Chapter 22: The Peach Blossom Eyes Uncle

Swish, swish, swish.

A series of thin, whistling sounds filled the air. Four black-suited bodyguards standing by the luxury SUV aimed barrel-shaped weapons at Li Xiaofei and started pulling the trigger. Countless deadly projectiles indiscriminately blanketed the area around him. This was beyond what mere physical strength could counter.

Li Xiaofei grabbed Zhong Ling and rolled to the side. He quickly hurled Zhong Yang\'s corpse at the barrage of projectiles.

Thud, thud, thud.

Zhong Yang\'s body was instantly riddled with arrows. Taking advantage of the brief moment, Li Xiaofei rolled away with Zhong Ling in his arms. Zhong Ling, disoriented, was overwhelmed by the spinning world and the indescribable masculine scent that filled her nose.

She screamed instinctively, "What are you doing? Let go of me!"

"Shut up," Li Xiaofei snapped impatiently. Zhong Ling was light and soft as a pillow. She exuded a subtle, enticing fragrance. He held her tightly and kept moving. He slid behind a stone wall in the nick of time.

Thud, thud, thud.

Thirty to forty special Qi-breaking arrows struck the stone wall, their fletching vibrating with a buzzing sound.

"Hide here and don\'t come out," Li Xiaofei instructed Zhong Ling before dashing out.

It was only then that Zhong Ling understood what was happening, and she cowered behind the stone wall, trembling with fear.

Meanwhile, Li Xiaofei charged forward like a mad bull. He scooped up two corpses from the ground, swinging them like a shield to deflect most of the special arrows. It only took him five seconds to close the distance to the four black-suited bodyguards.

Boom!

He unleashed a punch. One of the bodyguards, also at the fifth stage, raised his arm to block. But how could he withstand the force of Li Xiaofei\'s dragon-like strength?

Crack.

The bodyguard\'s arm snapped, bending into a V shape. His massive body was sent flying and he crashed into the SUV, denting the hood. Blood gushed from his orifices; he was beyond saving.

Bang, bang, bang.

The other three bodyguards were swiftly dealt with almost at the same time. Li Xiaofei stood there, panting heavily. His right shoulder had three dark red patches as blood started to soak through his clothes. He had been hit by arrows.

He glanced at the black-suited bodyguard embedded in the SUV\'s hood. The bodyguard\'s black suit had remained intact despite the impact. It was clearly some kind of highly protective combat suit. The weapon in the guard\'s hand resembled a nail gun from the 2020s, which was not classified as a firearm. It didn\'t violate the Great Xia Republic\'s strict gun control laws, yet it still posed a significant threat.

This reminded Li Xiaofei that mastering only martial techniques wouldn\'t be enough in the martial art-focused future; it would be best to also master a movement technique or be equipped with powerful armor. Li Xiaofei turned to look at Ye Xiang.

Ye Xiang, terrified, instinctively said, "I am a member of one of the five major families..."

Boom!

Li Xiaofei moved like lightning, unleashing a powerful punch as he shouted, "Die!"

It didn\'t matter if it was one of the five major families or the seven major gangs. If they wanted to kill him, they had to be prepared for a counterattack. The force of his punch created a visible shockwave in the air, resembling a fierce dragon that instantly engulfed Ye Xiang.

Boom!

The energy exploded. The turbulent air began to settle, and the dust cleared. Against all odds, Ye Xiang was unharmed. A mysterious figure had appeared in front of him.

"Good thing I arrived in time." The newcomer said as he slowly retracted his hand and dissipated the remnants of the punch\'s force. "Impressive. That punch had the power of a peak sixth stage at minimum."

Li Xiaofei\'s eyes narrowed slightly. This man appeared to be around thirty. He was tall and muscular, wearing a simple black tracksuit. His dense, short-cropped hair and square face gave him a righteous look, but his almond-shaped eyes exuded a roguish charm.

This guy was strong. Li Xiaofei sensed an even greater threat from him than from Dugu Que or Wu Potian.

Seventh stage?

Perhaps even higher. He restrained his impulse to attack.

