Chapter 54: Calming Down IV

"It's fine." Li Runshan still wore a smile. "These people were potential dangers. Even if you hadn't dealt with them, I would've driven them away."

His gaze swept over the three people on the ground before quickly returning to the set Yu Hong was wearing.

"Good." Yu Hong exhaled. He turned and trudged back toward his dwelling, carrying his things one step at a time.

At a time like this, it wasn't convenient for him to keep chatting with Li Runshan. The other man had clearly grown wary of him.

His back moved neither quickly nor slowly, gradually disappearing into the depths of the woods.

Only after Yu Hong had vanished completely did the smile on Li Runshan's face slowly fade.

"That equipment... Its defensive strength is extremely high!" he muttered.

"Dad, Uncle Yu Hong was so scary just now." Aisena spoke softly from behind him.

"It's all right. Dad will protect you." Li Runshan smiled again. "His equipment may be impressive, but Dad is stronger."

He reached out and ruffled his daughter's little head. Though he said that, when he recalled Yu Hong's two Low Sweep Kicks from earlier, he felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

That sweep... wasn't it the basic leg technique he'd sold to the other man?

Although the movements were somewhat unfamiliar, the way he exerted force really did look similar.

But how had that man's sweep been so fast? Recalling those few kicks just now, a trace of gravity flashed through Li Runshan's eyes.

He had personally witnessed the defensive power of that black set. It was comprehensive and formidable, far surpassing the Gray Lizard Set. Combined with Yu Hong's abnormal burst of speed, he feared that only joint locks could restrain the man.
