Chapter 13 Yang Zishan's Gift

The crew-cut youth was oblivious to Wu Xiaoshan's arrival, standing in front of everyone, his face twisted with malice as he stared at the young woman before him.

Surrounded by a group of punks, the woman was terrified and pretended to be loud, "What are you doing, get out of the way!"

The crew-cut punk just walked straight up to her, hooked his finger under her chin, and said lecherously, "Babe, I've taken a fancy to you. Today, I'm after more than just your money, I want you too."

The woman's body trembled, and she said, her face flushed, "You... don't you dare, or I'll call the cops!"

"Ha! No need to hold on tight, I can hold onto you just fine myself." The crew-cut youth said as he grabbed the woman and brought his face closer to hers.

Suddenly, the woman screamed in fright, struggling desperately as she shouted, "Let go of me, you scum, you'll get what's coming to you!"

As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes.

However, the crew-cut punk showed no mercy; after a wicked laugh, he dared to reach for the woman's chest.

Just then, Wu Xiaoshan finally arrived, and he roared, "Stop it, you bastards, always picking on women!"

The crew-cut youth turned his head and saw Wu Xiaoshan spoiling his plans, instantly feeling a surge of anger, "You little punk, you're really asking for it. Today Scar is going to teach you a lesson!"

After that, he waved his hand and commanded, "Brothers, this is the same son of a bitch who ambushed me last time; we can't let him get away today, take him down!"

At his words, the rest of the punks menacingly advanced towards Wu Xiaoshan.

Seeing this, the crew-cut punk sneered, "Kid, it's not too late to beg for mercy. Just kneel down and kowtow three times to me and let me smash your head in, and I'll consider calling it even."

"Heh, we'll have to see if you've got the ability!" Wu Xiaoshan stepped off the tricycle, a cold smile playing on his lips.

The face of the crew-cut youth darkened, and he urged, "Guys, get him for me!"

Watching the gang of punks charge at him, Wu Xiaoshan didn't show any fear. He activated his Qiankun Eye, and their movements immediately slowed down.

He swiftly found an opening and viciously punched the leader's nose.

This abrupt move made the other punks pause, and after exchanging looks, they said to the crew-cut youth, "Scar Brother, this guy knows kung fu!"

"Scared of what? I'm taking this guy down today no matter what!" The crew-cut youth said as he drew a cold, gleaming knife and swiftly aimed it at Wu Xiaoshan's abdomen.

"I'll take you down first!"

Wu Xiaoshan's pupils dilated, and as the crew-cut youth came near, he kicked him flying with a preemptive strike.

Immediately after, Wu Xiaoshan approached the others, and in no time, the whole gang of punks lay defeated on the ground.

"You... don't come any closer, the knife... knives don't have eyes."

Seeing Wu Xiaoshan approaching again, the crew-cut youth who had just gotten up was holding the dagger tightly, threateningly.

Wu Xiaoshan couldn't be bothered to respond. After a scornful laugh, he dashed forward in a sudden burst of speed. With a slap, he knocked the dagger from the punk's hand and pinned him to the ground with a foot.

"Big... big brother, let's talk this out, hey, gently... gently." The crew-cut youngster struggled a few times to no avail and quickly began to plead for mercy.

Wu Xiaoshan, however, applied more pressure with his foot and asked coldly, "Spit it out, where's the bag and the money you robbed that day?"

"Gone... spent it all."

"Spent it all? Then today, I'm going to cripple you!" Wu Xiaoshan's eyes hardened, and as he spoke, he kicked the crew-cut youngster's left leg fiercely.

Immediately, the crew-cut youngster screamed out in pain. Enduring the agony, he said, "Big... big brother, stop hitting me, I... I'll pay the money, rest assured, my... my dad has money, he will definitely compensate!"

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoshan's heart finally relaxed. He withdrew his foot and turned toward the lady with the electric scooter nearby, saying, "Beauty, can I borrow the rope from your bike?"

"Ah? Okay... okay!"

With the lady's help, Wu Xiaoshan proceeded to tie up the bunch of youngsters with the rope. Then he had the lady call the police, sending this group to the Wolong Town Police Station.

After giving his statement, Wu Xiaoshan informed Yang Zishan that he had caught the crew-cut youngster. She received the news and quickly arrived at the police station.

"Xiaoshan, are you alright?" As soon as Yang Zishan got out of her car, she saw Wu Xiaoshan waiting at the entrance and immediately asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Wu Xiaoshan smiled.

Little did he know, Yang Zishan was far from being reassured. She reached out to Wu Xiaoshan and examined him carefully. Only when she was sure that Wu Xiaoshan was truly unharmed did she finally put the stone down from her heart.

Afterward, Yang Zishan went into the police station. The police also notified the crew-cut youngster's family, returning the fifty thousand yuan and the handbag Yang Zishan had been robbed of in full.

"Xiaoshan, thank you so much for today. If it weren't for you, I might never have gotten this money back," Yang Zishan said gratefully, with the handbag containing the money slung over her shoulder, "If you're free now, how about I treat you to lunch?"

"No need, no need, I have to get back to the village and stay busy," Wu Xiaoshan replied with a smile, waving his hand.

Seeing Wu Xiaoshan's mind was made up, Yang Zishan thought for a moment, then took out the money from her bag and handed it to Wu Xiaoshan, saying, "Xiaoshan, you've helped Sister so much, I don't know how else to thank you. Since you helped me retrieve this money, consider it a startup fund for now. You're in need of money as well, so don't reject Sister's offer this time, okay?"

Wu Xiaoshan's heart warmed, and indeed he was in need of money; whether it was for Alchemy or setting up the Spirit Gathering Formation, he required a great deal of resources. With this money, things would definitely become more convenient for him.

"Thank you, Sister Shan, if you ever need my help in the future, just ask!"

Wu Xiaoshan didn't refuse. After pocketing the money, it suddenly occurred to him, and he took out a dark green pill and handed it to Yang Zishan, saying, "Sister Shan, you were staring hard at me just now, probably because you noticed the change in my skin. It was after taking this Skin Moisturizing Pill that I saw such change. You can try it when you get home."

Yang Zishan's eyes lit up. She skeptically accepted the Skin Moisturizing Pill, full of surprise, "Does this little pill really have such amazing effects?"

"Don't worry, Sister, if it wasn't reliable, I wouldn't dare let you take it just like that." Wu Xiaoshan smiled and after chatting casually with Yang Zishan for a few more moments, he mounted his tricycle and left.

When Wu Xiaoshan got back to Wolong Village at noon, he saw that the new tricycle had already been delivered to his house. He went straight to Qin Yufeng's front door.

Qin Yufeng was cooking at home. Seeing Wu Xiaoshan's return, she immediately said with joy, "Xiaoshan, this pill is miraculous. Just look at my skin..."

Wu Xiaoshan looked up and was instantly stunned...
