At this moment, a series of piercing screams erupted from the crowd, which then dispersed.

Several blue city management enforcement vehicles drove up, three cars in total, carrying twelve people. The twelve city management officers approached, led by a man with a protruding belly, about 1.6 meters tall, but his belly was not small, making him look like a plump ball. Behind him was a tall and skinny person holding a law enforcement camcorder.

"Who is in charge here?" the fat leader barked.

"I am." Zhou Kai jumped down from the stage.

"Who allowed you to build this mess here?" the fat man looked up at Zhou Kai and scolded angrily: "Did it go through approval? Show me the approval document."

"Why do we need city management's approval to set up a stage in our community?" Zhou Kai asked, puzzled.

"This land belongs to the City Committee." The city management officer glared at Zhou Kai, who was taller and more robust than him, but he was not afraid at all, instead revealing a cold smile: "Since it's the City Committee's land, you must accept our jurisdiction. This kind of unauthorized construction is illegal, and I order you to dismantle it immediately. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."

"Dream on." Zhou Kai flatly rejected the request.

"So, are you refusing to dismantle it?" the fat city manager said angrily.

"That's right." Zhou Kai nodded without fear.

"Brothers, take it down for me," the fat city manager bellowed.

"Who dares to cause trouble in Changlin Factory," Zhou Kai said, and immediately took two hatchets from his belt.

Clang clang clang...

More than a dozen city managers hurried over. They had the advantage in weapons, whereas Zhou Kai's hatchets were clearly at a disadvantage. At that moment, Lin Chuan jumped down from the stage and said, "What a power trip for a mere city management captain. Does setting this stage up here affect the city's appearance? Does it obstruct pedestrian traffic? Not a single worker from our factory has complained, yet your city management's behind is more proactive than your brain."

"Damn, you looking for trouble?" the fat city manager turned and grabbed a thick iron club, the width of three fingers, from the enforcement vehicle.

"You dare to hit people?" Lin Chuan looked at the man coldly.

"I'm going to beat you," he said as he swung the iron club viciously towards Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan raised his hand and actually caught the iron club swinging towards him.

Bang...

In the blink of an eye, Lin Chuan lightly tripped the fat man. Already unsteady, the fat man immediately fell. Lin Chuan used a subtle strength under his foot, and the other man rolled back several meters like a ball.

"Captain Liu, Captain Liu." Several city managers rushed over to help.

At this time, the city manager holding the camcorder intentionally avoided recording the scene where the city managers hit someone, and instead, recorded Lin Chuan kicking. This selective recording tactic was effortless for a specialized camcorder operator like him.

Spit...

Captain Liu nearly got dizzy from the fall, covering his head and cursing, "Dammit, he hit me, he hit me, what are you all waiting for, get him. Fix him up."

Clang clang clang...

More than ten people, armed with steel rebars and iron clubs over a meter long, surrounded them. The old workers from Changlin Community were scared and dodged out of the way.

"Brothers, let's fight them," one of them roared.

There were only a few brothers left guarding the factory; the rest had gone to handle sand and cement, not having the time to idle here. Three or four lads armed themselves and ran out from the factory. They were only five people in total, while the other side had more than a dozen, all coming prepared, each with a steel rebar or iron club over a meter long.

"No need." Zhou Kai shook his head and said: "With Brother Chuan here, even if there were dozens more of them, there's no need to be afraid."

Lin Chuan, holding an iron club in one hand, sneered: "Here's a saying for you: Evil never goes unpunished. Even a toe could guess that it was Liu Jianguo who sent you. Tell him, if he dares to make trouble again, don't blame us for not being polite."

Lin Chuan knew that his people would be at a disadvantage if they were to physically clash with the others, especially since the other side had backup. How many people were with him? Hence, he could not drag his few brothers into hot water. It was clear that this was targeted at him. This so-called Captain Liu was probably in league with the police station.

