Chapter 361: Clue
The Blood Worship Gang!?
Zhao Dong's pupils instantly dilated, and a bloodthirsty scarlet light filled them!
THUMP!
Zhao Dong slammed Li Qing against the wall. "What did you just say? Are you a member of the Blood Worship Gang?"
"What's the connection between the Blood Worship Gang and the Blood Sect!?"
"You know of the Blood Sect?" Li Qing was stunned for a moment, then hissed venomously, "The Blood Worship Gang works for the Blood Sect. Since you've heard of them, you should know how powerful we are!"
Zhao Dong was overjoyed! Su Yurou's attempts to find information on the Blood Sect had yielded nothing, leaving him deeply anxious. The appearance of this Blood Worship Gang was his chance to get close to them!
"Speak! Where is the Blood Worship Gang?" Zhao Dong demanded, his face a mixture of shock and elation as he grabbed Li Qing by the hair.
Seeing Zhao Dong's reaction, Li Qing was dumbfounded.
"You... you're not afraid of the Blood Sect?"
"Cut the crap! Tell me where the Blood Sect is, or you're dead!"
Zhao Dong looked desperate, his eyes glinting with murderous intent.
Seeing him like this, Li Qing had a terrible premonition.
He was just a nobody in the Blood Worship Gang. If he really caused trouble for them, they would kill him before Zhao Dong even had the chance. This man clearly has a vendetta against the Blood Sect. How could he possibly say anything?
Consequently, Li Qing clenched his jaw and stubbornly refused to speak.
"Not talking, are you?" A chilling glint flashed in Zhao Dong's eyes. He yanked Li Qing up by his hair and dragged him straight toward the balcony.
Xiao Ya was still here, so Zhao Dong obviously couldn't go too far in front of a child.
After Zhao Dong left, the underlings scattered in all directions.
Wang Jing's face turned deathly pale with fear, and she quickly comforted Xiao Ya.
Upstairs, a series of sharp slaps rang out.
SLAP, SLAP, SLAP...
Li Qing's face was beaten to a bloody pulp. His flesh was torn, and broken teeth mixed with bits of flesh splattered everywhere in a horrific scene.
"Are you going to talk now?" Zhao Dong towered over him like a god of death.
"No... I can't..."
THUMP!
Zhao Dong kicked him, then grabbed him by the neck and forced him to the edge of the rooftop.
The cold wind howled past.
The overwhelming terror of imminent death washed over Li Qing.
"No... Don't kill me... I'll talk... I'll tell you everything..."
Li Qing completely broke. He hadn't dared to tell Zhao Dong simply because he was afraid the Blood Worship Gang and the Blood Sect would kill him. But if he didn't speak now, this god of death in front of him would kill him on the spot!
At that moment, he was sick with regret. If he could do it all over again, he would never have come looking for trouble...
"Speak! Where is it?" Zhao Dong demanded, yanking Li Qing back.
"In the southern suburbs... I... I can take you there..." Terrified, Li Qing cowered in a corner, trembling like a dying dog.
"If you dare to lie to me, you will die!"
Zhao Dong hauled Li Qing to his feet and headed downstairs.
On the way past Wang Jing's apartment, he went inside to comfort the mother and daughter again. Fortunately, their hatred for Li Qing ran deep. Because of his previous oppression, they had developed some resistance to their instinctual fear of him.
After a few brief words of comfort to ensure they were emotionally stable, Zhao Dong immediately departed for the southern suburbs with Li Qing in tow.
Every day Xu Yafei spent in the Blood Sect was another day of danger. I can't just wait around calmly!
「Half an hour later.」
At an entertainment club in the southern suburbs, a taxi pulled to a stop. Zhao Dong dragged Li Qing, who was as limp as a dead dog, toward the main entrance.
"Li Qing!?"
"Who the fuck are you? How dare you lay a hand on someone from our Blood Worship Gang?"
When the security guards at the door saw who Zhao Dong was holding, they immediately surrounded him.
"Save... save me..." Li Qing desperately reached out to the guards for help.
Li Qing had served his purpose as a guide, so Zhao Dong had no more use for him.
He lashed out with a kick.
Li Qing's body flew through the air, landing at the guards' feet.
SPLAT!
He coughed up a spray of blood and passed out.
The surrounding pedestrians were dumbfounded by the scene!
"Holy shit! Who is this guy? Doesn't he know this is the Blood Worship Gang's turf? How dare he hurt someone here?"
"The last time some brute caused trouble on their territory, you know what happened? That night, his corpse was dragged off to feed the dogs!"
"The Blood Worship Gang is backed by the Blood Sect! This guy is a dead man for offending them, no matter how strong he is!"
"Yeah! The Blood Sect is a behemoth that not even the top families in Provincial City can touch. How could some greenhorn dare to challenge them?"
As the crowd murmured, the security guards snapped out of their shock.
"You're fucking looking to die! You dare to attack someone right in front of us? Do you think the Blood Worship Gang is a bunch of pushovers?"
"Brothers, get him!"
The enraged guards charged at Zhao Dong, brandishing their clubs.
"Just you?" Zhao Dong's eyes narrowed as his right foot swept out.
THUD, THUD, THUD...
The men were sent flying, rolling across the ground like gourds.
HISS! The crowd drew a collective sharp breath.
"Holy shit! He's so fast I couldn't even see his movements!"
"What good is speed? Connections are what matter in this world. Those guards are just ordinary guys, so what if he beat them? The real terror will begin when the other members of the Blood Worship Gang show up!"
The crowd of onlookers grew larger. Someone brazenly causing trouble on the Blood Worship Gang's turf was a spectacle not to be missed.
Just as they expected, after the guards were sent flying and wailing, a clamor of footsteps erupted from within the nightclub.
The next moment, a hundred thugs in black suits poured out.
The men parted into two lines. A middle-aged man in a floral shirt with slicked-back hair walked out from between them, chewing arrogantly on a cigar.
He sized up Zhao Dong and demanded coldly, "Who are you? Why have you come to my Blood Worship Gang's territory to cause trouble?"
"To my recollection, I haven't offended you, have I?"
"You haven't offended me," Zhao Dong said, waving his hand. "But your underlings and the people backing you have!"
"My underlings?" The man glanced at the unconscious Li Qing and sneered. "That piece of trash doesn't count as one of my men. His actions have nothing to do with the Blood Worship Gang."
"As for the people backing me? Are you referring to...?"
The man's eyes narrowed, a flash of murderous intent within them.
"That's right. The Blood Sect," Zhao Dong admitted directly.
He was here looking for the Blood Worship Gang to get information on the Blood Sect, so there was no need to be coy.
Hearing this, a hint of caution appeared in the man's eyes.
After a moment, he suddenly burst out laughing. "Young brother, you're a man of true character. Daring to enter the dragon's lair alone... I, Qian San, admire you for it!"
"How about this? I'll apologize on Li Qing's behalf for whatever he did to offend you. Name your price for compensation, and I'll give it to you."
"As for your grudge with the Blood Sect, why don't we just let bygones be bygones? If you're still not satisfied, how about you go and find them yourself?"
