Chapter 5, Strike with Force!

"Go to hell!"

The burly man raged, swinging his steel rod towards Zhou Yang's head with vicious speed.

Zhou Yang didn't turn his head, discerning the steel rod's trajectory by sound alone, he moved quickly to grab it, and with a fierce yank.

The steel rod was wrenched from the hands of the burly man. Due to its excessive speed and force, it tore off a layer of the man's skin, blood streaming and agonizing pain piercing his heart.

Zhou Yang kicked back fast as lightning.

The burly man, responding to the force, bent like a six-foot-three-inch shrimp and was sent flying backward, smashing the door to splinters and colliding with the hallway wall, blood spewing from his mouth, he was down for the count.

Immediately after.

Zhou Yang launched a dimension-crushing, savage assault against the attackers; with each swing of the steel rod, the sound of breaking bones crunched in the air, chilling to the bone.

He was going to return the humiliation and torture his parents had endured, back to these people, twofold!

Less than three seconds.

All of Gang's men were severely injured and down, lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead, not even a moan to be heard.

Zhou Yang, holding the dripping steel rod, pointed it directly at Gang, and gritted his teeth, "Are you going to drink it yourself, or should I force it down?"

Gang shuddered, snapping back to reality in panic.

What the hell had he experienced in prison? He had entered a frustrated, useless fool, and emerged a madman, a devil!

He began to regret doing the bidding of that bitch Li Ya and offending this Evil God!

The enchanting woman came to her senses from her shock, screaming while clutching her head, "It's not my fault, don't kill me, don't kill me!"

Her screams were piercing, and fearful of provoking Zhou Yang's nerves, and that the devil might lose his sanity in a frenzy, Gang slapped the woman unconscious.

On his knees and bowing deeply, Gang squeezed out a smile ingratiatingly.

"Zhou Yang, no, Mr. Zhou, it's all a misunderstanding. Take this one million with you. On top of that, I'll add another half a million as an apology. Tomorrow, I will go to your parents' door myself to ask for forgiveness!"

Zhou Yang sneered, "Don't misunderstand; you broke my father's leg, and I came here today to take your legs!"

Gang's heart squeezed tight, and his legs gave out, he knelt down to beg for mercy:

"Mr. Zhou, I'm just working for Li Ya!"

"Li Ya tricked you into jail for her, seized your ten billion fortune, and even drove your parents to death's door, worse than pigs or dogs, more venomous than snakes and scorpions!"

"She also said you have an extremely high business talent, that she must wring out your last dime, to ensure you never have the chance to rise again!"

"Mr. Zhou, there's a head for a grievance, a debtor for a debt, please spare me!"

"This top-grade beauty too, I'll give her to you, have your fun with her..."

Zhou Yang snorted with laughter, "I'll naturally settle my accounts with Li Ya. As for your legs, I'm taking them today!"

Seeing that pleas were useless, Gang steeled his heart and gritted his teeth, "Do you know whose turf this is? If you dare to lift a hand here, I guarantee you'll regret it for the rest of your life!"

The sound had barely faded when a coarse, authoritative voice came from outside.

"Who dares to cause trouble in my club, tired of living?"

Gang was suddenly elated, stood up abruptly, and pointed at Zhou Yang with gritted teeth, "Tonight, I swear to make your life worse than death!"

Hong Sanbao entered with his men, striding in.

Seeing the shattered door and the blood everywhere, shockingly red, his heart was taken aback. To dispatch seven or eight burly men so cleanly and adeptly, this man was no ordinary expert!

Zhou Yang stood his ground, not turning to look.

Bowing deeply, Gang addressed him with extreme respect, "Sir Bao, I'm Little Gang, I had the honor of toasting you at the old master's birthday banquet."

"Little Gang?" Hong Sanbao frowned slightly, not remembering, and asked, "What happened?"

Gang pointed at Zhou Yang, his teeth practically grinding, "This son of a bitch crippled my brothers, forced me to drink piss, and wants to cripple my legs! Sir Bao, he doesn't put you in his eyes at all, you have to stand up for me!"

