Even Zhao Yan on the other side couldn't help but chuckle.
As the saying goes, the soft fear the hard, and the hard fear those who are reckless.
Zhao Yan admitted that this man could fight, but Huang Hu's people were all reckless types.
He's acting tough here, isn't he afraid for his life?
"Kid, do you know who you're talking to? Back in the day, I wielded two machetes and took down a whole street before you were even born!"
Huang Hu sneered disdainfully, "Damn it! All my life, people have given me money, and I've never met anyone who made me pay!"
"Well, today, you've met one."
Xu Mu replied calmly.
"Boss Hu! Leave it to me, acting tough in our territory! How many lives do you have?"
A guy with dyed yellow hair stepped forward, striding towards Xu Mu, "Kid, you're asking for it!"
Yellow Hair reached out to grab Xu Mu's arm.
Boom!
Xu Mu kicked out.
Yellow Hair's body flew backward, and because people surrounded the area, he crashed into three or four others.
"I'm talking to your master."
Xu Mu said calmly.
Seeing this, the crowd scattered, running towards a nearby warehouse.
Soon, dozens of people returned, each armed.
There were rebar rods, machetes.
Lu Xueyao watched this scene, and despite overcoming her cowardice, her body still trembled uncontrollably.
So many people, all with weapons, and there were only two on their side.
How could they possibly stand a chance?
Zhang Nan's face, swollen like a pig's head, couldn't help but curl into a smile at the sight.
"Lu Xueyao! Kneel before me!"
Zhang Nan shouted at Lu Xueyao, having slapped her so many times earlier, now she wanted tenfold, a hundredfold payback.
Lu Xueyao clenched her fists, her heart pounding, she secretly glanced at Xu Mu.
It was because of her that Xu Mu got involved.
She wouldn't let Xu Mu take the risk.
"You can make me kneel, but let him go." Lu Xueyao stood up, pointing at Xu Mu.
Hearing this, Xu Mu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
This Lu Xueyao was truly loyal; she had transformed so much from the timid girl she used to be.
Of course, Xu Mu knew she was ready to risk her life.
"Let him go? Do you think that's possible?"
Zhang Nan sneered repeatedly.
Because of this person, she had suffered so much humiliation, how could she let him leave?
"Kid, I'll let you go."
Huang Hu grinned lecherously, "But you have to let your sister serve me well for a day."
"Boss Hu..."
Zhang Nan, hearing this, couldn't help but cling to Huang Hu's arm, shaking it.
"Shut up."
Huang Hu glanced coldly at Zhang Nan, scaring her into lowering her head immediately.
This Lu Xueyao was much prettier than Zhang Nan, and she feared Lu Xueyao would overshadow her in the future.
But Boss Hu was not someone she could stop.
"Fine! I agree!"
Lu Xueyao said through gritted teeth, without a second thought.
Xu Mu stood up from the couch and slapped Lu Xueyao.
However, this time it wasn't on the face, but on the butt.
Lu Xueyao let out a soft moan, her face suddenly flushed with a rosy hue.
"I told you yesterday, something so important can't be given away lightly. If you dare do it again, I'll punish you."
Xu Mu glanced at Lu Xueyao, "I just said, I'll help you to the end, just watch quietly."
Lu Xueyao nodded gently, standing beside Xu Mu.
"Kid, do you think I don't dare to make a move?"
Huang Hu stared coldly at Xu Mu, "Make him lie down first! I want to see blood!"
Zhang Nan couldn't help but smile upon hearing this.
Just as these people were about to act, the sound of numerous cars screeching to a halt suddenly came from outside.
Everyone inside looked out the window and saw the entrance blocked by black Buick GL8s.
There were at least a dozen of them.
As the car doors opened, a group of tall men in suits quickly walked in.
Leading them was Wang Biao.
Huang Hu looked at the nearly hundred people, momentarily unable to react.
However, having dominated the area for over a decade, even though he was scared, he kept a calm face.
He walked over and asked indifferently, "Which gang are you from?"
Bang!
Wang Biao didn't say a word, punching Huang Hu in the face, causing blood to gush from his nose.
Before Huang Hu could fall, Wang Biao grabbed his hair and lifted him back up, "Get them!"
Crash!
The men in suits charged at Huang Hu's underlings like a mob.
The fight was entirely one-sided.
Huang Hu's underlings were basically just thugs, bullying others with their numbers.
But Wang Biao's men were all well-trained.
Zhao Yan was completely terrified, unable to even speak to say he wasn't one of Huang Hu's men.
He was punched in the temple and fell to the ground instantly.
In just a few seconds, all of Huang Hu's men were down.
The only ones left standing were Zhang Nan and a few other girls.
Everything happened so quickly that no one present could react.
Once they did, they realized it was already over.
Huang Hu, worthy of being a local boss, roared, "If you have the guts, kill me! Otherwise, in the future..."
"Noisy! Break one of his arms."
Wang Biao frowned.
The crew-cut man behind Wang Biao didn't say a word, swung a knife, and Huang Hu's entire right arm flew off.
The entire room was stunned.
Who were these people?
Huang Hu was dazed, and so were his underlings.
They fought sometimes, but who would be so ruthless?
Compared to these people, they were just playing games.
"Ah!"
The pain made Huang Hu scream like a slaughtered pig.
But Wang Biao just looked at Huang Hu calmly, scaring him into immediately shutting his mouth, not daring to make a sound.
Large beads of sweat rolled down Huang Hu's forehead, but he didn't dare make a sound.
"Young Master Xu, I have a grudge against these people, and we're here for revenge today."
Wang Biao came up to Xu Mu and said loudly.
Hearing this, the people present understood.
What he said meant he was here to deal with these people, and it had nothing to do with Xu Mu.
Even if there's an investigation, Xu Mu would be fine.
To put it bluntly, it's about admitting that you're the scapegoat.
This is the ancient concept of a death warrior!
Huang Hu knew he had provoked someone important.
At this moment, he didn't dare to look at Xu Mu but instead stared intently at Zhang Nan.
It was all because of this troublesome woman that he got involved with such a powerful figure.
Zhang Nan noticed Huang Hu's murderous gaze, and she felt her body weaken, her legs paralyzed as she collapsed to the ground.
The women around her were in the same state.
It was over!
In their eyes, the once high-and-mighty Brother Hu was now like a dead dog, lying on the ground before this person.
Tears streamed down Zhang Nan's face; she wanted to beg for mercy but was too terrified to speak.
Xu Mu approached Huang Hu, looking down at him and said, "Weren't you quite fierce back then? Didn't you once take down an entire street?"
"Brother, I was wrong. I didn't recognize greatness when I saw it. Please let me go."
Huang Hu trembled as he spoke.
He knew very well that he might not survive today.
"Let me tell you a little secret: the truly strong ones are those sipping red wine and playing with stocks."
Xu Mu said softly.
"Yes, I understand, I understand."
Huang Hu replied, his voice shaking.
At this moment, Xu Mu walked over to Zhang Nan, crouched down, and said calmly, "Do you have any other brothers? Take me to them."
