"Damn it, did you become deaf, didn't you hear me telling you to scram?" the burly man stared at Lin Chen, first in shock, then a fierce scowl spread across his face.

Lin Chen lifted his head and threw the bone on the table, saying, "Are you talking to me?"

"So your ears aren't deaf after all, now get lost quickly," the thug scoffed coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chen suddenly leapt up, rushing toward the burly man like lightning.

"Smack!"

A crisp slap echoed.

Zhu Tao and others had just walked out of the room when they heard the sound of the slap, their steps faltered, and they stared in shock into the VIP room.

The VIP room was dead silent, everyone staring in surprise at Lin Chen.

"Gulp!"

Zhu Tao swallowed hard, incredulously looking at Lin Chen. This guy had some nerve to actually hit that big thug!

The others were equally shocked. Did this guy have a death wish? How dare he slap that big thug in the face.

Lin Chen's gaze was icy as he looked at the man on the ground: "I hate being disturbed while eating the most, asking for a beating!"

"You dare hit me, bastard!" The big man, covering his swollen face, snarled.

"You dare hit me, kid you're done for, I'm going to break your hands and feet, you'll know the consequences of offending Brother Tiger!" The big man glared menacingly, speaking grimly.

Lin Chen looked at Brother Tiger, his lips slightly curving upward: "Slapping you was a favor, if you don't disappear immediately, then the words you just said will prove true on yourself."

"This guy is crazy!"

Everyone's expressions changed, and many shook their heads secretly.

"This kid is finished!"

"He's dead for sure!"

"These guys are all armed thugs, messing with them means even if not dead, one would end up crippled."

...

"Good, very good, brothers, teach this kid a lesson, let him know what's worse than death!" Brother Tiger snorted coldly, his eyes filled with icy menace.

At that moment, over a dozen thugs behind Brother Tiger closed in on Lin Chen like hungry wolves.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Xiaoxue shuddered with fear.

Li Meiying's expression turned even uglier as she rushed in front of Lin Chen.

"Do you people have no respect for the law, if you dare cause any more trouble, I'm calling the police!"

"Call the police!"

Brother Tiger sneered, "By the time the police arrive, your little boyfriend's hands and feet will have already been broken, but if you spend the night with brother, I might consider sparing his life."

Li Meiying glanced at Lin Chen, determination showing in her eyes: "Fine, I agree, but you must not hurt him."

Hearing her words, Brother Tiger paused, then burst into laughter: "Good, good, offering yourself to Brother Wu, he will be very pleased."

Lin Chen looked at the determined Li Meiying, his face showing a touch of tenderness: "Silly girl, why go through this!"

"Lin Chen, just go, don't worry about me!" Li Meiying said in agony.

"Go, haha, do you think I'm the type of person who would abandon his own woman?" Lin Chen said as he positioned Li Meiying behind him.

"Kid, you're asking for this, don't blame me." Seeing his good fortune messed up, Brother Tiger was furious.

"Attack, break his limbs for me!"

The dozen thugs, wielding machetes, charged forward.

One thug wielding his machete aimed a chop at Lin Chen's arm.

"Kid, even daring to provoke Brother Tiger, I will chop off this paw first!" The thug swung his machete, his face fierce.

Lin Chen's eyes slightly narrowed, he stood his ground and did not dodge, but reached out to grab the machete swinging towards him

"No, Lin Chen, dodge it!"

Seeing Lin Chen actually catch a knife with his bare hands, Li Meiying was terrified.

Although she knew Lin Chen knew martial arts, that was a sharp machete. To block it with his hand was like seeking death!

"Bang!"

The machete, carrying the sound of the wind, finally collided with Lin Chen's hand, but at that moment, everyone was stunned.

Lin Chen's hand, like a pair of iron tongs, grasped the machete.

"How is this possible!"

The thug's mouth hung open, his face filled with shock.

His machete had been sharpened, and although it couldn't slice through iron as if it were mud, cutting off Lin Chen's hand should have been a piece of cake.

But how could he possibly catch the blade bare-handed?

With the steel knife in his grip, Lin Chen's mouth curved into a slight smile, and with a fierce strength, he snapped the steel knife in half.

In the next instant, Lin Chen thrust the blade into the thug's thigh.

"Ah! My leg…"

The thug's leg was instantly soaked with fresh blood.

Watching his underling fall, Tiger Brother took a sharp breath. "Damn, we've run into a master."

But his face soon contorted viciously, "Get him all at once, kill this kid."

The dozen or so thugs, snapping out of their shock, charged at Lin Chen with the knives in their hands.

In an instant, Lin Chen was enveloped by the shadow of knives.

"Lin Chen!"

Watching Lin Chen swallowed by the shadow of knives, tears of regret welled up in Li Meiying's eyes.

It was all her fault. If she hadn't dragged Lin Chen to this gathering, he wouldn't have ended up clashing with these thugs.

But at that moment, a series of agonized screams suddenly emanated from the room.

Among the shadows of the knives, a figure moved like a specter. Every time he swung his knife, a thug would fall to the ground in response.

"Puchi, puchi…"

In a flash, blood splattered everywhere, screams echoed continuously, and within less than three minutes, all dozen men lay on the ground, each with a deep stab wound in their thigh.

Gushing blood flowed from their thighs like fountains, filling the air with a ghastly terror.

"This, how is this possible!"

Tiger Brother turned deathly pale, staring dazedly at his writhing underlings as they clutched their wounds on the ground.

Li Meiying, Zhu Tao, Zhang Xiaoxue, and everyone else were almost frightened out of their wits, shivering as they watched the horrifying scene unfold before them.

Who was this man, who had downed over a dozen knife-wielding thugs in such a short time?

The ferocity of Lin Chen's methods particularly astounded them, leaving a bloody hole in each of the dozen thugs' thighs.

Lin Chen, holding a blood-dripping dagger, his gaze icy, advanced toward Tiger Brother.

Drip, drip!

Blood drops fell to the ground, making Tiger Brother's face turn even paler, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

At this point, Tiger Brother was truly terrified. He had been in the underworld for many years and had seen many fierce figures, but he had never seen anyone as ruthless as Lin Chen—this was simply a devil!

"I warned you just now, told you to scram, but you didn't listen! So don't blame me for being merciless," Lin Chen said sternly, his gaze cold as he stared at Tiger Brother.

Tiger Brother took a couple of steps back. He wanted to run, but his legs wouldn't respond.

Just as Lin Chen was about to make his move, a voice suddenly rang out: "Brother, please show mercy!"

As the voice sounded, a figure rushed into the room in a flurry.

"Fifth Master!" Seeing the person arriving, Tiger Brother's face lit up with ecstatic relief.
