The Rise of Dragon Son-in-Law-Chapter 233 - 228: Desperate Counterattack_2

"Sign the document," Cao Qiu urged.

"First, extract the sword for me," Long Chen said solemnly. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Kid, pulling out the sword now might kill you," Cao Qiu said coldly.

"If you don’t extract the sword, I’ll keep bleeding and that’s a death sentence too. If I die, whatever you want to do won’t concern me anymore. Once I close my eyes, I won’t know anything. I imagine you would prefer me to stay alive to help you handle the various affairs after taking over Dragon Shadow Group. Therefore, I advise you to help me extract the sword and treat my wound. Otherwise, if you really want me dead, then even if I lose everything and die, I won’t let you succeed," Long Chen stated resolutely.

"Fine, very well, I’ll extract the sword myself," Cao Qiu reached out for the hilt and yanked out the sword fiercely.

Hiss.

A stream of fresh blood sprayed out, splattering the ground.

Long Chen didn’t make a sound, biting his teeth tightly.

"You also need to stop the bleeding, right? No problem, I can help you with that too," Cao Qiu grabbed a pile of tissue paper, ripped open the clothes at Long Chen’s wound, and then stuffed the tissues into the wound.

His movements were violent, showing no restraint.

Then, Cao Qiu tore off a piece of cloth and forcefully bound it over Long Chen’s wound.

A regular person would have passed out from the pain.

But Long Chen endured it, never once uttering a cry of pain.

Not even a sound!

This made Cao Qiu wary of Long Chen.

"I have to admit, you possess an extraordinary will beyond that of most people, but now it’s all useless. You can only survive if you cooperate with me," Cao Qiu’s eyes glinted coldly.

Long Chen closed his eyes and realized that the strength in his blood and Spiritual Power were frantically neutralizing the poison within his body.

As the poison diminished, Long Chen felt his power returning.

However, since his Pipa Bone had been pierced, Long Chen found he seemed to have the power but also felt like he couldn’t utilize it.

This made Long Chen anxious; he knew that time was critical and couldn’t afford to delay.

Cao Qiu didn’t want to delay either. He had the contract and a pen fetched, insisting Long Chen sign.

Long Chen raised his hand and said, "My hands are covered in blood. How can I sign like this? You don’t need to rush this very second, do you?"

Slap.

Cao Qiu slapped Long Chen across the face and shouted, "Brat, speak politely to your elder. If you anger me, I’ll have my way with your woman first, and then I’ll figure out how to force you to sign."

"Long... Long Chen, just sign quickly."

At that moment, Han Min’s voice came from nearby.

Han Min had woken up at some point and was now trembling as she stared at the bloodied Long Chen.

Long Chen gave Han Min a murderous look.

Despite being on guard against many things, he still hadn’t managed to guard against Han Min.

"You’ve disappointed me," Long Chen said through gritted teeth.

"It’s too late for any words now. Long Chen, if you’re still a man, just sign quickly. Don’t put everyone’s fate at risk for your company’s sake," Han Min said sternly.

"Shut up," Long Chen burst out in fury: "Han Min, after this is over, you’ll pay a severe price. No one can save you, not even the Heavenly Emperor descending from heaven. I will not let you off."

"I... I didn’t do anything; why are you targeting me?" Han Min retorted, teeth clenched.

"I never lost consciousness. I heard everything you said when you entered the room with that old crook Cao," Long Chen declared.

Hearing this, Han Min knew she couldn’t wash away her suspicion and impulsively admitted defeat: "Yes, I was the one who poisoned you. So what? Your Martial Arts are destroyed now; what can you possibly do to me?"

"Heh."

Long Chen chuckled coldly and said no more.

Inwardly, Long Chen was frantically healing the injury to his Pipa Bone.

"Someone, wash this little bastard Long Chen’s hands, and make him sign the document. All of this must be done within ten minutes; we want a quick resolution," Cao Qiu ordered coldly.

"Yes."

Immediately, two men came forward, washed Long Chen’s hands, and dried them.

Afterwards, they began to press Long Chen to sign.

Long Chen never intended to actually comply and sign, and out of nowhere, he suddenly made his move.

Bang, bang!

Long Chen raised his hands and delivered two punches, instantly killing two of Cao Qiu’s men, their heads cracking upon impact.

Boom.

