Ye Fengwu's face always carried a faint smile, as if he didn't take the upcoming match seriously at all, which caused Li Hu to feel his admiration for Ye Fengwu diminish.
This person either looked down on him or was just bluffing—he didn't seem to have any extraordinary skills.
Whoosh~!
Suddenly, Li Hu moved. The heavy military boots dug deep into the grass as his body shot forward like an arrow, his iron fists rushing straight for Ye Fengwu's vital points.
The power and speed of his strikes were much stronger than those of Chen Nan earlier.
Ye Fengwu nodded appreciatively. Li Hu's speed and strength were almost at the limit of muscle power, and even among the elite soldiers, he must rank highly.
So, Ye Fengwu moved too, twisting his waist and kicking out.
Chen Nan's eyes went wide, because Ye Fengwu used the exact same move that he had used to defeat him earlier—the whip kick.
But Ye Fengwu's whip kick was far more lethal than his own.
Whoosh~!
Faced with the whip kick, Li Hu didn't dare to take it head-on. He performed a backflip, then sprung back up like a fish leaping from the water, trying to use the same counterattack that Ye Fengwu had used on Chen Nan.
That was the flaw left after the whip kick. However, just as Li Hu shot back up, Ye Fengwu's leg came crashing down on his head.
Ye Fengwu was not like Chen Nan. His muscle strength had already been pushed to its extreme, and both his speed and power had reached the peak of human potential, leaving no openings even after the whip kick.
Thus, after the whip kick came a downward strike with no break in between.
Seeing this, Li Hu was shocked by Ye Fengwu's speed. He rolled to the ground in a panic to dodge the strike.
Whoosh~!
Before he could even get up, the sound of wind rushing toward him came again. Li Hu was bewildered, as the seamless series of moves left him with no chance to retaliate.
So, he rolled again to dodge.
Boom~!
A muffled thud echoed where he had been just a moment ago. He quickly looked back to find that the sewer grate had been shattered into pieces, and Ye Fengwu was calmly smiling at him.
At this moment, Li Hu broke out in a cold sweat. If Ye Fengwu had continued his attack, he would never have been able to dodge it.
"Not bad," Ye Fengwu said, almost complimenting Li Hu.
Li Hu slowly stood up, his face stiff and not recovering for a long while. After a long pause, he said seriously, "If this were a life-or-death fight… how many moves would I survive?"
Ye Fengwu replied with a calm smile, "Not more than two."
"Eh…" Li Hu's eyes went wide, and a trace of despair appeared in his once-steely gaze. He was a three-time champion of the Jidong Military, and yet… he had lost to a high-risk criminal.
Moreover, he didn't doubt Ye Fengwu's words. In a life-or-death fight, he wouldn't last more than two moves.
At this moment, three pairs of eyes, hidden in the bushes, on the roof of the villa, and under the grass, were all wide with shock.
Chen Nan, standing to the side, covered her mouth in astonishment. She was a martial artist herself and could tell the incredible skill displayed in the brief encounter. Though it only lasted less than two seconds, this wasn't something any movie special effects could replicate.
What shocked her even more was that the sewer grate Ye Fengwu had crushed with a single kick was made of reinforced concrete. If that kick had hit her, she would have been dead.
At this moment, she looked at Ye Fengwu with a more complex gaze, a hint of anger rising. This guy, pretending to be weak, turned out to be a monster. How could a high-risk criminal have such skills?
While Chen Nan was lost in her thoughts, Ye Fengwu had already walked up to her. "Call me brother."
"Eh…" Chen Nan blinked, then her big eyes filled with anger. "What are you so proud of? So you can fight well, big deal."
Ye Fengwu gritted his teeth. "You're going back on your word?"
Chen Nan bit her lip and huffed, "I, Chen Nan, always keep my word, Wu-ge."
Ye Fengwu smiled proudly. "You're a good girl. Bye-bye."
