Super Soldier in the City

Chapter 1717 - 1769: Strength

These words were originally meant to be spoken by Zhao Wu. When it comes to mocking opponents, Zhao Wu could do it, but in the moment he blocked Li Yifei, they exchanged six hard blows, fist to fist, muscle to muscle. Li Yifei did not retreat, he just stopped, whereas Zhao Wu took three steps back.In this initial exchange, Zhao Wu suffered some losses, so he couldn’t bring himself to speak those mocking words.

Their exchange was so fast that the surrounding people didn’t see it clearly before they separated, but they all knew the two had exchanged blows.

Those outsiders, although they gathered around, still kept some distance, and couldn’t see clearly what actually happened. However, they knew Li Yifei had made a move, the clan chief of the Li Family, now one of the most prestigious people in the province, had made a move. He was finally provoked by those brought by Song Zude, and took action, which made them all the more excited.

"Finally, some good drama is about to unfold. The clan chief of the Li Family couldn’t hold back anymore and made a move. Everyone, step back a bit and give the clan chief some space!" someone whispered quietly. Those who heard immediately stepped back, while others squeezed forward, afraid they might miss something.

"It’s a fight!" The ladies on this side were also observing. Seeing Li Yifei and the opponent exchange blows, someone exclaimed.

Xu Yingying and Ye Yunzhu turned their heads, seeing Li Yifei make a move, both frowned slightly. On a day like this, Song Zude’s actions were really over the top. The Li Family hosting a banquet was also a declaration of strength, and to cause trouble at a time like this, and even resort to violence, how deep must the hatred be?

The sisters exchanged a look and understood each other’s meaning, which was, if someone dared to cause trouble, the Li Family dared to face them. If someone wanted to court death, the Li Family would be glad to oblige.

Having heard of the Zhao Family earlier, the two women had already investigated the Zhao Family’s background.

"The Zhao Family!" Xu Yingying murmured. She didn’t know about the Zhao Family, but it was Ye Yunzhu who inquired with Su Mengxin. Su Mengxin wasn’t clear on the situation but quickly replied with a message: "Southern Sky Crocodile, dozens of times more powerful than the Li Family."

This level of power can already compete with some families in the Capital City. If the Li Family provoked such a family... well, come to think of it, hasn’t the Li Family already provoked enough powerful families? Back when Li Yifei eloped, he provoked several Capital Families, and by bringing Su Mengxin into his embrace, he provoked a whole bunch of Capital Families eyeing Su Mengxin. Isn’t the Li Family developing well now? Those people didn’t do much to Li Yifei, let alone pin down the Li Family.

So, what about the Zhao Family? It was you who first provoked the Li Family!

Under Li Yifei’s influence, the character of the Li Family members has changed somewhat from before. They don’t instigate trouble, but they’re not afraid of it. Big or small issues won’t scare the Li Family.

The performance of the two women earned them secret praise from those ladies. On one hand, their husband was fighting someone, and the opponent had a significant background, yet the two women remained calm. The composure they displayed was something many could learn from.

On the surface, it seemed Li Yifei suffered a loss, as if he flicked his hand away, but in fact, it wasn’t the case. Li Yifei merely flicked his hand, and that was all.

Several clan leaders automatically stepped aside, fearing they might be impacted, while they also were curious about how strong Li Yifei had become.

Zhao Wu looked back at Second Master Zhao, who made a throat-slitting gesture, signaling him to go all-out, to which Zhao Wu nodded.

This throat-slitting gesture was also directed at Li Yifei.

Even Old Master Ye didn’t interfere this time. If his grandson-in-law was so easily handled, then Li Yifei wouldn’t have been around these past few years. So why bother about the Zhao Family or any other family?

Unusually, even the Chu and Hu families felt Li Yifei was doing a good job. The way Song Zude played things made it clear he didn’t want to stay in the game anymore. If he turned the tables, the other families wouldn’t have a good time either. Bringing in such a behemoth like the Zhao Clan of Southern Sky was no longer like raising a tiger but directly inviting in a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Now they very much anticipated Li Yifei and the Zhao Family clashing head-on. They would be willing to spend some money or mobilize some people.

These were all sharp individuals. Although Song Zude hadn’t said anything, and the Zhao Family hadn’t revealed too much, they had guessed quite a bit.

As a major province in the northeast of Huaxia, with national policies being adjusted, the Zhao Family is likely eyeing this lucrative opportunity.

Once a national strategy is formulated, it involves billions or even trillions. Whoever has control or shares a piece will have a profound impact on their family for years or decades to come.

Without even needing to communicate, they could sense this, including Li Yifei. Although he didn’t manage much of the family affairs this past year, it didn’t mean he knew little.

Seeing Second Master Zhao’s throat-slitting gesture, Li Yifei’s eyes turned cold. Just then, Song Zude laughed arrogantly and said, "How about it, Li Yifei, you’ve met your match, haven’t you? Ha ha, let me tell you, Zhao Family is full of experts. Having offended Zhao Family, the downfall of the Li family is not far away! By then, Song Family will go from second place back to first!"

The fight hadn’t started yet, and Song Zude was already daydreaming.

Song Zude seemed oblivious to the expressions of the surrounding clan leaders. He continued to laugh to himself maniacally, saying, "Heh heh, Li Yifei, you didn’t expect it, did you? I’ve bided my time until now, finally having the opportunity to climb back up. Ha ha, you all thought the Song Family would crumble in my hands in this generation, but I tell you, the Song Family will thrive even more in my hands! Stronger than before! Ha ha ha!"

The response Song Zude got was a punch from Li Yifei. The air exploded with a bang. Li Yifei made a direct move; after all, they wanted to kill him, and Song Zude was there spouting nonsense. If Li Yifei endured any longer, he wouldn’t be Li Yifei.

Zhao Wu swung his fist to block Li Yifei. The two exchanged blows over ten times in the cramped space. At first, Zhao Wu felt confident, but as the fight continued, Li Yifei’s punches grew stronger and more forceful. Zhao Wu started to feel doubtful. Wasn’t Li Yifei just a special forces soldier? Where did he get such strength? And the moves... he had clearly trained.

But Zhao Wu couldn’t think for long, as Li Yifei didn’t use any particular moves or tactics, just one punch after another, relentlessly hitting Zhao Wu. If Zhao Wu could block them, then so be it, because another punch from Li Yifei would immediately follow.

Bam bam bam, boom boom boom.

The outsiders only saw the two collide, their arms and hand afterimages continuously flashing. Zhao Wu’s mouth roared with anger, and his body kept retreating, step by step, blow by blow...
