Li Juncheng had practically crushed all of Lin Ruoxi's hopes in the cradle.
Lin Ruoxi had indeed lost hope and was sinking deeper into despair, but she would never submit!
"Li Juncheng, you'll die a horrible death! Let go of me! Let go!"
At that moment, Li Juncheng had revealed his true face. It was utterly hideous.
He was nothing but a beast in human clothing. The eager look on his face made Lin Ruoxi feel utterly sick.
Lin Ruoxi was just a girl, restrained by two or three burly men. She had no strength to resist at all.
"Help... help me! Can someone save me?!"
"Go on, scream. The louder you scream, the more excited I get!"
Li Juncheng impatiently tore open Lin Ruoxi's clothes, exposing her fair, flawless shoulders. It was enough to make one's blood race!
Her delicate V-shaped collarbones left Li Juncheng dazed for a moment. She really was top-tier!
Lin Ruoxi was forcibly made to drink another huge glass of alcohol. Her consciousness began to blur, and tears welled in the corners of her eyes.
For some reason, Lin Ruoxi suddenly thought of the white-haired girl who had saved her in the alley before.
Lin Ruoxi remembered that her name was Ling Mengxue. When she had needed help the most, she had appeared like an angel sent from heaven, pulling her back from hell into the human world.
The Tang saber in her hand, the one that had severed the darkness, seemed to have appeared out of thin air. She had said that she was... an Astral Mark Girl!
Bang!
Just as Li Juncheng thought everything would proceed exactly as he wanted, the private room's door was suddenly kicked open?!
Outside stood a boy around sixteen or seventeen years old, holding a tray in one hand and wearing an employee uniform. He was especially conspicuous!
For a moment, everyone in the room—seven or eight people, including Li Juncheng and Lin Ruoxi—blankly stared outside.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
With so many pairs of eyes staring at him, Ling Feng felt a little uncomfortable.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw the girl whose limbs were being pinned down by several burly men.
"What is this?"
He had thought it was none of his business, but after recognizing the girl, a surge of anger immediately rose in Ling Feng's heart.
Ling Feng pointed at her. His gaze was calm, but his words were filled with resolve!
"Let that girl go..."
Showing His Skills!
After a few seconds, Li Juncheng finally came to his senses.
Fuck your mother! Even a waiter dared to come looking for trouble? This was simply outrageous!
"Kid, since you like meddling in other people's business, I'll show you that this society isn't one where just anyone can offend people."
Li Juncheng laughed in anger.
What kind of status did he have in Linzhuo?
If word got out that any random nobody dared to act wild in front of him, he would have no reason to keep hanging around.
Ling Feng stood there with a calm expression. He looked as though he had no idea what would happen next, but in truth, he already had everything planned out.
He had delivered alcohol to the wrong room earlier. When he passed by this place and heard cries for help inside, he had come in without thinking too much.
It had been completely casual.
Seeing Ling Feng like this, Lin Ruoxi was utterly confused.
She had thought someone had come to save her, but it turned out to be a clueless hothead. Not only could he not save her, he had gotten himself dragged into it too?
No matter what, Lin Ruoxi would not let an innocent person face danger because of her.
"Big brother, run! Go call the police! They're not good people!"
Lin Ruoxi shouted, but in the next second, one of the burly men beside her covered her mouth.
Bang!
Another dull thud sounded. Great—someone else had locked the door too.
"Beat him to death!"
At Li Juncheng's command, five burly men surrounded Ling Feng, ready to give him a savage beating and teach him what the underworld was.
"Brat, you brought this on yourself. You dared ruin Young Master Li's fun? You really have some nerve."
"Relax. At most, we'll leave you bedridden for a few years. You won't die."
"Didn't Young Master Li say to beat him to death?"
"You actually believe that? Why don't you try it?"
"Uh, forget it. I don't want to go to prison."
Seeing those vicious-looking thugs, Lin Ruoxi could barely bear to keep watching.
If it were not for her, how could she have dragged someone else into this?
The more she thought about it, the more guilty Lin Ruoxi felt.
That boy clearly looked like nothing more than a student, yet he was about to have his future ruined because of her mistake.
Absolutely not!
Lin Ruoxi steeled herself. Taking advantage of the man beside her being distracted, she bit down hard.
The burly man holding her cried out in pain and could not help loosening his grip.
Taking that chance, Lin Ruoxi rushed toward Ling Feng. Numbed by the alcohol, she barely had any strength left.
She had been weak in that alley last time. This time, she would fight to the bitter end!
"Big brother, let's go!"
"We can't get away."
Ling Feng calmly watched the group close in and moved Lin Ruoxi behind him.
Ling Feng's action had been an instinctive reaction.
