Ha ha...

The laughter grew even louder, but Brother Hong felt somewhat embarrassed. In a battle of wits, he guessed he was no match for this woman. He sneered, "You shameless wench, don't be ungrateful. I'm not here for you today, I'm here for Lin Chuan."

"Feiying Association is crossing boundaries." Fang Yuan glanced around and said, "Brothers of Jiangbei City, are you really going to let them run wild like this? Letting these people from the provincial city harass the women of Jiangbei City and bully the men? Can you really tolerate that!"

"Damn, who the hell can swallow this indignation?"

"Exactly, let's take them on."

Whoosh...

Immediately, dozens of men at the scene picked up stools from the bar, and those who couldn't find stools simply clenched their fists. The Night Color Bar was hardly a place for respectable folks, mostly filled with ruffians and vagabonds, and though there were some white-collar workers relaxing there, they had already fled when these folks entered. Provoked by Fang Yuan and with alcohol fuelling their courage, these scoundrels became righteously indignant.

Brother Hong felt he couldn't keep his face anymore, he hadn't expected this woman to be so incendiary.

"Damn it, who dares to mess around." Brother Hong, holding a baseball bat, roared, "After I'm done with Lin Chuan, I'm taking on each of you motherfuckers!"

"What a big tone." Lin Chuan finally couldn't sit still. Being protected by a woman, what was this? It was totally not his style. Thus, Lin Chuan decided to step up and resolve this issue himself.

"Who the hell are you?" Brother Hong gritted his teeth and asked.

"I am the Lin Chuan you're looking for!" Lin Chuan replied calmly and then walked over slowly.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Lin Chuan. This guy had some nerve, standing out at such a time. Did he really intend to take on fifty or sixty people from Feiying Association alone? Many in the bar had heard of Lin Chuan but had never seen him in person. This time, they finally saw Lin Chuan himself.

"Is he the third top figure in Jiangbei City?"

"Right, only next to the Northeast Tiger and Feng Taibao. It's said he's on the rise now, holding control over Haiqing Pool, a treasure trove."

"Wow, Haiqing Pool, huh? The girls there are indeed very nice."

Everyone chattered, the legendary third figure was quite a mystery, and unexpectedly, this person had been right among them. To them, Lin Chuan seemed nothing distinctive, just a little more handsome. Aside from that, there seemed nothing extraordinary about him. Wearing a white shirt and a pair of jeans, he looked just like your standard IT guy. No one could imagine he was one of the top three figures of the eastern district of Jiangbei City.

In their eyes, a real mysterious figure should be like the Northeast Tiger and Feng Taibao, elusive as a dragon, stepping out in luxury cars, living in mansions, typically wrapping in a black coat, wearing sunglasses, with a sharp look that could kill thousands with a glance.

The Lin Chuan in front of them was somewhat a disappointment.

"So, you're Lin Chuan?" Brother Hong examined Lin Chuan up and down more than ten times. He had always thought Lin Chuan was an incredibly powerful figure, able to make Feng Taibao seek help from Feiying Association and even making the Northeast Tiger acknowledge his position in the eastern district. Seeing him now, he seemed just ordinary.

"Yes." Lin Chuan nodded, his face solemn.

"I'll be damned…" Brother Hong suddenly burst into incredulous laughter and said, "So you're Lin Chuan, I've had such a hard time looking for you."

"Feiying Association looking for me, must be up to no good," Lin Chuan said with a smile.

"You got that right." Brother Hong raised his baseball bat, pointing at Lin Chuan, and said, "Listen up, kid. From now on, the transportation market and Haiqing Pool belong to the Thirteen Grand Protectors. Also, your woman is in my hands. Heh, I will take good care of her tonight."

Upon hearing this, the veins on Lin Chuan's arms and neck bulged.

"What did you say?!" Lin Chuan's face darkened.

"Kid, it's too late to react now." Brother Hong grinned and said, "Haiqing Pool is probably already occupied by the Thirteen Grand Protectors, and there were too few people in the transportation market, I didn't get enough fun, so I simply tied up that girl and a few of your men."

Whoosh...

Suddenly, everyone felt a white figure flash by.

Boom...

The Brother Hong standing before everyone's eyes suddenly vanished.

Brother Hong felt a blur before his eyes, followed by a severe pain from his chest, and then a huge force instantly sent him flying. His body harshly landed on a sofa in the bar, and Brother Hong sat down hard, feeling intense pain in his chest.

