Demons Beside You

Bam!

 Chen Zhao walked up and punched the big guy. Everyone heard the grating sound of his fist moving through the air.

 Then, the big guy slowly fell backward and collapsed on the ground.

 “Oman?”

 “Oman, get up.”

 “Stop pretending dead. Stand up now.”

 n.o.body believed that the seemingly weak Chen Zhao could knock Oman out in one blow.

 Laurent and the bodyguards also watched in disbelief. Oman was the best fighter in the region.

 If it was just fighting, even Karim, Howard and Kane were no match for Oman.

 However, Chen Zhao had just defeated the bull in one punch.

 No matter how the crowd tried to call him, Oman did not wake up.

 “What a mean person. You sneak attacked him!”

 “Are Asians all so mean?”

 Chen Zhao shrugged. “He invited me to hit him thrice. I"ve just made one punch and he"s already down. How disappointing.”

 “It"s not a boxing tournament. Go and beat him up!” Powell shouted in anger.

 Everyone charged toward Chen Zhao. A cowboy hugged Chen Zhao, but he was immediately flung into the river.

 And then went the second and the third…

 Karim and Howard also took part in the fight, adding to the chaos.

 Although it was a mess, Chen Zhao, Karim and Howard were actually not losing.

 Nevertheless, they were being hit as well.

 They were clearly hit more often than they were able to hit others.

 Karim and Howard could not take the fight for much longer. In the end, Chen Zhao had to help them.

 “F**k off!” Chen Zhao threw another person into the water.

 “Fool, don"t throw him into the river. He"ll be uninjured when he climbs up. Punch him instead!” Laurent watched the battle anxiously.

 Bam!

 A farmer punched Chen Zhao"s face, but Chen Zhao was completely fine except for a minor wound on his lip.

 Chen Zhao returned a punch and the farmer fell unconscious at once.

 After ten minutes or so, both Karim and Howard were lying on the ground, but Chen Zhao was still standing.

 On the other side, twenty people had fallen down, most of which were due to Chen Zhao. Only a dozen people were standing.

 However, they were also somewhat injured.

 Chen Zhao did not kill anyone. After all, they were not irreconcilable enemies.

 It was like a street fight. No sane person would stab another person with a dagger.

 The dozen people did not really dare to go close to Chen Zhao. They had seen how terrifying Chen Zhao was.

 It was almost impossible to hurt Chen Zhao without a weapon.

 “Chen, beat them up! Beat all of them up!” Laurent had no intention to bury the hatchet.

 Of course, Chen Zhao had no such intention too.

 This time, instead of counterattacking pa.s.sively, Chen Zhao charged into the crowd.

 Immediately, the place was enveloped in painful groaning. None of the people were actual fighters.

 Chen Zhao could easily finish a person with one punch, although he had to be careful with his strength.

 He could neither attack too heavily nor attack too lightly.

 Chen Zhao beat the rest of the crowd up as quickly as he could.

 Howard and Karim felt that even if they were not present, Chen Zhao would have won the fight.

 What a humanoid monster…

 Why would they even provoke such a monster in the first place?

 “Old men, would you like to apologize, or be thrown into the river?”

 There was no way Chen Zhao would hit these old people. If he was slightly careless, he might very well be sued.

 Nonetheless, he could throw them into the river and nothing would happen.

 The few old ranchers and farmers looked as if they had just stepped on dog sh*t.

 Who"s this Asian?

 How could he have defeated so many people?

 Is he a Chinese?

 Does he know Kung Fu?

 Right, all Chinese know Kung Fu…

 “Alright, you win,” Powell said in indignance.

 “And?”

 “I apologize for what I have said and done.”

 There were no right or wrong in this fight, only win and loss.

 The person who won was right.

 Chen Zhao won, so he was right.

 Suddenly, the bell on a stationary fighting rod began to ring and the line went taut.

 “Chen, we have a fis.h.!.+” Laurent shouted.

 Chen Zhao rushed to the fis.h.i.+ng rod at once. He grabbed the rod and tried to pull it up.

 However, he did not manage to.

 Chen Zhao used more strength, but he still could not pull the fish up.

 The fish was really powerful!

 Was it that big guy?

 Although Chen Zhao could not pull the fish up, the fish also could not break free.

 “Come here!” Chen Zhao roared.

 Then, an enormous creature jumped out of the river, but it immediately fell back in, creating a huge wave.

 “Earl Eric! It"s Earl Eric!”

 “It"s huge…”

 “Wow, this guy could surely eat a human!”

 Everyone started to scream in excitement.

 Those who had been lying on the ground also got up on their feet.

 Everyone knew that there was an Earl Eric in the river, but not all of them had seen it, including some people who had been fis.h.i.+ng here for many years.

 Today, they were fortunate enough to see Earl Eric for themselves.

 Chen Zhao clutched the fis.h.i.+ng rod, unable to pull it.

 The fish was too powerful. With its own weight, Chen Zhao felt that it was at least a ton of force.

 The situation went into the stalemate. The fis.h.i.+ng rod had already been bent into an arc.

 As Earl Eric continued to struggle, ripples appeared constantly and the water became muddy.

 “Chen, do you need help?” Karim and Howard asked, rolling their sleeves upward.

 Chen Zhao shook his head but did not speak. He had to use all his strength to fight Earl Eric.

 Karim and Howard would only affect him instead of helping him.

 In fact, Chen Zhao and Earl Eric were not only testing their strength, but also their endurance.

 It all depended on which of them could persist till the end!

 Everyone held their breath as they watched Chen Zhao and the creature struggling in the river.

 While they looked forward to Chen Zhao pulling Earl Eric out of the water, they also hoped that Earl Eric could escape.

 They did not want Earl Eric to be caught by an outsider, especially when he was their enemy.

 Moreover, Earl Eric was also a belief and obsession for them.

 If the river lost Earl Eric, they would lose their interest.

 Everyone watched the fierce battle nervously. Laurent looked at the fis.h.i.+ng rod which had almost been bent to the maximum.

 “Chen, you can do it!”
