Liu Wen, having mingled in the World for many years, didn't retreat when Li Fei charged at him. Instead, his eyes shone with a fierce light as he raised the iron rod in his hand and slammed it towards Li Fei with all his might!
He was nicknamed 'Blind Bear', not only because he was blind in one eye but also because of his large build and bear-like strength.
Whoo—
The iron rod came with the sound of wind, and Li Fei raised his arm to block.
"Seeking death!"
Liu Wen had too much experience with such moves and was confident that this strike would break his opponent's arm!
However, when the iron rod heavily landed on Li Fei's right arm, Liu Wen didn't feel the usual sensation. Instead, it felt like he had hit a tire full of air, and the iron rod bounced off.
"Ah—"
The next second, Liu Wen screamed in pain, suddenly bent over, and fell to the ground, his face turning pale.
It was because Li Fei, while raising his hand to block, had simultaneously kicked Liu Wen's groin!
He didn't hold back on this kick and clearly felt something break.
This man might say goodbye to being a man for the rest of his life.
With the leader dealt with in one move, Li Fei's tense heart finally eased somewhat.
Whether in his past life or this one, he had never encountered such a situation; being nervous was inevitable.
"Fortunately, I was cautious enough."
Li Fei felt secretly relieved.
Ever since he had dined once with Lu Changwu and others, he had carried two packets of lime powder every day, specifically to guard against the Tiger Saber Gang!
Although he hadn't had a direct conflict with the Tiger Saber Gang, it was essential to be wary, especially of a ruthless gang like them that stops at nothing. He couldn't afford to take them lightly.
Lime powder was easy to obtain and light, making it convenient and effective for self-defense!
Having dealt with Liu Wen, Li Fei could have run away, but after calming his nerves, he suddenly didn't feel like running.
For one, these people seemed like minor gang goons with average strength, perfect for gaining real combat experience.
Secondly, having just obtained the 'Blood Rage' Soul Skill, he could use these fellows for practice.
Thirdly, he was in need of money, and these people might just have some.
In the blink of an eye, these thoughts crossed his mind. Li Fei turned around, bent down to pick up the iron rod that Liu Wen had dropped, and charged forward!
The five lackeys who had just dealt with the lime powder watched in surprise as Li Fei, instead of running away, charged towards them, looking rather dazed.
"On—"
A little leader shouted, rushing to meet Li Fei first.
It made no sense for a dozen of their own to be scared off by one person.
As they were about to collide, Li Fei activated 'Blood Rage'.
Inside the Myriad Blood Pearl, a Blood Soul was instantly consumed.
The next second, a warm current burst from the Myriad Blood Pearl, swiftly flowing into Li Fei's limbs and bones, filling his entire body with explosive power!
Li Fei felt the long-lost sensation of blood boiling, and he wanted to roar out loud.
He swung the iron rod with all his might, and the little leader did the same.
Bang!!
The two iron rods, carrying the sound of breaking wind, collided fiercely and dented inward at the point of impact.
The next second, the iron rod flew out of the little leader's hand.
His face filled with shock, he couldn't comprehend how this seemingly not very muscular youth could unleash such formidable power, even stronger than the gang's strongest, Gang Leader Liu Wen!
Amidst the opponent's stupefaction, Li Fei decisively executed the Hook Scythe Leg and effortlessly brought him down to the ground, following up with a "soccer kick" that was absolutely forbidden in the ring. His foot heavily struck the opponent's face!
The opponent groaned, his nose instantly fracturing. Blood gushed out, painting his face red, and the intense pain knocked him out cold.
Li Fei continued to face the underlings coming from behind.
Four underlings charged almost simultaneously—two attacked from the front and the other two from the sides, targeting Li Fei's shoulders and legs.
Their coordination was seamless, evidently well-practiced in these tactics.
Li Fei raised his right arm above his head, shielding it as the two front attackers hit him with iron rods.
First defending with his Heavenly Gang Dominator Body to dissipate the force, his iron rod then thrust forward like a sharp sword, piercing the chest of one underling.
The stricken underling's face turned pale instantly, dropping his iron rod and clutching his chest as he staggered to the ground, wailing loudly.
Bang! Bang!
Simultaneously, the two underlings from the sides struck Li Fei with their iron rods.
One targeted his shoulder, the other his leg, bending the rods slightly with the force. Yet, Li Fei's body didn't even sway. His movements uninterrupted, he thrust the blood-stained tip of his iron rod towards the second underling in front.
"Ah—"
As the scream echoed, Li Fei took down another.
He spun around and swung his iron rod at the underling to his right. The underling reflexively raised his iron rod to block, but with a loud bang, his iron rod was smashed to the ground. Following swiftly was a hit to the arm, breaking the bone instantly!
The underling began to wail, clutching his arm.
Li Fei felt his strength at that moment was even greater than Zhou Yishan's, who dominated Xing City.
He turned and swung his iron rod to his left, easily taking down another.
In just a few seconds, including Liu Wen, six men were now lying on the ground, six remained.
The remaining six underlings had been rushing towards him. By the time Li Fei had dealt with the first six, they had just arrived.
Before they could even feel fear, Li Fei tossed aside his bent iron rod for a new one and charged at them.
Still blocking with raised arms and striking with his iron rod.
With Li Fei's current strength, anyone hit directly by the rod suffered fractured bones!
As he took down two more in front, an underling sneaked behind him, malice in his eyes as he drew a dagger from his waist and plunged it towards Li Fei's lower back!
These men were no strangers to bloodshed. If not for their employer's instruction to avoid fatalities, they wouldn't have come with just iron rods but with machetes instead.
However, some still carried daggers.
As this underling successfully stabbed Li Fei with the dagger, the rest sighed in relief.
No matter how tough Li Fei was, a stab in the lower back would surely cripple him.
Ding—
With a crisp sound, the underling who stabbed at Li Fei's lower back froze.
His knife hadn't gone through but was blocked by a metal plate.
"Anti-stabbing clothes? He's wearing anti-stabbing clothes?!"
One underling stared at Li Fei as if seeing a ghost.
Anti-stabbing clothes, regularly used by the Inspection Bureau, are vests made of two metal plates designed to protect against knife slashes and stab wounds.
Members of the Inspection Bureau wear them when dealing with gang members, so the underlings from Bear Power Gang were very familiar with this gear.
Li Fei had a father who was a Platoon Leader at the Inspection Bureau, so acquiring this gear wasn't difficult. But how paranoid must someone be to carry lime powder every day and wear anti-stabbing clothes under his garments?
On the tree-lined path, the upright Li Fei turned around, the shadows of the trees enveloping him.
At this moment, his not-so-large figure seemed somewhat terrifying to the underlings.
