Chapter 61: First Battle (2)

....Li Xianyu and Kato Eagle were discussing the exotic customs of Western girls, who were theorists. The former said that only those who were gifted like himself could conquer them. The latter said that although he was not gifted, his fingering techniques were godlike and could rival those of the former’s.
Each of them held their own words as they argued with each other.
King Kong sat at the side and watched the two old veterans talk. He was full of envy, but at the same time, he was sad to think of when he could be as good as them.
Suddenly, Li Xianyu’s hairs stood on end as he felt a pair of sharp eyes lock onto him.
Squinting in the direction of the pair of eyes, he saw a handsome blonde with blue eyes, somewhat similar in appearance to Victoria.
Li Xianyu was stunned. He didn’t understand why the other party stared at him like this. Was it because he was the most handsome Asian man in the room and that the foreign lad was jealous?
“Who’s that guy?” Li Xianyu asked in a low voice.
“Ryder Adrian, a rising star of the Superpowers Association. In 2015, he was recognized as one of the ten outstanding young demon descendants. His alias is the Little Master.” Mo Fei wore a pair of black high heels as she clattered over and sat down. Then, she asked the waiter for a plate of pasta, a stack of fruit plates and a glass of orange juice.
This was a table for four. As she took a seat beside King Kong, his face changed as he scampered to the seat beside Li Xianyu.
Kato Eagle had no choice but to give up his seat, sitting beside Mo Fei. “You’re a leader, anyway. Why don’t you sit over there? How embarrassing is this? Out of the whole company, only Lightning King and Thunderbolt Battle Lady is there.”
Mo Fei replied in a hostile manner, “You’re a senior employee, why don’t you go?”
Kato Eagle shrugged his shoulders. “Not willing to.”
Mo Fei rolled her eyes in reply, “Me neither.”
Speaking of colleagues in the company, Li Xianyu met them very rarely except when he was eating. Most of his colleagues were running errands and rarely turned up at the company. They were either in underground prisons, or living luxurious lives.
Not mentioning the other divisions in the other countries, in the headquarters here, out of the ten top-ranked employees, he had only seen San Wu. There were 200 senior employees, as well as a vast number of junior mid-level trainees, but only less than one percent of these people stayed in Baoze’s building.
“I think he’s hostile to me,” Li Xianyu remarked.
“You?” Mo Fei snorted, “You’re a weak chicken. Why would people be hostile to you?”
Li Xianyu said shamelessly, “Is it because I’m handsome?”
Mo Fei laughed as the flowers shook. “Ouch, you’re a really interesting newcomer. Didn’t you see that all the female colleagues are looking at that foreign handsome man? Who cares about you? You’re just a laughing stock.”
Perhaps, Li Xianyu was usually very thick-skinned, hence she spoke so casually to him. People usually did not care about the laughing stock’s self-esteem.
“Especially the young Ryder, who is well-known in the Superpower Association. His sister is the head of the group and the legal heir of her demon descendant family. He’s also talented, particularly because of his powers. Despite having just awakened, he often goes abroad with the anti-terrorism team for missions. Two years ago, when he was only 20 years old, he became famous for wiping out an international criminal gang composed of people of his own descent. Their forces outnumbered him by ten times. His powers were critical in that victory.”
“He also likes live broadcasting, on the foreign version of the Ancient Demon app. I can send you a link, do you want to download one?” Mo Fei squinted and laughed.
“What is his power, why is it so powerful?”
“Rommis, a monster living underground in foreign mythology. It has no eyes, but their hearing is unbelievably good. Within a hundred miles, no sounds can escape from Rommis’s ears,” Mo Fei said, “This is a foreign saying. We call this power Super Ears.”
“Jealousy gives me an appetite.” Li Xianyu devoured a piece of beef. He was suddenly stunned as he looked at Kato Eagle.
“No wonder he was hostile to me, he overheard us talking about his sister?”
Kato Eagle was speechless.
Li Xianyu did not stop eating until his stomach was on the brink of bursting. The greatest aftereffect of his powers was that he was prone to hunger. After another glass of red wine, he belched comfortably and left the table to go to the toilet.
He walked through the corridor and met Tongtong in front of the toilets. The small loli stood by the wall with tears in her eyes, looking pitiful. Evidently, something had happened to her.
