Chapter 79

Please, everyone, give it a follow!

----------------------------------------

"Get the hell out of here, all of you! If anyone dares to stay a moment longer, I'll beat you up!"

A man with red-dyed hair swaggered over, followed by several other men dressed in flashy shirts, each of them holding a cigarette, looking like typical hooligans. Their appearance and demeanor were almost as if they had "I'm a thug" written on their faces.

Amid the rustling sound, everyone who was sitting and eating at the tables quickly stood up and hurried away, afraid of being beaten if they lingered.

The stall owner, trembling with fear, hid behind the counter, not daring to stand up, let alone confront them. He could only pray that these fierce men would leave as soon as they finished their business.

Su Mu's brows furrowed; the pleasant atmosphere had been ruined. These people were clearly targeting him; otherwise, why would the beer bottle land next to his table?

Even though Shengjing is the capital of Jiangnan Province, there are still many places where the light of the law does not reach. As the saying goes, where there is light, there is also darkness. Su Mu was not surprised to see these thugs. He had seen such things many times when he was a taxi driver and a student.

But why would they target him?

Could it be...

"Su Mu, don't take them seriously. Let's go," Ye Xi said with a look of displeasure.

"Alright!" Su Mu smiled.

"Go? Who said you could go?"

The red-haired man walked up with a grin, his eyes lingering on Ye Xi's face, which made him drool. He said with a wicked smile, "Hey, little girl, why don't you join us for a few drinks? Don't worry, I'm much better than this pretty boy. You'll see, hehe."

"You... shameless..." Ye Xi's face turned cold; she had never been teased like this before.

"Sit down, leave it to me!" Su Mu said calmly, standing up and scanning the red-haired man and his companions. He asked calmly, "Who sent you here?"

"Who could send us? That's a joke. Pretty boy, don't get in our way. If you know what's good for you, kneel down and beg for mercy, or I'll break your bones," the red-haired man said with a sneer.

"Right, right, daring to challenge Brother Mao, you're asking for it."

"Brother Mao, why don't we just cripple him?"

"Hehe, Brother Mao, this girl is so pretty, let's take her back and have some fun."

The thugs around him shouted with lecherous grins, as if they couldn't wait to strip Ye Xi and ravage her on the spot.

"Scoundrels!"

Hearing these filthy words, a cold light flashed in Su Mu's eyes. The story of a man's duty to kill, which he had just heard from Mei Zheng, surged in his mind. These scoundrels dared to insult Ye Xi and tease his girlfriend; no one would be allowed to stand.

"Brothers, let's... Ow..."

Before the red-haired man could finish his sentence, he was sent flying as if he were riding a cloud, kicked hard in the chest by Su Mu. He crashed into several tables and fell to the ground, screaming in pain.

Bang! Bang!

Without giving the other thugs a chance to react, Su Mu, like a fierce tiger descending from the mountains, leaped up and quickly disabled them. With a series of crisp snaps, their arms and legs were broken, and they screamed in agony.

"You dare to touch us? Do you know who we work for?" the red-haired man shouted.

"I don't care who you work for!" Su Mu said coldly.

"Beat them, Su Mu, cripple these scoundrels. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility," Ye Xi shouted, her eyes blazing with anger.

"Brother Hao, Brother Hao, save us."

The red-haired man, lying on the ground, suddenly shouted toward the front. From a car parked by the roadside, several figures emerged. The leader was a man with a sinister face, Brother Hao, also known as Rat, whom Sun Bin had mentioned. After receiving Sun Bin's call, he had brought his men over.

However, Rat had no intention of getting involved in such a minor matter, thinking that sending a few lackeys would suffice. But Su Mu, the pretty boy, turned out to be quite capable. Forced to intervene, Rat appeared.

Rat knew that if he failed to carry out Sun Bin's orders, he would never be able to operate in Shengjing again.

"Su Mu..."

"It's fine, as long as I'm here, the sky won't fall!" Su Mu held Ye Xi's hand, shielding her behind him, facing Rat and his men with a cold expression.

Mei Zheng's words were right: in society and in politics, being too low-key only brings endless trouble. Sometimes, you need to be high-profile to prevent others from bullying you. Only by being high-profile can you show that you are a strong leader worth following.

Just like now!

No matter who sent these scoundrels, since they dared to target Ye Xi and try to harm him, Su Mu would not let them off. Mei Zheng had said that he would back him up unless it was a matter of life and death.

In Qinglin City, Su Mu might have been more cautious, but in Shengjing, he had his mentor Wu Qingsheng and his master Mei Zheng. He didn't believe anyone would dare to touch him.

"Brother Hao, I..." the red-haired man struggled to crawl over and said urgently.

