Chapter 35: My Name Is Wu Chuanjiang
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ping An County was only a small place with a population of about a hundred thousand.
However, the weather was pleasant. There were not many cars on the road, and there was no clamor in the city.
Life here was relatively peaceful. There was no bustling activity from the workers who were usually in a hurry. Furthermore, most of the people were not martial artists. Thus, the overall environment was very similar to Liu Chuan’s life before he transmigrated.
As Liu Chuan jogged along the side of the road, he smelled the faint fragrance of flowers in the air with a contented expression.
With his current physical fitness, it was not a problem for him to run tens of kilometers.
Liu Chuan somewhat enjoyed this kind of life. It was as if he was still living in his previous world. There was no change at all.
However, the changes in his body and the system in his mind told him that the world was different. Everything had changed.
Liu Chuan shook his head lightly and decided not to think too much into it. Since he was already here, he might as well take things as they came. There was no need for him to think about such trivial matters.
He ran until he reached a small alley. He estimated that he had run for quite a distance. Thus, he turned around and was about to run back.
At this moment, Liu Chuan heard a strange sound coming from the alley ahead.
“Beautiful lady, hehehe, you’re quite pretty, don’t you want to play with me…”
When Liu Chuan heard that, he thought to himself, “Oh my, did I meet a hooligan who is seducing an innocent woman? This is ridiculous. I’ve never met a hooligan before.”
He had to go up and take a look.
Oh, that wasn’t right. As an upright young man, how could he tolerate such dirty things happening?
When he thought of this, Liu Chuan hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound. Fortunately, his hearing was astonishing. Otherwise, ordinary people would not have been able to hear the sound from so far away.
Just as he ran into the alley, he saw a few gangsters with unorthodox hairstyles.
Wow, their fringe hung down and covered their eyes. Meanwhile, the hair on their heads stood up straight like a fan…
Liu Chuan wanted to say that they didn’t need their eyes, they could be donated to those who needed them.
Looking at the hair of the few people in front of him, a song that he had quite liked before automatically appeared in his mind: “Balloons”.
“Black, white, red, and yellow;”
“Purple, green, blue, and gray;”
“Yours, mine, his, hers;”
“Big or small, round or flat;”
“Good, bad, beautiful, ugly;”
“New and old designs;”
“You can choose all kinds of colors.”
…
Liu Chuan was dumbfounded as he looked at them. These seven anti-mainstream people in front of him all had similar hairstyles, but their hair colors were different. Each person had at least two different hair colors.
It was obvious that the one with rainbow-colored hair was their boss.
The number of hair colors and the length of their hair determined their status.
This group of anti-mainstream people had their backs facing Liu Chuan. They were surrounding a young girl in a dress. The rainbow-haired man leading the group had an evil smile on his face as he approached the young girl.
The others also looked like they were hooligans. They smiled wickedly and even licked their lips.
“Little girl, how about it? Come and play with us handsome guys.”
The rainbow-haired guy, who was about 165 centimeters tall, wanted to kabedon and act cool.
In the end, the girl in the dress, who was originally curled up on the ground, suddenly stood up. She was actually half a head taller than the rainbow-haired guy.
This was awkward. The kabedon failed.
The girl in a dress was about 175 centimeters tall. Her face was beautiful and pure, and her beautiful eyes were clear and watery. She had a long ponytail tied behind her head.
Although she was tall, her face still made people want to protect her. If she was a little shorter, she would definitely be highly sought after by lolita fans.
The lackeys didn’t have good judgment and continued to tease her. As they spoke, they even brushed their bangs.
“Little girl, are you alone? Do you need me to send you home?”
“Little beauty, how about this? Are you going to sing with us brothers?”
“There’s a karaoke bar up ahead. My brothers are the VIPs there. Come and play with us, okay?”
“Follow us and have a good time.”
“We won’t take your money. It’s free.”
This group of anti-mainstream people teased her crazily. They even whistled as they did so.
When Liu Chuan saw this, he felt that he could not wait any longer. He was secretly happy as he thought, “I’ve never thought that the scene where the hero saves the damsel in distress would involve a random person like me.”
However, just as he was about to step forward to stop those people from doing anything bad, he saw the girl in a dress smile sweetly and say slyly, “Sure, brothers.”
The girl in a dress spoke softly and gently. Her voice was tender and pleasant to the ears.
The young woman had a beautiful appearance to begin with. Furthermore, when she smiled, there were two shallow dimples on her face, making her look like a blooming white orchid.
Liu Chuan was stunned. Why didn’t she follow the usual pattern?
If she agreed to follow these hooligans, then how could Liu Chuan become a hero who saved the beauty?
Even though the girl had agreed to play with this group of anti-mainstream people, Liu Chuan still didn’t back away.
However, as a righteous person, he still had the obligation to save the girl who had lost her footing, especially one who was so beautiful. He could not let her go astray.
Even the anti-mainstream people were stunned, let alone Liu Chuan. They thought that they had misheard her.
It wasn’t that they didn’t know their limits. Usually, when they flirted with young girls, they were basically rejected. There were even some girls who were frightened to tears, but they never got tired of it.
However, they would simply seduce pretty girls who passed by them. They would not really do anything illegal. After all, they were just a group of delinquents, not real social parasites.
“Being a gangster is just a hobby. Making friends is the goal.”
This was the motto of their organization.
When they heard the reply from the girl in the dress, they were depressed. If she didn’t reject them, they wouldn’t be able to tease her as they had planned.
However, if she was really willing to have a few drinks with them, they would be extremely happy.
…
Just as the group of hooligans happily brought the young girl away…
Liu Chuan strode forward and placed his hand on the shoulder of a red and-green-haired person. With a gentle lift, he sent the man flying.
With a scream, the unlucky child flew high into the air and fell heavily to the ground.
Liu Chuan knew what was going on. This group of anti-mainstream people had cultivated before. This way, they wouldn’t suffer too many injuries, just a bit of pain.
“I say, it’s not very appropriate for you to tease an innocent woman like this in broad daylight.”
Liu Chuan narrowed his eyes and spoke.
Then, while the others were not paying attention, he picked up a few anti-mainstream people with colorful hair in front of him and sent them flying into the sky. Whoosh!
Miserable screams instantly rang out. This scene was very tragic.
The rainbow-haired anti-mainstream leader turned around to look at his subordinates’ miserable state and almost peed his pants.
However, if he admitted defeat now, how was he going to survive in the future? Therefore, he forced himself to say in a fierce tone, “F*ck you! Who are you to meddle in other people’s business? Do you want to die?”
The rainbow-haired leader simply wanted to scare Liu Chuan. This was their usual tactic. When normal people heard his fierce tone, they would not be nosy. Unfortunately, Liu Chuan was not an ordinary person.
When Liu Chuan heard this, he coldly spat out, “My name is Wu Chuanjiang!”
As a quick-witted youth, Liu Chuan naturally wouldn’t tell them his real name.