Li Xianyu went over and said gently, “Tongtong, what’s wrong?”
The small loli looked up, and her eyes were full of tears. “Mouse, I have a mouse inside me.”
Li Xianyu was confused.
The small loli, with a shriveled mouth, complained, “Sister Mo Fei said that I almost killed Li Bai the other day, and she wanted to punish me… It’s too much! I just came to the company, yet she treated me like this. I thought they had forgotten, but they would not let me off…”
She whimpered for half a day, complaining like a little girl. Li Xianyu was still not clear about the situation.
Li Xianyu waved his hand. “So you’re crying here because she punished you?”
“No, it’s not!” the small loli shouted as she felt wronged. “Sister Mo Fei put a mouse in my skirt. I… I… dare not go to the toilet.”
Ah?
Li Xianyu looked at the lower part of the small loli’s body. Two slender, white and tender legs poked out of her white skirt. She was wearing square leather shoes meant for ladies. Although her legs were put together and she looked afraid, but there were no mice in sight.
“Is there a mouse?”
“Yes,” cried the small loli. “In my skirt.”
Li Xianyu lifted up her skirt and saw only one cartoon character and two small legs.
The small loli said, “The skirt, the skirt is a weapon given to me by the boss. Can you try with your powers?”
The look in Li Xianyu’s eyes suddenly changed. Was this skirt a weapon? That was so cool. Should I pull it out and take it away, and give it to my future daughter as an heirloom?
He tried to hold back his bold idea. “Do I gather the power on my hand?”
The small loli nodded.
Li Xianyu tried to follow suit. After awakening, he made great strides in his physique. It was just a matter of time before he mastered the art of practicing qi. Of course, in terms of practicing qi, he still had no talents.
He concentrated the powers on his palms. When he reached under Tongtong’s skirt, he was surprised to find that his hand was in a wide space. Not touching her two short legs was the best proof.
This piece of space was not small. Li Xianyu put his whole arm into it before he reached the bottom. By feeling, he guessed that he had touched a pile of snacks.
…
The reception continued, and the two bear-like people drank like it was the end of the world.
Ryder and his companion Smith went to the bathroom together, whispering bad words about Baoze Group all the way.
Ryder said, “This damned company is so big, yet we’re only being served by two people. Many years ago, Vice President Giger and I came to China. The Taoist Association gave us a wonderful reception. There were priests on 24-hour standby. Everyone was respectful and cordial.”
Smith sneered two times. “This guy surnamed Qin acts like a big shot. He’s not even a Gokudo Path guy. He doesn’t even want to show his face. Nevertheless, it doesn’t matter. The purpose of our coming here is to talk about our alliance with them. The Great Deities Palace is about to open. We must return to the US with a full load.”
They turned the corner and their eyes widened.
An unthinkable scene was occurring in front of them. A man squatted on the ground, putting his whole arm under the little girl’s skirt, searching up and down…
The poor little girl had tears of grievance in her eyes. She was about to cry out of fear. Young and weak, she could only silently endure the blasphemy and aggression of the pervert.
The little girl pleaded pitifully, “Are… are there any mice?”
“I haven’t felt it yet. You have a spacious weapon.”
“Hurry up, I’m afraid.”
“Yes, yes, I know.”
Ryder and Smith inexplicably thought of the peach blossom season that year, when they first joined the Superpowers Association and stood under the banner of freedom, pledging to safeguard the country, the people, uphold justice as well as swearing not to spare any criminals…
Their blood started to boil.

Ryder said, “Oh my god.”
Smith said,”F*** you.”
They charged over almost at the same time.
The lolita screamed as Li Xianyu heard the movement behind him. As soon as he got up and looked back, he got kicked in the chest and a hint of blood surged in his throat. The man who kicked him had just landed, and the next man continued, and an elbow hit him in the face. Li Xianyu reacted very quickly and blocked the strike with his arms defending his chest.
Bang! There was a dull thud.
The man did not retreat an inch, while Li Xianyu slid out several meters, and barely stood firm.
“It’s you?” Ryder recognized him, and his rage burned stronger.
Isn’t this kid the yellow pig who just joked about his sister? He’s a scumbag indeed.
“Why the f*** are you hitting me for?” Li Xianyu was furious, and between several breaths, the pain in his arm disappeared. He shook his hand and glared at his opponent.
