Chapter 50: Invulnerable Body

The voices of Ye Fei and his companions were not loud, the conversation was brief, and the guests were all engrossed in watching the glamorous dance on stage. Consequently, nobody paid them any attention. It was this lack of notice that made the sudden appearance of a person falling onto the stage even more surprising.

People who came to such places for entertainment were naturally not wealthy or powerful individuals. They were mostly working-class people in the vicinity. When everyone saw who the person falling onto the stage in a very embarrassing manner was, the previously noisy hall fell silent. Not a single person laughed; even the manager who fell onto the stage didn't dare to look up. Some of the more timid ones had already quietly moved towards the exit.

While the guests remained quiet, the security personnel in the establishment were not as calm. They were called security, but in reality, they were the thugs of the Black Wolf Gang. Seeing their immediate superior being struck, although somewhat intimidated by Ye Fei's imposing figure, they still gathered around him to show their loyalty.

The manager who was thrown out by Ye Fei was skilled and ranked among the top few in the gang. After being thrown, he only felt a moment of dizziness and quickly regained his senses. Seeing his subordinates surrounding Ye Fei, he hurriedly shouted, "Stop!" From the ease with which Ye Fei had thrown him out, he knew that Ye Fei was not someone to be trifled with. However, since Ye Fei seemed inexperienced in the underworld, he thought it might be better to deceive him into their gang's basement. With more people on their side and weapons at their disposal, they could easily deal with him as they pleased.

Initially hesitant to approach, the thugs were spurred on by their leader's command. As they relaxed a bit, they stopped in their tracks. The manager jumped down from the stage and walked up to Ye Fei, saying, "You want to see our boss, right? Follow me."

From the manager's shifting gaze, Ye Fei could easily discern his intentions. However, being confident in his own abilities, Ye Fei chuckled lightly and said, "Lead the way." His tone was akin to reprimanding a servant.

Although a glint of menace flashed in the manager's eyes, he refrained from saying much. He obediently led Ye Fei to a small room adjacent to the hall. He pressed something on the wall, causing it to slowly split open, revealing an elevator leading underground.

Without hesitation, Ye Fei followed the manager into the elevator. The descent proceeded without any incidents. However, as soon as they stepped out of the elevator, Ye Fei squinted his eyes. He noticed several dark gun barrels pointed at him.

The commotion Ye Fei caused in the hall had naturally reached the boss of the Black Wolf Gang. However, instead of immediately coming out, the boss analyzed the situation. He realized that this burly man was much more formidable than anyone in his gang.

With his intimidating physique and likely impressive strength, taking action might result in the gang's defeat. Thus, he decided to use persuasion to deal with him.

Seeing Ye Fei's puzzled expression, the boss of the Black Wolf Gang smirked smugly. After signaling his armed subordinates to watch the man closely, he holstered his gun and asked, "Brother, I wonder why you've come to cause trouble for our Black Wolf Gang?"

Although said with a smile, the boss's tone was far from friendly.

After all, Ye Fei had already provoked him, and even someone with a good temper would get angry in such a situation, let alone the already irritable boss of the Black Wolf Gang.

Ye Fei was indeed taken aback when he saw those guns, but his surprise wasn't about being faced with guns. Since they had asked him to come down, using guns was expected. It was just that he hadn't anticipated them making a move so quickly; not a single word had been spoken before they aimed at him.

Staring at those dark gun barrels, Ye Fei couldn't help but feel a flicker of excitement. Why not take this opportunity to test the limits of this body's strength? With his current speed and reaction time, these pieces in front of him couldn't possibly hit him, and where he wanted them to hit was just a thought away.

After making up his mind, Ye Fei fixed his gaze on the leader of the Black Wolf Gang and asked, "Tell me, who have you been in contact with recently, or rather, who are you working for now?"

The leader of the Black Wolf Gang was momentarily stunned. Indeed, a mysterious person had contacted him before, offering a large sum of money to carry out some minor disruptions in the business of the Liu family, with whom the Black Wolf Gang had close ties.

Initially wary of provoking the Liu family, the tasks assigned by the mysterious individual were relatively harmless, merely causing disturbances at the Liu family's construction sites. The money offered was more than the Black Wolf Gang's annual income, so he had agreed.

Unexpectedly, just as this arrangement had commenced, instead of being approached by the Liu family, a hitherto unheard-of but incredibly powerful man had appeared.

All these thoughts flashed through the mind of the leader of the Black Wolf Gang. His face remained impassive, wearing a slightly mocking expression as he looked at Ye Fei and said, "Is it necessary for me to tell you who I work for? Moreover, on what basis do you have to question me now?"

"Just based on this!" Ye Fei suddenly reached out like lightning, before anyone could react, he had already seized the leader of the Black Wolf Gang, lifting him off the ground with one hand.

With a grin, he said, "If you don't speak, I'll make you!" And just like he had thrown the manager earlier, he tossed the leader of the Black Wolf Gang out, but this time with more force, sending him flying five meters away, crashing heavily into the wall with a loud "bang."

"Ah!" The leader of the Black Wolf Gang yelled in pain, feeling like his bones were about to shatter. Naturally, he harbored extreme resentment towards Ye Fei. When he could catch his breath slightly, he shouted loudly, "What are you waiting for? Shoot, kill this bastard!"

The gunmen were all stunned by Ye Fei's incredible strength. Only after their leader's command did they react, hastily raising their guns and firing wildly at Ye Fei. In an instant, gunshots echoed in the elevator area.

With a slight dodge, Ye Fei moved over three meters away. As he evaded most of the bullets, he extended his forearm and caught one of them.

Feeling a slight numbness and a mild stinging sensation, he looked at his exposed forearm, seeing a faint red mark where the bullet had hit.

Gently rubbing the red mark with his finger, he found that it quickly disappeared, as if he hadn't been hit by a bullet at all.

Ye Fei couldn't help but burst into laughter. He hadn't even used the Barbarian skill to enhance his defense yet, and his body's strength had already reached such a level. Hmm, he remembered there was a skill called Natural Resistance in his abilities.

If he had time, he could give it a try. If that worked as well, wouldn't he become invincible, impervious to blades and bullets?

At that moment, the gunmen began their second round of shooting, but Ye Fei didn't dodge this time. Instead, he strode forward boldly, facing the hail of bullets. The gunmen were so frightened that they could barely hold their guns, let alone shoot, and hastily retreated.
