Liu Guanfeng bowed to the young man, saying, "Thank you very much for your kindness. However, as you can see, my hands are full right now, so I can't give you any money. How about this: I'll throw the quilt to you, and later I'll bring you the money. What do you think?"
The young man nodded, "Since you're so obedient, fine. Just throw the quilt over."
Liu Guanfeng looked down at the quilt in his hands and sneered. Then he called out to the Little Rascals outside, "I'm going to throw it, so make sure to catch it! If it falls on the ground and gets dirty, we won't be able to use it tonight." As he spoke, he exerted force with both hands, separating two streams of Chaotic Qi from the Dragon Pearl. When these two streams of Fighting Qi converged in his hands, they transformed into a powerful Fire Attribute Fighting Qi.
With a strong motion of his arms, Liu Guanfeng threw the quilt towards the young man as if tossing a handkerchief. The moment the quilt left his grasp, red Fighting Qi burst forth from his hands, enveloping the quilt entirely. At that moment, the quilt was ignited by the Fire Attribute Fighting Qi, and one could faintly see several silver lightning bolts dancing within the flames.
Originally, the Little Rascals had high hopes for tonight; they thought they would have a new quilt to cover themselves with and could extort a hundred gold coins while also visiting Red Moon Tower to have some fun with a girl. However, they never expected Liu Guanfeng would attack them. The Dong Family had changed significantly; with Dong Ning serving as a strategist for Ma Sanbao in Ma Weiwu General's residence and gaining Ma Weiwu's attention, they had become quite influential.
It could be said that Rain City was now dominated by the Dong Family alone. Even the city lord had to lower his stance when meeting Dong Renchuan, the head of the Dong Family. Although this young man was merely a small fry from the Dong Family's periphery, there is a saying: one must consider the owner when dealing with a dog. Since he had latched onto the big tree of the Dong Family, he had gained much more confidence. Many people who previously dared not provoke him were now avoiding him simply because he was associated with the Dong Family.
After nearly a year, this young man had developed an arrogant personality and gathered a group of Younger Brothers around him, feeling even more invincible. When he saw Liu Guanfeng today, although he noticed Liu Guanfeng's unusual attire, he didn't take it too seriously. He thought to himself that if this young man were truly from a wealthy family, he wouldn't be without bodyguards.
Moreover, he observed that Liu Guanfeng's skin was delicate and smooth, indicating that he was someone who lived in comfort. All these conditions seemed too perfect for him to consider any danger.
As this young man contemplated which beauty to visit at Red Moon Tower that night, he suddenly saw two fireballs heading straight for him. It was only then that he reacted and shouted, "Not good!" The two fireballs struck right in front of him.
Instinctively preparing to swat them aside with his hands, he felt an intense heat as soon as his hands made contact with one of the fireballs. Just as he was about to push it away, another sensation disrupted his plan—he felt numbness as soon as his hands touched the lightning energy within the quilt; it rendered both of his arms numb and unresponsive.
Thus, this young man watched helplessly as a quilt landed on his head while another covered the young man who had been flattering him all along. Due to habits formed over nearly a year, this flatterer always stayed close to him under the pretense of protecting his safety.
Finally succeeding in protecting his brother—both were now surrounded by flames—he saw both individuals struggling desperately but unable to shake off their quilts since their arms were completely numb. They could only jump around frantically while groaning in discomfort.
Watching this scene unfold before him, Liu Guanfeng felt quite satisfied. He looked towards the street and instructed his two mounts: "Big Black and XP, listen up! Your task is to keep an eye on these dozen or so boys in front of me; not one should escape. If anyone tries to run away, break their legs."
After giving his orders, Liu Guanfeng stood aside with his arms crossed, observing the two boys dancing frantically under their quilts. The other boys saw their leader engulfed in flames and immediately lost focus. They rushed forward to try and extinguish the flames on the quilts.
However, Liu Guanfeng's fire was not so easily extinguished; the quilts had ignited from within outward. Thus, their efforts were ineffective as both boys continued jumping under their fiery covers in a dance no one could comprehend.
Suddenly, a young boy appeared beside him, and Liu Guanfeng noticed that his hands had turned blue. He knew it was due to the Water Attribute, but Liu Guanfeng didn't rush; instead, he continued to watch the commotion. The boy grabbed the quilt from the head of another boy, and just as he was about to pull it away, a silver light struck his hands, causing him to faint with a cry.
Liu Guanfeng smiled as he observed the situation in the courtyard: "Little one, don't you know that water conducts electricity?"
At that moment, a more daring little guy stepped forward. This boy covered his hands with his clothes and pulled at the quilt again. Finally, he managed to yank it off the other boy's head. However, the rescuer was already on fire, prompting others to help extinguish the flames on him.
