Li Nan couldn't understand why this man in front of him was taking so long, and he became impatient. "There's no time!"
As he spoke, Li Nan intended to crouch down and jump through the shattered tempered glass window. Just as he moved, a cold blade suddenly pressed against his neck.
The chill from the blade was unmistakable; it was a bloodied knife. Li Nan grinned and said, "What's up, brother? Don't you want me to jump out?"
The blood-soaked man glared at him, and a few words escaped his lips, "Don't you know who I am?"
Li Nan forced a smile. "At this point, does it matter who you are? As the saying goes, when interests are at stake, even brothers need to clarify things. Fine, I'll let you jump first!"
Li Nan stepped back slightly and said to the person behind him, "Is it okay now?"
However, even as Li Nan raised his hands to show he meant no harm, the blade remained firmly against his neck.
Anger flashed across Li Nan's face. "I'm helping you out here; let's put this aside for now. I'm letting you go first to escape. If you don't move, I won't either. Are you really going to repay my kindness with malice?"
In Li Nan's understanding, this inexplicably encountered person might be strange, but in the apocalypse, who didn't have some psychological issues? So he didn't take it too seriously. However, the cleaver tightly gripped in the man's hand made Li Nan wary and reluctant to make any sudden moves.
Li Nan turned to face the bloodied man and raised his voice, "What exactly do you want?"
The bloodied man had an imposing face and muscular arms; he was likely either an athlete or a bodybuilder.
Li Nan scrutinized the man: he wore rubber boots and polyester sports pants, with a tight-fitting sports shirt that was stained with blood, making it impossible to discern his background.
The man held the cleaver firmly and showed no intention of backing down as he spoke slowly and deliberately, "You really don't know who I am?"
Li Nan felt that something was off about this person's tone. Could it be that he knew him?
Li Nan extended two fingers to block the blade of the Cleaver and said, "If you want to make a move now, it might not be worth the cost!"
However, the man showed no hesitation. He kicked Li Nan with a powerful blow, causing Li Nan to hunch over and shout, "Who the hell are you?"
The man shouted back, "It doesn't matter if you don't know who I am; today, you'll become a ghost without justice!"
As he spoke, the man channeled his strength downward, wielding a mountain-cutting long knife with immense force. He swung it down in a horizontal cut, reminiscent of Chenxiang splitting Mount Hua. But Li Nan was not at Mount Hua, and the man was not Chenxiang. In an instant, Li Nan dodged by using the force from the man's kick to evade.
With a whoosh, the man's Broad Blade Mountain Cutter sliced through empty air. In that moment, Li Nan crouched low and unleashed two punches.
These punches were delivered with considerable force, striking directly at the man's knees!
Even though the man was robust, he couldn't withstand Li Nan's blow and immediately hunched over, collapsing to the ground—likely with both leg bones broken!
While Li Nan was entangled with this man, several Big-Headed Flies came rushing in, their wings barely intact.
Seeing the urgent situation, Li Nan could no longer afford to tangle with this man. He delivered a powerful kick that sent the fallen man flying out from among the shards of glass. Unfortunately, Li Nan miscalculated his aim; the big man crashed through an intact piece of glass, sending shards flying everywhere!
The Broad Blade Mountain Cutter fell to the ground. Li Nan kicked it up into his hand and chose not to engage with the few remaining Big-Headed Flies, instead jumping out.
Several fiery Big-Headed Flies charged forward as flames roared behind them, thick smoke billowing and quickly engulfing those Big-Headed Flies!
After flying out of the window, Li Nan lowered his body, aiming for the second floor, which was only about three to four meters high—there was no challenge at all!
As Li Nan leaped out, the large window behind him shattered with a loud crash, and the flames surged upward, spreading rapidly!
Once Li Nan landed safely, he rolled over and crouched down to avoid the flying glass shards. Fortunately, luck was on his side, and he sustained no injuries!
Just as Li Nan touched down, three figures quickly approached from a short distance away—two adults and one child—none other than Fatty and the others!
Fatty, carrying A Fei on his back, saw Li Nan standing still on the ground and muttered under his breath, "He can't be dead, right?"
Lin Hai cursed quietly, "Don't jinx it!"
Half-crouching on the ground, Li Nan confirmed there was no danger behind him before suddenly standing up. At that moment, Fatty's face lit up with joy. "I told you, Brother Nan's life is tough; he's second only to me, Fatty!"
Seeing Fatty and the others beside him, Li Nan laughed heartily and said, "I can't say my life is tough, but my vital parts are definitely tough!"
