The sound of clapping started the members of the muscular man and his subordinates, and they immediately turned their heads towards the sound, but they instantly raised their eyebrows when they saw Chen Li sauntering.
On the other hand, Yun Qing’s eyes lit up when she saw Chen Li, and she stopped crying instantly. Even her previously frightened expression turned to relief, and she continued to look at him longingly.
Chen Li leisurely walked towards them as he nonchalantly spoke. “I didn’t expect the Green Dragon Gang to do such a despicable job.”
“Who are you?” The muscular man shouted at Chen Li; he took his gun and pointed it at him. “This is none of your business, leave this place, or I will shoot you.”
His subordinates also took out their weapons and prepared to attack Chen Li, but Duan Yiren pulled the muscular man’s hand and whispered to him. ‘Hey, Boss! Are you blind already? He is that silver-haired guy!’
The muscular man was stunned for a moment and observed Chen Li, and he finally realized that the man in front of him was their boss’s target.
“Just as that woman told you, I’m Mo Xie, and I’m your boss’s nightmare,” Chen Li said indifferently.
Soon Chen Li’s body was covered in Crimson Flames, just like Feng Xian’er, he became more skilled at using it after learning to use it for so long, and he made a gesture to challenge the muscular man. “Come, shoot me.”
*Bang*
Hearing his taunt, the muscular man fired his gun, but Chen Li remained relaxed. Using the Divine God Eyes, he could see the bullet shooting toward him in slow motion.
Chen Li smirked, moved sideways to dodge the bullet, and it hit the metal door behind him.
The atmosphere became quiet, they looked at Chen Li with wide eyes, and their jaws dropped; they were shocked to see he could dodge the bullets so casually.
‘Crap! He must be one of the possessors of superpower!’ The muscular man grumbled in his heart, and he fired his gun again in succession.
*Bang… Bang… bang…*
Even so, Chen Li could easily dodge all the bullets, and he walked over to the muscular man slowly, causing him to move backward out of fear.
*Click… Click…*
The muscular man continued to shoot his gun, but the bullets ran out, and he shouted at his men. “Hurry! Beat this guy!”
Although they felt scared of Chen Li, especially since they didn’t have superpowers, they still followed their boss’ orders and attacked him.
Chen Li shook his head, dodged their attacks one by one, and spoke to them. “Honestly, I didn’t want to fight with you guys, and I came only to save that girl. However, since you attacked me first, I will teach you a lesson.”
After saying that, Chen Li beat them directly but didn’t seriously injure them. He only punched their hands and kicked their feet, causing their weapons to fall off, and they fell to the ground groaning in pain.
Although Chen Li only used a little bit of strength, those people felt really painful from his punches and kicks, for they were only ordinary humans.
On the other hand, Yun Qing looked at Chen Li in shock, but her expression changed to joy as she saw them lying on the floor.
Seeing that his men were trounced by him, the muscular man dashed and attacked Chen Li, and his body turned like stone.
“Oh? You have a stone superpower, eh?” Chen Li said in surprise, but he caught the muscular man’s hand. “I wonder how strong your body will be after turning to stone.”
“You- Gah!” The muscular man had not finished his words yet, Chen Li had already attacked his abdomen with his knee, and he gave an uppercut to his chin. “Gah!”
The muscular man was sent flying upwards, and he hit the floor very hard right after, causing him to vomit out a bit of blood. ‘Fuck! How can his attacks be so painful even though I’ve used my superpower?’
Suddenly, Duan Yiren disappeared to attack him, but Chen Li shook his head and moved extremely fast, and he immediately caught and strangled her neck. “Ugh! Let me go!”
“Even though you have a shadow superpower, it’s meaningless before my eyes.” Chen Li then brought Duan Yiren in front of the muscular man, took out the Sword of Destiny, and put it on his neck. “I know you guys were forced to do this because of Long Aotian’s orders, so I will give you two choices, obey me or die.”
The muscular man broke out in cold sweat as he felt Chen Li’s sword graze his neck; he could feel blood dripping from his neck. Moreover, he had already experienced first-hand his powerful attack, and his body was still in great pain. .
