Xu Long's eyes scanned the men opposite of them. He was fully awake and sober now. It was as if he was never out drinking. As the assistant of Lu Tian, he was trained to never back down from a fight, even if the other person has a gun.
He slowly gets into a fighting stance, making the aura around him change. He was no longer the pretty boy at the night club, but a tiger. Even the aura he gave felt like an actual tiger had emerge from within him and appeared into the sky above.
Lin Hui nod his head at Xu Long with an impressed expression. He turns away from the man and looks at the other men. His posture slowly change and gets into a fighting stance with fists ready to fight.
"Hahahah—"
The group of men roar in laughter when they saw Lin Hui and Xu Long's fighting stances. Compare to them, both men were skinnier and looked like kids. Two skinny men thinks they can take them down? When had they ever lost a fight?
Seconds after the men's laughter echoed into the sky, thunder roars and lightning flashes in the background. The sound of heavy footsteps quickly storm from behind Lin Hui and Xu Long.
The area they were in was already small. However, with the other men now in the alley too, they trapped the two men with no space to run.
Lin Hui stares at the back and he was at a loss for words. He scratch his head in annoyance and curse the heavens. They were already outnumbered and yet, the darn sky wanted to take sides!
However, one end of his lip curls up into a charming smirk, "Xu Long, should we test out who takes down the most men?"
Hearing Lin Hui's words, Man 1 scoffs in laughter. He points the piece of wood at the boy and roar.
"Kill them!"
At the man's voice, the massive group of men charges at Lin Hui and Xu Long. Each person ready to beat the living hell out of them.
Lin Hui sighs and turn to the other side to await the men. However, unlike him, Xu Long rushes forward to the men in front.
Two men approach him with fists thrown in direction. He bends his body forward and avoids the hit. His arms swiftly wraps around their neck, slamming both heads together.
"I'll handle the front. You take the back. Don't forget to count!"
Lin Hui nods his head with a 'en' and runs three sprints to meet them. He sends a jumping punch to a man, knocking him out right away. Without pausing, he tackles a man around the waist and slams the man onto another man with a metal stick.
*Clank*
The sound of metal bounce onto the floor. No intentions of stopping, Lin Hui quickly catches the metal stick when it bounce up. He swings the stick like a baseball bat and hits the side of a man's head as he jump kicks another's stomach.
At the same time, a man punches his cheek, but he did not wince at the pain. He arms and legs continue to strike back in full force.
On Xu Long's side, he crouch every so second to dodge the hits. Doing so, he sends punches at the men he passes. Taking down the tenth man, he sends a fist to the eleventh man, but before he could hit the man, another man kicks the side of his waist.
He groans at the sudden pain and slams against the wall.
A man aims the baseball bat at his head, but Xu Long raise his arm to block it. The pain shot through his body, but he ignores it. He sends the man a punch in the stomach and swiftly snatch the baseball bat.
The quiet night began to ease as the heavens above stopped weeping. However, the sound of a fight continues without stopping. Bodies lay unconsciously on the wet ground.
"Haa—!"
Lin Hui exhales from exhaustion. He stabs the metal stick on the ground to steady his posture. His entire body drenched from the rain and his own sweat. Small bruises appeared in his once flawless face along with open scars that bled.
He stares at the men who were no different from him. They had also stopped attacking to rest, but one can see that they aren't planning to stop until he and Xu Long are dead.
Thinking of how he ended up this way, he chuckles and groan at the same time.
"Xu Long, I swear, I'm never going to a nightclub with you ever again."
"What are you saying? I promise next time won't be like this."
Xu Long chuckles a response. His back inches away from Lin Hui as he stares cautiously at the opposite side. The baseball bat in his hand aiming out to the men.
His appearance was no different from Lin Hui, let alone the men they're fighting. He curse inside at the men of Wolf Team. It was because of their bragging that Spring was such a great nightclub. If it was so great, how in the world did he end up in this kind of situation?
*Vrr Vrr*
Amongst the heavy panting, the sound of a phone vibrating sounds. Man 1 lifts lift his hand holding the piece of wood and rest it on his shoulder. His other hand reach inside his pocket and takes the phone out.
"Yes, boss."
["Is it done?"]
Man 1 glance at Lin Hui and Xu Long, then his brothers who have the two boys trapped like a cage. He sneers maliciously and answers his boss.
"Almost."
["Almost? Hurry up and finish them. I want no survivors!"]
"Got it."
Man 1 ends the call and puts his phone away. He points the wood in the direction of the two boys.
"Finish them!"
Hearing his words, the others were hesitant. Each person were tired and couldn't help but have second thoughts. Anyone who sees this can see that they outnumbered the two boys, yet, looking at their brothers on the ground, they can only shiver. No one knows if they are still breathing or dead.
Even Lin Hui and Xu Long were still standing after such fight broke out.
However, if they don't do as Man 1 says, their days in Imperial are over. Even looking for another job would be of no use.
Thinking this, two men, each from opposite sides decided to charge at the two boys.
Lin Hui and Xu Long shook their heads in pity for the men. Taking one step forward, their arms stretch forward, and each person's fist collide on the men's face.
*thud*
"What the fuck?! Arrrggghhhh—""
Just when the two men knocked out onto the ground, Man 1 who stood afar shriek in pain.
The shrieking pain he made caused all the men to turn in his direction with confused expressions. It was two other men who were hit, so why did Man 1 scream?
However, when they saw him, they were all dumbfounded.
Man 1 who had not once engage in the fight was standing on all fours like a dog. His palms scraped on the ground and knees on the verge of breaking. The piece of wood in his hand was no longer in his hand. His face drained of colors as he groan.
Even worse, that piece of wood was now pointed at his neck. Pressing the man down on the back was a foot wearing house slippers.
Their eyes slowly follow the foot as they look up. When their eyes met the unknown person, they were even more dumbfounded.
This unknow man doesn't look like someone who would engage in a fight.
The black and white plaid pajama he wore made him look like someone who was just about to go to bed! Not only that, he is also wearing a green robe to keep him warm.
The man looked relaxed and nonchalant. He had one hand on his hip as one leg bent and foot on Man 1's back. The piece of wood in his hand now, looks like it had turned into a long sword ready to cut at any moment.
However, when they met his eyes, a chilling chill shot through their spine making them shiver like a winter blizzard.
Seeing the men's attention turn to one direction, Lin Hui and Xu Long also turned to look. Through the gaps of the many heads, both their eyes lit up with firework.
Xu Long raised his hands and waves to get the pajama man's attention as Lin Hui jumps like he was on a trampoline. Both their voice excitedly calls out.
Lin Hui: "Liu Shan!!"
Xu Long: "Save us!!"
