I practiced my spirituality alone in Hong Kong.

Early in the morning, after practicing the piano, Wen Zhilan yawned softly.

She casually turned on the record player next to her.

After a brief period of static, a lazy and melodious piece of European and American jazz music slowly began to play.

Wen Zhilan pushed open the bedroom window and looked at the clear blue sky and white clouds outside. She unconsciously thought that this was the same blue sky she had seen on the motorcycle yesterday, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

When I came downstairs, the butler, dressed in a dark women's uniform and looking meticulous, was already waiting at the bottom of the stairs.

She bowed slightly and said, "Good morning, Miss."

Good morning, Aunt Rong.

Wen Zhilan entered the living room, where a long table in front of her was filled with exquisite breakfast items, fresh seasonal fruits, and hot coffee.

She ate her meal quietly, and only spoke after she finished:

"Aunt Rong, just have them deliver the motorcycle we ordered last night directly to the Qingshan Road film set."

"After I go there today, you can come back first. You don't need to come with me. I'll have a classmate take me back tonight."

Aunt Rong nodded, but still hesitated.

"Miss, wouldn't it be safe to have that student Li escort you back?"

Kowloon has been quite turbulent lately. The Wo Shing Wo triad, one of Hong Kong's three major triads, is about to have its leadership change, and every year at this time, Kowloon becomes restless.

"They dare to offend me?"

"The King of Hell certainly wouldn't dare offend you, young lady, but he's afraid there might be some blind little devils who wouldn't recognize you..."

Wen Zhilan took a sip of hot milk and licked the milk foam off her thin lips.

"Don't worry about that, Aunt Rong. I feel very safe with him around."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to realize there was some ambiguity in her words, and quickly corrected herself:

"What I mean is... he knows kung fu, he'll protect me, there's no safety issue."

After Wen Zhilan finished speaking, she found that Aunt Rong was staring at her blankly.

"What's wrong, Aunt Rong?"

"No... I just never expected that our usually composed young lady would blush one day."

Feeling Aunt Rong's teasing gaze, Wen Zhilan's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly covered her face.

Her palms were warm, and needless to say... her face must have turned even redder.

……

……

After dropping Wen Zhilan off at Qingshan Road, Aunt Rong said goodbye to her.

As Wen Zhilan got out of the car, before she even got close to Director Yuan's film set, she saw a large crowd gathered in front of the set, pointing and gesturing in surprise.

"Awoo! Awoo!!"

Two low, fierce barks rang out.

She looked in the direction of the sound and saw that it was only a dozen meters away from Director Yuan's film set, under the back wall of Boss Zhou's film set.

A large dog with a broad and thick body, yellowish-brown in color, resembling a small tiger, was squatting on the ground.

This is a Kangal dog with a shoulder height of nearly 80 centimeters. Just standing, it almost reaches the waist of an adult man. If it stands on both legs, its body length will definitely exceed 1.8 meters.

This giant, ferocious dog was found to be without a cage or leash.

At this moment, Boss Zhou walked over, listened to the surrounding discussions, and proudly boasted to Wen Zhilan:

"Miss, this dog is called a Turkish Shepherd. It is a national treasure dog that Türkiye prohibits from selling abroad. It is also a giant dog raised by local herders specifically to fight off wolf packs."

My purebred Turkish Shepherd cost tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars to smuggle from Turkey to Hong Kong. Most people can't get one without my connections, even if they have the money, haha~

"I'm so proud of myself," said Boss Zhou.

He then reached out to touch the Kangal dog's head, but the Kangal dog, which had been sitting quietly, suddenly tensed its hind leg muscles and let out a low growl.

Upon seeing this, the martial arts masters watching immediately burst into laughter.

"What's the use of bragging if the dog doesn't obey?"

"that is."

Feeling embarrassed, Boss Zhou yelled, "What are you laughing at, you bunch of bastards? It's none of your business!"

Seeing Boss Zhou lose his temper, the martial arts instructors who were watching quickly dispersed.

