Chapter 193: Ding Yang
The Power King scoffed and rushed over again. We fought intensely; I even used the techniques the old beggar had taught me, but it was still very strenuous to deal with this guy. However, he wasn't having an easy time either.
We both sustained significant injuries, especially me. I felt a terrible discomfort in my chest, as if something was about to burst out.
Seeing my state, the Power King smiled and, panting, said to me: "I see you’re about to reach your limit. If you admit defeat now, I might let you off!"
"Hmph, stop with the big talk. I see you’re not having a good time either!" I scoffed, having no intention of admitting defeat, and I wasn't stupid enough to think he would actually let me off.
He rushed over again. After so many exchanges, I discovered a clear weakness in the Power King: every time he threw a punch, his body tilted slightly. This must be a long-standing habit of his.
I aimed for this weakness. The moment he threw a punch, I dodged and struck him directly. Sure enough, the Power King didn't react in time and was knocked to the ground by my punch.
Seeing this, the surrounding crowd was incredulous; they simply couldn't believe their eyes.
"Holy crap, is this fake? The Power King actually lost?"
"The tides are turning. This Zheng Yun guy is actually this strong!"
"Ding Yang got his comeuppance this time, kicked an iron plate. This guy is usually so arrogant; now someone can finally deal with him!"
"That’s not necessarily true. The Ding family isn't to be trifled with. Although Zheng Yun is from the Zheng family, there’s no blood relation. Who knows if the Zheng family will stand up for him? After all, the Ding family’s strength is still a bit higher than the Zheng family’s!"
The Power King slowly stood up and looked at me in disbelief: "You actually discovered my weakness?"
"Is it that hard? Your weakness is too obvious; you’d notice it if you paid even a little attention!" I said indifferently.
Hearing my words, the Power King’s face turned very ugly. Finally, he sighed helplessly: "I’ve always known about this weakness, but it’s been hard to change over the years, mainly because I haven't suffered much for it. Thank you today for letting me feel the lethality of this weakness again. I lost this time; you won!"
I nodded faintly. I had no deep grudge against this guy, so I didn't want to cause him trouble. It was better to make a friend if possible; after all, having too many enemies here wasn't good.
The Power King walked over slowly and extended his hand. I shook it. The Power King smiled and said to me: "I’m very happy to have an opponent like you. By the way, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Chen Li, everyone calls me the Power King. You can call me Chen Li, or you can call me the Power King!"
I nodded with a smile and said: "Hello, my name is Zheng Yun. Very happy to meet you! Let’s spar more when we have the chance!"
"I’d love to!" After saying this, the Power King turned and left.
Only the dumbfounded Ding Yang remained. I looked at Ding Yang, then walked over slowly. Seeing me, Ding Yang retreated in fear: "What do you want? Don't come over!"
I scoffed at Ding Yang: "I told you before, if you come again, I definitely won't let you off. Since you didn't believe my words, I have to let you see whether what I say counts!"
Hearing my words, Ding Yang hurriedly said: "I’m warning you, I’m from the Ding family. If you dare to touch me, the Ding family won't let you off!"
Although his words were intimidating, I still decided to act. After all, I couldn't take back what I had said. If I let him off this time, he would definitely be even more unscrupulous next time. Besides, I felt that even if I let him off, he wouldn't necessarily let me off. This guy was petty and vengeful, and his reputation at school wasn't very good; he didn't look like someone who kept his word.
"The Ding family, I am indeed a bit worried, but that doesn't mean I’ll let you off. If I don't teach you a lesson, you’ll think I’m easy to bully!"
I walked slowly to Ding Yang, kicked him, and then gave him a beating. Honestly, I felt I was being too kind. If it were these rich kids, they’d be missing arms or legs. My beating was already very merciful.
Ding Yang was beaten quite miserably; his face and nose were crooked. He looked at me with resentment, saying in slurred speech: "I won't let you off!"
After saying this, Ding Yang was helped up and taken away.
I didn't care at all about his warning; it was obvious he wouldn't let me off.
By this time, the people on the playground were gradually leaving because school was over. I looked at Zhuge Yue, who was watching the show from the side, and said irritably: "Had enough fun watching? Not leaving yet?"
Hearing my words, Zhuge Yue smiled and said: "It’s over, time to go. Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a meal?"
"Better not. That guy already hates me enough; I don't want to provoke him further!" I said to her, speechless.
"He already hates you that much anyway, are you afraid of adding a little more?" Zhuge Yue gave me a charming smile.
"Don't, please don't. I can't handle you like this. I’m slipping away, or if Xiao Huan sees this, she’ll probably explode!"
"I already know, hmph. I said it, Brother Yang Yun is mine. Why are you pestering Brother Yang Yun all day?" I don't know when Xiao Huan arrived. There was no help for it; we shared location tracking on our phones for safety and convenience. She must have followed the location.
Xiao Huan looked at Zhuge Yue vigilantly and hugged me, fearing I would be snatched away.
Zhuge Yue laughed when she saw Xiao Huan: "Who says he’s yours? You aren't married yet, are you? Besides, look at you, you’re just a little shrimp. Why would Yang Yun marry you?"
"You’re lying! Who’s a little shrimp? I just haven't developed yet. In two years, I’ll definitely be bigger than yours!" Xiao Huan said to Zhuge Yue, furious.
Zhuge Yue was amused by Xiao Huan. I glared at Zhuge Yue irritably: "Alright, how old are you, still teasing a kid? I’m done talking nonsense with you, I’m leaving!"
Zhuge Yue nodded at me: "Alright, alright, you guys go. I should go home too!"
Xiao Huan and I returned to the Zheng family. Things were basically fine at the Zheng family because Xiao Huan and I hadn't taken a side yet, so for the time being, no one wanted to deal with us.
The Old Matriarch’s love for Xiao Huan was famous. Ever since Xiao Huan came to the Zheng family, the Old Matriarch had doted on her, granting her every wish. The usually stern Old Matriarch would always show a smile whenever she saw Xiao Huan. ===== CHAPTER 194 =====
