I have seen dragons

Chapter 18 Tiger Head Gang

Seeing that Zhao Xing'er's condition was becoming increasingly agitated and that things were about to get out of control, Yue Wen had no choice but to grab her arm as she was swinging it.

"Stop hitting!" he shouted.

But Zhao Xing'er's attack was thwarted, and she suddenly turned around and threw a backfist.

Yue Wen caught a glimpse of her eyes up close, and saw a fiery red light emanating from them. Her clarity was gone, and she could no longer distinguish friend from foe!

Fortunately, Yue Wen reacted quickly, raising his arms to block the punch. Upon encountering resistance, Zhao Xing'er's entire body erupted with crimson light, unleashing a powerful, surging punch like a tidal wave.

boom--

A burst of crimson flames erupted, and Yue Wen's body was instantly blasted against the opposite wall, creating a ring of deep cracks.

Fortunately, he had gathered his pure inner energy as a barrier beforehand, which prevented him from getting injured.

However, he was also stunned and dizzy for a moment.

That was a really hard punch.

After the punch was delivered, the red light around Zhao Xing'er slowly dissipated, and her eyes regained their clarity.

"Boss." She saw Yue Wen being sent flying by her and quickly jumped over to check on the situation.

"I am fine."

Yue Wenshu breathed a sigh of relief, landed lightly, and shook his arm. Apart from soreness and swelling in his forearm, he felt no other injuries.

"You actually withstood my full-force punch without any problems?" Zhao Xing'er was somewhat surprised.

"You're quite disappointed, aren't you?" Yue Wen chuckled.

"I'm sorry," Zhao Xing'er quickly apologized, "I...I do have a problem."

"I can tell." Yue Wen calmed his blood and asked, "Didn't your resume say you were at the second realm? That punch just now didn't seem like the cultivation level of the lower three realms."

“I told a little lie on my resume.” Zhao Xing’er smiled shyly. “Actually, I am at the mid-stage of the third realm, and… I have a unique physique, a natural martial arts saint body, only slightly mutated.”

Yue Wen had naturally heard of the Innate Martial Saint Body, one of the many immortal bodies, born with a red aura of martial spirit protecting the body, making it extremely powerful.

I've never had the chance to see what it looks like, let alone know what the mutated form looks like.

“My anger transforms into a red aura of martial spirit. The stronger the anger, the brighter the red aura. Once it can no longer be suppressed, it will erupt, and I must release it all to calm down,” Zhao Xing’er explained. “When I get angry to a certain extent, I can no longer suppress the red aura of martial spirit, and sometimes I can’t even distinguish friend from foe…”

Looking at the girl's fair and gentle face, Yue Wen thought to himself that it was quite a contrast.

She looks like a gentle and beautiful girl, but she instantly transforms into a bloodthirsty berserker when she gets angry.

"Gentlemen," Guo Yang, somewhat distraught, asked cautiously, "Should we call an ambulance for President Chen? He seems to be on the verge of death?"

"We'll talk about your matter when we get back." Yue Wen waved to Zhao Xing'er, indicating that they should take care of business first.

Zhao Xing'er turned to Guo Yang and apologized, "I'm sorry, I forgot to ask about your son's whereabouts."

Judging from Mr. Chen's flat-chested appearance, it seems unlikely that he will get any information out of him anytime soon.

"It's alright, there are still two living creatures here." Yue Wen walked over and grabbed one of the burly men in sunglasses. "Open your eyes! Stop pretending!"

"Ahhh, have mercy!"

The burly man wasn't actually unconscious; he just saw how Zhao Xing'er was beating up President Chen, so who would dare to make a move?
"This guy usually hires you guys to do all the illegal and criminal work, right? Did you kidnap Brother Guo's son?" Yue Wen asked. "If you don't tell the truth..."

He glanced at Zhao Xing'er, who immediately flexed her biceps.

"I don't know!" the burly man shouted immediately. "My boss assigned us a task, so I came here. As for whether he sent anyone else to do anything else, I really don't know!"

"Where is your boss?" Yue Wen frowned. "Take us to him."

"Huh?" The burly man looked troubled. "If the boss finds out I'm leading outsiders, he definitely won't let me off the hook."

Yue Wen glanced at President Chen's flat head again, "How about we have the ambulance bring two more stretchers? One for him, and one for..."

The burly man immediately jumped three feet high, dusted himself off, and stretched out his hand, "Brother and sister-in-law, this way please!"

"What are you yelling for?" Zhao Xing'er glared at him angrily.

"Ah!" The burly man immediately changed his tune: "Uncle and Auntie! Come with me!"

Zhao Xing'er: "..."

Yue Wen called out to Guo Yang, "Brother Guo, we'll go and bring your son back right away. You can go home and wait. Don't worry about me."