"I'm Chen, not 'Wu-ge,' you scoundrel. I'll kick you out of Qinghan's house sooner or later," Chen Nan stomped her foot, muttering angrily as Ye Fengwu left.
After Ye Fengwu left, Li Hu approached Chen Zuoshan, still carrying a trace of despair in his eyes.
Chen Zuoshan smiled. "You're not at a loss losing to him."
Li Hu, surprised, couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering him. "Sir, who exactly is this person?"
Clearly, Li Hu didn't believe Ye Fengwu was just a high-risk criminal.
Chen Zuoshan said, "He may not know you, but you must know him. If I hadn't recruited you as my personal guard, you might have entered the Blood Wolf Special Forces under his assessment."
When the words left his mouth, Li Hu's muscular body shook violently, his once despondent eyes suddenly lighting up with excitement.
"Is… is it him? I'm actually lucky enough to have fought him. Thank you, Sir, for telling me this." Li Hu's eyes couldn't hide his excitement.
That person… He was a legend in the military, a god of war-like figure. Few knew his real name, as he had a more famous title… Blood Wolf King.
Years ago, after undergoing rigorous selection, he qualified for the Blood Wolf Special Forces assessment, and the instructor for that assessment had been none other than the Blood Wolf King.
Many others, full of admiration, had hoped to witness the prowess of the Blood Wolf King, but he had missed that chance, having become the personal bodyguard of the old general.
That had been his regret, but today, he not only saw the Blood Wolf King but had even fought against him.
If this person was the Blood Wolf King, then it was only natural he lost to him.
…
When Ye Fengwu returned home, it was already 7:00 PM. The door was opened by Jing Si.
"Uncle, you're back," Jing Si said sweetly, smiling at him.
Ye Fengwu gently ruffled Jing Si's little head. "Where's your mom?"
Jing Si pointed to Qin Qinghan's room, pouting. "Mom is in her room. She's not happy today. Uncle, please don't bully her, okay?"
Ye Fengwu's face darkened as he noticed a cardboard box full of miscellaneous items in the corner of the living room. He immediately understood what had happened.
He turned to Jing Si. "Uncle will never bully your mom. I'll go check on her, okay?"
Jing Si nodded, and Ye Fengwu pushed open Qin Qinghan's door.
The room was dimly lit, with only the bedside lamp on. Qin Qinghan was curled up on the bed, surrounded by tissues.
Seeing Ye Fengwu, Qin Qinghan hurriedly wiped her tears away. "You're back. I'll go make dinner."
She quickly got up from the bed and walked toward the door.
As she passed by Ye Fengwu, he grabbed her hand.
Qin Qinghan resisted, trying to break free, but couldn't. She had no choice but to let him hold her hand.
Ye Fengwu spoke in a deep voice. "The Qin family is digging their own grave."
Hearing this, Qin Qinghan looked at Ye Fengwu in surprise and frowned. "You don't need to worry about this. I'll go look for a job tomorrow."
She pulled her hand away and walked into the kitchen.
Ye Fengwu had long anticipated that the Qin family would dismiss Qin Qinghan. This was part of his plan. If they didn't go to extremes, how could he justify wiping them out?
He pulled out his phone and called Jiang Hao.
Soon, Jiang Hao's voice came through. "Wu-ge, no one from the project department showed up with your wife today."
Ye Fengwu snorted. "Of course not. They've already fired Qinghan."
"What? That Qin family is something else. Wu-ge, just say the word, and I can destroy the Qin family in two days." Jiang Hao said angrily.
Ye Fengwu replied calmly, "Your wife is simple-minded. If we do that, she'll think even worse of us."
Jiang Hao was confused. "Wu-ge, but we can't let your wife suffer this humiliation."
Ye Fengwu smiled. "Do you think I'll let the Qin family go? Xiao Hao, starting tomorrow, give as many projects as possible to the Qin family. As long as they can handle it, give them everything."
