Chapter 91: I Killed You Without Taking Responsibility, Do You Believe Me?

"Bang!"

A dull thud.

A-Jie was kicked hard and sent flying, sliding several meters across the muddy ground littered with gravel before barely coming to a stop.

"You ungrateful piece of trash!"

The bald, burly man approached with a sneer, his eyes full of mockery:

"How many times do I have to say it?"

"Want to get in? Fine! Pay up!"

"One hundred thousand for the carry fee. Miss a single cent, and I'll cripple your hand today!"

"I... I won't pay!"

A-Jie gritted his teeth, forcing the words out between his clenched jaws:

"This is a public area... Why... why should we give you money?"

"I bought this scroll... We have the ability to clear the Team Fuben ourselves. Why should we pay you for a carry?"

"Why?"

The bald, burly man acted as if he'd heard the biggest joke in the world, laughing loudly at the guild members around him:

"Brothers, this kid is asking 'why'?"

"Hahahaha..."

A burst of raucous laughter erupted from the crowd.

The bald, burly man's laughter stopped abruptly, his eyes turning utterly sinister:

"Kid, in this territory, our Wild Shark Guild is heaven. What we say is the rule!"

"If I say you need a carry, then you need one."

"Either pay up, or... you won't be needing this hand either."

With those words.

The bald, burly man suddenly raised his right leg, a yellowish earth-colored light flaring up.

Skill 【Rock-Shattering Kick】!

If that kick landed solidly, forget about hand bones; even steel would be crushed into an iron pancake.

The onlookers around them all covered their eyes, unable to bear watching.

This was the tragedy of ordinary people in this area—those with no background and no strength.

A-Jie closed his eyes in despair.

Sister...

Big brother is useless...

Just then,

A dazzling Jin Guang shield unfolded in front of A-Jie.

"Clang—!!!"

The bald, burly man's heavy, forceful kick struck the golden giant shield that had appeared out of thin air.

However, he, with a level as high as 45, only felt a slight numbness in the sole of his foot; his stance didn't even waver.

He withdrew his foot somewhat surprised, looking with interest toward the side.

Two young women were slowly approaching.

The girl on the left was petite, holding a giant shield radiating a holy aura in her left hand, while her right hand gripped a knight's sword.

"As professionals, bullying the weak... don't you feel ashamed?"

Chu Lingxuan's voice sounded somewhat weak, yet unusually firm.

And beside her.

Han Mengyao held a silver long spear in one hand, the spearhead pointing diagonally at the ground, her silver hair fluttering slightly in the wind.

She swept a cold glance over these people, a sneer curling her lips:

"Ashamed?"

"Talking about shame with a bunch of hominids? You're giving them too much credit."

"All muscle, no brains. Besides bullying the weak, this bunch of trash can only find a sense of existence here."

With these words, the entire scene fell deathly silent.

Those onlookers who had been watching the spectacle one by one sucked in a sharp breath of cold air.

This young Miss...

Her tongue is so poisonous!

Here, she actually dared to call the people of the Wild Shark Guild "hominids" and "trash"?

The smile on the bald, burly man's face vanished instantly.

He narrowed his eyes and silently cast a 【Scout Skill】 toward them.

The next second, he froze.

"Hmm? Where did an over-the-river dragon come from? Turns out they're just two wild kittens who just weaned."

The bald, burly man's apprehension in his heart instantly dissipated by more than half.

The average level of their guild members was above 40, and the bald, burly man's level had even reached 45.

This huge level gap was an uncrossable chasm.

Even the so-called SSS-class Light-class profession could not bridge it.

At this moment, A-Jie, lying on the ground, clearly saw the newcomers; they were the very ones who had rented his vehicle.

"Run quickly! You can't beat them! This is my own business; don't throw yourselves into it!"

A Jie struggled, shouting loudly.

He also knew clearly that facing a level 40 with level 20 was almost suicide, even for the most top-tier, most top-tier geniuses.

"Run?"

The bald, burly man snorted coldly. "In this territory, if I haven't nodded, even the King of Heaven himself must leave something behind for me!"

"Brothers! Surround them!"

At his command.

Dozens of members of the Frenzied Shark Guild closed in with sinister grins.

Just then,

"Move aside."

A calm yet dignified voice rang out.

Everyone instinctively turned their heads to look.