Fatty burst into laughter and then turned around to ask, "Brother Nan, who’s that person behind you? And why do you have an extra cleaver in your hand?"
Li Nan turned back to see a man lying on the ground covered in blood. He had been hit by the flying glass shards and was practically a porcupine with no good spots left on him.
Li Nan put away the cleaver in his hand and moved closer to the man, grabbing him by the collar and pulling him forward. He shouted to Fatty and the others, "Hurry up and leave this place; we can talk later!"
Fatty carried the severely injured A Fei while Lin Hai tried to pull Li Dapeng along. However, Li Dapeng dodged away. His small eyes were fixed straight ahead as if he had already made up his mind about their path forward and was ready to take charge for himself!
Lin Hai smiled faintly and did not bother with Li Dapeng, immediately shouldering the AK-47 and rushing forward.
Li Nan pulled at the man who was crawling on the ground, estimating that this guy had little life left in him. However, Li Nan was not worried about him dying right away; he wanted to get to the bottom of things and understand what grudges led to such a deadly attack.
Behind them, the building was engulfed in thick smoke, and it was certain that the group of Big-Headed Flies trapped inside had been completely wiped out.
Li Nan turned back to see the building engulfed in flames, with large letters on the glass curtain wall reading "BD International Pharmaceutical Company China Branch." Li Nan felt indifferent to this long name; the world had already ended, and even a once-great commercial empire would likely be obliterated by the state of affairs.
Dragging the half-dead body, Li Nan walked over to the outdoor café location from before. After confirming that the burning BD building would not harm his side, he let out a sigh and signaled everyone to pause.
Li Nan released his grip and tossed the half-dead man aside. Then he drew his cleaver and pressed it against the man's neck. "Tell me, why did you want to kill me?"
Fatty had no good feelings for the man who was now a porcupine of glass shards. Hearing from Li Nan about the man's previous misdeeds made him furious. He said to Li Nan, "Brother Nan, I'm best at dealing with people like this. Let me teach him a lesson!"
Li Nan waved his hand. "I just want to clarify this person's identity. Besides, I have serious doubts about his intentions!"
The man lying on the ground let out a gurgling sound as blood poured from his mouth. The glass shards embedded in his back were deeply lodged in flesh, and combined with Li Nan's kick earlier, even a wild bull could not withstand such torment.
The man gasped for air, but a lump was stuck in his throat, preventing him from breathing properly. Seeing this, Li Nan immediately thought it was bad news. "This is a symptom of internal bleeding; he could easily choke to death!" Although this man had previously tried to harm Li Nan, he did not want him to die just yet—there were still questions that needed answers!
Li Nan called Fatty over and then turned the man’s body upside down, pressing him against the ground. Next, Li Nan extended two fingers into the man's throat and felt that his airway was blocked by congealed blood. If it wasn't cleared out in time, he wouldn't last even a minute.
Li Nan cursed inwardly, "Damn it, I have to save someone who tried to kill me. It seems being a doctor is really not a good job!"
Li Nan realized that the internal bleeding was entirely caused by his own kick earlier. Although he hadn't used all his strength, it was enough to incapacitate an average person.
Li Nan drew a Feathered Arrow and used the sharp tip to cut open the chest cavity beneath the man's left shoulder blade, attempting to drain the congealed blood from within. After several cuts, he saw some effect, and after a harsh cough, the man seemed to breathe a little easier.
At this moment, Li Nan stopped his actions and pointed the arrow's tip at the man's eyeball, shouting, "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?"
The man's gaze, which had been quite dazed, became clearer. In his line of sight was a Feathered Arrow, and behind it stood a stern-looking man.
Seeing that the man remained silent, Li Nan thrust the Feathered Arrow forward, instantly piercing it into the man's left eye socket. A loud sound erupted as a mixture of black and white fluid sprayed out.
The man let out a loud cry in pain and was about to move when Fatty pressed his Submachine Gun against the other eye socket and said, "There are 81 ways to kill you. If you don't want to suffer, stop stalling!"
The man turned his remaining eye around, surveying his surroundings before spitting out a mouthful of blood. "Just make it quick. To the victor go the spoils; I have nothing more to say!"
At that moment, Fatty kicked the man hard, causing a small mirror to fall from him. Behind the mirror was a piece of paper with Liu Xiaoqing's image on it.
Fatty squinted at the small mirror and burst into laughter. "Damn, so you have this kind of hobby too? I'm impressed!"
