Chapter 1050: One Against Two
Can you take a beating or not!
These four words instantly stirred up a heated discussion among the crowd.
Of course, it wasn’t that everyone thought Liu Zixuan was super domineering, but that they thought he was a total idiot!
Wanting to fight two on one was already basically asking to get beaten up, and now he even said something like that—wasn’t he just begging them to go all out on him!
For a moment, everyone sighed; whatever faint sympathy they’d had vanished, replaced by sheer amusement.
The two men sneered, "You’re asking if we can take a beating? With that scrawny little body of yours, you think you can take our punches?"
Liu Zixuan smiled slightly. "Come on, let me see just how ’strong’ you guys really are."
The two men exchanged a glance. "Dealing with this kind of trash, one of us is enough. I’ll do it."
"Don’t. You’d better both come at once, I’m in a hurry." Liu Zixuan waved his hand and said with a smile.
In the eyes of the crowd, if "Can you take a beating or not" was Liu Zixuan trying to show off, then this "in a hurry" was arrogance cranked up to the max.
Just now they’d thought he was a hotheaded newbie; now they were sure he was just a moron!
The Xiangyang Group—lots of people here knew the name. That was the newly risen, monstrously huge power in the Qian Nan region. In terms of money and strength, there were hardly any people in Qian Nan who dared compare!
Their hired guards watching this ground fissure were definitely not some random nobodies! Look at those two men—both burly and strong—while Liu Zixuan, aside from being a bit good-looking, didn’t seem to have any other redeeming features!
Of course, if what they were thinking was known to Liu Zixuan, he’d definitely flip them the bird and curse, "The thing I hate most in this life is people saying I’m handsome!"
Hearing him, a vicious glint flashed across both men’s faces.
"Since you’re so eager to die, we brothers will oblige you!"
As they spoke, the two moved at the same time, their hammer-like fists closing in on Liu Zixuan from left and right.
Bang!
Liu Zixuan slightly lowered his head and easily dodged, but the two men’s fists smashed straight into each other.
The pain from the collision shot through their whole bodies in an instant; both men frowned and let out a low groan.
Liu Zixuan gave a playful grin and flashed a "yeah" gesture toward Luo Xi and the beautiful Master in the crowd.
The two beauties smiled faintly, while the onlookers all showed expressions of disdain.
Was this guy planning to deal with those two men with cheap tricks like that? Way too weak, right!
Seeing their first strike fail, the two men wised up. This time they used both fists and feet, launching a combined assault on Liu Zixuan.
"If it were Tiger’s punch, I might at least frown a little, but you guys..."
Watching their attacks coming in, Liu Zixuan’s lips curled up. His figure flickered like a ghost; this time he didn’t dodge, instead stepping straight in to meet them.
What a joke—his Emperor Realm Second Heaven cultivation was sealed, but even at his worst he was still at the Profound Realm Peak, okay!
Even if he was technically still a "normal person," with his old foundation, these two were more than manageable.
In moments, Liu Zixuan met one man’s punch. To outsiders it looked like he just gave a light tug, but the man himself knew that Liu Zixuan’s strength was something he couldn’t even begin to touch. He felt all the weight vanish from his body and stumbled forward uncontrollably.
Before he even hit the ground, Liu Zixuan had already pivoted over, his fist slamming straight into the man’s cheek. Spit, blood, and teeth all flew out of his mouth.
The other man hadn’t even processed what was happening when Liu Zixuan’s right foot was already in front of his face.
His pupils shrank; just as he tried to retreat, a size-42 shoe print slammed onto his face and then whipped away. A clear shoe mark was left on his cheek, and his whole body was sent flying, crashing down onto the ground a few meters away with a thud. Dust shot up; who knew what his face looked like now!
Liu Zixuan clapped his hands and stylishly lit a cigarette.
Right then, as the dust rose, the crowd of onlookers all stared with eyes wide open.
Because what they were seeing was completely different from what they’d imagined.
In their minds, Liu Zixuan should have been knocked down by the two men, falling to the ground, getting stomped and punched, then crying and begging on his knees for mercy, while the two beauties he’d brought would be taken away by those men.
He’d be lying there covered in dirt like some pathetic stray dog.
But now, not only did that scene fail to happen, everything had completely flipped.
The ones lying on the ground covered in dirt weren’t Liu Zixuan at all, but those two burly, muscular men.
The ones crying and begging for mercy weren’t Liu Zixuan either; it was still those two men after they hit the ground.
Liu Zixuan leisurely blew out a cloud of smoke, and under the crowd’s shocked, dumbfounded gazes, he took the jade-like hands of the two great beauties and directly jumped down into the ground fissure.
"Was that just now a movie shoot?"
"Holy shit, that was real kung fu, man—seriously badass!"
"Wait, why does that guy look so familiar to me, like he’s..." The man slapped his thigh. "Right, yesterday’s press conference—Dream Rain the big star announced her boyfriend, and I’m pretty sure it was him!"
"Did I see that wrong?"
...
All kinds of chatter rose up in the crowd, and soon a few men in sharp business suits walked over from one side.
Seeing them, the two men on the ground hurriedly ran over. "President Xiang, someone else just broke in!"
"What’s going on? Didn’t I assign you to block this place?" This man was clearly the Xiangyang Group boss they’d mentioned.
The man clutched his badly swollen face. "That guy was really strong, he dropped us in just a couple of moves."
"Useless trash, the lot of you!" President Xiang cursed. "We’re staying here. I want to see exactly who has the balls to lay hands on my people!"
...
Inside the ground-fissure space.
From the outside it looked only about two meters wide, but the deeper you went, the more different it became.
The first ten or so meters inside were very narrow, like a naturally formed crack, but as they went further in, it started to look exactly like a proper tomb passageway.
Liu Zixuan glanced around at the layout. "This should really be the Seven-Star Tomb; most likely, as usual, it’s a tomb within a tomb."
"Someone’s already gone ahead." The beautiful Master frowned slightly and pointed at the ashes of burned charcoal on one side. "And not just one group."
"Judging from those people outside, most of the ones who came in are probably Martial Artists. Of course, those so-called tomb-research experts might be here too." Liu Zixuan chuckled. This wasn’t hard to guess. The Xiangyang Group was a private company; once they sealed this place off, they’d definitely send people in.
And anyone they sent would definitely be some kind of authority, not just random nobodies.
"Zixuan, let’s hurry in too, or someone might snatch the prize first!" Luo Xi said.
"Alright!" Liu Zixuan nodded and led the two beauties at a run down the tomb passage.
