The First Book: Reborn from the Fire Chapter 39 Extremely Extremely Sinister

  Many years later, Peng Zhen, who was frightened pale at the time, still couldn't understand why he had been so arrogant and impulsive back then, when he usually knew to conserve his strength and only strike with deadly force.

  The 400-meter hurdles are nothing, after all, that's my strong point. But as for fighting, I'm a complete rookie, how could I have the guts to challenge a martial arts expert?

  This strange, audacious mentality of mine is beyond his comprehension. It's as if a handsome guy with a perfect appearance and physique were to go all the way to the Arctic to pick up an Eskimo beauty, which is unthinkable. Who knows, maybe halfway there, he'd be lucky enough to become a natural ice sculpture in the Arctic!

  "Am I sure I didn't hear it wrong?!"

  This unbearable and absurd event happened to me, a normally rational person. Someone was finally unable to fall asleep after tossing and turning, and one day he couldn't help but ask me with hatred:

  "At that time you were provoking him and even arrogantly said you wanted to defeat him, except for the 400-meter hurdles, you also wanted to fight with him?"

  "Of course, I diagnosed your hearing as normal, you don't need to repeat what I said!"

  I raised an eyebrow, too lazy to bother with him, and my expression was as calm as ever. I also used my eyes to tell him that he's being nosy, you know?

  "Why say that?! Big brother! Teach me, won't you? What reason did he have to actually agree with your ignorant ravings?!"

  Someone was on the verge of tears, almost kneeling in front of me to plead, looking at me with a warm gaze and saying: "Don't you know that my admiration for you is like the Yellow River overflowing, surging..."

  "Damn... I'll knock your head off!"

  "This kid actually learned my exclusive vocabulary so well? I couldn't help but interrupt him and sneered at him:"

  "You wouldn't say that, what else would you say? Should I go up and knock my head three times, loudly telling him that if he doesn't accept me as his apprentice, I'll never get up again with such nonsense?"

  "Cough, actually... I had planned it this way from the start!"

  Someone who had been struck looked up in astonishment, his expression was like a sly man who had discovered a small treasure trove of gold, with the words "shameless" written all over his face.

  "That's your fault!"

  I smiled at him with a grin, saying gruffly:

  "Are you still using that old-fashioned movie and TV series cliché? Don't you think it's too unoriginal? Do you think someone as ruthless as 'Qiao Feng Wang' would even bother to look at it?"

  "Is your suicidal behavior a new idea?" Someone looked at me with a bit of embarrassment and a sour taste.

  "What's wrong with seeking death? If I say you're stupid, then you're stupid!"

  I knew my careless expression had almost driven someone crazy, and finally couldn't help but burst out laughing and said:

  "This is actually a kind of flattery in disguise, just like writing fantasy novels, you don't necessarily need to have good writing skills, but if your subject matter is unique and refreshing, making readers feel like they've discovered something new and exciting, then it will definitely have market value, who knows, maybe even become an overnight sensation, and from then on, rise to the ranks of the gods, becoming a top-tier figure."

  "Flattering? I'm fed up! Finding someone to issue a challenge letter for a fight is also called flattering? That prostitute can also hang a chastity sign!"

  Someone who thought they were the best at flattering others immediately turned green with envy and couldn't help but loudly jeer.

  I wasn't angry at his somewhat impolite words, but just looked at him with a sly smile and suddenly asked him:

  "Do you know what is the greatest regret of 'Qiao Yanwang' in this life?"

  "Nonsense! Of course it was because I was kicked out of the military region's special reconnaissance brigade!"

  "Heh heh, so what's his greatest wish?"

  "Don't you think it's boring? Isn't the answer obvious? It's just trying to get us into the Special Reconnaissance Unit!"

  "So are we considered his apprentices?"

  "Alas! Of course, we now have a foundation that he taught us, don't we?"

  "Hehe! You actually know all this, so I'll ask you another question!"

  My smiling eyes seem to be filled with kindness, but the words that come out of my mouth are extremely vicious.

  "Then you say if his disciples in the future can be glorious and limitless in the military special reconnaissance zone, and if they have the opportunity to overthrow those instructors who made him disgusted, isn't it equivalent to slapping those who made him quit the military special reconnaissance team a big slap in the face? Do you think he will be very happy?"

  "I'm shocked! You're so sinister!"

  Someone stared blankly, looking at me with a very strange gaze, and finally subconsciously backed away from me a few steps, as if he had something on his mind, then seemed to remember something and asked:

  "But you don't necessarily have to challenge him, can't you just ask him and get the same effect?"

  "Alas! It seems you still don't understand! With this mindset, would you rather accept a disciple who is like a grasshopper, or one who is full of fighting spirit? He can't possibly tell you to go and betray those fellow officers from the same military district's special reconnaissance unit, can he?"

  I chuckled and said with a smile:

  "A disciple of a conservative master, he must be very conventional and it's hard to imagine him doing great things in the special reconnaissance unit. But if he were to take on a disciple with a strong sense of justice and full of fighting spirit? Would his expectations not be higher?"

  After saying that, I paused for a moment and then smiled wickedly: "Besides, the simplest truth is that you know both methods can be used, so why should I be a yes-man? Isn't it more honorable to be a challenger?"

  "Amitabha Buddha, merciful Buddha, fortunately you and I are brothers! Let's pray for our common enemy first!"

  Someone finally sighed and fell to the ground, he drew a cross on his chest with a lingering fear, then stared at me fiercely and said:

  "I take back what I said at first, you're not just a little sinister, in fact, you should be extremely extremely sinister!"

  I gave a sly smile and said with great relish: "Heh heh, so-so!"

  Of course, after I finished saying the above words in a very light tone, someone's face was extremely rich in expression. He subconsciously took three steps back and finally had nothing to say, but his eyes couldn't help but give me a little bit of admiration. I felt a small sense of self-satisfaction.

  Cough, this is a later story, and it may be too early to mention now. At that time, the conversation had some joking elements in it. I declare in advance that I am not so sinister, please don't put colored glasses on me, actually I am still very kind.

  But what I never expected was that after saying the above words, it would cause someone to be so impressed by my brilliant and mighty image that they would never dare to behave recklessly in front of me again. Today's words in front of 'Qiao Yan Wang' had a double effect, which really exceeded my expectations and often made me secretly pleased...
