C280 Qian Daloong the Pursuer of Jiang Keke

"Are you Lin Dong?"

The boy at the front inquired.

He had a decent look, donning a denim jacket with his hands in his pockets, exuding an air of arrogance.

Upon hearing his words, Lin Dong's brow furrowed slightly.

He was unsure why these individuals were seeking him out, as he didn't recognize them, but it was clear they had malicious intent.

"Step aside," Lin Dong stated coolly.

He wasn't looking for trouble, yet he wasn't intimidated by them either.

Frankly, he was confident he could overpower them single-handedly, leaving them no chance to retaliate.

But as he finished speaking, the boy's face in front of him subtly shifted.

He hadn't anticipated Lin Dong's bold response.

His initial plan was to intimidate Lin Dong with his presence, but Lin Dong's composure caught him off guard.

"Hey, you've got quite the attitude, kid. Do you know who this is?"

"This is Brother Dragon, Qian Daloong!"

"To show such defiance in front of Brother Long, you're asking for trouble!"

"Brother Dragon, just give the word, and I'll take him down for you!"

...

The entourage behind the boy echoed with loud shouts.

Qian Daloong gestured dismissively, playing the part of the elder brother, "We're not a violent bunch. There's no need to resort to violence. What would we do if someone's hands got broken?"

His followers nodded in agreement.

Qian Daloong turned his attention back to Lin Dong, "Let's be clear, Lin Dong. I am Jiang Keke's suitor. If you're wise, you'll steer clear of her. Otherwise, I can't promise you won't end up with broken limbs outside of school."

His tone was smooth and refined, yet his words were anything but friendly.

Lin Dong regarded Qian Daloong with a detached gaze.

Qian Daloong was a poser, and Lin Dong had seen right through his act.

Once he mentioned Jiang Keke's name, Lin Dong understood his motive.

But what did Jiang Keke's suitors have to do with him?

And the last thing Lin Dong appreciated was being threatened.

"Tedious," he remarked, striding forward without so much as a glance upward.

Jiang Keke had only recently arrived at Jiangyang University, and while Lin Dong might have taken a liking to her, he was a long way from making a move.

Qian Daloong, on the other hand, was blatantly looking for trouble with Lin Dong.

Given Lin Dong's social standing and perspective, he had no interest in engaging with him.

Lin Dong responded coolly and continued walking forward, which only ignited a vicious glint in Qian Daloong's eyes.

Lin Dong's disregard was misconstrued by Qian Daloong as contempt, and it only fueled his resolve not to abandon his pursuit of Jiang Keke.

Qian Daloong was instantly seething with rage!

He had hoped to intimidate Lin Dong with his entourage, but Lin Dong was unfazed.

Qian Daloong, known for his volatile temper, felt humiliated by Lin Dong's fearlessness. In a fit of anger, he reached out to grab Lin Dong, bellowing, "Kid! I said stop!"

His hand clamped down on Lin Dong's shoulder, but Lin Dong's arm remained still. He subtly shifted his back, activating the Eight Blasts technique, the Strength Reduction Golden Body, sending a jolt through Qian Daloong's hand as if it were pierced by numerous fine needles, causing him to instinctively recoil.

By then, Lin Dong had already walked past him.

The students who had been ready to block Lin Dong's path hesitated as he approached. Lin Dong merely lifted his gaze, and the chill in his eyes swept over them. The would-be blockers felt a palpable trepidation and involuntarily cleared the way, allowing Lin Dong to pass unhindered.
