Chapter 10 Beat Up and Throw Out

"Master, please drive to Jinyuan Scrap Station!"

Over the years, the scraps Lu Ning picked up had always been sold to Jinyuan Scrap Station. He was very familiar with the terrain there.

"Okay!"

The taxi driver nodded.

Ten minutes later, they arrived at the Jinyuan Scrap Station.

Lu Ning got out of the car and walked unhurriedly towards the wasteland behind the scrap station.

Squeak...

The Toyota also came to a stop.

A man towering nearly one meter ninety, with a gleaming bald head tattooed with a descending tiger, obviously a brutal thug, snickered and strode behind Lu Ning.

Upon entering the wasteland, Big Baldy said with an echoing voice, "Kid, you sure are sensible!"

"Oh? How so?"

Lu Ning turned around, smiling faintly as he looked at Big Baldy and asked.

"This place is so secluded, you can't even see a hair on a person's head. If I kill you here and bury you in a hole, it would save me a lot of trouble!"

Big Baldy said with a smile.

"Are you sure that you can definitely kill me?"

Lu Ning gave the other man a look. He was already very formidable among ordinary people.

If a normal person was targeted by him, they would definitely feel their legs go weak, or even wet themselves.

"Haha... Before I returned to the country, I fought in underground boxing in Southeast Asia for more than ten years. Guys like you with skinny arms and legs, I've killed at least eighty, if not a hundred."

Big Baldy laughed out loud as if he heard a joke.

"Hehe, no wonder you have such a strong killing intent, it comes from fighting in underground boxing. How about this, from now on you follow me!"

Lu Ning said with interest.

Big Baldy was a good fighter; taking him on as a henchman would be convenient.

"What? Follow you? Hahaha... Are you scared out of your wits?"

Big Baldy laughed even harder.

"Is that so?"

Lu Ning's figure blurred, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air like a ghost, and in the blink of an eye, he was right in front of Big Baldy.

He grabbed his throat with one hand and lifted Big Baldy's two-hundred-pound body off the ground.

"You... You're a Martial Artist?"

Big Baldy's face turned beet red as he pummeled Lu Ning's arm, to no effect like he was barely tickling him.

"You don't need to know that much. It's better to obediently be my dog than for me to twist your neck right now!"

Lu Ning slightly tightened his grip, and Big Baldy's eyes rolled back.

"Big brother... let's talk it out, there's... there's room for discussion..."

Big Baldy raised his hands in submission.

"Snap..."

"Gasp..."

Once Lu Ning let go, Big Baldy dropped to the ground, gasping for fresh air with his mouth wide open.

The way he looked at Lu Ning now held a hint more of awe.

"Got a phone on you? Let me use it first."

Lu Ning didn't worry about Big Baldy reneging, extending his hand towards him.

"A phone, yeah, I have it!"

Big Baldy hurriedly handed his phone over to Lu Ning with both hands.

"Yunyun, Uncle Tang has woken up. Yeah, I've got something to take care of now; I'll come over later."

After dialing Tang Yun's number, Lu Ning said a few short words and crushed the phone.

He didn't want to bring any trouble to the Tang Family because of his own affairs.

"By the way, what's your name?"

Lu Ning clapped his hands and looked at Big Baldy.

"Heh heh, friends on the streets call me Black King Kong."

Big Baldy forced a smile, uglier than crying, on his face.

"The streets? Are you a boss yourself, or do you work for someone else?"

Lu Ning asked again.

"I have an older brother named Lei Fengyun. Wu City's largest underground force, Fengyun Hall, was founded by him."

Black King Kong dared not conceal any information and answered honestly.

Over the years, he had encountered many skilled martial artists. Without a doubt, Lu Ning was the strongest, bar none.

"Oh... Take me to meet him."

Lu Ning said thoughtfully.

He knew that if he wanted to avenge his sect, he definitely needed a power base of his own.

Gathering supporters one by one was simply too slow.

The fastest way was to take control of an already established force.

This tactic, akin to getting something for nothing, was often used in the business world as well—taking someone else's wool over bare hands!

"Well... okay then!"

Black King Kong nodded his head. He was well aware that he had no right to refuse Lu Ning.

"Lead the way!"

Once they were in the car,

Lu Ning sat in the passenger seat and glanced at Black King Kong, asking indifferently, "Who sent you?"

"Err... big brother, can I not say it? You're fine anyway, aren't you?"

Considering that Li Biao and he had grown up together like brothers, Black King Kong did not want to betray him.

"Humph... never mind if you don't say it. I can probably guess!"

Lu Ning said in a tone that was neither cold nor warm.

This matter was most likely not unrelated to Lin Zhengdong.

However, Lu Ning did not take it to heart.

After all, aside from being an annoyance, Lin Zhengdong couldn't cause any substantial harm to him.

For the time being, he needed to keep as low a profile as possible.

The perpetrator who annihilated his sect did not even care about the secret manuals, antiques, or paintings in the secret room, which indicated that their power was so immense it blotted out the sky.

If he drew too much attention to himself and attracted them, it would be nothing but a wasted life.

He had to quietly build up his power in the shadows, and only when he was fully ready could he avenge the dozens of wronged souls of the Five Poisons Sect!

An hour later.

In the most luxurious VIP room of Fengyun Hotel,

Lu Ning looked at Lei Fengyun, who had a swollen nose and face, and said indifferently, "Do you remember what I told you? Announce to the public that we're from the same hometown, and that's why you ordered Black King Kong to spare me."

"Understood, understood!"

Lei Fengyun nodded eagerly as if he were pecking at rice.

What a joke, he and dozens of his elite fighters hadn't been able to land a single blow on this young man.

Even if he spoke in a language from Mars that he didn't understand, he had to make sense of it somehow.

Besides, it was only a matter of helping him hide his identity.

"By the way, is there anyone in Wu City more formidable than you?"

Lu Ning asked after a moment's thought.

"There is. Those on the streets respect him as 'Mr. Long', but this man is very mysterious, often elusive like a dragon showing its head but not its tail. He doesn't have his own force, nor a fixed turf.

However, nobody dares to provoke him. Even if gangs have big disputes, as long as he speaks up, he can mediate successfully!"

Lei Fengyun said promptly.

"Oh? Mr. Long? Seems quite impressive! Alright, let's leave it at that for now. If you get any information on this person, notify me. I'd like to meet him!"

Having just taken over Fengyun Hall tonight, Lu Ning knew it was unrealistic to bite off more than he could chew at once.

"Of course, I will keep an eye on Mr. Long's whereabouts!"

Lei Fengyun nodded.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

Black King Kong pushed the door open, his expression somewhat odd: "Mr. Lu, big brother, Lin Zhengdong is in the lobby and wants to meet!"

"You go out first!"

Lei Fengyun waved his hand, and once Black King Kong had closed the door behind him, he asked respectfully, "Mr. Lu, what would you like to do about it?"

"Oh... Young Master Lin, huh! Just beat him up and throw him out!"

Lu Ning said thoughtfully with a hint of amusement.
