Chapter 667: Chaotic Battle
"Give it a try," the man suggested again, applying a mix of coercion and cajoling.
Despite Liu Yiyi's extreme reluctance, the man went ahead and prepared a small pinch of white powder for her and lit it with a match.
Liu Yiyi tried to dodge, but the men behind her blocked her retreat, forcing her to take the drugs.
Bang...
Suddenly, a figure flashed past, and the man holding a pinch of white powder was sent flying.
"Ouch..." the man screamed in pain.
"Fuck!" Many onlookers stared at the approaching Xiao Han and angrily asked, "Who the hell are you?"
Xiao Han glanced at them and said, "I'm your worst nightmare!"
"Fuck!" The guy was stunned. In the Dark Night Bar, it was unheard of for someone to talk to him with such arrogance, leaving him momentarily perplexed. Before figuring out who Xiao Han was, he didn't dare to act rashly. Gradually rising from the sofa, he stared coldly at Xiao Han, "Kid, do you know who I am?"
"I don't care who you are!" Xiao Han retorted dismissively, then added, "Even if you were the Heavenly King, I wouldn't be afraid of you!"
"You..." the man frowned, sensing that Xiao Han might be someone significant. He asked coldly, "Who are you really?"
"I've already told you, I'm your worst nightmare!" Xiao Han replied with a cold laugh.
Haha...
The crowd burst into laughter, evidently enjoying the spectacle.
"Young Master Huang, someone dares to stand up to you!"
"Yeah, beat him down, or we'll lose respect for you!"
People in the crowd were loudly goading. They appeared very excited and lively.
Seeing himself being mocked by a crowd, Young Master Huang couldn't take it anymore.
Young Master Huang, whose real name was Huang Shigui, had parents who were well-known business magnates. With considerable wealth at his disposal, he often goofed around and used money to make friends with some shady characters. These friends usually listened to him and could create quite a stir. Among them were some from gangs like Dao Meng and other local thugs. They obeyed Huang because he was willing to finance their needs, and that was it.
Xiao Han smiled and then asked, "What now?"
"Guys, take care of him," Huang Shigui ordered furiously, having never encountered anyone bold enough to challenge him like this. He couldn't swallow his pride.
"Alright!" A blonde-haired lad chuckled and said, "Young Master Huang's word is law to us. Bro's, let's teach this kid a lesson, give Young Master Huang some face!"
"Go!" More than ten people immediately stepped forward.
"Xiao Han, we should run!" Liu Yiyi quickly suggested.
"That won't do," Xiao Han shook his head and said, "If we run now, how will others view me later?"
"They are too many, you can't beat them," Liu Yiyi exclaimed in fear.
What's worse, these men had somehow acquired weapons, some brandishing iron sticks, others clutching iron chains, and some wielding machetes. The situation was indeed terrifying, no wonder Liu Yiyi was genuinely frightened.
Xiao Mei and Bingyu, on the other hand, were calmly watching from the sideline.
For them, this scene seemed somewhat familiar. Both having mixed in tougher circles since graduating high school, they had seen far more than Liu Yiyi. They might have been her classmates, but they were more experienced in the ways of the world.
"Xiao Mei, what do we do?" Bingyu asked, slightly nervous as the situation escalated.
"No worries," Xiao Mei shook her head and said, "At most it'll be a fight, it won't kill anyone. We'll just watch, no need to get involved!"
Xiao Mei knew that people from the streets wouldn't bully a woman; at most, they'd take some liberties with her, a touch here, a pinch there. It wouldn't cost them any flesh, nor would they lose anything, so Xiao Mei wasn't afraid at all. Little did she know, once they took the drugs offered by these men, they would forever become their slaves.
.................
The scene was somewhat chaotic.
In this corner, Xiao Han was surrounded by more than ten people. Huang Shigui stood to the side, watching him coldly.
"Young Master Huang, this kid is nothing much," a man spoke up. "He's just a student from Shuimu University, not someone to worry about!"
"A student?" Xiao Han was momentarily stunned.
"That's right!" the man nodded, "Seems like he is just a sports savvy student from Shuimu University. Nothing else to him, nothing to fear."
As soon as Huang Shigui heard that Xiao Han was a student from Shuimu University, he relaxed. He had thought Xiao Han's arrogant demeanor was backed by significant support, but it turned out this kid was just bluffing. Initially, he thought Xiao Han was a major player, but now, it seemed he was just another nobody.
"Beat him!" Huang Shigui roared.
Whirring...
More than ten people immediately swarmed him.
