The big man became angrier upon hearing the fortune teller mocking in hushed whispers.
"You sneaky old man, not only did you swindle my money, but you also got me into a good fight. If I don't beat you to a pulp today, I'll not be doing justice to you."
With this, he raised his fists and charged forward.
The fortune teller quickly appealed to Chen Kai.
"I know you're skilled. Even if you can't beat this man in front of us, I'm sure you can hold him off for a while. Besides, I know you can easily fight him off. I don't want you to hurt him. All I need is your help, or else he might beat me to death."
Chen Kai looked at him awkwardly, not really wanting to help. After all, it was none of his business. Moreover, Chen Kai had now recognized that the fortune teller was nothing more than a scammer.
The things he had said about him earlier must have been told by someone else. If he had been half-doubtful before, now he was alone without any doubt.
