Chapter 171: Satisfying You

"Snap!"

Shen Qi's wrist was grabbed by Long Yi with ease; Shen Qi was stunned, then instantly enraged.

The next second, Shen Qi channeled his True Qi, clenched his five fingers into a fist, and struck toward Long Yi's chest, pushing against the hand that held his wrist.

Long Yi was unhurried and also channeled his True Qi.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the two streams of True Qi collided, emitting a sharp, explosive sound; a True Qi Shockwave spread in all directions, causing all the room's decorations and furnishings to topple over and shatter.

"Ah!!!"

The beautiful girls were pressed so hard by the waves of True Qi that they couldn't catch their breath, all screaming in terror.

Jiang Kui and his underlings all hid behind Long Yi, and as a result, they were completely unharmed.

Chen Che let the blast of air rush toward his face, squinting as he sized up Long Yi, taking in the latter's strength and realm at a glance.

"Ah!!!"

Shen Qi had not expected that even after using all the True Qi in his body, he still could not shake Long Yi in the slightest; that arm gripping his wrist did not even tremble!

Shen Qi roared wildly, channeling his True Qi to the maximum and adding his other hand, turning his original punching stance into a pure test of strength.

A look of disdainful mockery curled the corners of Long Yi's mouth as he sneered, "To dare to show off your meager skills before me with only the cultivation of an Innate True Person—you are far too overconfident! Ha!"

Long Yi let out a violent shout, gathered True Qi into his arm, and the moment he released Shen Qi's wrist, he clenched his fist and struck.

Shen Qi was shocked and immediately pulled back his arm to block.

"Bang!"

A muffled sound exploded; Long Yi's punch struck the arm Shen Qi was using to block, sending Shen Qi flying directly backward.

Shen Qi's feet left the ground as he flew backward, but before he could flip over, Chen Che lunged forward in a flash, grabbed his shoulder, and pulled him back to the ground.

"You little brat, I'll kill you!"

Shen Qi stood steady and immediately flew into a rage, about to pounce on Long Yi once again.

Chen Che grabbed him and shouted, "Stand down! You are no match for him; you should be clear about that!"

Shen Qi was stunned and lowered his head in shame; of course, he was clear about it.

He had used all his strength and failed to shake the opponent in the slightest, only to be sent flying by a single punch.

If Chen Che hadn't acted in time, he might have already slammed into the ceiling by now.

"Master, I am useless!"

Shen Qi said with his head hanging low, filled with self-reproach and panic.

Chen Che shook his head and said, "You do indeed need to practice more, but you cannot be blamed for this."

The reason Shen Qi became a Martial Artist was because he had a Contract with Chen Che.

This Contract allowed Shen Qi to become a Martial Artist, and his strength realm could reach about half of Chen Che's own strength realm.

Currently, the realm Chen Che could display was that of a Postnatal Grandmaster; if Shen Qi could train diligently and enhance his body's capacity to bear the load, the Contract Technique could maximize the amount of True Qi "borrowed" from Chen Che's body for him to use.

Unfortunately, Shen Qi had been too busy during this period and had no time to cultivate, causing his realm to remain at that of an Innate True Person.

And through the exchange between Long Yi and Shen Qi just now, Chen Che had also discerned Long Yi's realm: an Innate Master.

With this kind of gap, there was no way Shen Qi could ever defeat Long Yi.

"It seems Boss Chen still has a good eye."

Once Jiang Kui confirmed there was no danger, he emerged from behind Long Yi, looking at Chen Che with an arrogant and insufferable expression: "I truly didn't expect that the tiny Qibao Association would dare to lay a hand on me. However, I am a tolerant person and won't hit back, but we should still discuss the matter of compensation."

Chen Che raised an eyebrow, looking at Jiang Kui with interest, and asked, "What compensation?"

"We came here to spend money. As a result, we were first treated to a run-down room, the wine was no good, and the girls were no good either. And just now, Shen Qi actually wanted to lay a hand on a customer! You tell me, shouldn't there be compensation for this mental distress?"

Jiang Kui wore a shameless expression.

Chen Che was so angry he laughed and asked, "How much money do you want?"

Jiang Kui pretended to think about it, held up his hand to make a 'seven' gesture, and said, "There are seven of us here, and each person needs compensation. I won't bully you; just pay seven million!"

