The Three Tigers of Guangdong: Xu Zhen!
"Teach me?"
Gu Shaoshang narrowed his eyes slightly. With his sense of smell, he could detect the faint scent of blood on the switchblades. Clearly, these little thugs were not merely trying to intimidate him—they had truly used knives before!
"Cripple his hands and throw him onto the road!"
Four or five thugs lunged at Gu Shaoshang with vicious grins, their knives stabbing straight at him.
Boom!
Gu Shaoshang's narrowed eyes suddenly flew open, flashing with cold light.
He stomped down hard! The ground shuddered like ocean waves, and cracks spread through the solid concrete!
Then he leaned forward and launched into a tiger pounce!
His momentum was ferocious, the gale around him rolling like a tiger bursting from its wooden cage.
This claw strike could leave five holes even in hardwood or stone, let alone a human body! His Tiger Claw flicked across the wrists of the thugs one after another.
"Ah!"
Amid several miserable screams, the switchblades fell from the thugs' hands. Their wrists were dripping with blood as they clutched them and howled in agony!
Gu Shaoshang's Eagle Claw had directly severed the major tendons in their right hands!
Step! Step! Step!
Gu Shaoshang strode forward, merciless in his attacks. His arms lashed down like steel whips, cracking through the air.
Before the thugs could even see what had happened, pain exploded in their wrists, and Gu Shaoshang knocked them to the ground.
"Big brother! Big brother! We admit defeat! Please spare us!"
When the yellow-haired leader saw Gu Shaoshang raise his arm again, he immediately begged for mercy.
"I have a few questions for you." Gu Shaoshang swept his cold gaze over them.
The thugs sprawled on the ground scrambled backward, terrified of taking another punch.
Gu Shaoshang's single-whip strikes had not used much force, but they were far from pleasant. The thugs felt as though needles were stabbing every inch of their bodies. There was nowhere that did not hurt!
"Our boss is Qin Maojiao! He's the disciple of Xu Zhen, one of the Three Tigers of Guangdong!" The thug still held onto a sliver of hope, trying to use Xu Zhen's name to frighten Gu Shaoshang.
"Xu Zhen! A top boxing expert along the southeastern coast, undefeated in the ring. Ruthless and vicious, he never left survivors. He was listed among the Three Tigers of Guangdong and nicknamed the Saint of Small Arms."
"He excels at Tongbei Fist, Pigua, Chuo Jiao, Hong Quan, and more. He made his way through the underground worlds of the South Ocean, Thailand, Vietnam, and Myanmar. He started out fighting black-market boxing matches, with an illustrious record and a fearsome reputation. Later, he went legitimate and founded his own group, thriving in both the underworld and legitimate circles. Rumor had it that he was even connected to the Japanese, secretly trafficking drugs..."
His thoughts raced as all kinds of information about Xu Zhen surfaced in his mind.
For a big shot worth hundreds of millions, someone who had long since secretly transitioned into legitimate business, why would his disciple care about robbing working men of such paltry sums?
"You're still not being honest!"
Gu Shaoshang sneered, then stomped down and twisted his foot! The yellow-haired man's palm was instantly crushed into pulp!
"Ah!"
The fingers were connected to the heart. Even a small cut hurt unbearably, let alone this? The yellow-haired man rolled around wildly on the ground, tears and snot streaming down his face as he shrieked like a dying ghost!
"We really didn't lie! Everything we said is true!"
Frightened out of their wits by the yellow-haired man's miserable state, the other thugs spilled everything the moment Gu Shaoshang's gaze landed on them.
Someone had apparently called the police. The distant wail of sirens sounded out, and unwilling to deal with the police, Gu Shaoshang tapped his feet and vanished into the crowd.
As for those thugs, Gu Shaoshang had damaged their bones and tendons. Forget robbery and theft—they would have to worry about breaking bones even if they walked a little too fast!
They could forget about committing crimes for the rest of their lives.
There are still five days before the kidnappers notify Zhao Aiguo of the meeting place. I should use these next few days to test myself against a few experts. Beating up these little thugs brings in no Source Power at all.
This was a small inn. Gu Shaoshang sat cross-legged on the bed.
To Gu Shaoshang's surprise, those thugs really were Qin Maojiao's men!
But their target was not the little bit of money they stole through robbery!
