Chapter 423

Because he had let his guard down, the strange man was also relatively casual.

The strange man accidentally made too much noise himself.

Fubuki, who was sitting over there, heard the commotion here.

Fubuki was the first to shout out.

"Who, who's sneaking around over there!" Fubuki shouted loudly in that direction.

Startled by Fubuki's voice, the strange man jumped straight up.

This made even more noise, and everyone looked toward the strange man's direction at once.

Seeing that he had been discovered, the strange man lifted his leg and prepared to run.

Tatsumaki leapt up, landing in front of the strange man and blocking his escape.

"Hey, following us all this way—aren't you tired?" Luo En asked with his arms crossed, holding back a laugh.

Only now did the strange man realize he had been known all along; they had already spotted him, yet had deliberately acted this way.

The strange man grew anxious.

He threw a punch at Tatsumaki.

Fortunately, Tatsumaki reacted quickly—spinning around, she dodged his fist, and with a roundhouse kick, sent the strange man crashing to the ground.

"Yo, trying to sneak-attack, are we? That's not a good habit!" Tatsumaki said, looking at the strange man with utter disdain.

And that strange man just sat sprawled on the ground.

Seeing this, Fubuki hurried over to join the fun.

"You ugly freak, how come you're everywhere? What's your real purpose in following us!"

The strange man said nothing, just leapt up and tried to take Fubuki hostage.

Fubuki may be a bit weak, but she's not that dumb—she nimbly dodged away.

The strange man lunged at Fubuki but caught nothing but air.

Luo En stepped forward, pulled Fubuki back, then walked out himself to block the strange man.

Seeing Luo En step out, the strange man didn't dare act rashly again.

After all, this guy wasn't as easy to handle as Fubuki—three of himself would still be wise to back off.

"Do you want me to force you to talk, or are you going to speak up on your own and explain what's going on!" Luo En said in a dangerous tone.

If this strange man didn't obey, Luo En naturally wouldn't be polite with him.

Although the strange man knew how powerful Luo En was, he still wanted to struggle—what if this one struggle turned out fine?

Thinking this, the strange man didn't care who was in front of him; he threw a punch to break free and prepared to run.

Luo En grabbed his shoulder in one swift motion.

With a "smack," the strange man was slammed onto the ground by Luo En.

Not willing to be outdone, the strange man leapt into the air and threw a punch at Luo En.

Luo En flipped over and caught the strange man's fist with his palm.

The strange man tried to pull his fist back, but Luo En held it in a death grip—he yanked hard but couldn't free it.

Anxious, the strange man threw his other punch.

But that punch was also firmly caught by Luo En.

Luo En swung both hands and hurled the strange man three meters away.

The strange man slammed directly into the wall.

Luo En walked over leisurely and asked, "Are you going to talk, or should I keep going?"

The strange man stared hard at Luo En, but refused to open his mouth.

Setting everything else aside, this strange man was quite loyal—even beaten into this state by Luo En, he still wouldn't betray the Heterodox God.

Luo En's anger flared up instantly; what he hated most was people playing dirty tricks, and this Heterodox God Tenten always loved to pull this kind of stunt on him.

"Not going to talk, huh?"

Luo En was giving him one last chance.

That strange man still didn't make a sound.

Luo En kicked out. The strange man was kicked straight from this wall into another wall.

The strange man scraped across the ground, grinding against the stone path.

The sharp stones ground the strange man so painfully that his entire face scrunched up.

Luo En raised his foot, faking a kicking motion.

"I'll talk, I'll talk!" the strange man said, clutching his stomach that Luo En had kicked, gasping for air.

Luo En smiled wickedly and said, "Wouldn't it have been better to do this earlier!"

Seeing the strange man scared out of his slippers, Luo En lowered his foot—he had only wanted to scare him a little.

"It was all on the Heterodox God's orders! He wanted to ambush Luo En, so he had Fubuki kidnapped! Just to restrain Luo En!"

The strange man said, trembling.

Luo En didn't believe the Heterodox God could come up with this idea? Although the Heterodox God liked playing dirty, he mainly couldn't think of this method.

No matter how dirty his tricks, they were still stupidly dirty—so there must be someone behind the scenes.

"Are you sure this was the Heterodox God acting alone?"

Luo En's words weren't a question mark, but a period. He knew this strange man wouldn't tell the truth.

"Yes!"

The strange man insisted firmly that it was only the Heterodox God's doing.

Luo En stopped pressing him—as long as the Heterodox God showed up, he'd find out.
