Chapter 133: A Fish Dies and the Net Breaks

Swish!

Chen Che moved with extreme speed; as the sound of him breaking the air reached his ears, Zhang Shouhang was greatly alarmed, subconsciously grabbing Qiao Ming, who was closest to him, and pushing him to the front.

Qiao Ming was instantly filled with astonishment, but his expression froze in that very moment.

"Slap!"

Chen Che backhanded him with a slap, sending Qiao Ming flying; Qiao Ming's eyes rolled back immediately, and he breathed his last.

Chen Che's actions were completely uninterrupted; having casually dealt with Qiao Ming, he reached out toward Zhang Shouhang once again.

However, the Martial Artists who had been controlling Cheng Kexin and the others released the four women one after another and swarmed toward Chen Che together to stop him from harming Zhang Shouhang!

"All of you, die!!!"

The anger at seeing those close to him suffer humiliation meant Chen Che did not hold back at all; he stretched out his limbs and unleashed his True Qi without restraint.

"Puff!"

The overbearing and savage True Qi quickly engulfed the six or seven Martial Artists who had swarmed up, instantly blasting them into a mist of blood.

Seeing this, everyone present was shocked!

The guests were all stunned, looking at Chen Che with expressions of utter disbelief!

Most of them were ordinary people who couldn't understand how Chen Che had attacked at all, but as they were of noble status, they had seen their fair share of Martial Artists; yet, they had almost never seen anyone who could blast people into a blood mist using only True Qi!

How powerful must a person be to achieve such a level?!

Cheng Honglin, Cheng Weijun, and Hou Huili were also stunned; they had previously only known that Chen Che was a Martial Artist with decent strength, but they hadn't expected his strength to be this formidable!

This sparked a glimmer of luck and hope in their hearts, hoping that Chen Che could truly save them and get them out.

Zhang Sheng and his two sons also stared with wide eyes, their hearts filled with horror.

The Martial Artists killed by Chen Che were at least Seventh Grade at their weakest, and they had the advantage in numbers, yet they had died without even being able to touch Chen Che!

And they died so thoroughly that not even a scrap remained!

The strength Chen Che displayed exceeded their expectations; they knew Chen Che possessed some kind of Secret Technique that could boost his strength through acupuncture, but they hadn't expected this Secret Technique to be so powerful!

It was true that Zhang Shouhang hated Chen Che to the bone, but because of the incident at Jingming Bar, he had also developed a stress response toward Chen Che.

At this moment, seeing his subordinates die such a bizarre and miserable death at Chen Che's hands, he was so terrified that he lost his soul; his previous arrogance vanished completely, replaced by a pale complexion and eyes that looked as if he were seeing a demon from hell.

"Grandfather—"

Zhang Shouhang's legs went weak as he looked toward Zhang Sheng, Zhang Yili, and Zhang Yimin not far away, attempting to call for help.

However, Chen Che didn't give him the chance at all; he flashed before him with a swish, grabbed him by the neck, and lifted him off the ground.

"Stop!"

"Chen Che, how dare you?!"

"You little brat, put my grandson down!"

Seeing Zhang Shouhang in danger, Zhang Sheng and his two sons were all terrified and spoke up to threaten and stop him.

Chen Che gave a disdainful cold snort and said, "I came here today to deliver a clock to the Zhang Family. I originally intended to give it only to the Patriarch, but now I've changed my mind!"

Chen Che turned around, swung his arm in a full circle, and Zhang Shouhang flew out rapidly like an arrow.

"Clang!!!"

Zhang Shouhang crashed into the ancient clock, his head broken and bleeding.

"Son!"

Zhang Yili let out a cry, ran back in a panic, and picked up Zhang Shouhang to check his condition.

At this moment, Chen Che turned around, used his True Qi to cut the collars off the four women's necks, and said with an apologetic face, "I'm sorry, I'm late."

The four women shook their heads in unison; they didn't speak, but looked at him with eyes full of tenderness, as if they could feel at ease and satisfied just by doing so.

"Chen Che, we've been poisoned with Chaotic Qi Powder; use the Ghost Gate Needle to help us clear it!"

Li Qingyan said quickly.

Chen Che frowned: "What is that?"

"It's a drug used by the Inspection Bureau to interrogate prisoners. I've already figured out its mechanism of action in the human body; perform the acupuncture according to my instructions."

With the help of Qian Rongrong, Li Qingyan sat cross-legged; Chen Che immediately took out the Ghost Gate Needle and, following Li Qingyan's instructions, inserted the needles into her corresponding acupoints.

In less than three minutes, the Chaotic Qi Powder in Li Qingyan's body was completely expelled, and Chen Che followed the same method to help Cheng Kexin clear hers as well.

