Chapter 50: Do You Dare to Fire?

  Zhao Yang's eyes were cold and fixed on Captain Zhao, although he was being pointed at by a gun, but Zhao Yang didn't show any fear.

  "You think that by pointing a gun at me, I'll surrender and let you do whatever you want? Ha! I'd like to see if you dare to fire the shot!" Zhao Yang sneered.

  At this time, Old Li and Old Qin also approached from left and right, each holding a pair of handcuffs.

  "Sorry, please cooperate with us, we are just following orders." Old Li and Old Qin said in a low voice to Zhao Yang.

  Having seen Zhao Yang's skills just now, Old Li and Old Qin also had no confidence in capturing Zhao Yang. Moreover, they knew that this matter today was basically about Captain Zhao wanting to curry favor with Deputy Director Liu of the Municipal Bureau, who was also his brother-in-law, so he wanted to deal with Zhao Yang without distinguishing between right and wrong.

  Old Li and Old Qin's words made Zhao Yang somewhat surprised, he glanced at the two of them and said lightly: "You two are not my opponents, considering you both still have some bottom line, I won't let you suffer too much."

  As for Zhao Yang's words, neither Old Li nor Old Qin felt any anger. Both of them were retired from special forces and had experienced things that ordinary small police officers couldn't compare to. They also knew that if they really started fighting, the two of them might not be a match for Zhao Yang.

  In fact, they didn't even know how terrifying Zhao Yang's strength had reached. Let alone the two of them, even twenty special forces soldiers with their skills wouldn't be a match for Zhao Yang in hand-to-hand combat without using firearms.

  At present, Zhao Yang has reached the 'condensation period' of his cultivation. Even a leaf in his hand can become a deadly weapon, and flying leaves can kill people. This is already considered to be the highest level that ordinary national arts can achieve.

  The essence of Chinese martial arts has been lost in the long river of history. Nowadays, the country's martial arts only practice tendons, bones, skin, and internal organs. Those who can reach the peak of the foundation period, with all five internal organs fully filled with inner energy, are probably countable on one hand throughout China. Not to mention breaking through the level of inner energy and reaching the stage of practicing energy into gas! Such a realm is equivalent to the so-called "Pre-Heavenly Realm" circulating in the martial arts circle!

  Is such a master someone ordinary people can defeat by sheer numbers?

  Although Old Li and Old Qin were also reluctant to capture Zhao Yang, they had no choice but to take action due to their duties.

  Zhao Yang naturally understood this principle, seeing the opponent's swift and skilled movements, far surpassing those of the ordinary police officers from earlier. He immediately countered with both hands, firmly grasping the large hands that had been seized by the two men.

  Lao Li and Lao Qin, seeing their hands being grabbed by Zhao Yang, seemed to have expected it and showed no surprise, but immediately used their other hand to grab the handcuffs and put them on one of Zhao Yang's hands.

  Zhao Yang let out a light hum, and with a forceful push of both hands, a massive energy burst forth, directly sending Old Li and Old Qin stumbling backward, retreating five or six steps before barely managing to steady themselves.

  As soon as he stabilized his body, Old Li and Old Qin couldn't help but look at each other in shock. Although they had already expected Zhao Yang's strength to some extent, it wasn't until now that they truly felt the shocking extent of his power. They were completely on a different level of existence. Even when they were still in the special forces, they didn't think anyone could be more formidable than Zhao Yang.

  Just as Old Li and Old Qin were shocked by Zhao Yang's powerful strength, Captain Zhao suddenly opened his mouth and shouted loudly: "You stand still and don't move. If you dare to make another false move or resist arrest, don't blame me for opening fire!"

  He originally thought that with his own gun threatening from the side, Zhao Yang would be somewhat intimidated, and since Old Li and Old Qin were both retired special forces experts, they should have been able to capture Zhao Yang smoothly.

  As long as Zhao Yang is taken down and brought away, the rest of the matter can be handled at will. Even if someone posts today's events online, there are ways to suppress it. In this era, similar incidents have happened many times, and only a few people who were really unlucky and made a big fuss about it ended up being removed from office. As long as we make a phone call to our acquaintances at the internet monitoring department and ask them to keep an eye on things, after some time has passed, this matter will naturally be forgotten and no one will bother to stir up trouble again.

  It can be said that Captain Zhao is a master of abacus. Unfortunately, he never thought that Zhao Yang's strength was also too strong, and even two retired special forces soldiers couldn't take him down.

  Now he can't afford to care about so much, as long as he can bring down Zhao Yang, everything will be resolved smoothly. He has sold Liu, the deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, such a huge favor, no matter what he says, he will come out and help himself move down the position.

  If he can't take down Zhao Yang and continue to drag things out, the longer it drags on, the more dangerous it will be for him. No one knows if this matter will attract the attention of some big shot upstairs or if the surrounding crowd will really erupt.

  "Don't think I don't dare to shoot, you're not only suspected of damaging others' property, threatening and intimidating, intentionally injuring people, but also resisting arrest, assaulting police. For a dangerous terrorist like you who poses a significant threat to society, shooting you dead would be eliminating harm for the people and reducing losses for the country and its people!"

  Captain Zhao shouted loudly and severely, desperately fabricating various unfounded charges against Zhao Yang, giving himself a righteous and just name.

  "Threats and intimidation? Intentional harm? Resisting arrest and assaulting the police? Ha! What a big hat you're wearing! Humph, right and wrong are clear in people's hearts. You think that by putting on a dog skin you can call black white? If you have the ability, just go ahead and fire your gun!"

  Zhao Yang said disdainfully. The handgun in Captain Zhao's hand was not enough to threaten the current Zhao Yang, unless it was a large-caliber firearm, such as a sniper rifle, that could truly pose a threat to Zhao Yang. This was also the reason why Zhao Yang was fearless.

  However, Zhao Yang's words ignited Captain Zhao's anger, and he directly 'slapped' the safety of his pistol open, pointing the muzzle at Zhao Yang with a fierce tone: "Do you think I really don't dare? Let me say it again, if you dare to resist arrest again, don't blame me for shooting directly!"

  Everyone nearby clearly heard and saw Captain Zhao's action of opening the safety catch on his pistol, and for a moment even the police officers standing next to him were shocked, and there was a commotion in the crowd.

  To know that police firearms and every bullet are strictly controlled and managed, any use of bullets must be filed.

  And now here is a public place with so many onlookers, if the gun accidentally goes off and hurts someone, the consequences will be severe.

  What's more, even if it was just a personal grudge against Zhao Yang, Captain Zhao's abuse of power to curry favor with Deputy Director Liu's younger brother is already a case of using public office for private revenge. Now, actually mobilizing firearms, this is a matter that will trigger a huge backlash!

  If they really opened fire, the consequences would be far more severe than just abuse of power.

  "Captain..."

  A rational police officer rushed forward to try to persuade Captain Zhao. Unfortunately, at this moment, Captain Zhao was already furious and couldn't be persuaded, and as soon as he saw someone trying to stop him, his eyes widened and he shouted: "Less nonsense! I'm arresting a dangerous criminal for the safety of national property and people's lives, even if I really shot him, it would be what he deserved!"

  The policeman who wanted to persuade him immediately shut up when Captain Zhao glared at him like that.

  At this time, Captain Zhao shouted again: "Old Li, Old Qin, don't hurry up and take down that little boy. If he dares to move a bit, I'll shoot him directly!"

  Seeing Captain Zhao's fierce expression, which didn't seem fake, Old Li and Old Qin exchanged a glance, swallowed hard, and steeled themselves to go up.
