Chapter 10

Update Time: 2012-10-11

As Liu Qiang and Zhang Dong passed each other, Zhang Dong moved. Like a ghost, he flashed in front of Liu Ke, his left hand gracefully flipping to snatch Liu Ke's gun, while his right fist, carrying immense force, struck Liu Ke's chest.

Liu Ke was not well-prepared, and his martial arts skills were inferior to Zhang Dong's. How could he possibly dodge?

"Ah~"

Liu Ke felt as if a ten-thousand-pound hammer had struck his chest. He let out a惨叫 and flew backward, crashing into Liu Qiang behind him.

Liu Qiang was shocked and instinctively reached out to catch Liu Ke. However, Zhang Dong, following Liu Ke's flying body, leaped forward like a tiger pouncing on its prey. In a blink, he knocked Liu Qiang to the ground, his left hand prying open Liu Qiang's clenched right fist, and his right hand deeply inserted into Liu Qiang's chest.

"Ah~"

Liu Qiang screamed in agony, blood gushing out, and he struggled fiercely. However, he felt a tingling numbness all over his body, and his internal energy mysteriously disappeared. The more he struggled, the faster his internal energy vanished, and his struggles became weaker.

Zhang Dong sneered, quickly absorbing all of Liu Qiang's internal energy. Without hesitation, he snapped Liu Qiang's neck. Then, he turned his gaze to Liu Ke, who was lying on the ground, his chest caved in and his breath faint. Zhang Dong placed his hand on Liu Ke's dantian, using the Swallowing Sun technique to absorb all the internal energy Liu Ke had cultivated for decades, and then killed him.

After absorbing the internal energy of two fierce bandits, Zhang Dong felt much stronger, his body brimming with energy, and he felt like shouting out loud. Checking his martial arts value, he found it had indeed changed significantly, increasing from 85 to 200 points.

"Great, too great. My martial arts value increased by 115 points. This is like taking a plane. No matter how powerful the two bandits were, they were just making a bride for me." Zhang Dong sighed in his heart. With the life experiences and memories of Jiangshan, he naturally felt no discomfort from killing, as if he had just killed two chickens.

Liu Kui, Gao Qian, and Chen Xiaojiao, hiding on the hill, clearly saw the entire process of Zhang Dong killing the two bandits.

Liu Kui jumped up like a madman, waving his fists and shouting, "Brother Dong is too powerful, too terrifying, like a superman. He was always low-key, but now we see he can stabilize the country with his martial arts and govern the state with his wisdom."

Chen Xiaojiao's eyes were full of sparkling stars, and her face was filled with admiration.

Gao Qian was also completely in awe of Zhang Dong. She twisted Liu Kui's waist and said, "Brother Dong is a true hidden dragon, while you are just a small worm. From today on, you must learn from Brother Dong, or else, or else, I won't be with you."

Liu Kui, not one to back down, retorted, "Although I'm not as good as Brother Dong, I'm still very powerful. Think about it, if I were a small worm, how could I be Brother Dong's close friend?"

Gao Qian was both angry and amused, saying, "I think you're a three-hundred-pound wild boar, with only a sharp mouth."

...

Zhang Dong calmly wiped the blood from his hands on the bodies of the two bandits, took out Chen Xiaojiao's phone, and redialed. He said calmly, "Brother-in-law, the two bandits are dead. Bring your people to collect the bodies."

"Really?"

"Of course, it's real," Zhang Dong said irritably.

"Great, I'll be right over."

Zhang Dong hung up the phone and turned to look at the three people who were cheering and running down the hill.

"Brother Dong, you're amazing. I want you to protect me for life," Chen Xiaojiao said, her face flushed with emotion as she threw herself into Zhang Dong's arms.

"Call me husband, got it?" Zhang Dong felt the soft and fragrant embrace but still scolded her.

"Husband~" Chen Xiaojiao said in a sweet voice.

Zhang Dong smiled brightly, but his smile soon froze on his face because he suddenly noticed that Chen Dong had brought four police officers, who had already arrived nearby. They glared at him and said, "Kid, not only are your martial arts skills impressive, but your skills with women are also top-notch."

"Brother, my business is none of yours," Chen Xiaojiao said, blushing and stepping out of Zhang Dong's embrace, her hands on her hips.

Chen Dong's forehead was marked with two black lines, and he panted heavily, staring at Zhang Dong with a fierce look. He warned, "Kid, if you dare to abandon my sister, I won't let you off."

"Brother-in-law, you're worrying about nothing," Zhang Dong said with a strange smile. "You should focus on the aftermath."

Chen Dong looked at the bodies of the two bandits with a strange expression, feeling many emotions. Liu Qiang and Liu Ke were powerful and had wreaked havoc for years, but the police had failed to capture them for five years. It was unbelievable that they were killed by a twenty-year-old student. How strong is Zhang Dong? Will he really become my brother-in-law?

A smile gradually appeared on his face, and he said, "Come with me to the police station and explain everything."

