Roar of the Tiger!
A large amount of air sliced through the gaps between fingers, carrying a clear whistling sound, as if a fierce tiger extending its claws to pounce on its prey.
Gu Yuan stared intently at the moves of the burly figure, as if he could truly feel a mighty tiger fiercely extending its formidable claws towards the prey's neck.
The skin of the wild wolf clearly sensed a strong gust of wind approaching, striking its neck. It endured the dazed feeling from the tiger's roar, and the muscle memory, honed by long-term defense against surprise attacks, kicked in.
The body suddenly recoiled backward, forming an inverted U-shape. However, the burly figure had clearly anticipated the wild wolf's movement. His hand changed its motion, the claw transforming into a fist, which slammed fiercely towards the wild wolf's waist.
The fist instantly let out a cracking sound, carrying a force of no less than a thousand catties, and crashed into the waist of the wild wolf, which had no time to dodge.
Crack!
The sound of breaking bones echoed. Gu Yuan was shocked; this burly man had actually broken the wild wolf's spine with a single punch.
Pfft!
The wild wolf, its abdomen violently struck, let out a pfft of blood from its mouth, mixed with fragments of shattered internal organs.
With its spine broken, the wild wolf collapsed onto the ground, panting heavily. Its once aggressive gaze had now dimmed, filled with hatred as it looked at the burly man. It knew that even if it survived this, its martial path for life was ruined.
Only now did Gu Yuan get a clear look at the powerful and burly man before him.
His face was square, exuding an aura of inherent authority, like that of a king of beasts.
The burly man took out a black mobile phone. Gu Yuan hadn't considered escaping, but this man had been locking onto him the entire time. There was no doubt that if Gu Yuan tried to flee, he would be instantly torn apart by this burly man.
After taking a few photos of the wild wolf, he put away his phone. A large hand directly grabbed the wolf, and its gaze shifted to Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan felt as if he were being stared at by a wild beast, his hair standing on end, the pressure even greater than what the wild wolf had exerted.
However, Gu Yuan's spirit did not feel this way; this sensation was currently only affecting his physical body.
At this moment, Wang Hu was looking at the young man before him with some curiosity. The youth looked to be around twenty years old. Although his martial arts were abysmal, his physique, judging by his limbs, was good and met the standards!
Wang Hu walked up to Gu Yuan and slowly spoke, "Kid, you saw how I killed, do you want to live?"
Gu Yuan looked at the burly man, who was almost two meters tall, and nodded uncertainly.
Wang Hu nodded with satisfaction. This way, they could talk properly.
Then he said, "I see you have good potential and meet our standards. I'll give you two choices: join us or die! Think about it yourself, I'll give you thirty seconds to consider."
After speaking, he stepped back two paces and switched hands, holding the wild wolf's body.
Within three seconds of Wang Hu finishing his sentence, Gu Yuan blurted out, "I'll join you."
Wang Hu laughed, a very happy laugh. "Hahaha, kid, didn't you think about what kind of organization we are?"
"No need to think, I only know that if I don't choose, you will really kill me," Gu Yuan shook his head. It was a joke; he had only been transmigrated for half a month, and if he died like this, what would be the point of going back.
If you can't beat them, join them. It's a simple principle, but many people fail to grasp it.
Wang Hu took out a black object from his pocket and threw it to Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan quickly caught it and looked closely. It was a small token, exquisitely crafted, with mysterious patterns carved on it. In the center were three small characters.
Gu Yuan read them out word by word: "Wu Ge..."
On the back was also a small character: Hu!
Then he looked up at Wang Hu. Wang Hu's ears twitched as he heard the sound of police sirens in the distance. He quickly said, "Tomorrow at six in the afternoon, bring this token and wait at the entrance of Tianhai Plaza. I will find you. You can try not to come, but I guarantee you will die a terrible death!"
With that, he revealed a somewhat dangerous smile, then bent his body and sprang forward instantly, rushing back in the direction he came from.
Gu Yuan watched Wang Hu's departing figure as police sirens blared in his ears. Without time to think, he grabbed the ingredients he had dropped earlier and took off running. He didn't want to end up in jail. As for whether he would be caught,
When Gu Yuan saw the burly man's expression, he knew he wouldn't be in any danger. Otherwise, he wouldn't have injured someone on the street.
Ignoring the strange looks from passersby, he ran all the way back home, closed the door, placed the ingredients on the floor, went into the living room, poured a glass of water, and drank it down in one go. He let out a long sigh, his eyes lost in thought, his mind replaying the burly man's words.
If he guessed correctly, Wu Ge should be an extremely powerful organization, otherwise, they wouldn't commit assault in broad daylight. But why would they want him to join? Gu Yuan couldn't figure it out. The martial arts cultivation of this body was extremely low, barely at the beginner level. Coupled with his age, who would take an interest in him?
Gu Yuan fell into a reverie, pondering endlessly but unable to understand the burly man's intentions.
He sighed. There was nothing he could do but take it one step at a time. As for whether to go tomorrow, Gu Yuan thought that if this organization was truly powerful, they would easily be able to find him.
Therefore, he had to go to Tianhai Plaza. He just didn't know what kind of organization Wu Ge was. If it was an evil organization, then this body would be considered a waste, and he would have to abandon it and return to his main world.
He shook his head, dispelling these thoughts. Gu Yuan felt that the burly man not killing him immediately made the possibility of it being an evil organization very small, but it couldn't be ruled out.
With a sigh, Gu Yuan stood up, made a simple meal, ate it, washed up, and without choosing to practice Baguazhang, he went straight to bed. His mind was in turmoil, and practicing martial arts would be inefficient. Besides, what could he possibly cultivate in one night with this body?
If you can't resist, just go with the flow.

The next day at six in the afternoon, Gu Yuan, dressed in loose sportswear, took a taxi to Tianhai Plaza, choosing not to drive.
Sitting in the car, he watched the scenery constantly passing by.
The identity of this body was that of a university student, currently on holiday. This city was called Haoyuan City, a major city in the Tiandu Prefecture of the Great Ming Empire, considered second-tier within the entire empire. Unlike where Gu Yuan lived, the area where Tianhai Plaza was located was much more prosperous. It was similar to Gu Yuan's previous life in terms of development, but with many more traditional buildings, remnants of the Great Ming Empire's centuries of culture.
Arriving at Tianhai Plaza, Gu Yuan stood at its entrance. This Tianhai Plaza was very similar in structure to a Wanda Plaza from Gu Yuan's previous life.
As he watched the crowds coming and going, a large hand suddenly appeared silently from behind, about to clap onto Gu Yuan's shoulder.