He believed that the face-saving Sir Bao would surely make Zhou Yang's life a living hell!

Hong Sanbao sized up the figure before him, feeling a slight familiarity, and snorted coldly:

"Kid, you're the first one who dares to cause trouble on my Hong Sanbao's turf. You've broken my rules, and if I don't use you to establish my authority, I fear I won't be able to control the scene in the future! Men! Cripple him!"

At his command, Hong Sanbao's men surged in from the entrance.

"Sir Bao, have you forgotten your brother so soon?"

Zhou Yang said as he turned around, giving Hong Sanbao a confident smile.

"Brother Zhou Yang, it's you!" Hong Sanbao exclaimed with delight, "If there's anything you need, just give your brother a word, and I'll make sure it's done beautifully for you. There's no need for you to take action yourself."

What… What?

Zhou Yang was on brotherly terms with Sir Bao…

Gang's eyes trembled, his smile suddenly frozen, his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground with a thud, completely plunging into despair.

Zhou Yang briefly explained the situation.

Hong Sanbao exploded with rage, pointing at Gang and grinding his teeth:

"In my life, I, Hong Sanbao, have done few good deeds, but the one thing I cannot tolerate is the insult to someone else's parents! You dared to break my brother's father's leg and even had the gall to make my brother drink urine?"

"Sir Bao, Mr. Zhou, I was wrong, please spare my life!" Gang knocked his head on the ground, begging for mercy.

"Men, prepare another ten cups of high-quality beer, I'll make sure he's well-fed!" commanded Hong Sanbao.

His subordinates grinned from ear to ear, quickly prepared ten large cups, filling and lining them up neatly on the coffee table.

Gang wailed and begged for mercy, but it was useless.

Hong Sanbao waved his hand forward.

Four burly and fierce subordinates stepped forward, pinned Gang to the couch, and poured the beer down his throat cup by cup.

After the eleventh cup, Gang's belly was so distended it seemed it might burst; he was pinned to the ground, and his legs were snapped like twigs.

Crack!

A sharp and piercing sound rose as Gang threw back his head and screamed, his veins bulging before he quickly passed out.

With the debt of his father's humiliation and pain settled, Zhou Yang finally felt some of the anger inside him dissipate. He dropped the steel rod, cupped his hands towards Hong Sanbao, and said, "Thank you, Sir Bao, for lending a hand."

"You saved my dad; your dad is like my dad. From now on, whoever dares to trouble our elders, I'll flay their skin! Tonight's troubles are on me, my brother. Relax, no need to worry about anyone causing trouble. Let's go to the Supreme Private Room, we won't return until we're drunk!" Hong Sanbao laughed heartily.

"My dad is injured, I need to take care of him. Next time, it's my treat!" Zhou Yang apologized.

"It's a deal, next time, we drink till we drop!" Hong Sanbao laughed boldly.

Zhou Yang said his goodbyes to Hong Sanbao, carrying a case full of money, and left the Heaven on Earth Club.

His cell phone rang.

Zhou Yang took out his phone, his heart skipped a beat, and he answered the call.

"Congratulations on getting out of prison."

"You didn't call me just to congratulate me on my release, did you?"

"Three years ago, you were a billionaire CEO, it's a pity that now you're a convict with nothing, not even a place to live. Us being together would only be a joke to others. Come over tomorrow to finalize our divorce."

"I became a convict with nothing, thanks to you, didn't I? You swallowed up my company, abused my parents, and you still have the nerve to talk to me with such haughty arrogance?"

As all of Zhou Yang's illusions shattered, he firmly believed that his deep affection had been wasted, ultimately leaving him with nothing!

"Oh? It seems you're still not willing to let go of the company. Fine, come to the company tomorrow, I'll give you a fair chance to compete!"

Li Ya said indifferently, then hung up the phone.

Zhou Yang stood still for a long time, clenching his teeth, "Wait for it, I will take back everything I've lost!"
