Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

80: Chapter 79 I give you a chance to apologize!

80: Chapter 79 I give you a chance to apologize!

“Village chief, is that title so impressive?”

Li Chen raised his eyebrows, asking with a playful smile.

Just then, a burst of angry shouting came from the direction of the village entrance.

“Who’s so brazen, daring to run wild in our Cloud Mist Village!”

Following that, a series of spine-chilling dog barks ensued.

“Woof, woof, woof…”

Upon hearing this commotion, the villagers scattered like avoiding the plague.

Because they all knew, it was Village Chief Huang Zhigao, the local tyrant, leading his family’s Tibetan Mastiff.

Lan Huanxi, worried for Li Chen, quickly stepped forward, timidly reminding him, “Brother Li Chen, he’s our village chief.

That’s their Tibetan Mastiff, it’s very fierce!”

Li Chen scoffed dismissively, “Just a dead dog, what’s there to fear?”

“Dad, save me, save me…”

Seeing his father arriving, Huang Mingquan was like a drowning person clutching at the last straw, shouting hysterically.

Huang Zhigao, looking at his son who had been beaten into a bloody mess, almost didn’t recognize his own progeny.

“Mingquan, how did you get beaten up like this?”

Having finished speaking, Huang Zhigao’s eyes spat flames as he fiercely glared at Li Chen, shouting, “You outsider, you dare to wreak havoc in our Cloud Mist Village; do you really think I, Huang Zhigao, am a paper tiger?”

Li Chen shrugged his shoulders and said coldly, “Paper tiger?

Haha, you sure like to flatter yourself.

With that bear look of yours, just another dead dog!”

Huang Zhigao was a local bully and also quite slick, with quite good relationships with the leaders of the township police station and even the district sub-bureau.

Thus, in this entire area, he, Huang Zhigao, was the one whose word was law.

Now, seeing a young man who looked no more than a high school student daring to talk back and even insult him, calling him a dead dog, a fiery rage immediately flared in his heart.

“Youngster, it seems you need to be taught a lesson to realize how high the sky is and how thick the earth is?”

As he spoke, he flicked the leash in his hand and commanded, “General, get him, bite him to death!”

“Woof, woof, woof…”

The Tibetan Mastiff bared its teeth, showing off its shiny fangs, and lunged at Li Chen.

Seeing the vicious dog pounce, Lan Huanxi turned pale with fright.

“Get behind me!”

Li Chen grabbed Lan Huanxi’s arm, took a big step forward, and confronted the fierce dog head-on.

“Beast, you dare to defy the might of heaven?”

Faced with Li Chen’s overwhelming presence, the Tibetan Mastiff seemed to go mad, turning its head and charging towards Huang Mingquan instead.

“Crack!”

Huang Mingquan’s arm bone was brutally bitten and shattered by the Tibetan Mastiff, a bloody mess.

“Ah, Dad, save me, save me…”

Huang Zhigao hadn’t expected the Tibetan Mastiff to suddenly go crazy and bite his own son; horrified, he quickly rushed over.

“General, you damned beast, you bit the wrong person, that’s my son…”

“Ah!”

Before Huang Zhigao’s words could even finish, the Tibetan Mastiff lunged at his thigh, ferociously taking a huge bite, tearing off a chunk of flesh, leaving a bloody sight with white bones glaringly visible.

Huang Zhigao and his son typically used the Tibetan Mastiff to intimidate passersby and had done plenty of nefarious deeds.

Now, they were reaping what they had sown.

The watching villagers, while feeling apprehensive, also felt a strange thrill, almost ready to burst into applause.

This truly was:

Heaven’s wrath can be survived,

But one’s own wrongdoing is inescapable!

The young men from the Huang family, upon witnessing such an incredible scene, were stunned momentarily, then picked up wooden sticks, hoes, and the like, greeting the Tibetan Mastiff with their tools.

Suddenly, the scene unfolded into a chaotic ‘dog-eat-dog’ melee, which was quite the spectacle.

Though the Tibetan Mastiff was fierce, it was no match for these young men armed with clubs.

In no time at all, it was beaten to its last breath, laying on the ground, bleeding profusely.

However, under the ferocious bites of the Tibetan mastiffs, the Huang Family members were also terribly injured.

Especially father and son, Huang Zhigao—their bodies bitten until flesh and blood were indistinguishable.

