"You little brat, you're courting death."
Second Young Master aimed his gun at Leng Shao's head.
"Damn it, you think you're the only one with a gun?"
Leng Shao craned his neck, showing no fear.
"Hm?"
Second Young Master felt something was off. He looked down and saw Leng Shao's right hand slightly raised. In his hand was a small pistol, its muzzle now pointed at his crotch.
"Second Young Master, is it? If you're so tough, shoot then. I've got a cheap life, and whether I live or die doesn't matter. But I guarantee, before I die, I'll shoot you and turn you into a eunuch for the rest of your life."
"You son of a bitch."
"Shoot!"
"Do you think I'm afraid to shoot you dead?"
Bang—
The gun actually fired.
It wasn't Second Young Master who fired, but Leng Shao who shot first. However, Leng Shao didn't aim for Second Young Master's crotch, but at his right leg, causing a burst of bright red blood.
"Ah, damn it."
Second Young Master gritted his teeth in pain.
Bang—
Leng Shao fired a second shot.
Second Young Master's left leg was also hit.
"I'll kill you, damn it."
Second Young Master roared and raised his gun to shoot, but Leng Shao snatched it away. In too much pain to stand, Second Young Master plopped onto the ground, looking utterly pathetic.
"Director!"
"Director, are you alright?"
"Damn it, Director, should we open fire?"
A group of police captains surrounded them, shouting.
"Take him down, take them down."
Second Young Master trembled and roared.
"Open fire."
"Shoot them dead."
"Go on..."
The captains shouted their orders.
"Who dares?"
Leng Shao suddenly stepped forward, kicked over two police officers, and then lifted the sprawled Second Young Master. He had his left arm around his neck and held the pistol in his right hand, pointing it at his temple.
"Anyone who dares to fire, I'll shoot him."
Leng Shao yelled arrogantly.
The police officers froze instantly.
A normal person, even holding Second Young Master hostage, wouldn't dare to shoot so easily. But this Leng Shao was different; he had already fired twice, and he was truly capable of killing Second Young Master.
"Bastard, do you dare to kill me?"
The controlled Second Young Master roared hoarsely.
Bang—
Leng Shao shot off Second Young Master's ear.
"Your mother, I don't care what your surname is, nor do I care about your identity. From now on, every word you utter will earn you a shot. But don't worry, I'll save one bullet for your death."
Leng Shao was becoming increasingly unhinged.
"..."
Second Young Master truly dared not speak anymore.
He was genuinely defeated by this reckless fool!
"Enough!"
Eldest Young Master Jin finally spoke.
Wearing his military uniform and with one hand behind his back, he looked at his half-dead second brother, shook his head, and ignored Leng Shao. Instead, he took a few steps towards Ye Zi Xiao, putting away his pistol.
Ye Zi Xiao lit a cigarette.
He appeared extremely nonchalant.
"Ye Zi Xiao."
"Hm?"
"You know who we are, and you know our identities. Since that's the case, you still crippled my third brother and had my second brother beaten to a pulp. In other words, you've made up your mind to be an enemy of the Jin family?"
"Heh heh!"
"What does heh heh mean?"
"Heh heh means I can't be bothered with you."
"Ye Zi Xiao, aren't you being too arrogant?"
"So what if I am?"
The last sentence was spoken by Jiang Xiao Yao.
She sat beside Ye Zi Xiao, crossed her long legs, and said with a serene smile, "Eldest Young Master Jin, even if we didn't provoke you, would your Jin family let us go?"
Eldest Young Master looked at Jiang Xiao Yao.
His face revealed his sinister intentions.
"Would you let us go?"
Jiang Xiao Yao repeated with a smile.
"No!"
Eldest Young Master grinned sinisterly and laid his cards on the table.
"That's right. The Jin family fears Ye Zi Xiao's current influence. For whatever reason, your Jin family won't let us off, so let's stop pretending and fight openly!"
"You want to fight openly?"
"What, is your Jin family afraid?"
