Li Yi frowned. He keenly sensed that something was wrong with the other party, especially since although the other party was pretending to be arrogant, there was a hint of panic in his eyes.
“We don’t seem to have met before, but I have a feeling you’re deliberately targeting me.” Li Yi’s tone was calm but carried an undeniable power. He deliberately slowed down his speech to gauge the other party’s reaction.
Guo Kui was taken aback by Li Yi's directness and was momentarily speechless, but he quickly regained his arrogant attitude: "Is this pharmacy your home? You're allowed in, but I'm not? Besides, so what if I'm targeting you?!"
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Qiao Ya walked over and said, "Senior, let's go!"
Li Yi looked at them but didn't find anything wrong with the other party.
"Alright, let's go!"
Li Yi and Qiao Ya left the pharmacy carrying the medicine.
It's already 9:30 pm, and it'll be too late to get back to school. The dorms close at 10 pm, and I might not be able to get in.
Li Yi said, "Xiaoya, how about we stay at the hotel instead of going back to school tonight? We can go back to school to brew the medicine tomorrow morning, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Ya blushed, feeling both apprehensive and expectant.
She glanced at Li Yi furtively and saw that his eyes were clear and serious, and he seemed to have no other intentions. She nodded gently and replied, "Okay, you've worked hard these past few days, senior. You need to get some rest."
The pharmacy was only a few hundred meters from the hotel, and the two walked to the hotel.
When they reached an alley, the gang leader Guo Kui quickly followed, and at the same time, he waved his hand, and four of his underlings surrounded Li Yi and Qiao Ya from both sides.
Qiao Ya knew from the sight of this situation that things were definitely not going to end well.
"What are you doing? Get out of here right now, or we'll call the police!" Qiao Ya shouted calmly under pressure.
However, this was the first time she had encountered such a situation, and her voice trembled slightly.
Li Yi gently patted her shoulder and said, "Xiaoya, don't worry, it's alright."
Thug leader Guo Kui: "What are you doing? Wasn't this kid very arrogant in the pharmacy just now? I'm going to break his legs now!"
Li Yi remained unfazed and said, "If I remember correctly, apart from what happened at the pharmacy just now, I haven't offended you, have I?"
Gang leader Guo Kui: "Heh, what a joke! Just because you don't offend us doesn't mean we can't offend you! Today we're going to break your legs! Brothers, let's go!"
Li Yi was furious. These five people were obviously prepared. Their actions at the pharmacy were just a coincidence. Even if there had been no conflict with them, they would have definitely jumped out and attacked him.
Li Yi quickly realized that it was probably Wang Shuai who did it, since he had yelled that he was "doomed" that day.
Since that's the case, and he's going to resort to such despicable means, then I won't be polite.
Do you really think you're so easy to manipulate?
With my system in hand, why would I be afraid of you traitors?!
It is said that in the world of martial arts, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken!
Li Yi still has 10 points of favorability, so he might as well enhance his speed again. As long as he is fast enough, how could they be his match?
"System, increase speed by 10 points."
[Ding, 10 enhancement points deducted from the host, current enhancement points: 0.]
[Enhancement Begins]
[Enhancement Complete]
In an instant, Li Yi felt a surge of heat throughout his body, and the enhancement was complete.
The system panel in my mind also updated the information accordingly:
System Level: LV2
Host Name: Li Yi
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Height: 182cm
Physical fitness: 18.5 (Adult average 8.5)
Mental state: 8.9 (adult average 8.5)
Strength: 18 (Adult average 8.5)
Speed: 28.2 (Adult average 8.5)
Available enhancement points: 0
Skills: Proficient in photography, proficient in editing, proficient in public speaking, and proficient in "fishing" (a euphemism for being unsuccessful).
Li Yi's speed is 28.2, which is more than three times the average adult speed of 8.5. In other words, his nerve and muscle reaction speed is more than three times faster than that of an ordinary person.
With the system enhancement complete, Li Yi showed no fear in the face of the thugs who were closing in on him. Instead, a calm smile appeared on his lips as he prepared to test his skills.
"Since you've come to us, don't blame me for being impolite."
Seeing this, the gang leader Guo Kui roared, "Brothers, let's go! Let's show him what we're made of!"
The thugs were prepared; each pulled out a baton and charged at Li Yi and Qiao Ya from two directions.
Li Yi looked around and saw that Guo Kui was alone, while there were four people on the other side of the alley.
Li Yi was worried that Qiao Ya would get hurt, so he had to clear one side first.
Li Yi charged at Guo Kui with his bare hands.
"Hmph! You're asking for death!"
Guo Kui swung his baton at Li Yi.
However, something horrifying happened.
He crashed into empty space.
Before he could react, in the instant he passed Li Yi, he was elbowed in the back by Li Yi.
"Ouch!" Guo Kui cried out in pain, and was about to turn around when he was punched on the head.
"I..." Guo Kui hadn't finished speaking when he felt a dizziness and collapsed to the ground.
The four thugs across the alley were enraged when they saw this.
"Avenge the boss!"
"Damn it, they actually knocked out the boss! Kill him!"
"Attack together! Don't let him get away!"
Four thugs rushed at them.
However, Li Yi was too fast, and his strength and physique completely overwhelmed them. They couldn't even scratch a hair on Li Yi's head before being defeated by him.
