Chapter 22 - 22 – Thunder God



Leo wanted to smirk so bad right now as he listened to Tang Jiuyang’s reason. He held himself back since it wasn’t appropriate to do that now.

’He is a perfect cannon fodder. The first ever in the story.’

"There is no way I am going to let them walk away like that after the insult!"

"Now, now, why don’t you calm down? You were the one who insulted my subordinate first." Leo pointed out as he walked forward while staring at the guards who blocked his way and tried to stab him with their sword.

He grabbed their wrist with his hand and applied force until there was a snapping sound that echoed throughout the hall and their sword fell to the ground.

"Aahhhhhh!!!" They screamed in pain while holding their wrist with a frightened expression on their faces.

Peng Li-Yue who witnessed it trembled from shock. What happened was too fast for her eyes to see clearly. Leo kept walking toward Tang Jiuyang who watched him with terror in his eyes.

He couldn’t help but fall backward to the ground and crawl away from the mad man while trying to put some distance between them.

"W-Who are you? Don’t get close to me! How dare you injure my guards! Do you know who I am?!"

His words were all ignored as Leo continued to advance until he stopped directly in front of him before speaking in a casual tone.

"Boy, you are the one who doesn’t know who I am. Do you think that you can use your daddy’s money to buy anything? To look down on people around you with a superficial authority you have? Let me tell you one thing."

He raised his palm up with a grin as an outline of black armor wrapped around it. Nanites reacted to his command and formed electricity which arced across the surface of the gauntlet while cackling menacingly.

"You can’t."

Then, he slammed his fist downwards.

Bam!

Like thunder clapping in the middle of the stormy sky, a massive amount of energy exploded the moment his fist hit the ground. The ground cracked and fragmented like broken glass while a large crater was left where Leo stood.

Shockwaves rushed throughout the manor while some guards lost their balance from the sudden powerful quake that rocked the entire building. Tang Jiuyang’s eyes widened in horror as he scrambled away from Leo without caring about what he looked like.

Leo was a lenient person. He didn’t even care if he was looked down upon. In his heart, he was a mercenary. Someone who would do all kinds of jobs for money. Tolerating his clients’ rudeness was also a part of the job.

But when it was related to his creation, he would protect them with all he had. And it included his family, Hallowed Insects.

When people tried to hurt or look down on what was precious to him, he would get angry.

’Ah, I did it again.’ He thought as the armor covering his hand receded under his sleeves. ’I plan to scare him a little, but he’s too much. Servants? Disrespect? We might be paid to do someone’s work, but we’re no servants.’

The word servant triggered him due to his past memories. A dystopian-like world where humans were forced to live like cattle and could only follow orders. No freedom, no self-will, no choice of living a life they wanted to.

They could only follow an absolute God called mega company or else they would die starving.

Returning to Peng Li-Yue, he whispered as he passed by her.

"Shui will protect you without any problem. Just tell them you hired us as bodyguards and our job is done here. I will go first with Anya."

"You-"

"Don’t talk to me anymore, not around this manor. This is also a necessary step to stop you being engaged to them."

Leo interrupted Peng Li-Yue and explained briefly before walking out with Anya.

When he looked at Shui, the Swordsman nodded at him with a smile. That was the signal that he would be okay by himself. He already knew what needed to be done.

No guards were brave enough to stop them from leaving. They were all frozen still, their hands trembling after seeing the thunderclap Leo displayed before. They were horrified by that attack.

"T-Thunder God." Someone muttered softly as Leo passed by. "He is Thunder God... to think such an expert exists."

That person’s mutter made others understand the meaning behind his action. This was a declaration of war against Tang Clan for disrespecting him.

Words spread easily in Qin City.

Before night even arrived, the word that a martial artist nicknamed Thunder God rampaged in Tang Clan manor because Tang Jiuyang called his comrade servant was known by every martial artist in the city.

"Hyahaha, you’re really famous now, Leader. They even give you a nickname Thunder God. It makes me want one too. What would they call me? Sexy Claw? Or rather, Silent Claw?

I don’t know which one is better! Ah, by the way, all of that was part of the plan, right? As expected of you!"

While he was making his way through the city’s main street at night, Anya jumped out from behind the corner of a nearby alleyway and landed next to Leo with a huge smile on her face as she tapped his shoulder repeatedly before continuing to speak excitedly in her usual cheerful voice.

"Leader is really smart, unlike me. Jessica is also smart, but she’s still nowhere near you."

"You exaggerated it. That’s not true." Leo shook his head slightly before looking at her and replying in a calm tone.

It was totally out of the plan, but the result came out better than he thought. He probably had to get used to a big clan’s arrogance soon. At least to some point.

"Let’s find an inn to spend the night. There will be more fighting in this town than in Chengdu. To avoid that, let’s visit a good establishment."

"Okay." Anya nodded as she pulled Leo’s sleeve gently and guided him through the crowd while humming a song happily. "But if you want to have fun with me at night, just tell me, Leader~"
