Chapter 269: Chapter 228: Superpower ’Manufacturing Iron Rods

"Since you chose the second option, I guess you won’t mind if we cripple another one of your hands!"

"Huh? Add a hand? Uh... I don’t mind. Go ahead!" Lin Li said, the smile on his face never wavering.

"Good. Kid, your arrogant attitude has completely pissed me off. I hope you’re not going to be crying and begging me for mercy later."

The bald man with the large gold chain said to Lin Li in anger. Then, he gave his two underlings an order, "Get him! Cripple his right leg and right hand."

The man with a dragon tattoo on his left arm and the man with a tiger tattoo on his right arm had already been getting impatient.

Now, upon hearing the bald man’s order to attack, they immediately mobilized the Spiritual Energy from their Dantians, channeling it to their hands. Then, pushing off the ground, they leaped at Lin Li.

’First Rank Initial Stage... So weak!’

Lin Li used his Perception to sense the faint Spiritual Energy Wave emanating from the man with the dragon tattoo and the man with the tiger tattoo, and he instantly knew their level of strength.

Facing the two thugs leaping at him, just as they were about to make contact, Lin Li leaned back, planted his feet, and jumped backward, easily dodging their attack.

"Where do you think you’re going?!" The man with the dragon tattoo and the man with the tiger tattoo thought Lin Li was trying to flee and bellowed at him.

They immediately gave chase, but the moment they did, they discovered that Lin Li, who had just jumped back, wasn’t running away. Instead, after landing, he closed the distance and charged toward them.

BANG.

The first to be hit was the hot-tempered man with the tiger tattoo on his right arm.

Unable to dodge in time, he was struck in the waist by a whipping kick from the charging Lin Li.

"Ahhh..." The waist is a vulnerable part of the human body. Struck in the waist by Lin Li’s whipping kick, the man with the tiger tattoo immediately let out a shrill scream.

He was sent flying by the powerful kick, smashing into a stone pillar in the parking garage. After landing, he clutched his waist, wailing in agony, unable to stand no matter how hard he tried.

"Bastard."

Seeing his companion taken out with a single kick, the man with the dragon tattoo’s eyes turned red with anger. He swung a fist glowing with faint golden Spiritual Light straight at Lin Li’s face.

SLAP.

With a blank expression, Lin Li casually waved his hand as if swatting an annoying fly, effortlessly batting away the dragon-tattooed man’s furious blow.

"Ugh..."

Not expecting his furious punch to be deflected so easily, the man with the dragon tattoo’s momentum faltered.

Just as he was about to retreat to create distance and prepare another attack, a foot solidly connected with his stomach.

BANG.

Lin Li kicked the dragon-tattooed man, sending him flying. The force of the kick launched him six or seven meters away.

He tumbled across the ground for several rotations before finally coming to a stop when he hit a stone pillar.

"BLAARGH..."

The man with the dragon tattoo felt as if his internal organs had been rearranged and couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

Then, he curled up like a freshly boiled large lobster, his face beet red, clutching the spot where Lin Li had kicked him and wailing in agony.

"My bad, I didn’t control my strength..." Lin Li said, looking at the miserable-looking dragon-tattooed man with a completely insincere apology.

"..."

The bald man with the large gold chain, who hadn’t moved yet, watched as Lin Li took out his two underlings in the blink of an eye. Veins bulged on his forehead, and he clenched his jaw so hard that his teeth made a grinding sound.

This showed just how much rage had built up inside him.

"Hey, weren’t you going to cripple one of my hands and one of my legs? Hurry up!

What are you waiting for? It’s getting late, and I have to get home!"

Lin Li looked at the bald man, whose rage was boiling over, his eyes looking like they were about to shoot fire.

While urging the man to hurry up and attack in a mocking tone, Lin Li’s hands weren’t idle. He extended his right hand, put his four fingers together, and beckoned him forward.

"Kid, you’re fucking courting death..." The bald man was completely enraged. He roared at Lin Li, and a Spiritual Energy Wave of a First Rank High Stage erupted from his body.

A faint golden Spiritual Light emerged on the surface of the bald man’s body, and a ferocious aura washed over Lin Li.

’Hm? First Rank High Stage. I didn’t expect this guy to have this much strength.’

"You bastard, how dare you hurt my brothers like this! I’m going to cripple all four of your limbs..." the bald man said viciously to Lin Li, his eyes filled with a murderous glint.

Before he could even finish speaking, Lin Li saw the faint golden Spiritual Light on the man’s hand surge.

Then, a black metal rod quickly materialized in his hand.

"Oh? This guy even awakened a Superpower..." Lin Li remarked, looking at the black iron rod the bald man held, which was created using his Superpower.

"Hey, with a Superpower for Manufacturing Iron Rods, couldn’t you just make money selling scrap metal? Why do you have to do these shady, illegal things?"

"..." Staring viciously at Lin Li, the bald man’s ferocious aura faltered for a moment when he heard the question. Then, he exploded in a tirade of curses, "Scrap metal my ass! I’m not a fucking junk collector..."

Lin Li might have been good-tempered, but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t get angry after being repeatedly cursed at to his face.

The instant the words left the bald man’s mouth, Lin Li charged him.

They were only six or seven meters apart. For Lin Li, who had just broken through to Second Order High Rank, he could cross that small distance in the blink of an eye with a full burst of speed.

The bald man was only at First Rank High Stage. Not to mention the vast difference in their cultivation levels, there was also a huge gap in their reaction speeds.

From his perspective, Lin Li vanished in the blink of an eye, reappeared right in front of him, and raised his right fist to strike.

BANG.

The bald man didn’t have time to be shocked by Lin Li’s incredible speed. Facing the attack, he instinctively raised the iron rod he’d made with his Superpower to block the punch.

As a result, Lin Li’s fist, which glowed with a faint golden Spiritual Light, smashed directly into the iron rod, carrying it along to crash into the bald man’s face.

The immense force instantly bent the iron rod. Yellowish teeth and bright red blood spewed from the bald man’s mouth and nose.

"Ahhh..."

Sent flying by the punch, the bald man hit the ground and rolled five or six meters, leaving scattered teeth and spots of blood on the floor.

That one emotional punch from Lin Li instantly extinguished the man’s rage.

The bald man clutched his battered cheek and spat a bloody wad onto the ground. Then, unable to bear the piercing pain, he started screaming his head off.

The agonized screams of the three men echoed endlessly throughout the dim underground parking garage.

A few passersby who had come to get their cars saw the situation and shrank back in fear.

Then, someone quickly pulled a phone from their pocket and called the police.
