Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 710 Step foot in this par

Hearing the name that he had gained during his fights in the underworld, Liu Shan looks at the person with a nonchalant expression. He stares at Jia Yin with a blank expression and furrows his brows.

"Do I know you?"

"Jia Yin!"

The moment he asked his question, Tao Meng shouts at his righthand man before being careless. He cast a sidelong glare at the man but seeing the man’s pale expression, he turned confused.

Like a key opening his locked memories, Liu Shan finally remembers. One corner of his lip arc up into a side smirk as mischief flash across his eyes.

"Ah, I remember now."

He sounds a faint chuckle, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"You are Jia Yin. My last opponent before I left."

Being looked at by the assistant, Jia Yin felt more afraid than when he is facing his boss. It was like millions of tiny spiders were crawling on him and making him unable to move.

He had met Mad Reaper once during a fight, but it was also the last time. The reason why he recognized Liu Shan is the Mad Reaper was when the fight ended. He (Jia Yin) had been knocked out and before he lost his consciousness, Mad Reaper revealed his face to him.

It was only for a split second, but he will never forget the face of the man who showed mercy upon him.

As one should know, the fights that take place in the underworld are deadly and can cause one of their life.

When he awoke from the fight, he was surprised to still be alive. Many said he got away by luck because the opponents of Mad Reaper never survived. However, only he knows the truth that took place during the fight.

That dreadful feeling of wanting to throw in the towel and surrender. Mad Reaper’s last punch was aimed at his head, but at the last minute, the course of direction changed to his ribcage. If that punched had struck his head, he would have suffered brain damage and turn into a vegetable.

As the memory of that horrifying fight return to him, Jia Yin stumbles a step back. He didn’t hide the fear that can be seen on his face.

Tao Meng stares dumbfoundedly at his subordinate. When he thought back to the name Mad Reaper, his eyes widen, and he looks at Liu Shan.

"Jia Yin, you mean he is..."

He couldn’t finish his words but from the corner of his eyes, he could see his subordinate nod his head in response.

Everyone from Red Moon was rendered speechless by this sudden information. They have never met Mad Reaper but have heard about all his deadly and notorious fights.

Tao Meng was the one who was more shocked than everyone. He thought Liu Shan was a regular member of Fate that happened to live next door to Ling Ni.

However, to know his true identity, even he can’t help but fear the assistant.

He looks at Yue Ling and forces a chuckle with a crooked smile then leans forward in a bow.

"I am terribly sorry for the trouble my men have caused. We were blind and failed to see Mount Tai."

Seeing Tao Meng bow, his men were confused but follow in his steps. Each person thought the same thing, could it be that their boss was afraid of Mad Reaper?

Only, they did not know that it was the woman in front of them terrified Tao Meng more than Mad Reaper did.

Yue Ling stares emotionlessly at the group of men. She shrugs one shoulder in a nonchalant manner and tilts her head to the side.

"It’s not me who you should be apologizing to but my subordinates."

She kept her eyes on Tao Meng then turns away.

"It’s also them who will decide whether to accept your apology."

Just as her back was turned to them, blood boiled inside Xiao and his face turned red. He straightens his spine and glares at Yue Ling.

He had only bowed because his boss did it. From what he can conclude his boss was showing politeness to Mad Reaper. How dare this woman thinks highly of herself?

His right-hand reaches behind his back and he grabs the gun he had hid.

"My boss wasn’t apologizing to a woman like you."

The only woman who can make his boss lower his head is Mami. However, Yue Ling isn’t her.

He points the gun at Yue Ling and sneers. No one has ever humiliated Red Moon like this. How dare she think this kindness was directed at her.

Yue Ling was unfazed by the man’s words and walks away. However, unlike her, Tao Meng trembled in anger. He straightens his posture and glares at his useless subordinate.

"Xiao!"

*Swoosh—

At the same time Tao Meng’s roar fell, a silver light flashed from out of the blue and hits Xiao’s hand holding the gun.

"Arrgh—!!"

Xiao shrieks in a shrill cry and drops the gun onto the ground before he could even pull the trigger. He covers his hand and raises it up to see what had stabbed him.

His eyes tremble with red veins when he sees a silver needle. It had pierced into the skin between his thumb and index finger.

He plucks the needle out like it was splinter and holding it out in front of him, he glares at Yue Ling’s departing figure than to the five men still facing him.

"Who was it?! Who threw this piece of shit?!"

As Yue Ling returned to her table, Liu Shan takes a step to fill the place she was standing. He glances at Xiao then to Tao Meng. His expression no longer held his usual carefreeness as all there was a coldness that will give one horrifying nightmare.

"Tao Meng, I suggest you put your people in their place. She left you off easy this time. If you or your men keep crossing the line, don’t blame the merciless of fate."

Hearing his words, Xiao grew more furious. He takes a step forward to stand his ground and toss the needle on the ground then stomps on it.

"What, just because you are known as Mad Reaper, you think you are so good? Don’t think that you all will get away with this. I will catch you all, one by one, and skin you all alive."

"Xiao!!!"

Tao Meng was dumbfounded and roars thunderously into the sky. He did not hide his fury and grabs Xiao by the shirt and shoves the skinny man to Jia Yin.

"Take him away." Follow current s on (f)ire

Out of all his lackeys in Red Moon, Xiao was the worse. He is hardheaded and has a bad temper. Anything that doesn’t go his way, he will cause havoc until he is satisfied.

If the people they were dealing with right now was another group, he wouldn’t care. However...

He looks at Liu Shan and the other four men. Now he understands why they didn’t show any fear when he and his men arrived. They were people many fears in the underworld.

"I will make sure that none of my people ever step foot in this part of Imperial."

He gestures a nod and turns away. Without saying another word, he strides over to Ling Ni and grabs her wrist.

Ling Ni doesn’t fight the man off but allows him to drag her away. She didn’t forget to turn back and look at Liu Shan one last time.
