Ace of the Dragon Division

Chapter 395: Next Time, It Will Be Our Turn!

The Little Joker looked at the dagger inside his body in disbelief. As Xu Cheng twisted the blade, blood began leaking out.

Xu Cheng obviously wouldn’t tell the Little Joker that he was just acting for the first two rounds.

The Little Joker wasn’t stupid at all either, so he wouldn’t easily believe that Xu Cheng wouldn’t have any tricks up his sleeves after blindfolding his eyes. So, he tested him twice and he was being careful enough. For the final attack, he even covered Xu Cheng’s entire upper body with his cloak to interfere with anything that Xu Cheng could use to locate him, including Xu Cheng’s ears.

Under all these preconditions, the Little Joker confidently delivered the fatal blow, but Xu Cheng could actually see everything this whole time! He had deliberately put himself into a passive and disadvantaged state, and then immediately turned the tables around!

When the sharp pain came from his abdomen, a painful expression appeared on the Little Joker’s face. He suddenly shouted in anger and the sheer force directly blew Xu Cheng away. And as Xu Cheng flew away, his blade left the Little Joker’s body as well and tore the wound open even more. The Little Joker couldn’t help but stumble a few steps back and almost half-kneeled onto the ground, with one hand covering his abdomen to help stop the blood that was gushing out.

Xu Cheng also took quite a bit of damage earlier from that palm strike so he fell onto his back. Turning his head around, he smiled at the Little Joker and said, “You deceived the world, but you couldn’t deceive your suspicious mind. You probed me twice, why didn’t you just keep on probing me and kill me that way? When you thought you could kill me the third time, I was also probing you. In fact, you don’t deserve to be a Joker, you are too old; wouldn’t it be better to just live a peaceful retirement life at M Nation? Don’t you know the danger in Huaxia, a country that no mercenaries in the world dare to enter? You actually dared to come back? Then just come back to your roots and stay forever.”

Then, all channels in the entire base opened and more of Dragon Division members began popping up on all sides.

They intended to finish them off when they were severely injured!

When the four remaining demons saw this and looked back to their boss who still couldn’t get back up, they knew he was very badly injured! But, Xu Cheng was also lying down, and both couldn’t put out another strike. It was obvious that both were severely wounded.

The Little Joker bled out too much as the dagger directly penetrated his internal organs, and with his old age, he knew that he had lost most of his fighting power at this time. There was a burning rage in his heart regretting that he couldn’t destroy the Dragon Division with his own hands! He didn’t know how much longer he could live, and he just lost the best opportunity he had! Never did he expect that a new Division Master would emerge!

He roared angrily at the sky!

The four demons directly backed away from the Sky Kings and retreated to the Little Joker’s side, carrying him and fleeing back towards the van.

One of the demons, Belphegor very cleverly rushed towards Xu Cheng, wanting to take his life when he was down. If Xu Cheng could, he would’ve gotten up already, so it was obvious that he was already at his limit and was completely vulnerable.

“Protect the Division Master!”

Bei Shan and the others all blocked in front of Xu Cheng as the three demons carried the Little Joker into the van.

Belphegor was about to release some poisonous gas and also seize the opportunity to take off Xu Cheng’s mask to see his true identity. Bei Shan was taken aback and he immediately threw himself in, willing to breathe in the poisonous gas himself as he threw Xu Cheng out of there. If the Dragon King’s identity gets exposed, Xu Cheng would be in danger!

After seeing that the chance was gone as Xu Cheng was out of range and protected by the Ace of Hearts and the others and that the other demons already started the car and was about to go, Belphegor directly smashed a bottle of poison onto the ground.

The grey smoke permeated outwards, and Bei Shan immediately jumped out of there too. “The gas is poisonous, everyone back away!”

Bei Shan also stumbled forward a few steps as he landed, white foam began coming out of his mouth since he breathed in a little of the poison. Some members immediately jumped to his side and carried him to safety.

“Get me a sniper rifle!” Xu Cheng struggled to get up and said to the other members.

Very soon, a sniper rifle was brought to Xu Cheng’s hand, and he directly took aim at that van that was still within a kilometer of distance from him. In the scope, he activated his penetrating vision and locked onto the Little Joker’s head. Then, he pulled the trigger.

A loud bang sounded in the night, and the bullet passed through the air, pierced the bullet of the back window and flew towards Little Joker’s head. Demon Belphegor blocked the bullet with his own body and fell down.

When Xu Cheng wanted to fire again, the car had already left the effective range.

“Chase after them!” the Ace of Hearts shouted.

Xu Cheng said weakly, “Don’t, just let them go. Even if you guys catch up to them, you won’t be able to beat them, so you would only be courting death! Don’t provoke them anymore, or they might just go all out and do something crazy to the city if they can’t leave anyway. They won’t stay here any longer than they have to. The Little Joker’s severely injured, they would only go back to their base and then make plans for later.”

The Ace of Clovers: “But what if they return again?”

Xu Cheng bitterly laughed. “You think the Little Joker’s immortal? He’s already in his 80s, and since he failed so miserably this time, he already lost his time. Hurry, carry Bei Shan in and treat him!”

After Xu Cheng was carried in, he didn’t allow anyone to touch him anymore, including those doctors and researchers. He was afraid that the secret of his body would be exposed and that he would be treated as a monster. The secret must only be known by himself! The others saw how determined he was so he just let him be and arranged a room for him to rest.

When Xu Cheng got up, it was already midnight. He saw Bei Shan sitting by his window. Xu Cheng’s face was still a bit pale, but he had recovered a bit of his energy.

“How are you doing now?” Xu Cheng asked Bei Shan.

“Just got detoxified, but I still have to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation,” Bei Shan said to him from a wheelchair with an IV drip set up.

Xu Cheng asked again, “What about the Ace of Spades? And the other brothers, were they injured?”

“They were all fine, not dead, just a lot of them were injured and they are recovering well now.” Bei Shan looked at Xu Cheng and asked, “Is the Little Joker strong?”

Xu Cheng nodded. “If we were to compete purely in power, I can stomp him! But this guy’s very witty. In the early stages when we engaged, he noticed that my power is too brutal so he knew to avoid my attacks head-on and unload most of my power before exchanging blows. It was very difficult for me to match his speed though, even at my prime, and I think within a hundred rounds of attacks, he can outpace me and break my defense! His internal force is very strong, and today, if I didn’t follow the routine and use unconventional strategies, I would probably be killed. His actual combat experience is very rich!”

Upon saying this, Xu Cheng rubbed his hair with both hands and said somewhat decadently, “Looks like there are still many masters in this world. Tonight, it was my first time being countered by someone that rolled with my punches and used softness to conquer strength. In the past, I always felt that those with speed and techniques still wouldn’t be my match as I could send them to hell with one brutal punch, but today, I realized that the opponents I fought just weren’t at my level and that was why I could beat them with brute strength. But tonight, this guy’s level is way above me, so he naturally had his ways to counter me.”

Bei Shan sighed, “As someone that could be the old man’s junior disciple brother, he’s obviously no simple character. But you are still young, just get up from where you fall. You were countered completely because your level in Shadow Fist isn’t as high as him. He’s already 80-years-old, he had practiced it a lot just for this trip back so you obviously couldn’t beat him right now. Don’t feel discouraged.”

Xu Cheng nodded, and then a glowing gaze burst out of his eyes, “Next time, it will be our turn to run rampant on M Nation’s territory! When I get stronger again, it will be my turn to take a stroll in the 5th Division’s territory. As the saying goes, courtesy demands reciprocity.”
