Urban Immortal Lord
Chapter 21: First Glimpse of Talent
Just as Brother Biao was demanding an exorbitant price from Chen Zijing, Xia Tian's calm voice suddenly rang out, and instantly, almost everyone's eyes turned to Xia Tian.
Zhang Jinbo and Liu Zhenxing were secretly lamenting their predicament. In their view, there was still a chance for things to turn around, but Xia Tian's domineering and arrogant words almost plunged the three of them into another crisis.
Of course, Zhang Jinbo and Liu Zhenxing did not blame Xia Tian. They just felt that Xia Tian was impulsive, but they were still quite grateful to him. If Xia Tian hadn't stepped in to resolve Liu Zhenxing's troubles, the two of them would probably have been beaten so badly that they wouldn't even recognize their own mothers.
"Don't be impulsive in the summer."
Chen Zijing looked worried and reminded him, "There are too many of them. If you keep making a scene, you might get hurt."
"It's alright." Xia Tian glanced gratefully at Chen Zijing and shook his head. He was genuinely grateful to this woman. From the beginning, Xia Tian knew that this young and beautiful bar owner was biased towards him, but when he heard Brother Biao ask for a million yuan in compensation, Xia Tian felt that there was no need to continue to keep a low profile.
Even if this complete stranger, the bar owner, were actually willing to compensate Brother Biao with one million yuan on his behalf, Xia Tian would not accept such kindness, because he would not accept a favor without doing so, and he never wanted to owe anyone a favor.
Moreover, from Chen Zijing's perspective, she might not necessarily go against Brother Biao for the sake of a complete stranger.
Xia Tian was already very grateful that Chen Zijing had gone to such lengths, and decided to handle the rest herself.
Xia Tian wasn't confident he could take down all of these dozens of people. Although he was now at the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, he wasn't invincible. He knew that if he fought these dozens of people, he would definitely have to pay a price. Fortunately, the price was still within Xia Tian's tolerance.
"Hahaha, Boss Chen, it's not that I'm not giving you face, it's just that this kid doesn't appreciate it. Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
Brother Biao laughed wildly, then said to his men, "All of you, attack together and cripple this kid!"
After receiving Biao Ge's order, the dozens of people rushed towards Xia Tian, and the scene immediately became chaotic.
At the same time, under Chen Zijing's instructions, the bar staff began to clear the area and evacuate the crowd.
Seeing this, Xia Tian suddenly leaped up and stood on the table, secretly circulating his Qi Refining Level 3 cultivation to protect his vital points.
"Master Xia, do you need me to help?" Li Qiang was terrified when he saw everyone rushing forward, but he still pretended to be calm and asked Xia Tian.
"Heh, even at a time like this, you're still acting tough. If you don't want to die, retreat to a safe place and take care of my two friends."
Xia Tian glanced at Li Qiang indifferently, then said to Zhang Jinbo and the other man, "You two find a safe place to hide, otherwise the scene will become chaotic and I may not have time to take care of you."
Upon hearing this, the three of them said no more and quickly retreated behind Chen Zijing.
Just then, a blade of light slashed from behind Xia Tian. It turned out that a thug had taken advantage of Xia Tian's distraction to launch a sneak attack.
"court death!"
As a cultivator, Xia Tian's perception was extremely sharp. He easily dodged the sneak attack by simply shifting his position.
Immediately, Xia Tian stepped on the man's machete with one foot and kicked the man's face hard with the other.
The man had no time to dodge and was kicked by Xia Tian, flying several meters backward. The force of the kick knocked down several people, and the man fell to the ground instantly, his life hanging in the balance.
Just then, a dozen or so people rushed over and swung their knives at Xia Tian.
Xia Tian skillfully evaded the attacks of several people with his keen senses, and then dislocated their joints, rendering them unable to fight, but he did not kill them.
Suddenly, a blade of light slashed towards Xia Tian's arm. Due to the large number of attackers, Xia Tian had no time to dodge and could only steel himself and sidestep to avoid a vital spot.
The knife struck Xia Tian's shoulder, causing blood to gush out and look extremely frightening.
Fortunately, no bones or tendons were damaged; it was just some superficial wounds.
But Xia Tian was enraged; this strike completely ignited the bloodlust buried deep within him.
Xia Tian raised his hand and grabbed the man's wrist, circulating his spiritual power. A 'squeak' sound came from the man's wrist, and the man let out a bloodcurdling scream.
Summer crushed the bones in that person's wrist, causing him unbearable pain.
After hearing the man's horrific screams, no one dared to take another step forward.
Summer was covered in blood, all from the wound on his shoulder.
"Anyone else who's not afraid of death, come up here!" Xia Tian casually picked up a long knife, pointed it at the sky, and said in a deep voice to the thugs.
Before summer, he had only dislocated some joints in these people's wrists or ankles, without really hurting them, but these thugs were trying to kill him.
Xia Tian decided to stop holding back. He pointed his long sword at the sky, which immediately terrified dozens of Biao Ge's men, who dared not take a step forward.
"What are you all standing there for? Whoever kills this kid today, I'll give them a million!"
Seeing this, Brother Biao roared and ordered his men to continue. As the saying goes, a great reward will surely bring forth brave men. With Brother Biao's promise of a large sum of money, these men began to charge towards Xia Tian again.
"Is I only worth a million?" Xia Tian said coldly, "Since you're not afraid of death, then I'll grant your wish!"
Seeing these people rushing forward recklessly, Xia Tian activated his profound skill, causing his spiritual power to surge wildly outward. He then raised his hand and swung his sword down at the person at the front. The sword strike was unstoppable, severing the man's arm.
Another scream echoed through the bar lobby, and the severed arm lay bloodied on the ground, a stark and jarring sight.
The crowd retreated again. No one was unafraid of death. When they saw their companion's arm separated from his body, they were also afraid that they would be next.
That's exactly the effect Xia Tian wanted—to make an example of them and intimidate the thugs. Otherwise, if they swarmed at him, Xia Tian knew he wouldn't be able to handle it.
Less than half of the thugs were still standing in the entire bar hall; the other half were groaning on the ground.
It was only then that Brother Biao realized that the person he was dealing with was no ordinary person. Could an ordinary person take down almost half of his men by himself?
Even if Brother Biao was stupid, he realized the seriousness of the problem. Unexpectedly, he did not order his men to charge again, and his face showed a solemn expression.
Summer took advantage of this opportunity to secretly circulate her energy and restore her depleted spiritual power.