"what."

Guo Yang stared blankly as they left, then looked at the mess on the ground, unsure whether to feel at ease or not.

...The world appears peaceful on the surface but is chaotic inside. Every city has its share of underworld gangs lurking in the shadows.

The most powerful gang in the southern suburbs of City Seven is the Tiger Head Gang.

Ten years ago, the leader of the Tiger Head Gang suddenly appeared in this area. He didn't have many brothers under his command, but all his enemies who opposed him would be found dead in the wilderness the next day. Gradually, he became the Tiger Brother that no one dared to mess with.

There are many bosses like Mr. Chen in the southern suburbs who pay hefty protection fees to the Tiger Head Gang every month. In return, the Tiger Head Gang will provide any dirty work they need.

For example, dealing with workers like Guo Yang who are seeking compensation.

“Our Tiger Head Gang’s headquarters is very well hidden. The three-story building on the ground is just a disguise. Many brothers are always lying in ambush inside, just in case someone tries to attack us. Several times, enemies who wanted to go after our boss have died there.”

“Our boss’s real residence is in the basement at the bottom of the building. It’s a large, very secluded space. As someone who has been with him for several years, I only knew that the place existed, but I’ve never been inside.”

"But I know where the entrance to that basement is, and I can take you there directly later. It's just that you'll have to figure out how to open the door."

"..."

A small white electric scooter travels along a country road covered with fallen leaves.

Zhao Xing'er remained seated in the back of Yue Wen's seat, while the captured burly man sat in front of Yue Wen... or in a sense, in Yue Wen's lap.

Moreover, the space in front of the electric car is very small, so he looks more like a muscular lump squatting there than sitting.

It looks strong, fierce, and helpless.

At this moment, the burly man was very active, telling Yue Wen and the others about the layout of the headquarters, as if he was afraid that they might accidentally fall into an ambush.

As they were about to reach their destination, Yue Wen asked, somewhat puzzled, "Although I asked you for help, you're being too helpful. It's like you're afraid the Tiger Head Gang won't be wiped out."

"Of course." The burly man chuckled. "I've already become a traitor by bringing you to headquarters. If you wipe out the Tiger Head Gang, that's fine. But if you fail, I'm in trouble."

"Oh--"

Upon hearing this, Yue suddenly realized the truth and understood the mentality of those traitors in history.

The Tiger Head Gang's small building was surrounded by a courtyard wall, and groups of men in black suits patrolled back and forth inside, making the security quite tight. If it weren't for an inside man, it would be really difficult to break in.

After parking the electric scooter outside, the burly man straightened his gear, regained his cold expression, and swaggered inside with Yue Wen and the other man.

The burly man wasn't lying. Although he wasn't very strong, he was quite senior in the Tiger Head Gang, and all the underlings he met along the way greeted him.

"Sixth Brother, you're back."

"Okay, take two men to see the boss." The burly man nodded.

"Brother Six."

"Brother Six."

"..."

With the mole leading the way, they made their way smoothly to the entrance of a semi-downward-extending basement staircase inside the building. The burly man turned around and pointed.

“There’s nothing we can do here,” he said. “The boss is usually down here, and he won’t show himself unless it’s something important.”

Yue Wen stepped forward and probed, “There are multiple arrays on the door. Brute force may not be able to open it, and it may also alert the people inside.”

"What should we do then?" Zhao Xing'er asked. "Should we just wait for him to come out?"

"This is too passive." Yue Wen thought for a moment, then asked the burly man, "Do you have your boss's phone number?"

"You want me to lure him out?" The burly man shook his head and said, "It's difficult. Our boss is very wary. Even if something happens while I'm dealing with this small matter at the factory, it's not worth him showing up in person."

"Just give it to me," Yue Wen said.

The burly man had no choice but to open his contacts and show a string of numbers.

Yue Wen glanced at it, took out his phone and dialed the number, "Hello? Sir, your takeout has arrived."

"How could this possibly fool our boss?! This is too hasty!" The burly man's eyes widened in disbelief.

Sure enough, a cold voice came from the other end of the phone, "I didn't order takeout."

Yue Wen suddenly cursed, "Idiot, if you didn't order it, who did? Do you think I'm your father who came here specifically to feed you? I just threw it at your door. If you don't want to eat it, take it to your mother's grave!"

"Aren't you going to just curse me instead of falling for it?" The burly man was stunned. "How disgusting!"

The person on the other end of the phone was clearly caught off guard by the sudden, unfiltered insult. After a few seconds of stunned silence, a furious roar came through: "You're at the door, aren't you? Don't you dare leave! I want to see who's got guts!"

Immediately, a rattling sound came from behind the basement door, and the main door opened.

Bang!
The burly man covered his face with his hands, utterly incredulous: "You actually fooled me?"