Ryder was hostile to Li Xianyu. To make things worse, he saw the scene of him “molesting” the young girl just now. Without further ado, he turned and kicked out swiftly, his strikes as fast as the wind.
Li Xianyu took the brunt of another kick, but still blocked with his left arm. He was kicked to the wall, the bones in his arms were burning, and he could feel that his bones were cracked.
The opponent’s strength, speed and combat skills were far better than him, but there was a big gap compared with Thunderbolt Battle Lady.
Is it because he just said dirty jokes about his sister and then he came out looking for his trouble? How arrogant the Americans are.
Ryder took the opportunity to strike and dealt a punch at Li Xianyu’s face. This attack didn’t hit as Li Xianyu bent down and avoided the blow. His fist hit the wall, and fragments of tiles, fell to the ground with a crack.
“Tongtong, go get someone!” Li Xianyu cried out.
At this time, Lolita Tongtong was pulled back by Smith, who asked if she was alright. But Lolita did not understand English, and instead cried. She punched and kicked at Smith as she yelled, “Let me go, bad guy.”
Smith didn’t understand Chinese. The two people were basically having a fruitless conversation, like a chicken and duck trying to communicate. Ryder, who understood Chinese, was busy attacking Li Xianyu.
His fighting skills were very modern, and paid attention to strength and speed. His punches were swift like the wind, his kick fast and ruthless. Coupled with the terrifyingly strong physique of demon descendants, ordinary people would either die or get severely wounded by his blows.
At the same time, the man’s qi cultivation was also good, and was superior to Li Xianyu in all aspects.
Ryder’s right palm formed the shape of an eagle’s beak, and as his move flashed, there seemed to be the cry of an eagle. A bloody wound immediately formed on Li Xianyu’s right shoulder, and blood gurgled out. But a few seconds later, the horrifying wound recovered, and he was intact.
Ryder raised his eyebrows and remarked in an Oxford accent, “Self-healing ability? No wonder you can persist for so long.”
Li Xianyu’s face was cold, as he retorted in a Shanghai accent, “F*** you.”
Ryder smirked coldly, “I’ve always found that self-healing powers means my opponents are standard sandbags, and I don’t have to show mercy.”
Li Xianyu was silent and he dealt a punch from the side, but was blocked by Ryder’s left hand. Qi wrapped around his right fist and he punched Li Xianyu’s face.
Crack! In an instant, Li Xianyu’s nose bridge and facial bones were broken, and two of his teeth were shattered. Li Xianyu fell back violently, but grabbed Ryder’s arm in the moment of falling. He roared lowly, pulled Ryder forward and hit him with a headbutt.
Ryder’s nose bridge cracked under the most primitive impact between flesh. He roared and kicked Li Xianyu like he was a stray cat, and he flew back a few meters.
Li Xianyu vomited the food in his stomach as he staggered to stand up. He was entirely different from Ryder who was holding his nose and groaning in pain. His injuries inflicted an excruciating pain on him and his face was pale. However, his superpower was triggered and it was helping him recover.
His abilities are not suitable for head-on combat, and were more suitable for assistance and investigation.
In terms of melee skills and attacks, he is far from comparable to Thunderbolt Battle Lady. And the last thing I’m afraid of is getting beat up.
After all kinds of thoughts flashed in his mind, Li Xianyu felt that he had a chance. He could wear his opponent to death as the two injured each other, but he had to be careful not to get hit in his vital organs, or he would die.
He had a wealth of actual combat experience on how to protect vital parts, as a Big Sister named Thunderbolt Battle Lady had trained him well.
In the next wave of attacks, Li Xianyu became a sandbag, as an enraged Ryder no longer held back. In addition to protecting his vital organs, Li Xianyu almost had no chance to fight back. The wall, the ground and Ryder’s fists and clothes were all covered with Li Xianyu’s blood.
On the other hand, the exchange between Smith and Tongtong was also intensifying.
Smith said, “Don’t be afraid.”
Tongtong said, “Bad guy, I’m going to get Big Boss to beat y’all up.”
Smith said, “I’m trying to help you.”
Tongtong said, “I curse you to go out and get hit by a car. When you drink water, you will have something in the gaps of your teeth.”
The lolita cried pitifully, garnering much sympathy.
