Chapter 0067 – Mr
Jiang Yang, standing to the side, was equally excited. As Zhu Bajie's lackey, if this task was completed successfully, he would naturally reap many benefits. Who knows, Zhu Bajie might even reward him with tens of thousands of yuan in a fit of joy, enough for him to live it up for a while.
"Get him! Break his arms and legs," Hao Daxiong shouted.
"Yes!"
Zhang San, Li Si, and their group raised their axes and charged at Jiang Feng.
"Haha, come on, come on, all of you! I could use a good workout today," Jiang Feng laughed heartily.
These small fry were no match for Jiang Feng at all.
Zhu Bajie, that idiot, knew he was dealing with a martial artist but still brought these street thugs to cause trouble. Truly a testament to his low IQ.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Jiang Feng's fists were like sandbags, his punches like the wind, and in an instant, a flurry of fists sent the group sprawling to the ground.

Zhang San and Li Si had it the worst, each taking two punches, instantly sporting panda eyes and shedding tears.
Hao Daxiong was stunned, his heart filled with shock. He had no idea Jiang Feng was this powerful, thinking he was just a small fry. Now it seemed that wasn't the case at all.
Damn it!
Hao Daxiong glared at Zhu Bajie, thinking, "This guy is an idiot. If the target is this strong, why didn't he warn me so I could bring more people?"
"Get him! There's no way we can't take him down with our numbers," Hao Daxiong urged his men to charge again.
The boss had spoken, so they had no choice. Zhang San, Li Si, and the others got up, picked up their axes, and charged again.
"Chop him! Chop him to death!"
"Beat him! Cripple him!"
Some people even cheered them on, boosting the morale of their brothers.
"Brothers, whoever takes down Jiang Feng, I promise a reward of 100,000 yuan and a promotion to squad leader," Hao Daxiong shouted.
He firmly believed that heavy rewards would produce brave men.
Anyway, Zhu Bajie was footing the bill, so he didn't care. As long as the task was completed, it was fine.
Hearing the boss's promise, everyone was energized. The 100,000 yuan was a small matter; the main attraction was the squad leader position. If they could become a squad leader, they would be in the limelight, at least a small boss, and would get a share of various bonuses in the future.
So this promise was very tempting, hitting everyone like a shot of adrenaline, turning them into raging bulls charging at Jiang Feng.
"Goodness, it's like they've been injected with chicken blood," Jiang Feng said. "Alright, let me teach you another lesson."
Roar! Roar! Roar!
Azure dragons, mighty lions, and fierce tigers appeared, rushing out from Jiang Feng's fists.
In an instant, Jiang Feng executed the "Azure Dragon Lion Tiger Strength," its power shaking the heavens.
Before anyone could figure out what was happening, they were all on the ground again.
This time, they felt excruciating pain all over, as if they had been hammered by a giant iron mallet, feeling like their bones were about to shatter.
Hao Daxiong was dumbfounded this time and shouted, "You're a martial artist?"
"What, you didn't know?" Jiang Feng smiled slightly.
"No wonder you're so confident. Turns out you're a martial artist. With such strength, you indeed have the right to be arrogant," Hao Daxiong said. "But you should know, the tree that stands out in the forest is the first to be blown down. Being too flamboyant isn't a good thing; you'll eventually suffer for it, maybe even die young."
"I don't need your warning. I know what I'm doing. I just want to ask, are we still fighting?" Jiang Feng said.
"Of course we're fighting. Do you think you're the only martial artist here?" Hao Daxiong sneered. "Fortunately, I have a backup plan, or I would have really been in trouble today."
Indeed, Zhu Bajie had Jiang Yang contact him without mentioning they were dealing with a martial artist, just an ordinary person. So he brought his men over, not expecting to face a martial artist, which was quite a surprise.
But he wasn't a pushover either. How could he not have a few extraordinary people by his side?
"Mr. Hei, come out and meet your fellow martial artist," Hao Daxiong said calmly.
Swish!
A black shadow flashed and stopped beside Hao Daxiong, like a sudden appearance of a black mist.
As the shadow dissipated, a person exuding a chilling aura appeared.
This person was dressed in a black robe, completely covered from head to toe, with only a pair of eyes as sharp as lightning visible.
Jiang Feng was startled upon seeing this person, sensing a powerful force almost equal to his own.
It must be noted that Jiang Feng was now at the Foundation Establishment stage, a level few in the world could reach, let alone someone with similar strength.
Yet this person gave him a strong sense of danger.
No wonder Hao Daxiong was so confident; he had a strong protector.
This was also why Zhu Bajie had invited Hao Daxiong, as it was rumored that Hao Daxiong had a super strong protector who was elusive and mysterious.
Seeing the black-clothed person appear so eerily, everyone else took a few steps back in fear.
It was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight; it was truly terrifying.
Some girls were so scared they collapsed, and one even wet her pants and started sobbing.
