Chapter 270: Kneel Down for Me

"Do you dare to let me make a phone call?"

Gu Yao swept a glance at the Martial Artist bodyguards lying on the ground and spoke.

"Is Young Master Gu trying to call for reinforcements?"

Chen Che asked back with a playful tone.

"I admit you have some ability and some backbone, and it's been a long time since I've met someone as interesting as you. Since we've already become enemies, let's settle it all at once."

Gu Yao said, "Anyway, regardless of whether you break my legs today, someone from the Gu Family will come to settle the score with you tomorrow. Rather than it being a hassle, it's better to solve it all today."

"That makes sense; I don't like trouble either."

Chen Che said in agreement.

Gu Yao took out his phone, looked at Chen Che, and said with a sinister gaze, "Believe me, today I will definitely have you and the Scorpion Society wiped off the face of this earth!"

Chen Che revealed a careless smile, his eyes filled with indifferent contempt.

This attitude and look caused Gu Yao great humiliation once again. He suppressed his anger and dialed the number of his father, Gu Zhangsheng.

"Dad, I'm at Weilaiju Restaurant, and I've been beaten!"

As soon as the call connected, Gu Yao began to complain at the top of his lungs.

"What? Who is so bold as to dare to hit you?! They really don't want to live anymore!"

Gu Zhangsheng said in shock and anger.

"It's that Chen Che who has a conflict with the Huang Family. He actually refused to sell the Scorpion Society to me, hit me, and even demanded I pay him tens of millions in mental damages, otherwise he'd break my legs!"

Gu Yao said quickly.

"What?!"

Gu Zhangsheng shouted in disbelief.

"Dad, hurry up and send more people, or come yourself. I want to kill him!"

Gu Yao glared fiercely at Chen Che and said.

"Chen Che?! A thug from the underworld dares to stir up trouble on the head of Tai Sui? It's been a long time since I've seen someone so tired of living. Tell him to wait for me; I'm coming right now!"

The call ended. Gu Yao stared at Chen Che and said, "Alright, people are coming right away. If you have the guts, just wait here."

Chen Che shrugged indifferently and said, "Of course I won't run, but before they arrive, the three of you must wait on your knees."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of everyone present changed instantly; clearly, no one expected Chen Che to make such a demand!

Gu Yao's expression turned even gloomier, his mouth twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "Don't go too far!"

"What? Do you need me to help you?"

Chen Che turned a deaf ear and asked.

"You!"

Gu Yao was filled with towering rage, yet he simultaneously knew clearly that Chen Che was a Martial Artist; if he made a move, they would have absolutely no possibility of resisting.

But letting him kneel was also absolutely impossible; this did not just represent his own face, but the face of the Gu Family!

"Heh heh..."

At this moment, Ding Xu let out a few sinister laughs. He took out the Seal from his mouth and stood up, supporting himself on the ground with both hands.

"Want me to kneel? Dream on! Chen Che, I will definitely kill you today!"

The pain and humiliation of his broken leg drove Ding Xu mad. As he spoke, he took a box of pills from his pocket and gulped them all down into his mouth.

Chen Che's brows twitched violently. With a 'whoosh', he flashed over and gripped Ding Xu's chin tightly, yet a few pills had already been swallowed.

"Bang!"

Chen Che acted decisively, quickly punching Ding Xu in the stomach. Ding Xu let out a 'wah' and vomited a pool of sour water onto the ground, along with the pills he had just swallowed.

"Yo, look what I've found."

Chen Che tossed Ding Xu onto the ground and poured a white pill out of the bottle. He sniffed it; the scent was almost identical to the Pill of the Martial Arts Alliance.

"To think that the dignified Ding Family actually consumes this kind of thing. Then, do the Gu Family and the Huang Family have it too?"

Chen Che looked meaningfully at Gu Yao and Huang Shengming.

Gu Yao and Huang Shengming's expressions remained normal; they were not panicked at all.

"That's just a common health supplement; it doesn't prove anything."

Gu Yao said.

Chen Che shrugged and said, "I guessed you wouldn't say. Since that's the case, let your old man explain it. Now, all of you... kneel."

As soon as his voice fell, a tyrannical aura descended in an instant. Thump, thump, thump...

