Chapter 372: Chapter 372 Betting with Yan Pianpian (Fifth update)
When the gunmen began firing at Huang Xiaolong from all sides of the lawn, a singular thought surfaced in everyone’s minds, — “It’s over… everything is over.”

Yes, there were more than a hundred gunmen, armed with Desert Eagles, AK47s, submachine guns, shotguns … every weapon imaginable.

This level of firepower, it’s not an exaggeration to say it could wipe out an army, let alone a single person, right?

“Finally … finally put an end to this kid!” The old patriarch of the Gao Family, feeling tremendously relieved, was also filled with a sense of vengeful pleasure. “No doubt you’re a demon, but so what? You’re still going to die! If we knew beforehand, we would’ve just shot you straight from the start, thus avoiding such heavy losses … Humph! From now on, I swear to hunt down your family and torture them to death one by one! I’ll make sure they are utterly wiped out!”

Yan Pianpian was at a far distance. She had intended to intervene, but it was too late now. Besides, with her strength, she was incapable of saving Huang Xiaolong. All she could do was watch silently, feeling an unusual sense of loss and desolation… ‘What a pity, this man had unparalleled power… Just his physical strength alone was enough to sweep away anything… Not to mention that he was also a martial arts Grandmaster, and had cultivated True Qi within his body. You could say he was both internally and externally proficient… But to be annihilated by the Gao Family like this, it truly isn’t worth it.’

Yan Pianpian was also filled with rage.

Although Huang Xiaolong had greatly humiliated her, they were both martial arts practitioners alike. Now that Huang Xiaolong was about to be killed by modern firearms, it made Yan Pianpian somewhat mournful.

The thoughts of all these people lasted only a fleeting moment, quick as a spark.

But in the center of the lawn…

Everyone saw Huang Xiaolong’s body began to distort strangely. Suddenly, his entire body became soft and boneless like a noodle, allowing many of the bullets to just graze past him!

In the same moment, a gusty stream of air emanated from Huang Xiaolong’s body!

Some of the bullets couldn’t even penetrate this air barrier and were actually suspended in mid-air!

The next moment!

“Roar!!!!!”

Huang Xiaolong roared quietly!

His roar carried the force to move mountains and rivers!

With a full-body shudder, the air exploded, causing countless bullets to be sent flying back!

Plop~~~~~

Around the lawn, many of the gunmen were hit by their own bullets resulting in punctured bodies, splattering blood, and howls of anguish before they fell down dead!

This shocking turn of events caused Yan Pianpian and the Gao Family spectators on the stand to nearly bulge their eyes out!

What was happening before their eyes was completely overthrowing human understanding!

Even Yan Pianpian, the martial arts grandmaster, was nearly stupefied.

She can dodge bullets, even use Protective True Qi to block bullets, but that’s with small-caliber pistols firing just a few bullets at most.

With such concentrated firepower, her Protective True Qi would be instantly shredded. Yet, Huang Xiaolong dodged as if it was casual chatter, like he was dancing. He even reflected some of the bullets back, causing serious casualties on the enemy’s side!

“He… He’s not human!” Even with Yan Pianpian’s background, vision, and practice level, she couldn’t help but develop admiration towards Huang Xiaolong!

Yes, it was admiration! A wholehearted, prostrating admiration!

But the next moment, something occurred that made Yan Pianpian even more frantic…

He disappeared!

Huang Xiaolong had somehow vanished in broad daylight, under the watchful eyes of everyone!

It was as if he had evaporated!

A few seconds later, the gunfire ceased abruptly.

The gunmen all stared open-eyed at the empty lawn.

“What… What’s going on?” The old patriarch of the Gao Family felt a chill run down his spine. The events of today were beyond comprehension, like a dream!

Quiet!

Peaceful!

The breeze blew, stirring the grass.

Then when…

Boom~~~~~

The wind rises!

A whirlwind rushes directly to the edge of the lawn, then, a group of gunmen’s limbs appear twisted and weirdly broken!

Immediately after, a series of muffled noises, their bodies were blasted away, spouting blood mid-air, when they fell to the ground, they were already rigid corpses!

Huang Xiaolong did not want to waste True Qi blocking bullets, so he simply chanted an invisibility curse. After killing a group of gunmen, he picked up a submachine gun from the ground and began shooting casually.

The gunmen at the edge of the lawn were shot down one after another, falling like straws in a pool of blood.

This was an enemy that could not be fought with human power!

Killing him was like dreaming!

The surviving gunmen and mercenaries, fearfully abandoned their weapons and fled frantically. This was a field where a demon was mass killing, the only thing they could do was to escape with all their might.

