Chapter 422: Li Family Turmoil (Part 7)
Han Bailing is dead.
For a moment, the entire Li Family fell into silence once again.
"Ah!!!"
After a long while, Han Chengfang was the first to react; she let out a hysterical scream and lunged at Chen Che like a madwoman: "I'll kill you! You bastard, I'm going to kill you! Kill you!"
Chen Che sneered, his figure stiffened, and Han Chengfang instantly froze in place, still maintaining her running posture, but she could no longer move.
"You... what did you do?!" Han Chengfang looked at Chen Che with a face full of terror.
Chen Che slowly raised his gun and said, "A family should be neat and tidy; that's how it should be."
"No! No! Don't kill me! I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
At this moment, Han Chengfang finally regained her senses, and the instinct for survival filled her with fear as she begged for mercy over and over: "Chen Che, don't kill me! It was my fault before, I shouldn't have treated you like that, and I won't seek revenge for my sister Han Qingfang anymore, I won't care about my grandfather's death either. Let me go, as long as you spare me, I'm willing to do anything for you!
My chest is large, my legs are long, and I often work out and practice yoga, and I'm very good at twisting my waist... The Han Family... the Han Family is currently leaderless, I can even help you annex the Han Family and help you rebuild the Chen Family! I really can do many things, I really can..."
"Bang!"
The gunshot rang out, and Han Chengfang fell to the ground in astonishment.
"Too much nonsense."
Chen Che turned to look at Zhou Xiangyun.
Zhou Xiangyun gave a start and fell to his knees on the ground with a thud. Seeing this, Zhou Xinda did not dare to delay and followed Zhou Xiangyun to his knees on the ground.
"Chen Che... nephew... you... you are a magnanimous person... we... our Zhou Family was deceived by the Li Family and the Han Family. It was Li Shizheng and Han Bailing who tricked me, that's why I made a mistake and followed them to deal with you... Believe me, this really wasn't my intention... You are a magnanimous person... don't hold it against me..."
Zhou Xiangyun trembled all over and stammered: "As long as you spare me... from now on... from now on the Zhou Family will be yours. I am willing to help you rebuild the Chen Family, and I am also willing for the Zhou Family to be merged into the Chen Family. In short, I will unconditionally accept any of your demands... Please forgive my stupidity today and spare me."
Chen Che said with a mocking smile, "Patriarch Zhou, I still prefer your original unyielding appearance."
"That was just me being ignorant... It was my fault. Chen Che, you are a young talent, you are... no, you are the only one of your kind in the entire world. Don't lower yourself to my level, spare my life, and I will definitely lead the entire Zhou Family to repay your kindness with all our might!"
Zhou Xiangyun kowtowed heavily to the ground and promised solemnly.
Li Shizheng could not listen any longer and cursed angrily: "Zhou Xiangyun, you old scoundrel, you actually knelt to a mere brat, you've thrown away all the dignity of the Zhou Family!"
"Li Shizheng, shut up!" Zhou Xiangyun said aggressively: "If it weren't for your incitement, how could I have followed you to rebel?! Now Han Bailing is dead, and the Han Family is finished! I don't want to follow in the footsteps of the Han Family, so what if I kneel and beg for mercy?!"
"You're noble, you're amazing! Then you can just go die with everyone in your Li Family!"
Zhou Xiangyun looked back at Chen Che and said respectfully and submissively: "Chen Che, please spare my life for the sake of my sincerity. Please."
Zhou Xinda echoed in terror: "Please!"
Chen Che suddenly smiled and said, "Alright, I agree."
Zhou Xiangyun and Zhou Xinda were instantly overjoyed, as if they had been granted amnesty: "Thank you, thank you so much! From now on, the Zhou Family will definitely..."
"Bang—bang——"
Two abrupt gunshots.
Zhou Xiangyun and Zhou Xinda both wore expressions of disbelief; streams of warm blood flowed down from the tops of their heads, their vision grew darker and darker, and in the end, both of them collapsed headfirst, dying with their eyes wide open.
Gao He's heart trembled, and he suddenly felt a sense of sorrow for the death of his peers, unable to help but ask: "Didn't you already agree to spare them?!"
Chen Che's expression was calm: "I changed my mind."
"........."
For a time, the members of the Li Family were shocked once again.
Chen Che's ruthlessness and decisiveness were fully revealed; facing such a vengeful person, no one in the Li Family felt confident they could survive in his hands.