"Heh heh, you sure know what's good for you," Captain Liu chuckled and said, "Brother, let's make a deal, dismantle this place, and let's avoid any damage to our relations, how about it?"

"In your dreams!" Lin Chuan spoke disdainfully.

"So, what do you want to do?" Captain Liu sneered: "Let me tell you, don't shirk the toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit."

"Want me to dismantle it? It's not impossible," Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Pick a few people, as long as you can beat me. I'll dismantle the stage and even kneel to you, how about that?"

"Really?" Captain Liu heard this and was immediately overjoyed.

"Of course!" Lin Chuan nodded.

"Just don't regret it later!" Captain Liu laughed heartily.

"A gentleman's words are as swift as a whip on a fast horse." Lin Chuan scoffed with disdain.

At that moment, Captain Liu pointed at several tall and burly urban management officers behind him and ordered, "You guys, take off your clothes."

"Huh?!" They were stunned, and someone embarrassingly said, "It's not appropriate to strip down in broad daylight."

"What's with all the nonsense?" Captain Liu retorted irritably, "Hurry up and take them off. Once you've removed your uniforms, you are no longer urban management officers. We can't tarnish the image of the urban management."

"Yes, yes!" Upon hearing this, they immediately understood the intent of their superior.

Soon after, the tall and robust men hurriedly took off their clothes. Some wore thermal underwear underneath, while others only had a vest on. In the cold weather, they indeed felt somewhat helpless, shivering with their limbs drawn close.

Captain Liu smiled and said, "Lin Chuan, I've picked five men here. Don't go saying I won unfairly later on."

"You could bring even five more." Lin Chuan tossed his iron rod aside, then took a few slow steps forward and loosened up his limbs.

"If you lose, you'll dismantle your stall honestly, and then kneel down and sing 'Conquer' for me," Captain Liu bellowed angrily.

"Alright." Lin Chuan nodded.

"You guys, beat him for me," Captain Liu chuckled sinisterly, "If you win, I'll reward each of you with five thousand yuan when we get back."

Upon hearing this, their eyes lit up; five thousand yuan was not easily earned.

"Kid, don't blame us for not being polite." The leading bruiser immediately charged at Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan also rushed forward to meet him.

Slap!

Lin Chuan spread his palm open, and the man's fist hit right onto it. Lin Chuan's hand seemed like a clump of soft cotton, instantly gripping the man's fist. Lin Chuan grinned and said, "Heh, it's going to hurt a lot now, you better endure it."

Crack...

The man hadn't even reacted when he let out an agonizing scream. A crisp sound came from his fist, and he immediately felt a piercing pain.

"Mommy, it hurts to death," the man wailed.

The remaining four quickly rushed forward.

Lin Chuan slapped his hand on the man's shoulder, leveraged a jump, and his legs, like two sturdy wooden pillars, slammed into the opponents.

Bang bang!

Two men immediately fell down, toppling backward like two logs.

The last two hesitated a bit, but seeing Captain Liu's resentful gaze behind them, they gritted their teeth and surged forward. However, these two guys were clearly no match.

Even though they bravely rushed forward, before they even took two steps, they suddenly felt a heavy blow to the back of their heads. Dizzy, they quickly collapsed to the ground.

Pat pat!

Lin Chuan dusted off his body, spotless, not even gasping for breath.

"Captain Liu, your men have lost," Lin Chuan said with a smile.

"You!" Captain Liu's face went through a series of changes, turning various shades of anger and embarrassment.

"As officials, you should keep your word!" Zhou Kai and the others shouted one after another.

"Right, words must count." Residents from Changlin Factory also began to shout excitedly, their indignation palpable.

Clenching his teeth in anger, Captain Liu said, "Fine, good. Very well. In that case, we'll take our leave first."

Having said that, Captain Liu turned and walked away with a face full of mixed emotions, filled with rage. He was close to exploding with anger. Behind him, the other urban management officers hurriedly helped their injured brothers onto the vehicle and then skulked away from the scene.
