I practice martial arts by adding skill points in modern city-Chapter 52: 【049】Return to the Island

"Alright, alright, you’re good at fighting, let’s just leave it at that for today, okay? You take them and go." The fat man looked at Wang Longhu who was slowly walking towards him, hurriedly spreading his hands as he spoke.

Wang Longhu didn’t speak, silently waving his hand at Lin Haitao, signaling him to find Ye Yuanpei.

Lin Haitao immediately understood, directly questioning the fat man: "Where did you lock up my friend?"

"In the trunk of the BMW 3 Series with a missing wheel behind there." The fat man helplessly looked at Wang Longhu: "Hey man, we all got to be reasonable in what we do, right? What time are we living in now, how could I lock someone up here for no reason?

Your friend took on my operation, became my subordinate. If he had just earned the commission honestly, things wouldn’t have gotten to this point. But he insisted on setting up his own private operation using my setup, all the bets went into his pocket,

and now he owes me fifty grand he can’t repay. What do you think should be done about it? I’m not running this business alone; there’s a bigger boss above me pressing down."

Wang Longhu glanced at him without responding.

Wang Longhu had no interest in understanding how complicated things were behind the scenes. He came today just to rescue someone.

Soon, Lin Haitao helped Ye Yuanpei out from the car the fat man mentioned, his face covered in bruises. Seeing his friend in such a state, Lin Haitao couldn’t help but ask: "Weren’t you here to discuss repaying the money? How did you get beaten up like this and they still won’t let you go?"

"I saw someone inside using stuff, and they demanded I pay back all the interest and principal in one go or they wouldn’t let me leave." Ye Yuanpei spat a mouthful of blood, looking fearfully at the fat man conversing with Wang Longhu.

"Damn it, it’s not even your debt you’re repaying for Jin Zhihao. You’ve got so much debt over your head already, do you still want to dig deeper? Do you ever want to get back on your feet in this life?" Lin Haitao quickly led Ye Yuanpei out of the repair shop.

Wang Longhu then kicked open the door of the cage where Jin Zhihao was held, and made him crawl out in fear.

"Scram." Wang Longhu kicked him on the thigh, lowering his voice to growl.

Jin Zhihao’s eyes were initially blank, but he started to crawl away frantically, looking quite pathetic after being frightened.

"Hey man, considering your reputation, I’m actually willing to write off the fifty grand. Want to exchange contact info?" The fat man rubbed his hands together, exhaling a sigh of relief while smiling.

"Why, planning to settle the score with me later?" Wang Longhu sneered.

"Not at all; seeing your skills, you could take on ten men. Having a friend like you isn’t a loss even for fifty grand."

"So what if I’m skilled? I’m a law-abiding citizen."

"Man, you might not know, but in some places, with skills like yours, making eighty grand a night is a breeze, and it’s not illegal."

"No interest. Today I spared you, but if you dare lay a hand on my friends next time, I guarantee you’ll be hurt worse than these guys." Wang Longhu pointed to the guards writhing on the ground and then turned and walked away.

It wasn’t until Wang Longhu’s figure disappeared into the workshop that the fat man slumped onto the couch, sweat pouring from his forehead.

"Damn, really messed up this time. How could that bastard Jin Zhihao get mixed up with someone like this? Those skills definitely aren’t just picked up by ordinary folks. Even overseas, finding someone this skilled isn’t easy."

...

"Are you alright?" Seeing Jin Zhihao also coming out of the repair shop, Ye Yuanpei immediately asked.

"Th-thank you." Jin Zhihao weakly nodded, wearing only pants, his skin all bruised and beaten, looking truly pitiful.

This once again solidified in Wang Longhu’s mind that one must never take crooked paths in life. Otherwise, when misfortune strikes, you could die without anyone knowing.

"Here’s the key, you guys take their car back to Dong County, I’ll follow behind you." Wang Longhu came out of the repair shop, tossing a car key to Lin Haitao.

This repair shop was in a remote suburban area, with no villages or shops in sight. Without a car, getting back to Dong County would mean walking, which was too dangerous.

Seeing the three of them drive away, Wang Longhu then got on his motorcycle and followed closely behind them, leaving the place.

They smoothly returned to the main island of Dong County. The group chose not to drive the car they had brought over from the repair shop back home. Instead, they stopped at a place without surveillance to get out and walk a distance before hailing a taxi.

At the entrance to the residential area.

Wang Longhu took off his helmet while sitting on his motorcycle, feeling particularly cheerful.

After today’s actual combat, he could confirm that ordinary people, unless having an overwhelming number advantage, absolutely could not be a match for him.

In the face of Ming Jin, no ordinary person could withstand two moves from Wang Longhu. This wasn’t about martial arts enhancement anymore, it was sheer strength domination.

Why do martial artists sometimes trade dozens of moves without a clear winner? It’s because the punching power is too weak.

You land a punch on your opponent, but the impact isn’t enough to render them incapable of fighting, so you have to keep exchanging blows until someone gets hurt and loses.

Meanwhile, a Ming Jin punch from Wang Longhu could be as light as over six hundred pounds, or over a thousand pounds at full force, making it impossible for anyone to take it.

With this, Wang Longhu was essentially invincible in the mundane world.

If this were the time when he returned to Dong County, Wang Longhu would be thrilled, but now that he knows there’s Dark Force after Ming Jin, and Huajin after Dark Force,

he doesn’t care as much about his current strength. freewёbnoνel.com

There’s always someone better out there, and if Ming Jin is already this invincible, what would the power of Dark Force and Huajin be?

During the Republic, Xingyi Boxing Grandmaster Guo Yunshen practiced martial arts with stillness like Mount Tai, and movements like a flying bird.

When faced with unexpected situations, as long as he saw and heard it, he could dodge no matter how fast his opponent’s punches and sticks were.

Once Guo Yunshen wanted to test his skills, having five strong men each hold a staff, one end pressed against Guo Yunshen’s abdomen. He then twisted his waist, knocking the five men a yard away.

These legendary feats are beyond what the current Wang Longhu can do, which means he’s still far from the master predecessors on his martial arts path and needs to keep progressing and working hard.

"I’ve scratched the surface of Dark Force practice; the next thing to pursue is mastering the basics of Dark Force, perhaps this will be the key to breaking my 2.00 physical limit." Wang Longhu held his helmet to his chest, looking at a still white cloud in the sky, he thought.

At this moment, a taxi pulled up at the entrance to the residential area, from which Lin Haitao and the others alighted.

Seeing that they were safely home, Wang Longhu was relieved, feeling that his assistance this time had been a perfect conclusion.

"Thank you, Ah Hu." Ye Yuanpei said earnestly.

"No problem, we’re all friends. But Yuanpei and Haitao, I can help you once, but it doesn’t mean I can help every time. The things you’re doing now; you know they’re illegal, right? As friends from middle school, I sincerely advise you to stop as soon as you can, while there’s still time. It’s not too late to get into legitimate work." Wang Longhu sighed.

"I know, I’ve actually had this idea for a long time, but I’ve never settled down. I wanted to earn a little more money. After this incident, it’s woken me up, and I won’t get involved in these crooked ways anymore." Ye Yuanpei nodded sincerely.

As the saying goes, you may know a face but not the heart. Even with his former best friends, Wang Longhu couldn’t see through Ye Yuanpei’s true intentions.

All he could say was that he had done what he could and advised what he could as a friend, doing his utmost. In the end, whether Ye Yuanpei truly turns over a new leaf, Wang Longhu doesn’t know, nor will he interfere.

They’re all adults now with their own thoughts and must be responsible for their decisions.
