The wind from his fist whistled, and it was full of strength.
The fist was already in front of Xu Wenping and was about to hit his face.
Xu Wenping smiled faintly.
When he smiled, everyone saw it.
In the next moment, he stretched out a hand.
He opened his palm and easily blocked the fist.
Under everyone’s shocked gazes, the fist and palm collided without making any sound.
The two of them stood there calmly.
In the beginning, people thought that they might have been seeing things.
However, for the next three seconds, neither of them moved. They just stood there. Only then did people know that they were in a stalemate.
“Brat…”
This was what the old man said after the first second.
However, he didn’t say anything for the next two seconds.
Then, his expression changed.
His face was originally still red, but after two seconds, his face suddenly turned into a pig’s liver color.
Three seconds later, the old man’s body suddenly quivered and he retreated.
“Ah!”
With a scream, his body was sent flying backward.
Especially his arm. When he was thrown back, the sound of bones breaking came from his arm.
Kacha!
The sound was very crisp, and the private room quieted down.
The voice became clearer and clearer.
The screams behind them made one’s hair stand on end.
The visual impact was very strong, especially when Xu Wenping was still standing there. It seemed that he didn’t use much strength at all, and the old man was sent flying.
What kind of method was this? What kind of martial arts was it to be able to do this?
“What?”
Young Master Jin, who was standing there, widened his eyes and his body could not help but tremble.
He came from the Provincial Capital, so he naturally brought along some experts.
This old man was his trump card.
Just now, the old man went out.
When he came back, he saw Xu Wenping coming, so he ambushed him from behind.
Initially, Young Master Jin thought that he would succeed in one strike.
However, he did not expect Xu Wenping to dodge.
Even so, Young Master Jin did not expect Xu Wenping’s martial arts to be higher than the old man.
Based on his understanding of the old man, not to mention a young man like Xu Wenping, even an old and powerful martial master would not be a match for the old man.
However…
The current situation had overturned his understanding.
Xu Wenping clapped his hands and turned to look at Young Master Jin with a faint smile on his lips.
“How is it? If there are any other trump cards, you can show them all.”
Young Master Jin’s face turned pale. His lips trembled as he stepped back and said, “No, don’t come over. You, you can’t touch me. Do you know who I am?”
“Yes, I’ve asked around. Your surname is Jin, and 1 heard that you’re from the Provincial Capital. Your family is considered a second-rate or third-rate family, right?”
Xu Wenping casually took a step forward and spoke indifferently.
Hearing his words, a proud expression flashed across Young Master Jin’s face.
“Since you know, you still dare to touch me?”
His eyes flickered and he said, “I see that your skills are not bad. How about this? Kneel down and admit your mistake immediately. Then, follow me from now on. How much money do you want? We can discuss it. For example, I can give you a salary of 1 million yuan a month.”
Young Master Jin wasn’t stupid. Since he couldn’t use force, he might as well use soft tactics.
If he could subdue someone like Xu Wenping, it would be a very good thing.
He could tell that Xu Wenping’s martial arts were definitely much more powerful than those experts in the family.
“1 million? Isn’t that too little?”
Xu Wenping shook his head slightly, indicating that it was not enough.
“Oh? Too little? That’s not a problem. How about this? I’ll give you a monthly salary of 3 million yuan. That’s not too little, right?”
3 million a month meant tens of millions a year.
This kind of salary was definitely a lot.
When the people around him heard his words, they could not help but reveal envious looks on their faces.
They were quite wealthy, but they were unwilling to give others such a high salary.
“Not interested.”
Xu Wenping shook his head, still looking disgusted.
“Then… Then how much do you want?”
Gritting his teeth, Young Master Jin’s expression was pained.
“As long as you say it and I can reach it, I’ll give it to you. How about it?”
He was also going all out and directly let Xu Wenping name his own price.
Xu Wenping smiled. He extended a finger and said, “I want this number.”
10 million?”
Young Master Jin frowned deeply, but he thought about it again, then slapped his thigh and said, “Alright, as long as you agree, I’ll do my best.”
This was his limit. If he exceeded this number, then it really wouldn’t work.
“No, I mean, 10 billion a month.”
“What?”
“Yes, it’s 10 billion. If not, forget it.”
