Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

Huo Lao's face showed a look of utter disdain, as if resolving Zhu Bufan was nothing more to him than the mere act of lifting a finger.

At this time, Liu Yanran had already run to Zhu Bufan's side and was tightly hugging his arm with both hands.

After all, Liu Yanran was just a woman.

When faced with real trouble, she would still be afraid. Of course, this time she was doing a lot better than the last.

Zhu Bufan was speechless and furious.

He hadn't eaten for a whole day and night, and all he wanted was to have a meal out. It was bad enough that Liu Yanran insisted on accompanying him, but just as he had started on his second bowl of rice, Chen Shiqing brought his thugs to look for trouble with him.

At this moment, Zhu Bufan was really angry.

But compared to the hunger, filling his stomach was the top priority.

So, why would Zhu Bufan care what Chen Shiqing and any old man like Huo Lao was up to?

As soon as Huo Lao finished speaking, he just lifted his head and quietly waited for Zhu Bufan to cripple his own legs before crawling out from in front of him.

But!!!

After waiting for a few minutes, Zhu Bufan still hadn't made a single move.

Not only did Zhu Bufan stay still, but he didn't even respond. He just kept on eating as if nothing had happened.

Immediately, Huo Lao became incredibly enraged.

Huo Lao had roamed the martial arts world for many years, and never before had he been so blatantly ignored.

It was outright disrespect.

Could Huo Lao not be furious?

Huo Lao, in this territory, and within the Martial Arts Association, was a very well-known figure. This meant that if you were part of the underworld or knew anything about martial arts, you ought to know who Huo Lao was, even if you were just a young lad.

Huo Lao was not only ruthless but also possessed formidable strength, which is why he had been able to live so carefreely over the years.

Rumors had it that once Huo Lao made a move, he would surely cripple the legs of others.

It didn't matter whether his opponent was an elderly person, a child, or even a woman—if someone provoked him or someone else paid, he would beat them to the point they couldn't take care of themselves, then cripple their legs.

Thus, Huo Lao was also called by another name: Cripple-Legs Huo.

So, when people heard the self-introduced name: Cripple-Legs Huo.

They would be extremely terrified.

Chen Shiqing paid a high price to enlist Cripple-Legs Huo to deal with Zhu Bufan.

One reason was that Zhu Bufan was indeed capable of fighting; even his two bodyguards were able fighters, yet they couldn't withstand a single move from Zhu Bufan.

Therefore, employing Cripple-Legs Huo was also a matter of playing it safe.

Secondly, it was because Cripple-Legs Huo was ruthless—once he acted, it was certain he would cripple someone's legs.

After Zhu Bufan's legs were crippled by Huo Lao, wouldn't dealing with Zhu Bufan afterward be as simple as saying a word?

That's why Chen Shiqing hired such a fierce character like Cripple-Legs Huo.

Since Huo Lao was being requested to deal with the issue, Chen Shiqing naturally explained Zhu Bufan's situation very clearly to him.

Since it was explained, Huo Lao of course assumed Zhu Bufan was either part of the underworld or belonged to the Martial Arts Association, given Zhu Bufan's knowledge of a Cultivation Technique.

Considering these two aspects.

That meant, in either case, Zhu Bufan would certainly know who he, Huo Lao, was—he had no doubt about that.

So, Mr. Huo declared his background.

And Mr. Huo did this to intimidate Zhu Bufan, also genuinely wishing: Without laying a hand, let Zhu Bufan cripple his own legs.

However, the reality was contrary to Mr. Huo's expectations.

Zhu Bufan was not only unafraid of his reputation, it seemed as if nobody took him seriously.

Therefore, Mr. Huo was very angry.

This time, he was truly very angry.

Since his debut, only he has looked down on others, never the other way around, Zhu Bufan was the first.

Originally, Chen Shiqing had paid him enough money only to cripple someone's legs.

But Zhu Bufan's performance made Mr. Huo decide at this moment that he would render this ignorant kid completely helpless.

Of course, in the eyes of Mr. Huo who cripples legs, crippling legs still allowed one to take care of oneself.

"Kid, you're quite something, the most courageous young man I've met. After Mr. Huo announced his background, you can still sit there eating so calmly without saying a word. You truly are the first. Not bad, very good... However, it's a pity that next, not only will your legs be crippled, but I'll also beat you until you are unable to take care of yourself..."

Although Liu Yanran was afraid, compared to the last time, her mind was clearer this time.

"You... you are 'Cripple Legs Huo'?"

Therefore, after the old man Mr. Huo, 'Cripple Legs Huo', finished speaking, she was immediately shocked.

The Liu Family where Liu Yanran previously lived was a large clan, so she had some understanding of matters concerning the martial world.

Coincidentally, she had also heard of this 'Cripple Legs Huo'.

At this point, Liu Yanran was truly frightened.

"Chen Shiqing, I never thought that in order to have me, you would actually call upon this notoriously infamous 'Cripple Legs Huo'. Don't you fear that your family will be attacked by other families?"

However, she soon regained her composure.

"Hehe, is that so?" Chen Shiqing, upon hearing Liu Yanran's words, was not concerned, but instead chuckled, "Liu Yanran, ah Liu Yanran, you really are just a little woman. Don't you know that I just need to get rid of him, then confine you for my own release, and who would know that I paid 'Cripple Legs Huo'?"

"Hahaha..."

After finishing his words, Chen Shiqing burst into a loud laugh.

"You..."

Liu Yanran was left speechless; indeed, she had not expected Chen Shiqing to be so malicious.

But compared to that, 'Cripple Legs Huo' was indeed formidable. Though Liu Yanran had only heard of him, such things are not to be taken lightly.

She glanced at Zhu Bufan, who at this moment, was still eating his meal as calm as ever, which made Liu Yanran almost burst with anger.

Is he... that hungry?

However, this time, Liu Yanran felt a trace of unwillingness.

"Chen Shiqing, what I said just now was all lies, you know he's just a poor loser, me eating with him was just to thank him. So, I beg you to let him go, I'm willing to be with you, I'm willing to be... to be your woman."

In the end, Liu Yanran glanced at Chen Shiqing, then bit her lip and stood up to speak.

"Heh, is that so? Then I, Chen Shiqing, am really quite lucky..." Hearing Liu Yanran's words, Chen Shiqing chuckled again.

"Is it possible?" Instead of responding to Chen Shiqing's cold laugh, Liu Yanran asked coldly.

"Possible? Liu Yanran, you think too highly of yourself. Let me tell you, under these circumstances, getting you is just a matter of time, do you think I would let him go?"

What a joke, after getting beaten up till his face swells like a pig's head, and 'borrowing money', do you think I would let him go?
