Chapter 196
“Let me introduce myself, I am Huang Xiaolong from Black Wind Mountain. I am your destined fate…” Before Huang Xiaolong could finish his sentence, he was directly slapped by Jiang Che!
Jiang Che’s slap was without any restraint. Caught off guard, Huang Xiaolong was sent flying, landing several meters away, creating a human-shaped crater on the ground.
“What are you doing!” Huang Xiaolong climbed out of the pit, dusted off his clothes, and looked at Jiang Che with a dark expression, furious inside.
This bastard attacked without warning, thinking he was an easy target! Moreover, Huang Xiaolong didn’t remember provoking him. No wonder he felt an inexplicable disgust towards this guy outside the temple earlier; this bastard was indeed no good!
Huang Xiaolong clenched his fists tightly, glaring at Jiang Che with eyes full of undisguised killing intent.
Ever since he inherited the legacy of the ancient Qi Practitioner, he had never been so humiliated. The flames of anger burned within him, making his presence incredibly terrifying.
People around noticed the commotion and stopped to watch, pointing and whispering about Jiang Che and the others.
“This young man can send someone flying with one slap. He must be a martial artist!”
“Why do you think this young man hit someone in public?” A middle-aged lady looked at the sullen Huang Xiaolong and asked curiously.
“I saw this man trying to harass the young girl, and then he was slapped by her boyfriend.” An elderly man with a white beard stroked his goatee and said seriously.
He had witnessed the entire incident and knew what happened.
“Scum!”
“What a shameless old bastard! How can our country still have such bad people!”
Hearing the old man’s words, the crowd immediately pointed at Huang Xiaolong, their faces full of disdain.
“Why did you hit me!” Listening to the crowd’s continuous discussion, Huang Xiaolong was almost driven mad. He looked at Jiang Che angrily and growled.
Damn it, these blind fools are really slandering me!
How did I harass Jiang Yun’er? I barely said a few words before Jiang Che sent me flying! He now suspected these people were actors hired by Jiang Che in advance.
“Why did I hit you? Because you’re blind, kid, so I slapped you.” Jiang Che looked at Huang Xiaolong mockingly, his eyes full of disdain.
“Today, I’ll teach you on behalf of your father what it means to respect others!” Jiang Che said, stepping forward to Huang Xiaolong and slapping his face repeatedly.
Jiang Che knew this was a public place, so he didn’t use internal energy, which would be too shocking.
He just used his internal energy to temporarily block Huang Xiaolong’s cultivation, preventing him from escaping.
Huang Xiaolong tried to use his internal energy to escape Jiang Che’s grasp, but he was bewildered when he found he couldn’t use his energy.
Damn it, where’s my internal energy? Why can’t I use it?
So, Huang Xiaolong could only passively accept Jiang Che’s slaps, whimpering something unintelligible.
People around looked at Huang Xiaolong’s swollen pig-like face and couldn’t bear to watch, some even left, afraid Jiang Che might involve them.
No one stood up to criticize Jiang Che because, after hearing the old man’s words, they instinctively believed Huang Xiaolong was in the wrong.
“Ding, the host publicly beat Huang Xiaolong, not giving him a chance to rebut, changing the plot, rewarded with 2000 villain points.”
“Ding, Huang Xiaolong’s luck -2000, rewarded host with 4000 villain points.”
…
Finally, Deng Wenchang couldn’t bear to see Huang Xiaolong’s miserable state anymore and stepped forward, pleading for Huang Xiaolong.
“Young Master Jiang, please be magnanimous and let him go. After all, he is young and might not understand, offending you.” Deng Wenchang pleaded, looking sympathetically at Huang Xiaolong. After all, Huang Xiaolong was his savior, and he should step up to help.
But this fool really picked the wrong person to provoke, daring to offend Jiang Che. Now, if Huang Xiaolong disappeared tonight, he wouldn’t be surprised.
Offending someone like Jiang Che could only result in a fate of being fed to the fish.
Hearing Deng Wenchang’s words, the already humiliated Huang Xiaolong was almost about to vomit blood.
You old bastard, if you can’t speak, don’t speak. What do you mean by letting him go like a fart? You’re the fart, your whole family are farts!
“You’re right, this guy is just an ant, not worth my anger.” Jiang Che said with a smile, giving Huang Xiaolong one last slap, knocking him out.
Jiang Che then threw Huang Xiaolong to the ground like a dead dog, clapping his hands with a disdainful look.
“What is your relationship with him?” Turning to Deng Wenchang, Jiang Che asked coldly, looking like he was still angry and would chop him up and feed him to the fish if he didn’t get a reasonable explanation.
“He… he’s my benefactor. He cured my terminal illness.” Feeling Jiang Che’s cold and contemptuous gaze, Deng Wenchang trembled, answering shakily.
“Your benefactor? So he acted arrogantly because of your relationship?” Jiang Che sneered, pressing his advantage.
Since he was here, he wouldn’t leave empty-handed. Today, he would take something from Deng Wenchang as compensation! That Junyue Hotel of his looked quite nice!
Though its annual net profit might only be tens of millions, it was still a famous five-star hotel in Linjiang City.
“Not… not like that… Young Master Jiang, you misunderstood. I never had such thoughts…” Deng Wenchang quickly shook his head, sweating profusely, looking extremely nervous.
He was cursing inside, why did Huang Xiaolong have to provoke Jiang Che? Now, not only did Huang Xiaolong get beaten, but he even got dragged into this mess.
Deng Wenchang was deeply regretful. He shouldn’t have brought Huang Xiaolong to repay the favor today, or none of this would have happened.
Now, not only did he not repay the favor, but he also got himself into big trouble!
“What do you think? Don’t you think you owe me a reasonable explanation?” Jiang Che still showed no kindness, his expression dark, seemingly on the verge of exploding.
“I…” Deng Wenchang was almost in tears. How was he supposed to explain?
Huang Xiaolong’s reckless words caused this mess, and now he had to take the blame!
“To express my apology to you, Young Master Jiang, I am willing to give you a bar in the south of the city as compensation.” Deng Wenchang said, looking as if he had made a huge sacrifice.
Saying this made his heart bleed. He was worth only a few tens of millions, relying on two five-star hotels and a bar to live.
“A bar? Who do you think you’re dealing with! Hand over your Junyue Hotel, and I’ll let this matter slide.”
“This…” Hearing Jiang Che’s demand, Deng Wenchang was stunned. He didn’t expect such a large request. Junyue Hotel was his life’s work; how could he give it to Jiang Che?
“What, you don’t agree?” Jiang Che frowned, glaring coldly at Deng Wenchang.
Just one look made Deng Wenchang feel like needles were pricking his back, his hair standing on end.
From Jiang Che’s eyes, Deng Wenchang sensed a thick killing intent, as if he would kill him if he didn’t agree.
“I agree…” Deng Wenchang swallowed hard, saying fearfully, his face trembling.
“Smart move, get lost with him! I expect to see the stock transfer agreement today.”
Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Deng Wenchang felt relieved, quickly getting someone to carry Huang Xiaolong away, leaving in a sorry state.
