Reborn as Tycoon's Wife in the Countryside-Chapter 478 - 389 Blindfold method

Zhi Shangfei listened to their conversation and was nearly enraged to death.

"A bunch of ungrateful wretches, she’s just a woman, and a frail-looking one at that, without a bit of flesh on her. So many of you are scared of just one woman, it’s laughable."

Just as he was about to rebuke them loudly, a sharp pain in his waist constantly reminded him of what had just happened, how this woman had kicked him away like a giant just moments before.

Strength like hers could only be possessed by the legendary Dragon King.

The Dragon King, though they had never seen him, was a name they’d heard, the number one figure in the Imperial Capital’s underworld, immensely strong, a veritable Hercules.

It was said that in the Imperial Capital, no one was his match.

Anyone who challenged him was incapacitated with a single move, utterly terrifying.

Recalling the recent events, wasn’t it very similar to the legendary tales about the Dragon King?

"Who are you, and what is your relationship with the Dragon King?" If this woman really had any connection to the Dragon King, who would dare to touch her, she’d be doing well not to strike back at others.

"Dragon King? Who is that? I don’t know him," Xiaofeng drew from the lesson that the chubby fellow had learned and denied any connection outright.

The influence of the Dragon King in the underworld was not minor, and if she admitted any link to him, countless persons would come seeking confirmation.

Thus, denial was the best policy.

In fact, she truly had no association.

She didn’t even know whether the person was round or flat, young or old.

"You really don’t know him?" Zhi Shangfei wasn’t quite sure, her skills did indeed match the legend very closely.

The Dragon King was said to be a man, not very old and very tall. Although the woman in front of him was young, she wasn’t tall enough to be the Dragon King himself.

"If I were one of the Dragon King’s people, would I be hiding it? I would’ve proudly announced it to the world, to spare myself the trouble of you seeking me out one by one." If she really had ties with the Dragon King, simply dropping his name would deter anyone from troubling her here.

Zhi Shangfei thought it over and saw the logic; cradling his sore waist, he said, "We’ll let you off today, but remember to have the money ready. We’ll come collect it next time."

"What, so you’re saying you want to fight again?" Xiaofeng frowned upon hearing his words.

She wondered if she had been too gentle in her approach if they were still thinking about getting money from her.

"No, no, of course not," the other brothers quickly waved their hands: "Brother Fei didn’t mean that, right, Brother Fei?"

Zhi Shangfei was speechless at his cowardly brothers; he wasn’t afraid, despite being the injured one, so what were they afraid of?

But since they seemed anxious to leave, he coughed dryly, "Seeing as you’re so young and not from around here, we’ll let this protection fee slide for now. But you better watch out, if you see us again, we won’t be as easy to talk to as today."

Halfway through speaking, he winced, "Hey, can’t you see I’m injured? Are you all dead or something?"

His brothers quickly supported him, or rather, carried him out, as if there was some ferocious beast inside that they feared.

"Brother Fei, you didn’t see how she kicked; she didn’t even put much force into it, just a light hop, and you flew several meters."

"Yeah, yeah, if she had put some strength into it, all of us together wouldn’t have stood a chance against her."

"Do you think she could be one of the Dragon King’s people?"

"I think it’s very likely, or maybe she’s the Dragon King. None of us have ever seen the Dragon King, we only know he’s incredibly strong, an ordinary person doesn’t stand a chance. But we don’t even know if the opponent is male or female, so it’s not impossible that she is the Dragon King."

"Whether she is or isn’t, we’d better stay away from her in the future."

"No shit," Zhi Shangfei grew even more annoyed listening to their talk.

"What’s this about losing face and emboldening others? These little bastards... don’t forget, we were hired to make trouble here. We didn’t teach her a lesson, and I ended up hurting myself; this is a business loss."

"Brother Fei, there must be someone wanting us as targets, who knows who it is, too despicable. Just think, if she used a bit more force, you’d be dead; geez, Brother Fei, the person who placed the order doesn’t want us to take her down, but to have her take us down; that’s evil."

Truly first-rate evil.

That got him thinking, "Ow, ow, help me get some medicine quick, it’s so painful."
