Chapter 163 Things Have Escalated (3rd Update)

"Zhou Lang, you'd better not get involved in this. That Wang Dacheng and Xiao Keming are not people to be trifled with; their backgrounds are both very deep. Now that you've injured their people, it would be bad if they called the police and twisted the truth."

After Zhou Lang finished his call, Li Mengxue walked over. She was sharp and intelligent, knowing that it must have been Ivanova who contacted Zhou Lang, which is why he arrived in time.

She knew Zhou Lang was no ordinary person; otherwise, he wouldn't possess such high-level martial arts, nor would he make the big hoodlum Duan Wei so afraid. However, she still underestimated Zhou Lang's power. She felt that no matter how capable Zhou Lang was, he couldn't possibly go up against Xiao Keming, because Xiao Keming was the illegitimate son of Vice Mayor Yan Jialin.

Besides, she and Zhou Lang no longer had that kind of intimate relationship, and she didn't want to owe him too much. However, seeing him again, ripples stirred in her heart once more. She kept thinking, if only she had met Zhou Lang earlier, then she would have someone to rely on, and she wouldn't have to carry everything on her own like this.

"Don't worry. Since I called Xiao Keming here, I have a way to resolve this matter." Zhou Lang said quite confidently, "Have everyone go back inside. Xiao Keming will be here in a moment, and I will talk to him."

Seeing Zhou Lang's confident appearance, Li Mengxue couldn't say anything more. She had Cao Yanzhi take the employees inside, while she stayed with Ivanova to accompany Zhou Lang, waiting for Xiao Keming's arrival.

With the three of them together, Li Mengxue felt a little awkward because Zhou Lang's official girlfriend, Ivanova, was right there.

During the time she hadn't been in contact with Zhou Lang, her mood had been somewhat depressed, and she felt even lonelier. She tried her best to forget Zhou Lang, but in reality, she couldn't. Especially at night, once she lay in bed, she would recall the scenes of intimacy with Zhou Lang.

After experiencing the incident with Li Zhigang during her last blind date, she could no longer muster the courage to find another man. She felt she had so much to say to Zhou Lang, but she didn't know where to begin.

Ivanova, however, didn't feel awkward because she didn't know that Zhou Lang and Li Mengxue had once had such an intimate relationship.

Meanwhile, Big Head stood trembling on the spot, not daring to leave or move. As for his dozen or so subordinates, they were still lying on the ground, unable to get up, all of them groaning—what a miserable sight.

… Ten-plus minutes later, a harsh sound rang out, and three cars arrived at the front of Lovers Bar in a cloud of dust.

Soon, the twelve people from the three cars got out together and rushed toward the entrance of The Bar with Killing Intent. Walking at the very front was none other than the owner and head coach of Hurricane Boxing Gym, Xiao Keming.

Behind him followed World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei, Coach Wang, and others. Judging by their physiques and Aura, the people he brought were all coaches from the gym, and none of them were mediocre fighters.

"Boss, all our people were beaten by Zhou Lang. This kid is very arrogant; he told me to take my people and get lost. See how you want to teach this kid a lesson."

Seeing that Xiao Keming had arrived, Big Head hurried to Xiao Keming's side like a tail-wagging pug. Previously, he had been scared to death of Zhou Lang, but now that his backer had arrived, he became arrogant again.

Xiao Keming looked at the dozen or so subordinates on the ground who were groaning and unable to stand, his expression changing. He turned to Zhou Lang and said, "Zhou Lang, don't you think you're meddling a bit too much?"

"Your people attacked The Bar; how can you say I'm meddling?" Zhou Lang said. "Boss Li Mengxue is my friend. You need to give me some Face and promise me not to come here to cause trouble again, and tell Wang Dacheng to behave himself too."

"Give you Face? Last time at our gym, you made me lose a lot of Face. Why would I give you any?" Xiao Keming sneered.

"Not giving me Face is fine, but let me make this clear: if your people enter Lovers Bar again, I will beat them every time I see them. Furthermore, I will drop by your gym to hang out from time to time. If your gym can't stay open when that happens, you can't blame me."

Zhou Lang said. For scum like Xiao Keming, he had no need to be polite.

"Zhou Lang, last time I was indeed threatened by you, and my gym's business suffered a lot, but I won't give you the chance to go to my gym again."

Xiao Keming laughed arrogantly, "That time in front of the gym apprentices, it wouldn't have looked good for many to bully you alone, but it's different now. Today, I've brought the best fighters from the gym, specifically to cripple you. Once your hands and feet are broken, let's see how you can challenge my gym!"

As soon as he finished speaking, World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei and the others quickly surrounded Zhou Lang.

"Including you, that's only twelve. Last time I told you all to come at me together, but you were too obsessed with Face. Now, I'm still giving you this opportunity; I'm just afraid you don't have the ability."

Zhou Lang didn't take Xiao Keming and the others seriously at all, sneering as he spoke. He knew that by bringing so many people, Xiao Keming intended to have a falling out with him.

"Zhou Lang, you are too damn arrogant! We are all top-tier experts; the least of us has placed in provincial Muay Thai competitions. We have five national champions and two world champions. With over a dozen of us fighting you, even if you were the strongest in the Universe, we'd kill you!"

World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei was furious and took the lead, throwing a sweep kick at Zhou Lang. Last time at the gym, he was easily defeated by Zhou Lang and lost all Face, so he had long hated Zhou Lang to the bone.