In contrast, Zhu Bajie and Xiao Wanjun were excited. They knew Hao Daxiong had a strong protector, and this time they had bet right.
Seeing the formidable black-clothed person, they felt relieved. Jiang Feng was sure to suffer a beating, fulfilling their wishes.
The black-clothed person raised his head slightly, looking at Jiang Feng, saying nothing, but his eyes were fixed on Jiang Feng.
Others didn't feel much, but Jiang Feng sensed the killing intent in those eyes, even a hint of evil.
The aura from this person was very strange, different from any martial artist or national martial artist Jiang Feng had encountered before.
He couldn't quite pinpoint what was different.
"Mr. Hei, please, kill him for me," Hao Daxiong said respectfully.
It was clear he held Mr. Hei in high regard, though the nature of their relationship was unknown.
"Alright," Mr. Hei nodded slightly, his voice extremely hoarse.
Though it was just two words, they felt exceptionally heavy, like a thousand-pound stone hitting the ground with a dull thud.
"Please," Mr. Hei gestured to Jiang Feng.
Before Jiang Feng could respond, Mr. Hei had already swept towards him like a black wind.
In an instant, a sharp, dark trident-like short spike emerged from the black wind, as dark as night, like a deadly blade from hell, aiming to pierce through the void and slice through the heavens.
Jiang Feng's eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly retreated. Even so, the trident-like short spike still tore through his clothes, leaving a shallow scratch on his skin.
Damn, that was fast, Jiang Feng thought to himself.
"Jiang Feng, are you alright?" Cheng Zhenjie shouted.
"I'm fine, don't come over," Jiang Feng gritted his teeth and said.
Cheng Zhenjie nodded, not daring to approach. He knew that even if he went up, he wouldn't be of any help and might even hinder Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng looked at the scratch on his body, licked his lips, and revealed a bloodthirsty smile. "Not bad, very good. You're the first to injure me."
"Heh, that's because you haven't met me before. Otherwise, you'd be dead already," Mr. Hei said. "Your current level is decent, but you're still no match for me because you're too slow, incredibly slow."
"Is that so? I don't think so. Let's go again," Jiang Feng's fighting spirit was ignited, and he began to take the initiative.
"Divine Dragon Mysterious Steps!"
Jiang Feng's legs moved like dragons, swift as the wind, fast as lightning, quickly approaching Mr. Hei.
Mr. Hei remained calm, not moving, seemingly waiting for Jiang Feng to get closer.
Sure enough, as Jiang Feng approached, Mr. Hei turned into a black shadow, dodging Jiang Feng's attack like smoke.
Clang!
The trident-like short spike struck again, mysteriously stabbing towards Jiang Feng's back.
Jiang Feng kicked his legs, dodging left and right, not letting the trident-like short spike get close.
However, while Jiang Feng was distracted, a wisp of black mist appeared between his legs, entangling with the dragon shadow.
Jiang Feng was startled, thinking, "Is he trying to break my Divine Dragon Mysterious Steps?"
Snap!
As Jiang Feng thought this, he heard a crisp sound, and the dragon shadow between his legs shattered, turning into specks of light and disappearing.
What!
Jiang Feng was shocked. The opponent had indeed broken his move.
This realization left Jiang Feng deeply shaken. Such strength was truly overwhelming.
Bang!
While Jiang Feng was stunned, a fist struck him heavily in the chest.
Jiang Feng flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing onto a glass table, shattering it.
Shards of glass instantly left several cuts on Jiang Feng's body.
"Hahaha, is that all you've got? You couldn't even take two moves from Mr. Hei. Pathetic," Hao Daxiong laughed.
"See? I told you to give in, but you wouldn't listen and had to show off. Now look at you. Don't say I didn't warn you; you brought this on yourself," Zhu Bajie mocked.
"Jiang Feng is just putting on a brave face. Now he's been beaten. Serves him right," Xiao Wanjun sneered, her hatred for Jiang Feng evident.
"Stop with the sarcastic comments. If you're not going to help, just shut up," Cheng Zhenjie couldn't stand their petty attitudes and shouted.
"Bah, who do you think you are? If you weren't close to Jiang Feng, no one would even notice you. Now that Jiang Feng is down, let's see how long you can stay on top," Zhu Bajie spat disdainfully.
"I suggest you start following Brother Jie. Stop hanging around Jiang Feng, or you'll suffer," Xiao Wanjun said.
"Yeah, in our whole class, you're the only one close to Jiang Feng. Haven't you noticed? You're just a big fool," Jiang Yang added.
"Enough, all of you! I'd rather die than abandon Jiang Feng. If you dare say anything against him again, I'll fight you," Cheng Zhenjie said angrily.
"Hmph, I'll say whatever I want about Jiang Feng. I'll insult him, humiliate him. He slapped me in class, and I've never forgotten. I've been waiting for this day to get my revenge. If you want to stand up for him, come on, I'll kill you in a second," Zhu Bajie sneered.