"Who has our Jin family ever been afraid of?"
"Very well, let's fight openly then. Three days from now, at Beishan Park outside the northern suburbs of Longdu, bring out your Jin family's full strength. We'll have a battle of experts against experts and settle this like men."
"Jiang Xiao Yao, you're challenging the Jin family?"
"Stop the nonsense. Do you dare to fight or not?"
"Hahaha, hahaha..."
"I'll take that as your acceptance."
Jiang Xiao Yao stood up, put her hands in her pockets, and approached Eldest Young Master, smiling charmingly. "If your Jin family wins, I, Jiang Xiao Yao, will gladly become your concubine. But I hope you won't go back on your word!"
With that, Jiang Xiao Yao turned and waved.
Ye Zi Xiao, who had been listless all day, stood up and flicked his cigarette butt away. He didn't even bother looking at the Jin family members, but walked over to Leng Shao and patted his shoulder.
"Shall we go, Brother Xiao?"
"Let's go."
"They..."
"It's fine, they won't dare to mess around."
"Why?"
"Because they don't have any experts with them today."
Ye Zi Xiao said, then walked away with his hands behind his back.
"Got it!"
Leng Shao grinned triumphantly. Like a pervert, he leaned close to Second Young Master's ear and said, "I'll be waiting for you in three days, okay? You absolutely must come. Oh, right, you won't sneak attack me, will you?"
"..."
Second Young Master was almost driven mad.
But he still dared not speak.
He was terrified that Leng Shao would shoot him dead!
"Let's go, hahahaha..."
Leng Shao waved goodbye with an extremely arrogant laugh.
Old Teng and Jasmine, Old Wei and Little Bao, all sheathed their weapons and strode after Ye Zi Xiao and Jiang Xiao Yao. Not one of them looked back, showing their absolute confidence.
"Brother..."
Second Young Master cried out from the ground.
"Second brother, calm down."
Eldest Young Master walked over to Second Young Master, shook his head at him, and said, "Ye Zi Xiao is right. We don't have any experts with us today. If we truly enrage Ye Zi Xiao, none of us three brothers will be able to leave."
"So we're just going to let it go?"
"Of course, we can't just let it go. In three days, we'll fight openly. This is Longdu, and we are the Jin family. Even if Ye Zi Xiao has heaven-defying abilities, his death is certain in three days."
"I'm going to kill them myself!"
Second Young Master's expression turned extremely menacing.
Yes, Jiang Xiao Yao's assessment was correct. Given Ye Zi Xiao's current strength and influence, the Jin family of Longdu could not possibly not be wary. If Ye Zi Xiao remained alive, the Jin family would never sleep soundly.
Why was this the case?
Because with the Jin family's information network, they could basically uncover everything about Ye Zi Xiao. Even if they couldn't find out who his masters were, they would definitely find out who his father was.
The Ye family had always been a concern for the Jin family.
Coupled with Ye Zi Xiao's financial resources and mercenary group, the status of Ye Zi Xiao's senior sisters, and his influence in Sunset Country and Wu Country, the Jin family would absolutely not allow Ye Zi Xiao to continue growing stronger.
Since a fight was inevitable.
They might as well fight openly.
Jiang Xiao Yao had already disobeyed her master's orders, which proved she had made up her mind. That was why she had accepted the challenge on behalf of Ye Zi Xiao, and it was time for the Shura Gate to show its true strength.
"Do you have confidence?"
Ye Zi Xiao asked Jiang Xiao Yao as they were in the car.
"The Jin family is not easy to deal with!"
Jiang Xiao Yao shook her head slightly with a calm expression.
"If you're unsure, you still dared to accept the challenge?"
"I'm unsure, but I have you!"
"Senior sister, do you think that highly of me?"
"Don't you always say you're invincible?"
"I'm just bragging!"
"I believe you."
"Hahaha..."
Ye Zi Xiao smiled and looked out the car window.
The night view of Longdu was truly beautiful...