"Shut up!"

Rat coldly shouted, turning to stare at Su Mu with a sinister look. "Who are you, brother?"

"Who are you?" Su Mu said indifferently.

"You?"

Rat said menacingly, "Brother, this is Shengjing. Don't think that just because you're a big shot in your little corner, you can act like this here. I'm telling you, if you're a dragon, you'll have to coil up, and if you're a tiger, you'll have to lie down. Come with me, brother."

"Come with you? Who do you think you are? Let's be straightforward, who sent you here?" Su Mu said calmly.

"Kid, you're asking for it!" Rat said menacingly.

Su Mu stood quietly, not taking the few men in front of him seriously. He said calmly, "I don't care who you are. Since you've provoked me, there's no room for negotiation. If you tell me who sent you, I might consider letting you go."

"Haha, Brother Hao, did you hear that? This guy is still so arrogant even when he's about to die," the red-haired man said with disdain.

"Kid, I advise you to be a bit more respectful and come with us. After we're done, you might be missing an arm or a leg, but you won't die. If you refuse, don't blame us for being too rough," Rat said coldly, his threat clear.

"Thugs! You're all thugs! Do you have any respect for the law? Su Mu, call the police and have them arrested! I want to see if there's any law left in Shengjing!" Ye Xi shouted angrily.

"Law?"

A playful smile appeared on Su Mu's lips. As a practitioner of the official arts, he knew that even if these thugs were sent to jail, the law would not be able to do much to them. They would come out and continue their ways, unable to solve the root of the problem.

Since that's the case, let evil be punished by evil. If the law can't handle it perfectly, someone else can, and they will do it beautifully.

"Du Pinshang, are you still planning to watch from the sidelines? If you don't come out now, don't call me teacher, and get as far away as you can!" Su Mu said calmly, looking at the crowd.

"Hehe!"

As he spoke, a tall, muscular young man with short hair and a basketball jersey pushed his way through the crowd. His face was full of smiles, and he rushed to Su Mu, patting his chest in admiration.

"Teacher, you're amazing! It's been a year, and your skills are still as good as ever! My admiration for you is like the endless Yellow River..."

"Shut up!" Su Mu shouted, knowing that if he didn't stop him, the boy would ramble on endlessly.

At the sight of the young man, Rat's previously arrogant face turned grim, as if he had swallowed a fly, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

"Teacher, you're really impressive! I feel like I'm back in the old days. This must be Teacher's wife, right? Hello, Teacher's wife. Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Du Pinshang, your teacher's disciple, his only disciple. Teacher doesn't have any female disciples, which is a shame. If he did, I'd have a little sister."

"Cough, cough, I'm getting off-topic. Teacher's wife, you're so beautiful, I couldn't help myself. Don't be offended, but I've never seen a woman as beautiful as you. Don't worry, Teacher's wife, as long as I'm here, no one will touch you," Du Pinshang said, raising his strong, muscular arm.

Ye Xi's forehead was covered with black lines. She had never met someone so familiar and smooth-talking, speaking without a single pause, like a flowing river.

If Ye Xi knew that the Du Pinshang of the past was completely different, a quiet and somewhat introverted person, she would have been stunned.

"Hey, kid, who do you think you are, interfering with Brother Hao's business? Do you want to die?" the red-haired man suddenly shouted, the anger he had been holding in after being disciplined by Su Mu bursting out.

Hell, just anyone can ride on my neck and defecate? A random college student dares to be so arrogant! If I don't show you who's boss, how can I impress Brother Hao?

Slap!

To everyone's surprise, as soon as the red-haired man shouted, Du Pinshang hadn't even moved, but Rat turned around and slapped him hard. The red-haired man's face instantly swelled up.

"Brother Hao, I..."

The red-haired man was stunned!

The lackeys were stunned!

The onlookers were stunned!

Even Ye Xi was a bit dizzy, wondering what was going on. Was it an internal conflict?

The only one who remained calm was Su Mu. He took Ye Xi's hand, looked at Du Pinshang, and smiled. "Did you hear what they said? I don't care how you handle it, just make sure justice is served. Ye Xi, let's go!"

"Just like that?" Ye Xi followed Su Mu obediently, asking softly, "Is it okay?"

"Don't worry, Du Pinshang can handle it. If he can't, he wouldn't be Du Dafa. Don't forget, I don't take cowards as my disciples," Su Mu smiled.

"Teacher, you and Teacher's wife should leave first. I'll find you after I'm done. Don't turn off your phone!" Du Pinshang shouted as they left, then turned to Rat, his face still smiling, but the smile carried a dangerous aura.

"Rat, come with me for a little walk."
