Chapter 27: Waves Subside, Waves Rise Again!

"Why did it turn out like this?" Zou Chao looked at the disappearing figure of Scar-faced Brother in agony, while his subordinates exchanged glances, unsure of what to do.

Zou Chao never expected that by getting involved in Cao Yuting's affairs, he would offend Scar-faced Brother, his powerful backer. His emotions were in turmoil.

"Liu Hui, why is Scar-faced Brother so afraid of you?" Zou Chao rushed to Liu Hui, his voice filled with excitement. If he didn't solve this question, he wouldn't be able to sleep or eat.

Liu Hui replied calmly, "It's nothing. One night, Scar-faced Brother and a few of his lackeys were about to bully Sufei, so I stepped in and taught him a lesson. I suppose he realized he couldn't beat me."

Upon hearing Liu Hui's words, the students suddenly understood. No wonder Scar-faced Brother was terrified of Liu Hui, avoiding him like a snake or scorpion.

It turns out Liu Hui's martial arts skills were so formidable that even Scar-faced Brother suffered greatly at his hands.

Zou Chao's face turned pale. Based on Liu Hui's achievements, provoking him would be seeking death.

Zou Chao's heart churned like turbulent waves. He gritted his teeth and knelt down in front of Liu Hui, catching him off guard. "Liu Hui, I admit I'm no match for you today. Please spare Cao Yuting for my sake."

Zou Chao's sudden kneeling surprised Liu Hui. "I've already said that Cao Yuting's matter has nothing to do with me. When did I say I wanted to deal with her?"

"Hou Liangsheng told me. He said that after you demonstrated your strength on the playground, you threatened Yuting, saying you would make her suffer. It was because of this scare that she developed a high fever and had to be hospitalized. The doctor said that if this mental burden isn't resolved, her condition will be difficult to improve!" Zou Chao explained while kneeling, revealing that it was Hou Liangsheng, a despicable person, who had been stirring up trouble.

Liu Hui's face turned cold. He hadn't expected that Hou Liangsheng would persistently slander him. Seeing Zou Chao kneeling before him, Liu Hui suddenly felt sorry for him.

This person with genuine emotions and righteousness had been manipulated by Hou Liangsheng.

"A man should stand tall. You should get up. As for Cao Yuting's matter, I have never said I would take care of her. You can go to the hospital and tell her yourself. If she hasn't recovered by then, there's nothing I can do!" Although Liu Hui admired Zou Chao's infatuation, he had no intention of apologizing to Cao Yuting.

Zou Chao excitedly got up from the ground and bowed to Liu Hui, ready to rush to the hospital.

"Ah! I never expected Zou Chao, who seemed like a bully, to have such deep feelings."

"This Cao Yuting is so fortunate to have someone who loves her so deeply. It must be the result of good karma from past lives."

"I heard that Cao Yuting is more interested in wealth and status. Zou Chao is merely infatuated with her from one side."

The students praised Zou Chao's infatuation, completely changing their opinion of him. Some students who were familiar with Cao Yuting felt sorry for Zou Chao, thinking that Cao Yuting wasn't worthy of him.

In the place where Hou Liangsheng and Li Fangxue stood, Li Fangxue looked at Hou Liangsheng in shock. "Liangsheng, did you really say those things to Zou Chao?"

Hou Liangsheng felt bitter in his heart. He hadn't expected Zou Chao to publicly reveal his words. But at this moment, he couldn't defend himself; he could only try his best to maintain the image he held in Li Fangxue's eyes. "Fangxue, I did this because I was afraid Zou Chao wouldn't take action. I did it for Yuting's sake. You have to believe me!"

Li Fangxue sighed inwardly. Although she didn't believe Hou Liangsheng's words, she couldn't bring herself to expose his lies or leave him.

She wanted to seize his heart while she had the chance. With a forced smile on her face, Li Fangxue said, "Well, I believe you. I will explain it to Yuting."

Sure enough, Hou Liangsheng was touched by her words and expressed his gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Fangxue!"

"Liu Hui is right here. Don't let him escape!" Just as Liu Hui was about to leave the corner, five or six young men dressed in white training suits suddenly appeared and surrounded him.

Seeing the agile figures of the young men in front of him, Liu Hui's heart shivered.

These people seemed to have martial arts training, far more formidable than the street thugs. Liu Hui shook his head and secretly thought to himself, "It seems that I won't have peace today."

"I can't believe it! Who exactly is this Liu Hui? Why are so many people looking for trouble with him?"

"These people should be disciples of our Chu City's Yangwei Martial Arts Hall. I heard that people from Yangwei Martial Arts Hall can take on several opponents at once. They're very powerful!"

"It looks like Liu Hui is in trouble now. Each of these people has martial arts training, and none of them are weaker than him!"

The onlookers, who had already started packing up and preparing to disperse when Zou Chao left, were once again attracted by the appearance of these young men in white training suits.

"Hehe! So, you're Liu Hui! You have quite the audacity, relying on your few days of martial arts training to snatch a woman from Wu Bo! Wu Bo ordered us to make sure you end up in the hospital for a few months. Don't blame us for being too ruthless!" The leader of the group sneered, looking at Liu Hui with an unfriendly expression.

It turned out that these people were brought by Wu Bo. Liu Hui narrowed his eyes.

Wu Bo was truly troublesome, actually bringing people from the martial arts hall to deal with him. If this had been a few days ago, these people might have caused him some trouble.

But now that Liu Hui had reached the Body Refining Realm, he could easily take down these people with a wave of his hand.

Liu Hui remained calm, his tone extremely plain. "Since you're here, there's no need for idle talk. Let's not waste time. Come at me together!"

"Good kid! You really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Today, I'll teach you on behalf of your master what is the proper etiquette in the martial world!" As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the group launched an attack with his Tiger Fist, aiming directly at Liu Hui's chest. Faintly, it seemed like a tiger's roar echoed from his body.

Seeing their senior brother take action, the others didn't want to be outdone and each displayed their proudest fist techniques, besieging Liu Hui.

"How shameless! What kind of warriors are they, ganging up on one person?"

"But this Wu Bo is truly ruthless. After Liu Hui defeated the basketball team last time, he quickly brought people from Yangwei Martial Arts Hall to deal with him."

"They're so fierce! Why do I feel like that senior brother has turned into a ferocious tiger with its jaws wide open!"

The senior brother from Yangwei Martial Arts Hall had encountered a wild Siberian tiger in the mountains while practicing his Tiger Fist, and after observing it for over a

month in the forest, he had mastered the essence of the Tiger Fist. Seeing that Liu Hui still showed no reaction, a hint of delight flashed across the senior brother's face.

In the distance, Wu Bo looked at Liu Hui with a sinister expression, a cold smile on his face.

"Liu Hui, since you know martial arts, I brought a few people who also know martial arts to deal with you. Let's see how you handle it this time."
