Chapter 52: Chapter 0052: So Strong_1
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yan Li wiped the fresh blood from his mouth; he hadn’t expected Ye Xiong to be so powerful, easily more than twice as strong as the instructors back in his soldier days.
Since when did Jiangnan City have such an incredible person?
“Don’t think you can escape from my grasp; your only chance of survival is to behave and tell me who sent you to poison the hotel?”
“You think, I’ll tell you?” Yan Li wiped the corner of his mouth, revealing a ferocious smile.
Ye Xiong lifted him entirely and threw several heavy punches, pummeling him until his bile spilled out; only then did he continue to ask, “Is it He Haodong?”
“You guess!”
“Guess your sister!”
Ye Xiong ruthlessly kicked him a few times, hitting him hard.
No matter how Ye Xiong questioned him afterward, Yan Li refused to speak, even as Ye Xiong drew a dagger and carved several cuts on Yan Li’s body, still failing to make him tell the truth.
Ye Xiong actually began to admire this guy, his lips were indeed sealed tight.
With no other choice, he had to take out his cellphone and call Luo Weiwei.
“Weiwei, I’ve captured Yan Li, now on a smuggling ship by the South River…”
Luo Weiwei said, “Ye Xiong, Yan Li is a mutant, you absolutely can’t take him lightly, you must sever his tendons…”
Before Luo Weiwei could finish, Ye Xiong’s mouth hung open wide, his gaze fixed on what was in front of him, so shocked he couldn’t speak.
Yan Li, who had been lying in the cabin, suddenly began to swell, his muscles bulging as if they’d been pumped full of air. In a matter of moments, his body, previously around one meter seventy-five, turned into a two-meter giant.
His clothes burst from his expanding body, strips of fabric hanging off him in an eerie way.
His face was covered with flesh tumours, and his eyes turned to a muddy yellow color, ringed like a snake’s.
“To hell with this, why didn’t you tell me earlier?” Ye Xiong quickly hung up the phone.
Just then, the transformed Yan Li suddenly lunged ferociously at Ye Xiong, his powerful fist carrying a whistling wind.
Ye Xiong quickly jumped to the riverbank to dodge the attack and, looking at the giant-like Yan Li, he cursed, “What the hell are you?”
“Gene Warrior, haven’t you heard of that?” Yan Li laughed heartily, pounding his chest with his fist like a mighty bear. “Dare to torture me, see how I deal with you.”
“To me, it’s just like going from an ant to a cockroach,” Ye Xiong scoffed.
“Dare to look down on me; I’ll see how you die,” Yan Li declared, then lunged fiercely at him.
Ye Xiong’s figure flashed, meeting the charge head-on, bang bang bang, a series of heavy punches all landed on Yan Li’s body; despite the tremendous force, he couldn’t knock him down.
“It seems Phoenix didn’t lie to me; such monsters do exist,” Ye Xiong muttered.
“Meet your doom!” Yan Li, like a giant, swung his palm-fan like hands at him.
Ye Xiong drew a black dagger from his body.
The dagger was sleek and shiny, emitting cold gleams.
“Mo Bing appears, severing all in its path; old friend, it’s been a while since you tasted blood, hasn’t it?”
As he lightly touched the dagger, Ye Xiong suddenly made his move.
Fast—his speed was indescribable. Only four cold flashes could be seen as Ye Xiong’s body grazed past Yan Li.
Then, both parties came to a standstill.
Yan Li stood in place, staring blankly at his own wrist as his palm, large as a fan, fell to the ground.
Then his legs, cleanly severed at the wrist, his entire body crashing down to the ground with a thud.
“Impossible, absolutely impossible, I’m a Gene Warrior, how could I lose to you?” Yan Li roared, trying to stand up, but alas, with one foot chopped off, he couldn’t stand at all.
His body slowly withered away, quickly shrinking from a giant of over two meters back to his normal stature.
Ye Xiong wiped his dagger and, in a showy manner, asked Tang Ning from afar, who was scared stiff like a fool, “Xiao Ning, is your brother-in-law cool or what?”
“So cool, so awesome!”
Tang Ning said excitedly, “Brother-in-law, you’re so badass, you even defeated an alien.”
“You’ve been watching too many sci-fi movies!”
Ye Xiong walked over to Yan Li, looked down at his pitiful state, and clicked his tongue, “You could have been a normal person, but you chose to be a monster, and now, even if you don’t die, you’re useless.”
Upon hearing this, Yan Li was so enraged that his blood rushed to his head and he fainted on the spot.
Several minutes later, the sound of police sirens wailed from the riverside, as Luo Weiwei hurried over.
Just as she was bracing for a big fight, she found Ye Xiong lying on the beach, leisurely basking in the moonlight, licking an ice cream.
“Where’s Yan Li?” Luo Weiwei asked urgently.
“Isn’t that him right there?” Ye Xiong pointed ahead to Yan Li on the ground, with severed hands and feet, barely alive, his voice dripping with disdain. “You guys are too slow. I’ve eaten five ice creams already, and you’re still not here.”
“It’s six,” Tang Ning corrected, and then curiously asked, “Cousin-in-law, why do you like eating ice cream so much?”
With you, this enchanting Minor Demon around, how could I extinguish the fire in my heart without eating some ice cream?
“Because this ice cream feels tender, slippery, and sweet, just like…”
“Hey, cousin-in-law, you’re so bad!”
Listening to the two of them, Luo Weiwei averted her eyes, walking straight to Yan Li, only to be shocked to her core.
“Did you hurt him?”
From Yan Li’s tattered clothes, she could tell that he had undergone the Transformation.
Recalling his invincible state after transforming back at the police station, where he burst through walls with no fear of knives and guns, like a gamer who had cheated, Luo Wei was taken aback by the fact that Ye Xiong had easily taken him down in the end.
How powerful must this guy be!
“Catching a mere cockroach, do you need to make such a big fuss?” Ye Xiong looked at the dozens of people on the shore with contempt.
All these people, I wonder if they’re enough. Do you think everyone is as monstrous as you are?
Luo Weiwei rolled her eyes and shouted, “Someone, tie Yan Li up with chains, take him back, and wrap him up a few more times.”
Suddenly, a few men in black suits approached from a distance, flashed their badges at Luo Weiwei and said, “Officer Luo, we’ll be taking this person away.”
When Luo Wei saw the badges, an expression of shock crossed her face, and she nodded repeatedly.
Before the men in suits left, they took a look at Ye Xiong, and then, taking Yan Li with them, they didn’t look back as they walked away.
It turns out the Dragon Group had also arrived; it seems they take Gene Warriors very seriously.
After a brief recording of their statements, Ye Xiong took Tang Ning and went home.
