Dragon Hermit

“If a wrestling contestant can do whatever he wants, then what do we need police for?” Xia Yan sneered. He had been curbing his anger since he read the material sent by Dong Quan and he wasn’t any different from a barrel of gunpowder that might explode at any moment. He had come to Music Plaza to relax, but he hadn’t been able to vent his anger yet and he planned to vent his anger on these three foreigners.

“Well said!” Zhao Qiang and Qin Jian cheered for him. Zhao Qiang said, “Take a look at the surroundings, there are a dozen phones filming us, and if you dare to assault us, you will end in China’s prison.”

“You…” The three foreigners were dumbfounded. There were many people in the vicinity watching them and most of them lifted their phones and filmed them. They all wished for this quarrel to get out of hand!

The anger of the men from Haidong and Nanyu died down and they looked at the Caucasian man.

Xia Yan’s gaze turned grave. This Caucasian’s skin was quite fair, as if he had never bathed in the sun and it could be discerned with a glance that he was the foreigners’ leader.

The Caucasian man looked at the phones filming them in the vicinity and furrowed his brows. He didn’t dare to assault people in front of a large crowd.

“Let’s leave,” the Caucasian man said. The men from Donghai and Nanyu weren’t willing to accept this, but they still obeyed him and left.

At this moment, Xia Yan raised his brows. He detected faint fluctuations of an unknown force.

After the Caucasian man turned around, he shot some black gas that couldn’t be seen by ordinary people toward the three girls with a snap of his right hand’s fingers.

This Caucasian man was unexpectedly no ordinary person!

“Be careful!” Xia Yan had no inkling about the real nature of the black wisps of gas, but he still knew that they were surely anything but good. He shouted in a low voice and strode forward and protected the girls behind him.

“Huh?” The Caucasian man cried out in surprise and he snapped his fingers again. The three wisps of black gas wound around Xia Yan and struck the girls’ clothes and disappeared in them.

“What have you done?” Xia Yan was astounded and he quickly turned around to observe the girls, and he found out that they just wore a confused look and were all alright.

“Xia Yan, what’s wrong?” An Xiaoru asked in confusion.

“Stay here, I’ll go catch them.” When Xia Yan took another look at the foreigners, he found out that they had squeezed their way out of the crowd, and he couldn’t help but get anxious. It didn’t matter what those wisps of gas were. As long as he could catch the Caucasian man, he would get it out of him. He mustn’t allow him to get away!

“Get out of the way!” Xia Yan rushed into the crowd and pushed aside anyone in the way. Upon seeing this, Zhao Qiang quickly followed him and instructed Qin Jian; “Stay here and protect the girls.”

The foreigners had just disappeared at the edge of the plaza and Xia Yan chased after them without any hesitation, but when he had just turned a corner, he found himself face to face with a kick and a punch and he quickly tried to dodge them, while protecting his face with both arms.

Xia Yan’s left arm got kicked heavily, while his right arm got punched. At this moment, his great force didn’t help him at all and he was sent flying by a whole meter by the assailants’ great power.

If his body wasn’t very robust, his arms would have been broken.

The assailants hiding in the corner who assaulted him were the two fellas participating in the four nations’ wrestling tournament. They were both professionals and their all-out strike power was quite terrifying. If it was an ordinary person in his stead, then he would have been turned into a vegetable by such a heavy strike on the head.

Upon looking ahead, he saw the Caucasian man standing ten meters from him. The latter just gave Xia Yan a vile smile and waved his hand at him before getting in a taxi and slipping away.

“F*ck!” Xia Yan felt very anxious and powerless, and he could only look on angrily at the two people blocking the road.

“You have quick reflexes and a strong body,” The man from Donghai gave him a thumbs up and praised him.

“No kidding, our master has already left and we have accomplished our mission. Let’s leave,” The man from Nanyu said. It was he who had launched a swift kick.

“Don’t even dream about leaving,” Xia Yan swung his hands. He felt a faint stab of pain from his arms, but it didn’t affect him much, and he wouldn’t allow these people to get away.

“Lad, you can’t stop us. Haha!” The man from Donghai laughed heartily and exchanged a glance with the man from Nanyu. Thereafter, they separated and ran in different directions.

Xia Yan hesitated for a moment before he decided to pursue the man from Nanyu. It could be discerned from their former conversation that this man had a higher status than the other and he could get more info from him.

“Xia Yan!” Zhao Qiang had just rushed over, and Xia Yan just waved his hand at him and said, “Go back to school and wait for me there, I’ll be back in a short while.

“Hey, don’t leave me out of fights!” Zhao Qiang shouted. He couldn’t overtake Xia Yan, so he just mulled this over for a moment and decided to run after the man from Donghai.

Nanyu’s man was very swift, but Xia Yan still managed to pursue him closely and they quickly left the plaza far behind them. All of a sudden, the man turned around and rushed into a narrow alley.

This was a road between two districts and it was surrounded by walls. But, there were some open back doors in those walls and dim yellow light emanated from them. There were many street girls wearing heavy makeup standing at the doors, and most men walking down this road were all poor losers.

There weren’t any surveillance cameras here and police wouldn’t ever patrol this street, but Xia Yan had still entered this alley without stopping for a moment.

In the depths of the alley, the man from Nanyu came to a stop and turned around. He stood under the dim street lamp.

It could be discerned from his current behavior at this place that he planned to deal with Xia Yan in this remote alley.

He might deal with him through knocking him out, injuring him, or ending his…

In the face of Nanyu’s man, ordinary people might cower, but Xia Yan was no ordinary man. He just slowed down and chanted the Vampiric Curse in a low voice while walking down toward the man from Nanyu. Those foreigners were dangerous and the wisps of black gas were very suspicious and he must get to the bottom of this affair.

Those three foreigners were all dangerous. When the Caucasian man shot the black gas, Xia Yan detected an eerie and dark aura of death. If he took them lightly, he might meet his maker here.

Xia Yan quickly finished chanting the Vampiric Curse and he cast it upon himself. He felt great power flowing into his body and he instantly felt a lot safer.

“Since you dared to come over, then I will have a taste of you, hehe…” The man from Nanyu glared at Xia Yan and grinned. Under the dim light, his teeth and skin looked quite pale and terrifying.

“Who are you, and why are you harassing my friends?” Xia Yan strode forward and asked in a loud voice.

The street girls on both sides of the alley looked over at them curiously and fearlessly. These kinds of fights added some entertainment to their depraved and tragic lives.

A dim alley, superpowers, hookers, as well as a mysterious villain. All of a sudden, Xia Yan felt like he became one of the dark heroes portrayed in American cartoons.
