Chapter 76 - The Death Battle!



Chapter 76 The Death Battle!

They walked out of the hospital and walked toward the parking lot. Xiao Bing asked, “Do you mean the North Heaven Queen sent her?”

“Yes,” Yezi said seriously. “They don’t need to take your life. They just have to hurt you enough that you can’t unleash your full strength during the battle. That way, they will win. They can let the blind man kill you in the battle!”

They got into the car. The bodyguards were divided into two groups, with three entering the car with Yezi. The rest entered another car and drove ahead.

Xiao Bing said with a smile, “That’s the likeliest possibility. It seems that the blind man is very important to her. Otherwise, she couldn’t have used this despicable method in private. This would damage her reputation.”

Yezi said, “The most important thing now isn’t considering these things, but what you will do that day. Brother Bing, you also heard from the doctor that your right arm can’t work hard during this period of time. You should turn down the battle three days later.”

“What do I say?” Xiao Bing asked with a smile. “That I was being schemed against tonight and therefore can’t fight? I’m not afraid to be the laughing stock of Jiang City’s underground world. I’m not in gangs anyway. But it would mean that I’m giving up. How can I find trouble with the North Heaven Queen in the future?”

Yezi sighed. “Most people can’t run quickly enough from a situation like this and yet you insist on fighting the North Heaven Queen.”

“People always have to pay a price after doing something wrong…”

Ye Zi was worried. “I’m afraid you’re too stubborn and it’s you who will pay the price in the end. Is it worth risking your life for two unrelated people?”

Xiao Bing looked at Yezi with confidence and smiled. “I have never lost in my whole life since young.”

Yezi took a deep breath. She laid in Xiao Bing’s arms and slightly sighed. “I can’t persuade you.”

“Silly girl.”

“That night, I will also be there… I want to see you win. I want to see you live and walk down the arena. You brought me freedom, taught me love, and I gave you my loyalty.” Yezi smiled sweetly. “No big deal. If something really happens to you, I will go down to accompany you…”

Xiao Bing hugged Yezi tighter.

He sent Yezi home first before returning to his home. He crept back into his room. Su Xiaoxiao knew that he went to Yezi’s home tonight, so she went to bed when it got late. She also didn’t want to act like a housekeeper waiting to ask Xiao Bing where he was. After all, she knew who Xiao Bing’s girlfriend really was. The reason she would supervise Xiao Bing like a housekeeper was to threaten him by complaining to Yezi.

The next day, Xiao Bing went to the relevant department. He was kept busy for the entire day purchasing the store Zhu Liya had bought from the government department. Then, he officially gave all the employees a vacation. With the help of a still hospitalized Li Chunlan’s help, he found a reliable renovation team. He was planning to open up the two stores and begin the renovations.

Dumbass couldn’t continue staying in the store while it was renovating but it wasn’t convenient for Xiao Bing to take him to Ye family either. So he rented a one-bedroom apartment for Dumbass with his own money and let him live in it. Since the beginning of the renovation, Dumbass took on another job: learning martial arts.

Dumbass was fairly strong. He was invincible in the Clear Strength stage. He was the iron King Kong. Unless he met a master in the Concealing Strength stage, he wouldn’t be hurt even without defending himself.

But now was a crisis period. After arriving in Jiang City, Xiao Bing had successively offended several opponents. Moreover, Su Peiya’s death remained a mystery. He had no one to help him except for Lil Bei who was secretly protecting Su Xiaoxiao. Even if he was strong, he was only one person after all. He also took a fancy to Dumbass’s simple and honest character as well as his potential in martial arts. So he had a vested interest in helping Dumbass to improve his strength.

After calling Dumbass into the suburban forest, Xiao Bing pointed to a huge stone nearby and asked with a smile, “Dumbass, what is this?”

Dumbass widened his eyes and said with some displeasure, “Brother Bing, I’m not stupid. This kind of stone can be found everywhere in my hometown.”

Xiao Bing asked, “Can you smash it into pieces?”

Dumbass encircled the stone and looked carefully. The stone was very large, almost bigger than him. He knocked on it with his hands and found it very strong. “It may take some effort.”

Xiao Bing walked forward with mirth and lightly tapped the boulder with his hands lightly. Dumbass grinned. “Brother Bing, you’re really stupid. What can you do with such a hard stone with such a light clap? Do you think it’s tofu?”

Suddenly, a rumbling sound came from inside the boulder and startled Dumbass. Then his eyes turned as round as a pair of cow’s eyes. His eyes widened so much that his eyeballs threatened to fall out. He watched as the perfectly fine boulder suddenly breaking apart and bursting directly from the middle.

“I… I… I certainly didn’t sleep well. Either that or I’ve gone blind.”

