Chapter 27: Chapter 27 Taking Action

Translator: 549690339

Lin Zhen said, taking out the Black Dragon Spear from behind him.

Although the Black Dragon Spear was a long spear, its shaft was made of two sections. Lin Zhen pulled it in the middle, and the original length of 1.2 meters suddenly became 2.2 meters.

“I’ll just cripple one leg for each of them, as revenge for my father!”

Seeing that Lin Zhen was about to take action, Zhang Huai could no longer stand it and shouted, “Lin Zhen, you dare!”

After all, they were his brothers. If he watched them have their leg crippled by Lin Zhen, he would probably have no one willing to follow him in the future.

“What wouldn’t I dare?” Lin Zhen prepared to take action.

“Alright! Lin Zhen, listen to me, I’ll give you two options now. One is to let them go, and I’ll compensate you a little. The other option is to continue with the fight, but you’ll offend me, Zhang Huai, forever. You’ve heard my nickname, the Butcher, and it’s not just because I kill a lot of monsters. Compared to killing monsters, I prefer dealing with foolish people in the wild. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.”

Listening to Zhang Huai’s threat, Lin Zhen asked, “What kind of compensation can you offer?”

“I’ll give your father 500,000. I know his injury isn’t that serious, and the treatment only cost him over 10,000 yuan. Giving him 500,000 means you’ve made a big profit.”

Zhao Liang couldn’t stand it anymore and angrily said, “Zhang Huai, you’re treating us like beggars! The whole Demon Hunter squad took action for a mere 500,000? That’s not even enough for a meal. If you really want to compensate, show some sincerity. Don’t say this matter has nothing to do with you. Nobody here is a fool.”

“So, how much do you want?” Zhang Huai asked.

Everyone looked at Lin Zhen, since he had to decide on the final price.

Lin Zhen rubbed the spear shaft and said, “In my heart, these people deserve to die, and their deaths would not make amends for their sins. However, since everyone is here today, I will give you face. Bring out 20 million yuan, and you can take these people away. Otherwise, they each must leave a leg behind.”

“Pah! Dream on!”

Zhang Huai spat fiercely, “Do you think my money comes from the wind? You’re asking for 20 million yuan so easily! Let me tell you, I can only offer 1 million yuan at most. Not even a single cent more. Either you let them go, or you offend me. Lin Zhen, it’s up to you.”

As he spoke, Zhang Huai raised his hand from behind and drew out a 1.3-meter-long machete with faint traces of blood on it.

Zhang Huai was skilled with a knife, and his style was fierce and bold. He was brave enough to charge forward during battles and had earned the nickname ‘Butcher.’ Most martial artists did not want to offend him. He did not believe that Lin Zhen, a mere trainee who had just joined the world of martial arts for a short time, would have the courage to do so.

Most likely, Lin Zhen was just bluffing. If he took out the money, it would mean losing to Lin Zhen, and Zhang Huai could not afford to lose face.

Lin Zhen glanced at the members of the Demon Hunter squad, and everyone nodded at him. Shi Lei even said, “Lin Zhen, you are one of our squad members. Your business is our business. You make the decisions.”

“Then, Lin Zhen thanks you all for your support.”

Moreover, he was not entirely confident about dealing with Lin Zhen now.

Seeing Zhang Huai make a move, Zhao Liang and the others were also about to take action. Although it was not wise to have an all-out battle with the Blood Hand Squad here, they couldn’t sit idly by and let Lin Zhen be at a disadvantage. After all, Zhang Huai was a War General, while Lin Zhen was still only at the early stage of a Level Eight Fighter.

As Shi Lei and Zhao Liang drew their swords, the opposing Blood Hand Squad members also took out their weapons.

Both sides’ snipers set up their rifles, while the others were ready for battle. As soon as the fighting started, some would inevitably fall within a short period.

But Lin Zhen shouted, “Brother Zhao, you guys shouldn’t move! I want to have a one-on-one duel with Zhang Huai.”

If both sides were to engage in a full-scale battle today, Lin Zhen believed that the Demon Hunters wouldn’t have the upper hand, as the opponent still had a Four-level War General. The outcome would certainly not be pleasant.

Hearing Lin Zhen’s words, even the about-to-strike Zhang Huai paused for a moment, then burst into laughter, “This is ridiculously funny. A mere Seventh-level Warrior dares to challenge a War General like me in a one-on-one duel. Come on, Lin Zhen, let me teach you a lesson today. Everyone, stay out of this.”

Zhao Liang was worried, “Lin Zhen, don’t overestimate yourself.”

“Brother Zhao, can you trust me just this once?” Lin Zhen looked at the Demon Hunter members.

The team members exchanged glances and nodded their heads. A one-on-one duel was a matter of a martial artist’s honor. If they forcibly stopped it, the martial artist would have a hard time holding his head up in the future.

Meanwhile, the members from Blood Hand also halted their advances, apparently believing in Zhang Huai’s inevitable victory.

Lin Zhen, holding the Black Dragon Spear, stood in front of Zhang Huai, “I deal with things swiftly. Since you’re a War General, I want to make a small request. Do you dare to accept it?”

Zhang Huai didn’t immediately agree, but cautiously asked, “What request?”

“One minute! Our battle will only last for one minute. Within one minute, if I lose, I’ll unconditionally give you 20 million and cripple one of my arms as compensation for Ouyang Yu. If you lose, you’ll give me 20 million. Do you dare?”

Zhang Huai’s eyes turned, “What if there’s no winner after one minute?”

“Then we’ll fight for another minute.”

“Okay!”

Zhang Huai laughed, “Lin Zhen, you’re truly foolish, challenging me to a bet. Within one minute, I can tear you apart. Everyone heard that clearly, right? This is Lin Zhen’s own request, so none of the Demon Hunters should interfere!”

“None of the Blood Hand members should interfere either. One minute, fair and square!” Lin Zhen was firm and resolute.

“Alright! So it’s settled. Lei Ming, record this, and start live streaming it on the web. I want all Ice City warriors to see the consequences of crossing me, Butcher Zhang Huai!”

Zhang Huai was extremely pleased with himself, considering Lin Zhen, a Seventh-level Warrior, to be no match for him. He believed that one minute would be more than enough to deal with Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen also asked Zhao Liang and the others, “Brother Zhao, let’s do a live stream as well. Let everyone see that none of us Demon Hunters are cowards!”
