Chapter 55

"Brat! If you dare to drive away the snakes again, I'll kill her—"

After a moment, Ande Sheng finally let out an angry roar. His roar echoed through the night sky, like that of a devil.

But in Ande Sheng's and the others' eyes, Qin Lang was an even more terrifying existence.

Because all the snakes and insects covering the mountains and fields were summoned by Qin Lang alone!

As long as Qin Lang gave the order, Ande Sheng and his group might be devoured by these snakes and insects, leaving not even bones behind.

Ande Sheng originally thought that in the wilderness of Qingyun Mountain, it would be easier for him to deal with Qin Lang. However, he did not expect that his carefully planned trap would instead give Qin Lang an advantage.

Qin Lang could drive away snakes, and in the wilderness, he naturally had a greater advantage; conversely, if it were in the city, where there were fewer snakes and insects, even if Qin Lang had such unique abilities, they would be of little use.

"It's your people who are blind and want to ambush me!"

Qin Lang snorted coldly, "Even if you succeed in ambushing me or kill me, as soon as I die, the snakes and insects on the mountain will eat you all! Don't think I'm bluffing; even if you have machine guns, you won't be able to get out of here!"

Hearing Qin Lang's words, the other gunmen quickly released their fingers from the triggers.

It was too terrifying!

If what Qin Lang said was true, once these snakes and insects went out of control and retaliated against them, no one would survive!

"Director Lu, how are you?" Qin Lang greeted Lu Jun, who was standing next to Ande Sheng.

Next to Lu Jun was Tao Ruoxiang, whose hands were cuffed, but she appeared relatively calm. In this situation, she did not want to distract Qin Lang.

At this moment, Tao Ruoxiang was filled with regret. If she had not trusted the police and her "senior brother" so much, she would not have been kidnapped and used as a hostage, thus becoming a burden to Qin Lang. After returning to school, Tao Ruoxiang received a call from Lu Jun, who told her that he had temporarily let Ande Sheng go due to pressure from his superiors. If Tao Ruoxiang had evidence, he was willing to investigate thoroughly, even sending the materials to the provincial public security bureau. Tao Ruoxiang believed Lu Jun again, and as a result, she was captured by Lu Jun as soon as she left the school.

Qin Lang looked at the current situation. Besides Ande Sheng and Lu Jun, the other side had Chen Gang and ten others, making a total of eleven people.

The number was not large, but they were all dangerous characters, and they had guns, which made them seem to have a sure victory. At least, that was what Ande Sheng and Lu Jun thought. Especially Lu Jun, who did not believe that anyone could fight against a dozen people with handguns bare-handed.

But—

Qin Lang could!

Because behind him were millions of snakes and venomous insects. He only needed to move his lips or snap his fingers to make Ande Sheng and his group die a miserable death.

Lu Jun did not respond, only snorted coldly, as the power of speech was still in Ande Sheng's hands.

"Brat—"

Although Ande Sheng hated Qin Lang to the bone, he had to admit that Qin Lang now had the conditions to negotiate with him. Suppressing his anger, he tried to recruit Qin Lang, "I, Ande Sheng, have been active in the underworld and business for decades. Today, I finally understand the saying 'the waves behind drive on those before'! Well, since you have the qualifications to negotiate with me, I'll be straightforward. I admire your abilities and means. What do you want? As long as I, Ande Sheng, can do it, I will give it to you!"

"I want something you can't give!" Qin Lang snorted coldly.

"I, Ande Sheng, am a well-known figure in Xiayang City. Tell me, what do you want!" Ande Sheng asked.

"I want you to lose everything!" Qin Lang answered.

"Do we have a blood feud?"

"No," Qin Lang said loudly, "Scoundrels, everyone has the right to punish them!"

"It seems there's no room for negotiation?" Ande Sheng said coldly, "So, are you prepared to sacrifice your teacher?"

"Qin Lang, it's fine! If I die, I die, but I can't let these scoundrels go unpunished!" Facing life and death, Tao Ruoxiang's will was very firm, which Qin Lang admired.

"Qin Lang, since there's no room for negotiation, are you willing to bet with me?" Ande Sheng suddenly spoke.

"Let's hear it."

"From the looks of it, you also know martial arts. Let's do this—no guns, and you can't drive away the snakes and insects. We'll settle this with our bare hands!" Ande Sheng proposed a way to break the deadlock.

"If I win, you let Teacher Tao go and surrender!" Qin Lang set the conditions.

"If you lose, you hand over all the evidence and take the woman with you. But you must swear never to interfere in my affairs again!"

Ande Sheng's conditions did not seem excessive, as he did not want to drive Qin Lang to the brink. However, Ande Sheng had other plans. If he could subdue Qin Lang in hand-to-hand combat, he might be able to force him to leave safely and then eliminate this troublemaker completely.

"Fine!" Qin Lang agreed.

Recently, his martial arts had improved, and he believed he could win against Ande Sheng and his group.

"I'll go!" A man shouted and charged at Qin Lang. This man was one of Lu Jun's subordinates, who usually enjoyed kickboxing and boxing and considered himself a hand-to-hand combat expert. He did not take Qin Lang, this "student," seriously. As he rushed to Qin Lang, he threw a full-force punch at his face.

Qin Lang remained motionless. His hair and clothes fluttered in the night wind, but he gave the impression of being as immovable as a mountain, like an old pine tree rooted on the mountaintop—no matter the wind and rain, he stood firm!

Just as the man's fist was about to hit his face, Qin Lang moved with lightning speed, striking the man's fist with a knife-hand.

Crack!

A terrible, crisp sound—this was the sound of bones breaking!

Lu Jun snorted coldly, thinking that Qin Lang had been hit by his subordinate's punch. He knew the strength of his subordinate's punch and believed that knocking out Qin Lang in one move would not be difficult. However, Lu Jun's smile soon froze as his subordinate was the one screaming in pain, clearly having his fist shattered by Qin Lang's knife-hand!

"Corrupt police!"

Qin Lang snorted coldly and struck the man's neck with another knife-hand, causing him to faint immediately.

"Good boy! I'll take you on!" Chen Gang, who had been holding back, charged forward.

The last time in the detention center, Chen Gang had lost to Qin Lang, which had become a laughingstock among the gang, making Chen Gang very unhappy. He had been looking for an opportunity to avenge his defeat. So, he had already taken a stimulant, gathered all his strength, and roared like a tiger as he pounced on Qin Lang.

He was originally a black-market boxer, and after taking the stimulant, he became even more ferocious, his punches generating a fierce wind. Tao Ruoxiang was secretly alarmed and worried about Qin Lang:

"The other side has many strong people. Can he handle it alone? Qin Lang, I'm sorry..."
