Chapter 981: Chapter 970: True Qi Body Protection
Is it just to repay the boss’s gratitude?
If that’s really the case, then this Tiger Brother is quite loyal to the Jianghu code, but why don’t they target Ning Fan?
“I’m Hu Laoer, just a straightforward guy, but I know how to repay kindness. Ninth Master, I know how strong you are, but if you really force me, I don’t mind taking someone down with me!”
“Tiger Brother, what’s there to discuss, let’s fight him, we’re not afraid of him alone!”
“Yeah, Tiger Brother, don’t be afraid of him!”
Just as Tiger Brother was about to negotiate terms with Ning Fan, his subordinates were not backing down. At this point, it was better to die standing than to live kneeling!
Ning Fan couldn’t help but laugh at this moment, “Hahaha, it’s really funny, you know I’m formidable, so you don’t dare to attack me and instead target a woman?”
“Hehehe, yeah, otherwise, what’s the choice? At least it’s a psychological comfort, right?”
Tiger Brother also laughed self-deprecatingly, not because he didn’t hate Ning Fan, but considering the disparity in strength, dealing with Ning Fan or Ninth Master was undoubtedly like a mayfly shaking a tree!
But Baby Hai was different. She didn’t have the same awesome abilities as Ning Fan!
Upon hearing this, Ning Fan couldn’t help but regard this man differently. Although this man seemed large and rough, he wasn’t brainless, yet unfortunately, this man chose the wrong path.
“Ninth Master, let my brothers leave. I guarantee this pregnant woman won’t be harmed. If you really force me, it won’t be good for anyone. I suppose you don’t want to see blood today, do you?”
Even though it had come to this, Tiger Brother still didn’t intend to completely fall out with Ning Fan. Fighting Ning Fan was the worst outcome; they weren’t here to die, and Tiger Brother didn’t want to die, even though he was prepared to do so.
“I thought you were ready to die, but it turns out you’re also afraid of death?”
“Even ants cling to life, and I’m not just thinking about myself, but also my brothers. Your Ninth Master’s feats, I often bragged about them to the brothers!”
Tiger Brother’s forehead was drenched in sweat. Honestly, confronting Ning Fan was an extremely taxing affair because Ning Fan’s aura wasn’t on the same level as theirs. Facing such a ruthless person, even one as vicious as himself felt uneasy.
It was because he understood they weren’t on the same level that Tiger Brother knew, if they really fought Ning Fan today, the outcome would undoubtedly be disastrous for them.
“Is that so?” Ning Fan squinted his eyes, looking as if he wasn’t planning to back down, while also glancing at Tiger Brother’s few subordinates.
As Ning Fan’s gaze moved, Tiger Brother’s subordinates swiftly pointed their guns at him.
Their eyes were filled with resentment and hatred. Unlike the still sober Tiger Brother, his subordinates were completely blinded by the flames of hatred, including the one whose hand was pierced by Ning Fan with a chopstick earlier, now grimly raising his gun.
“What a pity, your brothers aren’t as protective of life as you are. So what should I do?”
Ning Fan grinned, still standing in front of Tiger Brother, while the pregnant woman in Tiger Brother’s grip was almost fainting from crying.
Tiger Brother’s face changed, and the fingers holding the gun turned pale. He gritted his teeth, glaring at Ning Fan, not blinking once.
“Ning Fan, don’t provoke him, be careful of the pregnant woman…”
Seeing Tiger Brother’s strange expression, Baby Hai’s heart was in her throat, afraid that if Ning Fan kept provoking him, Tiger Brother might impulsively harm the pregnant woman.
Ning Fan nodded slightly, his gaze lingering on Tiger Brother’s face.
“Don’t force me…”
“I’m not forcing you; you’re forcing yourself. Release the pregnant woman, and I’ll spare your lives. Your crimes aren’t that bad yet, living out your days in prison is better than dying at my hands.”
As if stating a fact, Ning Fan’s tone was quite calm.
However, his words had a huge impact on Tiger Brother, who was struggling intensely inside.
“Surrendering and getting caught is your best option.”
“Are you kidding? Do you wanna just let it slide like that? Tiger Brother, don’t listen to him, this guy’s just spewing nonsense. At worst, we’ll go down together!”
“Tiger Brother, we’re not afraid to die. Just nod, and we’ll shoot together. I don’t believe this guy can dodge bullets!”
“Everyone shut up!”
Tiger Brother shouted angrily, his eyes red, and the surroundings finally fell silent.
Staring with his bloodshot eyes, like a beast on the edge of eruption, he finally turned his gaze back to Ning Fan’s calm face.
The pressure Ning Fan gave him was invisible, yet deadly. The worst part was, only he could feel it, only he, who was truly confronting Ning Fan, could sense it.
If his subordinates could feel the terrible pressure Ning Fan gave him, Tiger Brother was sure, they wouldn’t dare speak so loudly now.
“Hehehe…”
At this moment, for some reason, Tiger Brother began to laugh deeply.
His laughter sounded quite unsettling, even with a hint of madness.
“Ninth Master is indeed worthy of the title, I, Hu Laoer, concede, but look at my brothers, do they seem like they want to live?”
Tiger Brother grinned grimly at Ning Fan.
“Are you really prepared to do this? No regrets?”
Ning Fan’s eyes gradually became dangerous too. He had already guessed the other’s choice and couldn’t help but feel regret for the choice.
Tiger Brother shook his head, stating firmly, “Thanks for reminding me. Since that’s their choice, how can I choose for them? But dying under Zhonghai’s Ninth Master, it’s worth it!”
“Hey, calm down. Surrendering won’t lead to death, don’t act rashly!”
Baby Hai realized something too, immediately shouting anxiously, holding her breath, focusing on Tiger Brother’s hand, ready to act if Tiger Brother showed any tendency to harm the pregnant woman.
“Let’s see if the legendary Ninth Master really is as formidable as the legend, with three heads and six arms!”
Tiger Brother pushed the pregnant woman behind, Xiong Kuo’s massive body charged forward, pulling the trigger of his gun towards Ning Fan.
Bang bang bang!
“Aaaaah!”
The store was filled with continuous gunfire, and the ensuing screams almost drowned out the gunshots.
Once Tiger Brother acted, his little brothers too, mercilessly pulled the triggers.
Ning Fan shielded Baby Hai behind him, using Protective True Qi to block all the bullets in front of him.
Witnessing this, Tiger Brother and his little brothers were all stunned.
“How is this possible?!”
“Nothing is impossible, you just have too narrow a perspective!”