"No. I don't like fame, and I'm worried about retaliation from the bandits' accomplices. You can take all the credit," Zhang Dong firmly refused.

"But there's a million-dollar reward," Chen Dong said regretfully.

"But life is more important," Zhang Dong said, then quickly led the three people up the hill to hide, not wanting to be seen by other police officers.

Chen Dong felt a headache. How could he explain the cause of the bandits' deaths to his superiors?

Forget it, I'll say that I and my four subordinates killed them. Otherwise, Zhang Dong will be implicated, and my sister will become a news figure, which is not good.

He began to handle the aftermath, spending most of the night before carrying the bodies of the two bandits and their weapons and ammunition, and retreating.

Zhang Dong had to hide on the hill until dawn, almost being eaten by mosquitoes. Liu Kui and Zhang Dong's romantic dreams had already been shattered, but they still took some small advantages, kissing and hugging, with small actions.

When the police had mostly retreated, they quickly returned to the hotel on the hillside, but there were no service staff, so they had to drive away.

On the road, Chen Xiaojiao received another call and, blushing, whispered to Zhang Dong, "Husband, my parents want to invite you for dinner. Tomorrow is Saturday, and they have time. Can you come to my house in the morning?"

Zhang Dong was surprised and asked in a low voice, "Do they know about our relationship?"

"No, no. They feel you are young and promising, simple and polite, and honest and straightforward, so they want to befriend you and ask you to take care of me during my university years," Chen Xiaojiao said with a strange expression.

"Ha, your parents are really interesting," Zhang Dong laughed strangely.

"Three years of fighting, never studied a day, and didn't even flinch when killing two bandits. Honest and straightforward, simple and polite?" Gao Qian and Liu Kui burst out laughing, unable to straighten up.

"Stop laughing, drive properly," Zhang Dong scolded Liu Kui, who was laughing too much.

"Too funny, too funny~"

Liu Kui slammed on the brakes, stopping the car by the roadside, and continued to laugh loudly.

Chen Xiaojiao and Gao Qian also laughed uncontrollably, but Zhang Dong did not laugh. He took the opportunity to pull Chen Xiaojiao into his arms. How could he let such a good opportunity pass?

********************

The night was as dark as ink, and the village was silent.

Zhang Dong, sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp like lightning, and a bright smile slowly spread across his face.

After absorbing the internal energy of the two bandits yesterday, he had now completely refined it, making it truly his own. He could use it at will, and his strength had increased significantly.

If he could encounter bandits like Liu Ke every day, that would be great.

But of course, that was impossible.

Zhang Dong shook his head, dispelling the dream from his mind, and got up to slip out of the door, entering the dense forest behind the mountain. He leaped up from the ground and landed on a pine tree over ten meters high, running swiftly along the treetops, moving so fast that he turned into a black smoke, almost invisible to the eye.

When the sky began to show a hint of dawn, Zhang Dong jumped down from the treetops and started practicing his martial arts, continuing until seven o'clock. He then slowly walked back, his face deep in thought.

Now his cultivation was very regular. He practiced the Swallowing Sun technique from 11 PM to 2 AM every night, and from 5 AM to 7 AM, he practiced lightness skills and martial arts. Despite sleeping only three hours a day, he felt energetic and not at all tired.

However, this left the entire day free. What should he do with this time?

After eating breakfast at home and informing his parents, he drove Liu Kui's new car to Chun City.

Yesterday, after learning that the car belonged to Liu Kui, Zhang Dong had already set his sights on it. Although he did not have a driver's license and did not know how to drive, he forced Liu Kui to be his driving instructor after returning from Yunwu Mountain. Despite Liu Kui being exhausted, he continued until Zhang Dong had completely learned to drive, then let Liu Kui go home, while he drove the car back.

The morning was not yet hot, and he opened the car window, enjoying the cool breeze as he drove at high speed. With his cultivation of internal energy, his reaction and vision were far superior to those of an ordinary person, and his driving skills were not inferior to those of a veteran driver.

He drove at high speed to Chen Xiaojiao's house, pressed the doorbell, and today he was invited to have dinner with her parents.

The door opened, and Chen Xiaojiao, carrying a fragrant breeze, appeared at the door. Seeing Zhang Dong, her face lit up with joy, and she said, "Brother Dong, I was just about to call you."

"Call me husband!" Zhang Dong noticed no one was in the living room and said in a low voice.

"Are you crazy? My mom is at home," Chen Xiaojiao said, looking fearful.

"It's Xiao Dong. Come in, come in," Chen's mother came out of the kitchen and said warmly.

"Aunt, hello," Zhang Dong said politely.

"Good child, so polite," Chen's mother said with a smile. "Xiaojiao, take Xiao Dong to your room. This living room is a mess; I'll tidy it up."

"This is really inviting the wolf (husband) into the house," Chen Xiaojiao's face turned red, feeling both nervous and excited as she led Zhang Dong into her bedroom.

As soon as they entered the fragrant, feminine space, Zhang Dong naturally transformed from a gentleman to a wolf, his eyes burning as he pounced on the extremely alluring beauty.
