Chapter 85 - Teaching Some People Manners
“It’s been a while, Mr. Lu!” Lin Sheng went up to Lu Xuan’s side right away and greeted him respectfully.
“Yeah.” Lu Xuan nodded and took a look at Lin Sheng, saying, “You’ve achieved good progress in your cultivation. Put more effort into it, and you’ll be a Martial Arts Legend soon enough!”
Lin Sheng was overjoyed when he heard Lu Xuan say that. He probably would not have bothered if it was someone else, so much so that he would not have even batted an eye. However, things were different since it was Lu Xuan who said those words.
Lu Xuan was a true, formidable Martial Arts Legend, after all.
As such, his words naturally held weight like none other.
“Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Lu!” Lin Sheng thanked him fervently.
Yun Sheng then went up to Lu Xuan and said, “Mr. Lu, these are the ones who will be participating in this operation. I’m sure you already know of those from the Seven Invincible Sect and the Chen Clan. Here are the masters of the Dharma Hall of the Southern Shaolin Temple, and here is the head of the Dharma Hall, Master Buyi.
Lu Xuan was immediately surprised when he took a look at the middle-aged monk who was the leader of the monks. The monk was, too, a Martial Arts Legend.
Monk Buyi’s eyes glittered right away. He seemed to have understood why none of the others were fazed by what was happening.
Everything would have made sense if that young man were a Martial Arts Legend. There were few such people to be had in the entire province, after all, and every single one of them would have been a notable figure or leaders of sorts.
It was no surprise why the people of the Seven Invincible Sect and the Chen Clan behaved so respectfully towards Lu Xuan.
However, he was still puzzled about that Mr. Lu’s background. The young man looked to be in his late teens, yet the combat prowess he exhibited shocked even the head monk.
He wondered if the Southern Shaolin Temple had been keeping to themselves for too long to know of new formidable figures emerging in the province.
Those powerful gangsters who followed Yang Chengsi’s lead had initially intended to fight Lu Xuan.
However, when they saw their boss get slapped twice across the face by Lu Xuan, all of them were stunned. To put it precisely, they were terrified to the core.
As the head of the coalition, Yang Chengsi, apparently, did not amass his followers through virtue. He had dominated those people through sheer brute force.
Gangs went up against him, and he, in turn, defeated all of the best fighters the gangs produced, eventually making him the head of the coalition.
In their minds, Yang Chengsi’s fighting prowess had been godlike, yet one such revered figure was sent flying through the air without a care right before their eyes. Anyone with any sense at all would not have dared to step up then.
“Do anything funny again, and I’ll render you a cripple right here, right now!”
Lu Xuan shot a cold glare at Yang Chengsi. He had no affinity for gangsters, to begin with, and the thickness of Yang Chengsi’s killing intent was anything but ordinary. He had committed many crimes and killed scores of people, after all.
Lu Xuan had only spared him due to Yun Sheng being around.
Yang Chengsi finally realized what kind of power he was going up against after being sent flying back with just two slaps. He had learned just how terrifying Lu Xuan was. Even if Lu Xuan was, too, a Martial Arts Legend, he would definitely be way above Yang Chengsi in terms of fighting prowess.
“Sure, sure,” Yang Chengsi said right away. He no longer dared to look at Lu Xuan with menacing eyes anymore. He was taught a lesson like that because he scowled at Lu Xuan, after all.
He did not even have any doubts about getting killed outright if he were to dare look at Lu Xuan with such eyes again.
He had truly bitten off more than he was able to chew at that time.
Yun Sheng looked rather pleased with what just happened. As a former military officer, he had no affinity for underworld figures like Yang Chengsi. He only tolerated the man’s presence due to Yang Chengsi being more than he was able to handle.
Still, it was nonetheless cathartic to see Yang Chengsi get beaten like a dog.