Gradually, all the Li Family members were drenched in cold sweat; some could not withstand the psychological pressure and fainted directly, while others fell to the ground and wet their pants...
"Mommy, I don't want to die!"
"God, if I had known, I wouldn't have joined in the fun! I haven't lived enough yet!"
"Now the Inspection Department is on Chen Che's side, the Patriarchs of the Han Family and the Zhou Family are both dead, and only our Li Family is left. There is no chance of winning, we've lost, we're all going to die! Boohoo..."
"............"
In the courtyard, the Li Family members surrounded by the soldiers of the Inspection Department had their psychological defenses collapse one after another, weeping bitterly.
Seeing this scene, Li Shizheng frowned tightly and glared at Chen Che with monstrous hatred.
Li Ziming leaned into Li Shizheng's ear and whispered: "Dad, we've lost. Why don't we kneel and beg for mercy too? We are different from the Zhou Family and the Han Family; because of Aunt, Chen Che won't kill us easily..."
"Slap!"
Li Shizheng turned and slapped Li Ziming across the face, raging: "Shut your mouth! You unfilial son! You still want me to kneel and beg for mercy?! What is his status, and what is mine?! You want to throw the Li Family's face on the ground and trample on it too?!"
Li Ziming clutched his face and said aggrievedly: "You've lost your life, what are you still caring about dignity for?! I don't want to die, I want to live! If you won't kneel, I will!"
Saying this, Li Ziming knelt on both knees before Chen Che and begged humbly: "Chen Che, I didn't know anything, it was all my dad's idea, I couldn't disobey him."
After finishing with Chen Che, Li Ziming looked at Wu Qingkui: "Aunt, save me! For the sake of me being someone you watched grow up, please let Chen Che spare me. From now on, I will stay by your side and serve you, I'll do whatever you tell me to do, I won't go against you ever again! Aunt, save me, save me!"
Chen Che snorted coldly: "What a pity, you didn't even manage to keep your last bit of backbone."
Ignoring the father and son of the Li Family who had turned against each other, Chen Che walked to Wu Qingkui's side and tapped lightly on the Jade Bracelet on her wrist; the Limiter disguised as a Jade Bracelet shattered instantly.
Wu Qingkui rubbed her wrist, looking at Chen Che with laughter in her phoenix eyes, and chided: "Alright, you brat, you even tricked me. I knew you wouldn't be taken down so easily."
Chen Che raised his eyebrows smugly: "Just kidding! A bunch of rabble, how could they possibly do anything to me!?"
Wu Qingkui's smile did not fade as she asked: "What about the others?"
"They went to the hospital, but they are all safe," Chen Che replied.
"That's good." Wu Qingkui nodded, then looked at Gao He and asked: "How did you do it?"
Chen Che smiled mysteriously: "I have my own clever methods."
"Tch, look at you!" Wu Qingkui rolled her eyes at him, "How do you plan to deal with the Li Family members?"
Chen Che pondered for a moment, walked to the entrance, faced the Li Family Fourth Elder and the other Li Family members, and said: "I don't want to kill the innocent... I will count to three. Those who kneel and submit will live, those who stand and resist... will die!"
After speaking, Chen Che scanned the circle and said: "One."
Thud, thud, thud...
A group of people knelt on both knees without hesitation: "We are willing to submit!"
"Two."
"We are also willing to submit!"
"Willing to submit!"
Half of the Li Family knelt on the ground, leaving only a group led by the Li Family Fourth Elder still holding out.
Chen Che continued, "Three..."
Thump, thump, thump...
Except for the Li Family Fourth Elder, all the Li Family members knelt on the ground.
Chen Che looked at the Li Family Fourth Elder with interest and smiled, "It seems the Fourth Elder is a tough man."
The Fourth Elder frowned and stared at Chen Che. After a while, he let out a long sigh and said sincerely, "Truly, heroes are born from the youth; the waves of the Yangtze River push those ahead... Chen Che, I submit. The Chen Family having you... Xia having you... is truly a stroke of luck that hasn't been seen in hundreds of years."
"I have heard of your deeds, but I have always been arrogant and did not think you could stir up any waves. Today, however, I have truly witnessed it with my own eyes, and this old face of mine stings quite a bit."
"Patriarch... Shizheng, give up. We have lost. Facing such an enemy, it is not shameful even if we lose; at least we can preserve the Li Family."
The Fourth Elder looked at Chen Che again, knelt on both knees, and said respectfully and devoutly, "Li Family Fourth Elder Li Shining is willing to submit."