They saw three figures parting the crowd and walking forward slowly.

Walking in front was an old man who looked refined and scholarly.

Behind him, on the left, followed a young girl with pink twin-tails, currently glaring angrily at those guild members.

On the right was a young man with his hands in his pockets, looking somewhat lazy.

Xu Wenchang's gaze swept over that group of ferocious thugs, finally landing on the bald, burly man, and he spoke lightly:

"When did the land of the Dragon Nation become your private property?"

The bald, burly man frowned, just about to open his mouth and curse.

But he was, after all, an old hand who had been mixing in the world for years, and he instinctively cast a 【Scout Technique】 first.

Upon seeing this, his entire body suddenly stiffened, his pupils contracting violently.

This old man, who looked weak and unable to withstand the wind, was actually a top-tier powerhouse as high as level 88!

An existence of this level could instantly kill all the guild members here!

However, the bald, burly man quickly forced himself to calm down.

"Senior, this is a matter for our Frenzied Shark Guild."

"Our guild also has several experts at level 80; even the Guild Master is a powerhouse at level 82."

"Senior's strength is indeed great, but to offend us, the Frenzied Shark Guild, for a few strangers, shouldn't you think it through clearly?"

The bald, burly man gritted his teeth, his tone carrying a hint of threat.

In his view, there were many experts in the guild, and giving each other face was the norm.

No one would offend a local gangster guild possessing several level 80 experts for a few lowly ants.

However.

Xu Wenchang smiled.

He took out a badge and pinned it to his chest.

A five-clawed golden dragon coiled around a sharp sword, gleaming brilliantly under the sunlight.

At the same time.

Lin Mo and Han Mengqing also took out identical badges from their pockets and pinned them to their chests.

Seeing this, Han Mengyao and Chu Lingxuan in front exchanged a glance and silently took out that golden badge representing their identity.

Five badges shone simultaneously.

At this moment, an invisible pressure instantly enveloped the entire scene.

The golden dragon on the badge seemed to come alive, carrying a majesty that despised all living beings.

"That is..."

"A five-clawed golden dragon coiled around a sword! That's right, it's a Long Xu Ban!"

"What?! A Long Xu Ban? Damn, has the National Team stepped in?"

"That's right, absolutely right; only the National Direct Elite Dragon Guard Army and the Long Xu Ban are qualified to wear such badges!"

"No wonder... no wonder those two young girls dared to go head-to-head with the Frenzied Shark Guild... is this their confidence?"

In the crowd, panic instantly erupted.

"Dragon Guard Army? Long Xu Ban?"

The bald, burly man's legs went weak, his lips trembling:

"Impossible... how could these people come to such a ghost place? Fake! It must be fake! Do you dare to impersonate state privileged personnel?"

He shouted, as if only by making his voice loud enough could he cover the fear in his heart.

"Fake?"

A curve formed at the corner of Xu Wenchang's mouth.

He slowly raised both hands.

Buzz—!!!

Dark golden light flashed.

A pair of gauntlets with an ancient design, covered in dragon scale patterns, covered his hands.

The moment the gauntlets appeared, the surrounding space trembled faintly, as if unable to bear this terrifying power.

"Holy crap... that... that is..."

"That is the 【Heaven-Shaking Dragon God Gauntlets】! It is the unique exclusive weapon of the 【Dragon Fist】 class! In the entire Dragon Nation, only one person possesses it!"

"Xu Wenchang, a member of the Dragon Guard Army and concurrently a teacher of the Long Xu Ban!"

The crowd instantly erupted into chaos.

If badges could be forged, this unique, exclusive weapon was absolutely impossible to fake!

This was Long Xu Ban!

A genuine member of the National Team!

Seeing this scene, the bald, burly man was utterly desperate, his entire body trembling uncontrollably.

Xu Wenchang lightly rotated his wrist.

His tone was calm, yet it carried an oppressive, domineering aura that made one suffocate:

"Now, do you still think it's fake?"

"The bearer of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon badge may execute first and report later; this is a special privilege granted by the Dragon Authority."

"If I kill you right here today, I won't even need to file a report or bear any responsibility."

"Do you believe me?"

The bald, burly man felt that mountain-like killing intent.

Cold sweat had long soaked through his back.

He believed.

He truly believed.
