Chapter 67: Grievances

~8 min read 1,530 words

At this moment, Chen Yu arrived. He ignored the people behind Chen Bo and turned to look at Lu Ruxue, saying, "You are Lu Ruxue."

"I am. Who are you?" Lu Ruxue was startled. Facing these thugs, it would be a lie to say she wasn't afraid; Chen Yu's sudden arrival left her shaken.

"I am Chen Yu, the Vice President of Tianyun Pharmaceutical. Let's go," Chen Yu said with a faint smile.

"Wait, who are you? You think you can just walk away?" Chen Bo was furious. "Do you even have me in your eyes?"

"Why should I have you in my eyes?" Chen Yu glanced at Chen Bo. "You should be glad I need to get to the venue quickly, otherwise you would definitely be missing a layer of skin today."

"Brother Bo, stop wasting time with him. Kill him." A lackey waved his hand, and five or six burly men grabbed their weapons and charged at Chen Yu.

With a flash of his figure, a heavy slap sent half of that lackey's teeth flying. Then, Chen Yu rewarded him with a punch. The lackey spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed on the ground, writhing; Chen Yu's punch had nearly displaced all his internal organs.

People who talk the toughest often receive the most vicious beatings; this saying was indeed correct. Chen Yu met these burly men, his figure moving rapidly through the scene. With several "Bang, bang, bang" sounds, accompanied by screams and wails, he knocked them all down in an instant.

Lu Ruxue was completely dumbfounded; in her eyes, Chen Yu had simply become a hero.

After knocking down the last lackey, Chen Yu waved his hand and said, "You go first. There is a car waiting downstairs. I will have a good chat with this guy."

"Okay, you... you take care of yourself." Lu Ruxue finally snapped out of her daze. She checked the time and saw the media conference was starting in ten minutes. She hurriedly grabbed her bag and left with Liu Xue in a rush.

After Lu Ruxue left, Chen Yu closed the door behind him and walked to Chen Bo's side.

"Who are you? You dare to meddle in my, Chen Bo's, affairs?" Chen Bo finally reacted, but among the people he brought, not one could fight besides himself.

"What a coincidence, I also have the surname Chen. My name is Chen Yu," Chen Yu said with a grin.

"You are Chen Yu? The new major shareholder of Tianyun Pharmaceutical?" Chen Bo looked at Chen Yu in surprise, then sneered, "Don't blame me for not warning you. If you go against President Xu of Three Emperors, you won't have a good end."

"Is that so?" Chen Yu gave a cold laugh. Suddenly, he slapped Chen Bo across the face.

*Pfft*, Chen Bo spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with teeth. His jaw was nearly dislocated by Chen Yu.

"You brat, you're courting death! I..." Chen Bo scrambled up, intending to risk his life against Chen Yu, but Chen Yu backhanded him with another slap.

With almost all the teeth in his mouth knocked out, Chen Bo finally quieted down.

"No matter who you are, go back and tell Xu Liangshan of Three Emperors Pharmaceutical that if he has any issues, he should come at me, Chen Yu. If he dares to do shady things behind my back, I will make him regret it," Chen Yu said calmly.

"You just wait, you won't have a good end," Chen Bo said through gritted teeth.

Chen Yu had already turned to leave, but this sentence from Chen Bo infuriated him. He turned back and kicked Chen Bo heavily in the chest.

*Thump*, Chen Bo was kicked flying. He didn't even have time to groan before he passed out.

Chen Yu glanced at him and turned to leave.

Just as he got downstairs, an old man suddenly appeared. Chen Yu frowned. The old man's eyes were like lightning, with a faint sense of wind and thunder; it was clear he had come for him.

Moreover, his Cultivation was definitely not low; it was at least at the Martial True Realm.

Chen Yu turned his head and met the old man's gaze. Sparks seemed to fly from both their eyes.

"The head of the Qinglong Society, Zhou Long?" Chen Yu asked.

