CHAPTER 1016: CHAPTER 1002: ALL-OUT BRAWL

And that man was in so much pain that it was beyond description. You should know, his leap wasn’t supposed to be that dramatic, but Su Xuan casually turned and tripped him quickly, sending his massive two-hundred-jin body flying and crashing into the handicrafts, smashing them to pieces with a loud crash.

His body instantly felt a surge of pain, so intense that several times he almost fainted.

"Big brother, why is this kid so slippery!?"

At this moment, only two men remained: one was the boss, and the other was the henchman. The shop was already a complete mess, with everything scattered all over. If they thought it was coincidence at first, at this point, they’d hardly believe it was coincidental.

"Did this kid train in something?!"

The boss was shocked, thinking to himself, damn it, today was a big loss. Though the stuff in the shop wasn’t very valuable, it was worth tens of thousands, and now that kid destroyed everything. It’s a double loss.

"Who cares if he trained or not, kung fu is afraid of the kitchen knife, big brother. Use the knife!"

At this moment, the little brother got fierce, tossing a steel knife to the boss, while he picked up a kitchen knife with a murderous aura, though the boss seemed a bit scared. After all, this was just extortion, but if it got serious, he could end up in jail.

"Kid, pay me, and I’ll let you off. I’m not bullying you; you hurt my two guys, and with my stuff, just pay fifty thousand yuan. How about it?"

The boss seemed hesitant. To be honest, in such a situation, trying to act tough was useless. Killing someone would not end well for him and wasn’t worth it.

"Sure, my Golden Rat was bought overseas, and the airfare cost twenty-five thousand. The rat itself was twenty thousand each, that’s forty-five thousand, plus two eggs for ten thousand total, fifty-five thousand. You give me five thousand, and hey, I’m kind-hearted, waive the labor fee. I’ll consider myself unlucky."

Su Xuan seemed indifferent, and when he finished speaking, the boss was infuriated. Internally, he thought, who wouldn’t know you’re bluffing with that smelly rat. I can catch a bunch for you in the street, and yet you dare to ask for twenty thousand. Even if I’m extorting, it’s not like this.

"Brother, don’t push it, making a big deal out of this is bad for everyone."

The boss said gloomily, then after thinking a bit more, added.

"How about this, pay me ten thousand for the cost of the items, and I’ll let my brothers’ injuries go!"

The boss gritted his teeth, feeling extremely frustrated and angry. Honestly, he never expected Su Xuan to be such a pain, being able to play so well.

"Boss, since you’re being reasonable, I’m a person with a heart, so I won’t charge you for my flights or the golden eggs. I’ll give you a thirty percent discount on the rat, fourteen thousand, offset against yours, give me four thousand. I’m being very generous here, really. I feel like I’m Lei Feng, such a great guy. I’m so impressed with myself. I’m so handsome, yet so kind-hearted, truly perfect, I’m falling in love with myself."

There’s no denying, Su Xuan’s narcissism reached a ridiculous level. He’s the only one who could shamelessly make such claims, while Li Qingxue nearby felt both inspired and amused. Initially, he was worried about Su Xuan; the opponents seemed quite strong. For this type of person, he even considered getting his card out to pay. With robbers like this, what else can you do?

At most, report it later, but chances are they’d be gone by then, leaving him frustrated. But surprisingly, Su Xuan dodged continuously, avoiding their blows, and smashed all their extortion tools to pieces.

However, seeing the two take out knives, Li Qingxue was quite nervous. If something went wrong, what then? You can earn back lost money, but if you lose your life, there’s truly nothing left.

Li Qingxue felt himself not the kind to hold out stubbornly. Many tend to stubbornly resist, like a fool he’d heard about, who, when withdrawing cash from an ATM, was robbed by an armed thief. The thief only wanted two thousand, yet the fool refused even a word, daring the thief to kill him, though the thief still had some sense, reducing the demand to a thousand.

Still, that woman was utterly foolish, challenging the thief again to kill her. In the end, the thief shot her, sending her to the Western Heaven to meet the Tathagata.

Though justice was served in the end, frankly, what does it matter, once you’re dead, there’s nothing left. Death can’t be reversed, and what if memorials are offered, is there really a spirit? Who knows, it might be a fool’s errand.

So at this moment, Li Qingxue hoped Su Xuan wouldn’t act rashly. Even losing tens of thousands was okay, that could be regained, but losing a life was truly not worth it.

"Su Xuan, let’s leave it, pay up and go. I’ll cover it, I have money!"

Li Qingxue said softly, deeply worried Su Xuan might get stabbed. But Su Xuan smiled lightly, understanding Li Qingxue’s concern. In fact, Su Xuan believed one should be cautious when trying to act tough; make sure you’re safe. Otherwise, it’s too costly to put on airs, not worth it.

Su Xuan acted tough because he truly had the ability. These petty thugs, he could cripple them with a flick of the finger. So to him, since they liked fishing, he’d fish with them, letting them understand how fun it could be.

Su Xuan always did things this way: if you’re a good person and do something good, he’d help you do it better.
