Chapter 17 - Chapter 17 Murderous Intent Under the Night

After chatting in the group, Zhou Yang safely spent a whole day at school. With a cute deskmate to tease, he didn't feel bored.

However, in a few days, the college entrance examination would take place, along with a nationwide unified physical examination!

Although it was nominally to ensure the healthy growth of the nation's future, Zhou Yang felt that this was the country's way of detecting hidden Awakened individuals or potential seeds with a chance of Awakening or Cultivating among the student population.

They would be Ranked according to their potential, deciding whether to recruit them or observe them!

After all, once there are Awakened individuals or suitable Cultivation seeds, they are usually snatched up by Guilds and Sects to be nurtured as their next generation, strengthening their power!

After school, Zhou Yang bid farewell to his deskmate and slowly walked home under the setting sun, stopping by the supermarket to buy some ribs, beef, and vegetables, planning to cook himself.

After walking a certain distance, Zhou Yang suddenly stopped, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth, and calmly said, "How much longer are you going to follow me?"

As his voice fell, more than a dozen burly men, each with a fierce appearance, emerged from the originally empty and deserted path, clenching their fists and slowly approaching Zhou Yang!

"I didn't expect you to be able to find us. Your vigilance is pretty good!"

The leader was a burly man wearing a skull vest, named Chen Long, the boss of a local gang of hooligans. He usually made a living by extorting protection money from small shops and internet cafes.

He usually idled around with a group of people, was addicted to gambling, and owed a mountain of debt!

However, fortunately, a rich second-generation gave them 300,000 yuan today to break one of Zhou Yang's legs!

300,000 for one leg. As long as they acted quickly and added a few threats, this kid might not even dare to call the police. Then it would be like picking up money for free!

They had investigated before coming. This kid was a good student, but often such good students were soft-boned and couldn't even speak clearly when they saw them!

How could such a guy dare to offend a rich second-generation? Truly a newborn calf unafraid of the tiger.

But today, he, a man of society, would teach this kid a lesson in advance!

With money, you can do whatever you want!

Thinking of this, a ferocious smile appeared on Chen Long's face. He slowly took out a wooden stick from behind his back and said fiercely:

"Kid, blame yourself for being young and ignorant, and for provoking someone you shouldn't have!"

After speaking, Chen Long looked at the calm Zhou Yang, assuming the kid was scared silly. He tightened his grip on the wooden stick and swung it forcefully towards Zhou Yang's right leg!

Clang!

Along with a loud sound, the force from the wooden stick made Chen Long's tiger's mouth numb, and Zhou Yang, who had been standing in front of him, also disappeared!

Where did he go?

As this thought just popped into Chen Long's mind, a calm voice came from behind him:

"Are you looking for me?"

The voice was clear and youthful, but in Chen Long's ears, it was nothing short of a ghostly sound.

The sound scared him so much that he quickly turned around and saw Zhou Yang, arms crossed, looking at him with a playful gaze!

"Damn it, what kind of trick are you pulling, kid!"

One of Chen Long's subordinates saw this bizarre scene, picked up a brick in his hand, and smashed it towards Zhou Yang's head!

Crack, crack, crack!

But his hand suddenly felt a chill in mid-air, and then ice appeared on his palm and spread rapidly, instantly covering his entire body, turning him into a terrified ice sculpture, emitting bursts of white cold Qi!

Snap!

Zhou Yang gently snapped his fingers, and the ice sculpture shattered in response, turning into countless ice dust that dispersed, incredibly beautiful!

But beneath this beauty was a living human life!

Killing for the first time, Zhou Yang frowned, but didn't feel much discomfort. Instead, he felt a sense of pleasure in having the power of life and death!

Chen Long watched this beautiful death ritual, swallowed hard, and his fear continued to climb. He managed to utter a voice:

"Sup… Supernaturalist!"

How could this be? He was clearly just a guy from an ordinary family, why did he suddenly transform into a high-status Supernaturalist!

That brat Xiao Ran actually dared to trick me!

Chen Long hated Xiao Ran to the extreme in his heart. At the same time, he also complained about why Zhou Yang, a Supernaturalist, would pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger and act like an ordinary person. Isn't this entrapment?

The rest of the subordinates also trembled with fear at this sight. They were about to turn and run, but before they had run a few steps, they slipped on the icy ground and fell face first, some even knocking out their teeth!

Chen Long's heart also began to pound as he looked at the miserable state of his subordinates. After much thought, he knelt down with a thud, begging for mercy:

"Sir, I was also misled by a treacherous person to do this. Please, sir, be magnanimous and spare us!"

"Spare you?!"

Zhou Yang suddenly laughed, squatted down, looked at the pleading Chen Long, reached out and patted his face, and said with a smile, "What's your name?"

Chen Long quickly replied, "Chen Long!"

Zhou Yang, however, frowned and softly said, "I thought with your dog-like appearance, you should be called Chen Dog. How disappointing!"

Chen Long immediately choked, but seeing Zhou Yang's cold eyes, he quickly said, "Sir, I just said it wrong. Actually, my name is Chen Dog, woof woof woof..."

"Good boy. Your dog barks are quite realistic, but..."

Zhou Yang nodded in satisfaction and continued, "You've been in this game for so long, have you ever heard of a certain principle?"

"Please enlighten me, sir!"

Chen Long asked curiously. Suddenly, the world before him turned dark, and black tentacles emerged from the ground, binding him. No matter how much he struggled, it was useless.

His subordinates were also the same. Before they could even escape, they were tightly bound by the tentacles, unable to even make a sound, only whimpering.
