The young man was none other than Er Zhu, who had received the distress signal!
“Who are you?” Liu Yun didn’t attack directly but instead questioned Er Zhu with a wary expression.
“Who else could he be? Just a bumpkin passing by to eat, and a fool at that!”
Before Er Zhu could speak, Liu Fengshan, casting a dismissive glance, spoke first.
While most of the customers in this restaurant were participants of the competition, they hadn't booked the entire establishment, so it was inevitable that there were other people present.
However, seeing someone this foolish was rare…
“Haha, he’s indeed a fool. He dares to speak up when Old Man Liu makes a move? Isn’t that asking for death?”
“Pfft… has he watched too many TV shows and wants to act tough in front of a master?”
“I know him, he’s Er Zhu from Shiliu Village, he’s a fool!”
…
As soon as Liu Fengshan finished speaking, the surrounding crowd focused their attention on Er Zhu, cursing and mocking him with great animation.
“Er Zhu is not a fool, he is our friend!”
Seeing Er Zhu being humiliated, Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing quickly ran over to defuse the situation. Zhao Lin and Chen Mo were also about to step forward, but Er Zhu gently shook his head at them.
“Mesdames, what do you mean by this? You’d rather be friends with a fool than with me, Liu Fengshan?”
Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing’s words made Liu Fengshan feel greatly humiliated. He never expected that in the eyes of these two beauties, he was actually inferior to a fool!
“Yes, you are indeed inferior to a fool. Er Zhu… he is very capable. All of you combined are not as capable as him!”
Liu Yan answered while thinking. She was about to mention Er Zhu’s businesses, but considering his low-key personality, she could only summarize it with the word ‘capable’.
“Haha, what capability can a fool have?” But in Liu Fengshan’s eyes, these words were just sophistry. He laughed heartily three times and charged at Er Zhu. He intended to throw Er Zhu out, but to his surprise, Er Zhu dodged!
A hint of surprise flashed in Liu Fengshan’s eyes. Thinking it was a fluke, he was about to strike again, but at this moment, Er Zhu grabbed his wrist. With a gentle pull, a wave of immense pain forced Liu Fengshan to his knees!
“How dare you injure my son!”
Seeing Liu Fengshan’s dangling arm, Liu Yun roared in anger and charged at Er Zhu. Er Zhu grabbed Liu Yun’s shoulder, and with a snap, his left arm also broke!
Instantly, everyone stared at Er Zhu, dumbfounded. They were utterly shocked, especially the martial artist who had just recognized them.
This is a fool?
If he’s a fool, then what is he…
“Kid, who exactly are you?” Liu Yun, enduring the intense pain, asked again.
If he had only felt this person was extraordinary before, he was now absolutely certain that this person was indeed extraordinary!
The word ‘capable’ that the woman mentioned earlier must refer to more than just his martial skills, but also other things!
“Didn’t that person say it? I’m just a fool from Shiliu Village.”
Er Zhu glanced at the martial artist who had revealed his identity, then released his grip. Liu Yun collapsed to the ground, yet he still stared at Er Zhu in utter shock.
How could a fool possess such martial prowess!
To dislocate his arm with a single move, let alone a fool, even a martial arts master would find it difficult to achieve!
Not far away, Zhao Lin and Chen Mo exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
In just a few days, Er Zhu’s skills seemed to have improved considerably!
While they were shocked, their admiration for Er Zhu grew even stronger. Especially Chen Mo, who became even more convinced that following Er Zhu was the most correct decision he had ever made in his life!
To dislocate Old Liu’s arm in one move, even his master couldn't do that!
“Father, kill him quickly! Kill him!”
Liu Fengshan, gritting his teeth in pain, glared at Er Zhu and roared.
No matter who this guy was, he would cut him into a thousand pieces today!
Not only had he lost face, but he had also crippled one of his hands. His feud with this brat was irreconcilable!
“Enough!” Seeing Liu Fengshan about to attack, Liu Yun grabbed his son and frowned, shaking his head at his son.
“My son was reckless today. I, Liu, apologize to you ladies on behalf of my son!”
Before Liu Fengshan could react, Liu Yun stood up, enduring the pain, and bowed deeply to Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing.
Just as Liu Fengshan was about to retort, he saw Er Zhu’s cold eyes. The coldness in his gaze sent a chill down Liu Fengshan’s spine, and the words he was about to utter seemed to stick to his tongue, impossible to utter!
Who exactly was this guy, to possess such formidable aura!
For the first time, Liu Fengshan doubted Er Zhu’s identity, but after much thought, he couldn't fathom who Er Zhu could be.
“Old Man Liu, you indeed need to teach your arrogant son a good lesson. Er Zhu, let’s go!”
Seeing Liu Yun apologize to them, Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing shivered, overwhelmed. They hadn’t intended to let Liu Fengshan off so easily, but considering the Liu family’s strength, they decided not to pursue the matter.
Seeing that Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing didn’t intend to press the issue, Er Zhu said nothing. He merely glanced at Liu Fengshan before leaving with the two women.
Watching Er Zhu’s retreating back, Liu Yun’s gaze was filled with complexity. As soon as Er Zhu left the restaurant, he sent people to inquire about Er Zhu’s background, but the results were all the same.
He was just a fool from Shiliu Village!
Meanwhile, in the car returning, Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing were in turmoil. Especially when they recalled Liu Yun apologizing to them, their hearts were filled with unease.
“Er Zhu, you need to be careful in the future. The Liu family is a major family in the martial arts world. They lost so much face today because of you, they will definitely retaliate!”
Liu Yan frowned, reminding him with worry.
“Yes, those who came today were only the tip of the iceberg of the Liu family’s strength. Liu Fengshan has an elder brother named Liu Fengting, who is a national martial arts champion!”
Lin Qingqing’s eyes darted, and as if struck by an idea, she added with concern.
“Oh.” But facing their worry, Er Zhu still appeared indifferent. This expression made Liu Yan and Lin Qingqing seriously suspect if Er Zhu was truly foolish.
“Er Zhu, the Liu family’s status in the martial arts world is indeed very high. They are not like those local ruffians. You really need to be cautious!”
Liu Yan, thinking Er Zhu hadn’t grasped the severity, patiently explained again.
“Alright, the two of you. They are just two martial artists; they can’t hurt me.” Seeing Lin Qingqing about to speak, Er Zhu dug at his ear, speaking somewhat helplessly.
“Then… alright.” Although the two didn’t entirely believe Er Zhu, considering his fluid martial arts, they didn’t say anything further.
