The Chen Family mbers walked out of the private room, and the leading elder imdiately frowned and said sternly, "Hong’er, call all the industries under your na right away and tell them to be on alert. Don’t be negligent!"
"Why?" Chen Benhong asked in surprise.
The composed elder glared at him and said, "Su Yang isn’t here, but Lü Donglin is. So where do you think Su Yang would be?"
"This..." Chen Benhong’s expression changed, and he hurriedly said, "You an to say that Lü Donglin is actually here to distract us, and Su Yang is actually targeting my industries? He... he wouldn’t dare to do that, right? Those are Chen Family’s assets. If he sses around, won’t that an a full-on war with our Chen Family?"
"What’s ’dare’ or ’not dare’?" the composed elder said softly. "At this point, when you’ve brought so many people to kill him, do you think he still has any concerns?"
Chen Benhong’s face changed again, and without hesitating, he imdiately made calls to his subordinates, telling them to protect his industries.
The Chen Family had many assets in Capital City, and among them, so were very critical to the Chen Family. Not only had the Chen Family invested a lot of capital in these industries, but they had also deployed a considerable number of people. If these key assets were attacked, it would be a significant loss to the Chen Family!
The first few phone calls were fine, but the fourth call rang several tis without an answer. Chen Benhong’s heart started to race, and just as he was about to send soone to check, the call finally got through.
"Fuck you, you bastard, how dare you not answer my call, do you want to die?" Chen Benhong shouted angrily into the phone.
There was no response from the other end, making Chen Benhong even more furious as he shouted, "Bastard, didn’t you hear speak? What the hell are you playing dead for? If you don’t speak now, I’ll make sure you’ll never speak in this lifeti!"
After a while, an icy voice finally ca from the other end, "You can co collect the bodies now!"
Chen Benhong was taken aback at first, then his face paled as he rushed to ask, "You... who are you?"
"What do you think?" the voice on the phone said coldly.
"Are you Su Yang?" Chen Benhong’s eyes bulged out, as he asked urgently, "How... how are you there?"
Everyone around Chen Benhong also looked over, and their expressions changed as well. If the person on the phone was Su Yang, wasn’t it clear what had happened?
Su Yang didn’t answer, and Chen Benhong grew angrier as he warned, "Su Yang, I’m warning you, the issues between us are our own, don’t involve my family. If there’s a problem, let’s solve it ourselves. If you attack my family’s properties, that’s like declaring war on the entire Chen Family. Do you understand the consequences?"
"Our issues, then let’s have a duel between us. You’ve brought so many experts from the Chen Family, and you say you don’t involve your family, do you even believe that yourself?" Su Yang retorted coldly.
Chen Benhong was at a loss for words and said in annoyance, "Su Yang, I’m not going to waste words with you. If you’re capable, co out and fight one-on-one, let’s settle our grudges once and for all!"
"We’ve already fought..." Su Yang replied coldly, "And I’ve seen what kind of person you are. One-on-one? Hmph, I know very well what kind of people are in the Chen Family; a one-on-one fight is impossible!"
Chen Benhong was extrely irritated but had nothing to say. After the battle at Purple Lotus Garden, he had indeed lost face and credibility, and now wanting to talk to Su Yang about a one-on-one fight was just not possible anymore.
"Su, if I catch you, I’ll make sure you wish you were dead!" Chen Benhong roared.
"Likewise!" Su Yang returned coldly and hung up the phone directly.
Chen Benhong, in a fit of rage, yelled, "Quick, imdiately follow to Shengyun Tower, that bastard Su is there!"
The people looked at each other, and the composed elder said solemnly, "Is it still in ti to go to Shengyun Tower now? He was able to answer your call, which ans Shengyun Tower is probably already done for. Even if we go there, it would be a fruitless trip. We better make sure other places are secure to avoid being ambushed by that Su!"
"Then... then what do we do?" Chen Benhong asked anxiously.
"Wait and see!" the composed elder spoke in a deep voice, "The urgent matter now is to find that Su. Otherwise, if we let him continue making trouble, our losses will only get bigger."
"It’s not easy to find him; he could be hiding anywhere," Chen Benhong said urgently, "These past few days, nearly 70% of the families and forces in the city have co out to help us look for him, but we haven’t found him. It’s still going to be very difficult for us to find him now!"
"Difficult perhaps, but that’s the only way now!" the composed elder said.
Chen Benhong thought for a mont and whispered, "I’ve heard that this Su has quite a few family mbers and friends in Pingnan Province. Plus, he’s soone who values relationships very much; he takes his family and friends very seriously. If we could capture his family and friends, Su would definitely co out to et us obediently. By then, he can’t fly even if he had wings!"
"Don’t even think about it!" the composed elder said sternly, "Pingnan Province isn’t as simple as you think. It’s guarded by Ye Jiansheng; it’s not a place anyone can just go and make trouble. Furthermore, this Su Yang isn’t simple. Since he dares to make such a big commotion in Capital City, do you think he hasn’t taken any precautions in Pingnan Province? If he has set any traps and you send people over, wouldn’t that be courting death? Do you think we haven’t suffered enough losses here in Capital City?"
Chen Benhong paused, thinking his plan was very good, so why was it t with such opposition?
"Uncle Jiu, although Ye Jiansheng guards Pingnan Province, he is, after all, a Terrestrial Immortal. We will certainly not send Earthly Immortal Realm experts to capture people. If we really go to seize soone, Ye Jiansheng can only stand by and watch," Chen Benhong said urgently. "Plus, even if Su Yang is cautious, what sort of experts does Pingnan Province have? Look across Pingnan Province, not a single person has broken through The Sovereign’s bottleneck. If we send just one person who has broken through The Sovereign’s bottleneck, we could easily slaughter them. What use would their traps be? Strength is everything!"
"Chen Benhong, don’t underestimate the heroes of the world!" the composed elder said sternly, "Pingnan Province is not as simple as you think. Neither is Ye Jiansheng that simple. And what about Su Yang? If you hadn’t underestimated his strength, would we be in the situation we are now? Regardless of the plans you have, stop them right now. Rember, to deal with this Su Yang, we must be steady. Otherwise, the Chen Family’s losses will only grow bigger!"
