Unrivaled Soldier in the City

Chapter 653: Chapter 653: The People of the Dong Family

The next moment, Lin Kuang’s palm clamped around the wrist of the young man before him. The youth’s expression changed instantly. He hadn’t expected Lin Kuang to be so formidable, grabbing his wrist in a mere instant. This was a terrible development for him. However, before the youth could make a move, Lin Kuang acted.

A powerful force surged from Lin Kuang’s palm, sending the young man flying backward. The youth’s face flushed red.

PFFT!

He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his flushed face instantly turning deathly pale. At that moment, the middle-aged man also moved, placing a hand on the youth’s back to steady and catch him.

"Young man, quite impressive strength. I admire it," Dong Wanchun said, looking at Lin Kuang.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang’s brow furrowed. "From the ancient martial arts Dong Family?" he asked coolly.

At his words, a flicker of surprise crossed Dong Wanchun’s face, seemingly taken aback that Lin Kuang knew of the Dong Family.

"Correct, the Dong Family. This is my son, Dong Chongyi," Dong Wanchun introduced with a smile.

Lin Kuang nodded. "And what brings Mr. Dong here?"

"I brought my son to see Miss Liu Shiyu. I arranged a childhood engagement with my old friend Liu back in the day, so naturally, we’ve come to pay a visit," Dong Wanchun said with a smile.

"Oh? A childhood engagement? I’m sorry, but Shiyu is my woman now. I’m afraid this engagement is off," Lin Kuang stated evenly, looking directly at Dong Wanchun.

Before Dong Wanchun could say a word, Dong Chongyi exploded with rage, his eyes glinting with murderous intent. "Father, kill him! Kill him! He dared to touch my woman! Kill him!" Dong Chongyi roared.

"Your woman? It was just a childhood engagement. What gives you the right to call her yours? Don’t get so arrogant, boy. This isn’t the Dong Family’s estate!" Lin Kuang narrowed his eyes, his tone becoming frigid.

"Young man, watch your tone," Dong Chongyi said coolly, a hint of murderous intent flickering in his eyes. "Though this may not be our home, the Dong Family is not to be trifled with."

"Heh, have I trifled with the Dong Family? It was your son who was being arrogant. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have bothered with him. Besides, as I said, Liu Shiyu is my woman. You are not welcome here. Please leave," Lin Kuang said dismissively, standing with his hands clasped behind his back. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

"That’s not happening. We’ve come all this way, and we will certainly see Shiyu. Are you going to turn us away with a single sentence? Where would that leave the Dong Family’s honor?" Dong Wanchun’s voice remained calm, but the killing intent in his eyes grew thicker.

"In that case, you want to fight? Fine. Let me see what the Dong Family is made of," Lin Kuang said with a laugh.

"Young man, don’t be so proud. Your strength may be decent, but there’s always someone better out there. You’re getting ahead of yourself," Dong Wanchun said in a lecturing tone.

Lin Kuang shook his head. "It’s not your place to tell me if I’m arrogant. You wanted to teach me a lesson, didn’t you? Then make your move. I’d like to see what gives you the right."

He stood with his hands behind his back, his voice calm yet domineering. The way he stood there projected an imposing aura, like a single man guarding a pass against ten thousand foes.

Ignited by Lin Kuang’s words, Dong Wanchun’s face finally turned cold. "Kid, you really don’t know your place. Very well. Today, let me, your senior, teach you that there’s always someone better!"

"Is that so? Then get on with it. Why all the babbling? Are you scared?" Lin Kuang taunted.

Dong Wanchun’s fury surged. The young man before him was insufferably arrogant, and he was losing his patience.

"Fine, fine! It has been many years since I’ve met a young man this conceited. Kid, you have thoroughly enraged me. Now, you will bear my fury!" Dong Wanchun declared.

"So much pointless talk. Are you planning to fight me with your words?" Lin Kuang jeered again.

"Boy, you’re courting death!"

Completely incensed, Dong Wanchun’s figure blurred as he shot forward, thrusting both palms out. Sensing the power in Dong Wanchun’s attack, Lin Kuang’s expression grew solemn. This old man is a truly formidable opponent. With only the Five Gates open, I’m no match for him.

Therefore, he simultaneously opened the Scenic Gate, Jingmen, and the Gate of Death. ƒrēewebnovel.com

With all Eight Gates open, the power inside Lin Kuang surged to a terrifying level. The True Qi in his body churned like mighty rivers.

"Let’s see just how strong you really are!" Lin Kuang snorted, striking out with both his palms to meet Dong Wanchun’s head-on.

BOOM!

A deafening crash erupted. Dong Wanchun felt as if his hands had struck a great mountain; he couldn’t budge Lin Kuang in the slightest. Realizing this, Dong Wanchun’s expression changed dramatically, his eyes filling with shock and horror. I sensed his strength was decent, but only decent. Yet, now that they had clashed, he realized this young man’s strength wasn’t just on par with his own—it was even slightly superior. This was a fact Dong Wanchun found impossible to accept.

At the same time, Lin Kuang gauged Dong Wanchun’s strength. The man is powerful, but still a step below me. He couldn’t help but think of Britney. If it weren’t for the wonderful gift she gave me before she left, I would be no match for Dong Wanchun right now. A wave of gratitude for her washed over him.

"Your strength isn’t all that impressive, old man!"

With a sneer, Lin Kuang’s True Qi roiled and his immense power exploded outward. In an instant, Dong Wanchun was blasted backward, his face flushing red.

Of course, given Dong Wanchun’s strength, Lin Kuang couldn’t make him cough up blood with a single palm strike. The redness in Dong Wanchun’s face was not from exertion, but from pure shame and rage.

He had just proclaimed he would teach Lin Kuang a lesson, yet in the blink of an eye, he was the one who had been thrown back. Who was teaching whom? The answer was painfully obvious. This was why his face burned with humiliation.

Dong Chongyi was dumbstruck, staring blankly at his father. In his eyes, his father was an absolute powerhouse. Yet he had been repelled by a single palm from Lin Kuang. Dong Chongyi’s gaze filled with disbelief. He couldn’t accept that his mighty father had been sent reeling by the very man he looked down on.