Gu Yao, Huang Shengming, and Ding Xu all knelt and collapsed onto the ground. The sound of kneecaps cracking rang out, and the next second, the three men's screams echoed through the restaurant one after another.

………

After hanging up the phone, Gu Zhangsheng was furious and called for men, intending to go and teach a painful lesson to the bastard who dared to offend the Gu Family.

However, Gu Zhangsheng's massive mobilization alarmed Gu Zhengying.

Gu Zhengying was the eldest son of Gu Yuanzong and Gu Zhangsheng's older brother.

Seeing Gu Zhangsheng looking like he wanted to eat someone, Gu Zhengying asked, "What happened?"

"Big brother, A-Yao was beaten, and by a Martial Artist at that. I'm taking men to go kill him right now!"

Gu Zhangsheng said.

"A-Yao was beaten? Who is so bold as to dare to hit someone from the Gu Family?"

Gu Zhengying furrowed his brows and asked.

"His name is Chen Che, the brat who made the Huang Family stumble before."

Gu Zhangsheng explained.

"Chen Che..."

Gu Zhengying muttered, pondering something.

"Alright, enough said, Big Brother is going and will be right back."

Seeing that the people had been gathered, Gu Zhangsheng prepared to go and hold someone accountable.

Gu Zhengying stopped him at this moment and said, "Don't be in such a rush; this matter still needs to be handled with a cool head."

Gu Zhangsheng asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"I have also heard of that Chen Che; for him to be able to make the Huang Family suffer at such a young age, he certainly has some ability. If you go rashly like this, you will very likely fall into his trap."

Gu Zhangsheng dismissed this: "What kind of ability could a green kid have? Before, it was nothing more than him having good luck. Gu Yao was beaten; if I don't go and teach him a lesson, then not only will our father-son reputation be lost, but the Gu Family's reputation will be lost along with it. How would we be able to command the other families in Jinling in the future?!"

"The Gu Family indeed does not need to fear a green kid, but this kid just recently took over the Scorpion Society and defeated the Huang Family; he is currently at a point where he is full of himself and arrogant. It is not surprising that he would overestimate his own strength and provoke the Gu Family, but we cannot play along with him right now."

Gu Zhangsheng grew a bit impatient: "Big Brother, what exactly do you mean?"

"Have you forgotten what Dad said before? The night of the full moon is approaching, and the most important thing right now is the matter of the Ritual. Dad also told us both to prepare for the Altar as soon as possible."

Gu Zhengying said, "The matter of the Altar is not yet finished, and furthermore, Dad does not allow any mistakes in the Ritual, so at a time like this, we cannot create any more complications."

Gu Zhangsheng's expression froze, and he said unwillingly, "Then are we just going to let a wet-behind-the-ears kid shit on our heads?"

"If you do not endure small things, you will disrupt great plans."

Gu Zhengying's gaze revealed a look of longing.

"Once the Ritual is successfully completed, let alone Jinling, perhaps even Beijing will have to look at the Gu Family's face. It won't be too late to deal with that kid then."

Gu Zhangsheng regained his composure and thought it over carefully: "That makes sense. Then how should this matter be handled? Big Brother, you say it, I will listen to you."

"Just let A-Yao suffer a little grievance for now and satisfy that Chen Che's demands; don't make the matter any bigger and make Dad unhappy."

Gu Zhengying further instructed: "You must also remember, no matter what that Chen Che says, endure it for now. Otherwise, if you annoy Dad because of this small matter, it won't be good for you or A-Yao."

"Besides, a green kid is not worth our attention. Once the Ritual is complete, how we want to take revenge will be entirely up to A-Yao's wishes."

"Fine, I understand."

Gu Zhangsheng dismissed the people he had gathered and left, taking only one driver and one Bodyguard with him.

After Gu Zhangsheng left, a fashionably dressed young woman walked over and said, "Dad, why are you bothering with Second Uncle and the others? Let them go and make a scene. If Grandpa gets angry and punishes them, wouldn't that be good too?"

Gu Zhengying glanced at his precious daughter, Gu Yanran, and said with an indulgent smile, "This time is different. The Ritual is a major event for our family; only by preparing the Altar well can we make your grandfather happy."

Gu Yanran pouted and said with dissatisfaction, "It would be better to let them be sacrifices for Grandpa!"

Gu Zhengying smiled helplessly and did not say anything.
