Ye Xiao actually really didn't want to fight anymore, because he could feel that the person in his arms was breathing very rapidly right now, which was obviously not a good sign. Moreover, since he had just had a lot of alcohol, and he was still holding her, this wasn't conducive to the evaporation of the alcohol.
"Sixth Master Wu, let's fight another day, shall I come over again another time?" Ye Xiao looked at Sixth Master Wu.
Sixth Master Wu looked at Ye Xiao and saw the difficulty in his face, then glanced at the beauty in Ye Xiao's arms and guessed that it must be because of this woman. Yet, if he let Ye Xiao go, where would Sixth Master Wu's face be?
While Sixth Master Wu was lost in thought, suddenly, one of his underlings pointing at Ye Xiao cursed, "Fuck, scared now? Our Sixth Master Wu can pinch you to death with just one finger. Weren't you so damn cocky just now?"
Although Sixth Master Wu felt a bit irritated hearing his underling's words, once they spoke, even if he wanted to let Ye Xiao and his group go, he found it difficult to do so.
"Young man, I'll let you go today, and the brothers underneath me would definitely think that I'm afraid of you. I can't bear such a charge," Sixth Master Wu said with a smile, looking at Ye Xiao.
Hearing the words of the Hong Company underling, Ye Xiao knew that Sixth Master Wu had no choice, so he no longer hoped that they could avoid fighting today.
"Come on!" Ye Xiao said, holding the beauty, while looking at Sixth Master Wu.
Everyone had been wondering where Ye Xiao would place the beauty if they started fighting, but Ye Xiao had uttered just these two words.
Suddenly, everyone was puzzled. Did Ye Xiao really intend to hold onto the beauty while fighting Sixth Master Wu? Wasn't that a bit disrespectful? Or perhaps he was incredibly cocky?
Sixth Master Wu looked at Ye Xiao, and his expression had a hint of chill.
It's one thing to fight, but what Sixth Master Wu hated most was being taken lightly.
"Young man, you're not going to put down that woman?" Sixth Master Wu asked Ye Xiao coldly.
Ye Xiao said, "This beauty is mine."
"Fine, then let's do this," Sixth Master Wu said, standing in place with hands behind his back, coldly smirking at Ye Xiao.
Clearly, Sixth Master Wu was waiting for Ye Xiao to charge at him, because in the past, it was always others who charged at him. After all, he was the strong one.
But...
Ye Xiao glanced at Sixth Master Wu and suddenly said, "Sixth Master Wu, why are you just standing there? I'm over here, aren't you coming to fight me? Holding onto someone, my movements are inconvenient, so hurry up because I don't have much time."
What?
This time, not just the bystanders were surprised, but Sixth Master Wu himself was especially astonished. Was Ye Xiao acting cocky, or was he insane? Sixth Master Wu graciously offered him a one-on-one battle, which was an immense honor already, and yet he was not appreciative.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Sixth Master Wu asked coldly.
Ye Xiao looked at Sixth Master Wu and, as if he hadn't seen Sixth Master Wu's displeased expression, casually said, "If you're not coming to hit me, that means you're admitting defeat. Since you're conceding, I'm leaving."
After finishing, Ye Xiao turned to walk away, but he was blocked by the Hong Company underlings.
"Fine, don't regret it!" Sixth Master Wu said while already walking towards where Ye Xiao stood. At that moment, almost everyone could feel the murderous aura emanating from Sixth Master Wu, a unique quality that only came from living a life accustomed to licking blood off the edge of a knife.
Ye Xiao, watching Sixth Master Wu charging at him, still had a calm face.
When Sixth Master Wu neared Ye Xiao, his speed suddenly increased, and without any forewarning, he threw a punch straight at Ye Xiao's face, aiming to blind his eyes!
Ye Xiao was secretly astonished; if Sixth Master Wu were dealing with an ordinary person, it would have been tough for anyone to last a minute under his hands. This speed, this power, was truly one in ten thousand. Even martial arts champions would be nothing more than showpieces in front of Sixth Master Wu.
Everyone had thought that Ye Xiao would be crippled by Sixth Master Wu in an instant, or if not crippled, then left with only half a life. This was everyone's trust and confidence in Sixth Master Wu.
But...
As Sixth Master Wu's fist, swift as lightning, was thrown at Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao didn't avoid it at all and a smile appeared on his face.
Sixth Master Wu saw the smile on Ye Xiao's face and was puzzled; he couldn't figure out why Ye Xiao could still smile at this moment.
But what happened next was something that nobody, including Sixth Master Wu, could have anticipated!
Ye Xiao slightly smiled, his footsteps agile, and then his left foot, as if teleporting, kicked Sixth Master Wu's body. Sixth Master Wu's fist was less than 1 centimeter away from Ye Xiao's eyes; Ye Xiao even felt the edge of Sixth Master Wu's fist, yet for Sixth Master Wu, that one centimeter might as well have been the difference between heaven and earth.
