Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion

"Hey, babe. If you come up here, I can lie on the floor and let you do anything you want to me. I won't make a single move."

"What the hell!"

Amid their fury, the band of brothers tossed their injured companions aside and hopped into the fighting pit.

How dare he make a pass at our sister-in-law?

"Come on, come on. I'll show you rascals the strength of a true hero today."

"Get off the stage," ordered Mo Jiangye with a grim smile hanging on his face.

A cocky laugh escaped Orffa when he glanced in his direction. "You're here, huh? What do you think about sparring with me? If you win, the hot babe will be yours. Otherwise, she'll be mine for the taking."

Treading in his black boots, Mo Jiangye made his way toward the pit as he unbuttoned his coat, removed it, and dropped it to the ground. Everyone else in the pit shifted to the side to make way for him.

"Oh my god!"

"Wow! He's a stunner!

"Who is he?"

Cheers and screams came from the frenzied audience.

"Be careful, hubby," his worried wife told him.

"Hey, babe. Why don't I break all the bones in this man later as a gift to you?" Orffa let out a loud, savage laugh. "Go take a shower quickly. I'll be ready to take you back to my house in a jiffy."

The rest of the people in the pit were all livid. It was due to their Chief's presence that they barely managed to put a lid on their anger.

"Step down," Mo Jiangye spat out, his phoenix-like eyes looking all dark and cold.

At his order, everyone else retreated to the back and left the stage to him.

"I'm more good-looking, more capable, and richer than you, so it's only right that the babe should follow me home. Are you sure you still want to spar with me?"

He maintained his silence with a vague smirk.

"I could go easier on you later if you just handed the lady over to me now." Orffa went on fearlessly, throwing provocative words at his opponent.

"To be honest… Your looks can be marginally compared to mine. You'll only stand to lose out if you hurt your pretty face."

"Time's up! The match begins!" The referee suddenly blew the whistle to signal the start of the match.

He put up his guard at once, knowing what his opponent was capable of because he had sparred with him in the hall earlier.

"Bring it on, brat." As soon as he said that, he nimbly pounced on Mo Jiangye…

"AHH—"

BOOM!

He was sent flying to the surrounding railing with a hard, merciless kick of his opponent. The shocking impact even caused the metal railing to bend considerably.

The audience gasped in shock and horror at the sight.

Before he could snap out of his daze, his body was lifted and thrown to the ground. The sudden hard impact on his stomach sent excruciating pain instantly shooting through his internal organs.

There he was, lying limp on the ground before anyone could get a clear view of how his opponent fought.

As Mo Jiangye looked down at him with a terrifying chill in his eerie eyes, he lifted a foot and crushed down Orffa's stomach.

"My woman is quite a looker, huh?" he asked.

"Yep…" Beads of sweat were starting to form on Orffa's forehead due to the pain he was experiencing, but that did not stop him from raising his fist and throwing a low blow at the other man's genitals.

Mo Jiangye deftly sent another kick toward the raised fist before any damage could be done.

"Argh—" His opponent let out an agonizing scream.

"You wanna break my ribs as a gift to my woman? Ha!" He tugged his lips up eerily.

Crack!

"Is she even someone you can call 'babe'?"

BAM!

Next, before everyone's eyes, Orffa was slammed against the ground endlessly. The sickening crunch of his bones could be heard, loud and crisp, and his screams of agony did not cease for a bit.

The man, who had looked just like a ferocious, majestic lion just minutes ago, had now become a horrible sight after getting clobbered.

"Did you have lots of fun flirting with her?"

Crimson blood spurted out of his mouth.

"Didn't you wanna bed her as well?"

Crack! His ribs and all the bones in his body had also, in fact, fractured.

"What a pity! She isn't someone you can touch in this lifetime!"