Xiao Han narrowed his eyes. Ever since he had entered the Soul Bead, Xiao Han had discovered that his strength had become immensely powerful, and the group in front of him was no match for him at all. Xiao Han let out a cold laugh.
A flash of light passed by.
An iron stick mysteriously appeared in Xiao Han's hand.
Without a sound, Xiao Han summoned the Ruyi Stick and, holding it tightly, furiously struck at the opponents.
Bang...
The first guy to rush up was sent flying by Xiao Han like a baseball. The man heavily fell and quickly disappeared under a table. The people behind him rushed forward without heed of the lesson the first person had received.
"Seeking death!" Xiao Han snorted coldly.
The people behind continued unabated.
Bang, bang...
Xiao Han showed no mercy as he swung the Ruyi Stick violently, downing several opponents one after another, like bowling pins tumbling haphazardly, all falling down. Seeing that over ten people were all down, Huang Shigui's face turned pale with fear.
The person who had just spoken had already disappeared; Huang Shigui looked around, eager to ask the man: Wasn't Xiao Han just a student? How come his strength is so formidable that he single-handedly defeated more than ten men? Is this just a student?
Unfortunately, Huang Shigui could not find him at all.
"Wow, Brother Han, you're so incredible!" Xiao Mei stared in shock. Suddenly realizing what happened, she clapped excitedly and jumped around, her chest nearly bursting out.
"So impressive." Bingyu also was stunned.
Only Liu Yiyi remained unusually calm because she knew Xiao Han was powerful, but she hadn't expected Xiao Han to have improved his strength once again. It was truly shocking.
"Xiao Han, keep going!" Liu Yiyi said excitedly.
"Hehe..." Xiao Han chuckled.
Xiao Han slowly walked toward Huang Shigui. Huang Shigui shivered, trying hard to stay calm. He knew his family had connections, so he wasn't afraid of someone like Xiao Han. He looked at Xiao Han coldly and then said, "Xiao Han, don't mess around, I'm telling you, I... I'm not someone you can afford to offend!"
"Is that so?" Xiao Han glanced at him and asked, "Tell me, how formidable are you?"
"Damn!" Upon hearing this, Huang Shigui cursed, "Anyway, you can't afford to offend me!"
Bang!
Xiao Han put away the Ruyi Stick and swung his fist hard.
The punch landed harshly on Huang Shigui's cheek, instantly throwing him to the ground. A trickle of blood ran from the corner of his mouth. Holding his face, he looked at Xiao Han in shock and said, "You... you dared to hit me..."
"What about it?" Xiao Han coldly laughed and said, "Hitting you is the least of it."
"You..." Huang Shigui glared at Xiao Han.
"You dare to lure others into drug abuse; you deserve to die a thousand deaths!" Xiao Han cursed, "Even if I killed you today, it wouldn't be too much!"
"You!" Huang Shigui almost exploded with anger.
"Humph!" Xiao Han snorted coldly and said, "Let's leave it at that today. If there's a next time, I definitely won't spare you!"
"You!" This was the greatest humiliation Huang Shigui had ever experienced, and he definitely wouldn't spare Xiao Han. He secretly noted this down in his heart and coldly said, "Fine, fine, I'll remember you!"
"My name is Xiao Han, from Shuimu University's Finance Department, Finance Class 1. Come and find me if you dare!" Xiao Han took Liu Yiyi's hand and walked out of the bar with her.
After what had happened, Liu Yiyi and the others naturally did not want to stay in the bar any longer.
As they left the bar, Liu Yiyi pursed her lips and said, "Xiao Han, I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing?" Xiao Han asked.
"I..." Liu Yiyi's face flushed as she said, "I shouldn't have come to the bar, I... If not for me, this wouldn't have happened."
"It's good that you understand!" Xiao Han replied and then said, "This is not a place for you. It's a den of vice. Today you met someone forcing you to take drugs; tomorrow, it could be someone harassing you. Not many who come to bars are good people, only a few like you are innocent. Did you know how many had evil glances at you when you first walked in?"
"I..." Liu Yiyi hung her head.
"If it weren't for me, they would have come up to you already!" Xiao Han sighed and said, "Don't ever go to these places again, understand?"
"Yes!" Liu Yiyi nodded.
"Brother Han, we won't go anymore!" Xiao Mei spoke up.
"Don't go again." Xiao Han said.
At that moment, Xiao Mei excitedly hooked her arm through Xiao Han's, her bursting chest pressing against his arm, and she excitedly said, "Brother Han, how are you so amazing? You beat them up so badly… you're truly my idol."