However, their eyes suddenly widened when they saw Yun Qing behind Chen Li. Even more so when they saw Xiao Huoli’s presence, they had not noticed her before, but she could suddenly appear before them.
Chen Li glanced sideways, and Xiao Huoli immediately said. “She wasn’t hurt and just scared because of these people.”
“En, that’s good.” Chen Li nodded to her, looked back at the leader of the Green Dragon Gang, and asked him again. “So what’s your answer? Do you want to obey me or die? If you don’t decide soon, I will crush this woman’s neck.”
“Ugh!” Duan Yiren groaned in pain as Chen Li squeezed her neck tighter, causing her face turn red and have difficulty breathing.
Yun Qing gasped in shock after hearing Chen Li’s words, and she opened her mouth to say something to him.
However, Xiao Huoli patted her on the shoulder, and she shook her head.
Seeing that, Yun Qing nodded and immediately closed her mouth again, but it was apparent that she was looking at Chen Li with great curiosity.
The muscular man and his subordinates looked at Chen Li fearfully; they could sense that Chen Li was not bluffing, especially after they saw Duan Yiren’s expression. Her situation scared them so much, for they feared dying.
After thinking about it carefully, the muscular man immediately stood up and answered Chen Li with a trembling body. “We will obey you, so please let Yiren go.”

“Good!” Chen Li nodded in satisfaction after his answer, and he immediately released Duan Yiren from his stranglehold, and she hid behind the muscular man, for she was still petrified of him.
Since Chen Li did need subordinates to fight those people without being conspicuous, he wanted to recruit them as his subordinates. He turned the sword into a necklace, put it around his neck, and asked the muscular man. “What’s your name? And how many members do you have?”
“I am Lu Zhe, and my green dragon gang has 150 members.” Lu Zhe respectfully replied, still feeling alert, especially towards Xiao Huoli, who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
‘150 people? Sigh, even though I have quite a lot of money, it’s not enough to buy a place and finance them. Moreover, I still have to build my factory later, so I must think of a way to earn more money.’ Chen Li felt dizzy with the number of members of the Green Dragon Gang, so he asked for Lu Zhe’s phone number and ordered him. “For now, I want all of you to hide in the northern forests, and you don’t need to think about your families. If you don’t appear publicly, Long Aotian will definitely not do anything to them. Once I get a place, all of you will move there, and I will train you guys to become the strongest gang in this country.”
“The strongest gang!?” Lu Zhe and his subordinates there gasped in shock at Chen Li’s words, and he asked. “Is it true that you can make us the strongest?”
“Of course, I can do it.” Chen Li answered flatly. “However, if any of you dare to betray me, then I will not hesitate to kill you, and I will also kill your families.”
“We understand.” They fearfully answered him.
“Now leave this place and go straight to the northern forest.” Chen Li ordered them.
“Yes.”
However, just as Duan Yiren was about to leave with them, Chen Li immediately stopped her. “Since I need someone to communicate with them, you must stay by my side, and you will be our contact.”
After hearing that, Duan Yiren froze on the spot. She glanced at Lu Zhe, but he only nodded at her. She could only let out a resigned sigh and answer Chen Li. “All right, I’ll stay by your side, Boss.”
After they left, Yun Qing immediately jumped into Chen Li’s arms, and she cried loudly. “Sob~ You are Li Gege, right? Sob~ Good thing you saved me, Li Gege. Sob… They really scared me. Sob~”
Chen Li was stunned by Yun Qing’s attitude, he felt familiar with her but couldn’t remember her, and he asked in confusion. “Who are you anyway? And how did you recognize me?”
Hearing that, Yun Qing let go of her embrace, looked at Chen Li, and wiped her tears. “Did you forget about me, Li Gege? It’s me, Yun Qing.”
“Huh? You are that crybaby, Little Qing?” Chen Li asked in surprise; he had just realized Yun Qing’s identity, especially since they hadn’t seen each other for a long time. Moreover, she had changed quite a bit, and she looked much more mature than before.
