A Bloody Battle

When he heard that, his expression shifted to extreme surprise and disbelief. Staring at Louis's cold expression, he now realized something.

"You... You bastard... You deceived me—"

Slashhhh—

Louis grabbed the katana held by the triad and swiftly decapitated him, cutting him off before he could finish his words.

Brukkk—

His body then fell to the asphalt, leaving a thick puddle of blood beneath him. The rain still falling dampened his form, as he gazed slightly upwards at the darkening sky. Louis murmured softly, "Ahhh... So this is what it feels like to kill someone...?"

As they witnessed the murder, the triads immediately boiled with rage, gripping their weapons tightly. Then, another man wielding a katana emerged from the crowd with red eyes and commanded all the triads present, "Bastard!!!! Kill that man and avenge Xiao Mao!!"

Instantly, hundreds of people surged forward towards Louis in frenzy!

"Kill that bastard, kill him!!"

"Elder Mao, I will avenge your death!"

"Arrrrgghhhhhh, damn it!!"

As Louis saw the large crowd and heard their shouts, he remained unfazed, only grinning thinly.

Grin….

Taking a deep breath and entering combat mode, Louis's gaze sharpened as he assumed a stance ready for full-on assault.

When the triads were just five meters away, Louis shot towards them with speed.

Raising his sword horizontally, he parried a dagger hurtling towards his head and then swung his sword in the same direction, delivering a scything slash aimed at the triad's neck, completely severing it.

Slashhh!

Croshhhhh—

"One..." Louis uttered coldly.

Glancing to his side, Louis saw several attacks aimed at his waist and head. Shifting his hips slightly to the left and ducking his head, he managed to evade them.

He certainly wouldn't stand idly by; seizing the opportunity, he slashed at one of the triad's hands, cutting off another head, then pivoted his body clockwise and cleaved through several people nearby, killing more than seven in one strike.

As the triad wielding a katana witnessed this, his expression darkened, and he ordered others to surround the man.

"Kill, kill, kill him—!!!!"

The sound of heavy rain mixed with thunder combined with the darkening sky created a tense atmosphere. Coupled with the scattered blood on the street and the sounds of clanging and screaming, the place became horrific, where dozens of people had quickly perished.

Louis killed them all mercilessly, paying no heed to anything but killing and killing.

"Hyaaaa—!!"

Jleb!

Avoid—

Croshhhh—!!

Swingg—

Srashhhh—!!!

[Your right side will be slashed from above! Three steps to your left, someone wants to stab a knife into your back!]

Following every notification from the System, Louis moved swiftly and executed attack maneuvers with great speed.

[... Super Stamina duration will expire in 30 seconds!]

Though Louis appeared unconcerned, he still pondered it somewhat. '30 seconds, huhhh...?'

Without much thought, Louis slammed his sword with a scything attack and then ran towards the triad who had been giving orders to the others.

"…!!!"

The triad was slightly taken aback by Louis's sudden attack, but he managed to parry it and push him away.

Trinkk—

However, without much thought, Louis lunged towards the man and positioned his sword inverted parallel to the right side of his head, delivering a swift strike that almost caught him off guard.

Trankkk—!!

"Urghhh…"

Trying to push back against the heavy blow, he succeeded. But what he didn't expect was Louis spinning his body in accordance with the previous inertia and executing a reverse attack in a spiral manner, catching the triad off guard, and his neck was subsequently slashed by the katana.

Scrashhhh—

"A-Ackkk…."

Brukkkkk—

Without hesitation, Louis quickly grabbed a key from the man's pocket while fending off attackers and then ran to one of the private cars nearby, quickly opening its door and getting into the driver's seat.

[Hurry! You have only 3 seconds left!]

'Stay calm…."

Entering the car quickly and inserting the key as fast as possible, he finally started the engine and pressed the gas pedal as hard as he could, crashing into the dozen people trying to block his path.

Vrooommmmm-!!!!

"Argghhhhh—"

"He's escaping, he's escaping!! Quickly intercept him!!"

"It's impossible, the car has already sped off!!"

[Super Stamina duration has expired! Your body will weaken for 1 hour!]

Suddenly, the tense muscles throughout his body stiffened within seconds.

"Urghhhhh…. The side effects are too dreadful if I stay in the battlefield any longer…" Now, his expression relaxed slightly as he somewhat held his head, which was still bleeding and throbbing from the earlier forced movements.

Louis quickly sped back to Beijing, knowing they wouldn't dare pursue him once he was in the city. Plus, the direction of this car's route also pointed there, so he couldn't turn back to go to his mansion.

Gazing at the dark clouds producing heavy rain, Louis could only sigh wearily. "Sighhh… Will all of this continue like this in the future…?"

[Most likely. So, prepare yourself!]

"Hahhhh…. It's troublesome…" He continued his journey calmly.

And thus, Louis's journey filled with action and challenges began.
