Chapter 491

Chapter 491 Can You Be Any More Outrageous?

Li Long had been slammed so hard that he could feel his entire back splitting with pain. He roared furiously, “You bitch, how dare you throw me like that! Brothers, get her together, tear her clothes off!”

Before he could finish, he felt a beer bottle smash violently into his mouth.

The pain made him let out a wretched howl, his vision went black, and he nearly lost consciousness entirely.

The hard beer bottle had knocked out god knows how many of his teeth, and the whole bottle shattered into broken glass shards that filled his mouth. Some had even been forced down into his esophagus.

Li Long couldn’t say another word. He clutched his throat and lay on the ground coughing desperately. His mouth was full of blood, and the inside of his oral cavity had been sliced open in countless places by the glass fragments.

“Brothers, get her!”

The others saw what happened and rushed forward immediately. They had always run roughshod over this area, and now they had been tripped up by a woman — that was absolutely unacceptable.

“Good. Very good.”

Danielle Sharp had sobered up completely. She watched the few people charging at her with cold eyes, raised her right leg, and aimed a heavy kick at the guy in front.

In front of this top-tier beauty of the dark world, the movements of those street thugs were no different from children playing house.

But unexpectedly, her kick never landed.

Because she was wearing a pair of jeans — a pencil skirt, to be precise, one that Su Rui had carefully selected for her.

The tight, straight cut went all the way down to the backs of her knees. If Danielle wanted to swing her leg, she would either have to take the skirt off or hike it up to her waist.

Either way, she would be completely exposed.

And it was precisely because that imagined kick never came that Danielle Sharp’s supporting right foot lost its balance slightly — because the heel of that high heel was simply too thin and too long.

Wearing shoes like that made even ordinary walking a challenge, let alone throwing herself into a fierce fight like this.

In shoes like these, even the slightest loss of balance meant losing all control entirely.

In those stumbling steps, Danielle Sharp was completely unable to stay upright. Her feet lurched left and right, her ankles twisting repeatedly, and even with her extraordinary physical conditioning, she could clearly feel a sharp, sprain-like pain shooting through both ankles.

Sprains like that would take at least several days to recover from.

She had capsized in a ditch. What a sorry state to be in.

Thanks to the “specially curated” outfit Su Rui had put her in, the formidable Danielle Sharp actually looked like she was no match for a few street thugs.

After losing her balance, she fell to the ground in a way that was painful to watch.

The two snow-white peaks inside her camisole nearly came tumbling out.

At the sight of that irresistibly alluring figure, the eyes of the thugs began to light up.

At the same moment, a guy with a snake tattoo on his body leapt forward first and lunged hard at Danielle Sharp.

But if he had known he was facing a woman whose combat ability was several times his own, he probably wouldn’t have made such a reckless move.

Danielle Sharp lay on the ground, not even bothering to roll over and sit up, and shot a kick straight at the incoming attacker.

Thud.

Everyone heard a gut-wrenching dull crack — it was the stiletto heel of Danielle Sharp’s shoe piercing into the man’s chest.

So high heels could actually be used like that.

“Ahhh!”

The man let out a wretched scream. With a high heel embedded in his chest, his entire body went limp and toppled to one side.

Fortunately it hadn’t hit his heart, otherwise he would have died on the spot.

Seeing that a fight had broken out, many diners quickly left, afraid of getting caught in the crossfire.

Danielle Sharp saw this and simply kicked off her other shoe, hurling it hard at another person coming straight at her.

Another dull thud of something piercing flesh.

A guy clutched his cheek, which had been skewered clean through, and collapsed in sheer terror. With a stiletto heel sticking sideways through his mouth, the poor man fainted from fright on the spot.

“You crazy woman, how dare you fight back!”

The people behind hadn’t seen what was happening clearly and kept charging forward without fear.

Danielle Sharp stood up barefoot, grabbed an incoming attacker’s wrist, and twisted it back hard.

Crack.

The sound of bone snapping rang out with unmistakable clarity.

Only one person was left. Danielle Sharp picked up a stool from the ground and swung it straight at them.

“Ahhh!”

A scream rang out, and the person clutched their bleeding head and crumpled limply to the ground.

The landlady, who truly valued money over her own safety, came rushing over and said, “Hey gorgeous, you can’t just leave. You’ve broken so many things in here — you have to pay for all of it at the going rate!”

Danielle Sharp, covered in dust, glanced at her, her gaze ice-cold.

“What — what are you going to do?” The landlady, slow to catch on, finally sensed the danger and instinctively took a step back.

But before she knew it, Danielle had already closed the distance, swept her leg out, and tripped her straight to the ground.

When it came to woman versus woman, there was never any need for chivalry.

The landlady, who still had her charms, hit the ground with a grimace, and before she could even cry out in pain, she felt both of her flat shoes being pulled off her feet.