Wasn’t that far beyond merely ‘tragic’?

Li Chen gave Huang Zhigao a cold smile, stretched out his hand to point at the sky, then pointed to the ground, and said, “Village Chief Huang, now you can tell me how high the sky is and how thick the earth is, right?”

Huang Zhigao looked up at Li Chen, intending to speak, but before a word could be uttered, anger took over and a mouthful of fresh blood was spat out.

At this moment:

Two police cars with red and yellow flashing lights sped toward the scene.

Five or six police officers got out of the cars!

Seeing the newcomers, a middle-aged woman adorned in gold and silver jewelry quickly ran over, crying and wailing.

“Director Zhang, you’re finally here.

Some villains committed violence, causing serious injuries to my husband and son!”

Director Zhang, whose real name is Zhang Shengmin, is the police chief of City Gate Town.

He often drank with Huang Zhigao, calling each other as close as brothers, so close they could share a pair of pants.

Just earlier, Director Zhang received a report of a violent act in Cloud Mist Village, even stating that his cash cow, Huang Zhigao, had been injured.

This was like digging right above the Emperor’s head—an absolute intolerable act!

Although psychologically prepared, knowing in advance that the culprit was a martial artist, the bloody scene that met his eyes still startled him.

The yard was a complete mess, with blood and flesh scattered all about, a sight more gruesome than a car accident scene.

From far away, one could smell the pungent scent of blood.

Zhang Shengmin glared at Li Chen and questioned angrily, “You young man, at such a young age yet so cruel-hearted and with such brutal methods that it’s hair-raising, do you have no respect for the law at all?”

Li Chen shrugged his shoulders with a cold smile and asked, “Officer, what have I done?

Their own Tibetan mastiff has rabies and bit them.

What does that have to do with me?”

“If you don’t believe me, you can ask the villagers present?”

At Li Chen’s words, Zhang Shengmin paused and scanned the surrounding people with an inquiring look.

Huang Zhigao’s wife, pointing at Li Chen’s nose, screeched, “Director Zhang, this kid is slandering us.

Our General has always been vaccinated against rabies; how could it possibly have rabies?”

“This kid practices demon art.

Surely our General was scared by him, that’s why it went and bit Old Huang and my son.

Director Zhang, you must arrest him to seek justice for our family!”

“Sister-in-law, don’t be agitated.

I, Zhang Shengmin, promise that I will give you justice!”

Zhang Shengmin wiped the spit from his face, waved at his subordinates, and ordered, “Take him into custody, bring him back to the station!”

Li Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, “I haven’t committed a crime, on what grounds are you arresting me?”

Zhang Shengmin, seeing a high school student daring to defy his authority, was furious.

“I call the shots here.

If I say you’ve committed a crime, then you’ve committed a crime.

Take him away!”

Li Chen grinned at him and said, “It seems Director Zhang is very imposing!”

Zhang Shengmin crossed his arms over his chest, his face full of arrogance, and hummed in self-satisfaction.

Looking at Zhang Shengmin’s punchable face, Li Chen smiled indifferently and said, “Director Zhang, I am a magnanimous person, giving you a chance to apologize!”

What?

Give me a chance to apologize?

Zhang Shengmin looked at Li Chen like he’s seeing a fool and asked exaggeratedly, “Kid, is there something wrong with my ears, or is there something wrong with your brain, to actually spout nonsense and give me a chance to apologize?”

Li Chen shrugged and said, “I gave you the chance, it’s your fault for not taking it, don’t blame me!”

Afterward, he took out his phone and called Liann Ruifeng.

“Mr.

Liann, the public security situation here at Cloud Mist Mountain Villa is terrible, and I am very angry.

You can handle it!”

Before the echoes of his voice faded, he had already hung up the call.

On the other end of the phone, Liann Ruifeng was utterly bewildered!

The public security at Cloud Mist Mountain Villa is terrible?

What on earth does that mean?

Liann Ruifeng, sensing the dissatisfaction in Li Chen’s voice, dared not delay and immediately called Tang Zhengyi, the head of the city bureau, to inquire about the situation.

Tang Zhengyi was also unclear about the situation, responding, “I’ll ask for you now, okay?”

After hanging up the call, he dialed the Baiyun District branch office.

The chief of the Baiyun District branch office was equally bewildered and hastily found Director Zhang Shengmin’s number for City Gate Town’s police station, and called him…
