The Understated Dragon Lord

Chapter 384 Who Sent You

Whoosh! Whoosh! With the whistling sound of the air, steel pipes were swung towards Daniel's head. Although Daniel's head was tougher than steel and could have sent the pipes bending, he wasn't about to let them make contact.

With quick fists and kicks, Daniel dispatched the encroaching thugs in less than a minute, sending them flying every which way. Jessica was unsurprised by Daniel's combat ability, but Beauty stood there dumbfounded. This unassuming country boy was shockingly adept at fighting.

Daniel approached King, scrutinized his colossal head, and asked with a grin, "Who sent you?"

Feeling intimidated after witnessing Daniel's prowess, King backed away, asking, "What... what do you want to do?"

"I'm asking who sent you here. If you answer honestly, I'll let you off this time."

"No one... no one sent me."

King dared not reveal Beauty's name; after all, he was aware of her standing as a lady of New York's Matthews family. The repercussions of betraying such a figure could be dire.

"No one sent you? Then who gave you the ten grand?" Daniel pressed on.

"No one. I was just bluffing!"

"Bluffing?"

Daniel flashed a devilish grin, then landed a heavy slap across King's face.

Smack!

King's cheek swelled instantly. Several teeth were sent scattering to the ground, as he let out a shriek of pain.

"Ah!"

"Why are you hitting me?"

"Who gave you the ten grand?"

"No one did."

Smack!

Another slap came hard and fast. The other side of King's face swelled too, more teeth sent flying from his mouth.

"Ah! You... you still hitting me?"

Smack! Smack!
