Chapter 704: Chapter 704

"Block him! Block him!"

Shen Huanian, who had suffered a few losses at the hands of Fang Bai, was already psychologically scarred. The sight of Fang Bai’s evil Qi-charged face approaching made him retreat while yelling furiously at his two bodyguards.

"Get out of the way!"

Upon seeing Fang Bai approaching, the two bodyguards reached out simultaneously, pushing viciously towards Fang Bai’s shoulders, hoping to push him away.

But in Fang Bai’s eyes, these Yellow Level Perfection martial artists were no different from shrimps and crabs, their strength not worth mentioning. With a quick reach forward, Fang Bai grabbed the outstretched arms of the two bodyguards, flinging them forward one after the other with great precision, each landing on the retreating Shen Huanian.

The two bodyguards were brawny men, each weighing nearly two hundred pounds. Shen Huanian, already floored by the first bodyguard, felt the heavy crash of the second one on top of him, immediately breaking two of his ribs and letting out a painful scream before fainting from the pain.

The two bodyguards, masculine and martial artists themselves, were rough and sturdy and thus uninjured. However, as they struggled to stand up from the ground, they no longer dared to lay a hand on Fang Bai, looking at him fearfully instead.

A true master reveals himself at the outset.

The two bodyguards had been swept away by Fang Bai in just one encounter, without any chance to resist, realizing that Fang Bai’s strength was far beyond their reach. To advance and attack again would only be to humiliate themselves.

While Shen Huanian had brought over a dozen strong men, the true threats among them were these two Yellow Level bodyguards. Seeing them toppled by Fang Bai with such ease, the rest were frightened into inaction.

"Niu Ben, go hit him!"

Fang Bai, pointing at Shen Huanian, instructed Niu Ben behind him, "Hit however you like, just don’t kill him! Don’t worry, if anything happens, your master will cover for you!"

Niu Ben, having been beaten up by several of Shen Huanian’s men earlier, was harboring anger. Although he knew Shen Huanian was a man with a significant background, reassured by his master’s words, he fearlessly rushed at Shen Huanian, fervently kicking and punching him.

Shen Huanian, a young scion of a wealthy family, was beaten until he rolled on the ground howling. His formerly refined, graceful demeanor was completely gone.

"Call... call the police... call the police..."

Seeing his men standing idly by, too scared to come to his aid, Shen Huanian was beside himself with anger, clutching his head and screaming.

Upon hearing Shen Huanian’s screams, his bodyguards finally reacted, with someone immediately taking out a cellphone and dialing the emergency number.

At the mention of "calling the police," Niu Ben became a bit frightened and stopped, taking a few steps back, looking at Fang Bai, uncertain what to do next.

Fang Bai asked with a smile.

Niu Ben nodded. Although he was a bit afraid after beating up Shen Huanian, his mood was considerably lightened.

Fang Bai patted Niu Ben on the shoulder and then walked towards Shen Huanian.

"What... what do you want to do?"

Shen Huanian, sitting on the ground disheveled and bloodied at the mouth, shuddered all over as Fang Bai squatted beside him, asking with a tremble in his voice.

Fang Bai patted his face and said in a low voice, "Honestly, I really want to kill you!"

Horrified, Shen Huanian frantically scrabbled backward on the ground, Continue reading more chapters on NovelHub for the best experience... my father is Shen Huanian, head of the Anxi Shen Family. If you touch me, our Shen Family won’t let you go!"

Fang Bai scoffed, responding disdainfully, "The Anxi Shen Family, how does it compare to the Yanjing Wang Family? Do you know how Wang Dong, son of Wang Jingzhong, head of the Wang Family, broke his legs?"

Shen Huanian trembled all over upon hearing the statement, his face showing immense fear and dread.

Wang Dong’s leg break incident, at the hands of Wang Huashan, the "Sea-Calming Divine Needle" of the Wang Family, had caused a sensation among some of the Prominent Clans in Huaxia. Shen Huanian had some understanding of the insider details and knew that it was because Wang Dong had provoked Fang Bai that he met such a fate.

Though the Shen Family was the number one clan in Anxi, its foundation and overall strength were still slightly weaker than the Wang Family of Yanjing. If even the Wang Family had to bow before Fang Bai, what was the Shen Family?

"His name is Niu Ben, he’s my disciple!"

Fang Bai pointed back at Niu Ben and said solemnly, "You hurt my disciple, I break your two legs. That’s fair, isn’t it?"

"No... no... please don’t... I’ll compensate... I’m willing to compensate for all his losses..."

Shen Huanian shook his head vigorously, his voice already breaking into a sob.

He was a typical playboy, not even thirty years old. If his legs were broken and he became disabled, how could he continue to seek pleasure and live a carefree life?

Fang Bai chuckled and said, "Compensate? Alright! Give me one billion, and I’ll just break one leg!"

Shen Huanian said, "I’ll give two billion, just let me go!"

Fang Bai shook his head and replied, "Either I break both your legs, or you give me one billion, and I break one. Those are your only two choices! I’ll give you ten seconds to think... ten... nine..."

Shen Huanian’s eyes turned bloodshot as he yelled hoarsely, "Fang Bai, if you dare to hurt me, just wait for the wrath of the Shen Family! Can you alone resist our entire family?"

Fang Bai ignored him and continued to count unhurriedly, "Eight... seven... six..."

"Fang Bai, I’ll give five billion, just let me go!"

Unmoved, Fang Bai kept counting, "Five... four... three..."

"Ten billion! I’ll give you ten billion! Just let me go!"

After Fang Bai said "one," a murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and his right hand slowly lifted, turning his gaze to Shen Huanian’s legs.

"Stop... I’ll give one billion... just leave me a leg..."

Shen Huanian was so frightened he was beside himself, tears and snot streaming down his face.

"That’s more like it... I’m waiting. Write the check!"

Fang Bai retracted his palm, smiling contentedly.

With teary eyes, Shen Huanian’s trembling hands took out his checkbook, filled out an amount of one billion, and signed his name.

Fang Bai took the check with a glance and casually stuffed it into his pocket, then swiftly tapped Shen Huanian’s left leg, quick as lightning.

Shen Huanian felt a numbness in his left leg, followed by a complete loss of sensation.

Although Fang Bai’s palm strike seemed calm, it had shattered the energy channels and blood vessels in Shen Huanian’s leg. His leg was now useless and beyond healing by anyone except Fang Bai, not even a deity could cure it.

Just then, the sound of police sirens approached, and a police car stopped on the open ground outside the crowd. Five or six fully armed officers jumped out of the car, and the one leading them was a beautiful, svelte policewoman with an imposing demeanor.

The spirits of Shen Huanian and his group of strong men lifted upon hearing the sirens, and they all turned their gaze towards the officers.

Blocked by Fang Bai’s body, Shen Huanian couldn’t see the approaching officers, but his courage grew significantly, and he shouted loudly, "Murder! Officers, save me!"
