"You know the Serpent''s Strike?" A hint of surprise crossedn''s eyes. "You''re quite knowledgeable. Still, a loser like you isn''t worth my time. You''ve messed with the wrong person. You won''t get off lightly today!"n grinned, resembling a tiger that was ready to devour its prey.


    Anger red in Matthew''s eyes. Ian''s threat did anger him, but he was even more furious about something more significant.


    "Ancient martial artists aren''t allowed to attack ordinary people without cause. Aren''t you afraid of going against the rules?"


    "Afraid?"n closed in on Matthew. He continued nonchntly, "Why should I be? The one who set the rules is long dead. No one cares about the rules anymore."


    As he spoke, he suddenly lunged at Matthew, aiming his middle knuckle at Matthew''s eyes.


    Matthew''s eyes glinted. He''d likely end up blind ifn''s punch got him in the eye.n was undeniably ruthless.


    The fist was about tond on Matthew''s face when his leg shot out, delivering a kick ton''s stomach. A loud, dull noise sounded.


    The five men behind him gaped at the sight before them. They were aware of how formidablen was, having previously ended a civilian with just a single punch. Little did they expect him to be kicked away with just one move. They all stood frozen in their spots, unsure of what they should do next.


    Jeffrey was seated in his car, eager to witness Matthew being beaten to a pulp.


    But... Why wasn propelled into the air instead? How could this be?


    bbergasted,n gaped at Matthew. Disbelief filled his eyes as he sputtered, "How... How is this possible? You defeated me in one move. Are you an ancient martial artist as well?"Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Who sent you?" Matthew deflected.


    Gritting his teeth,n hauled himself back to his feet.


    "I wasn''t going to kill you, but I''ve changed my mind. I was careless earlier. So what if you''re an ancient martial artist? I could still defeat you in one move!"


    Sensing thatn was about to strike again, Matthew stared at him and remained rooted in ce.


    Seeing that Matthew was only a yard away from him, he aimed his right fist, at Matthew''s eyes. Halfway through his attack, he abruptly withdrew his fist and swung his left fist at Matthew instead.


    Just as his punch was two inches away from Matthew''s temple, Matthew suddenly shifted.


    Horrified,n stared at Matthew. "What... What level are you at? W-Why are you so strong?"


    Matthew shook his head. "Strong? I don''t think so. I''m just an ordinary person. You''re just too weak."


    "Why, you!"


    Blood trickled downn''s lips as he burst into a fit of rage. He knew he was far from an amateur, but Matthew was way beyond his level.


    "I''m no match for you, let alone those five men behind me. Just leave. We''ll end things here right now."


    End things? Matthew sauntered up ton. "Your opinion doesn''t matter. However, mine does.


    "Tell me, who sent you? Where is he?"


    Matthew continued, "Of course, you


    can choose to remain silent. You struck me twice earlier. If you still refuse to say anything, I will punch


    you just once. I won''t question you anymore if you can withstand it."
