"Bang! Bang!" Liu Yidao’s body was kicked into the air, smashing a few stools, before he painfully climbed up and cursed, "Damn it, that hurts like hell."
Then, glaring at Lin Tian, Liu Yidao’s eyes filled with venom. He shouted towards the door, "Brothers, come in, we’ve got a tough nut to crack."
"Rustle rustle rustle..." Following Liu Yidao’s order, seven or eight thugs walked in. They were all dressed flashy and had tattoos, clearly a bunch of unemployed drifters.
"What happened to Brother Dao?" As these people came in and saw Liu Yidao looking somewhat disheveled, they all wore stunned expressions and asked.
"It’s nothing. This kid, take him down for me." Hearing his underling’s question, Liu Yidao couldn’t admit he’d been sent flying by Lin Tian - he couldn’t lose face like that. He pointed at Lin Tian as he spoke.
"Pfft, leave this little punk to me. Watch how I knock him down in just minutes." One of the underlings, looking at Lin Tian whom Liu Yidao pointed at, immediately showed a disdainful expression on his face.
He was holding a steel rod, then with a grim smile, he said to Lin Tian, "Kid, better watch who you mess with next time."
"Whoosh whoosh..." The steel rod swung through the air, whooshing, then came down hard toward Lin Tian’s shoulder.
But Lin Tian was not at all panicked. As the rod swung down, he activated his Ox Power Technique without dodging and punched towards the steel rod.
"This kid must have lost his mind. He’s actually using his hand to strike a steel rod."
"Haha... I think so too. I bet his hand’s definitely going to shatter."
"What an idiot, I can’t help but laugh."
"..."
The rest of the thugs who saw Lin Tian use his hand to meet the steel rod all mocked with sneers.
"Clang!" A metallic collision sounded, and then everyone’s gazes froze. They looked at Lin Tian’s fist in disbelief.
"What?"
What the hell did we just see? The steel rod was actually bent, and his hand was completely fine.
"Hiss..." They all involuntarily sucked in a breath of cold air, finding it hard to believe.
The thug who swung the steel rod at Lin Tian felt this even more so. Looking at the bent rod in his hands, his courage shattered, and he was filled with a fearful urge to flee.
What have I done? How could I provoke someone like this?
"Bang!" Lin Tian paid no mind to his shock; he kicked the man in the gut, then looked mockingly at Liu Yidao and said, "Is this the best you got? Doesn’t seem too impressive to me."
"..." Hearing this, Liu Yidao and the rest went pale, thinking, damn, we had to run into you. If it were someone else, you’d see what would happen.
Yet, clearly overpowered, seeing Lin Tian bend the steel rod with a single punch, Liu Yidao and his men didn’t dare to make a move. Facing such a ruthless person, wouldn’t fighting back be like serving themselves up on a platter? Your next chapter is on freewebnovel
"Hmph." Liu Yidao glared at Wang Ke and snorted coldly, then said, "You’re lucky this time, but don’t forget we’ve got your father. If you don’t bring the money today, get ready to collect his corpse."
Having said that, Liu Yidao with his underlings ran off as if they were escaping.
"Are you alright?" Lin Tian turned his gaze to Wang Ke, who was next to him, as Liu Yidao left and asked.
"No, I’m fine." Wang Ke’s face was somewhat pale, but she still managed to show a strained smile to Lin Tian.

"Are you really okay?" Lin Tian looked at her and asked again. "Perhaps I can help you."
"No need, you’ve already helped me a lot." Hearing Lin Tian offer his help, Wang Ke’s face showed a bitter smile as she spoke.
But she had no intention of dragging Lin Tian down with her. Judging from the IOU from Liu Yidao, she owed the casino two hundred thousand, which was no small sum—for an average family, no one could casually claim they have that much money to spare.
Moreover, Lin Tian was only in his teens, where would he get so much money? Besides, they had only just met. Asking for money after one encounter would be too impolite.
"So you’re not planning to save your father?" Lin Tian saw through Wang Ke’s concerns and pointed out the crux of the issue.
"I, I... This is all his doing. I’ve already paid his debts many times. This time, I’ll just leave it to fate," Wang Ke choked up, her eyes reddening and tears inevitably starting to flow as she spoke.
She truly had no other options; even if she could come up with a penny, she wouldn’t just watch her father being taken away, because no matter how much of a scoundrel he was, he was still her father.
"Leave it to me; I’ll save your father." Seeing Wang Ke helpless and in tears, Lin Tian couldn’t help but feel compassion. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders, letting her lean on him as he said, "Where is the casino located?"
"Don’t go. They have many people and great power. You just fought their people; they won’t let you off." Hearing Lin Tian ask for the location of the casino, Wang Ke immediately became worried and said.
"Don’t you know my strength? Tell me their location, and I’ll save your father." Lin Tian reassured her with a comforting smile.
Looking at Lin Tian’s smile and recalling the great battle between him and Zhang Ya, Wang Ke inexplicably felt some confidence. She then gave Lin Tian the casino’s location but repeatedly instructed that if he couldn’t win the fight, he should leave and not act recklessly.
......
On the other side, Zhang Ya, having escaped from Lin Tian’s grasp, didn’t look for the Li Family immediately but hid herself away.
Her injuries were very severe, hardly any less than Lin Tian’s, especially after the last confrontations with him, where almost every blow did damage to her body.
Her arm had been fractured by Lin Tian.
Looking at her arm wrapped in a bandage, the venom in Zhang Ya’s eyes was unmistakable; she said through gritted teeth, "Lin Tian, I won’t let you go. Absolutely not."
However, recalling the loss of her superpower, she felt powerless again. With the superpower group, she possessed three powers: Instantaneous Movement, enhanced strength, and Curse.
Now, with the loss of her strength superpower, she only had Instantaneous Movement and Curse left— even thinking of revenge seemed impossible without the means.
"Bang!" Suddenly, the door to Zhang Ya’s room was kicked open, and then she saw a foreigner walking in. He had blond hair, blue eyes, fair skin, and a high nose bridge, which made him look quite handsome.
"Ya, are you there?" The foreigner called out as he entered the room and looked around.
"Albert, why is it you?" Hearing the voice, Zhang Ya let out a sigh of relief, her anxious heart easing. She stepped out of the corner and asked the handsome man in front of her.
"Ya, it’s really you! I finally found you." Albert saw Zhang Ya stepping out of the corner and exclaimed excitedly. However, his expression grew somber as he saw her arm wrapped in bandages.
