Chapter 17: 17- The enraged Duan Xue
*BAAM* an ear-piercing sound was made as the two fists collided, to everyone's surprise, Zhong Peng didn't budge but Shen Hong was sent flying.
"Ha ha ha!" "Only at this level?" he asked looking at Shen Hong who has managed to stand up after the fall, Zhong Peng was shocked by his strength but he didn't show the surprise on his face.
"Ahhhhhh" Shen Hong screamed furiously as he brought up his right hand which suddenly flashed with a faint blue light, immediately the light flashed the temperature in the room suddenly dropped, and Zhong Peng shivered as a cold wind blew on his face.
"Your physical strength is indeed impressive but it is still not enough to beat me," Shen Hong said as he clasped his hands into a fist as struck straight toward Zhong Peng's face.
Zhong Peng cursed inwardly as he immediately rolled away from his opponent's fist, Shen Hong seeing that his attack was evaded by Zhong Peng and was furious.
"Frost cloud fist!" he screamed as he aimed his punch toward Zhong Peng's chest, Zhong Peng seeing that he can't evade the punch decided counterattacked as he struck straight toward Shen Hong's fist.
As the two fists collided, a blue light burst forth as zhong peng was knocked back, he revealed a painful expression but it was replaced quickly with a clown-like smile, Shen Hong was surprised to see the smile on Zhong Peng's face but he didn't reveal it on his face he suddenly stuck out his left fist, it had the same blue light and ruthlessly smashed towards Zhong Peng's chest again.
Zhong Peng seeing this suddenly twisted his waist as he smashed toward Shen Hong's chest, Shen Hong was caught off guard and so he was sent flying as Zhong Peng's fist smashed his chest.
There was no movement from Shen Hong after he landed, everyone was shocked except Zhou Shun who was smiling foolishly.
"Duan Xue I told you that he is a very good fighter," Zhou Shun said with a playful tone.
"Good fighter your head" Zhong Peng cursed inwardly his fist was still hurting from the earlier impact.
"You," Duan Xue said pointing at Zhou Shun furiously.
"What, are you planning on going back on your words, hahaha," Zhou Shun said tauntingly, the two people from the people that came with Duan quickly rushed to Shen Hong's side to check his status.
Shen Hong lay face down on the floor with both hands clutching his chest, blood was dripping out of his nose and mouth.
"Junior brother Shen Hong!" Duan Xue cried out seeing the state Shen Hong was in.
Zhong Peng was now feeling bad for her, they have both fallen to Zhou Shun's plot.
"Does sister Duan Xue want to back out of her words?" Zhou Shun said with a strange smile on his face, seeing the state Shen Hong was in didn't change his heart.
****************************
A few moments later Zhong Peng could be seen walking out of the building with Zhou Shun who happily fondling a pouch filled with qi stone.
"You have achieved your aim now leave me alone," Zhong Peng said angrily as he walked away, he was angry that Zhou Shun used him to accomplish his goal.
"Here you go," he said tossing a pouch over to Zhong Peng as always.
******************************
The full moon hung high in the sky, casting an eerie glow over the landscape below. As the night wore on, a figure could be seen making his way down the street.
After walking for a while he came to a stop at a secluded part of the street.
"Three of you could come now come out, " the figure said turning towards a direction.
After he said that three people jumped out of the dark.
"You have been stalking me for a while now, I think it is time you made your intentions clear," the figure said with a calm smile.
The figure was Zhong Peng of course, after leaving he was about to find a good place to spend the night when the old man told him that he was being followed when he used his spirit sense he was able to sense three figures lurking in the dark with unknown intentions.
"Hahaha, your spirit senses are quite impressive, to think that you noticed us even though we hid quite alright," one of the dark figures who seems to be the leader of the team said.
"What are you here for, I am sure you are not here to rain praises on me," Zhong Peng said in a calm voice.
"You are quite smart but not smart enough, you seem to have offended people you shouldn't have" the dark figure replied.
"So they must have sent you to kill me then," Zhong Peng said expressionlessly.
"Not yet, we are here to extend an invitation to you, " the dark figure said.
" What invitation, " Zhong Peng asked curiously.
" Meet me at the golden rose, third floor by noon tomorrow and I'll tell you about it," the dark figure said before disappearing into the dark alongside his companions.
