Chapter One: Mutual Destruction

  March 8th, 2039, evening, inside a luxurious suite on the 19th floor of Tianlun Pavilion Hotel.

  Although the desire has faded, there is still a lingering atmosphere in the room. Zhang Yang sat on the bed with his upper body exposed, staring at the empty pillow, and his heart was still filled with incredulity.

  He came to attend - or rather, he came to make a last-ditch effort to stop his girlfriend's wedding! The reason... he wasn't the groom!

  He and Lin Yun met in the online game "Miracle", from initial hostility to gradually becoming friends, eventually falling in love. But Lin Yun's family background is not simple, the Lin family with a fortune of over 10 billion yuan would never give their only daughter to Zhang Yang, an unknown guy!

  Although Zhang Yang is not a poor man, owning a luxurious mansion, several luxury cars, and having over tens of millions in bank deposits, making him a diamond bachelor in the eyes of ordinary women, but compared to the Lin family, he falls short by too much!

  Zhang Yang's efforts failed, and the elder of the Lin family was extremely cold to him, almost to the point of chasing him away with a broom! As for Lin Yu, she just kept crying in front of him, but refused to agree to his request to elope with her, and desperately begged Zhang Yang never to see her again.

  Zhang Yang knew that Lin Yu was a filial daughter, and her mother had threatened to die if she didn't agree to marry Liu Wei, the only son of the Liu family, whose family background was similar to that of the Lin family. In fact, their marriage should have taken place three or four years ago, but Lin Yu's constant resistance had delayed it until now. However, this time... it couldn't be delayed any longer!

  He disappeared dejectedly at Lin Yun's wedding, Zhang Yang returned to the hotel where he was staying, thinking that his beloved woman would soon become someone else's wife, and he couldn't help but feel depressed. He drank alone, got drunk, and stumbled back to his room. In a daze, he answered a phone call without hearing what the other person said. Soon after, a woman entered his room and got into bed with him.

  Zhang Yang was really drunk, and the warm and fragrant body in his arms instinctively "moved". A big battle broke out, but just halfway through, Zhang Yang's intoxication gradually wore off, and he suddenly realized that the woman under him was none other than his Chinese language teacher from university, Yu Li!

  Yu Li also barely recognized Zhang Yang, both of whom were extremely embarrassed and hastily ended the "battle". Yu Li was even more ashamed, being a mistress yet running into her former student, which made her feel unbearable, she didn't even bother to collect the money and left in a hurry.

  His chest still retained the lip gloss left by Yu Li's kiss, Zhang Yang shook his head and tried to squeeze out this woman who had a fate with him.

  Why did Yu Li give up her job as a university teacher to become a prostitute in a hotel? There may be many reasons, perhaps she thought the salary of being a teacher was too low, or maybe she encountered bad luck and was forced by her boyfriend or husband into this profession, or it's also possible that she did it to raise money for her parents' medical treatment after they contracted a terminal illness.

  Zhang Yang didn't have the extra emotions to think about her, in a moment of clarity, he was again tortured by ruthless pain, his heart only thinking of one person: Lin Yun!

  "Bang!"

  A loud crash, the door was suddenly kicked open, and two men in suits and sunglasses walked in with an air of importance, their faces cold and stern, their sharp features filled with a murderous aura.

  Right after that, a young man of medium build, dressed in a white suit, walked out from behind the two muscular men. He was quite handsome, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and had a faint smile on his face, looking very elegant.

  "Liu Wei!" Zhang Yang recognized the young man at a glance and couldn't help but grit his teeth in anger.

  A muscular man moved a chair over, and Liu Wei sat down with an air of importance, crossing his legs and saying: "You must be very curious why I didn't accompany you earlier, but instead ran here in the middle of the night?"

  "Hmph, spare the nonsense!" Zhang Yang coldly gazed at this "rival in love", his voice icy. He and Lin Yu both knew that Liu Wei was resolute in marrying Lin Yu, not because he loved Lin Yu deeply, but because he had set his sights on the Lin family's business! Both the Liu and Lin families were giant commercial powers, and forming an alliance through marriage would naturally allow them to seize a larger market.

  Liu Wei let out a hearty laugh, but his face didn't show much joy. He said, "My woman, Liu Wei's woman, how can she have another man in her heart? Even if there is one, it can only be a dead man! Zhang Yang, do you understand?"

  Zhang Yang was slightly stunned, he knew that Liu's only son was lawless, but killing someone in a hotel like this public place was also too arrogant!

  "Don't be so surprised! Jinzhou is my Liu family's territory, even if I poke a hole in the sky, someone will help me fill it up!" Liu Wei said with a cold smile, "That cheap woman actually delayed me for four whole years because of you! Hmph, after killing you, I'll go back and slowly deal with her!"

  Zhang Yang suddenly became furious, and with a loud shout, he jumped out of bed, his eyes fixed on the man, and roared: "If you dare to touch a single hair on her head, I'll kill you!"

  "Haha, I don't just want to move her a single hair, but also thoroughly fuck her, fuck her rotten! That rotten bitch has slept with you many times, right? Damn it, she actually dares to make Liu Wei wear a green hat!" Liu Wei's face turned hideous, his handsome image collapsing instantly.