Obviously, Huang Xiaolong would not give them any chance. He kept picking up weapons from the ground and firing. One by one, lives were being ended.

A few minutes later, the gunfire gradually stopped, and the people around the lawn were all dead.

Huang Xiaolong gradually reappeared.

He threw the gun in his hand on the ground, a playful and evil smile appeared on his face, he strode towards the main platform.

At this moment, on the main platform, the Gao Family members were shrinking like quails, trembling, and watching Huang Xiaolong with terrified eyes. The desperate disaster seemed to have drained their courage to escape!

Their confidence, arrogance, and superiority had all been shattered by Huang Xiaolong’s methods!

All that was left was despair!

“Wait~~~~” Yan Pianpian stabilised her emotions, took a few steps, and came to Huang Xiaolong’s side, looking at him with horrified eyes.

“Oh? You want to save the Gao Family?” Huang Xiaolong smirked, his eyes swiftly scanned Yan Pianpian’s exquisitely charming body.

Yan Pianpian felt a chill run through her body, as if she was naked and completely exposed to Huang Xiaolong’s gaze. “Don’t misunderstand, I don’t have a deep relationship with the Gao Family…I won’t risk my life to defend them… but… are you really going to annihilate the Gao Family now?”

“The head of the Gao Family tried to kill my whole family, hehe…I hate being threatened with my family. Since he wishes my family dead, I have no choice but to destroy his clan. An eye for an eye, right~~~” Huang Xiaolong stated matter-of-factly.

“But…wait… have you considered the consequences of annihilating the Gao Family today?” Yan Pianpian implored earnestly.

“Consequences? What kind of consequences could there be?” Huang Xiaolong seemed baffled.

“You! You’re simply unreasonable! Indeed, you are very strong, you’re powerful beyond comprehension. But even then, you can’t hide the truth all by yourself…there are too many people present today. You creating a massacre, this matter, will definitely get out!” Yan Pianpian’s expression became increasingly severe. “Many people support you, but that doesn’t mean they will tolerate you slaughtering thousands! Before this, the people you killed were mostly desperadoes, fugitives, assassins…you exterminating them was akin to eradicating evildoers for the common good, there was still room for maneuvering, and even then, it could be covered up with the help of my Yan Family.”

“But. I dare say, today, as long as you annihilate the Gao Family, you will no longer have a foothold in this vast world!” Yan Pianpian was not threatening Huang Xiaolong, she was stating a fact.

“Pfft~~~~~ why so serious?” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “Hahahaha~~~~~I will destroy the Gao Family today and won’t attract any trouble afterwards. Believe it or not?” Huang Xiaolong smirked.

“That’s impossible!” Yan Pianpian’s face darkened. “You’re clearly daydreaming! As soon as the Gao Family is destroyed today, you will become the target of public criticism tomorrow. Even if you kill all the people present today to silence them, you can’t avoid the inevitable! You can’t hide the truth!”

“Well, since you don’t believe me, how about we make a bet?” Huang Xiaolong was nonchalant. “Now I’m going to wipe out the Gao Family, and then I will handle aftermath in my own way. Tomorrow, I’ll sleep peacefully at home without anyone troubling me.”

“Humph! Who do you think you are?” Yan Pianpian sneered.

Yan Pianpian did not believe at all that Huang Xiaolong could tamp down the aftermath of annihilating the Gao family! To be straightforward, even her Yan Family, an ancient clan from Beijing, would be punished for such an act, let alone escape unscathed!

“Would you dare to bet? If you lose, you have to obediently become my maid, serve me tea and warm my bed, how about it?” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.

“What a joke! Is there anything I wouldn’t dare to bet?” Yan Pianpian scoffed. “If you can really tamp this down, I, Yan Pianpian, will serve you tea and warm your bed! Not to mention being a maid, I’d even be a cow or a horse for you!”

“Good! It’s a deal! You are a Martial Arts Grandmaster, I presume you won’t back out of your words. That will affect your martial spirit.” Huang Xiaolong was excited, muttered to himself, “I’ve already got the purple ghost and the ghost king as my maids, and now, getting a Grandmaster as a maid, it is really fun…”

That being said, Huang Xiaolong continued walking towards the platform.

“You… You don’t come over! I… I Gao Family… I Gao Family has… has some connections… in Beijing… you dare… you dare to harm us… you’ll find it hard to make an escape!” The Gao Family’s patriarch watched Huang Xiaolong in utter horror.

“Hehe, today, I will personally send you to report in the underworld… you should feel very honored…” Huang Xiaolong’s smile was brighter than sunshine!
