Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 2036 - 2099: A Bout
The next day, according to plan, Li Yifei was going to take several wives home, while the families of Liang Zicheng and Yi Long came to see them off. Just as everyone was about to leave, they saw a bunch of cars parked at the door, several of which were sports cars. It turned out Guo Qilin had been given a task early in the morning, hurriedly climbed out of bed, came to the villa, and prepared to challenge Li Yifei.
Seeing Li Yifei again, Guo Qilin still felt a tingling on his scalp. Why did this guy’s gaze feel so threatening, like a bloodthirsty wolf? Guo Qilin forced a smile, walked up to everyone, and said, "I’ve come today... to tell you something, but I’m just a messenger!"
"Speak," Li Yifei raised his chin.
Su Mengxin glanced at him indifferently, and Guo Qilin couldn’t help but swallow hard, his heart racing, not because of her beauty, but because... he was scared.
"It’s... it’s like this, my big brother, oh no, Gu Yapeng of the Gu Family asked me to pass on a few words to you." Guo Qilin’s voice grew louder as he spoke, seemingly gaining confidence when he thought of Gu Yapeng, not minding that he was borrowing strength from others.
Gu Yapeng? Li Yifei immediately recalled Gu Yandong, another unfortunate guy who pretended to be impressive and got beaten up by Li Yifei.
Su Mengxin shifted her gaze from the children to Guo Qilin, and softly explained, "Gu Yandong’s brother, same father, different mother. It’s said he learned martial arts from a Taoist priest as a child; he’s back now?"
"Yes, my big brother... oh, Gu Yapeng is back, and he’s in Haicheng. He asked me to tell you to release his people!" This was his first request.
"His people?" Li Yifei laughed and said, "Really thinks he’s something? Those people attempted to attack us; even if sent to the Public Security Bureau, they’d be sentenced."
"Well..." Guo Qilin hesitated, his excitement fading a bit, then continued, "He knows you won’t release them, so he asked me to tell you the second thing; he wants to have a fight with you. If you lose, release his people, and don’t meddle with Liang Zicheng and Yi Long’s affairs."
"Fight me?" Li Yifei pointed to himself, and Guo Qilin vigorously nodded, saying, "Yes, with you."
"Ha ha." Li Yifei waved his hand and said, "Go call him over."
Since there was a challenger, Li Yifei couldn’t refuse. After all, there was still some time before the flight, enough to settle a fight.
Now? Guo Qilin was stunned for a moment; Gu Yapeng hadn’t said it should be now, so he needed to report this. He turned to the car, pulled out his phone, and made a call.
Li Yifei looked back at Su Mengxin and the others. Liang Zicheng frowned, asked with concern, "Isn’t Wei Ziang behind this?"
"We’ll find out soon." Li Yifei said casually. Seeing the child had woken up and was energetic, Li Yifei added, "If he comes, we’ll go back to wait awhile, and have a fight in the yard. It’s better for them to give up; otherwise, they might still cause trouble for you."
"Is it okay? It’s not that I doubt your strength, but..." Yi Long asked worriedly.
"Haha, unless he brings his master, otherwise... he’s not worth worrying about." Li Yifei said confidently. This wasn’t arrogance; Li Yifei had this confidence; he rarely encountered many in the younger generation, even when facing experts like Murong Yuanqing. Though not confident in defeating them, he didn’t feel he’d lose much, let alone someone like Gu Yapeng.
Only then did the two feel at ease. Liang Wei and Yi Mei’er looked at Li Yifei with excited eyes. Originally, they were reluctant to see Li Yifei go home, but now they could see the heroic uncle take action—what more could they ask for?
The women of the Li family weren’t very worried either. Su Mengxin took the opportunity to send a message and quickly investigated Gu Yapeng’s information, handing it to Li Yifei.
Gu Yapeng, apprenticed to the Gu Lao Taoist, was discovered at three years old. After discussion with his family, he was taken by the Gu Lao Taoist to train in the mountains, only returning this year. Rumor has it he returned because the Gu Lao Taoist passed away; otherwise he would still be training. It’s said the Gu Lao Taoist set his return age at forty.
Character unknown, somewhat arrogant. After returning to the capital, he continuously challenged many experts, including elders of various families and renowned masters in the capital, reportedly undefeated. He’s considered a leader among the younger generation, and some have already compared him to other young talents across the nation. There are even rumors he might be stronger than Li Yifei.
The specifics of his training are unknown; in several fights, he either won by strength or by technique. Watching him fight, he’s both agile and aggressive, indeed a strong contender among the younger generation.
In just over a hundred words, all explained. Li Yifei glanced at the phone, then handed it back to Su Mengxin. Chu Xiaoyao took the phone, read it aloud, and those around heard. After reading, Chu Xiaoyao scoffed, saying, "What nonsense, speaking as if it’s real. My husband could beat those so-called masters out of their senses years ago."
