Before Da Diao could respond, Jiang Cheng aimed right at his face that had just turned around and smashed against it with his own forehead - centred right at the nose bridge.

Gu Fei suddenly felt his own nose begin to tinkle faintly.

Immediately after, Jiang Cheng grabbed Da Diao by the collar and harshly pushed him to the side; he stumbled and fell into the arms of the two people who stood behind him.

The few people who had their heads down and were focused on beating up Li Baoguo soon realized that someone had sneak attacked them, swearing, they quickly recollected themselves through the momentary chaos and turned their attention to Jiang Cheng.  

"Fuck! The damn do you want?" Someone swore, with one hand raised, he swung a fist right toward Jiang Cheng.

To Gu Fei's surprise, Jiang Cheng did not even bother to dodge. He charged straight toward the fist and allowed it to graze past the corner of his eye before landing his own fist heavily upon the other's left eye.

And just like that, these people who were still swimming in confusion were completely infuriated. They collectively gave up on Li Baoguo, who had shrunk into a ball on the ground, and flew toward Jiang Cheng with raised fists.

Gu Fei scrunched his eyebrows, looking around to find that the floor was quite clean - if Jiang Cheng couldn't hold on for too long and he was to help, there wasn't even a brick in sight.

"Don't hit!" Li Baoguo held his head while scrunched on the ground and screamed, "Stop hitting!"

Those people who dove toward Jiang Cheng didn't bother to acknowledge him. Though no one had any weapons on them, they had large builds - a fist thrown by them was quite something to endure.

One, two, three, four, Gu Fei slowly counted, there were four people circling Jiang Cheng. There was also one who couldn't squeeze in and instead jumped around outside the invisible ring.

But before this person could jump a third time, someone already flew out from the circle and landed on the ground.

He was kicked out by Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng soon dashed out and aimed one foot right toward the stomach of the guy on the floor.

"Fuck!" The blood flowing from Da Diao's face was smeared all across his face. While screaming and jumping up, he threw a kick onto Jiang Cheng's back; his posture was unseemly, yet it was full of power.

Jiang Cheng stumbled forward quite a few steps before eventually coming to a full stop and raising his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth.

He turned around to see Da Diao running up to build momentum for a second kick. Jiang Cheng stood still, and when Da Diao jumped up, he suddenly leaned forward, body charging forward with his arm aiming right at Da Diao's... da diao.

Da Diao couldn't even make a sound and just like that, he fell to the ground, gasping with his mouth wide open - a face full of searing pain.   

Gu Fei lifted his glasses, if he saw correctly, Jiang Cheng probably didn't hit right on the 'spot' with this blow, otherwise, Da Diao would have probably fainted from pain by now.

Did he miss accidentally, or was it that even in a situation like this, Jiang Cheng could still control his temperament and not cross the line?

But due to the fact that Da Diao's posture was overtly tragic, his buddies - Two, Three, Four, Five Diao[2] - were caught in momentary hesitations.

This is how these people are. When beating up someone like Li Baoguo, they all acted as if they were courageous warriors, but once they come across someone hardcore, they instantly become cowards. Afraid of going one on one, yet even if the whole myriad was to be dispatched, they would still have to wait for someone to take the lead.
