At Terry ‘Ted’ Cotton’s orders, the thugs would charge at Frank and cut him into pieces!
Still, Ted was narrowing his eyes at the immeasurably arrogant man, feeling just a hint of wariness.
Could he be a member of some important family or the apprentice of one of the South Sea Sects?
“You have balls, kid,” he said. “Where are you from?”
“Nowhere. I’m just Frank Lawrence, head of Lanecorp’s health and security department,” Frank replied confidently.
Ted actually did a double take.
Lanecorp? As in the company?
And the head of Lanecorp’s health and security department…
It actually took Ted a while to come to a realization, though he felt humiliated when he understood what Frank was saying.
Head of Lanecorp’s health and security department?! That just meant he was some glorified security guard!
And a security guard had the balls to threaten him?!
Incensed, Ted bellowed while pointing at Frank right then, “Go! Break every bone in his body! Spare that woman-I will have her warm my bed tonight!” His order sent the thugs around him into a frenzy, and they all charged toward Frank with a battlecry.
“What, are you underestimating me now?”
Frank scowled as he strode in front of Helen. Well, you were the ones who made the first move, so don’t blame me for this… I’m sending you parasites packing right this instant!”
“Just try, kid!” Ted actually laughed at his face. “Still boasting when you’re a dead man-cut his mouth into pieces, boys!” “Sure thing, Ted!”
Helen was left flustered as she watched the sea of thugs surge toward them-could Frank handle so many of them?!
However, the answer was obviously yes.
With a bulging burst of pure vigor Frank that swirled in a spiral around his arm, he bellowed as he launched a punch to unleash a cyclone!
The ensuing windstorm left the
entire block screaming shrilly like a banshee, stopping the oncoming thugs in their tracks. The thugs that were directly in front of Frank were the unluckiest as they were sent flying into the air like weightless leaves, screaming.
Boom!
Soon, the horrific gale brought down the already dilapidated buildings around them, leaving everything in ruins in an instant!
“Huh…?” Ted was dumbstruck, unaware of his snot trickling down to his chin.
He was absolutely bewildered by Frank’s terrible punch-was it really possible for a man to bring down every building around him with a punch?
Even if the projects were in disrepair and almost collapsing, they were talking about a man’s single punch!
Still, it quickly dawned on Ted that Frank was a martial artist… and a legendary one at that!
Moreover, he had heard that martial artists above Ascendant rank could bend the world to their will with their pure vigor!
With that in mind, he dropped to his
knees at Frank’s feet. Then, ignoring his men’s looks of shock, he kowtowed to Frank even as he trembled, pleading, “I-I’m so sorry, sir. I’ve really belittled you… Please just let us go. We will fuck off right now…”