"That is correct, it is this old man." Zhou Long nodded slightly. He took a step forward, his figure flashed, and when he landed, he had already glided over a zhang forward. After a few more steps, he had arrived at Chen Yu's side.

"Did you come here because of the four master and disciples of the Qinglong Martial Arts Hall who were injured?" Chen Yu stared at Zhou Long.

"That goes without saying. You kicked my Qinglong Martial Club and destroyed my plaque. If I don't settle this score, how will I, Zhou Long, have the face to walk the jianghu in the future?" Zhou Long said calmly.

"That is true." Chen Yu smiled. He nodded and said, "Then let's see, shall we settle this now, or find a place to settle it?"

"Brat, you have quite the attitude." Zhou Long was furious.

He was, after all, a master of the Martial True Realm with a respectable seniority in the jianghu. Yet, Chen Yu had kicked his Martial Club and injured his junior martial brother and disciples. Now, upon meeting him in person, not only did he show no remorse, but he didn't even have him in his eyes.

He tapped his right foot lightly on the ground. *Boom! * A surge of True Qi formed from his toe, cracking the floor tiles along its path as it struck toward Chen Yu.

A Martial True Realm master can project True Qi externally to condense it and harm others. The True Qi from Zhou Long's toe cracked the floor, and its power was extremely strong.

Chen Yu naturally would not show weakness. He also tapped his foot on the ground, and his True Qi countered the attack.

*Crack... * The floor between the two flew apart. The powerful True Qi forced both of them to involuntarily retreat several steps.

The expression on Zhou Long's face as he looked at Chen Yu had changed. He had cultivated for decades, relying on decent talent and hard work to barely break through to the Xuanwu True Realm. To advance further was already extremely difficult, yet Chen Yu, at less than thirty years of age, was actually also a master of the Martial True Realm.

What kind of heaven-defying talent and strength was this? Zhou Long suddenly felt that the Grievance Match he had set up at the Xuanwu Tea House seemed a bit rash.

"You are quite good, but the grudge of you insulting my club must be avenged. Chen Yu, tonight I will set up a Grievance Match at the Xuanwu Tea House. With the tea house owner Li Xuanling and three of the Thirteen Taibao as witnesses, our grudge will be settled once and for all," Zhou Long said in a deep voice.

"Rest assured, I will be there on time tonight," Chen Yu said, leaving behind a single sentence before turning to leave.

"Good, this old man will wait for you." Zhou Long nodded. He turned around, covering a zhang with each step, and vanished without a trace in a moment.

Watching Zhou Long disappear, Chen Yu's expression darkened slightly.

The Xuanwu Tea House was a highly prestigious jianghu force that existed specifically to resolve jianghu grievances. Once a Grievance Match was set, the grudge would be settled once and for all. Regardless of the outcome or life and death, their friends and family were strictly forbidden from bringing up the old matter again.

"Chen Yu, my grandfather wants you to come over," Lin Qingyue's call came through just as Chen Yu was deep in thought.

A detached villa at the nursing home.

Lin Lao was in good spirits. Every elderly person at the nursing home had a plot of land, and he was currently planting chili peppers in his.

Seeing Chen Yu arrive, Lin Lao put down his work and walked out, saying with a chuckle, "Little Chen, you're here."

"Lin Lao is in good spirits," Chen Yu said with a smile.

"It's all thanks to your needles and your medicine; otherwise, how could this old life of mine have lasted until now?" Lin Lao washed his hands and sat down. "Little Chen, I heard you have some friction with the Qinglong Society?"

"Lin Lao knows about it?" Chen Yu smiled faintly.

"I know a little. I also understand the Qinglong Society. It's a jianghu sect, and the head, Zhou Long, is already a Martial True Realm master. He is very formidable." Lin Lao nodded. "What is your take on the Qinglong Society?"

"Logically, the Qinglong Society shouldn't meddle in certain matters, but they intervened. Moreover, they injured people at will to prevent news from leaking. Additionally, they helped Du Feng's nephew abuse an innocent girl and threatened others. This is aiding and abetting evil; they deserve to be punished," Chen Yu said.
