Watching the double-standard couple put on their act, Chen Feng let out a cold laugh before speaking. "You two are being far too unreasonable, aren't you?"
Chen Feng had originally had no intention of paying Tang San and the others any attention.
But he had not expected Tang San's group to come looking for trouble themselves. Since such a perfect chance to show off had been delivered right to his door, how could he swallow his anger?
"What do you mean, we're unreasonable? You're the unreasonable one! This was clearly your fault, yet you want us to compensate you. What kind of logic is that?"
Xiao Wu said furiously, then turned toward the surrounding onlookers and shouted, "Everyone, judge for yourselves! He bumped into me, and not only did he refuse to apologize, he even accused me of being unreasonable! Tell me, what should be done about this?"
"Of course he should apologize!"
"No matter the reason, since he bumped into that young lady, shouldn't he apologize?"
"Mm... I think this girl is quite pitiful. She's so pretty, yet this young man is far too heartless!"
The murmurs around them made a smile appear on Xiao Wu's lips.
Although this farce had not gone as smoothly as they had planned, they had achieved their goal. Someone was now standing up for them and seeking justice on their behalf.
That was a good sign!
Faced with this situation, Kamisato quickly stepped forward and began explaining, "Everyone, please listen to me. This young lady was the one who bumped into the Traveler first. It was not as everyone imagines!"
"Even so, does that mean he did nothing wrong?" a passerby immediately asked, looking at Chen Feng.
"Exactly! That little girl is so cute. Could she possibly be lying?"
"No matter how you look at it, it was that man's fault!"
The surrounding people continued discussing heatedly, while Chen Feng alone stood where he was, his gaze icy.
Tang San also looked at Chen Feng. Standing on the moral high ground, he said, "I can see you're not having an easy time either. How about this? As long as you apologize to Xiao Wu, we'll let this matter go."
Chen Feng remained where he was, utterly unmoved.
Xiao Wu snorted coldly. "That's right, brat. As long as you apologize to me, Sister Xiao Wu will forgive you."
Chen Feng smiled faintly, then looked at Xiao Wu. "You want me to apologize to you?"
Xiao Wu nodded. "That's right. As long as you apologize, I'll generously forgive you!"
Just then.
Slap—
A crisp sound rang out through the air, and the next instant, everyone saw Xiao Wu fly backward.
Her entire body slammed hard into the ground.
A bright red palm print appeared on her face.
At that moment, everyone wore expressions of utter shock.
They had not expected Chen Feng to strike so directly.
"Y-You actually dared to hit me?" Xiao Wu covered her cheek and said hatefully.
Chen Feng slowly withdrew his hand. His eyes narrowed as he coldly swept his gaze across everyone present, then looked at Xiao Wu. "Why wouldn't I dare?"
Xiao Wu immediately covered the side of her face that had been struck and pointed at Chen Feng. "Did you all see that? This brat actually hit someone in broad daylight!"
With Xiao Wu saying this, the people on the street immediately began echoing her words. After all, they were merely spectators.
"This person is going too far, isn't he? He actually dared to hit someone?"
"Exactly! This is really too much! Little girl, don't be afraid. We'll help you!"
"That's right, brothers, beat the crap out of him!"
Chen Feng smiled lightly, then took out a token. Six emblems were engraved upon it.
At the center of those six emblems, a sword symbol stood out prominently.
Someone recognized the token and cried out in shock, "Th-That's Sword Douluo's exclusive token!"
"Sword Douluo's exclusive token? Who is this kid?"
"Could he be related to Sword Douluo?"
After seeing Chen Feng's token, all the surrounding passersby took a step back. No one dared provoke someone like that. If they angered him, they would be in serious trouble.
Thus, no one dared step forward to uphold their so-called "justice" any longer. One by one, they retreated.
Tang San's expression also darkened considerably when he saw this.
He had not expected Chen Feng to possess Sword Douluo's exclusive token.
Tang San stepped forward and shielded Xiao Wu behind him. Looking at Chen Feng, he said, "Just because you have someone backing you, does that mean you can bully others and do whatever you please?"
Chen Feng looked calmly at Tang San. Since Tang San and Xiao Wu refused to be reasonable, there was no need for him to be reasonable either.
"That's right. With someone backing you, you really can do whatever you please.
This token is Sword Douluo's exclusive token. You can go ask what exactly this token represents.
Furthermore, everyone has seen the entire token, so you naturally know my identity. Do you think I would need to extort a little girl?"
Chen Feng's gaze was calm, as though he had not taken Xiao Wu's earlier provocation seriously at all.
Hearing this, the surrounding passersby immediately fell silent.
Indeed, they knew better than anyone what this token represented.
With such an identity, Chen Feng certainly would not extort a little girl. Looking at it now, that little girl was naturally the more unreasonable one.
"Indeed, indeed! So you're Sword Douluo's descendant. We truly failed to recognize greatness!"
"That's right! With an identity like yours, how could you possibly extort a little girl?"
"Exactly! That little girl must have framed the young master!"
At that moment, the surrounding crowd all switched sides and began speaking up for Chen Feng.
Chen Feng understood it all. This world was simply like that: the strong preyed on the weak.
The strong survived, while the weak were eliminated.
Only the words of the strong counted as reason in this world.
Xiao Wu immediately flew into a rage. "You dog who bullies others with your backing! Today, I'll beat you until even your mother won't recognize you!"
With an angry shout, Xiao Wu moved to attack.
Tang San grabbed Xiao Wu by the shoulder. "Let me do it."
Xiao Wu said unhappily, "Why? I'll do it myself. I'll beat him until even his mother won't recognize him."
Tang San frowned. "You're a girl. Watch your language. Have you forgotten what I told you before? I'll protect you forever. This is a matter between men."
He did not let Xiao Wu attack for two reasons. First, he could sense that the other party was not weak and feared Xiao Wu would be hurt. Second, if he allowed Xiao Wu to act at a time like this, where would his pride as a man go?
Tang San stepped forward and looked at Chen Feng. "Since you dare to bully others with your backing, do you dare accept my challenge?"
Chen Feng looked calmly at Tang San. "Originally, I could not be bothered to associate with people like you, but you have been so unreasonable and falsely accused me. Since you wish to challenge me, I shall mercifully grant your wish!"
