Chapter 105 I've Decided
"Dawei, stand up! A real man should be able to stand firm even with some superficial wounds, right?"
The buzz-cut man scolded Cao Dawei a few times before grabbing his arm and pulling him up.
After patting off the dirt on his body, his gaze, sharp as knives, turned to Qin Yu and Lu Wenrou, "Who among you hit my little brother?"
"I did!"
"I did!"
Qin Yu and Lu Wenrou almost said in unison.
"Good, whichever hand you used to hit my little brother, I'll break that hand!"
The buzz-cut man was probably around one hundred ninety centimeters tall, with a pair of hands much larger than average, looking almost like two giant fan palms.
He reached forward, attempting to grab the arms of Qin Yu and Lu Wenrou at the same time.
"Instructor Lu, be careful!"
Qin Yu's expression changed slightly.
He had determined in the instant the other party made his move that this was also a master of internal energy. Wenrou was certainly no match for him.
Yet, Wenrou was also an extremely proud person. Even after Qin Yu's warning, she did not evade but flipped her wrist, trying to use joint-locking techniques to control the buzz-cut man.
Bang!
Qin Yu lashed out with a front kick and aimed his palm at the opponent's jaw.
Even so, the buzz-cut man's fingers almost caught Lu Wenrou's arm, but Qin Yu's fierce attack forced him to take a slight step back.
As a result, five blood-red marks appeared on Wenrou's slender, fair arm.
If the man had actually caught her arm, he might have easily crushed her bones.
It wasn't that Wenrou was weak, but the buzz-cut man practiced skills like the Eagle Claw Skill, which specifically strengthened finger strength.
Compared to fists and kicks, finger strength techniques are less common. However, once mastered, their power is considerable.
With a dull sound, Qin Yu and the buzz-cut man had already exchanged blows.
Rip...
Qin Yu was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, which was now shredded at the arm. The skin beneath looked as if it had been burnt by a hot iron, showing a dark red mark.
"Licking dog, you think you're the only one in the world who can fight? My big brother is an authentic inheritor of the Eagle Claw Sect. He could explode you with a single hand!"
Seeing Qin Yu injured, Cao Dawei immediately became excited, taunting with relish.
"Qin Yu, how are you, are you okay?"
Lu Wenrou glanced at Qin Yu and asked.
"It's nothing!"
Qin Yu shook his numb arm and said nonchalantly, "Don't get involved. I'm afraid if he loses, he'll accuse us of ganging up on him and be unsatisfied!"
"...Okay!"
Lu Wenrou fell silent for a moment before nodding.
"Kid, I didn't expect someone as young as you to have also mastered internal energy, no wonder you're so arrogant. Sadly, you've met Cao Zhan. I mastered internal energy ten years ago. Come on, let's go outside where it's spacious, and I'll give you a good fight!"
After finishing speaking, Cao Zhan strode out of the private room. Outside was an open courtyard paved with bluestones, which was very suitable for fighting.
"Bitch, come out with me and see how my big brother kills your paramour!"
Cao Dawei, gripping Li Lu's hair, dragged her out of the private room.
"Let her go!"
Lu Wenrou commanded coldly.
Because she was also a woman, she couldn't tolerate a man bullying another woman in front of her.
"...Hmph!"
Cao Dawei still let go of Li Lu, afraid that Lu Wenrou would kick him again and shatter his bones.
"Come to my side!"
Lu Wenrou waved to Li Lu.
"Yes!"
Li Lu, like a scared rabbit, scampered to Lu Wenrou's side.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Hmph, Li Lu, she can protect you for a moment, but can she protect you forever? Once they are dealt with by my big brother, see how I deal with you!"
Cao Dawei glared at Li Lu fiercely and said with an eerie sneer.
"Dawei..."
Li Lu bit her lip, both scared and anxious.
"You're called Cao Dawei, right? Let me tell you, I don't care about the state of your marriage, but if you dare to commit domestic violence, I'll definitely intervene!"
Lu Wenrou didn't beat around the bush, she glared at Cao Dawei and sternly said.
"Hmph, first, see if you have the ability to leave the villa,"
Cao Dawei seemed to have a lot of confidence in his elder brother.
"Your brother thinks he can eat me alive?"
Lu Wenrou said, raising her eyebrows, then grabbed Li Lu's wrist, "Come on, let's go outside and see what's happening!"
In the courtyard,
Cao Zhan and Qin Yu were already entangled in a fight.
Honestly, over the years, Qin Yu hadn't shied away from fighting with others and had garnered quite the experience in real combat. Plus, he had mastered the subtle power of internal energy, which made him a tough match for the average person.
However, the Cao Zhan he was facing now was, by far, the most formidable opponent he had encountered in over a decade.
His ten fingers had been trained to be as tough as steel bars.
If Qin Yu had been an ordinary person, a slight misstep would result in his bones cracking under those powerful grips.
Crack...
Cao Zhan's hands, like the claws of a fierce tiger, reached out for Qin Yu's face once again.
Qin Yu didn't resist head-on but instead dodged nimbly.
A landscape tree as thick as a fist behind him was simply snapped in half at the waist by Cao Zhan's grip.
"Brother, go on, kill this damn cur!"
After lighting a cigarette, Cao Dawei shouted excitedly.
"Go, Zhan! Go on!"
Cao Dawei's fair-weather friends also cheered Cao Zhan on.
"Hmph, what's the rush? It's not easy to find such a formidable sparring partner; I have to enjoy this first!"
Cao Zhan's face had a mocking expression as he withdrew his hands and took large strides towards Qin Yu again.
Whoosh whoosh...
Qin Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and launched two rapid low sweeping kicks.
Cao Zhan's Eagle Claw Skill was terrifying; Qin Yu didn't dare to engage him in close combat and had to maintain his distance using his leg techniques.
Unless someone is a real genius and has managed to perfect the art of punches, kicks, and finger strikes, it's almost certain that if his finger force is so formidable, his punches and kicks would be inferior.
That was Qin Yu's strategy: to play to his strengths and use legwork to spar with his opponent.
"Hmph..."
Indeed, after taking a hit to his shin, Cao Zhan staggered slightly.
But such an attack only caused him shame and anger without really impairing his combat ability.
With a cold snort, he swung his steel-like palms and lunged once more towards Qin Yu.
Whoosh...
Qin Yu leaped into the air, executing a spectacular spinning kick aimed at Cao Zhan's head.
In real combat, no one fancies using such flamboyant moves—it's not just a waste of energy but also has a low success rate.
But Qin Yu had no choice; Cao Dawei's brother was proficient in the very rare Eagle Claw Skill.
"Seeking death!"
Cao Zhan's eyes narrowed as he raised a hand to protect his head while the other hand reached out for Qin Yu's ankle.
Thump...
Qin Yu, aware of the lethality of Cao Zhan's Eagle Claw Skill, forced his body to drop suddenly just before his ankle could be grabbed.
Of course, the target of the attack shifted from Cao Zhan's head to his heart.
Thud...
Cao Zhan couldn't avoid it in time and took a solid kick to the chest, but he managed to grab Qin Yu's belt and swung Qin Yu's body down hard towards the ground.
"Qin Yu!"
Li Lu closed her eyes, scared.
"This is bad!"
Lu Wenrou's face changed drastically.
With such a terrifying force, not to mention a living person, even a lump of concrete would be smashed to pieces.