"Didn\'t expect to find such a talented ancient martial arts youth in the slum." The man with the peach blossom eyes looked Li Xiaofei up and down. "Kid, tell uncle, how old are you?"

Li Xiaofei said, "Eighteen."

"Really?" The man stroked his chin in surprise and asked, "Eighteen centimeters?"

Li Xiaofei was speechless.

What the hell... Is this master a pervert?

"Move aside," Li Xiaofei said coldly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, so young and impetuous." The man sighed. "Do you know what the consequences will be if you really kill him? The Ye family will never let you go."

Li Xiaofei responded indifferently, "As if they would let me go if I don\'t kill him now?"

"Of course they will," the man said. "Because I can protect you."

Li Xiaofei sneered, "I don\'t believe you."

Ye Xiang’s eyes were bloodshot. He gritted his teeth as he spat out, "Little bastard, you should start praying now. The Ye family will never let you go. You, your friends, everyone you know, will all die."

Li Xiaofei gave him a look and said, "Whatever."

"In that case..." The man with peach blossom eyes looked a bit embarrassed. He stepped aside and said, "Go ahead, kid, kill him."

Ye Xiang was horrified and quickly said, "Principal Chen, don\'t joke like that."

The man sneered, "Who\'s joking? What do you rely on in the martial world? Reputation! If you don\'t give me the respect I’m worthy of, why should I protect you?"

When he saw the murderous intent in Li Xiaofei\'s eyes, Ye Xiang hurriedly said, "Principal Chen, no, I\'ll give... whatever respect you want, I\'ll give it to you, just save me."

The man with peach blossom eyes finally looked satisfied. "In that case, don\'t mess with my little brother Eighteen from now on."

Li Xiaofei was once again rendered speechless.

Eighteen centimeters, my ass. Your whole family is eighteen centimeters. Are we really not getting past this lame joke?

Ye Xiang resentfully asked, "Principal Chen, are you really protecting this little basta- guy? Is he your friend?"

The man replied confidently, "Not yet, but he definitely will be in the future."

Ye Xiang\'s expression shifted multiple times, unwilling to accept it. He asked, "Why?"

The man said confidently, "Because he\'s eighteen, of course."

Ye Xiang was also struck speechless. It seemed one had to lower their head under the eaves.

He nodded reluctantly, "Fine, I promise not to trouble this little bastard from now on."

The man patted Ye Xiang on the shoulder, satisfied. "That\'s better. Hurry along, or you\'ll miss dinner."

Ye Xiang turned and left, not even glancing at the bodies of the bodyguards who had died for him. Li Xiaofei watched Ye Xiang\'s retreating figure as he felt the urge to attack.

"Don\'t chase him. You really can\'t kill him." The man stood in his way and said seriously, "It\'s not just because he\'s from one of the five major families. Even if he were just a dog of one of the families, you can\'t touch him unless you want all your friends and family to die with you."

"Oh. Alright." Li Xiaofei complied readily.

"Eh?" The man was taken aback. "Why did you suddenly... uh... suddenly..."

"Suddenly become so easy to persuade?" Li Xiaofei completed his question.

"Yeah, yeah." The man nodded. "After all, you were acting like you were ready to go down together just a second ago."

Li Xiaofei admitted, "Just putting on a show. Given the situation, the effect of showing off would be greatly diminished if I backed down immediately."

It was now the man’s turn to be speechless.

Turns out, I\'m just a tool.

"Let me introduce myself." The man with the peach blossom eyes straightened as he said, "I’m Chen Fei, the youngest and most handsome principal in the history of Red Flag High School, and winner of the Most Popular Teacher Among Female Students award for ten consecutive years."

Red Flag High School? Principal?

Li Xiaofei was quite surprised. A school with such a name was clearly a public institution. It must have the backing of the Great Xia Republic’s government. No wonder he dared to threaten Ye Xiang. Of course, his own strength also played a significant role.

"Young man, I see that you have an extraordinary aura, clear brows, and remarkable bones. You\'re a once-in-a-million martial arts prodigy." Chen Fei smiled at him. "How about it, are you interested in attending my Red Flag High School?"
