Hao Ren drove the car around for a bit thinking about how he should tackle this situation. After a few minutes, he parked his car at the gas station and got out of the vehicle. Steyn was still following him, and the man was blatant about it.
When Hao Ren looked at him, this guy did not avert his eyes and even flicked the former. Hao Ren smiled, and it was not one of those trademark sunny ones, but the one where he looked like a psychopath out for blood. Steyn was somewhat scared, then he shook it off like it was a bluff.
Hao Ren filled the tank to the top and got inside the car, and said, "Xiao Mei, I want the snake behind me to be crushed. Do you get the gist?"
A human and an AI discussed the situation for a few minutes before they arrived at a crossroads. Hao Ren stopped at the red light, and this place was so deserted that only he and the enemy in the car behind were standing. Suddenly, Hao Ren accelerated and made a dash for it. Steyn was surprised, and he instinctively reacted to chase.
Steyn thought Hao Ren was trying to run away, but no. Hao Ren was only luring him in a trap. From the other side of the crossroads, there was a sixteen-wheeler container truck was coming in at a high speed. This truck was a heavy load freighter, and Xiao Mei had been tracking the movement of this guy and made sure that it did not stop on any signals.
To maintain a clean traffic system inside the city, these heavy freighters were redirected to move around the city, and Hao Ren had directly led Steyn to the outside of the city. Steyn reacted instinctively, but all he saw was the glaring head lights. The next thing he sensed was a strong impact coursing through his body and the pain that sent him into oblivion.
Hao Ren raised his gaze and watched a dingy looking black car making contact with a mammoth of a truck which sent the former into the void flipping over a few times before crashing down on the ground.
Hao Ren did not stop what happened to the guy inside the car had nothing to do with him. He made his way back to the city and made a stop in a mall. He picked up some clothes for himself to make sure no one recognized him.
The young man changed into a black set of clothes and then left the place. He was going to hit the strong hold of the Jade Python Gang. These people operated from a place called the Cradle Bar and Pub. This place was where all sort of goons and thugs gathered, from what Xiao Mei found, Jade Python Gang was one of the biggest crime syndicates of the Jade Capital.
Not only did they operate in the shadows, they also had a few white collars under their thumb to control and earn money. Hao Ren parked the car far from the location and put his phone inside his pocket. He then walked around the block before he reached the Cradle Bar.
He looked at the place from a distance, he could not spot any normal person walking around, the place was filled with anarchists. Hao Ren was wearing a earphone, and Xiao Mei said, "Boss, this place has the highest crime rate in the city. From the data I have found, there are at least seventy people here."
Hao Ren replied while leaning against the wall, "It is good that they have so many people. I will have a good time."
Xiao Mei went silent, the place was a criminal den, but they were very updated, they had cctv and high speed internet. The AI had infiltrated the den, and found that these people did not have any hot weapons, like guns or something in their store. So, Hao Ren moved forward. Many of the goons watched him, but they did not come close to him, because Hao Ren walked with his head down.
Some people did not wish to create unnecessary trouble. These people did not say much and Hao Ren approached the door of the bar.
A burly man was standing before the gate, and said, "Yo, white boys are not allowed."
There were a few goons who chuckled at the scene. Hao Ren raised his head and the next moment, he directly punched the guy on his temple. The impact caused the guy to fall down on the ground and the people around the place froze.
Hao Ren pulled down the beanie and it turned into a mask. Then he moved around. The goons realized that he was attacking, and they were shocked, because even when a group of people surrounded him, they had no effect on him. Hao Ren was fighting like a machine and even the people who tried to grapple him suffered grievously.
Hao Ren's fighting ability was so strong that the people were now shivering in fear. Even if someone tried to run away, the young man made them freeze in their spots. Suddenly, there was a huge noise from the door, "Who dares to make trouble in the Jade Python Strong hold?"
Hao Ren looked at the bunch of men standing at the door and asked, "Don't you mean, the Jade Python hole? After all, no matter what, you guys are still snakes? Oh, that does not seem to be correct, you are a not snakes, more like worms."
The goons were surprised that not only this guy came to fight them, but he also insulted them. They yelled and charged at Hao Ren while cussing him. This was how brawls worked, no trash talk, direct beating. If you want to trash talk then go be a politician. Thugs respected the strong, and they did not care about any reason.
Hao Ren did not hold back his fists and gave the people a show to remember. Everyone he fought with could not stand on the ground after a couple of punches and sometimes even just one blow was enough.
After ten minutes, the entire street was filled with muffled groans. The people who bore the burnt of the attacks were laid out around him, twisting and turning on the ground. The ones who managed to avoid the attack were standing at attention like statues. Hao Ren smiled and said, "I will go inside the building, and when I come out, I want all of you here, and the streets cleaned.
