Fu Hongxue, who was at the forefront and was the point of this Demon Badge, turned pale with fear. His eyes were filled with terror as he felt as though the hand on his neck was not just a hand, but a demon’s scythe, ready to sever his head.
Despite having seen and encountered all sorts of things throughout his life, even people who didn’t hesitate to kill, this was the first time he experienced such a horrifying aura from someone.
The whole scene fell into a deadly silence.
Su Jing turned his head and glanced at Ma Tao.
Without any hesitation, Ma Tao immediately dropped to his knees in front of Su Jing. It wasn’t just because of the terrifying aura emanating from Su Jing at that moment, but also because he realized the situation.
He had thought that by following Fu Hongxue, even if there were some past grievances between him and Su Jing, Su Jing wouldn’t dare to harm him. But now, Su Jing had directly attacked Fu Hongxue, and it was as if he was toying with him.
It was evident that Su Jing didn’t even spare a glance at the insignificant lackeys around Fu Hongxue. If Fu Hongxue himself couldn’t guarantee his safety, how could he guarantee his safety?
“Mr. Su, I was blind and ignorant before. I had the audacity to have ill intentions toward Miss Shi Qing, and I apologize for running away that day. Today, I have spoken disrespectfully to you, deserving to die a thousand deaths. Please, show mercy to this insignificant person like me. Please spare me,” Ma Tao cried in fear while speaking as he bowed his head and shed tears.
The crowd was unclear about the grievances between Ma Tao and Su Jing, but that wasn’t the main focus. The main point was that Su Jing was now terrifying beyond their wildest imagination.
It felt as though he could take a life at any moment, casually and without even blinking an eye. It seemed that they finally understood something.
In Su Jing’s eyes, Fu Hongxue was probably not even considered an opponent, he was just a worthless and useless scum like any other ordinary person, capable of being casually slaughtered.
…
Su Jing, An Jihao, and the handsome bodyguard left the hotel and walked for quite a while, leaving behind a dead silence in the party venue.
Fu Hongxue and Ma Tao were lying limp on the ground, while Fu Hongxue’s companions, security guards, Ning Yingting, Nalan Fei, and the others remained stunned on the spot.
After a while, someone reluctantly regained their senses. Fu Hongxue’s companions quickly helped the pale-faced Fu Hongxue, who was curled up on the ground, and asked with anxious expressions on their faces, “Brother Fu, are you alright?”
“Young Master Fu, wake up.”
“Oh no, Young Master Fu’s eyes are lifeless. Did something happen to him?”
“Hurry, take him to the hospital.”
The group of people rushed around, taking Fu Hongxue to the hospital.
As for Ma Tao, he didn’t receive such good treatment and was carried away by several people.
The gathering could have continued, but everyone had lost their mood. Many people bid their farewells and left, dispersing the gathering in a gloomy atmosphere. No one present dared to blame Su Jing for causing trouble.
“It seems we won’t be able to ask him about the perfume anymore,” Ning Yingting sighed softly.
“Did you see how terrifying he looked just now? I think it’s best not to get too close to him,” A woman said.
“Why do I feel like he was cool just now? I’ve never liked Fu Hongxue. He casually mistreats women, changes girlfriends every few days like clothes, and the news still reports him as an upstanding and righteous individual. I find it really nauseating. If I didn’t fear offending him, I would have cursed him long ago. Su Jing’s actions are so satisfying,” A girl said softly with a small smile on her face.
“Don’t speak recklessly, be careful not to be overheard,” Ning Yingting scolded the girl who had just spoken, and the girl stuck out her tongue and refrained from saying anything anymore.
Su Jing could provoke Fu Hongxue, but they really couldn’t afford to provoke either one of them.
“It seems no one can restrain Su Jing anymore. He truly fears nothing.”
“Well, that’s not necessarily true. Fu Hongxue’s father will be furious when he hears it. Su Jing might regret his actions today when he faces the consequences.”
Nalan Fei remained silent. She disliked people like Fu Hongxue, and she also wasn’t fond of Su Jing’s flashy behavior either. In her opinion, being flashy shouldn’t be wasted on petty conflicts.
If you have the ability, then you should do something significant like Spider-Man does, you should save other people’s life if you have the ability. However, Nalan Fei had frequently mentioned Spider-Man, annoying her friends to the point where they grew tired of it.
Moreover, Spider-Man hadn’t appeared again after that incident, leaving Nalan Fei feeling helpless against her friends. As a result, she gradually learned to keep her thoughts about Spider-Man to herself.
“Brother Jing, should we return to Zhongyun City?” An Jihao asked as they left the hotel where the party was being hosted. After witnessing the scene at the gathering, An Jihao’s respect for Su Jing grew even stronger.
He also couldn’t help but have a bit of admiration for the handsome bodyguard beside him.
He had initially thought the bodyguard was just a pretty face, but it turned out that not only was he a good-looking guy, but his strength was explosive as well. Furthermore, he rarely spoke and had an icy demeanor.
Whenever someone tried to harm Su Jing, he immediately stepped in to protect him, displaying his unwavering loyalty to Su Jing. An Jihao felt that this kind of bodyguard had an exceptional aura and he was already considering hiring a similar bodyguard upon their return.
However, what he didn’t know was that this was no ordinary bodyguard. His true identity was a mighty “big man” standing four to five meters tall, the Yellow Turban Strongman from The Immortal Gourd Universe. He wasn’t someone you could easily find.
“We’ve come all this way so we can’t return empty-handed,” Su Jing spoke with a faint smile on his face.
“But we’ve offended Fu Hongxue, and he won’t cooperate with us anymore. Moreover, there’s no need for us to stay here if we want to recruit talented individuals through other means, we can do that from our homes. We can go back to Zhongyun City first,” An Jihao expressed his confusion upon hearing Su Jing’s words.
“If Fu Hongxue doesn’t agree, does that mean we can’t poach people from the Honghe Group?” Su Jing smiled, leaving An Jihao momentarily stunned before he suddenly realized the thing he kept forgetting.
