Without giving me any chance, before her words had even fully fallen, Luo Qiyun had already retreated into the crowd.
After Luo Qiyun made this move, I knew… blood would likely be shed tonight!
When people from the Thousand Doors engage in a brawl, they aren't like the street thugs from society who must personally get involved, eager to be the first to charge ahead.
This is because the hands of a con artist are very precious.
Especially for a female con artist like Luo Qiyun, who is beautiful, has a great figure, and also has beautiful hands, she would never act unless absolutely necessary.
Of course, the prerequisite here is that Luo Qiyun must know martial arts.
So, what I, Cheng Minglang, and Han Jinlun had to face next was akin to the problem of clearing out minor mobs before facing a boss.
While dealing with the mobs, we had to protect ourselves as much as possible, and absolutely avoid losing too much health.
Otherwise, before the boss even appeared, we would be unable to withstand it and would be defeated!
...
Before Luo Qiyun's people could fully set up their formation, I directly exchanged glances with Cheng Minglang and Han Jinlun.
The very next second, the three of us moved!
Han Jinlun charged to the left, I charged to the right. As for Cheng Minglang, he went straight for Luo Qiyun in the middle!
Capture the leader first to subdue the followers!
I refused to believe that if Luo Qiyun were restrained, she would still disregard her own safety and continue to let her subordinates attack us?
If she couldn't get back the five million, she couldn't report back to her boss?
Get that bullshit out of here!
In the face of personal life and death, trivial matters like reporting to the boss would be pushed aside!
With years of tacit understanding, without any hesitation or pause, the three of us acted decisively!
Blocking our escape route from the right was a Wuling Hongguang minivan.
Although I hadn't counted how many people were in the car, upon seeing me run towards the right, the driver of the Wuling Hongguang immediately started the engine and sped towards me!
Originally, I was wondering how to escape without injury, given that Luo Qiyun was keeping to herself.
Upon seeing this car charge at me, I immediately had an idea.
Just as the Wuling Hongguang was about to perform a sharp brake and drift, I leaped forward and moved to the left side of the car.
I yanked open the driver's side door, and before I could make any further moves, the bald driver pulled out a dagger flashing with cold light and lunged at me.
Judging by his posture, I knew the bald man was a driver for a black car.
Because only black car drivers always carried knives!
Their knives were not for self-defense.
It seemed Luo Qiyun had made thorough preparations for tonight's gambling match.
Whether it was a win or a loss, with Luo Qiyun's money paving the way, people from all walks of life had emerged!
Seeing me open the car door, the bald driver sneered, gripped his dagger, and thrust it forward without hesitation!
Damn it! You're really ruthless!
I only wanted your car, and you actually want to take my life?!
With that thought, as I dodged the fatal blow, I pulled out a steel plate from my pocket.
With a flash of cold light, I used the steel plate to swipe at the bald man's right hand holding the knife!
"Ah!!!"
As a miserable howl erupted, blood spurted from the bald man's right wrist.
The intense pain caused the small knife in his hand to fall to the ground instantly.
Before the bald man could react, I grabbed his right arm and yanked it hard.
After pulling him off the driver's seat, I pressed his shiny bald head firmly against the car door.
With a bang, the bald man's eyes went dark, and his entire body collapsed to the ground.
Damn it!
If killing wasn't illegal, you'd be a corpse right now!
Just as I was about to drive the others out of the car, the rear door suddenly opened.
I had expected that after witnessing the bloody scene just now, the people inside would obediently get out and flee.
But to my surprise, the person who jumped out of the car lunged at me without a word!
Not many people get bloodthirsty.
In a society governed by law, most people's minds clear up instantly after seeing blood in a fight.
They either stop fighting or run.
Those who continue to fight after seeing blood are either drug addicts high on their substances or those who have shed blood before!
It seemed the people the black car driver had brought were not ordinary folk from all walks of life!
But no matter what these ghosts and monsters were doing, since they dared to attack me again, I would definitely eliminate them completely!
Relying on my con artist's instincts, I dodged their physical charge with the fastest reaction, and then used a side kick taught to me by Cheng Minglang, aiming directly for the most vulnerable part of their neck, and kicked hard!
Bang!
As a muffled sound echoed, the person who wanted to avenge the bald man struggled and fell to the ground, motionless.
At this moment, with the sound of doors being pulled open, the remaining few people all jumped out of the car in a rush.
Leading the charge was a tall, thin man wearing a baseball cap and mask, holding a machete.
After jumping out of the car, the tall, thin man ignored the others and charged directly at me with the machete.
His posture was as if he wanted to split me in half!
Seeing the opponent's aggressive demeanor and professional skill, I immediately became vigilant.
As I retreated and dodged to the side, I tentatively threw a punch towards his face.
The intention of this punch was to test the opponent's strength.
I don't know if my martial arts had improved incredibly fast under Cheng Minglang's guidance, or if the opponent was just a paper tiger, strong on the outside but weak within…
In any case, after missing with his sword, he didn't dodge my fist as I expected.
Instead, after being hit in the jaw by my punch, this fellow stumbled and tripped to the ground.
And then, there was no more…
A flurry of activity like a tiger, but only five units of combat power!
A weakling, identified.
Seeing that the others were also charging at me, a cold glint flashed in my eyes, and I raised the steel plate in my hand.
"You're all just doing this for money, so that's enough! Don't earn the money and then lose your lives in the end!"
My chilling words, accompanied by the blood-dripping steel plate, indeed had an effect.
The next second, these people froze in place, their eyes flashing with uncertainty.
Ultimately, fear and reverence conquered everything.
The remaining few people did not dare to take another step!
Seeing this, I no longer paid attention to them and instead leaped into the driver's seat.
After starting the car, I floored the accelerator and charged towards the crowd ahead, preparing to pick up Cheng Minglang and Han Jinlun to safety…