As soon as World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei made a move, Coach Wang also lunged over. He had also lost to Zhou Lang last time, so his eyes were filled with the fire of hatred.

The others were not to be outdone and quickly closed in on Zhou Lang.

Seeing his men surround Zhou Lang, a wicked smile curled on the corner of Xiao Keming's mouth. In his view, Zhou Lang could not escape the fate of being crippled by him today.

"Everything can be discussed; don't fight."

Li Mengxue was worried about Zhou Lang and cried out delicately. She knew Zhou Lang could fight, but the opponents were all experts, and she was afraid something might really happen to him.

"Boss, don't worry. These twelve bastards aren't enough for Brother Lang to handle. We just need to step aside." Ivanova said, pulling Li Mengxue back.

In martial arts, speed is the only way to be invincible. Before World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei's sweep kick could even touch Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang had already struck first despite moving later.

Of course, he couldn't possibly use his most powerful skills, so he used a simple set of Internal Thirteen Forms to Face the enemy.

Although he only used the strength of his Physical Body and didn't use any True Qi, his power and speed were incomparable to World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei and the others.

In an instant, World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei was knocked flying, and immediately after, Coach Wang flew out.

The others didn't fare any better. Zhou Lang knocked one flying with every move, and every strike hit its mark. After eleven moves, everyone Xiao Keming brought was knocked to the ground.

Just like the small-time thugs before, they were all like piles of mud, lying on the ground unable to stand up. Each of them wore an expression of pain, appearing as if they were in great discomfort, which looked quite strange.

Li Mengxue's mouth formed an "O" shape. She hadn't expected Zhou Lang to be this powerful. As for Xiao Keming, he was stunned silly. He was a practitioner of martial arts himself, a Muay Thai expert, but he had never imagined that a person's martial arts could be cultivated to such a level.

Now he finally understood that even if he had a hundred World Muay Thai Champions like World Muay Thai Champion Wu Dewei under him, they wouldn't be a match for Zhou Lang.

As for "Big Head," his body was trembling; the guy had already wet his pants. A foul, pungent odor wafted from his crotch, which was so disgusting that Li Mengxue and Ivanova both pinched their noses.

"Xiao Keming, it's your turn." Zhou Lang slowly walked toward the shocked Xiao Keming and sneered, "Now you can only rely on yourself. You aren't still counting on that Big Head who wet his pants, are you?"

"You… don't come over. You injured my people; I'm going to call the police!" Xiao Keming was shocked.

"This is self-defense. You brought so many people to The Bar to cause trouble; even if the police want to arrest someone, they'll arrest you." Zhou Lang said coldly.

"Then you just wait and see."

Xiao Keming took out a mobile phone on the spot and started making a call: "Uncle Sun, my people were beaten at Lovers Bar. You need to bring people over immediately…"

Hearing Xiao Keming say this, Zhou Lang knew that he was calling the Feiyun City Municipal Police Bureau Chief, Police Chief Sun Yongkang.

He had already dealt with Police Chief Sun Yongkang twice. He felt that Police Chief Sun Yongkang was relatively fair and incorruptible, but because Xiao Keming's background was unusual, he didn't know how Police Chief Sun Yongkang would handle this matter.

Soon, Xiao Keming finished his call. He pointed at Zhou Lang and said, "Kid, do you know you're in big trouble? You've injured dozens of people; that's enough to get you a bullet!"

"It seems what you say doesn't count for much." Zhou Lang retorted sarcastically.

"You're going to be in serious trouble."

Xiao Keming said. Seeing that Zhou Lang didn't attack him, he relaxed. He felt that as long as Police Chief Sun Yongkang arrived with the police, Zhou Lang would be doomed. No matter how capable Zhou Lang was, he couldn't be more capable than those holding guns.

… The few of them just waited like that, and before long, the sound of sirens rang out outside The Bar.

Soon, dozens of armed police officers, led by Police Chief Sun Yongkang, rushed in.

"Uncle Sun, this kid is the one who injured them. Look, my men can't even stand up; they are all seriously injured. This is malicious assault; he must be severely punished."

He was the illegitimate son of Vice Mayor Yan Jialin; this was no secret in the official circles of Feiyun City. During holidays and festivals when government departments held gatherings, Vice Mayor Yan Jialin would even bring Xiao Keming along.

Therefore, Xiao Keming knew most of the officials in Feiyun City, which was the reason he was so arrogant and domineering in Feiyun City. He was familiar with every Police Chief and court president, and thus he acted lawlessly.

Police Chief Sun Yongkang looked in the direction of Xiao Keming's finger and was immediately startled because he saw Zhou Lang, and standing beside Zhou Lang was Li Mengxue, whom he had also met at the Linwu District Police Sub-bureau last time. He was an extremely sharp person and immediately guessed that Li Mengxue must be the owner of Lovers Bar, and that Xiao Keming must have had a conflict with her.

That time when Zhou Lang was arrested by the Linwu District Police Sub-bureau, Municipal Party Committee Secretary Lei Gang had personally called him to save the person. And last time, when two assassins wanted to kill Zhou Lang, Zhou Lang had actually been able to talk on the phone with people from the family of Governor Zhao Cang and mobilize the power of the Zhao family. Therefore, he knew that while Zhou Lang appeared to be just a college student on the surface, he actually had great influence and could not be offended lightly.
