Rotting Land: Survive

Chapter 292: Teasing (7)


The short man was stunned, his eyes meeting Wang Qiang's gaze from below. The towering figure, standing at 1.8 meters, loomed over him like Mount Tai.

He was somewhat intimidated by Wang Qiang's stare, as the pair of blood-red eyes seemed like a ferocious beast from Hell, ready to break through its cage and devour him whole.

Thus, under the threat of this lethal aura, the fear within the short man gained the upper hand. Losing his rationality, he panic-strickenly swung his left fist again, aiming a punch at the man's face.

"Smack!" At such a close distance, the fist landed squarely on the man's cheek. The short man even felt an intense pain in his knuckles, which only showed how terrifyingly powerful his strike was, born out of fear.

But to the short man's surprise, even this terrifying attack left Wang Qiang unmoved, standing as still as ever, his chiseled face maintaining a grim air.

"You fucking bastard!" Smack!

"Trying to scare me?!" Smack!

"You think I grew up being scared?!" Smack!

Hysterical, the short man had clearly been scared out of his wits by Wang Qiang's almost tangible murderous aura.

Punch after punch landed on Wang Qiang's face, causing one side of his cheek to turn instantly blood-red.

Yet even so, Wang Qiang didn't move a muscle, not even uttering a single grunt.

He just coldly watched the short man in front of him, but the fury in his heart was quietly gathering... rising bit by bit.

Finally, at some point, the accumulated "rage bar" reached its peak, and Wang Qiang exploded!!

The short man, in his frenzy, was engrossed in his own actions, completely unaware of the change in the person before him. The other's "indifference" gave him a delusional sense of arrogance, which made him "naturally" mistake the other's "non-resistance" for "fear." That's why he dared to "recklessly" swing his fist.

But "arrogance" always comes with a price. Unaware of anything, the short man continued to swing his fist again after a punch.

But this time...

"Smack!" The crisp sound came quicker than expected, and the excited short man was puzzled because the timing and sensation of contact were different from before.

Only to find, when he took a closer look, he was startled, as his fist hadn't landed on the other's face at all, but was instead...

Fist in hand, Wang Qiang expressionlessly held his arm high, with the short man's fist from seconds before caught within his palm.

The short man struggled desperately, trying to break free from Wang Qiang's grip, but Wang Qiang, now fully provoked, wouldn't give him another chance to create a scene.

As the palm slowly pressed down, with increasing force, the short man's grimace began to contort, eventually turning into a wail of pain.

"Ah! Let go, you bastard! Let go!" the short man screamed, collapsing because only then could he barely offset some of the pain.

Soon, he was kneeling on the ground, yet he still shouted with harsh threats, "Damn it, bastard! Quick, let go! Let go now, or when my backup arrives, you're all done for!"

"Oh? Is that so?" a deep voice came from outside the tent. As everyone was bewildered, Lin Junfu walked in expressionlessly.

Following him, Old Zhao pushed in a young guy, both wearing stern expressions.

"Kneel!" As soon as he entered, Old Zhao shoved the young guy forward and pressed down with his hand, "Were you relying on him to tip others off? Well, sorry to say, it's in vain, the reinforcements won't be coming!"

As expected, upon seeing the face of the person pushed in, the previously arrogant expression of the short man instantly changed color.

He felt a tinge of unease, an unease about his life.

Instinctively, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Wang Qiang, who was towering above him, clutching his fist.

The man stared back at him intensely, fueling the fear in his heart even more.

No doubt, without help, the five men, including the short one, were utterly powerless against the survivors.

By now, they had completely transformed from aggressors to victims, and the short man realized his life was in peril!

What to do? His mind raced. The threat to his survival, coupled with a return to some sense of rationality, made the short man swiftly issue an "appropriate" response.

"Y-you, wh-what are you all doing! There...there's got to be a good way to resolve this! D-don't, don't act recklessly! If you dare, you'll... "

"Shut your goddamn mouth!"

Wang Qiang could no longer hold back, his fierce fist like a cannonball smashed into the short man's face, causing the latter to cry out miserably:

"Ah!"

Wang Qiang paid no attention, grabbing the short man, who was knocked down onto the bed by the collar, enunciating each word, "This punch! It's for Fangfang! For bullying a child!"

Having said that, another punch followed: "This punch, it's for Wei Yang! For abusing women!"

Immediately, a third punch followed closely: "This punch, it's for myself! For failing to recognize a formidable person!"

After three punches, the short man was already bloody and battered, his face resembling a pig's head.

He was panting heavily, mumbling indistinctly, probably pleading for mercy or something.

However, Wang Qiang naturally remained indifferent to this, lifting the half-dead man from the ground again, pulling him close, and in a near-murderous tone asked:

"Do you know you've done wrong?"

The short man nodded weakly.

"Do you know you picked the wrong person to mess with?"

Again, he nodded weakly.

"Dare to be arrogant again?"

His head shook violently and uncontrollably.

Watching the short man's extremely "cooperative" behavior, a faint sneer graced Wang Qiang's cold lips, but it didn't last long, quickly replaced by ruthlessness.

By now, the short man truly wished he were dead. He had never expected that the girl he intended to toy with had such a "powerful" "protector." Initially thinking this new group would be easy to bully, yet unexpectedly, they had hit a solid wall.

Wang Qiang paused for a few seconds, and just when everyone thought he was stopping, his relaxed arm suddenly exerted force, veins bulging like dragons rising.

Instantly, Wang Qiang's final, furious punch swung out:

"The fourth punch, this punch is for my brother Tang Xiaoquan! For being insufferable!!"
