Chapter 110 Stained Witness
```
With just one hand, he snapped a man's arm, and Xiaoge's arms were thick. To break them effortlessly without external help, how strong must his grip be?
Xiaoge only felt a surge of excruciating pain radiating from his arm, a pain that pierced to the core.
He wanted to scream, but Li Xiaoyao's grip on his throat made any sound impossible. All everyone could see was Xiaoge, his body violently trembling as Li Xiaoyao choked him.
"You have another arm and two legs. If you don't want them either, tell me, and I'll help you get rid of them," Li Xiaoyao said in an icy voice that instantly sobered Xiaoge. He knew this was a tough guy, and if he kept up his tough façade, he would truly be crippled.
Li Xiaoyao's hand around his throat loosened slightly and he asked, "Is Zhu Xiaoyue in your hands?"
Xiaoge didn't dare to waste any more words, nodding repeatedly and saying, "We have captured her."
Li Xiaoyao's eyes emitted a cold light, and with a flick of his hand, Xiaoge traced a parabola through the air and fell heavily onto the open space ten meters away.

Li Xiaoyao turned and walked towards Liu Yang, who was already petrified by the terrifying power Li Xiaoyao had demonstrated. When he saw him approaching, Liu Yang involuntarily stepped back.
"What do you want to do?" Liu Yang's voice was slightly shrill with fear.
Li Xiaoyao approached him calmly and said, "Zhang Family owes you money; I'm here to pay it back. Is that a problem?"
Would Liu Yang dare to say a word of refusal? Could he possibly provoke a man who would even offend Xiaoge?
Liu Yang shook his head vigorously, "No... no problem."
Li Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Good. Now, bring Meng Meng and Uncle Zhang out."
Liu Yang turned to his underling and said, "Go, bring the people down."
Zhang's father was in the inner room and immediately came out when called.
Seeing Li Xiaoyao at the door, Zhang's father was surprised, but quickly understood why Li Xiaoyao was there.
Li Xiaoyao smiled at Zhang's father and asked, "Uncle Zhang, have they done anything to you?"
Zhang's father looked at him with a curious gaze, thinking, you've come alone, and still ask such a question; don't you know this is Zhang Shan Village?
Before Zhang's father could speak, Liu Yang hastily said, "No, no, I had someone drive Uncle Zhang here myself; nobody dared to mistreat him."
Zhang's father, observing Liu Yang's ingratiating expression and the overeager tone to clear things up, couldn't help feeling astonished.
Who exactly was this Li Xiaoyao, to instill fear even in Liu Yang?
Soon, Zhang Meng was also brought down, but when she appeared, her eyes were red, and her cheeks bore five clear finger marks.
Li Xiaoyao's expression turned utterly grim, and Liu Yang, who had been watching carefully, felt a jolt in his heart and began retreating slowly.
But before he could take two steps back, Li Xiaoyao's piercing gaze was already shooting towards him as he asked sharply, "Did you hit her?"
Liu Yang's voice quivered as he started, "Boss, listen to my explanation..."
Li Xiaoyao was in no mood for explanations. He grabbed Liu Yang by the collar and gave him a flurry of slaps across the face.
Zhang Meng saw Li Xiaoyao standing at the door; it took her a while to believe it was true.
It wasn't until she saw Li Xiaoyao resort to violence against Liu Yang without a word that she was convinced this wasn't a dream.
Xiaoyao brother, he really came. He hadn't abandoned her after all.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The old lady inside heard the commotion outside and came out.

The old woman saw her grandson being bullied by a man and immediately got angry. Just as she was about to step in and pull Li Xiaoyao away, a woman suddenly grabbed the old woman and whispered the whole story into her ear.
Upon hearing it, the old woman learned that this man was actually a rogue brought back by her soon-to-be granddaughter-in-law and flew into a rage. Pointing at Zhang Meng, she cursed loudly, "You slut, you whore, you're already married to our Yangyang, yet you still seduce other men."
Li Xiaoyao heard the old woman's curses, casually threw Liu Yang on the ground, then glanced at the old woman, who was furious, and said, "Like mother, like son; your whole Liu family is fucking messed up from old to young."
Leaving those words behind, Li Xiaoyao, holding onto Zhang Meng's frail shoulders, walked with her father towards the Mercedes.
The old woman continued to curse behind them, but Li Xiaoyao simply paid her no heed.
"You guys sit in the car first. I'll be right back." After settling down the father and daughter, Li Xiaoyao walked up to Shrimp Brother, pulled him up from the ground, patted his face, and said, "Shrimp Brother, are you sober now? If not, I'll cripple your right hand too, to help you clear your head."
Shrimp Brother trembled all over, frightened, and immediately said, "Tell me, tell me, I'm listening."
Li Xiaoyao asked, "How many people are in your gang?"
Shrimp Brother spilled everything, "Thirty-seven. Four of us came here; the rest, thirty-three, are still at home."
Li Xiaoyao continued to ask, "Is Zhu Xiaoyue at your place?"
"Yes, at our home."
"What weapons does your family have?"
"We have..." Shrimp Brother hesitated and didn't speak for a long time.
Li Xiaoyao raised his hand and slapped him, then Shrimp Brother immediately said, "Guns and knives."
Li Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes, impressed. The gang was bigger than he expected, with even firearms in their possession.
"Are you sure you're not forgetting anything?" Li Xiaoyao stared into his eyes, as if he could see right through him.
Shrimp Brother's body stiffened and he said, "Boss, I don't know what you're talking about."
"You don't know? All right, then I'll remind you." Li Xiaoyao said, "A portion of the drugs circulating underground in Ling City, are they related to you?"
Shrimp Brother's eyes widened in shock and he said, "You're a cop!"
Li Xiaoyao smiled and said, "I'll give you two options. First, become an informant and assist the police in cracking this case. The police will acknowledge your contribution afterward. Second, rot in jail. Which one will you choose?"
Shrimp Brother felt his heart grow cold. He could never have imagined that attending a wedding would end up with him being implicated.
But on second thought, if he became an informant, he might be able to avoid prison.
A few seconds later, Shrimp Brother clenched his teeth and said, "I'll be an informant."
Li Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Congratulations on making the right choice. Now, call your people and tell them all to stay at home. Also, don't touch Zhu Xiaoyue. If even a single hair on Zhu Xiaoyue's head is harmed, I'll hold you accountable."
Shrimp Brother said bitterly, "I'm just a runner in the gang, and besides, one of the bosses has already taken a liking to that policewoman."
"Fuck, why didn't you say so earlier?!" Li Xiaoyao gave him another slap and then dragged him to the Mercedes, throwing him into the passenger seat.
After getting into the car, Li Xiaoyao asked, "Which way?"
Shrimp Brother said, "You can't drive this car; if the people at home see an unfamiliar car, they will immediately run."
Li Xiaoyao looked at him, realizing that Shrimp Brother was quite intelligent, truly considering himself as an informant now.
