Chapter 89: He is Actually a Martial Arts Master
In the hall, already surrounded by a crowd of underlings, completely packed.
The return of the eldest son, Sun Ling, made Sun Guoting burst into laughter.
Sun Ling abruptly turned around and walked to the center of the hall.
Facing Ji Qiubai's indifferent face, Sun Ling coldly said, "It's time to settle our accounts. Back then, you brought hundreds of people to block me, yet you failed to kill me. That is the first account!"
"A year ago, you caused the brutal death of my second brother on the streets, that's the second account."
"In the past three months, you have repeatedly plundered territories in Jiangbei New District, making it the third account!"
Each account Sun Ling listed with gnashing teeth. Even Fang Yu in the corner couldn't have imagined that Ji Qiubai had done so many cruel things over these years.
Ji Qiubai simply smiled lightly and said nonchalantly, "In the underworld, everyone has to pay their dues eventually, right?"
Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but admire, "Well said!"
"Of course, Brother Ji is the only one among us five brothers who possesses both wisdom and beauty," Yan Hu proudly said.
"Brother Tiger…" Fang Yu smirked.
"Oh, wrong, I meant Brother Yu."
In the hall.
Sun Ling spoke arrogantly, laughing, "It's just too bad, heaven has eyes; I didn't die! You can't accept that, can you? Especially because you chose a life-and-death duel! Everything you took from my foster father, I shall now reclaim, including your life!"
"Is that so?" Ji Qiubai responded.
Sun Ling said, "Even my younger brother Liu Zhong could have left you without a single piece of armor; today I want to see who else dares to court death!?"
The voice echoed throughout the entire dining hall.
Everyone knew the terror of a life-and-death duel. In the world of gangsters, ruthlessness is key.
Fighting over territories and killing is common on the streets.
There are numerous unwritten rules on Jiangzhou streets, and the rules of the life-and-death duel have been passed down for over a hundred years.
In a life-and-death duel, there is a terrifying rule that either side has the right to wage a relentless battle.
Moreover, if one side continues to challenge, the fight will go on indefinitely, until no one is left to challenge.
This is the most ruthless way to settle scores in the underworld, putting aside winning or losing, a life-and-death duel can also vent inner hatred.
Therefore, when Ji Qiubai chose a life-and-death duel, Sun Ling in the shadows was extremely pleased.
There are no sentiments in a battlefield; since choosing this path, one must walk it, even if on knees.
Sun Ling's return was like a strong heart stimulant. With his unrivaled skills in Jiangzhou, the life-and-death duel was practically tailored for him.
Thus, he spoke out boldly, "Who else, step forward!?"
Sun Ling's shout was not only a direct challenge to Ji Qiubai but also a warning to all the big shots present that Mr. Sun is not to be trifled with.
But what about Ji Qiubai?
Sun Ling was naturally born to fight ruthlessly, eagerly welcoming Ji Qiubai's declaration of war. These few words were meant to push Ji Qiubai to a dead end. If you don't fight, not only will you lose the life-and-death match and forfeit the scene, but your face will also be gone, so how can you continue to mix in Jiangzhou?
Just at this moment—
Slap!
Yan Hu suddenly banged the table, stood up, and shouted, "Your granddad, I, will try you out!"
He couldn't hold back and stepped up!
Jiang Xiaoxiao beside him was so excited she almost shouted aloud.
Fang Yu slightly frowned.
When Ji Qiubai's gaze swept over here, Fang Yu realized something was off. He even felt the unruly Yan Hu who couldn't be restrained. Knowing Brother Tiger's character, he knew it was impossible to hold him back. Yan Hu also highly regarded Ji Qiubai; forcibly stopping him would not only seem cowardly but also affect their brotherly bond.
As Ji Qiubai's top warrior, in such a life-and-death duel, he had to step forward.
"Are you Yan Hu?" Sun Ling's eyes were cold.
"It's your granddad Hu." Ron gripped his fists tightly, "Cut the crap, let's speak with our skills!"
"Pretty arrogant!" Sun Ling's eyes flashed with a cold gleam.
"Take this punch!" Yan Hu couldn't be bothered with idle talk, his fighting spirit surged like roaring waves and erupting volcanoes.
"This is a life-and-death duel, I advise you to prepare your last words early!" With a cold snort, Sun Ling charged forward.
Bang bang bang!
The two fiercely fought together.
This is a life-and-death duel!
Fang Yu was suddenly stimulated by these words; it meant Yan Hu was resolved to fight Sun Ling to the death!
Out of the corner of his eye, Fang Yu glanced at Ji Qiubai who quietly walked to a nearby table, sat down, picked up a glass of red wine, and slowly savored it, as if the battle had nothing to do with him!
A surge of anger rose in his heart!
Fang Yu watched the battle in the arena with a stern gaze.
"Take another punch from me!" Yan Hu threw several punches and their fists collided.
With a shift of his body, his mountain-like figure pressed towards Sun Ling, instantly imposing a sense of oppression. The sound of fists cutting through the air was fierce.
"Merely barbaric!" Sun Ling sneered coldly, with his agile movements and strength no less than the plump Ron, he seemed to have gauged Ron's capabilities. A confidence settled in his heart.
Sun Ling twisted his body, skillfully dodging Yan Hu's attacks, and then swiftly struck Yan Hu's waist with his agile movements.
Bang bang bang—
Yan Hu swung his Iron Fist, but it was dodged again!
"Despicable!" Yan Hu gritted his teeth and glared at Sun Ling!
Fortunately, Yan Hu had a strong ability to take hits. Despite taking several punches, he only felt some pain, which wasn't enough to make him lose his fighting capability. These punches, instead, spurred his fighting spirit like a crazed wild bull, throwing caution to the wind and charging at Sun Ling.
Jiang Xiaoxiao, watching from outside the arena, couldn't help but widen her eyes, excited and expectant, "Brother Hu, keep it up—"
"Brother Hu, you're so amazing!"
It wasn't without reason that Yan Hu became renowned in Jiangzhou with such skills. One, for his immense strength, and two, for the many moves he learned over the years following his friends, which made him a tough opponent for anyone who wasn't a real master.
But this Sun Ling was a real master!
"Seeking death!"
Seeing the plump man charging like a wild bull, Sun Ling knew his chance had come! A brute with wild strength and unsophisticated moves could never match Sun Ling, who started Body Refinement from a young age and went through inhumane training.
Fang Yu shifted his gaze, focusing once again on Ji Qiubai.
Ji Qiubai, aren't you going to act?
Bang!
In the moment Yan Hu charged, Sun Ling unleashed his finishing move, a punch from nowhere, striking an eerie angle right at Yan Hu's chest.
Huh? What's happening!
Puh—
Yan Hu was immediately thrown backward, spitting blood!
In a corner, Fang Yu's eyes turned cold, thinking: So he's a Martial Arts practitioner, no wonder he's so arrogant.
This Sun Ling had hidden his abilities well, yet Fang Yu still sensed the Inner Strength in his punches! That's the unique Inner Strength of a Martial Arts practitioner!
Meanwhile, Sun Ling chuckled coldly, kicked off the ground, and rushed forward again—just one more move and the number one fighter under Ji Qiubai would fall.
Everyone watched with a gasp.
Sun Guoting too was brimming with excitement, his eyes gleaming.
Seeing this scene, Fang Yu's heart sank to the bottom.
All the waiting, turned into anger by Ji Qiubai's indifference!
Whoosh!
Fang Yu moved!
At the same instant, he slammed his palm on the table.
His figure shot out like lightning!
With a snap, the table instantly burst into pieces!
Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned by Fang Yu's sudden action, she screamed out loud!
