeth and slowly pushed himself forward with his arms.
"Run!" The gang finally caught up to him, and the leader kicked him in the stomach: "Not running anymore? You were all so capable, weren’t you? I’ll send you to meet King Yan right now!"
"Shua—"
Tiger let out a bitter smile, closing his eyes in despair, not expecting to die at the hands of these small fry.
To his surprise, after a few seconds, the anticipated pain never materialized. He slowly opened his eyes and saw a blade merely half a foot from his forehead!
But these few inches might as well have been a chasm, no matter how hard the leader tried, he couldn’t push the knife any further.
Because two fingers were pinching the blade!
"Mr. Chu?" Tiger seemed incredulous, blinking hard a few times.
Chu Ge just smiled, teasingly said, "Since Huo Tianqian left, I’ve seen you only twice. Last time Shi Jinghai broke all your bones and left you crippled, and this time you’re being chased by a bunch of thugs, nearly getting your head split open. Have you offended Tai Sui recently?"
Tiger let out a bitter smile and didn’t reply, but his heart finally settled.
"Who the hell are you? I warn you, kid, don’t nose around in other people’s business!"
The sight of Chu Ge pinching the blade also startled the lead thug, but recalling his underlings he blustered a challenge.
"Who am I?" Chu Ge, who had been looking down and talking to Tiger, had kept his face hidden, but when prompted by the thug’s question, he coldly laughed and slowly raised his head.
"Dang—"
The clear sound startled them, and they stumbled a few steps back, falling to the ground: "Mr. Chu? Mr. Chu... Mr. Chu?"
They had all been around Tiger and had seen Chu Ge’s abilities, so none of them even thought of resisting.
"Mr. Chu!" By then, Zhao Wuji had caught up.
"Mm." Chu Ge nodded, pointing at the gang: "Manager Zhao, do me a favor and send these thugs to the police station. For the reason, just tell the truth—preparing to commit murder in broad daylight!"
"I understand." Zhao Wuji nodded, and made a phone call.
Soon, a vehicle arrived, and several men in security uniforms jumped out carrying ropes, binding the gang securely before shoving them onto the vehicle.
"Mr. Chu, your friend doesn’t seem to be in good shape. Should I call an ambulance?" Zhao Wuji glanced at the fading Tiger and asked with concern.
"No need." Chu Ge signaled for Tiger to be moved onto the car, then climbed in himself.
Zhao Wuji’s RV was spacious enough to accommodate a person lying down. Following into the vehicle, he looked at an almost breathless Tiger and shook his head: "It’s probably too late for the hospital."
However, to his surprise, Chu Ge suddenly took out a small vial thick as two fingers and one finger tall from his chest. As soon as the vial was opened, a fragrance that delighted the senses filled the car, causing even the driver to sniff.
"This is..." Zhao Wuji widened his eyes.
But Chu Ge didn’t answer his question. Instead, he drew out a drop of crystal-clear liquid from the bottle and dropped it into Tiger’s mouth.
Simultaneously, he pocketed the bottle and put both hands to work, channeling Inner Strength, pressing firmly onto Tiger’s chest.
Zhao Wuji watched intently, not wanting to miss a single detail, sensing something that could overturn his beliefs was about to happen.
Dozens of seconds passed and Tiger’s complexion grew rosier, his breathing heavier, and finally, with a groan, he slowly opened his eyes!
"This is..." Zhao Wuji gaped at Tiger, then turned his gaze to Chu Ge: "Mr. Chu, can you bring the dead back to life?"