"Master, what about me..."

Because her body was weak, Shen Qi was still lying under the table; she struggled to lift her head and called out to Chen Che.

"Shoo!"

Chen Che backhanded a Ghost Gate Needle, hitting the acupoint on Shen Qi's body; Shen Qi immediately felt her whole body relax.

"Son, son! Wake up, don't scare me!"

Zhang Yili held Zhang Shouhang, who was covered in blood and on the verge of death.

"You bastard, I'm going to kill you!"

Grief made Zhang Yili furious; he looked up and glared at Chen Che, his eyes filled with a desire to tear him to pieces.

"Kid, you are the first person to deliver a clock to me, and you are also the first person to dare to run wild in the Zhang Family."

Zhang Sheng stood up, his face gloomy as he looked at Chen Che, "Do you think you can act lawlessly just because you have a Secret Technique? Don't forget, the Inspection Bureau exists to manage Martial Artists.

I don't know how you managed to avoid Du Chuan's trap and come here instead, but as long as I make a phone call now, Du Chuan will immediately bring men to surround this place, and you and them will all die here!"

Chen Che gave a cold snort and said, "The Patriarch of the Zhang Family is truly getting on in years; your brain isn't working well anymore. There is another possibility for why I appeared here; just because you don't believe it, doesn't mean it isn't true!"

Hearing this, Zhang Sheng, Zhang Yili, and Zhang Yimin were all stunned.

That's right!

When they saw Chen Che, in their shock, they had subjectively assumed that Chen Che had not gone to meet Du Chuan.

As for the specific situation, they couldn't figure it out, nor did it matter.

Because in their view, if Chen Che had truly been coerced by Du Chuan using his family to attend the appointment, it would be impossible for him to be unscathed, let alone appear here!

However, Chen Che's next words confirmed the possibility they had deemed impossible in their hearts.

"Du Chuan has already been brought to justice and taken away by people from Beijing, and the evidence of the Zhang Family colluding with the Martial Arts Alliance has been made public; it should already be on the news by now."

Chen Che's tone was calm, yet the words he spoke exploded like a thunderclap.

Everyone present was shocked and stunned once again!

The guests who were unaware all widened their eyes, unable to believe what they had just heard!

Some people hurriedly took out their phones to search and verify, but upon seeing the trending search terms, they exclaimed out loud:

"It's actually true! It's an official message from the Beijing Patrol Justice Department! Du Chuan and the Zhang Family colluded with the Martial Arts Alliance, the evidence is conclusive, Du Chuan has already been sent to Beijing, and the position of Magic City Patrol Department Director is being temporarily held by... by Commander Cheng Kexin, who is responsible for handling the Zhang Family's affairs!"

"My God, I see it too, it's actually true!"

"I never imagined the Zhang Family would do such a thing; to think we kept siding with them, we were truly blind!"

"Now that Miss Cheng is the Patrol Justice Department Director, it looks like the one to be wiped out from Shanghai today is the Zhang Family!"

"Let's quickly stand over there; we cannot associate with evil, we must support justice! Miss Cheng, we support you, we support the Cheng Family!"

Seeing that the Zhang Family's mansion was about to collapse, the guests did a one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn in their attitudes, defecting one after another to express their stance, currying favor with Cheng Kexin and denouncing the Zhang Family.

As for Cheng Honglin, Cheng Weijun, and Hou Huili, they were beaming with joy, and the worries in their hearts completely dissipated.

They hurried to stand behind Cheng Kexin; as of now, Cheng Kexin's status was the safest guarantee, as the Patrol Justice Department Director represented one of the highest powers in Shanghai.

The Zhang Family father and son also immediately took out their phones to check, and when they confirmed the news issued from Beijing, they felt despair in their hearts.

In this way, the Zhang Family was truly doomed beyond redemption!

"Hehehe~~"

Zhang Sheng laughed grimly, slowly raised his head, and looked at the culprit behind all of this—Chen Che.

He praised from the bottom of his heart: "I didn't expect that even with Du Chuan and me joining forces, we still couldn't defeat a mere brat like you; the younger generation is truly formidable."

"Hmph!"

Chen Che sneered and did not speak.

"Since it's like this, then all of you can be buried with the Zhang Family!"

Zhang Sheng shouted loudly, his expression suddenly becoming ferocious and terrifying.

Now that everything was over, he decided to fight to the death, determined to drag Chen Che and the others down with him before he died!

"Kill them for me!"

At Zhang Sheng's command, the Martial Artists standing by in the banquet hall moved quickly, releasing their True Qi one after another and launching an attack on everyone in the banquet hall!
