Chapter 110 - Reason
“What do I do? What do I do?”
Looking at her little brother fighting in the distance, Chen Jing felt quite panicked, “Where are the government officers? Why aren’t they here yet? My little brother is fighting with a criminal!”
“They’ll be here soon.”
Her friends’ faces were pale as they comforted her, “Your little brother will be fine!”
“Is there anyone who can help?”
Chen Jing looked incredibly worried as she looked around, “Please, please help my little brother!”
She looked at a few well-built men wearing martial artists’ clothes in the surroundings. A few of them seemed to be martial arts instructors from around here.
It was just that they could only bitterly smile as they looked at Chen Jing.
The difference in strength was simply too great.
Those who could be martial arts teachers were all at least at Body Forging 80%, and they were 20% away from Completion.
However, battle power was not calculated like this.
Someone at Body Forging Completion had complete control over their bodies, and every move could unleash great power.
It could be said that a person at Body Forging Completion could easily defeat seven or eight people at Body Forging 80%.
Moreover, Body Forging and skills were completely different too.
Looking at these two people, their strength was not something that ordinary people at Body Forging Completion could rival with. Every attack that they unleashed contained incredibly ferocious power.
An ordinary Body Forging Completion expert would not be able to last for long in front of them.
If they dared to charge up, they would come out lying down.
Putting aside the danger to themselves, if they just charged in like this, not only would they not be able to help Chen Heng, but they would also most likely be a burden to him.
“Your little brother is too amazing, and we can’t help at all,” they said with bitter smiles, “Even though we’re much bigger than him, if we rushed in, we would not be able to take even one or two attacks.”
“Your little brother really is a genius…”
Looking at the young man fighting in the distance, they could not help but sigh.
From how it seemed, this young man was most likely at Body Forging Completion.
With his age, this was simply too shocking.
“I don’t think there has been anyone in Lin City in recent times who has reached Body Forging Completion before graduation…” someone muttered.
Hearing these people’s words, Chen Jing was stunned.
Fortunately, at that moment, various noises could be heard from the distance.
Black patrol cars with wailing sirens were quickly converging here.
The government’s people had arrived!
A look of delight appeared on Chen Jing’s face.
“Looks like we can’t wait until the perfect time.” Hearing the sounds from afar, Liu Jue shook his head and felt that it was a pity.
From the start, he knew that this middle-aged man would be difficult to deal with.
As such, he wanted to use this person to see Chen Heng’s strength and rescue Chen Heng when he fell into dire straits.
After saving someone from a life-threatening crisis, it would be much easier to recruit them.
However, he had never thought that Chen Heng would be so powerful. Even though he had fought with the middle-aged man for such a long time, he had not been disadvantaged the entire time.
This was not like an ordinary high schooler who had never fought before; he seemed like an experienced martial artist whose every move contained great power and skill.
In fact, Liu Jue felt that if they went on like this, that person might not be a match for Chen Heng.
However, now, it was a time to put an end to this fight.
Even though he felt that it was a pity, Liu Jue decided to act.
As everyone watched on, a figure quickly acted and reached the center of the battlefield in just a few breaths.
The middle-aged man seemed to sense something and warily looked up, instinctively wanting to turn.
At that moment, a bloodied hand stretched out and grabbed his neck and ferociously pushed down.
Bang!!
At that moment, he was slammed by Chen Heng into the ground.
He still struggled, but Chen Heng had a firm grip on his neck, as well as pinned his arms and legs to the ground.
Liu Jue watched this scene in surprise and a look of appreciation appeared on his face.
He did not do any flashy actions and instead smashed the middle-aged man’s head with a precise hit.
Immediately, the middle-aged man’s body stopped moving as he collapsed.
“It’s over…”
After dealing with the man, Liu Jue turned and looked at Chen Heng.
He was already on the ground.
After dealing with the man, he had used up all of his strength and had almost collapsed. He had one hand against the ground, raggedly breathing.
Blood continuously flowed out of his body, pooling on the ground.
Looking at him like this, Liu Jue felt more and more appreciation towards him.
He was about to say something when a figure ran over from the crowd.
“Lil Heng, are you alright?!” Chen Jing quickly ran over and said with a bit of a sob as she looked at the bloodied Chen Heng.
“I’m fine…” Chen Heng shook his head with great difficulty.
“Make way, let us through to the patient!” At that moment, an ambulance arrived and many people got off and quickly brought Chen Heng onto the ambulance.
As his family member, Chen Jing also got in the ambulance.
“Why are you so stupid?” Chen Jing said angrily in the ambulance, “Why didn’t you run from that serial murderer? Why did you stay there?
“That person wasn’t going after you; why did you have to fight him and try to be a hero?”
Chen Jing spoke somewhat angrily and fearfully.
In response, Chen Heng only shook his head. He did not say anything, nor did he know how to explain.
His body looked like it was in a very bad state, but in actuality, it was not as bad as everyone else thought.
They were just surface injuries.
That person had not been a match for Chen Heng at all; if it wasn’t for Chen Heng holding back, they would not have gone on for so long.
It was just that this was the real world, and that was a real person, not a monster.
Killing someone in front of so many people not only would be bad for his image but would also cause much trouble.
Chen Heng did not want to become a murderer.
Even if he had done it in self-defense, once he had killed someone, the way others looked at him would change.
What he had done just then was quite good.
Chen Heng had successfully shown his strength and won respect.
After this battle, his name would definitely spread and cause many people to pay attention to him.
If he could get a rich person to invest in him, he would not have to worry about the resources he would need for cultivation.
Moreover, with his prior preparation, he had found a good reason for hiding his strength.
He had been a genius since he was young but had hidden his cultivation because he liked a certain person since he was young and wanted to stay with her.
In order to not leave this city, he had hidden his cultivation and pretended to be an ordinary person so he could stay in the same place as her.
After all, once he revealed his strength, he would have to leave this city and go to other places to cultivate.
Before, he had wanted to continue hiding his strength, but because the person he liked had fallen in danger, he had been forced to act and show his strength to save her.
What a good explanation.
Even though it was a bit cringey to Chen Heng, given his age, it would be most likely believable.
After all, he was still a high schooler.
Weren’t high schoolers pure and passionate?
This all made sense to him, and now he would have to see what other people thought.