Xiao Bing laughed. “If you’re blind, can you still see these?”

He looked at Dumbasswith a grin. “Do you want to learn how to do this?”

Dumbass asked, somewhat befuddled, “What? What did you say?”

“I’m asking if you want to learn martial arts from me?”

“Can… Can I smash such a big stone like you?”

Xiao Bing raised an eyebrow. “Of course.”

“Are you taking me in as your disciple?”

Xiao Bing laughed. “We are friends. But I can teach you martial arts.”

“I… I want to learn… Brother Bing, you’re so kind. I want to learn martial arts from you.”

Xiao Bing said, “I can only teach the wise, not the stupid.”

“I am not a fool!”

Dumbass wasn’t lying. After teaching him, Xiao Bing realized how talented he was in learning martial arts. However, the principle between Concealing Strength and Clear Strength stages were very different. It was not a matter of a day or two for even the best talent. Xiao Bing predicted that Dumbass could somehow step into the initial state of the Concealing Strength stage in another half a month.

Xiao Bing felt more relief with a master of concealing stage around. He let Dumbass go on practicing alone. Xiao Bing came to the hospital to talk with Li Chunlan and told her about the progress of the noodle house. Li Chunlan had been very happy and beaming since the expansion. This noodle house was her lifetime dream. She didn’t think that although she was ill, it was carried forward in other people’s hands. Moreover, the way she saw it, Xiao Bing was likely not an outsider…

For three days, Xiao Bing’s right hand was practically useless. He was expected to let his whole arm rest for a few days but time was running out. Soon, the day of the death battle finally arrived.

Xiao Bing didn’t tell Su Xiaoxiao about the death battle because she didn’t have the need to. Tonight, many people arrived at the city’s north underground arena. Nearly half of the VIPs of the underground world of Jiang City were here. The real master here was the North Heaven Queen Peony Fairy and the master of the underground world in Jiang City was Master Hou.

Master Hou, members of the Ye Family, the North Heaven Queen, and the others occupied a high platform. Behind Master Hou was a cold-looking and tall man. Behind the Peony Fairy stood a squat man as well as a young girl in her early twenties in green clothes. Beside Ye Bancheng were Ye Xinyi, Ye Tianming, along with several bodyguards.

Besides Master Hou, the Ye Family and the Northern Heaven Queen, there was a man with a face mask and dressed in a Peking Opera costume sitting there. No one could clearly see what he looked like because of the mask that he was wearing. The only visible thing was a pair of uncomfortable, feminine-looking eyes.

The Peony Fairy said with some disgust, “Paint-face, can you not stop putting on such a feminine and eccentric appearance? Every time I notice your eyes, I feel like there’s a thorn on my back.”

The masked man smiled. When he was smiling, he actually gave people the same feeling as an opera singer. Particularly, he would hold up his little finger while talking. “Peony Fairy… Our four Heaven Kings are an alliance. Look… I’m the only one here today for such a big event. Shouldn’t you be thanking me instead?”

Master Hou was still so gentle and kind. His eyes were calm and he glanced at Peony Fairy and Paint-face that flanked him. With a smile, he said, “Paint-face, don’t sow discord. The four Heaven Kings are an alliance. The other two Kings have other commitments today. With the both of you, the North Heaven Queen and East Heaven King in attendance, it’s already lively enough.”

Master Hou looked at Ye Bancheng and chuckled. “Who do you hope will win today, Mr. Ye?”

Ye Bancheng betrayed no emotion on his face. He smiled faintly and said, “I’m here today to see the excitement. Peony Fairy is a person I have heard of for a long time while Xiao Bing is my junior. Naturally, I want to be impartial. It’s just that sometimes some misunderstandings are best solved through better methods. Why push it so far by doing a life-and-death battle fight?”

The Peony Fairy flashed a perfunctory smile. “I’m afraid you don’t know much about it. This is a decisive life-and-death battle. There’s no taking it back once it has been announced. The most taboo thing for those in the gangs is to break promises.

Ye Bancheng frowned and said nothing else. But Ye Xinyi, who was sitting next to him, was excited. She couldn’t help looking forward to the battle, thinking that the man could be killed during this challenge.

At this moment, Zhu Mingyu was already standing on the arena. Paint-face smiled and asked, “Why isn’t that man here yet? Did he get cold feet?”

Ye Xinyi smiled at Paint-face. “You don’t know him. Xiao Bing has a tough character. I don’t think that he knows what the word ‘afraid’ means.”

Paint-face glanced at her before looking at the arena again. His gaze become a little strange.

“Here he is.”

It wasn’t sure who said that. The audience watched as Xiao Bing and Yezi strode in from the gate hand-in-hand. The whole arena became heated with excitement!