With everyone frantically assisting, both boys had their quilts completely pulled off. The flames were extinguished, but the pain remained. The boy who had been burned rolled on the ground, groaning in discomfort.
Liu Guanfeng then spoke up: "I must ask you, young sir, is this quilt warm?"
His words reminded the rolling boy, who gritted his teeth and stood up. Looking at his face, which had been scorched by fire, Liu Guanfeng instinctively touched his own face.
The injured boy gritted his teeth and said to Liu Guanfeng, "You little brat, are you looking for death? Brothers, beat this kid up for me! I'll reward whoever kills him with a hundred gold coins. Ouch~ Ouch~!" Before he could finish speaking, he cried out in pain again.
Hearing their leader's command, the group of boys charged at Liu Guanfeng with a roar. When the first boy reached Liu Guanfeng, he suddenly stepped forward and stood face-to-face with him. The boy was startled by Liu Guanfeng's action and unconsciously stopped in his tracks.
Seeing him halt, Liu Guanfeng threw a punch directly into the boy's abdomen. His fist glowed faintly with a yellowish light. The boy was knocked down by Liu Guanfeng's punch before his companions even realized what had happened. Liu Guanfeng's second punch landed squarely on the face of the second boy in line.
The second boy saw his companion suddenly crouch down for no apparent reason and felt a surge of joy; since he was just slightly slower than his friend, he thought he would be next in line for the gold coins. However, instead of coins, he received Liu Guanfeng's iron fist. As Liu Guanfeng knocked down the fastest runner with one punch, his second punch struck the next boy right in the face.
The second boy thought he had run into a wall; his head hit hard and stopped moving while his legs kept running forward. After Liu Guanfeng's fist connected with that boy's face, he thrust forward with another punch that sent the boy flying.
The boys behind him were caught off guard and were knocked down by their flying companion. Instantly, three or four more fell to the ground as chaos erupted among those remaining.
Taking advantage of the confusion, Liu Guanfeng charged into the crowd using sweeping kicks and powerful punches—his most straightforward and satisfying techniques. The strongest among those boys only possessed Junior Knight-level strength; even their full-force attacks barely caused him any discomfort. Thus, Liu Guanfeng faced each opponent head-on without dodging at all.
The thugs who rushed toward Liu Guanfeng for gold coins were no match for him; each one fell quickly under his blows. As cries of "Ouch!" and "Ah!" filled the air and then faded away, only Liu Guanfeng remained standing.
Outside in the courtyard were several boys who had been protecting their leader. Upon seeing Liu Guanfeng effortlessly knock everyone down, they panicked and abandoned their fallen leader to flee. Just after they took a few steps away, they heard sounds of struggle. Following Liu Guanfeng's orders, those lying in wait outside—XP and Little Black—quickly subdued all of those who had tried to escape.
It is not that Liu Guanfeng is heartless; rather, upon returning to Starfall Kingdom and seeing his former friends suffering such inhumane treatment, he has long harbored a deep hatred for the Dong Family. This is why he instructed XP and Little Black to take decisive action. Hearing a sound from afar, Liu Guanfeng slowly walked towards the boy who was still wailing on the ground.
When the boy saw Liu Guanfeng approaching and defeating all his subordinates, he forgot his pain and looked at Liu Guanfeng in astonishment, saying, "You... you... what are you going to do?"
Liu Guanfeng smiled slightly, "What do you think I'm going to do? I just want to collect that hundred gold coins from you."
Upon hearing this, the boy immediately knelt on the ground and repeatedly bowed his head to Liu Guanfeng, saying, "Please spare me, sir! I promise I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare!"
Seeing the boy before him, already burned beyond recognition by Fire and bleeding from his forehead due to his bows, Liu Guanfeng couldn't be bothered to argue further.
Liu Guanfeng pointed at the kneeling boy and said, "Listen carefully, kid. Don't think that just because you've latched onto the Dong Family's leg you can do whatever you want. I advise you to pay more attention to your words and actions; otherwise, one day you won't even know why you're dead."
"Yes, yes! I understand! I won't dare again!" The boy replied while continuing to bow.
Liu Guanfeng fixed him with a stern look and said, "Get lost!" After that, he turned and went back inside.
At that moment, Platinum Wen was crouched at the door watching. Seeing Liu Guanfeng easily defeat several Little Rascals who had been bullying him brought him a sense of relief.
Liu Guanfeng squatted down beside Platinum Wen and asked, "Jinwen, is there anything else you need to clean up here?"
Platinum Wen shook his head, "Look at this; there's nothing left to clean up."
Liu Guanfeng nodded, "Alright then, come with me."
