Jiang Chen, however, stepped forward and let out a cold laugh:
"Following you? Hmph, alright then. Let me see the might of a boss like you first."
Bao Qiang lifted his head, his face full of arrogance, and said, "How do you want to see it?"
"Like this!"
Jiang Chen took a step forward, raising his hand.
"Slap―"
"Bang!"
With a sneer, Jiang Chen slapped Bao Qiang across the face and then kicked him, sending Bao Qiang tumbling to the ground.
Jiang Chen's movements were as fast as lightning, giving Bao Qiang no chance to react. He only felt a pain on his face, then a huge ache in his stomach, and found himself screaming as he was sent flying.
Gah!
The hubbub in the hall instantly ceased, and the whole world went silent!
A bunch of hoodlums stood there dumbfounded, stupidly looking at Jiang Chen.
They hadn't reacted yet; no one expected Jiang Chen to dare to hit their boss at such a time!
Do you think all of us here are just pushovers?
Su Qingqing looked at Jiang Chen with adoration, her eyes filled with infatuation.
She truly loved the strong masculine presence that radiated from Jiang Chen; it was just too cool! Too handsome!
"You dare hit me?!"
Bao Qiang covered his face, scrambled up, and furiously glared at Jiang Chen. His face burned with pain, his eardrums still ringing, and rage surged in his heart.
"Fuck! You even dare to hit our boss? You're really sick of living!"
"Boss, let's kill him!"
The bunch of ruffians finally came to their senses, suddenly alert, and they shouted angrily at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen chuckled and stared at Bao Qiang, disdainfully saying, "You call yourself a boss? And you want me to follow you? You're not worthy!"
"Seeking death!"
Bao Qiang cursed furiously, truly not expecting Jiang Chen to dare lay a hand on him. Getting hit in front of his underlings, he had lost a great deal of face.
Suddenly, a cruel cold light shone in his eyes: "Since you're courting death, I'll fulfill your wish! Cut the power, release the dogs!"
"Yes!"
A lackey at the side door responded, triggering a hidden switch.
Boom, boom, boom!
A metal gate on the side wall began to rise.
"Woof woof woof―"
A chorus of barking erupted as dozens of fierce, snarling bulldogs were unleashed from the side, led by their collars.
Each of these bulldogs was exceptionally large, as sturdy as young bulls, with sharp teeth and blood-red eyes. From their interlocking jaws hung long strings of saliva, chilling to the bone at first sight!
These bulldogs were raised by Brother Qiang, fed raw meat daily, and it was not yet their feeding time, making them even more bloodthirsty and ferocious than usual.
"Ah!" Su Qingqing let out a horrified scream and ran pale-faced to Jiang Chen's side.
"Heh, scared now, aren't you? If you're scared, kneel down for me now!" Bao Qiang sneered as he yelled at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen glanced at the group of bulldogs, a cold glint in his eyes. He gently patted Su Qingqing's shoulder to reassure her, wrapping his arm around her waist to protect her from the dogs, and then slowly drew the Tang Sword.
"Clang―"
The clear sound of the sword rang through the hall, stirring the soul.
"Come on, my sword thirsts for blood; it's perfect for slaughtering your pack of evil dogs."
The tip of Jiang Chen's sword pointed, chilling everyone to the core.
"You got guts! Release the dogs! Bite him to death!"
Bao Qiang roared furiously, and the dog handlers released the leashes, letting over twenty ferocious purebred bulldogs rush madly towards Jiang Chen.
"Ah―"
Su Qingqing screamed in utter terror, closing her eyes, unable to watch any longer.
In her heart, she kept shouting: It's over, it's over!
But Jiang Chen merely sneered, stepping forward two paces, sword in hand to meet the dogs!
"Aoow―"
A vicious dog charged forward first, its figure leaping up to over two meters, the gaping maw of blood aiming straight for Jiang Chen.
Yet Jiang Chen was not flustered at all. He understood that his opponents were beasts, cruel and ferocious, and he needed to be even more savage and brutal than them to survive.
Thus he raised his sword with both hands, his body flashing forward once more.
"Swoosh—"
A chill ran through the bloody sword light!
The sword's edge sliced across the belly of the vicious dog, spilling blood like a torrent.
And Jiang Chen's figure had dodged, avoiding the bloodstains, and with a step, he had kicked another vicious dog flying with a heavy blow.
"Awooo—"
Two pitiful whimpers rose almost simultaneously, falling, two bulldogs collapsed on the ground; one with its belly sliced open, and the other kicked in the solar plexus, both dead in an instant.
And Jiang Chen's eyes had turned red, not advancing but retreating back to Su Qingqing's side, brandishing his sword with sweeping cuts, "Swoosh, swoosh," two dull thuds followed, and two more bulldog heads were severed without even a chance to wail, thudding limply to the ground, dead as dead can be.
In the blink of an eye, four vicious dogs lay dead around Jiang Chen, their blood was pungent.
But the remaining bulldogs, far from retreating, had their beastliness aroused, their eyes blood-red as they charged in a frenzy.
"Haha, bring it on!"
Jiang Chen laughed loudly, turning and charging back in.
Hearing this laughter, Su Qingqing, who had kept her eyes tightly shut, couldn't help but stealthily open them, and then her eyes slowly widened, filled with disbelief.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—"
The sound of the sword!
"Whoosh—"
The sound of the wind!
"Awooo—"
The sound of wailing!
"Thump, thump—"
The sound of muffled impacts!
With these varied noises ensueing, Su Qingqing saw only a shadow as fast as a specter weaving through the vicious dogs, each time the bloodied blade swept by, at least one vicious dog fell.
Moments later, the sight was of bulldogs wailing in pain, their blood flowing in streams as their bodies were flung about, gore scattering, a sight too horrid to endure!
And Jiang Chen did not cease, in just a few short minutes, all those frenzied, ferocious vicious dogs had been slaughtered under Jiang Chen's blade!
By the time the last vicious dog fell, Jiang Chen slowly sheathed his sword.
His entire being was drenched in the blood of the vicious dogs, standing in the center, like a demon bathed in blood!
But in Su Qingqing's eyes, he was an unmatched hero. Could there be a more heroic hero in the world than Jiang Chen?
There wasn't!
Su Qingqing's eyes were brimming with admiration and shock!
But in the eyes of others, Jiang Chen truly was nothing but a bona fide demon!
All the hooligans were dumbstruck!
With their mouths agape, eyes wide open, they stared blankly at the scene, completely petrified!
Over twenty bulldogs, huh!
A single one could tear a man to shreds, huh!
Over twenty of them, all killed by him alone, even easier than slaughtering chickens!
Is this guy even human?
No way!
This…
Is a devil! Is a god!
Bao Qiang was scared stiff as well, his face ashen, nervously swallowing saliva.
Only now did he realize just how terrifying Jiang Chen's fighting skills were. Only now did he understand the confidence Jiang Chen had to bring a woman with him and come to his place all alone.
This was no human at all!
Bao Qiang suddenly felt weak in the knees, a sense of urgency between his legs.
He was truly scared!
