Chapter 15

The small thug could only emit dry, painful groans from his mouth. Ning Yi’s face still looked slightly immature, but the strength in his hands was immense. Although the thug had both hands free, he had no chance to use them.

He could only stare at Ning Yi with a pair of terrified eyes.

Of course, Ning Yi wasn’t really trying to kill him. He just wanted to make it clear whose hands now held his life.

So he loosened his grip a bit, allowing the thug to catch his breath.

"Ghost..." The thug, once he caught his breath, immediately started trembling and shouted in fear.

"Who... who told you to come and kill me?" Ning Yi applied a little more pressure and asked slowly.

"I... I don’t know." The thug shook his head frantically.

"If you don’t know, then I’ll just send you to the King of Hell." Ning Yi tightened his grip again, not expecting this guy, who looked tough, to be so cowardly, mistaking him for a ghost.

The thug, frightened, quickly confessed everything: "Ah... there’s a head and a debtor, little brother. If you want to take revenge, you should find someone else. This really has nothing to do with me. It was all done by Ah Cheng from the bar. If I had known it would result in a death, I would never have participated, no matter what. So... so... please let me go... it’s all Ah Cheng... Ah Cheng’s doing. He... he took a bribe from someone else and deliberately killed you."

"Who is Ah Cheng?"

"He’s in charge of the fighting arena in an underground bar not far from here."

"Take me to see him..."

"Aren’t... aren’t you a ghost?" The thug suddenly realized that ghosts don’t need someone to show them the way.

Ning Yi tightened his grip again, not bothering to argue: "Take me to see him."

"He... he’s not here today. I don’t know what’s going on. His deputy said he’s on a long leave."

Ning Yi frowned, then suddenly tightened his grip and said slowly, "So, you’re no longer useful to me?"

"Wait, wait, I just remembered something. When Ah Cheng was on the phone that day, he kept mentioning someone’s name, something like 'Hui Shao'..."

"Hui Shao? Guo Hui?" Ning Yi frowned again, a name instinctively coming to mind.

"Yes... yes... it’s Guo Hui. He’s a well-known school bully at your Nanling High School." The thug confessed hurriedly.

"What else do you know?" Ning Yi asked coldly.

"I really don’t know anything else. Please let me go, I really don’t know anything."

"Nothing? Besides Ah Cheng, you don’t know the other two?"

"One is called Shanmao, and the other is called Daxiong. They’ve been hanging around outside for a long time. I don’t know where they are, but Ah Cheng definitely knows." The thug’s legs gave out, and he knelt down, "Big brother, big brother, please spare me, I’ll do anything for you."

Ning Yi looked at him, not entirely convinced he was lying, and lacking experience in interrogation. After some thought, he said calmly, "When the four of you beat me up, did you think about sparing me? When you were hitting my head with a brick, did you think about sparing me?"

"Are... are you a ghost or a human?" The thug stared at Ning Yi in fear, "You were clearly dead..."

"Whether I’m a human or a ghost, my demands are simple. I’ll return the number of times you hit my head."

"I’ll fight you to the death..." The thug’s face changed, and he suddenly leaped up, headbutting Ning Yi.

Ning Yi kicked him directly, and the guy, after being hit, rolled on the ground and scrambled forward.

Ning Yi frowned, picked up a small stone from the ground, and aimed at his leg, shooting it like a bullet.

"Thud!" The guy fell to his knees but quickly got up and ran forward frantically.

Ning Yi chased after him, and the guy turned a corner, already running to the alley entrance: "Damn it, you wait for me."

Ning Yi felt a bit regretful, thinking he was still too inexperienced, otherwise, he wouldn’t have let him escape.

But just as he was regretting, the guy suddenly stumbled, as if he had tripped, and fell onto the road at the alley entrance.

Coincidentally, a speeding night truck instantly ran over him.

A sharp screech of brakes followed, and Ning Yi frowned, walking over to take a distant look. A strong smell of blood filled the air, and the guy’s upper body was already a bloody mess, dead beyond any doubt.

It was truly fate!

Ning Yi looked at the scene indifferently for a moment, then slowly left. As he passed a utility pole, he couldn’t help but support himself and vomit.

Although the guy wasn’t killed by his own hands, he was indirectly responsible. This could be considered revenge.

Perhaps because of the experience of two lifetimes and the cycle of life and death, Ning Yi quickly recovered from the initial shock and felt no guilt over the thug’s death.

He then calmly returned to the underground bar to continue his plan to earn money and steal energy.

However, in the following few fights at the underground bar, the quasi-martial artists didn’t appear much.

Despite this, Ning Yi stayed until around 4 a.m., gaining another 1.5 energy points, bringing his total to 13 energy points. As for money, he quickly accumulated 700 yuan.

As time passed and the guests in the bar gradually left due to fatigue, Ning Yi also left the underground bar. With fewer people around, he was more likely to be remembered, and the most dangerous part was that no one dared to step onto the stage, as the fighting arena was too mysterious, causing their battle qi to disappear for no reason.

After leaving the underground bar, Ning Yi found a random hotel, paid 60 yuan, and spent the night in a hurry.

The next morning, he rushed back to school and first returned to his dormitory.

As expected, everything he had left in the dormitory had been thrown out by Xu Kun and the others, and his bed was covered with trash.

When he entered, no one else was in the dormitory, but Liu Junjun was urinating on his bed.

Liu Junjun didn’t originally live in this dormitory, but it seemed he harbored deep hatred and came early to urinate on his bed.

Seeing Ning Yi, Liu Junjun sneered, slowly zipped up his pants, and mocked, "Waste, what? Not happy? If you’re not happy, you can come and hit me."

"That was your request..." Ning Yi smiled faintly, threw his broken backpack to the side, and in one swift move, kicked Liu Junjun in the stomach.

Liu Junjun stumbled and fell to the ground, about to curse, but Ning Yi was already there, grabbing him by the waist and throwing him against the wall.

"Thud!" Liu Junjun winced in pain, his face pale, unable to speak.

But this was just the beginning. Ning Yi then grabbed his ankle and dragged him, lifting him up and punching him in the chest.

"Bang!" Liu Junjun slammed against the wall again, this time crying in pain.

"You damn it, I’ll kill your whole family." But before he could finish, Ning Yi grabbed his hair, dragged him up, and kicked him in the stomach.

"Ugh!" Liu Junjun felt his bones were about to shatter, the excruciating pain making him realize he had no more capital to be arrogant.

But he still shouted defiantly, "Ning Yi, I... I won’t let you off."

"I don’t need you to let me off. Come, lick up the urine you just left." Ning Yi grabbed his hair, dragged him to the bed, slapped him a few times, and forcefully pressed his head into the urine-soaked blanket, rubbing it in.

Liu Junjun, unable to bear such humiliation, burst into tears.

Just as he was about to beg for mercy, a loud voice came from the door: "Damn it, Ning Yi, you damn let go of Jun Shao."

Ning Yi looked over and saw Xu Kun, Chen Baihao, and a few other dorm mates standing there, staring in shock at what was happening.

Ning Yi laughed strangely, "I damn won’t let go. If you have the guts, come and save him."
