Earlier, Zeke's aura was so intimidating that the four martial artists had a delusion that they were facing thousands of troops.
Seeing that he was alone, the tattooed man smiled coldly. “I didn't expect you to be here. It seems like we have underestimated you. You are a real man, after all.”
Meanwhile, Emma was scared out of her wits. She swiftly ran forward and reprimanded, “Who asked you to come out? Hurry up and get inside!”
Then, she averted her gaze to the four men and said, “This has nothing to do with him. Come at me if you want to vent your frustration. They're innocent.”
While speaking, she tried to push Zeke into the bedroom.
However, he stood still like a big tree, undaunted.
Emma could not push him away no matter how hard she tried.
Probably, Zeke's words had given Amelia courage. She pointed at the four martial artists and uttered, “They're bad guys. Zee, can you help me chase the bad guys out of my house?”
Zeke nodded. “Of course. Leave them to me.”
All of a sudden, the four martial artists burst out laughing.
“Little girl, you're right. We're indeed bad guys. You're about to fall into the hands of the bad guys. Tell us. What should we do to you?”
“This child's eyesight is pretty good. Let's sell her cornea to the hospital. Not only her corneas but also her kidneys and heart. Oh, her blood too!”
Emma felt a chill run down her spine.
Just listening to them made her tremble.
She could not imagine what they would do to Amelia if she fell into their hands.
Subconsciously, she hugged Amelia and walked to the window.
“D-Don't come near me. If you take one step forward, I'll jump immediately. Come at me if you want to seek revenge. I'll agree to all your requests, but please let my daughter go.”
“Jump if you dare. It'll be deemed as suicide, hence nothing to do with us. We don't even need to worry about getting ourselves out of trouble.”
“That little girl has such soft and smooth skin. If she falls, won't she be smashed into a pulp?”
“Ugh. Thinking of it makes me feel disgusting.”
Being driven into a corner, Emma panicked and was at a loss for what to do.
“Are you done talking?” Zeke had reached his limits and went ballistic.
Never had he expected that someone in the world would be so cruel, even planning to lay their hands on a child.
Moreover, they were martial artists.
They are the humiliation of martial artists! People like them don't deserve to exist in this world.
The four martial artists shifted their attention to Zeke and made fun of him.
“Dude, have you ever heard of don't bite off more than you can chew? If you want to be a hero and save a damsel in distress, you need to be capable enough to do so. I see that your physical fitness is pretty good, and you're also exuding a strong aura. I guess you're a martial artist as well. I'll give you a chance to live. Join us, and I'll make sure that you'll be wealthy for the rest of your life. How about that?”
Zeke released his energy to protect Emma and Amelia so that they would not really jump off the building. After that, he walked toward the four martial artists.
“Cherish every word you're saying now because they may be your last.”
Upon hearing that, the tattooed martial artist was seething with anger. “You're pushing your luck, huh? Do you think I won't dare—”
Before he finished speaking, Zeke grabbed his collar and threw him away casually.
Consequently, the tattooed man's body flew out of the window like a meteor and fell straight down.
“Ahh!”
Thud!
Everyone was dumbstruck.
Until the loud thud sounded, indicating that the tattooed man had landed on the ground, only they returned to their senses.
Murderer! This bastard is a murderer! He threw people off the sixth floor like it was nothing! Is he a demon? He's so ruthless!
Even the four martial artists were not as cruel as him.
One of the martial artists shouted, “Damn it, you bastard! We're Mr. Sixtus' right-hand man. You dare to kill his right-hand man? Do you have a death wish? Hurry up and surrender yourself—”
However, he never had the chance to finish his sentence, as Zeke had slapped him hard.