Following that, Long Chen struck out with another palm, piercing through the heart of the middle-aged man.

Long Chen did not stop, his moves flowing smoothly in succession, as he turned and swept out a leg. A figure flew sideways, already breathless before hitting the ground.

Everything happened too quickly, all within three seconds.

So fast that Cao Qiu had not even reacted before all of his men were killed.

"Your turn, you old beast."

Long Chen moved to kill Cao Qiu.

Cao Qiu, jolted awake, immediately engaged Long Chen in combat.

Bang, bang, bang.

In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged several moves. Cao Qiu’s True Qi was majestic, his robes billowed, forcing Long Chen back several steps.

Blood trickled from the corner of Long Chen’s mouth, being forced back solely because he had only recovered a small fraction of his strength.

"Kid, you indeed have exceptional talent, and everyone has underestimated you, but you, after all, are still not enough."

Cao Qiu twisted his neck, his eyes fierce.

"Then let’s try, today it’s either your death or my demise."

Long Chen charged at Cao Qiu with unstoppable momentum.

Cao Qiu displayed a domineering Boxing Art, combining it with majestic True Qi to unleash formidable power.

Long Chen kept retreating, coughing up blood.

He felt extremely frustrated. If it weren’t for his incomplete recovery, he would have easily subdued Cao Qiu, even if he was fifth on the Martial King List.

"How about my God-breaking Fist? Strong enough for you?"

Cao Qiu sneered, relentlessly advancing with moves that were extremely ruthless, attacking only where Long Chen was injured.

"Old dog, your Martial Arts aren’t too impressive. Even with my severe injuries, killing you wouldn’t be impossible."

Long Chen went all out, not retreating but advancing instead.

This nearly insane offensive unleashed terrifying energy.

Even if Cao Qiu was a Martial Arts Grandmaster, he was momentarily stunned.

Bang.

He tried to meet a punch head-on, only to have his entire body shake violently like he’d been electrocuted.

"Your True Qi is somewhat strange."

Cao Qiu’s face darkened.

This was the first time Cao Qiu had shown any change in expression!

"Old dog, there’s still much you don’t know; die."

Long Chen grew increasingly fierce in battle.

Because his Spiritual Power and strength were recovering more rapidly amidst the fight.

The more Cao Qiu fought, the more something felt off. He couldn’t understand how a man with a pierced Pipa Bone could fight so valiantly.

At first, he could suppress him a little, but later he couldn’t suppress him at all and was countered in desperation.

Why?

Could anger truly bestow limitless strength?

Cao Qiu couldn’t figure it out!

But while Cao Qiu was slightly distracted, Long Chen landed a punch on Cao Qiu’s chest.

Spurt.

Cao Qiu spit out blood and staggered backward, his eyes filled with shock.

He knew very well that if the fight continued, he might capsize in the gutter.

"You’re ruthless, we’ll meet again."

Cao Qiu turned and fled.

Long Chen wanted to chase, but suddenly found the energy within his body chaotically surging, crashing haphazardly with signs of losing control, and had no choice but to stop the pursuit.

"Cao Qiu, you can’t let Long Chen live, you can’t let him live, come back and kill him," Han Min quickly shouted.

But Cao Qiu completely ignored Han Min and hurriedly left.

That figure, as sorry a state as it could be.

"It’s over."

Han Min slumped powerlessly to the ground, her complexion deathly pale.

She knew very well, that this time, it would probably be her most difficult one.

Long Chen’s gaze slowly shifted, landing on Han Min, he coldly said, "You traitor, I said that today I would definitely make you pay a painful price."

"Long Chen, you... don’t be rash, every single mistake is mine. I am willing to admit my errors; I’ll change, I truly will change this time, please, please don’t kill me."

Han Min pleaded, fear crawling over her soul.

"Begging for mercy is useless, but rest assured, I won’t kill you. However, I will make sure to cripple you, so that for the rest of your life, you cannot walk, and you cannot speak."

Long Chen’s expression was cold.

He was determined to teach Han Min a profoundly harsh lesson.

Just as Long Chen raised his hand to act, Xia Ling and others, almost simultaneously opened their eyes.

Xia Ling was the first to realize something was wrong with Long Chen’s actions. Startled, she quickly shouted, "Long Chen, don’t be reckless, she’s Yuechan’s mother, let’s talk this out calmly."
