Who wants to become a god? Aren't you all forcing me?

#268 - Chapter 267 The Four Evils Gather

Wei Wen's bent elbow swung backward, suddenly straightening at a certain moment. His clenched fist shot out like a bullet, carrying unmatched momentum. The terrifying power caused the air to emit a sharp wail.

Li Chenqiu looked up, his gaze calmly fixed on the rapidly enlarging fist. The fierce wind it generated whipped his hair wildly.

Bang!

A visible shockwave roared out, causing the titanium alloy walls to vibrate slightly.

"Success!"

Wei Wen's face lit up with joy, but the thought lasted only an instant. He saw his fist slam into the wall.

"You're quite strong. You even left a fist-shaped dent in this titanium alloy plate," Li Chenqiu said, standing beside Wei Wen, offering sincere praise.

Wei Wen's heart leaped. Ignoring his shock, he hastily raised his elbow and smashed it towards Li Chenqiu, simultaneously driving his entire body forward in a fierce charge like a crazed bull!

This time, Li Chenqiu didn't dodge. He had a rough idea of where his strength lay.

Li Chenqiu's toes dug in, and powerful force traveled from his legs to his hips, converging in his left arm. As Li Chenqiu swung his arm and clenched his fist, it roared out like a flood!

The air between them instantly exploded, fist and elbow colliding head-on.

Bang!

A deafening sound erupted, and cold air surged out in waves. The iron chains hanging from the ceiling jingled like wind chimes.

"Pfft—"

Wei Wen hunched over, drawing a series of afterimages in the air as he skidded along the ground for nearly a hundred meters before slamming into the wall with a "bang!" The titanium alloy wall was directly crushed into a shallow pit.

Wei Wen lowered his head, his face as pale as snow. He clutched his chest, vomiting large mouthfuls of blood. His left arm was bent at an unnatural angle, making him look utterly miserable.

Standing in the distance, Li Chenqiu's figure swayed before he vanished from the spot like a ghost, flashing in front of Wei Wen and kicking him hard in the chest and abdomen.

Bang!

"Pfft—"

Already seriously injured, Wei Wen's head lolled to the side after taking this kick, and he passed out completely.

"Ahhh!"

The woman standing at the door screamed shrilly, her legs giving way as she collapsed to the ground. The others weren't much better, each one staring at Li Chenqiu in terror, their eyes filled with deep fear.

Li Chenqiu tilted his head and held out his hand to them: "What are you waiting for? Hand over your contribution cards."

After robbing the group, Li Chenqiu had another 30 million contribution points in his card, which translated to nearly 300 million Federal currency. Ninety-five percent of it was contributed by Wei Wen.

"A Fifth Restriction Heavenly Chosen has nearly 300 million in savings. The Horse-Face who gave me money earlier was at least a top-tier Sixth Restriction Awakened, so why was it so difficult for him to come up with 500 million? Did he hide the money somewhere?"

Li Chenqiu stroked his chin, harboring deep suspicions about his angel investor, "Horse-Face."

What Li Chenqiu didn't know was that due to its geographical location, City 11 had few surrounding Awakened beasts, making it difficult to profit from hunting them. Moreover, Horse-Face used most of his money to train his subordinates, so saving 500 million was already quite impressive.

After knocking the four people unconscious, Li Chenqiu and Xiang Nanzhi swaggered out of the supermarket and returned to the Third District prison.

Because he hadn't concealed his face, the news of Li Chenqiu's return quickly spread throughout the prison.

"What? Li Chenqiu is back? I thought he was dead!"

"He was just missing. Who told you he was dead!"

"That kid offended the Fierce Tiger Gang so badly, and he still dares to come back?!"

"Hahaha, isn't it good that he's back? We'll have a show to watch!"

For a time, the name "Li Chenqiu" could be heard in every corner of the prison.

Meanwhile, inside a luxurious room, two middle-aged men, one thin and one fat, sat facing each other, each with a cigarette in his mouth, puffing out clouds of smoke.

The thinner man had a gloomy face, his eyes narrow and elongated like a venomous snake, flashing with coldness and ruthlessness.

This man was called Cao Ming, one of the five great villains of this prison, and also the leader of the Fierce Tiger Gang.

The fatter man had a peaceful face, his eyes squeezed into thin slits by his fat. At first glance, he seemed like an easygoing person, but a closer look suggested otherwise.

This man was called Liu Xuan, one of the five great villains, and the vice-leader of the Fierce Tiger Gang.

"That kid is back," Cao Ming said, his eyes lowered as he looked at Liu Xuan.

Liu Xuan leaned lazily against the sofa: "So he's back. What about it?"

Cao Ming narrowed his eyes: "Are we going to do nothing?"

Liu Xuan smiled and nodded: "We don't need to do anything. He'll come to us. As long as Ji Mu is in our hands."

"You're planning to put that kid in the deathmatch arena?" Cao Ming raised an eyebrow: "We can't kill him. You should know that, right?"

Liu Xuan tilted his head back and blew a smoke ring: "Although we can't kill this kid, publicly humiliating him in front of all the inmates is a good choice. It can also serve as a show of force."

Cao Ming smiled: "The guys below have been a little restless lately. We'll have to torture this kid properly then, to let those guys know…"

Ding-a-ling…

Cao Ming paused, looking down at the phone on the table: "Lan Pangyue?"

Cao Ming curiously answered the phone and turned on the speakerphone.

"Hello," a muffled, hoarse female voice came from the other end of the line.

Cao Ming asked: "What's the matter?"

Lan Pangyue coldly asked: "What are you planning to do to Li Chenqiu?"

"Hmm?" Cao Ming asked, puzzled: "Why are you suddenly concerned about that guy?"

Lan Pangyue was silent for a moment, then explained in detail what Li Chenqiu had done.

Cao Ming said in surprise, laughing: "What! Are you kidding me? He ate more than twenty Awakened beasts by himself?!"

"Do I look like I'm kidding?" Lan Pangyue's tone was somewhat displeased.

"Sorry, sorry. It's just a little hard to believe."

"Can you tell me now?"

"We plan to…"

Cao Ming told her their plan.

"The deathmatch arena? I'll come too. Have Jia Zhuang prepare a seat for me."

"Okay, I'll mention it to Jia Zhuang. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up…"

"Wait, do you know where my brother went?"

"Your brother? If you, his sister, don't know, how would we outsiders know?"

Liu Xuan, who was sitting next to him, stretched his head and asked: "What happened to your brother?"

"My brother… My brother said he had something to do a few days ago and went out, but that was more than ten days ago, and there's still no news…"

"He's probably been delayed by something. Your brother is so strong, nothing will happen to him."

"I hope so!"