Danielle Sharp, despite her obsessive cleanliness and her absolute refusal under normal circumstances to wear someone else’s shoes, had no time to be picky right now. She slipped on the flat shoes, hiked her pencil skirt up halfway, stopped caring about whether anything was showing, and like a gust of wind, vanished swiftly into the night.

“Danielle Sharp, where do you think you’re running?” Su Rui’s voice rang out furiously in the distance.

“I just went to the bathroom for a second and you took the chance to bolt? Is there really that little trust between people? This is truly heartbreaking!”

“Even if you’d stayed, I wasn’t going to do anything to you — and you still ran!”

“Don’t forget, you still have the poison I planted in your body. No matter how far you run, you’ll have to come back like a good girl!”

Su Rui ran and shouted at the same time, but in the vast darkness of the night, there was no trace of Danielle Sharp anywhere.

He ran back and forth in several directions and still found not a single sign of her escape. Finally, Su Rui roared in fury, “Where are the Twelve Divine Guards? Where the hell did you all disappear to? Find her! Search carefully! Dig three feet into the ground if you have to!”

The moment Su Rui’s words fell, several figures burst out of the darkness and sprinted off in all directions.

At this moment, Danielle Sharp hadn’t gone far at all. She had simply circled around in the darkness and made her way back near the barbecue stall.

She looked down at her dust-covered body, then looked at Su Rui, furious in the night, and said quietly,

“Damn Apollo. You’ve made such a mess of me. One day I’m going to kill you.”

With that, she took a direction opposite to the Sun God Guards and quickly slipped away from the scene.

By now, this stunning beauty had made up her mind — the moment she returned to the West, it would be the moment the Hades Palace and the Sun God Palace officially went to war.

Given her identity, she could even make decisions on behalf of the Hades King himself.

After Danielle Sharp had gone, Su Rui turned to look in the direction she had left, drew the purple soft sword from his waist, and said with a smile, “A monk may run, but the temple stays put. Beautiful Danielle, go ahead and run circles on the soil of China for now — just don’t come crying and begging me to take you back when the time comes!”

“I’d like to see just how many people will jump out to protect you this time. The Hades Palace’s operatives planted in China — I’ll use your help to eliminate them one by one.”

After a quiet pause of ten seconds, Su Rui spoke into his communicator, “Twelve o’clock direction — Jin Taizhu, take your people and go after her. This proud young lady needs to suffer a little.”

“Yes, sir. Leave it to me.”

After Jin Taizhu acknowledged the order, that slightly stiff and rigid voice came through the communication channel again, “Sir, when you say suffer a little — exactly how much is that? Are we permitted to let Danielle Sharp get injured?”

Su Rui was genuinely at a loss for words when it came to this subordinate’s comprehension skills. He said impatiently, “As long as she doesn’t die, do whatever you want.”

And it was precisely those words that set the stage for the beginning of Danielle Sharp’s grueling ordeal.

The landlady, still sprawled on the ground, managed to say with great difficulty, “Are you two really not a couple?”

“She and I are just friends with benefits.” Su Rui said with a smile. If Danielle Sharp had heard those words, she would probably have wanted to strangle him at least a hundred times over.

“This is to cover the cost of the tables and chairs. As for the medical bills for those thugs, that’s none of my concern.” He stuffed a few hundred-yuan bills beside the landlady, then got up, got into Lin Aoxue’s BMW, and disappeared into the night in a flash.

…………

Having been busy for most of the night, Su Rui slept well past mid-morning the next day.

With Zhou Xianwei and several Divine Guards providing close protection, Lin Aoxue didn’t push Su Rui to come to work with her. After all, she knew this man was the renowned Apollo of the Western dark world, and he had far too many things to deal with.

If this man were to spend all his time revolving around her, Lin Aoxue wouldn’t feel smug about it. On the contrary, she would feel that she was tying Su Rui down, and a faint sense of guilt would linger in her heart.

After waking up, Su Rui took a shower, then leisurely gave Jin Taizhu a call.

“Where have you chased the Hades Palace’s great beauty to?”

“Sir, we’ve reached Beihua City,” Jin Taizhu said. “The target commandeered a vehicle and the pursuit is still ongoing.”

“Beihua City? You covered five hundred kilometers in one night? That’s quite the relentless chase.”

Su Rui shook his head and sighed, though no matter how you looked at it, that sigh carried a distinct note of schadenfreude.

Jin Taizhu had carried out his orders with absolute resolve, not giving Danielle a single moment to catch her breath through the entire night. This was going to leave some serious psychological scars on her.

If Danielle had quietly slipped away and snuck onto an international flight to make her escape, Su Rui would have had no hope of finding her in the vast sea of people. But all of this had been planned from the start — as long as the plan went without a hitch, this stunning beauty would be running herself ragged in circles across the land of China.

“Jin Taizhu, I have to criticize you — you really have no idea how to be gentle with a lady,” Su Rui said with a smile. “I’m very curious — do you think you could push it just a little further?”