Otherwise, I will find your picture and details from the CCTV, and chase you. Do not doubt it, I will break your bones with outmost joy. Hehehehahahahaha."
Hao Ren laughed like a maniac and his thrilled gaze sent a chill down the spine of these goons. He mumbled, "I really wish that someone among you does something so that I can hunt him down."
That said, he entered the building. A few of the thugs did not believe him, and ran away. However, some feared him a lot and began to drag the injured to the side and clean the road. Hao Ren moved quickly through the building, he began to beat up people left and right and did not even care about them at all.
He was ruthless, many people came at him with their knives, but Hao Ren snatched the weapons and stabbed them in return. Blood was spilled, Hao Ren did not come here for a walk, he meant business. When he had nothing, goons troubled him a lot. These people belonged to the type of insects that feared the strong and bullied the weak. Since he was now stronger, why can't he avenge himself?
In a glass surrounded room, Hao Ren stood up before a well groomed middle aged man. If someone did not know the notorious past of this man they would take him for a businessman. However, Xiao Mei had told him everything. Hao Ren had a deep breath and asked, "So, you are the notorious, Yan Ching."
The middle-aged man stood up from his chair and nodded as he asked, "I am, but I am curious, who are you? Or rather, who hired you?"
Hao Ren chuckled lightly and said, "You people think your enemies have their world revolving around you, but that is not the case. I came here out of my own free will."
Yan Ching asked with the pretense of interest, "Oh, so why have you graced my house with your presence?"
Hao Ren nodded as he replied, "You see, for the past few days, I am getting annoyed by the anarchy you and your bunch of pawns have spread around the city. So, I just wanted to avoid future troubles when I go about my business. So, I thought it would be better to come and have a face to face."
Yan Ching asked while taking off his coat, "What do you want to talk about?"
Hao Ren shook his head and said, "It is waste to talk to insects, so I am going use my fist to discuss with you."
Yan Ching nodded and replied, "My thoughts exactly."
The two people moved quickly. Hao Ren was surprised by the force displayed by his opponent. Yan Ching was moving almost as fast as him, but he could tell this guy was holding back. The fact was, even Hao Ren did not know how strong he had become over the past few months. His strength had increased to ten attribute points but he had never been able to exert that much of his force.
However, looking at Yan Ching before him, Hao Ren was excited, he clenched his fist tight and then he delivered a blow toward Yan Ching. The latter did not expect Hao Ren to have such skill, but what shocked him even more was the fact that while attacking, he could sense Hao Ren's aura change.
The two fists collided, and after a quick connection, Hao Ren retracted his punch. Yan Ching was surprised, then he grimaced, and finally, he let out a wail. The young man sighed and remarked, "I only used eighty percent of my strength, and to think this guy is so weak."
His words made Yan Ching tremble and forgetting about the pain in his mangled arm, he exclaimed, "Yellow Realm Expert."
Hao Ren was about to beat him when the man said something he did not understand, and he asked, "What do you mean by that? What realm expert?"
Yan Ching went down on his knees and said, "Senior, I apologize for not knowing your greatness. If you spare me, I am willing to transform into a new leaf. I will never do these shady businesses ever again."
Hao Ren shook his head and grabbed Yan Ching from his neck and asked, "What is a Yellow Realm Expert? Explain yourself you piece of shit."
Yan Ching was scared by the cold aura radiating from Hao Ren and said, "Sir, I do not know much, but when I was venturing in the world of martial arts I heard that when someone gains a body as strong as steel, they become yellow realm experts. I have touched upon the surface of this so called realm, that is why I could establish this gang."
Hao Ren furrowed his brows and threw away Yan Ching before he said, "Call your second in command."
Yan Ching looked at the door of the glass box, and said, "Hernandez, come in."
Hao Ren turned around and sighed before asking, "Which one is Hernandez?"
Yan Ching replied, "The one with the red shirt."
Hao Ren nodded and then he kicked Yan Ching in the head and knocked him out. Then he walked up to the guy in the red shirt and woke him up by pressing his acupressure points. Hernandez was still in shock and he peed himself when he saw Hao Ren before him.
The young man frowned behind his mask and said, "You will call the police, tell them everything that happened here, and you will surrender to them with all your cronies. Also, you will tell them about all your white collar partners, and your other hide outs. Do you understand?" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs NovelHub(.)net
Hernandez nodded like a chick pecking grain, and Hao Ren turned around to walk. He said, "If I found any of you outside the prison by tomorrow, I will come again, and this time, you will all die."
The masked Hao Ren became the horror of the Jade Python Gang. He did not act out of charity, he acted because a few of his enemies were involved with this bunch of tools. He was going to take them down with the crime.