Boss Zhou then turned to look at Wen Zhilan and said with an awkward smile:

"Haha, I just brought this big dog home a couple of days ago, and it's not tamed yet..."

Wen Zhilan glanced at Boss Zhou with disdain, too lazy to pay him any attention, and turned to leave.

"Hey, beautiful girl!"

When Boss Zhou saw that Wen Zhilan ignored him, he became furious and kicked the dog.

"You damn dog, you're just like that Casillo, you don't give me any face at all. What's the use of spending so much money to buy you!"

Awooo!

Before Boss Zhou could kick it, the giant dog leaped up and bit Boss Zhou's hand.

That bite, with the force of over 700 pounds, instantly bit off two of Boss Zhou's fingers.

"ah--!"

As soon as Wen Zhilan heard the scream and turned around, she saw the calf-sized dog rushing towards her uncontrollably.

"Miss Wen, watch out!"

Huang Zhengli, who was discussing the script with Director Yuan in the distance, was terrified when he saw the Kangal dog, which had lost control due to stress, rush towards Wen Zhilan. He broke out in a cold sweat.

If Wen Zhilan were to get into any trouble in Qingshan Road, not only would her acting career be over, but the entire Qingshan Road area would never be able to open for business again!

This is absolutely a fatal blow to the Hong Kong action and kung fu film industry, which had just begun to rebuild after Bruce Lee's passing!

However, Huang Zhengli was too far away at the moment and could not get there in time. He could only watch helplessly as the kangaroo pounced on Wen Zhilan.

The blood and spittle flying from the giant dog's mouth, along with the stench wafting towards her, left Wen Zhilan's mind blank.

At this moment, one's innate wealth, status, identity... all external things are of no use.

She could only watch as the dog's fangs grew larger and larger in her eyes.

Wen Zhilan realized that in the face of the most primal beasts, she, a young lady standing at the top of the social pyramid, was nothing more than a little white rabbit waiting to be slaughtered.

In the face of the most brutal violence, there's not even time to escape.

At this critical moment,

A figure rushed over like lightning!

call--

Push off the ground with one foot, power originates from the foot; twist the waist and turn the abdomen, power originates from the waist; sink the shoulders and drop the elbows, power flows to the fingertips!

Li Chang'an shifted his body, blocking the Kangal dog's path, and met its fierce, wild, deep brown eyes with a burning gaze.

With all his might gathered, his five fingers gripped the large dog's jaw joint like iron hooks.

Then, the knuckles snapped shut and the wrist twisted, unleashing the combined contraction and twisting force of Eagle Claw Fist.

There was a crisp "click" sound.

The dog's jaw was instantly dislocated by the grip, and its mouthful of sharp teeth, capable of crushing cow bones, could no longer close.

The saying goes, "To beat a man, first disarm him; to kill a wild beast, first trim its claws and teeth."

Animals with weapons and those without weapons are vastly different in terms of lethality.

Kangal dogs are known as the canines with the strongest bite force in the world. Even with Li Chang'an's current physical condition, he couldn't withstand the bite of an adult Kangal dog.

But for now, let's shut this big dog up...

For the first time since he began practicing martial arts, Li Chang'an's eyes flashed with murderous intent.

As the saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon will naturally harbor murderous intent."

After gaining power, Li Chang'an always wanted to vent his violence, but when facing people, even scum like Fei Zai Dong, he had to restrain himself because of the protection of the law.

However, Li Chang'an had no more worries when faced with a beast that would devour anyone it wanted!

Taking advantage of the Kangal dog's frantic head tilting back, Li Chang'an's right claw lashed out again, sweeping across like an iron hook, locking onto its soft throat.

With a twist and a grip of his five fingers, Li Chang'an crushed the dog's trachea and carotid artery!

The Kangal's eyes trembled first, then began to glaze over, and finally its body stiffened before it collapsed and fell silent.

Li Chang'an slowly pulled his blood-soaked hand out of the Kangal dog's throat.

He turned his head and looked down at Boss Zhou, who was lying on the ground clutching his severed hand, his face pale.

"I told you, your dog isn't properly leashed, so don't leash it anymore."
