The Prisoner Who Came Back a King
Chapter 18 – Who do you think you are to negotiate terms with me?
As a local of Liancheng, Qingqing naturally knew the notorious figure her bestie mentioned, someone feared by everyone in Liancheng.
Her bestie had quite an unusual background; her father was a figure comparable to the likes of Liu Sandao, so she was naturally familiar with both of them.
Hearing this, Qingqing felt even more anxious, but a glance at the elder standing behind them gave her some reassurance.
At this moment, Liu Sandao's subordinate, known as Xiaosan, had already stepped into the ring, facing off against a burly, muscular fighter.
"Liu Sandao, your subordinate is not bad, but it's a pity," Xie Haisheng remarked, looking at Xiaosan as if he were a dead man.
"Let's see the result," Liu Sandao replied with a slight smile.
While they spoke, the two in the ring had already started fighting.
The Southeast Asian fighter, though strong and powerful, moved slowly, and each of his attacks was dodged by the buzz-cut Xiaosan.
Relying on his agile movements, Xiaosan left his opponent helpless, with only brute strength but no way to use it.
Seizing a few openings, Xiaosan even landed a few punches on his opponent.
At this moment, a young man walked in unnoticed, as everyone's attention was focused on the ring.
The newcomer was Ye Feng, and seeing the scene, he frowned.
The underground boxing arena was the darkest of places, where a death or two was nothing.
Scanning the surroundings, he only heard the noisy cheers and didn't see Luo Yan.
He directly dialed the previous number, and once connected, he said coldly, "I'm at the boxing arena."
In a lounge of the arena, Qiangzi took the phone outside and whispered to Xie Haisheng, "Boss, that kid has arrived."
"He actually dared to come?" Xie Haisheng said with some surprise, then continued, "Go bring him here."
Qiangzi nodded, went to the door, and immediately spotted Ye Feng, chuckling, "You're Ye Feng?"
"Our boss wants you upstairs."
With that, he turned to lead the way, not taking Ye Feng seriously at all.
Just a young kid, nothing to worry about.
In the past, those tough guys in Liancheng who messed with them eventually begged for mercy.
Ye Feng followed Qiangzi and directly faced Xie Haisheng, speaking coldly, "Where's my person?"
Xie Haisheng sized up Ye Feng, who was lean and looked somewhat scholarly, not like someone who could fight.
He was a bit disappointed, not expecting that such a person could beat Zhou Hai like that.
He initially thought Ye Feng had some skills, luring him here to use Luo Yan as leverage to make him fight in the boxing match.
But with such a build, he'd be knocked out with one punch, easily crushed.
"Bring the person out!" Xie Haisheng waved his hand.
Qiangzi turned and headed to the room where Luo Yan was held.
Soon, Qiangzi, along with Zhou Hai and a few young men, brought Luo Yan out.
Seeing Luo Yan unharmed, Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let her go."
Xie Haisheng sneered, "Let her go? You beat my people, and you want me to let her go?"
At this moment, Zhou Hai, gaining confidence, pointed at Ye Feng and said, "Boss, don't let this kid go, kill him."
On the side, Liu Sandao watched this scene with disdain and mocked, "Xie Haisheng, kidnapping a woman, isn't that beneath you?"
Xie Haisheng nonchalantly replied, "Beneath what? This kid beat my people, how can I mix in Liancheng without teaching him a lesson?"
This scene caught Qingqing's attention, and she murmured, "Why is it him?"
The woman next to her pointed at Ye Feng and asked softly, "Qingqing, do you know that person?"
Qingqing shook her head.
"I saw him once at school, he seems like an old senior of mine, but it shouldn't be him."
The beautiful and fierce-looking woman said, "What a pity!"
Qingqing asked puzzled, "Xiaolan, what's a pity?"
Qingqing had never interacted with people from the underground world, unaware of its brutality.
But the woman named Xiaolan was different; her father was the biggest boss in Liancheng, so she knew that offending these people wouldn't end well.
"One look and you can tell he offended Xie Haisheng, that guy is ruthless, who can survive offending him?"
"Liu Sandao still has some principles, but Xie Haisheng is different, killing someone is like squashing an ant for him."
These words made Qingqing's heart skip a beat, and she silently watched the situation unfold, her heart in suspense.
Liu Sandao clearly knew Xie Haisheng well, and after mocking him, he said no more, even though they were sworn enemies.
But now wasn't the time to tear things apart, and besides, he wasn't a good person either, he'd seen such things many times.
Xie Haisheng ignored Liu Sandao and Zhou Hai, instead, he looked at Ye Feng with amusement, "Go down and have a good fight with my boxer, if you survive, I can let her go."
In Xie Haisheng's eyes, Ye Feng was just an insignificant figure, he was sure Ye Feng couldn't survive against the Southeast Asian fighter.
Even if he did, he wouldn't let him go easily.
At least, he wanted to toy with him.
His gaze swept over Luo Yan, filled with fervor, clearly seeing her as a virgin, how could Xie Haisheng let such a good opportunity slip?
Ye Feng noticed the lewdness in his eyes, raised an eyebrow, and said sternly, "Do you think you're worthy of negotiating with me?"
Despite the surrounding noise, Ye Feng's words were loud and clear, reaching Xie Haisheng's ears without missing a word.
Hearing this, Xie Haisheng's face instantly darkened, it was a blatant slap to his face.
Especially in front of Liu Sandao, how could he save face in the future?
He was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily, looking at Ye Feng as if he were a dead man.
Ye Feng's words surprised Liu Sandao, not expecting this seemingly gentle person to have such courage.
But unfortunately, it seemed he wouldn't leave here alive today.
Zhou Hai was the most pleased, knowing Xie Haisheng's temperament well, Ye Feng might have had a sliver of hope, but now it seemed he was doomed.
Even the girl named Xiaolan in the distance shook her head repeatedly, whispering, "Qingqing, your senior probably won't leave here alive!"
Hearing this, Qingqing's face turned pale, then she asked, "Xiaolan, is there any way to help him?"
Xiaolan shook her head, "Not even me, even if my dad came, Xie Haisheng wouldn't give face."
Xie Haisheng's expression gradually revealed a hint of killing intent, but Ye Feng remained unfazed.
This little scene, what was it?
Back then, facing those powerful foreign forces, didn't he kill without hesitation?
Ye Feng not only showed no fear but even smiled, "Since you like boxing so much, I'll spar with you."
With that, he swiftly grabbed Xie Haisheng's collar, lifting him like a chick and tossing him into the air, then kicked him towards the ring.
Xie Haisheng flew like a kite, soaring over ten meters before crashing onto the ring with a thud.
The two fighters in the ring stopped in shock, staring dumbfounded at Xie Haisheng who had fallen from the sky.
The sudden turn of events left the entire arena in an uproar!
