Starforce Warriors

Chapter 137: Decisive And Ruthless

Li Xiaofei recognized Ye Chenglong's voice and felt a surge of joy. Ye Xiang's notorious troublemaker son had come to him. This was the perfect opportunity to settle their scores.

He jumped off the motorcycle, gesturing for Zhong Ling to wait by the bike. He feigned surprise as he approached Ye Chenglong and asked, "So it's you. What do you want?"

"What do I want?" Ye Chenglong sneered gleefully. "You made me lose such a precious opportunity. What do you think I want?"

"I advise you not to do anything rash," Li Xiaofei said. "This is a rule-of-law district."

"Haha, rule-of-law district? In our Ye family's territory, we are the law."

Ye Chenglong gestured, and twenty to thirty men in black tactical gear surrounded them. Each held a titanium-alloy electric baton, capable of delivering a powerful electric shock that could incapacitate a tenth stage Qi Refining Realm martial artist instantly.

"I am a participant in the high school league, under special legal protection from the Education Department," Li Xiaofei stated.

"Haha, what's the Education Department to me?" Ye Chenglong felt everything was under his control, so his arrogance was fully on display. "My father, Ye Xiang, is the boss of Yongxing Hotel. The Education Department signs bills worth millions at our hotel. Do you think they would oppose the Ye family for a little brat like you?"

"You'll have to take responsibility for what you say," Li Xiaofei warned.

"Haha, responsibility? I’ll take responsibility. Even if Gao Changlin from the Education Department were standing here, I’d say the same thing," Ye Chenglong laughed wildly. "You little bastard, stop talking nonsense. If you kneel down now and lick my shoes, I might just break one of your legs instead of both."

Li Xiaofei added, "You probably don't know that I received both the Kunlun Badge and the Qinling Badge at tonight's banquet. If you touch me, you'll bring enormous trouble upon yourself."

"Huh? HAHAHA." Ye Chenglong laughed wildly. "You think I'll believe that? You little brat who's never seen the world, at least make it believable if you're going to lie. Getting two major badges in one night? There's no precedent for that in Liuhe Base City."

"What if it's true?" Li Xiaofei replied calmly.

Ye Chenglong sneered, "If it's true, well, then I'll beat you up first to vent my anger and then finish you off to keep you quiet."

"Alright then," Li Xiaofei said, beckoning with his hand. "What are you waiting for? Make your move."

Ye Chenglong waved his hand. "Get him. Cripple him but leave him alive. I want to have my fun."

The hired gang members immediately closed in on Li Xiaofei while swinging their titanium-alloy tactical batons. As they approached, they suddenly threw a net made of alloy barbs, trying to ensnare him. An ordinary tenth stage martial artist at the Qi Refining Realm who was caught off guard by such an attack would be completely incapacitated.

These men had clearly studied Li Xiaofei and had prepared the net to counter his techniques. Fortunately, Li Xiaofei was well-versed in such tricks from his time dealing with gangs in the slum. He used the Three Steps Cicada Catch to swiftly and gracefully dodge the net.

Swish.

Li Xiaofei became a blur, darting out of the range of the alloy barbed net. He reversed his grip on the Dragon Fang Sword and charged into the midst of the gang members.

"What about the girl?" A lackey beside Ye Chenglong asked.

Ye Chenglong glanced at Zhong Ling, a look of lust flashing in his eyes.

He sneered, "Do you even need to ask? After we deal with Li Xiaofei, we'll follow the usual routine. We'll take turns with her. Just make sure not to injure her too badly like last time. Afterwards, we can still sell her for a good price... no one will know."

Li Xiaofei overheard their conversation in the midst of the fight. He was shocked.

Is Ye Chenglong actually this brazen?

Even though it was late at night, this was still a rule-of-law district. These rich brats were acting worse than the gangsters in the slum. From the way he spoke, it was clear they were repeat offenders.

The sound of the sword cutting through flesh filled the air. Over twenty gang members fell to the ground, screaming in pain. There were even some skilled tenth stage fighters at the Qi Refining Realm, but none could last even a moment in the face of a Li Xiaofei who wasn’t holding back.

The titanium-alloy tactical batons they wielded were like paper against the former Dragon Fang Gang's short sword. The blade, made from an Earth Dragon’s tooth, effortlessly sliced through the batons, and wasn't conductive, rendering their electric shocks useless.

By the time Ye Chenglong and his men realized what was happening, the black-clad thugs were already sprawled on the ground.

"How is this possible?"

Ye Chenglong was stunned. He had learned about Li Xiaofei from the streamer Yunyun. He knew this guy was the dark horse of the high school league, and had the combat strength to take down tenth stage fighters at the Qi Refining Realm.

So he had hired gang members who were mostly ninth stage and tenth stage elites. They had also prepared adequately with weapons and tactics. He had thought a twenty-to-one advantage would be an easy capture.

Ye Chenglong panicked when he saw the black-clad thugs sprawled all over the ground. Li Xiaofei’s short sword was dripping blood as he slowly walked forward.

"You... you stay away. What do you want?" Ye Chenglong instinctively retreated.

The sword's light flashed in the night as a few more lackeys fell into pools of blood. Ye Chenglong was terrified out of his wits. He had actually killed people. He had really dared to kill people.

"Do you... do you know what you've done?" Ye Chenglong stammered, trying to run but finding his legs too weak to move.

Li Xiaofei couldn't be bothered to waste any more words as he swung his sword. Ye Chenglong clutched his neck and fell. The vile young man twitched and struggled in the pool of blood for a few moments before going completely still.

Li Xiaofei wiped the blood off his sword on Ye Chenglong's clothes. He then instinctively began to search the body. After a few moments, he realized that tonight was not about killing for loot. He put the items he found back. Then he sheathed his sword as if nothing had happened.

Zhong Ling felt a chill run down her spine as she looked around at the bodies strewn across the ground. She knew Li Xiaofei was formidable. She also knew he was decisive in battle. But she hadn't expected him to dare to kill all these people in a rule-of-law district.

"Will this cause trouble?" Zhong Ling asked, concerned, as Li Xiaofei calmly walked towards her. "The police will definitely investigate such a major murder case in a rule-of-law district."

Li Xiaofei gave her a reassuring look. "Don’t worry. This was self-defense. They attacked first, and I had no choice. Besides, I have my connections. Let's get out of here before more people arrive."

Li Xiaofei accessed the camera on his heavy motorcycle. He reviewed the video, watching the entire sequence of events.

"The law states that organizing unidentified violent individuals to threaten and attack the holder of both the Kunlun and Qinling badges is an unforgivable crime. No matter what actions I take, it will not be considered excessive defense," Li Xiaofei said calmly.

He mounted the motorcycle, started the engine, and took Zhong Ling with him. At the same time, he dialed 999 to report the incident.

"Some criminals attacked a good citizen on Kangming Street. They have been neutralized... Yes, the means were very brutal. Please send police forces quickly," Li Xiaofei said over the phone.

After hanging up, he sent the earlier video footage to the police. Zhong Ling, holding onto Li Xiaofei's waist, felt a mixture of shock and admiration as she reflected on the events.

She now realized that this strong and resolute man was already living in a different world than hers. He would soar to great heights, shining with dazzling brilliance. One day, he would astonish the entire Northwest District.

As for herself... Zhong Ling clung tightly to Li Xiaofei's back, as if trying to merge herself into his body. Li Xiaofei remained silent. It seemed like a gust of wind would blow away the frail girl behind him.
