"You're messing..."
Seeing Li Yang suddenly toss his chopsticks, Murong Xue asked in surprise.
But before she could finish speaking, she heard a scream from the doorway. "Ah!"
Many people were startled and looked towards the entrance.
Murong Xue also looked and saw that the chopsticks Li Yang had thrown had pierced a man's calf.
Behind this man was a group of people, all holding iron rods and similar items. Regardless of their appearance, their faces were sinister, clearly not good people.
And she recognized the man holding his leg, "Scarface!"
After a moment of愣, she grabbed a nearby stool.
The fierce man called Scarface had a grim expression. He clutched his leg and roared through gritted teeth, "This woman found us! Hurry up, all of you, get her!"
"Kill her!"
"Avenge Boss Black Flood Dragon, today, right now!"
"Kill this woman!"
A group of subordinates, hearing his words, immediately roared and charged towards them, numbering over thirty!
Murong Xue's face turned pale. If there were seven or eight such fierce men, she was confident she could handle them without injury. Even if there were seventeen or eighteen, she could fight and retreat, ultimately winning.
But in the confined space of the restaurant, fighting over thirty fierce men with only stools and chairs as weapons, she wasn't so confident she could handle it alone.
As they were about to charge, Li Yang raised an eyebrow, crushed a glass bottle, then circulated his Wuxin cultivation technique, infused it with true qi, and flung it towards them.
The glass shards rained down like a storm, enveloping all the fierce men!
However, these fierce men treated it as mere raindrops, paying no mind. Only a few wildly swung their iron rods to block; the rest charged forward with full force.
This way, they were bound to suffer greatly.
"Ahhh!!"
The glass shards were imbued with a special energy. The moment they touched them, they exploded.
Instantly, dozens of fierce men screamed in agony, their flesh and blood mangled by the explosions. A large group fell to the ground, moaning in pain, unable to get up.
As for the other fierce men, their situation wasn't much better. Either a patch of flesh was blown off their arms, or their faces were covered in debris, their faces bloody and terrifying.
Murong Xue, who was about to pick up a stool, stared in disbelief, unable to comprehend.
The leader of the group, Scarface, who had come to kill Murong Xue, also had a look of disbelief, staring blankly at Li Yang, "You, you."
"Surrender now," Li Yang said calmly.
He hadn't intended to reveal the miraculous aspects of his Wuxin cultivation technique, but to conquer a woman like Murong Xue, who was strong-willed and straightforward, he needed to display his martial prowess.
If you tried to engage such a woman in romantic talk or discuss poetry and literature, you'd only be asking for trouble. The outcome would be like fallen leaves, either turning green or yellow!
Scarface gritted his teeth and said, "What trick did you pull, kid!"
"I'll say it again, surrender," Li Yang told him.
Scarface roared, "Don't play coy, kid. It's just some chemical stuff, good for scaring others, but too naive to scare me."
"Don't think I don't know. This thing on my leg, it looks like chopsticks, but it's actually incredibly sharp... still chopsticks!"
As he spoke, he reached out to pull the chopstick from his leg. With a *plop*, blood spurted out like a small arrow. He looked down and saw it was just an ordinary chopstick!
This left him stunned.
The subordinates who had held onto some hope seeing this began to tremble. They had lost all courage to get up and fight again.
One by one, they cried out in alarm, "My Guan Erye! Plucking flowers and leaves, killing with chopsticks, this is an unparalleled master!"
"Spare us, great hero, spare us!"
"We surrender, don't kill us!"
"Shut up, all of you, shut up!" Scarface was trembling all over, but he still said, "This must be an illusion!"
"Watch me expose this kid's trick."
Saying that, he snapped a chopstick with his hand. With a *crack*, the chopstick broke in two. It was indeed made of wood, not iron.
This time, he was even more bewildered.
Li Yang said, "This is your last chance. Surrender. If you surrender, it's considered voluntary surrender, and you'll be treated leniently. Otherwise, if I attack again, it won't be your calf I pierce, but your head."
"You, I was wrong, I admit defeat!" Scarface looked at the broken chopstick in his hand, then looked up at Li Yang's calm face. His psychological defenses finally collapsed. He knelt on the ground, raising his hands high in surrender.
Li Yang nodded, then turned and said, "Team Leader Murong, call for backup to arrest them."
"Huh?" Murong Xue hadn't snapped out of it yet. "What did you say?"
"I said they've all surrendered. Hurry and call for people to arrest them. Otherwise, it won't be good for Uncle Peng's restaurant," Li Yang said.
This time Murong Xue heard him clearly but still found it hard to believe. "Okay, okay. I'll call my colleagues right away."
The Public Security Bureau office was nearby. With one call, her colleagues from the first squad of the Public Security Bureau immediately rushed over. Hearing that Scarface, the top subordinate of Black Flood Dragon, had brought people to kill Murong Xue, they all pulled out their guns and charged from the office.
Along the way, both ordinary citizens and colleagues from other squads of the Public Security Bureau were startled by their actions. Some colleagues from other squads, thinking something major had happened, also hurried to follow.
"Team Leader, Team Leader!"
"Scarface, if you dare to harm a single hair on our team leader's head, I'll make you... Team Leader?"
The colleagues from the Public Security Bureau rushed into the restaurant and saw Scarface and the others kneeling or lying on the ground, while Murong Xue sat unharmed at the dining table, eating with Li Yang. They were all stunned.
"What, what's going on, Team Leader?"
"Cough,"
Murong Xue coughed, glanced at Li Yang, then said to them, "They tried to kill me, but they weren't skilled enough. Attempted murder. Hurry up and arrest them."
"Ah?" Everyone was bewildered. "Just, just like that?"
That description was too simple!
"Stop the nonsense, hurry up and act. Don't affect Uncle Peng's business, everyone's eating!" Murong Xue glared at them, asserting her authority as team leader.
The group dared not question further and quickly took out handcuffs, arresting Scarface and the others. "Behave yourselves."
"Hmph." Scarface said with a cold face, "What are you so proud of! It wasn't you guys from the Public Security Bureau who caught me, but that man!"