Sixth Master Wu's body, like a kite with its string cut, flew more than ten meters away, smashing through three glass tables before coming to a stop. Even though Sixth Master Wu was a trained fighter, just that one kick had been enough to keep him from standing up again, his bones feeling as if they were falling apart, able to sense that at least three of his ribs were broken.
"Huh?" The youngsters from Hong Company and the onlookers were all stunned. Hardly anyone could react. They were expecting Ye Xiao to fall, but to their utter surprise, it was Sixth Master Wu who went down, and not only that, but he went down in such a tragic state. Not to mention anything else, just the three shattered glass tables were enough to testify to what sort of pain Sixth Master Wu was in at the moment.
"Waste him!" a junior member of the Hong Company shouted at Ye Xiao.
Almost instantly, nearly all of the Hong Company juniors rushed towards Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao knew that, at this point, it looked like he had to fight his way out today.
But just then, a voice rang out, stopping everyone in their tracks.
"Let him go!" Sixth Master Wu said.
The Hong Company juniors were astounded to hear Sixth Master Wu's words and exclaimed, "What? Why let her go? Sixth Master, he did to you..."
Sixth Master Wu could not help coughing several times and said, "I have an agreement with him. Do you want me to be known as someone without honor?"
Immediately, the Hong Company juniors fell silent, and everyone looked at Sixth Master Wu in amazement. Who could have suspected a gang leader would actually understand the meaning of honor? Even Ye Xiao was somewhat surprised. He had assumed that Sixth Master Wu would be furious and order his men to fight to the death.
Ye Xiao looked at Sixth Master Wu with a serious expression, "Mr. Wu, I will definitely visit to apologize another day. But now, I must leave."
Without waiting for Sixth Master Wu to respond, Ye Xiao immediately picked up the beauty in his arms and left.
Since Sixth Master Wu had given the order, the Hong Company juniors dared not stop him.
However, after Ye Xiao had left, Sixth Master Wu coughed twice more, his eyes rolled back, and he passed out.
"Ah? Quickly, to the hospital!"
Chaos erupted in the Happy People Bar.
Meanwhile, Niu Chuang, who had accompanied Ye Xiao, saw the pandemonium. Many people were rushing out of the bar. Realizing Ye Xiao had gone and he might have to foot the bill, Niu Chuang decided to make a strategic retreat and escaped from the Happy People Bar!
After leaving the Happy People Bar, Ye Xiao saw that the four people whose legs had been broken were still being beaten. He felt a bit helpless, thinking this was karma at work.
He then headed directly to the apartment he had just rented, understanding that the woman needed proper rest.
Ye Xiao didn't consider himself a particularly kind person. In his view, few of the women in bars were decent, and like any other onlooker, he would usually just watch and not get involved unless necessary.
After all, it wasn't his problem.
But today was different; Ye Xiao felt compelled to intervene, not only because her beauty was akin to that of a Heavenly Immortal, which deeply moved his heart, but also because of Ling Shuya, he had to act.
This beauty was none other than Ling Shuya's "Cousin Sitong," Li Sitong.
When Ye Xiao had first spotted Li Sitong, he was also taken aback, never expecting to find her here. Seeing Li Sitong in danger, he felt bound to risk everything to help.
At the moment, Li Sitong might be feeling uneasy due to the recent motion, frowning with discomfort. To Ye Xiao, it seemed she had simply had too much to drink, so he thought the best thing would be to let Li Sitong sleep it off, hoping for nothing more than a hangover in the morning.
"Brother Xiao, Brother Xiao!"
Ye Xiao was walking when he heard this call from behind and looked back in confusion.
There was Niu Chuang, red-faced and running over.
Ye Xiao looked at Niu Chuang, reddened from drinking too much but surprisingly, not passed out, which showed that Niu Chuang's capacity for alcohol was quite extraordinary.
"Brother Niu, what do you mean by that?" Ye Xiao still wasn't quite used to Niu Chuang addressing him as 'Brother Xiao'.
Niu Chuang hurriedly said, "Brother Xiao, don't call me Brother Niu anymore. I always felt you were no ordinary person, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful. From now on, I'll be counting on your protection."
"Brother Niu, you jest. What can I do? It's just a little skill in boxing and kicking, but we live in a civilized society, and such things are useless now."
"Haha, Brother Xiao, no matter what you say, I'm sticking with you. Oh yes, Brother Xiao, you're lucky today, having this beauty, even if you died immediately it would have been worth it," Niu Chuang said with a shameless grin.
Ye Xiao was at a loss for words upon hearing Niu Chuang's assumption that he intended to take advantage of the woman.
"Haha, Brother Niu, you're thinking too much. She and I are truly just friends!" Ye Xiao looked at Li Sitong, smiling and saying so to Niu Chuang.
Niu Chuang obviously didn't believe such a claim, but since Ye Xiao put it that way, he didn't argue, just hee-hee and continued to look at Ye Xiao with a smirk.
