Chapter 237

"Is Luoshen really a member of the Barbarian God Legion? No way—he just switched careers a few days ago, and now he's already a member?"

"He's never made sense to begin with—when has anyone in Donghai City ever beaten up the enforcement team in broad daylight?"

"Family power struggles… we dare not move, but Luoshen fears nothing—that's true manhood!"

"Could that bald giant also be a disguised member of the Barbarian God Legion, playing along with Luo Chenyu?"

"Idiot…"

"Just now, Luoshen called out Leng Long from afar—could Leng Long be the mastermind behind this whole farce? Who is he, and why is he targeting Luoshen?"

"Leng… could it be the Leng family?"

"Tsk tsk tsk… this elite circle is such a mess!"

"Watch your tongue—if anyone hears, you'll regret it."

……

At this moment, public opinion at the parking lot had already erupted, with wild speculations and self-proclaimed "truth-seekers" speaking out.

Inside the Lingyun Pavilion.

Several figures stood silently on the hidden windowsill, gazing far off at everything happening in the parking lot.

"Pavilion Master, are we really not going to intervene in this matter?"

The middle-aged man in the brocade robe frowned in confusion and asked the white-haired elder beside him.

"Intervene?"

The white-haired elder's face twisted with mockery as he said coolly, "You're just trying to curry favor with the Leng family, aren't you?"

"Pavilion Master… I… I didn't mean that!"

The brocade-robed middle-aged man's heart lurched—he grew flustered and dared not meet the white-haired elder's eyes.

"Ling Lan, I'm old, but my eyes aren't blind. It's fine if you're close to the Leng family, but there are some people even you and the Leng family cannot offend!"

"Take responsibility for today's incident yourself… I hope that little brat, Luo Chenyu, shows mercy on account of Lingsu and lets you off."

"This…"

Seeing the white-haired elder's firm stance, the brocade-robed man felt a moment of regret.

But…

His trust in the Leng family remained high.

No matter how powerful the Barbarian God Legion is, they wouldn't dare storm the Leng family's mansion!

That's one of Donghai City's top ten families!

………………

"Young Master…"

The door to a private suite in a nearby building opened, and a middle-aged man hurried inside.

"Failed?"

Leng Long sneered, "Those useless fools couldn't even handle a newcomer—let them deal with it themselves."

"Young Master, something's very wrong!"

The middle-aged man hesitated, then continued: "Little Master Su is with Luo Chenyu—they seem very close, and he intervened too."

"Su Feng?"

Leng Long's sneer froze; his brow furrowed. "Why is he here? Wasn't it just Luo Chenyu and Ye Xingtong?"

"I don't know… but Luo Chenyu has definitely joined the Barbarian God Legion. He also said… said…"

The middle-aged man stammered, unable to speak the words.

"The Barbarian God Legion? Already? What did he say?"

Leng Long showed a flicker of surprise.

He'd read the legends about "Luoshen" as entertainment news, never taking them seriously—he assumed the man was just a probationary member.

He hadn't expected… he'd joined so fast.

"Luo Chenyu said for you to come apologize and admit your fault—or he'll bring the Barbarian God Legion to crush the Leng family!"

"Hahahaha…"

Leng Long laughed wildly, not in anger but in derision. "Who the hell is this clown? A brand-new recruit in the Barbarian God Legion dares to say he'll 'lead' people to crush the Leng family?"

"I thought he was just a brute—turns out he's a complete idiot."

"Send the enforcement team to shut him up. Launch a smear campaign—destroy his reputation completely!"

The middle-aged man blinked, trembling: "Uh… they already moved… and got beaten by Luo Chenyu."

Leng Long: "…"

The brute's actions exceeded his imagination.

He had a feeling… no further action from him was even needed.

This was too easy—no satisfaction at all!

Thinking of this, Leng Long's smile grew even broader.

Just then.

The luxurious mana-powered phone on the table rang.

Caller ID: Old Man!

Leng Long paused, then quickly answered: "Hello, Dad!"

"You're at the Lingyun Pavilion…"

"How do you know?"

"What…? You want me to apologize to that brute? Are you serious?"

"Alright, I understand. I'll buy some time…"

Leng Long bit down hard on Yaguan and hung up the phone. His face instantly turned so dark it was almost the color of pork liver.

Never would he have guessed… the father who had always shielded him was now actually backing down!!

And backing down so decisively, at that.

If he didn't go, he would no longer be a direct-line member of the Leng family.

………………

Time slipped away, second by second.

Luo Chenyu's face was cold as he stared straight ahead at the members of the enforcement squad. Countless doubts filled his mind, yet no explanation was forthcoming.

But…

Right now, he didn't need those explanations either.

His only thought was to vent the pent-up frustration in his heart.

"Brother Luo!"

Jin Gang hung up the phone in his hand and said, "The captain of the enforcement squad for this area will be here any moment."

"He Tian?"

"You know him?" Jin Gang was stunned for a moment. "Did he offend you too? He Tian may be muddle-headed, but he's an upright, incorruptible person, you…"

"Brother Jin Gang, you've got the wrong idea. He Tian helped me out a few days ago — he's a really good person!"

"Phew!" Jin Gang let out a breath, as if his whole body had relaxed, and said, "That's good then!"

Seeing this, Luo Chenyu was speechless.

Too?

He made it sound as if Luo Chenyu were petty and narrow-minded.

And at this moment.

Facing Ye Xingtong stood behind Luo Chenyu, also saying nothing. What she felt more of now was worry for Luo Chenyu, afraid he would blow things up and make them impossible to wrap up neatly.

But then again…

Right now, she had absolutely no means to stop these schemes.

Her grandfather might have been able to, but when facing these great families, even the vice president of the Mofagong Society had to give them some face and couldn't let things spiral out of control.
