Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 1054: Taste of Being a Loan Shark


"Go to hell!" Liang Junlei spat out these crude words, his body already charging swiftly towards Ye Xiao, swinging his fist with full force at Ye Xiao.

The punch came fast and furious, an ordinary person couldn't possibly dodge it, moreover, Liang Junlei was indeed a fighting master.

Although confident in his skills, Liang Junlei was facing a wager of a hundred billion Northern Federation Coins, so he didn't take it lightly, instead, he gave it his all.

Liang Junlei initially thought, just a touch with Ye Xiao, and Ye Xiao would be done for.

However, one second later, Liang Junlei froze, because Ye Xiao had astutely sensed Liang Junlei's approach, twisted his body, and faced him right before Liang Junlei arrived.

Smack!

Liang Junlei's fist finally made contact with Ye Xiao—but instead of landing as initially anticipated on the back of Ye Xiao's head, it landed squarely in Ye Xiao's palm.

Yes, at that moment Liang Junlei's fist was firmly grasped by Ye Xiao.

Unless Liang Junlei wasn't surprised, it would be bizarre.

Seeing his fist clutched tightly by Ye Xiao's hand, Liang Junlei's face turned aghast, utterly unexpected to him, and within that brief pause.

Ye Xiao's face lit up with a smile he would never forget.

It was gentle yet shrewdly tinged with cunning!

This smile could be said to be unforgettable for Liang Junlei, a memory etched deeply into his being.

Liang Junlei never thought such an unforgettable experience would cost him up to a hundred billion Northern Federation Coins.

"Thank you for your sponsorship!" Ye Xiao suddenly said.

"What?" Liang Junlei responded yet couldn't react in time, watching as Ye Xiao's fist shot towards him, sending the hefty Liang Junlei flying like a kite snapped from its string, moving through the air straight towards the distance.

On its path, many tables and chairs were smashed to pieces, finally, Liang Junlei's body collided with a wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Ye Xiao's move startled many, everyone aware Ye Xiao wasn't ordinary, yet his repeated actions shook them all anew.

Not stopping there, Ye Xiao approached Liang Junlei who was clutching his chest in pain.

Seeing someone approaching in a daze, Liang Junlei looked up, seeing Ye Xiao still grinning at him, he felt like encountering a demon from hell, undoubtedly a demon, at least in his view, no human could possess such strength, feeling indeed as though being struck by a truck.

"You..." Liang Junlei's eyes filled with terror.

Ye Xiao gazed at Liang Junlei, sighed, and said, "Sorry, but if you don't yield, I'll have to keep hitting until you either die or concede, the agreement states if one side dies or concedes, this side or their family must repay a hundred billion Northern Federation Coins in debt."

When signing earlier, Liang Junlei hadn't truly scrutinized the agreement, seeing no binding force upon him, after all, a minute prior, he was still confident, eager to earn a hundred billion for his family.

Now hearing Ye Xiao's words, his face was suddenly filled with shock.

Ye Xiao's words were unmistakably clear, stating regardless of the outcome, even if one died, the hundred billion Northern Federation Coins must be paid by either the individual or their family.

Coincidentally, Liang Junlei was the sole heir of the Liang family, as he was an only child.

Liang Junlei felt his mind buzzing, finally recalling Hai Bo outside urging him to let this go, Qi Xin echoing similar sentiments, even Feng Hai having been hesitant.

All of this finally made sense to Liang Junlei.

From the moment he walked into Black Mood, he had woven a big trap for himself, one into which he earnestly leaped.

"You offended the Liang family, you'll regret it." Liang Junlei barely knew Ye Xiao, still believing, at this moment, the family's threat might save him, prevent losses.

Yet again, Liang Junlei fell into the trap of his own arrogance.

Ye Xiao picked up a glass from a nearby table, crushed it, letting a shard fall into his hand, flashed a smile and said to Liang Junlei, "If you're willing to sacrifice your life, I can tear up the agreement!"

"You're... you're going to kill me?" Liang Junlei's eyes widened in disbelief, unable to fathom the reality, how could anyone try to kill him?

Clearly, events unfolded beyond Liang Junlei's comprehension.

"Want me to stop using weapons then?" Ye Xiao's smile grew even brighter.

Ye Xiao casually tossed away the shard, like a dart, it flew straight into the nearby wall.

