Chapter 163 - The Power of a Punch
Jiang Hao regarded Sun Qi with an icy stare and spoke in a cold voice.
“I don't want anything!”
“Think you can just come and go as you please? It's not that simple!”
“Take a punch from me, and I'll let you go.”
“Otherwise…”
Jiang Hao trailed off, but the unspoken threat sent a shiver through Sun Qi's heart.
At that moment, Sun Qi's face darkened even further.
He was well aware that taking a punch from Jiang Hao was no small feat.
The punch he had witnessed earlier said it all.
Yet, when he glanced at the pair of chopsticks beside him, half buried in the iron door and the other half still quivering, a deep fear flickered in his eyes.
There was no escape.
Feeling cornered, Sun Qi turned back to face Jiang Hao, clenched his teeth, and declared with determination,
“Fine!”
He then stepped forward, squaring off against Jiang Hao.
“Bring it on!”
Jiang Hao, seeing his resolve, wasted no words.
He advanced with a single stride, his punch cutting through the air with ferocious power, aiming straight for the kill.
Before the onlookers could even blink, his fist was upon Sun Qi!
Instinctively, Sun Qi raised his arms to shield his chest, bracing for the impact of Jiang Hao's formidable punch.
But in the very next moment, the sickening sound of breaking bones filled the air.
“Crack!”
“AAAH!”
A scream of agony escaped Sun Qi as his face contorted with fear and pain.
He was hurled backward, crashing into the door with such force that he left a deep dent before collapsing to the ground.
The crowd inhaled sharply, witnessing Jiang Hao's devastating punch for the second time.
Yet, the sheer power behind it remained beyond belief.
Jiang Hao's voice then floated coolly across the space,
“Take your men and scram!”
Sun Qi's underling, pale with terror, tore his gaze from Jiang Hao and rushed to Sun Qi's side.
“Boss! Boss!”
Sun Qi's arms hung limply, his forehead slick with sweat. With his underling's help, he staggered to his feet.
He gave Jiang Hao a long, piercing look, as if to etch his image permanently into his memory.
“Let's go!”
He directed that comment at his underling!
He was too clever to utter any harsh threats at a time like this!
Realizing what was happening, his underling quickly opened the door, helped Sun Qi up, and they all fled in a panic!
They couldn't bear to stay a moment longer!
But as they were crossing the threshold, Jiang Hao's voice rang out once more.
“Oh! And one more thing, settle up before you go. Whatever you owe, make sure it's paid in full!”
Upon hearing this, rage blazed in Sun Qi's eyes!
Damn it, not only did I come up empty-handed today and take a beating, but now I'm being extorted!
This is beyond outrageous!
……
But given the circumstances, he had no choice but to swallow his pride, even if it felt like chewing on broken glass.
“Fine!”
He practically hissed the word through clenched teeth!
……
No sooner had Sun Qi departed than Lee Xuan, who had been knocked down by Sun Qi, was petrified by Jiang Hao's relentless tactics.
Even Sun Qi, whom he had unwavering faith in, couldn't withstand a single punch from Jiang Hao!
And that move earlier, akin to the mythical ‘Flying Flower Twisting Leaves' technique, left him utterly astounded!
By now, he was well aware that Jiang Hao was way out of his league!
So, after Sun Qi had gone, he seized the chance to sneak towards the door while everyone else was distracted.
“Whoosh!”
Just then, a chopstick suddenly thrust into the ground right in front of him, burying a third of its length into the earth!
