“That little punk was a soldier for five years, Scar. He’s considered a vet. Super skilled. Don’t underestimate him!” Ned reminded them when favonovel.com thought of how even Dan had been fearful when facing off against Jack.
Dan had claimed that favonovel.com could defeat a hundred men alone, even though Ned thought that it was an exaggerated boast. Still, to be spoken so highly of by Dan, favonovel.com imagined that Jack would have some level of skill.
“Don’t worry. We have this many men with us. I even met a busy-bodying little punk two days ago and now he’s dead because of me! Plus, we have so many people here!” Scar chuckled, then gave Ned a cold stare. “Did you really think I’d be on the same level as you after managing to become one of Master Howard’s high rank assistants? Hah! I’ve proven my worth with my fists!”
The two of them continued talking. It took a while for them to notice a red light sparking underneath the banyan tree, flickering sporadically. It looked like there was a man standing there.
“What’s someone doing there?” Scar waved his hand. His men stopped in their tracks. “It’s already 12.30 at night, and there’s someone smoking beneath that tree?”
Suspicion crossed Ned’s features. It was so late. How could there be someone in a place as quiet as this?
“Go and take a look!”
Scar suddenly tingled with a sense of danger. The feeling was a powerful presence. It was clear that it was unusual to have someone here this late at night. The group of men quickly went toward the tree.
“It’s you!” Ned recognized Jack after careful observation. His expression instantly darkened. “Brother Scar, this is the punk we’re looking for. He beat us up. I want this bastard dead!”
Jack casually exhaled, his breath mingling with a cloud of smoke. He flicked the cigarette butt onto the ground. “I never imagined that you’d have a death wish. I thought that beating a few of you up and sparing your lives in the KTV was enough. It seems like that was the wrong decision!”
“Hmph. Don’t you have eyes, you punk? Do you see how many men we’ve got surrounding you? And it was the wrong decision, you say?”
Ned chuckled and continued. “I know why you’re awake so late at night. You must be so scared of us looking for you to take revenge, so that’s why you couldn’t sleep—because you were so anxious. And so, you came out for a smoke to settle the fear in your heart!” Ned paused there, then resumed, his tone even more brazen and arrogant than before. “Only, you never expected us to find you so fast, eh? Now you know how powerful our Master Howard is, huh?”
“Brother, favonovel.com doesn’t look like he’s scared of us!” The man with yellow hair who had been beaten black and blue earlier back in KTV voiced the concern aloud. He was still a bit fearful of Jack. After all, Jack’s frightening fighting prowess had already terrified favonovel.com back in the KTV lounge.
“What do you know!”
Ned slapped the man’s head. “It’s not that he’s not scared. I think we’ve scared favonovel.com so much that he’s wetted his pants but has no choice but to act all cool now that we’re already here!”
“There’s an abandoned building not far from here. We’ll settle it there!” Jack answered lightly, staring straight at the other man. “I don’t want your screams of pain to disturb my wife and daughter’s sleep!”
“An abandoned building?” Ned was stunned for a moment, then a wicked smile curved up his face. “So you’ve chosen the location for your grave? You’re scared to let your wife see your dead body at favonovel.com doorstep? All right then. I’ll make sure that I’ll destroy you completely. Then I’ll go fool around with your woman after I kill you!”