This gang of thugs specifically targeted migrant workers who had come to the city for work! They would first rob them of all their money, then force them into usury debts!
In the end, they forced them to sell their own organs!
Thinking of this, killing intent suddenly surged in Gu Shaoshang's heart!
Scum like that all deserved to die!
The people along the coast were fierce, fond of fighting and gambling. Many bosses seeking thrills and excitement hired fighters and bet money on boxing matches everywhere!
In such an environment, great fighters emerged in endless numbers. The most famous among them was Southeast Asia's Number One Expert, Chen Aiyang!
There had once been a rumor in the southeastern Martial World that Chen Aiyang's Tai Chi had brought his Hidden Force to the point where he could control its release at will, where "fists could grow from every part of his body."
In other words, Chen Aiyang had trained Hidden Force through his entire body. Such a realm was only one step away from the state where "not a feather could be added, nor could a fly land"!
Next came the Three Tigers of Guangdong: Zhang Wei, Xu Zhen, and Dai Jun.
All of them were Great Masters of Hidden Force! Masters of martial arts! No one knew how many lives they had taken. They were absolutely combat-hardened experts.
They were far stronger than those Hidden Force masters who silently practiced boxing deep in the mountains!
"Xu Zhen!"
Gu Shaoshang closed his eyes and quietly nurtured his spirit.
The south saw much rain. A torrential downpour fell, and the streets were nearly deserted.
Wearing a black baseball cap, Gu Shaoshang walked through the rain.
His steps were light, and his clothes were soaked through. Yet if one could see beneath them, one would find that every pore on his body was sealed shut, his muscles constantly trembling. The rain could not carry away the slightest bit of his body heat.
Gu Shaoshang had been in this city for three days. During those three days, he had constantly moved along the edge of the underworld, investigating the criminals who had kidnapped Zhao Liang while searching for a target to strike.
"Letian Group!"
In the distance, a massive building came into view.
Xu Zhen was a major director of the Letian Group and always came for meetings on the first of every month.
Although he desperately needed Source Power, Gu Shaoshang was not a bloodthirsty man. Naturally, he had investigated everything in advance.
Xu Zhen was not only ruthless and vicious, with hands stained in blood from his early rise to power—even after going legitimate—
he was still secretly colluding with the Japanese to sell drugs and even trafficking human organs!
Besides gathering information these past few days, Gu Shaoshang had followed the thugs' testimony to locate one of Xu Zhen's sites for harvesting human organs!
But even if he slaughtered every last piece of scum there, it would not ease the hatred in Gu Shaoshang's heart!
"He's here!"
Like a statue, Gu Shaoshang had waited in the rain for two hours. Suddenly, his brows rose and his eyes narrowed.
At the entrance, a middle-aged man in a black Zhongshan suit and gold-rimmed glasses emerged, surrounded by a crowd.
"Xu Zhen!" Gu Shaoshang's heart stirred. He lowered the brim of his cap and strode forward.
The middle-aged man walked with heavy steps and bent knees, his back slightly arched and his arms hanging naturally at his sides. The veins in his neck rose and fell with every step, making him seem like an ape in motion! He was an expert who had trained Tongbei Fist into his bones!
With just one glance, Gu Shaoshang was certain that he was Xu Zhen!
"All right! Go back to work! No need to see me off!" Xu Zhen waved his hand, sending his subordinates back inside.
Holding an umbrella, he walked toward a black Bentley, with two young men following behind him.
"Master! Zhang Wei retired years ago and went into business. I heard that his investments have recently gone poorly and he's gone bankrupt! Should we lend him a hand?"
The young man who spoke was over six feet tall, dressed in loose sportswear, with an unmistakable arrogance on his face.
Xu Zhen did not stop walking. "Jiao, Zhang Wei and I are known together as the Three Tigers of Guangdong. There's no chance he would work for me. Let him be!"
"Doing business isn't like fighting matches! That stubborn fool Zhang Wei refused even when Master invited him into the arms trade! He deserves to go bankrupt!" The other young man, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, curled his lips in disdain.
"Are those words something you can say carelessly? If others hear them, I'll skin you alive!"
Xu Zhen first reprimanded his loose-tongued disciple, then continued.
"One of our sites has been wiped out! Our top priority is to find those people first! Then... hm?"
Suddenly, his entire body shook, and his hair stood on end as though electrified!
