Chapter 2008: The Essence of the Matter
And just at this moment, a flash of black Qi appeared within the eyeball, his consciousness suddenly stiffened, and immediately after, through this eyeball, he seemed to see an Otherworldly Realm.
A world filled with darkness everywhere, a world without any light.
In this world, death was everywhere; apart from black and white, the world had no other colors.
This thing could actually drag a person's consciousness into the abyss, but for Chen Yu, it was only a brief moment of falling into it, and then he reacted quickly.
He lifted his head abruptly, his eyes carrying a chilling coldness, and his Mind Power surged forward; with a "hum," the sound of glass shattering and tearing rang out.
Immediately following, the group of people surrounding him were sent flying backward involuntarily; they crashed into numerous tables and chairs with a thud, then fell to the ground in a heap.
A perfectly fine bar was turned into a chaotic mess by Chen Yu's wave of impact.
The burly man struggled to stand up; the skin on his body had been wounded by the shockwave, and he was covered in blood from head to toe.
He stared fixedly at Chen Yu and roared, "Kill him, kill him at all costs."
The burly man was also enraged; although he was not the owner of the bar, he was, at any rate, the person in charge here.
He had never seen an outsider be so arrogant.
The people who had been knocked to the ground by this wave of Divine Sense struggled to get up; they pulled weapons from their waists one after another, intending to fight Chen Yu to the death.
Chen Yu sneered, his right hand grasping into the void in front of him, and a curtain of light appeared before his palm, like a transparent barrier.
In that instant, the bar seemed to turn into a vacuum; all movements slowed down, and when the bullets left the chambers, there was not a sound.
It was as if it were a frozen world; even the bullets fired floated over slowly, blocked outside by the transparent light shield in front of Chen Yu's palm.
"Overestimating your capabilities." Chen Yu grinned and waved his right hand casually.
*Pu, pu, pu*, the bullets reflected back, and this frozen world seemed to be released in that instant.
A burst of screams rang out, and with a thud, a group of people were sent flying.
The liquor in the bar shattered all over the floor, broken glass piled up layer by layer, and the entire bar was in a state of utter disarray.
That burly man's strength was indeed decent; when everyone else fell to the ground unable to stand, he actually struggled to get up.
Of course, even though he stood up, he was still covered in blood.
"You are the manager inside the bar, right?" Chen Yu said with a smile, "Otherwise, you wouldn't have the strength to stand up again."
"Who... exactly are you?" the burly man growled through gritted teeth.
For so many years, he had truly never seen an outsider dare to cause trouble in the district; it had never happened.
Chen Yu was the first, but he really couldn't tell that such a frail-looking young man would have such strong power.
"You all call me an outsider, so who do you say I am?" Chen Yu said with a faint smile, "Just treat me as a traveler passing through."
"What exactly do you want?" The burly man knelt to the ground with a thud; his strength was no longer enough to support him standing.
"We actually have no intention of hurting anyone; I really just wanted to come in for a drink, truly." Chen Yu looked helpless.
"I don't want to hit people either, but you insist on offering your left cheek to be hit, and after the left cheek is hit, you beg me to hit your right cheek; that isn't appropriate, really." Chen Yu said with a straight face.
Yes, he really only came here this time to avoid some things, and he never thought about dealing with anyone.
But these guys insisted on forcing Chen Yu to deal with them; that was these guys' fault.
"This is our rule." The burly man roared, "Everyone who comes to our bar must drink a cup of Satan; it was ordered by our boss."
"Then let him come out and see me." Chen Yu smiled, "I will reason with him properly."
"Our boss never reasons with anyone." The burly man said through gritted teeth.
"Then I will use my fists to reason with him." Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "In this world, nothing is greater than fists."
"You people have no qualifications to see him." The burly man was angry and anxious.
To him, the boss was an existence akin to faith.
"Is that so? It's my fault; it seems I didn't beat you hard enough just now." Chen Yu grinned and slapped him across the face.
The burly man fell to the ground at the sound, and immediately after, Chen Yu's fists rained down on him.
This guy was beaten until he screamed repeatedly, and before long, he was kneeling on the ground clutching his head and begging for mercy.
"Now should I let your boss come out to see me?" Chen Yu said with a smile.
"He will be here soon, you... better be careful." The burly man huddled to the side, feeling aggrieved.
In this district, he was known as Kuangbao Qiangsen, and his muscles were so tough that even needles couldn't pierce them.
But he never dreamed that today he would be beaten like a grandson.
"Why, could it be that he eats people?" Chen Yu glanced coldly at the burly man, scaring him into shrinking his head.
"He... really does eat people."
Accompanied by a gust of wind, the dilapidated door shook violently.
Immediately after, an elegant man walked in; the man was in a white suit and looked extremely refined.
And he was the owner of this bar, Jieni.
"Oh, my friends, it seems you have encountered some trouble today." Jieni walked into the center of the room with elegant steps.
He carefully avoided the men bleeding on the ground, walked to the very center, and frowned.
"Jieni, these two outsiders... smashed our bar." Qiangsen felt as aggrieved as a bullied little girl.
"Alright, alright, I know, don't worry Qiangsen, I will resolve this matter." Jieni smiled slightly.
He lifted his head and looked at Chen Yu; a trace of chilling coldness rose in his eyes: "Friend, coming here makes you my guest, and I am very welcoming."
"But your actions are truly a bit too excessive; if you cannot give me a reason that convinces me for today's events, then I'm sorry, you might not be able to leave this place."
"I came here to be a customer, too; I just wanted to have a drink normally, but your people couldn't even satisfy such a small request of mine."
Chen Yu said with quite a bit of helplessness: "So we... ended up like this; if it caused you trouble, then I'm sorry."
"This place of mine is a place where many people in the district like to come and spend money; you smashed my place, and then you just say 'sorry' to me?"
