Chapter 112: Zhi Mi Arrives at the Scene!

~6 min read 1,126 words

The Battle Club manager didn't know exactly what had happened, so seeing this scene left him stunned.

"Lord Ash, this…"

"Ash!?"

Beside the restaurant wall, Zhi Shu, looking like a dead dog, suddenly widened his eyes, his face turning pale,

It's over!

In the past he could oppress these people with great righteousness and overwhelming circumstances,

Although he had only heard of Ash, Zhi Shu understood that a Duke like Ash was certainly not someone he could suppress merely with a modest status as a relative of the Heavenly King,

Moreover, his older brother was not a bully of men and tyrant of women, but rather unusually approachable.

He could not stand such oppression of men and tyranny over women,

If the other side were to learn of his deeds over the years, thinking of the countless lives, families shattered, people dead, wives separated and children scattered under his pressure,

Cold sweat broke out across Zhi Shu's forehead with a swish, and he fainted from the intense emotion.

Meanwhile,

The restaurant manager, locked in the back kitchen by the Rocket Team before Ash could explain, fearing the supervisor would wrongfully accuse a good person,

and also fearing the Club would be unable to operate if it offended the Duke, suddenly spoke up.

"Supervisor, there is a reason for this; I am a witness."

"Security, maintain order at the scene."

The matter involved the Duke, and the Club manager had already recognized that Zhi Shu's appearance bore some resemblance to Zhi Mi's.

Realizing the seriousness of the situation,

the Club manager hurriedly ordered security to keep order while dispersing the onlookers.

Ash watched silently, letting everything unfold without intervening.

For him,

As long as it was verified that Zhi Shu was not acting for the first time in such oppression of men and tyranny over women, he would inevitably put the other party to death, with no possibility of leniency.

At the same time, clarifying Zhi Mi's character and whether she had taken part in her brother's dirty deeds was also a crucial part.

To lure Zhi Mi into proving herself, a suitable setting was required.

Otherwise, with a crowd surrounding and cameras rolling, any sensible Zhi Mi would choose a heroic self‑destruction, wiping herself out completely.

As security cleared all unrelated persons from the Club,

the restaurant manager at that moment also stepped out of the back kitchen,

seeing Zhi Shu, who minutes earlier had been arrogant, defying all law, now looking half‑dead,

and then looking at the two fallen bodyguards and the two muscular men cowering in the corner trembling.

With the great revenge achieved and inner justice upheld,

the restaurant manager's hatred, born from being knocked down and humiliated, vanished completely,

so exhilarating, yet so violent.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he could hardly believe this was the power of a single human punch.

So his gaze toward Zhi Shu even showed sympathy; it was truly too tragic.

Afterward, the restaurant manager hurriedly recounted every detail he knew, leaving nothing out.

After hearing the old manager's account of Zhi Shu's oppression of men and tyranny over women, his lawless deeds, the bodyguards' skilled actions, and Zhi Shu's rather mature verbal threats,

a visible flash of disgust crossed the supervisor's face, deepening his astonishment,

hard to imagine that such a scoundrel could be the brother of the refined, approachable, kind, and artistically graceful Chef Zhi Mi.

"Rest assured, my lord Duke, even if Chef Zhi Mi herself is the Heavenly King's presence, we and the Club's surveillance will be your witnesses."

In his words, the supervisor's address shifted from the familiar 'Chef Zhi Mi' to the title 'Heavenly King.'

"Exactly! We will restore your innocence!"

Tierno immediately pledged to testify for Ash, her eyes filled with gratitude, admiration, and relief!

If Ash hadn't arrived, the consequences were unimaginable; perhaps she would already be dead now, or living a fate worse than death, defiled by that disgusting guy.

"No!"

Facing the two's firm support, Ash shook his head.

"Later, you will claim ignorance, act fearful and submissive, leave everything else to the restaurant manager, and you doing this…"

Upon hearing Ash's specific instructions, Tierno's beautiful eyes widened,

"How can that work? Won't this put you at a disadvantage?"

The Club supervisor and Serena and the others also looked bewildered, not understanding Ash's plan.

"This?"

Seeing Ash's serious demeanor, everyone finally decided to follow his orders.

…

About half an hour later,

Zhi Mi and Furadali rode together in a helicopter to Carlos Canyon,

Seeing the Battle Club gate crowded with a noisy throng, both furrowed their brows.

What further astonished Zhi Mi was,

when he and Furadali tried to pass through, the gazes cast at them were no longer the former admiration and fondness,

but rather more disgust and fear.

This was not good,

just thinking that Ash was still waiting, Zhi Mi suppressed her unease and hurried into the Battle Club.

It was Furadali who, after seeing everyone's reaction, understood everything in his heart.

"The Heavenly King Zhi Mi has arrived!"

The club manager, who had memorized Ash's instructions, immediately greeted Zhi Mi warmly the moment he saw him.

Tierno, on the other hand, wore a pitiful, meek expression.

Zhi Mi looked at the shattered restaurant glass, the fallen black‑clad bodyguard, his brother lying helpless by the wall, and his complexion darkened in an instant.

"What happened?"

With information cut off and unaware of the full events, he managed to restrain himself from lashing out at Ash—truly his cultivation was at work.

"I… I don't know!" remembering Ash's orders, the manager suddenly acted confused, clearly a genius at feigning bewilderment.

"Duke Ash, I have no idea what my brother did to provoke you to such a ruthless act. In any case, I'll apologize on his behalf first, but…"

Thinking of his brother's obedient nature at home, Zhi Mi, who could not imagine the other side committing any evil, felt a flash of indignation on his face.

Thinking of his younger brother's obedient nature at home, Zhi Mi truly doesn't think the other party could do any evil, and a hint of indignation also involuntarily appears on Zhi Mi's face.

Zhi Mi gradually clenched his fists; as a Heavenly King with a lofty perspective, he could naturally see Ash's strength, far beyond the level of a baby‑cup Champion.

He was a genuine Heavenly King Champion‑level master,

yet as long as he occupied the moral high ground, even if his power was inferior, Zhi Mi would still fight for pride.

However, this scene, observed by Furadali, who had long known the misdeeds of the Zhi technique, made him feel…

…perhaps it should be described as pitiful?

Hm, perhaps it should be called pitiful?