  "Bastard!" Zhang Yang bellowed, suddenly making a fish leap, pouncing on Liu Wei.

  Liu Wei let out a cold snort and gave orders to the two muscular men: "Throw him off the balcony!"

  "Yes!" The two muscular men responded in unison and welcomed Zhang Yang.

  Liu Wei was naturally confident in his two battle-hardened bodyguards, and with a relaxed expression, he said to Zhang Yang: "'The lovesick man is heartbroken and wants to die, jumping off the building to die for love'. What do you think of this headline as tomorrow's top news? That cheap woman will definitely have a great expression on her face when she sees it!"

  Zhang Yang was fearless and arrogant, having lost his parents at a young age. He had been unruly since childhood, and no one dared to discipline him, making him a local bully! After entering university, he became more reserved, stopped fighting, but joined the martial arts club, sparring with others every day.

  He was born with well-developed motor nerves, extremely agile and nimble. He entered the martial arts club only two years ago and defeated a teacher who had won ninth place in the national martial arts competition! In all these years, Zhang Yang has never stopped training, his physical strength is unparalleled!

  Those two muscle men are obviously skilled, otherwise they wouldn't have become Liu Wei's bodyguards! But in Zhang Yang's eyes, these two were not even worth looking at!

  Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Zhang Yang swung his fists like lightning and moved his feet like a snake, with a set of "chaotic boxing" that was both familiar and ruthless. The two muscular men were completely unable to defend themselves.

  Liu Wei was shocked and furious, never expecting that Zhang Yang would have such terrifying skills! For a moment, his head was hot with rage, he didn't even have time to think carefully, and he quickly pulled out a small handgun from his suit and aimed it at Zhang Yang, pulling the trigger!

  It wasn't strange at all that a wealthy family like the Liu's could get their hands on guns, but it was astonishing that Liu Wei would be so brazen as to use a handgun in public. Zhang Yang was shocked! As his gaze fell upon the dark muzzle of the gun pointed at him, Zhang Yang instinctively raised his hand and a muscular man suddenly stumbled forward, blocking his body with his own.

  Bang!

  A gunshot rang out, and a crimson blood flower burst forth on the muscular man's back. The bodyguard didn't even have time to let out a pained cry before he immediately fell to the ground.

  Liu Wei didn't stop at one shot, after a brief moment of stunned silence, he raised his gun again and aimed it at Zhang Yang.

  Zhang Yang didn't dare to be a living target, so he quickly grabbed one of the muscular men with a small move and used him as a human shield, rushing towards Liu Wei.

  The muscular man saw Liu Wei pointing the black hole-like gun at himself, and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, shouting: "Liu Shao, don't shoot! Don't shoot——"

  Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

  Liu Wei, this selfish and arrogant person, how could he possibly heed a request from one of his subordinates? With a flick of his wrist, he fired six shots in a row, emptying the magazine.

  In the midst of the smoke, the second muscular man was shot multiple times in the chest, abdomen and head, long dead. But his body, driven by Zhang Yang, rushed over with lightning speed, colliding with Liu Wei who was about to reload his bullets!

  Zhang Yang suddenly appeared from behind the muscular man's back, his iron-like fist swung up and heavily smashed onto Liu Wei's face.

  This punch was incredibly heavy, Liu Wei's golden glasses were knocked off instantly, and his face also had a new scratch, with blood flowing freely.

  Zhang Yang stretched out his right hand and pulled Liu Wei out from under the muscular man's body, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as he threw another punch.

  "Ah——" Liu Wei, who had grown up with a golden key, had never suffered such physical pain before and let out a series of mournful cries. He was also a ruthless person, staring at Zhang Yang with a fierce gaze, saying: "You bastard, you dare to hit me! You're dead for sure! I not only want to kill you, but also chop up your corpse and feed it to the dogs!"

  No matter who has a good temper, being shot seven times in a row can't calm down! Zhang Yang was already furious, seeing Liu Wei still dare to threaten himself, he couldn't help but get even angrier, and another punch came out. "Slap" once, Liu Wei's face was instantly covered in blood, and he spat out 7 or 8 broken teeth with a "wow".

  "Little Liu! Little Liu!" A string of shouts rang out, and more than a dozen muscular men rushed into the room, with several people's waists bulging high, apparently carrying weapons!

  Liu Wei was overjoyed and shouted: "Kill him! Kill him!"

  "Clang! Clang! Clang!" Those muscular men, upon receiving the order, immediately charged towards Zhang Yang. Several of them even drew out short knives, their cold glint flashing in the light.

  Zhang Yang's waist overflowed with fresh blood, and although there was a meat shield in front of him earlier, he was still hit by a stray bullet in the abdomen. In this brief moment, he felt his strength rapidly draining from his body, his vision blurring, and he might pass out at any time!

  In such a situation, let alone fighting with others, it's extremely difficult to even stay sober!

  Zhang Yang looked at Liu Wei with a glance and muttered: "I guess this is also considered as eliminating harm for the people?"

  Suddenly a loud laugh, Zhang Yang grabbed Liu Wei and rushed to the balcony, with an unstoppable momentum, the two instantly flew out of thin air, like two shooting stars, falling from the 19th floor!
