Chapter 18

Yang Yu was taken aback, no longer caring about opening the safe, he had already rolled to one side.

"Bang!"

Behind him came a violent collision. Yang Yu looked back in disbelief, and it was none other than Smiling Tiger. In his hand was the iron rod that Yang Yu had casually placed aside while opening the safe.

"I was too careless!"

Yang Yu couldn't even imagine what would have happened if he hadn't seen the situation behind him from the safe. He would have likely lost his life today.

The first strike missed, and Smiling Tiger was also a bit stunned. However, he knew it was impossible to kill Yang Yu again, so he dropped the iron rod and ran downstairs.

At this moment, how could Yang Yu let Smiling Tiger go? He stood up, and as Smiling Tiger reached the stairwell, Yang Yu raised his arm, and the last steel needle from the hidden arrow was launched.

"Chie!"

The steel needle pierced through Smiling Tiger's lower abdomen, and a惨叫 echoed as Smiling Tiger fell to the ground and rolled down the stairs.

Yang Yu quickly went downstairs, but it was quiet below, and there was no sign of Smiling Tiger. Even the people he had injured had all fled.

"Damn it!" Yang Yu cursed.

If Smiling Tiger escaped, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself. He hurriedly ran out of the bar and looked to the left. The empty street had no one. When he looked to the right, Yang Yu was stunned.

He saw a thin figure holding a brick high and smashing it violently into Smiling Tiger's back of the head. A惨叫 echoed, and Smiling Tiger fell to the ground, blood staining the area.

Only then did Yang Yu notice that the thin figure was the young man he had seen when he entered the Xuanwu Bar.

The young man seemed unsatisfied and continued to smash the brick into the fallen Smiling Tiger, blood splattering and flesh flying. The young man didn't stop until he was exhausted, then he wiped the blood from his face and slowly stood up.

Smiling Tiger was definitely dead, and Yang Yu let out a long sigh. Where did such a fierce young man come from? He was like a devil from hell. Killing wasn't scary, but how many people could do what the young man did?

The young man wiped the blood on his hands onto his clothes and turned to Yang Yu with a strange smile.

"You killed someone?" Yang Yu said calmly.

"I know, but he deserved it!" The young man was very calm, not at all like someone who had just killed for the first time.

"Killing is illegal." Yang Yu continued.

"So what? Ever since my sister, who I depended on, was killed by him, I have no reason to live. I'll turn myself in tomorrow." The young man was very composed.

"Sister?"

"He disgraced my sister, which led to her suicide. I waited here for over a month, and today I finally got my chance. Now I have avenged my sister." The young man spoke calmly, as if he were a sage who had seen through everything.

Yang Yu frowned but didn't speak. Although he hadn't studied law, he knew that killing would definitely result in a sentence. From the young man's perspective, Yang Yu didn't think he had done anything wrong. Instead, he admired the young man.

The young man's courage was something not everyone could possess. Yang Yu asked himself, if he were in the young man's position, he might have done the same.

"If your sister knew what you did for her, would she be happy or angry?" Yang Yu sighed.

Hearing this, the young man was unusually silent. He knew better than anyone what his sister's greatest wish was: for him to live a good life. But by avenging her, he had made it impossible to fulfill her wish.

"It doesn't matter. Killing is a matter of life and death, and avenging a grudge is a matter of honor. If I die, I'll confess to my sister in the afterlife." The young man said after a long pause.

"Killing is a matter of life and death, and avenging a grudge is a matter of honor!" Yang Yu was suddenly taken aback. Wasn't this the way of the martial world? And he, a sect leader, couldn't see it as clearly as a young man.

"Good!" Yang Yu suddenly praised, "Young man, what's your name?"

"Su Qi!" The young man replied.

Knowing the young man's name, Yang Yu smiled faintly. "You did well. You didn't do anything wrong today. Dealing with such a person, if you kill him, you kill him. We martial artists don't need to hesitate, especially when it comes to killing a beast."

Su Qi looked at Yang Yu in confusion.

