"Call him! Call him! He's got a gun! Hurry up and call him, kid, or when you die, they'll even dig out your guts!" A few punk-like thugs nearby egged him on.

"I have two things to say. First, I don't accept your logic. I've never had any improper thoughts about that woman of yours. Second, I hope you hurry up and apologize to me. And don't use foul language in front of me. I hate uncouth people." Ryuu Mufei looked disdainfully at the people around him.

The man holding the short knife was immediately bluffed by him. Where did this brat come from? Who does he run with? How can he be this arrogant? For the sake of his pride, he still forced himself to remain calm. But on second thought, his confidence returned. No, no one is stronger than our boss. Our boss isn't ordinary.

The thick-necked man with a gold chain beside him shouted, "Wow, you're pretty cocky. Which street do you run with, kid? Hahaha!"

"Apologize? Is there water in your brain? No, more like shit. I'm uncouth, so what? I love swearing."

"Fine. Since you're ignorant, I'll give you one more chance." With a cold expression, Ryuu Mufei continued, "What you just did was an insult to me. Hurry up and apologize. Just one 'sorry' will do."

Ryuu Mufei's voice was low, like the calm before a storm at sea.

"Are you looking to die?" The man raised his knife and charged at Ryuu Mufei. "I've never said sorry once in my life!"

"Such poor upbringing." Ryuu Mufei sighed and stood there without moving, casually glancing at the guy charging toward him.

"Heh, that kid's scared stupid. He isn't even moving." Another lackey mocked.

At that moment, the knife suddenly slashed toward Ryuu Mufei, but its tip stopped in front of him and could not thrust forward another inch.

"Why are you going easy on him at a time like this? Kill him. Our boss has got our backs, so don't be afraid." A lackey watching the show said from the side.

But the man wielding the knife answered with difficulty, "No, I don't have the strength to stab him!" No matter how hard he tried, the knife still could not pierce Ryuu Mufei, as if there were an invisible wall in front of him.

"What are you doing, idiot?" The short-haired street girl beside them complained. "I told you, if anything happens, the boss is here. What are you scared of? What are you standing around for?"

"I don't know!" The man said laboriously, sweat pouring down his face. The knife remained motionless before Ryuu Mufei. "I don't know what's going on either. I can't stab him. It feels like something's blocking me."

Ryuu Mufei smiled helplessly, then flicked his head.

With a clang, the knife flew out of the guy's hand.

"What happened? What happened?" The guy stared blankly at the knife that had flown from his hand, shocked beyond belief.

"Don't point something so dangerous at me," Ryuu Mufei said coldly.

In an instant, the group all pulled out pistols and aimed them at Ryuu Mufei's head.

"What happened? What did you do, kid?" the man with the gold chain roared. "What trick did you use?"

Although he held a pistol in his hand, it was obvious that his hand was trembling. Whether he feared the strange power Ryuu Mufei had used to knock away the knife, or feared that he was about to kill someone, his resolve was wavering.

"Those guys have guns. He's in danger." Ryuseki excitedly tried to rush out, but Lin Yingbin grabbed him.

"Wait, wait. Just watch. Don't worry for nothing."

Ryuu Mufei merely waved his hand. In the next instant, a sudden force sent several of them flying. They landed on the ground on their asses, and the guns in their hands slipped to the floor.

"What happened?" Ryuseki asked in shock. He had not even seen clearly what had happened.

"That was telekinesis, right?" Lin Yingbin observed carefully. "He's really got skills!"

"What the hell?" The man with the gold chain sat crouched on the ground, immediately grabbed a pistol beside him, and pulled the trigger at Ryuu Mufei.

"Still coming at me?" Ryuu Mufei extended his hand. In an instant, the rapidly fired bullet stopped in midair. Then, as if it had struck a wall, it began to compress and deform, gradually flattening into a thin sheet before dropping to the ground.

"Did you use some kind of sorcery?" the man with the gold chain asked timidly.

Ryuu Mufei merely smiled and did not answer.

"We really kicked an iron plate this time. What the hell are you, a ghost or a monster?" The man in sunglasses shouted at everyone, "Quick, go get the boss. There's no one our boss can't handle."

As he spoke, he also shouted at Ryuu Mufei, "If you've got guts, don't run. You'll be sorry soon enough."

"Fine. I won't run. I'll wait for you."

Ryuu Mufei watched them leave, then truly stayed there and waited.
