Old Cheng was very troubled by his troublesome nephew.
Other kids take on challenges that are within their reach with a little effort, but this kid always challenges the most dangerous things.
Even he dared not touch that energy sword aura, yet this guy actually wanted Andy to unleash it on him.
If it weren't for the need to ensure his cousin's family line continued, Lao Cheng would have preferred to just kill him outright; at least then he wouldn't have to worry about where he might die.
Zheng Shangqi, who was being brutally beaten, did not put up any resistance; he simply squatted on the ground, covering his head.
"Damn it, hurry up and find me a niece-in-law to keep the Zheng family line. After that, I won't care what you do."
After punching Zheng Shangqi, Lao Cheng returned to the tavern, cursing and swearing.
Whistler and the others looked at Zheng Shangqi with amusement, as even the assassins' knives couldn't block the energy sword energy.
They were cut in two, along with their weapons. How confident must Zheng Shangqi be to make such a demand?
"Shang-Chi, your request is absolutely stupid."
Speaking with a strange accent, Jessica held a baseball bat in one hand and patted his shoulder with the other.
The immense force slammed Zheng Shangqi, who was just about to get up, onto the ground, causing the surrounding people to burst into laughter.
Zheng Shangqi wasn't angry. He got up from the ground, rubbed his shoulders, and complained, "Go easy on me. Don't you know how strong you are?"
Hearing this, Jessica got angry, slapped him to the ground, and walked into the tavern without looking back.
Another burst of laughter erupted around them. They knew they couldn't stop Jessica's power, yet they still insisted on provoking her. They deserved the slap.
Everyone laughed as they entered the tavern; the damage caused by the assassins still needed to be dealt with.
Seeing that everyone had returned to the tavern, Matt said to the people around him, "Daniel, if you need help, this is the best place."
The man named Daniel nodded and walked into the tavern with Matt.
People were chatting happily in the Witcher's Tavern, but they all looked at Matt and Daniel with disgust.
Daniel, in particular, was the one who kept leading the assassin toward the tavern.
Jessica and Zheng Shangqi stood solemnly in front of Andy, with the two warriors who had just fought the assassin behind them.
Jessica introduced the black man to Andy, saying, "His name is Luke Cage, and he has some special powers just like me."
Zheng Shangqi patted the white man next to him and said, "This is Hector Ayala, his fighting ability is very good."
Looking at the two of them, Andy didn't understand what they meant.
If it's just an introduction, why not let them introduce themselves?
Seemingly aware of Andy's problem, Whistler explained, "They both want to work here. You're the boss, so your words carry more weight than mine."
"I see," Andy nodded and said, "Of course. Speaking of which, I came here today to deliver power armor, and it should be arriving soon."
These words caught Whistler's eye; power armor had been frequently featured on television these past few days.
He had been eyeing it for days, and he never expected Andy to send them power armor, which made him quite excited.
He abandoned Andy and ran out to greet the power armor belonging to the Witcher's Tavern.
Luke Cage and Hector Araya were overjoyed; the job at the pub was the best they could find right now.
Not only are they provided with room and board, but they also receive a high salary of several hundred dollars every week, enough for them to live a stable life.
Hector, in particular, went to a corner of the tavern where his sister was.
"Ava, I can work here from now on, and we won't have to look for a place to live anymore."
"Really? We can really live here?"
Ava put down the secondhand DV camera he had just bought and looked at Hector with excitement.
Because they had little money, they were often evicted by their landlords. The situation only improved slightly after she sold the video of Electroman.
But that money would eventually run out, so after having a big meal in Chinatown, they started looking for new jobs again.
It wasn't until they met Shang-Chi that they were brought here to apply for jobs.
The benefits here are excellent, and despite the fact that this place is known as Hell's Kitchen, they are still very satisfied with their work.
While they were talking, a conflict broke out between Matt and his friends and the people in the tavern.
It turns out that someone disapproved of Daniel's actions and brought the danger here, which led to a conflict with them.
Even if this person was deliberately trying to cause trouble, they didn't make any physical moves.
But Daniel was provoked and his face turned furious. He grabbed the man by the collar, and the orange light in his hand shone brightly.
"If I were you, I wouldn't do that."
Just as he was about to strike, Shang-Chi's voice rang out.
Shang-Chi leaned against the bar with an air of detached amusement, while Jessica beside him was itching to throw them out of the pub at any moment.
Daniel was perhaps a man who would listen to advice; he put down the troublemaker, and the light in his hand completely disappeared.
He turned and walked toward Andy, ignoring the others.
Seeing that she couldn't throw them out, Jessica glared at Shang-Chi and said, "Next time you cause trouble, I'll throw you out first. Trust me, I can do it."
Then she left without looking back, wanting to vent her frustration by arm wrestling with someone.
Shang-Chi glanced at Jessica with a smile, then stared intently at Daniel, sensing a peculiar aura emanating from him.
"Mr. Andy, this is my friend Daniel. He has something to tell you."
Matt greeted Andy and introduced Daniel, who was sitting next to him, to Andy.
Although Andy was wearing the Holy Sword, Daniel knew from the way Andy looked that Andy was looking at him.
Remembering Andy's formidable fighting abilities, Daniel paused and said, "Hello, Mr. Andy, the people of New York need your strength."
His words not only failed to attract Andy's attention, but also made Andy find them laughable.
Andy had heard this kind of talk about the world and the people countless times. Whenever someone said that, they were a bunch of liars.
"Let me guess what you're going to say next. Someone controls something special that can destroy the world, right, Mr. Daniel?"
"Ha, what a lie."
Andy said dismissively, "If there really were an apocalyptic crisis, this world would have been devastated long ago."
Instead of someone running out and telling him where his strength is needed.
Speechless after being confronted by Andy, Daniel's pent-up negative emotions from being targeted in the pub finally erupted.
He glared angrily at Andy and shouted, "Believe it or not, if the Hand finds the Dragon Bone, you will all be destroyed along with New York."
Before he could finish speaking, a sword light slashed towards him, moving with incredible speed and arriving in front of him in the blink of an eye.
Ding~
As if by instinct, Daniel unleashed a burst of energy in his hand, blocking the sword light, while Andy was at the other end of the sword.
"If they're going to destroy New York, I'll stop them. Now, please get out."
Andy didn't take Daniel's threat seriously.
If the Hand is really as powerful as he claims, then why hasn't the Hand ruled the world, or even a small country?
After retracting his empty blade, Andy said, "Matt, take your friend away from here. He's not welcome here."
Hearing Andy's unhappy voice, Matt knew that Andy was already dissatisfied with Daniel.
If they stayed any longer, Andy might not attack Daniel with a sword, but with something else. For safety's sake, he forcibly dragged Daniel away from the Witcher's Tavern.