"Xiao Qi, I'll find a way to cover up what happened today. You don't need to turn yourself in. I believe your sister would also want you to live a good life." Yang Yu continued.

"What do you mean?" Su Qi looked at Yang Yu in confusion.

"It's simple. I admire you. You've probably noticed that I'm not an ordinary person. Thirty people from the Yong'an Gang ambushed me, but they were no match for me. Do you know why?" Yang Yu said.

Su Qi looked at Yang Yu and agreed in his heart. He had been waiting here for over a month, looking for a chance to kill Smiling Tiger, but every time, Smiling Tiger had a few people around him, making it impossible to act.

Today, he saw Yang Yu attend the meeting alone and kill dozens of people from the Yong'an Gang, and he took the opportunity to avenge his sister when Smiling Tiger escaped.

Su Qi wasn't stupid; he was very smart. He knew that Yang Yu's martial skills were incredibly powerful, perhaps beyond his imagination. Otherwise, how could an ordinary person deal with thirty people?

"What do you want to say?" Su Qi asked in a low voice, wanting to know Yang Yu's final intention.

"Actually, I am the leader of the Huatian Sect in the martial world." Yang Yu's aura suddenly rose several times, "I see that you're a good person. Do you want to join the Huatian Sect? Your sister's death is a lesson. Only with powerful martial skills can you protect the people around you."

"Huatian Sect?" Su Qi was a bit stunned.

"That's right. The sect has countless resources, and the martial arts are profound. Flying over eaves and walking on walls, plucking flowers and picking leaves are all within reach. If you have powerful martial skills, you won't be bullied, and tragedies like your sister's won't happen again." Yang Yu said solemnly, "Moreover, your sister would definitely want you to live a good life. If you're willing to join, the Huatian Sect will be your second home."

Su Qi was silent.

After a moment, he looked at Yang Yu and said solemnly, "I don't understand martial arts, but you came to destroy the Yong'an Gang, so you must be a good person. I believe you."

"Good!" Yang Yu smiled.

"Meeting the leader!" Su Qi knelt on one knee and bowed to Yang Yu, showing the demeanor of a martial artist, which made Yang Yu even more pleased.

"Very good!" Yang Yu praised generously, "First, let's deal with the situation here, and then I'll teach you martial arts. The Huatian Sect needs disciples like you to carry on its legacy."

Afterward,

Yang Yu had Su Qi move Smiling Tiger's body into the Xuanwu Bar, then went to the third floor and pressed the confirmation button on the safe. Bundles of red bills appeared before him. Although Smiling Tiger was cunning, the password he gave Yang Yu was correct.

Counting the money carefully, it was twelve thousand more than the one million Smiling Tiger had mentioned, but it was all Yang Yu's now. After putting the money into a prepared bag, Yang Yu took Su Qi to the first floor.

"Smash all the alcohol and throw Smiling Tiger's body into the bar." Yang Yu ordered.

"Yes, leader!" Su Qi replied, then picked up a chair and started smashing.

The bar was full of alcohol, and Su Qi's wild smashing caused alcohol to splash everywhere—on the floor, counters, chairs, and decorations.

"Alright, let's go out first." Yang Yu said to Xiao Qi.

After Xiao Qi went out, Yang Yu lit the entire Xuanwu Bar with a lighter. The fire quickly spread uncontrollably, and Yang Yu had already taken Su Qi back to his residence.

"You can sleep in the living room tonight. I have a few clothes in my suitcase. See if they fit." Yang Yu said as he opened the suitcase.

"Leader, will the police find us?" Su Qi asked nervously.

"Probably not. The thieves won't dare to report it, and after a big fire, there won't be any evidence left." Yang Yu said, already finding the clothes.

Taking advantage of the night, Yang Yu first taught Su Qi the Luohan Fist.

Although it was just a basic boxing set, it was a great shock to Su Qi. Yang Yu was also generous and exchanged a Muscle Washing Pill for Su Qi, who immediately took it.

No longer paying attention to Su Qi, Yang Yu entered the leader's space.