But Lin Ruoxi froze for a moment and suddenly felt touched. They had never met before, yet he still wanted to protect her.
On the surface, Ling Feng still looked calm, but inside, he was already panicking like crazy!
Should I transform?
Ling Feng was not sure whether he could beat these people without transforming. His strength was not that great to begin with.
But how would he know if he did not try?!
Drawing on the combat instincts of an Astral Mark Girl, Ling Feng used an Army-Sweeping Strike, kicking two burly men back several staggering steps and nearly knocking them to the ground.
His legs felt a little numb. It was a bit of a strain, but he should be able to fight. Ling Feng even recalled the fights he had gotten into in middle school.
Ling Feng thought so, but the two burly men were secretly shocked. They had not expected him to have such explosive power.
Bang!
Without saying a word, Ling Feng leaped into the air and followed up with a whip kick, sending the two burly men who had not yet reacted flying. They slammed viciously into the wall behind them.
It all happened in one smooth motion.
Ling Feng's combo left both Li Juncheng and Lin Ruoxi stunned.
"Fuck you! You're asking for it!"
"Brothers! Grab your weapons!"
Several people were beaten back step by step by Ling Feng.
Ling Feng barely stopped moving. He grabbed a wooden chair beside the sofa, swung it, and smashed it directly onto a burly man's head.
If that thug had not raised his arm to block it in advance, his head would probably have split open.
Crack!
With that swing from Ling Feng, the chair actually broke in half, snapping the thug's arm in the process!
The thug clutched his arm and began howling on the floor in pain. Even his hand had become deformed.
Lin Ruoxi had never seen a scene like this. Though she was frightened, she felt incredibly safe.
Because that boy was fighting for her!
Seeing how capable Ling Feng was, Li Juncheng panicked for a moment and flew into a helpless rage.
"Trash! A bunch of trash! How can't you even handle one kid?! What the hell did I hire you for?!"
Li Juncheng had never dreamed that the bodyguards and thugs he had hired could not even beat a student?
What the fuck.
Fuck you all!!
Temporary Plan
After an intense fight, the scene was a complete mess. There were shattered wine bottles, baseball bats, and even bricks from who knew where.
In just a few minutes, those thugs, along with several bodyguards at Li Juncheng's side, had all collapsed to the floor one after another, groaning in pain.
The short burst of exertion had nearly drained Ling Feng of strength. His entire body ached, and if there were another round, he definitely would not be able to win.
Lin Ruoxi stood behind Ling Feng, staring in disbelief at the panting boy. He was the one who had saved her.
If it had not been for him, what would she have faced? Just thinking about it made Lin Ruoxi shudder in fear.
At the same time, Li Juncheng stared at Ling Feng in shock. Ever since Ling Feng had displayed his skills, he had been dumbfounded.
He had thought Ling Feng might have trained before, but how could someone with such a small build be this outrageous?! One against seven or eight?
Indeed, Ling Feng felt as though his bones were about to fall apart. There had even been moments when he wondered whether throwing another punch would cripple his hand.
This body still could not handle such high-intensity combat.
"Y-You, don't come any closer!"
"Do you know who my father is?! My father is the chairman of the Shengtian Grand Hotel! Let me go, or my father won't let you off once he finds out!"
"..."
Ling Feng rolled his eyes at Li Juncheng. He had no strength left to speak, and he even staggered, nearly failing to stay upright.
Seeing this, Lin Ruoxi hurried over and supported Ling Feng.
Seeing the sweat covering his forehead, she could not help feeling sorry for him. Several messy strands of hair clung to his forehead, but in Lin Ruoxi's eyes, they made him look especially handsome.
This boy looked only sixteen or seventeen, still a student, yet he was so incredible.
"What should we do next?" Lin Ruoxi ignored Li Juncheng entirely and asked Ling Feng.
Ling Feng felt a little dizzy.
It looked like they needed to leave. He also did not know how to explain this to Qiu Yun'er.
Forget it. He could just send her a message.
What happened here could not be exposed. Fortunately, the room was well soundproofed. Even after making such a huge commotion, no one had come barging in, or it would have been impossible to explain.
"Y-You, don't come over! I'm telling you! You're finished! You're really finished!" Li Juncheng continued roaring.
Ling Feng was a little speechless. Could this guy not be quieter? And he was even trying to make a phone call? Did he think Ling Feng did not exist?
Ling Feng stepped up and chopped the idiot Li Juncheng on the neck, knocking him out cold. When the thugs lying on the floor saw this, they were completely dumbfounded.
Their expressions seemed to say: Do you know who he is? You just did that?!
That's right! It was that direct!
Afterward, Ling Feng knocked out everyone in the room except Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi had no objections at all. After experiencing so much today, it felt like a roller coaster ride through life. Fortunately, the ending was still fairly perfect.
