Chen Nan had dealt with all of Zhou Long’s underlings, but he didn’t pursue them as they fled.
Instead, gasping for breath, he looked toward Wang Meng, who was pale-faced like a terrified bird. Holding a blood-dripping cleaver in one hand, he stepped toward Wang Meng.
With every step he took, a bright red footprint was left behind. 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
"I clearly gave you a way out before, why did you force me into a corner?" Chen Nan panted heavily, his voice devoid of any emotion.
He knew the rules of these nightclubs.
Many nightclubs forbade fighting and brawling.
However,
if a conflict did arise and the other party did not pursue it, even the nightclub’s management would not interfere in their disputes.
But Wang Meng had intended to use the nightclub to eliminate him, which infuriated Chen Nan.
"I was wrong, I was truly wrong!" Wang Meng, frightened out of his wits, collapsed on the ground, a pale yellow liquid flowing out from beneath him.
He truly regretted trying to get rid of Chen Nan through Zhou Long.
But he had not anticipated that Chen Nan’s strength would be so formidable, that he could take down several dozen of Zhou Long’s underlings all by himself.
If he had known earlier,
even if he were given a hundred times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to oppose Chen Nan!
Chen Nan glanced at the cleaver in his hand, now dyed red with blood, and said softly, "Every person must bear the karma for their actions."
"A mere ’I was wrong’ cannot absolve you of your previous actions!"
Wang Meng only saw Chen Nan raise the cleaver in his hand.
The next moment,
a streak of blood flashed in his pupils.
Then, a heart-wrenching pain surged from his left arm.
In shock, he looked toward his left shoulder and saw nothing above it; his arm had fallen to the ground.
Blood spurted from the severed limb in a gruesome sight.
He screamed in terror, reaching out with his right hand to pick up his own arm, only to find that his right arm had also been rendered useless by Chen Nan.
Without a moment’s hesitation, he lay on the ground, bit down on the fabric of his torn sleeve, and ran out like a madman. He had to get to the hospital to have his arm reattached.
He didn’t want to become disabled.
Chen Nan dropped the cleaver and approached the bathroom door, saying softly, "Xiaoyu, come out. Let’s go home!"
Upon hearing Chen Nan’s voice, Nie Xiaoyu - her eyes red and swollen from crying, her face full of terror - finally opened the bathroom door.
When she saw Chen Nan covered in blood, her heart jerked violently and tears spilled over once again. Her voice choked up, "Why are you covered in blood? Are you hurt?"
She had never seen such a horrific scene before; although her heart was filled with fear, her greater concern was for Chen Nan’s situation.
Chen Nan gave a wry smile, "Although the Dao Master spent two years as a vegetarian in the mountains, he also developed some abilities. This blood... it all belongs to the bad guys."
Having said this, he discarded his blood-soaked robe, revealing his muscular physique.
Then he cleaned the bloodstains from his body as best as he could in the bathroom.
Seeing no injuries on Chen Nan, Nie Xiaoyu’s anxious heart finally settled.
Only,
when she saw Chen Nan standing stark naked before her, her heartbeat quickened and her cheeks flushed red, even though Chen Nan had his back to her.
But she could see Chen Nan’s formidable Dragon Root through the bathroom mirror in front of him.
Quivering,
it stirred her spirit.
Causing ripples in her once-calm sea of heart.
"This robe cannot be worn anymore!" Chen Nan sighed lightly, took out the sewing kit he carried with him, and tossed the bloodied robe into the trash can.
After doing this, he put on boxer briefs and, bare-chested, led Nie Xiaoyu by the hand out of the bathroom.
Hiss!
Seeing the horrific scene before her and the blood all over the floor, Nie Xiaoyu couldn’t help but gasp in shock, the strong visual impact and the thick scent of blood assaulting her senses.
She pulled her hand free from Chen Nan’s grasp and ran out, covering her mouth.
By the time she reached the stairwell, she was crouched on the ground, violently vomiting, not only bringing up her dinner but even her bile.
Chen Nan turned to the trembling lady in the corner, "Hello, could you trouble you for a bottle of water?"
The young woman nodded her head in terror, fetched a bottle of mineral water from the room, and handed it to Chen Nan with a nervous expression.
Chen Nan gave her a smile, "Thank you!"
The woman quickly backed away, feeling quite wary of Chen Nan; after all, he was a ruthless character who single-handedly took down more than forty thugs!
However.
This ruthless character seemed to be very polite!
"Rinse your mouth," Chen Nan unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and handed it to Nie Xiaoyu beside him.
Nie Xiaoyu uttered a sound of acknowledgment, rinsed her mouth with the water, and then accompanied Chen Nan to the ground floor.
"How much for the mineral water?" Chen Nan asked the cashier inside the bar who looked petrified.
The cashier was taken aback.
She felt that Chen Nan’s act was unnecessary.
After all, you’ve flipped so many people already, why bother to pay for a bottle of mineral water?
But she still said nervously, "Five yuan..."
Chen Nan scanned a code with his phone to pay the five yuan, and then, leading Nie Xiaoyu by the hand, walked out of the Back Palace KTV.
But at that moment.
Several police cars sped toward them.
They stopped directly in front of the Back Palace KTV, blocking Chen Nan and Nie Xiaoyu’s path.
Looking at the police getting out of the cars, Nie Xiaoyu subconsciously gripped Chen Nan’s hand tighter, her pretty face devoid of any color, "It seems the trouble has escalated."
Chen Nan also put on a somber expression.
He hadn’t expected Zhou Long to choose to call the police.
Though he had never been part of the underworld, he understood the clear division between black and white.
Especially those in the underworld, they have their own limits, including maintaining an absolute distance from the police.
Even when faced with issues they couldn’t resolve, they would rather swallow their teeth than let them show.
If they involved the police, they would undoubtedly become a laughingstock among their peers.
Now, Zhou Long going to the police was completely unexpected to him.
Because once the police were alarmed, it would be complicated for him to get out of this unscathed.
After all, he had injured many people today.
Seeing Nie Xiaoyu shaking, Chen Nan exhaled turbidly and comforted her in a low voice, "Don’t worry, I can resolve this."
Seeing the figures descending from the police cars, Zhou Long, hiding in the shadows, quickly stepped forward and said to Sun Liang from the East City Public Security Bureau, "Squad Leader Sun, you finally arrived. If you hadn’t come sooner, this mad, cruel devil might have escaped!"
"This man is extremely vicious. He has injured more than forty people in my establishment, and the victims are still upstairs."
"Now that you are here, please apprehend this utterly wicked man and subject him to the full extent of the law. I want him to face severe legal punishment," he said, looking coldly at Chen Nan, feeling a strong sense of indignation in his heart.
Though Zhou Long had a familiar relationship with Sun Liang, having dined and bathed together, calling the police today had made him feel a deep sense of humiliation.
Sun Liang looked at Chen Nan emotionlessly, about to speak, but his pupils then trembled violently, and after coming to his senses, he exclaimed in surprise, "Mr. Chen, how come it’s you?"