“Are you playing with me?”
Young Master Jin was furious. He pointed at Xu Wenping and shouted, “1 only gave you such a price because I treat you as a person. You actually don’t know what’s good for you.”
“Let me tell you, if our Jin family makes a move, no matter how good your martial arts are, it’s useless, understand?”
“You can try.”
Xu Wenping grinned and took another step forward.
He walked very slowly, but his imposing manner pressed down on Young Master Jin, causing him to tremble again.
“Don’t come over, don’t come over… I, I…”
He had already retreated to the corner of the wall, and his face had become even paler.
“I just, I just want your woman. You, do you have to… Do you have to find trouble with me?”
“Haha! You also know that she’s my woman, yet you still dare to have designs on her.”
Xu Wenping’s face turned cold as he said, “That’s my reverse scale. Anyone who touches it will either die or be injured.”
As he spoke, he had already stretched out his hand.
He wanted to capture Young Master Jin and bring him out.
He had never thought of killing the other party, but at least he wanted to teach him a lesson.
“Stop!”
Just as Xu Wenping’s palm was about to touch Young Master Jin, a clear male voice suddenly came from behind him.
His hand paused in mid-air. Then, he saw the joy on Young Master Jin’s face again. He could not help but turn around indifferently.
There were a few people standing at the door of the VIP room.
The leader was a young man who was about 23 or 24 years old.
He was wearing a white suit and looked very dashing.
There were four middle-aged men standing behind him.
These four middle-aged men were all wearing long robes, and judging from their auras, they were definitely not ordinary people.
In Xu Wenping’s eyes, these four people were definitely comparable to the old man just now.
These four people appeared behind the young man at the same time.
One could imagine that this young man’s identity was definitely not simple.
“What’s the matter?” Xu Wenping said calmly. He still had a faint smile on his face.
“This is Riches Manor. Fighting is not allowed here.”
The young man looked at Xu Wenping’s smile, and his expression was very cold. He said word byword.
“Oh?”
He looked at the few people lying on the ground, including the old man who had just fallen.
“They hit me, so 1 can only endure it?”
“You can dodge, but you can’t attack.”
The young man nodded, indicating that what Xu Wenping said made sense.
“Haha!”
Xu Wenping smiled at this answer.
“What are you laughing at? Is there something funny?”
The young man was still very cold. His eyes were fixed on Xu Wenping’s face.
Ever since he saw Xu Wenping, he felt a little awkward. As for why, he couldn’t tell.
“Nothing. I just think that the rules here are interesting.”
“What’s interesting?”
“You can’t fight back when you’re beaten. This principle is really interesting.”
“I told you, you can’t fight here.”
“Then what about them hitting me?”
“That was their mistake.”
“Then punish them!”
I’m talking about you now. Don’t change the topic.”
“I don’t think I did anything wrong, and I have rules.”
“What rules?”
“If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. If people offend me, I will definitely offend them.”
So?
So if you stop me from taking Young Master Jin away, you might become my enemy.”
At this point, the young man’s face finally became angry again.
“You’re the first one to come to Riches Manor to cause trouble in these years. You’re really courting death.”
As he spoke, he waved his hand and shouted, “Catch him.”
“Yes, Fourth Young Master.”
Almost at the same time, the four middle-aged men behind the young man rushed out and surrounded Xu Wenping in the middle.
Kid, if you know what’s good for you, let us tie you up immediately. Otherwise, you’ll suffer.”
A tall middle-aged man sneered.
“Don’t think that you were able to defeat that old man just now. That was just your luck,” another plump man said with a smile.
Cut the crap and do it.”
Xu Wenping was a little impatient. He turned around and disappeared from where he was.
“What?”
“What movement technique is this?”
The four of them exclaimed almost at the same time and then got into a stance.
They wanted to block Xu Wenping’s attack, but just as they got into position, Xu Wenping flashed past them.
This time, he didn’t plan to fight head-on. Instead, he simply used his movement technique and struck the acupoints of four people while flashing past them.
When Xu Wenping appeared again, the four of them were standing there like statues.
“This, this…”
The young man who saw this scene immediately widened his eyes and mouth, stunned on the spot.
“Demonic technique, this is a demonic technique.. It definitely is…”
