Chapter 336: A gentleman's word, once spoken, is like white‑dyed soap

~7 min read 1,335 words

The plum blossoms again!

Not long ago, Liu Dong was brutally kicked in the butt by Su Yang, and two teeth flew out.

Now he was slapped again, and the big tooth on his left cheek fell out completely.

The force of that slap was almost a half‑weight collision, and the brain fluid in his Brain seemed to be shaken.

Stars flashed in his eyes; he didn't know what night it was.

The Little Brother nearby, seeing the situation, hurriedly ran over to help him up.

"Dong Ge, wake up, Dong Ge!"

A fresh red slap imprint Seal Mark on his face; Liu Dong, dazed, woke up, his Mouth filled with blood saying, "Playing cards?"

"What cards are we playing? We're in 'Mo Jin'!" the Little Brother shouted, but was greatly surprised inside.

In terms of combat power, Liu Dong may not match Zhao Xian, but within the entire Weiwu Hall he is still considered a top player.

He once had a heroic record of taking on three opponents alone.

That is why he could take the position of the big brother.

To have his subordinates fully convinced, the foremost requirement is to be capable in battle.

Yet the Liu Dong, regarded by them as strong as a war god, was knocked to the ground by a single slap.

Simply terrifying!

"Not playing cards?" Liu Dong slowly woke, his blurred vision gradually clearing, a cold handsome face falling into his Pupil.

Hmm?!

Liu Dong suddenly recalled everything, and his body jolted sharply.

"Ninth... Young Master!?"

He hurriedly got up from the ground, just as he was about to bow, but suddenly recalled what had just happened.

His complexion instantly darkened, "This is a matter of our Weiwu Hall; the Ninth: Young Master intervenes without cause, that's against the rules, right?"

The implication was clear: this is a Six Harmonies Association matter, unrelated to you.

Calling you 'Ninth: Young Master' is a sign of respect to the gang leader.

Not from the heart.

"Rules?" Su Yang shook his head, laughing, his gaze gradually fixed, "Do you still have rules in your eyes?"

"In public, humiliating a woman—my impression is that the Six Harmonies Association strictly forbids this, right?"

"We had an early agreement with her father; where does the notion of humiliation come from?" Liu Dong said, hardening his resolve.

"Do you mean... that parents' command outweighs heaven?" Su Yang asked.

"The body, hair, and skin received from parents—this is how it should be."

"Is there such a thing?" Su Yang looked at Xiao Mo.

Facing the Ninth: Young Master spoken of by this gang member, Xiao Mo felt extremely nervous, her palms even sweated.

Lin Yang, seeing this, soothed, "Don't be afraid, he's a good person."

Good person...?

Whose family's good person would slap someone unconscious without a word...

Xiao Mo thought briefly, then denied outright, "That was just a drunken joke, it can't be taken seriously!"

"A gentleman's word, once spoken, is like white‑dyed soap; your esteemed father sees me as a fine talent and would betroth you to me—what's the problem?" Xu Liang shouted hoarsely.

"You're spouting nonsense; even if I were to die, I would never marry you!" Xiao Mo's face flushed with anger.

"You..." Xu Liang, having been embarrassed, couldn't keep his face, and reached out to swing at her pretty face.

Lin Yang, quick‑eyed and swift‑handed, grabbed him, a reverse takedown pinned him on the counter, coldly saying, "Watch your words and deeds; the Ninth: Young Master is here and you still dare..."

"Let go of me!" Xu Liang kept resisting, but Lin Yang's strength grew, nearly twisting his arm off.

Liu Dong, seeing Su Yang overstep, said coldly, "Xu Liang is one of my subordinates; it's not your place to..."

"I address you as Ninth: Young Master out of respect for the late gang leader; if you keep causing trouble, don't blame me for not being courteous."

"Moreover... if this is reported upward, do you think the Six Harmonies Association's Hall Master would side with you or with me?"

These words were logical and well‑grounded; although Liu Dong appeared bulky and rough, his mind was extremely subtle.

If Su Yang's actions were known to the various Hall Masters, the position of a gang leader would certainly have no hope.

The nation has its laws, the family its rules.

He is not yet considered a member of this family; even if Liu Dong's actions were wrong, he has no right to intervene.

Moreover...

Su Yang's doing this hits the mark perfectly.

The members of Weiwu Hall are eager for Su Yang to make a mistake, so that Hall Master Zhao Xian can ascend to the gang leader's seat.

Seizing this chance to clear obstacles is ideal.

Thinking this, Liu Dong couldn't help but feel smug inside.

"Did you see me intervene?" Su Yang retorted.

Liu Dong frowned, pointed his Finger at the bruised and swollen Xu Liang, saying, "You..."

"Dong Ge, this is a case of the esteemed forgetting things; clearly it was my brother Lin Yang who struck, what does it have to do with me?" Su Yang spread his hands.

Liu Dong frowned, opened his mouth and said, "Then how do you count my teeth?"

"You hit my brother; what's wrong with me retaliating?" Su Yang said with a smile.

"This is a private feud; do you still want to..."

Liu Dong's Pupil suddenly contracted, his mouth opened to speak, but he had nothing to say.

Indeed, Su Yang only acted after Lin Yang was hit, and his move directly targeted Liu Dong, involving no one else.

Strictly speaking, it doesn't count as meddling in "gold digging"…

Before he could react, Su Yang signaled, "Lin Yang!"

Lin Yang stepped forward, a hint of Smile at the corner of his Mouth.

"I'm here!"

"Do what you want to do; no need to worry."

"Alright!"

After speaking, Lin Yang with a Foot kicked Xu Liang out the door, then, like lifting a chick, tossed several Little Brothers out.

Liu Dong, seeing this, said in a deep voice, "Su Yang, I warn you not to go too far!"

"Calling the Ninth: Young Master's full name directly, this time you overstepped."

Su Yang's Mouth curled, and a fist smashed Liu Dong's face, instantly knocking him out.

The farce was declared over, members of the Six Harmony Association lay scattered on the street, drawing many sideways glances.

"Isn't that Liu Dong? How did he get beaten like that?"

"Who is so bold to cause trouble on the Six Harmony Association's turf?"

"Well hit, I've long found him unsightly!"

The crowd wanted to watch, but fearing resentment, they could only quietly psst two Mouths.

But it must be said, this act was greatly satisfying.

Liu Dong had long been infamous; merchants on this street outwardly showed respect, but inwardly cursed his eight generations of ancestors.

Now that someone stepped forward, it's naturally a great thing.

"Just need to set off firecrackers to celebrate."

Xiao Mo exhaled, but a worry surfaced in her heart, "Sorry, I involved you all."

"Huh, what you said, punishing evil and promoting good is what we should do, it's a trivial matter, not a link," Lin Yang shrugged his Shoulder nonchalantly.

"Thank you…" Xiao Mo whispered.

"What did you say? I didn't hear clearly," Lin Yang asked up close.

Xiao Mo felt his aura, her face slightly flushed, just about to speak, but seeing the wound on his neck, she exclaimed, "Ah! You're injured!"

Lin Yang instinctively touched it, looking at the blood in his palm, indifferent, "I'm not afraid of guns or Cannonball, this is nothing."

These words truly lacked bragging; Lin Yang indeed crossed Fire and retreated whole‑body unscathed.

His durability is maxed, the thickest‑skinned man Su Yang has ever seen.

No counterpart!

"How can this be, I… I'll handle it for you."

Saying that, Xiao Mo hurriedly ran to the back, feeling around for something.

"No need to be so polite, you…" Lin Yang said somewhat embarrassed.
