Zhou Zilong Kills Sada

Yuena hurried through the maze of winding alleys with Bulma on her back.

"The boss will be at the office soon. We'll be safe in a little while!" Yuena's voice held a note of resolve.

Hearing her, Bulma said with heartfelt gratitude and trust, "Thank you for all your hard work."

But fate seemed to love playing tricks. Just as they were about to reach the relative safety of the office, Sada appeared up ahead like a ghost.

"Boss, hurry on ahead! I'll buy you some time!" Without hesitation, Yuena set Bulma down and turned to face Sada. Her eyes shone with determination, as if she had already put life and death out of her mind. But reality was cruel: Sada casually kicked her, sending her flying like a broken kite straight into Bulma, who had been trying to escape.

They both fell to the ground. A flash of pain crossed Bulma's eyes, but it was outweighed by her defiance.

Sada approached slowly, a playful smile curling his lips. "You two should come with me. Since you both look pretty good, I might consider keeping you as my playthings." His tone brimmed with menace and smugness.

Bulma struggled to her feet. Though her body still trembled, her voice was remarkably firm. "You lizard-looking freak, don't get cocky! This is my fiancé Zilong's territory. If you dare cause trouble, you won't get away with it!" Her words reflected not only her faith in Zhou Zilong, but also her refusal to surrender to her fate.

Sada wasn't angry at being mocked. A disdainful smile curled his lips, and his eyes brimmed with contempt for the people before him. "Is that so? So this guy called Zilong is your support, huh? Don't worry. I'll wait for him to come out, then I'll beat him right in front of you and show you how weak this so-called support of yours really is!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the air around them seemed to freeze. A clear, resolute voice rang out: "I may not be very strong right now, but I'm more than strong enough to beat a lizard like you!"

As the words fell, a figure streaked through the air like lightning and landed steadily in the middle of the scene. It was Zhou Zilong.

"Boss, I'm sorry. We weren't strong enough!" Yuena got up, walked over to Zhou Zilong, and bowed deeply. Her face was filled with guilt and frustration.

"It's all right. This isn't your fault. Those guys were beyond your strength." Zhou Zilong's voice was gentle yet firm. He patted Yuena on the shoulder, offering comfort and encouragement.

"Boss, once this is over, please help us get stronger!" Yuena looked up, her eyes shining with longing and determination.

"Don't worry. I was going to help you grow stronger even if you hadn't asked. This incident has also served as a warning to me. Once I've dealt with these Lizard People and come out of seclusion, I'll step up your training. Just be ready." Zhou Zilong smiled faintly, his gaze profound.

Zhou Zilong's face was expressionless and his steps steady, each one seeming to fall in time with the beat of a clock as he walked straight toward Sada.

"Beep, beep, beep, beep!" As Zhou Zilong drew closer, Sada quickly activated the Scouter in his hand. A string of cold digits—"3000"—glared from the screen, as if mercilessly mocking Zhou Zilong's strength.

"I thought you'd be more impressive. You've only got a power level of 3,000, and you dare claim you can beat me? What a big mouth!" Sada's voice rang with undisguised mockery, as if he could already see victory within reach. He folded his arms and leaned back slightly, looking utterly confident.

Yet Zhou Zilong's gaze remained unchanged, deep and cold, as if nothing around him could disturb his calm. He didn't respond to Sada's taunts, simply continuing to approach at the same steady pace, each step firm and resolute.

"You look like you can't wait to attack. Go ahead. I won't even fight back—I'll let you hit me three times, then I'll return the favor!" Sada's tone turned playful. He seemed to enjoy toying with his opponent.

Zhou Zilong stopped and finally spoke, his voice cold but exceptionally clear. "You? I only need one punch."

"Hahahaha! Is that so? Let's see how you're going to knock me down with one punch!" Sada's laughter rang out. He clearly didn't believe Zhou Zilong, thinking it was nothing more than a desperate boast from a man about to die.

"In the blink of an eye, Zhou Zilong appeared before Sada and threw a punch at Sada's chest. The two were about the same height." The punch made no boom and stirred no wind, yet it was like deep, still water, concealing something beneath the surface.

"There's no way the boss's punch was that ordinary!" Yuena tried to detect anything unusual in it, but it seemed futile. Her brow furrowed, her heart full of confusion.

Bulma added softly, "No matter what, I believe in Zilong."

Sada sneered, thinking Zhou Zilong was just bluffing. "Done with that pathetic punch? My turn!"

"That depends on whether you can attack at all!" Zhou Zilong replied with a calm smile, stepping back and leaving Sada with what looked like an unguarded back.

Consumed by rage, Sada unleashed a full-powered attack—but his face changed in an instant. His body seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force, and he crumpled to the ground in pain.

"How is this possible? You only have a power level of 3,000, yet you managed to hurt me this badly!" Sada's voice was full of disbelief.

Zhou Zilong slowly stepped forward and raised his right hand, holding it before Sada's eyes. His gaze was cold and profound. "It's because you rely too much on the Scouter you're wearing. You never realized that my power level can change in an instant."

A purple beam gathered between Zhou Zilong's fingers, like a crack in the gates of the underworld, radiating a suffocating aura of death. If a certain purple cat had been there, he would have realized that Zhou Zilong had already gained a trace of Hakai Energy. If an angel had been present, he would also have noticed that this attack contained the power of time.

"Please, let me go!" Sada's voice trembled, his eyes full of longing to live—and even greater fear of the death about to descend.

"From the moment you said you'd make Bulma your plaything, your death was sealed!" Zhou Zilong's voice was cold and firm, without the slightest hesitation.

As Zhou Zilong finished speaking, he swung his arm. The purple beam instantly cut through the air like lightning and struck Sada in the forehead.

At that moment, time seemed to freeze.

Then Sada's scream rang across the sky. His body began to undergo a shocking transformation: his skin gradually lost its luster, his muscles shriveled, and his body crumbled into specks of dust, vanishing into thin air.