Originally hearing how strong Gu Yapeng was, the two families were somewhat worried again. But hearing Chu Xiaoyao’s words, they chuckled, feeling relieved that there was still a gap.
Su Mengxin said, "Yifei, don’t underestimate him; no one knows if he gave his all in those fights. If he did, that’s fine. If he held back, we need to be cautious."
Li Yifei turned around, nodded, wiped the child’s cheek, and smiled, "Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Besides, with Shanshan backing me up, I don’t believe they can bring two Innate Experts over."
Xu Shanshan puffed out her chest and said somewhat proudly, "Exactly, and I’m here too. But brother-in-law, I think you should let me take action. If I really can’t handle it, it’s not too late for you to step in!"
Li Yifei laughed and said, "No."
"Why not?" Xu Shanshan immediately asked.
Li Yifei leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I don’t want him to touch you, not even a hand!"
Uh, Xu Shanshan’s cheeks flushed. This bad guy is actually jealous. Forget it, I won’t make a move, I’ll leave it to my husband. Xu Shanshan thought, turned in a circle, and generously said, "Alright then, you go ahead, it’s all the same anyway." 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎
The people from the Liang family and the Yi family were even less worried. In their eyes, someone like Xu Chao was already considered powerful, but both Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan could easily handle Xu Chao, a level of skill beyond their imagination.
They had confidence, so there was no need for the two families to worry too much.
However, Li Yifei was standing up for them, win or lose, they would not blame Li Yifei, after all, he could have completely stayed out of it, but he didn’t, the two families should be grateful.
After Guo Qilin finished the phone call and got confirmation from Gu Yapeng, he walked back and said to Li Yifei, "Gu Yapeng said you all should wait for a bit, he’s coming over now."
"Alright!" Li Yifei said calmly.
Twenty minutes later, several cars arrived. Li Yifei and others walked out of the villa. From the lead car got out a bald man, Su Mengxin then said, "This should be Gu Yandong."
Li Yifei nodded and then saw some familiar faces, namely Wei Ziang, He Zhenyu, and Chen Fangzhou. Besides Gu Yapeng, the other three were indeed familiar faces.
"It’s a small world, isn’t it?" Wei Ziang got out of the car and immediately saw Li Yifei, then noticed Su Mengxin, but she was not holding the child; instead, it was in the arms of another pretty young lady.
Li Yifei smiled while looking at Gu Yapeng, not even interested in looking at the other three. He didn’t care about them before, and now that he’s stronger, he certainly doesn’t. Gu Yapeng was also watching him, their gazes clashed in the air. Li Yifei secretly nodded: a decent opponent, indeed one of the strong amongst the younger generation.
Just like when meeting Satan, Li Yifei could sense that the other was a strong person, but how strong exactly would require a fight to determine.
Even among experts, the gap is significant.
When Chen Fangzhou and He Zhenyu saw Li Yifei, it was indeed like enemies meeting. Their eyes widened; it was the resentment of a stolen wife!
Li Yifei’s decision also affected them. Originally, they planned to wait until they had clarity before taking action, but unfortunately, Li Yifei wanted to fight now. Gu Yapeng agreed upon hearing this, leaving them no choice but to come. Now they could only hope Gu Yapeng would defeat Li Yifei, and once he did, these people would be at their mercy.
"I am Gu Yapeng!" Gu Yapeng strode to ten meters in front of Li Yifei and the others, stopped, and introduced himself. Then he looked at Li Yifei and said, "And you are Li Yifei?"
"Who else would I be?" Li Yifei took two steps forward, exuding an aura that blocked the other’s aura.
Gu Yapeng laughed, raised his hand and pointed at Li Yifei, saying, "Not bad, I hear people often talk about you after I came out from the mountains. You’re always a leading figure among the younger generation. Of course, I don’t believe these rankings unless you compete against me."
"I’ve never heard of you," Li Yifei replied indifferently.
Gu Yapeng’s eyes narrowed. He originally intended to display some grace in front of Su Mengxin, but Li Yifei’s dismissive attitude annoyed him. After a few seconds, Gu Yapeng laughed out loud, his voice echoing. Chu Xiaoyao didn’t care about that and directly interrupted, saying, "Do you have no manners? Why are you laughing so loudly in the morning? Don’t you know some people are still sleeping?"
Uh? Gu Yapeng abruptly stopped laughing, eyeing Chu Xiaoyao with some hostility. He didn’t know that his half-brother had previously encountered Chu Xiaoyao’s sharp tongue and got beaten because of it. Gu Yapeng stared at Chu Xiaoyao, but she was completely unafraid, even making a provocative expression.
