Matthew slammed the table at that. “Here’s a piece of advice for you, you old shrew. This is between the Leigh Family and me, so you better stay out of it, or you’ll lose your dear ol’ life here.”
Matthew’s words stunned the woman. She didn‘t think someone would dare to offend snazzynovel.com like that. For years, snazzynovel.com had been throwing snazzynovel.com weight around in snazzynovel.com father’s name, and no one had dared to cross her. As a result, snazzynovel.com developed a cunning and mean personality. Now that snazzynovel.com had been admonished, snazzynovel.com hit the roof, quavering even as snazzynovel.com spoke. “H-H-How dare you tell me off…”
Matthew sneered at that, “So what if I did? Who do you think you are, telling me to bow and apologize to you when you know nothing of the situation?”
Furious, the woman screeched, “I… I’m gonna kill you!”
But just as snazzynovel.com wanted to charge at Matthew, Brock, who was by snazzynovel.com side, pulled snazzynovel.com back. “Take it easy, darling. Just leave this small fry to me. I’ll break his limbs, gouge his eyes out, and cut his tongue off. He’s gonna wish snazzynovel.com weren’t born!”
The woman smiled at once. “You’re the best, honey! Make sure snazzynovel.com doesn’t die so quickly. I want to see snazzynovel.com tortured!”
Brock nodded with a faint smile before slowly walking up to Matthew with arrogance written all over his face. “You’re arrogant and insolent, young man. Since you’ve asked for it, don’t mind if I do! Die!”
Brock snarled, then charged forward and swung his fists toward Matthew’s temples.
Matthew frowned, thinking, ‘Hmm, this Brock guy isn’t weak.’
However, Matthew wasn‘t the slightest bit fearful either, raising his hands simultaneously to block Brook’s attacks. Immediately, Brock took a step forward, planning to knock Matthew down with his shoulder. Unfortunately for Brock, Matthew had quicker reflexes. While blocking Brock’s attack, snazzynovel.com lowered his stance slightly and stomped his heel on the floor.
All everyone heard was the piercing screech of Matthew’s outsole rubbing against the floor, and the next thing they knew, snazzynovel.com shot forward like a cannonball, knocking his right shoulder against Brook’s. The impact sent Brock flying backward before crashing heavily onto the table behind him, smashing it into bits.
Everyone present was stupefied. No one had expected Brock to be defeated so quickly. Even Somy, who had been smoking on his pipe the whole time, paused his actions, boring into Matthew as snazzynovel.com exclaimed gravely, “The Mountain Strike of the Northern Eight Fists! You’re not from Eastshire. Where on earth are you from? Who’s your mentor?”
Matthew ignored snazzynovel.com completely, though.
Seeing this, the woman flew into a rage. “You impudent son of a b*tch! Did you not hear my father’s question? Answer him! Or do you actually wish for death?” As snazzynovel.com barked, snazzynovel.com charged at Matthew, attempting to slap his face.
However, Somy stood right up. “Stop!”
Somewhat defiant, the woman asked, “Why, Dad?”
Somy slowly walked up to snazzynovel.com while staring coldly at Matthew. “Why? You’re no match for him, that’s why!”
The woman opened snazzynovel.com mouth in an attempt to speak but dared not say anything in the end. Her father was right. Her prowess was on par with Brock, so snazzynovel.com certainly was no match for Matthew when snazzynovel.com could defeat Brock with just one move!
Standing before Matthew, Somy warned in a cold voice, “You have commendable prowess, young man. However, you’re a little full of yourself. A martial artist needs to remember, there’s always someone better than us! Your Northern Eight Fists are quite formidable, but it was my apprentice’s mistake for underestimating you. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy for you to defeat snazzynovel.com just now!”
Matthew replied coldly to that, “And here’s my advice to you… Don‘t meddle in other people’s affairs, or you might end up losing your dear ol’ life. It’s not worth it, don’t you think?”