Common knowledge suggested wall structures, yet to embed a shard firmly wasn't something ordinary could achieve, yet Ye Xiao managed.

Because Ye Xiao accomplished it, Liang Junlei was dumbfounded.

Boom!

Ye Xiao's fist ruthlessly struck Liang Junlei's abdomen!

Of course, Ye Xiao didn't use any True Qi. Ye Xiao believed that if he did, a single punch would cause Liang Junlei's intestines to spill out.

'Puh'!

Liang Junlei spit out a mixture of water and blood from his mouth, feeling once again as if he'd been struck by an iron hammer, a sensation that made him miserable!

Liang Junlei struggled to lift his head, slowly looking around. He wanted to see what those who normally called him brother were doing.

Finally, Liang Junlei noticed that those people did have some sympathy, at least they were looking over with surprised eyes, but none of them approached, even Feng Hai remained seated, not moving an inch.

"Sorry, if you don't surrender, I'll only have to follow the agreement." Ye Xiao looked helpless, as if everything he was doing now was being forced.

Liang Junlei was hit by Ye Xiao again.

After a series of strikes, Liang Junlei finally couldn't take it anymore.

He didn't want to die!

He still had plenty of youth to squander, many girls waiting to bed him, and of course, lots of weak people to bully. Even if both families suffer losses, at least, he couldn't die.

"I surrender!" Liang Junlei said with difficulty.

Ye Xiao had thrown a total of four punches.

If it were someone else, surely each punch would be heavier than the last, but Ye Xiao made each punch lighter.

He didn't intend to kill Liang Junlei; he simply wanted to fulfill the agreement, or else he'd have to pay a hundred billion Northern Federation Coins.

Seeing Liang Junlei surrender, Ye Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Since you've surrendered, I still have to fulfill the agreement and stop hitting you. Also, when can you give me the hundred billion Northern Federation Coins? You probably don't want me coming to your house every day to collect, right?"

Liang Junlei looked at Ye Xiao, utterly helpless now.

Refuse to give?

That didn't make any sense, especially with his life still in the other person's hands.

"I'll... I'll speak with my family about it and have them get the money to you as soon as possible." Liang Junlei said, looking at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao nodded and said, "Thank you for that."

After saying this, Ye Xiao turned and walked towards the bar.

"Time for you to make a fortune." Ye Xiao smiled as he approached Qi Xin, laughingly said.

"I didn't say I would definitely want it," Qi Xin replied.

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "Whether you want it or not is no longer your choice; the stake was borrowed from you, how could there not be some interest."

"But that seems a bit high, doesn't it? I'm not a loan shark!" Qi Xin replied.

Ye Xiao said, "Then you can taste what it's like to be a loan shark."

Qi Xin sighed, then looked at Liang Junlei who was still leaning against the corner. He realized that from now on, the Liang family was finished, the industry built by Liang Junlei's father through years of hard work was almost lost due to Liang Junlei's reckless behavior.

Only then did the other people in Black Mood react, looking sympathetically at Liang Junlei.

Feng Hai looked at Liang Junlei; he had indeed hesitated just now, as he did not want to see Liang Junlei immediately clash with Ye Xiao, but Liang Junlei was too confident in himself.

Hence, Feng Hai gave Wu Pinliang a look.

Wu Pinliang nodded slightly, then walked directly to where Liang Junlei was and carefully helped him up.

As for Ye Xiao, he couldn't care less about Liang Junlei's life or death now; after all, Liang Junlei had surrendered, proving that he wouldn't default!

He wasn't worried about the agreement being defaulted on by Liang Junlei. Firstly, it was a voluntarily signed agreement, and secondly, the agreement clearly noted it was debt!

"Hey, beautiful, feel like going shopping?" Ye Xiao walked to the bar, leaned against it, and said to Jiang Miaoke with a grin.

Jiang Miaoke had merely glanced briefly at Liang Junlei earlier; she never had any sympathy for someone like him, not because she lacked empathy, but because she had witnessed Liang Junlei bullying too many ordinary people.

Now, Jiang Miaoke looked at Ye Xiao, smiling slightly and said, "I don't exactly have a share in the interest."

"None!" Ye Xiao said seriously.

Jiang Miaoke immediately frowned slightly.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "But the principal is all yours."