"Ouch…" Brother Hong clutched his chest.

However, it seemed the ordeal wasn't over yet. Before everyone could snap out of what seemed like a dream-like Illusion Realm, they immediately noticed a problem—Lin Chuan had somehow appeared right in front of Brother Hong, completely unnoticed.

Brother Hong was startled by Lin Chuan's sudden appearance, and he exclaimed, "What… what are you trying to do?"

"Where is the person you kidnapped?" Lin Chuan asked.

"Damn it!" Brother Hong leaped up, raising the baseball bat in his hand, and swung it towards Lin Chuan in an instant.

Lin Chuan grabbed the baseball bat swung by Brother Hong and sneered, "You think you can fight me with this meager strength?"

"What are you guys standing around for? Attack!" Brother Hong shouted.

A bunch of underlings who were watching the action quickly reacted, and the group swarmed up.

Lin Chuan seized the baseball bat from Brother Hong's hand and instantly charged into the crowd. Lin Chuan's speed and strength were formidable, and he was also very agile. Dodging left and right, the baseball bat in his hand smashed accurately with every swing.

Soon, the crowd realized Lin Chuan's attack pattern; he was consistently aiming his baseball bat at their heads. The heavy bat could create a swollen bump with each strike, immediately causing severe swelling, and a hit to the head like that would knock someone out instantly. Many were already down.

Facing the attack of dozens of people, Lin Chuan was fearless, fighting even more fiercely.

To Lin Chuan, these people were no match for him at all. Even with their combined efforts, they posed no real threat to him. Normally, Lin Chuan wouldn't severely hurt these people, but their excessive bullying, and the fact that they had kidnapped Zhou Rui, was something Lin Chuan could not tolerate.

Bang bang...

Under Lin Chuan's sharp and rapid attacks, the opposition quickly fell apart. More than a dozen or twenty people were left dizzy and sprawling on the ground, unable to stand up. Those at the back didn't dare to rush forward anymore, simply surrounding him without attacking.

Lin Chuan coldly looked at the bunch, scolding, "A bunch of useless trash."

Lin Chuan's fierce onslaught was thrilling for the onlookers. This time, they truly witnessed how formidable Lin Chuan was. It had to be said, Lin Chuan indeed showed them what a real master is. They also understood why Dongbei Tiger and Feng Taibao had to give Lin Chuan some respect.

"So formidable."

"Tsk tsk, truly a master, no wonder he's the number three figure in the eastern district."

The onlooking crowd discussed animatedly, not only gaining a lesson today but also some juicy stories to share when mingling in various bars in the future.

Seeing the situation turn dire, Brother Hong knew his men couldn't withstand Lin Chuan, so he sneakily prepared to escape.

"Stop!" Lin Chuan shouted at Brother Hong's back.

"Ah!" Brother Hong was instantly stunned, leaning against the wall awkwardly, and said, "Lin Chuan, what… what do you want?"

"Tell your men to release the person." Lin Chuan turned to stare at Brother Hong.

Brother Hong shuddered all over, saying awkwardly, "You guys, what are you staring at? Release her!"

Brother Hong was the type to bully the weak and fear the strong, knowing he was no match for Lin Chuan, he immediately chose to submit, as it was the only way he could save himself. So, he dared not make any rash moves. A few younger brothers quickly ran out.

Soon, Li Qiang and some brothers escorted Zhou Rui into the bar.

"Brother Chuan!"

"Lin Chuan!"

From outside, several familiar voices were heard. Zhou Rui was clearly still shaken. Her expression was dazed, and upon seeing Lin Chuan, she immediately burst into tears and rushed into Lin Chuan's arms, excitedly saying, "Lin Chuan, you finally came."

"I'm sorry you were frightened." Lin Chuan held Zhou Rui, feeling a strong desire to protect her.

Zhou Rui cried hard in Lin Chuan's embrace. Lin Chuan smiled and said, "Stop crying, otherwise you'll turn into a big cry-baby cat."

"I won't." Zhou Rui wiped her tears, saying, "I won't become a big cry-baby cat."

"Brother Chuan, I'm afraid the transportation market has been taken over," Li Qiang spoke.

"I know." Lin Chuan nodded and said, "Not just the transportation market, I'm afraid Haiqing Pool can't be saved either."

"What?! " Li Qiang was visibly shocked.