Li Xianyu was beaten to death while complaining in his heart, you are a meme. Don’t you know that you have to say the opposite to curse someone, hurry up and bless him.
Finally, Smith let go of Tongtong, as the lolita ran pitter-patter to the direction of the revolving restaurant with her short legs. Smith followed her, and he felt that they had taught Li Xianyu a lesson sufficiently. It was time to call someone to deal with the pervert who molested the young girl.
Ryder’s fingers were as if a sword, as they poked at Li Xianyu’s throat. The latter blocked the blow with his palm, as his palm was instantly punctured, Li Xianyu’s maiden war can only be described as bloody. Only demon descendants who had super strong vitality or self-recovery ability could choose this combat method.
An opportunity!
Under the heavy blows, Li Xianyu’s eyes brightened and he grabbed Ryder’s arm again. Qi flowed into his core and with a pfft, phlegm in his throat he had tried to cultivate surged out.
Take that, spitting phlegm as sword!
The spit of phlegm was blocked by Ryder. He looked at the phlegm on his arm and his face turned as dark as a pig’s liver.
Is he a goddamn child? Fight by spitting?
Li Xianyu was speechless.
This trick was still not well practiced enough.
The young man, who came from a demon descendants clan of the United States, was so enraged that he lunged at Li Xianyu, his fingers clawed at him. Li Xianyu’s palm was almost cut open entirely. Knowing that Li Xianyu’s ability was self-healing, Ryder was merciless.
For the first time, Li Xianyu shrieked in agony, and beads of sweat rolled off his forehead.
“Accept a just trial.” Ryder wanted to karate-chop at the back of Li Xianyu’s neck and end the battle.
At that moment, Li Xianyu suddenly raised his head and spat at him again.
The saliva surged like electricity, as it roared in the air, causing friction. Ryder was caught off guard that he had no time to avoid it. So he had to retract his move and block it with his palm.
This spit that condensed all of Li Xianyu’s qi, shot through the air barrier protecting Ryder’s palm, and was nailed into the palm. Ryder reeled backwards in pain and looked ferocious.
Right now! Li Xianyu bounced up, his muscles twisted and he lunged at Ryder. His back crashed into Ryder’s chest.
The two fell to the ground together, Li Xianyu got up, and Ryder, whose sternum was shattered, failed to get up. Ryder spat out a mouthful of blood, his expression in grave pain.
Metal Mountain Lean was one of King Kong’s most powerful skills and the tuition fees he paid to Li Xianyu, his life mentor.
Metal Mountain Lean relied on special skills to converge one’s strength and required excellent control over one’s muscles, which determined that its practice was a very painful thing. Beginners had to keep hitting the wall with their back and the side of their back, and it took ten years for ordinary people to develop it effectively.
Li Xianyu practiced for three days, and was only a newbie. However, with the ruthlessness of inflicting 800 HP of damage to himself, he could inflict 1000HP of damage to his opponents. This allowed him to utilise the skill, akin to 30% of King Kong’s power.
As soon as Li Xianyu lunged, he cracked his own shoulder blade.
“No way!” Ryder’s eyes widened in shock and pain and it was difficult for him to accept his failure.
He had fought this fellow for so long and failed to one-hit kill him but he was one-hit killed.
Li Xianyu spit out a mouthful of blood and sneered, “No way? I’m afraid you don’t know my power.”
He leaned down and punched Ryder, causing him to faint.
On the other side, Tongtong burst into the revolving restaurant. Tears swam in her eyes, but when she saw the demon descendants in the hall, she started bawling. It was as if a child who was bullied who saw her parents, and was trying her best to look pitiful.
The demon descendants in the restaurant looked over.
“Tongtong, what’s wrong?”
“Who bullied you? Uncle will teach that person a lesson.”
“Who dares to bully our Tongtong?”
Lolita was the youngest demon descendant of the company, and was cute and polite. Before Li Xianyu appeared, she was the group’s favorite.
Now the company’s favorite has been replaced by Li Xianyu.
Lolita ignored them, and her goal was very clear. She ran to Lightning King, clinging to the “bear’s” thigh. “The guy with a big penis is getting beaten up.”
She pointed to the members of the Association of Superpowered Beings present and cried, “He’s getting beaten up by their men. Uncle Lightning King, hurry up and save him.”
