Chapter 223: Chapter 95: Challenging the Boxing King, Avenging My Mother (Part 4)

Li Yucheng was born into a noble family from the Southern Sect of martial arts. He dropped out of high school due to circumstances and embarked on a gray path of illegality.

Back then, he worked for a mob boss to gain the boss’s favor and served as a hitman for about five or six years.

He honed his skills during those years.

The mob boss he worked for wasn’t just a small-time figure; he was genuinely a hero among villains.

And the hitmen he faced weren’t ordinary thugs either; they were all brave and fierce elite enforcers. Some were retired special forces soldiers and mercenary warriors, as well as heirs of martial arts noble families.

Li Yucheng once signed a life-and-death contract with the Underground Beast Fighting Arena.

He managed to walk out alive from the arena, break free from its grasp, build a real estate company on his own, and become a new tycoon in Yujiang City.

He himself is a legend.

Tonight, many of the spectators on site are bigwigs from Yujiang City. They mostly deduced the relationship between Li Yucheng and Boxing King Ah Cheng. They also know that Li Yucheng has suffered severe investment losses recently; otherwise, he wouldn’t be fighting again at his age.

But they can’t figure out why Lady S wanted to challenge Li Yucheng in the most brutal form of combat—a death match.

Do they have an intense vendetta?

Or does Lady S aspire to become the new legendary Boxing King of the Underground Beast Fighting Arena?

The truth is unknown not just to outsiders, but even Li Yucheng himself is clueless.

Facing Xu Xingguang, Li Yucheng spoke as if catching up with an old friend: "If I remember correctly, this should be my 1546th battle in the Underground Beast Fighting Arena. And you, little girl?"

How many battles has Xu Xingguang been through?

An overwhelming number, countless.

Shaking her head, Xu Xingguang said, "I’m not interested in how glorious your past was. I care about only one thing." Xu Xingguang curled an icy smile at Li Yucheng and said, "When someone like you, full of wounds, falls into the Yujiang River, do you also feel fear?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Upon hearing this, Li Yucheng frowned.

They weren’t wearing earpieces, and the audience’s shouting was too loud for anyone to overhear their conversation.

Li Yucheng asked Xu Xingguang in confusion, "What deep enmity lies between us?"

He couldn’t believe that a young girl without a blood feud with him would dare to risk everything to challenge him at the Underground Beast Fighting Arena.

Enmity?

Xu Xingguang shook her head and replied, "The humiliation of a mother is an unending hatred!"

Upon hearing this, Li Yucheng was somewhat stunned.

Humiliation of a mother?

He’s humiliated and bullied countless women, and he couldn’t immediately guess who Xu Xingguang’s mother was.

Seeing Li Yucheng seemingly not remembering, Xu Xingguang’s gaze landed on the menacing scar on his chest as she asked, "Do you still remember Mo Yinshu, the one who stabbed your chest with a beer bottle?"

Li Yucheng’s eyes suddenly widened.

"Mo Yinshu, you’re... Xu Xingguang!" In an instant, Li Yucheng understood everything, and his expression turned incredulous.

"So, Xiahou Zuiyue is secretly loyal to you!" Li Yucheng wasn’t naive, realizing that the South City Longhu Shuilan project was clearly a pit Xiahou Zuiyue deliberately set for him.

Li Yucheng thought he had no grudge against Xiahou Zuiyue, so Xiahou Zuiyue shouldn’t be plotting against him, leaving him perplexed as to why Xiahou Zuiyue targeted him.

When Xu Zeqing approached him and revealed that the person backing Xiahou Zuiyue was Xu Xingguang, Li Yucheng refused to believe it.

Who is Xu Xingguang?

She’s just a young girl in her early twenties, only known for writing stories.

She had no power or influence; what ability did she have to make Xiahou Zuiyue loyal to her?

Even if she were Xiahou Zuiyue’s lover, Xiahou Zuiyue wouldn’t go to such lengths for her.

But after witnessing Xu Xingguang’s combat prowess, Li Yucheng realized Xu Zeqing’s speculation was correct.

The mysterious figure behind Xiahou Zuiyue, advising and scheming, was Xu Xingguang.

Xu Xingguang was far from being just a fragile young girl who only knew how to write novels!

She could kill!

And she kills without hesitation.

"Xu Xingguang, having the qualification to challenge me to a life-and-death match shows you have some skills." Li Yucheng touched the scar on his chest, as if reminiscing.

He laughed and said, "Your mother and I were high school classmates. She was a very captivating girl. I admired her and confessed my feelings, but she said my hands were dirty and dismissed me."
