Chapter 25
The screams faded away. Tom's eyes fell on Fade again and said, "My people didn't obey the rules just now. It was my fault. As their boss, I should take the blame."
"I will pay 200,000 dollars to you on their behalf." Tom waved his hand. Immediately, someone took a bank card and passed it to Fade.
Fade didn't refuse the money he deserved. He put the bank card into his pocket and was ready to leave. He had a good impression of this gangster Tom.
Seeing Fade put away his bank card, Tom slightly raised his mouth and then said in a low voice, "I solved our mistakes. Now, you should solve your mistake, right?"
Hearing this, Fade stopped, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What do you mean?"
Tom's voice became cold and he said, "Although my people are wrong, you beat people in my place. This is you breaking my rules. And those who broke my rules must pay the price!"
Tom’ s words carried an irresistible aggressiveness, revealing the temperament of the head of the gangsters.
"So, we can't leave!" Fade's eyes darkened, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes. His body was slightly tense, which was a sign that he was about to take action.
Seeing Fade's slight movements, Tom's eyes lit up and showed an interesting look. Then he stepped forward and said loudly, "I think you are also a martial arts practitioner. I am a martial artist. So, I will give you a chance. If you can take ten moves from me, you can leave freely."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a buzz in the crowd, and all kinds of discussions broke out.
"Is Tom very powerful? I think that other guy knocked down more than a dozen security guards just now. He is not a simple man!" A person who was not familiar with Tom said in a puzzled tone.
"Security guards? Don't make me laugh. Even if a hundred of that guy comes, he's no match for Brother Tom." Someone familiar with Tom immediately said.
"One hundred. Such exaggeration. Then isn't he more powerful than a special- forces soldier?" Some people couldn't believe it.
"I don't think you know the situation at all! Who is Brother Tom? He is Uncle Long's nephew and disciple, the second-in-command in North Bay City. And Uncle Long? He is one of the top two masters in Bay City. It's nothing for them to deal with a hundred security guards."
"He's so powerful. That guy is doomed. I'm sure he won't last more than ten moves from Brother Tom." Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
"10 moves? Stop joking. I don't think he can even withstand one move. After all, those who can withstand three from our Brother Tom's attacks would have already made a name in Bay City."
Momo heard what they said and her face turned pale. She looked up at Fade, her eyes full of guilt and self-blame. "Brother-in-law, I'm sorry, I..."
Momo felt regret in her heart. If she had not been so playful and insisted on coming to the bar to make a bet with others, they would not be involved in these things.
Hearing this, Fade smiled. He rubbed Memo's head and said, "Don't worry. I'm fine. I'll take you home right away."
After that, Fade stepped forward and stood in front of Tom. He said blandly, "Go ahead!"
Tom's eyelids twitched and his eyes darkened. He shouted, "I'm coming." His whole person was poised like a giant eagle. He stretched out his hands like claws to grab Fade's chest.
His move was fierce and fast, and it was difficult for even experts to escape, not to mention the thin young man standing in front of him.
The wind howled, and Tom could almost feel the heat radiating from Fade's body. Tom had thought in his heart if he should show mercy and give this guy a way out. After all, he was impressed with his character.
Just as Tom was thinking, Fade, who had not moved at all, suddenly raised his right arm, his index finger, and middle finger. He looked forward and gently nodded. His action was like a dragonfly skimming the water weightlessly.
Seeing this, the people around started to shout.
"Is that boy stupid? He doesn't even know how to hide."
"Do you think you can dodge Brother Tom's attack as easily as you want?"
"Even if he can't avoid it, he should try to block it. What's the use of his two fingers? He's dead."
"He is going to die. There's nothing to say." "Kid, you are too arrogant. In Bay City, no one has ever dared to look down on me like this." Seeing Fade only use two fingers to deal with himself, Tom was immediately angry. He shouted and grabbed Fade's chest with his right hand.
But just as he was about to succeed, Fade's two fingers landed on Tom's right palm.
In an instant, Tom felt a twitch in his palm, and then an irresistible numbness spread through his body through his arm. Then he stood completely still, unmoving.
In the eyes of the spectators, Tom's attack was about to follow through, but it was stopped by Fade very suddenly.
Meanwhile, Tom's heart was in turmoil. He looked at Fade with shock, doubt, and enthusiasm. Because Fade's move just now seemed so simple, but it had a big name in the martial arts world... The Sky- Locking Finger.
One finger of the Sky-Locking Finger could make the opponent lose the ability to resist. The opponent's body would seem to be locked and could not move at all. He was at the mercy of others.
Tom had only heard of such profound and mysterious means from his second uncle, Jimmy Wei. As for the actual performance of it, it was unheard of. After all, this kind of skill could only be learned by masters who lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests. Even if it were the weakest disciples amongst them, Tom would not be able to afford to provoke them.
"Brother Tom!"
"Brother Tom, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother Tom, wake up!"
The voices of others woke Tom up. At this moment, Fade had already reached the door of the bar. Tom couldn't care about anything else. He rushed over and knelt down in front of Fade. He cupped his hands and said respectfully, "Tom doesn't know that you have come here, I am sorry that I offended you. Please forgive me."
Fade waved his hand and said calmly, "If you do not know, you are not guilty. You may retreat."
Tom did not retreat. Instead, he kowtowed three times and said, "Senior, please wait. I have a presumptuous request. Please help me!"
Fade sized Tom up. After a moment of silence, he said, "Tell me!"
"Thank you, senior!" Tom kowtowed three times. "I am obsessed with martial arts and have been practicing martial arts for 18 years. I hope you can take me as your disciple in view of my painstaking efforts."
" Recruiting disciples?" Fade shook his head and said, "I can't accept you as my disciple."
"Please take me as your disciple!" Tom said and suddenly kowtowed again. Blood oozed out of his forehead and stained the ground red.
