City D.
It had been more than 4980 years since the incarnation of the Heavenly Axiom, the Emperor Armor, defeated the Five Elements Guardian.
19 years before the plot began.
In 1990, the discipline in D City was very bad.
Here, you could see long-haired hooligans humming songs and walking together in groups. You could also see tall and strong men with their upper bodies bare. They had tattoos of over-shoulder dragons, Guan Yu, tigers, carps, and so on.
That's right.
They were the leaders of the darkest gangs other than the law-enforcement officers.
In that era.
The law-enforcement officers colluded with the underworld. The inaction and indulgence of a large number of law-enforcement officers caused the underworld forces in D City to be at their peak. They formed gangs and fought to decide the ownership of a certain territory.
At night, if they were lucky, they could even see a gang fight between hundreds of people.
Drug trafficking, gambling dens, Happy Red Brothel, and so on were all methods used by some gangs to make money. The money earned was split 30 - 70, and 70% was handed over to the law-enforcement officers. The remaining 30% belonged to the underworld leaders.
D City, slums, Area A.
Unlike the prosperous areas, most of the people in the slums lived a life of hunger.
The buildings in the slums used to be old seven-story buildings. The rent was cheap, but because the equipment inside was old, no one cleaned it often, making the slums almost a gathering place for beggars.
No matter if it was the corridor or the walkway below, it was filled with garbage bags that no one had cleaned up.
Piles of mosquitoes and flies were buzzing around the roof. The interior of the house was even more miserable. As it was a slum that was about to be demolished, the iron windows and doors inside were already broken due to the accumulation of rust over time. It was easy to attract cockroaches in the dirty house.
"Gou Dan, you bastard, get lost.”
"I beg you, don't sell me to a brothel. I beg you, sob!”
"Get lost."
Pa da---
In the slums, such things happened every day, and many people were already used to it.
Zhang Daqiang, who lived in the basement of the slums, lived a life worse than a beggar. He was lazy and addicted to gambling. He originally had a good family, but he gambled everything away.
His wife divorced, his parents were furious, and he only left his daughter with him.
Lauren was his biological daughter, and Eggface was his adopted son.
In fact, Gou Dan didn't belong to this world. He came from a world called the 21st century. An accident brought him to this world.
That night.
Zhang Da Qiang was drunk again. When he returned home, he lost a lot of money from gambling. He took it out on Goudan and started punching and kicking him.
"I've worked so hard to raise you guys. Is it easy? And you, Goudan, you're a dog I picked up, understand? Just a dog. When you grow up, I'll sell you too.”
Zhang Da Qiang shouted as he held the stool and waved it at Gou Dan.
To him, Goudan was just a pet for him to vent his anger on.
Goudan didn't say a word. He just hugged his head and hunched over as he lay on the ground, letting the stool hit him.
The current him was only twelve years old. He could not defeat Zhang Daqiang at all.
Moreover, because he was starving every day, although Goudan was twelve years old now, he was practically skin and bones. He had no flesh at all, and every part of his body was bruised. Sometimes, he would even vomit blood from being beaten.
"Dad…"
"Sob, sob, sob. Stop hitting me." Zhang Lanlan sat at the side and cried loudly.
Seeing Gou Dan get beaten up, she couldn't help but cry.
"Shut up." Zhang Da Qiang seemed to have gone crazy. He threw the stool in his hand and strode towards Zhang Lan Lan. He raised his hand and slapped his daughter hard on the ground.
"Wuwuwu-"
This time, Zhang Lanlan cried even harder because of the pain.
Zhang Da Qiang was drunk. In addition, his nature was not good. How could he understand the truth that a tiger would not eat its cubs?
To put it bluntly, he was like a son to the black bosses outside and in the casino. No matter how others beat him, he could only beg for mercy. He even had to drink urine.
However, once he returned home.
Then he would vent his bad mood from losing money and being bullied on Goudan and Zhang Lanlan.
Zhang Lanlan wasn't too bad, as she hadn't slapped him many times. This slap was the most vicious one Goudan had seen in twelve years.
Goudan was the main punching bag.
"Cry, cry, cry. You only know how to cry. You eat and drink my food all day long. You can't help at all. What's the use of having you?”Zhang Da Qiang pointed at Zhang Lanlan and roared angrily," If you hurry up tomorrow, I'll sell you to a brothel as a prostitute. You can even earn some money for me every day."”
Goudan lay on the ground. His injuries were neither light nor heavy.
After so many years, he had long trained his ability to take hits. He only clenched his fists tightly. He really wanted to get up and punch this damn Zhang Daqiang to let him know that he was not easy to bully.
However, his body was weak, making him not Zhang Daqiang's match at all.
Now, he could only continue to endure.
In the past, Zhang Daqiang was not like this at all. In the recent year, Zhang Daqiang had become more and more ferocious, almost to the point of inhumanity.
When Zhang Lanlan heard that Zhang Daqiang was going to sell her, her tears flowed down like they were free. She looked at Eggface helplessly with tears in her eyes. In the entire family, Eggface was the one who protected her the most.