"Pah!"

Shen Qi couldn't listen anymore and said indignantly, "Jiang Kui, don't go too far!"

"So what if I am going too far?"

Jiang Kui put his hands on his hips, lifted his chin, repeated his previous words, and provoked, "If you're not convinced, come and hit me!"

Shen Qi clenched his fists and was about to step forward, but after glancing at Long Yi, he retreated again.

He knew very well that he was no match for Long Yi; acting rashly would only bring humiliation upon himself.

Seeing Shen Qi step forward and then retreat, Jiang Kui and the others laughed arrogantly once more.

"Young Master, look, he retreated again. This look of being unable to stand you but being unable to do anything about you, Young Master, is truly hilarious!"

"That's right, Young Master, people should know their own limitations. The Qibao Association might be able to throw its weight around in Shanghai, but once they reach Jinling, they are just local dogs that have to tuck their tails between their legs to survive!"

"Young Master, don't waste your breath on them; just smash the shop and let them crawl back to Shanghai with their pants off!"

Swish!

Hearing the words of Jiang Kui and his group, the expressions of the girls in the corner changed once again.

They were all from Jinling and knew the Scorpion Society's style of conduct all too well.

They weren't worried or concerned about what would happen to Chen Che and Shen Qi; they were worried about themselves.

Because in the past, there had been instances where members of the Scorpion Society annexed other groups, and the women within those groups were all brutally ravaged and humiliated, with some even being sold abroad!

Thinking of this, they were all terrified, fearing that after Jiang Kui and his men drove Chen Che and Shen Qi away, they would turn their attention to them.

At this moment, intense regret welled up in their hearts—regret for coming here to work!

Now, not only were they facing unemployment, but they might even lose their lives!

"Heard that? My friends won't forgive you. But I am magnanimous, so I can let it slide."

Jiang Kui pointed at Chen Che and Shen Qi and said, "As long as you take out seven million and then kneel down and kowtow three times to each of us, I can spare you."

"Ha!"

Chen Che looked at the arrogant youth in front of him who was at most twenty years old and couldn't help but sneer, "If you don't study hard and instead learn to hang out in the underworld, a person like you is just asking for a beating."

Jiang Kui was stunned, looking at Chen Che in disbelief, then glanced at Long Yi, his expression as if to say: "Can't you see the situation clearly? I have Long Yi on my side, you can't beat us! How dare you talk to me like that?"

"Are you crazy? Try hitting me and see what happens?"

Jiang Kui provoked him again.

However,

This time Chen Che walked straight over with a cold laugh: "As you wish!"

Jiang Kui was startled, not expecting that Chen Che would actually walk back.

He immediately hid behind Long Yi, and surrounded by his lackeys, he poked his head out to check the situation.

Long Yi's tall and burly body blocked the way in front of Jiang Kui; seeing Chen Che walking straight toward him, he sneered in disdain, immediately released his True Qi, and reached out to grab Chen Che.

"Smack!"

Before Long Yi's hand could grab Chen Che, Chen Che slapped him across the face first.

Chen Che's movement was very casual and indifferent, as if he had done a trivial thing, and he didn't even stop his pace.

However, when the back of Chen Che's hand struck Long Yi's face, Long Yi's disdainful expression froze, followed by ferocity, distortion, and pain; many changes were completed in an instant.

The next second, the surging True Qi on Long Yi's body dissipated in an instant, and his whole body flew out at high speed, spinning three hundred and sixty degrees, before slamming into the beautifully decorated wall with a crash and becoming embedded in it.

"Boom!"

In less than two seconds, Long Yi fell out of the wall again and hit the ground, making a dull thud.

"Im... impossible..."

Long Yi widened his eyes, looked at Chen Che with a face full of shock and disbelief, and then rolled his eyes back and passed out.

Except for Shen Qi, Jiang Kui and the others, along with the girls hiding in the corner, were all dumbfounded, their faces full of astonishment, as if they had seen a hallucination; the scene before their eyes was so unreal!

"Whoosh!"

Jiang Kui suddenly shivered, a chill shooting straight up his spine to his crown; the shocked expression he hadn't yet recovered from suddenly froze, transforming into terror and horror.

Because, Chen Che had arrived in front of him!
