Chapter 931: This Isn't Over

~8 min read 1,421 words

He was clear about the power the Zhou Family held in Xianyang; although he had an ancestral grandmother backing him, he would not go out of his way to look for trouble for no reason.

"Right, so let's think this over carefully," that subordinate said in a low voice.

"Heh, what can the Zhou Family even do?" Lu Jin sneered. "My Lu Family and their Zhou Family have always minded our own business; I don't believe the Zhou Family would turn against our Lu Family for the sake of these two women."

"Men, charge in and grab them! Whoever dares to stop you, beat them to death. I want to see who is tired of living," Lu Jin ordered in a deep voice.

His subordinates responded in unison and were about to charge in.

But just at this moment, a palm wind suddenly flew in from the side. With a *slap*, Lu Jin's face took the blow solidly; his body stiffened, and with a *thud*, he flew out.

Immediately after, the face of Chen Yu, which made him feel fear, appeared. Lu Jin screamed, "Someone come! Protect me!"

A group of people hurriedly shielded Lu Jin. After being helped up, he looked at Chen Yu with a grim expression.

"You surnamed Chen, you finally came. Heh, didn't expect me to find you so quickly, did you? Let me tell you, in Xianyang, our Lu Family is the sky."

"The injuries on your body healed quite fast," Chen Yu stared at Lu Jin for a moment.

Chen Yu had struck hard enough that morning; an ordinary person's bones would likely have been broken, and they wouldn't be able to get up for ten days or half a month. Yet, this kid had been half-dead at the time, but after just one afternoon, he was actually able to be full of vigor and seek revenge. It seemed the family really did have a foundation.

"My family has my ancestral grandmother protecting me; a pinch of incense ash sprinkled on my injuries and they are fine. Kid, do you know how many supernatural means my ancestral grandmother has?" Lu Jin clamored. "She is in Xianyang right now; if you dare to touch me, she will make you die very miserably."

"Is that so? Then before she comes to trouble me, I'll finish you off first," Chen Yu sneered. He grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen suddenly appeared.

As a strand of Sword Qi rose, the light on Lichen shone brilliantly. The Sword Light in Chen Yu's hand flashed; he could take his life immediately.

"Mr. Chen, please show mercy." Just at this moment, Zhou Anran over in a hurry.

"Mr. Chen, it is better to resolve grievances than to keep them. My old master has some friendship with the Lu Family, and he has already rushed to the Lu Family. Please, Mr. Chen, do not kill him," Zhou An said as he walked to Chen Yu's side.

"It's not that I don't give Senior Zhou face, but this kid is addicted to killing. If I let him go today, he definitely won't let this rest," Chen Yu said coldly.

"Mr. Chen, please rest assured. I will go and have a word with him. If he doesn't listen, it won't be too late for Mr. Chen to kill him then," Zhou An advised.

Chen Yu withdrew his hand, and Lichen vanished.

Not until the Sword Intent before his eyes disappeared did Lu Jin let out a sigh of relief. He felt his spirit relax, collapsed onto the ground, and panted heavily.

At the same time, his expression as he looked at Chen Yu was a bit different; after all, the killing intent Chen Yu had just displayed was definitely not something an ordinary person could emit.

Moreover, the fact that Chen Yu could make Zhou Zhangsheng come out personally to mediate meant Chen Yu was absolutely not an ordinary person.

"Lu Jin, do you know who Mr. Chen is?" Zhou An said sternly.

"It doesn't matter who he is; this is Xianyang." Lu Jin's tone was much more restrained, but he still had a very punchable look.

"Mr. Chen is the Alliance Leader of the Martial Alliance for the three provinces and six cities around Shengjing. Do you really think that just because the Zhou Family enshrines an ancestor, you can do whatever you want?" Zhou An shouted. "Leave here immediately, otherwise Mr. Chen will not show mercy."

"What if I don't leave?" Lu Jin was unconvinced.

In truth, he was already afraid, but he couldn't lose face; in the old saying, he was a dead duck with a stiff beak.

"Then you can try." Zhou An gave a deep shout and stepped forward; at the same time, dozens of Zhou Family disciples behind him stepped forward in unison.

Lu Jin fell into Silence. The group he brought were thugs; they were fine for brawling and fighting, but the Zhou Family was a Martial Arts Family, and their Netherworld Blade dominated Xianyang.

If they really started fighting now, his few men probably wouldn't be enough for Zhou An to cut down alone, not to mention there was still a Chen Yu whose strength he couldn't fathom.

His expression changed again and again, and he had to grit his teeth and say, "Fine, Zhou An, I've noted today's events. You remember this clearly: my ancestral grandmother is recuperating in Xianyang. I will settle this score sooner or later."

Lu Jin spouted some harsh words and left the place. Only then did Zhou An let out a sigh of relief. He cursed "idiot" under his breath; Lu Jin didn't know that he was actually saving him.

"Mr. Chen, he has left. Thank you, Mr. Chen, for giving my Zhou Family this face," Zhou An said.

"Fine, and sorry to trouble you for making the trip. It's best he doesn't provoke me, otherwise, I will make him die very miserably," Chen Yu said indifferently, then returned to the hotel.

"Chen Yu, is the matter resolved?" Lu Ruxue and Yu Sichen had been waiting for Chen Yu to return; only now did the two of them let out a sigh of relief.

"It's all resolved, but you still need to be a bit careful," Chen Yu said. "Lu Jin is a local tyrant. If it really doesn't work out, discuss it with the director and change the script or move to a different location."

"I have already contacted the director. The film crew is currently being threatened, and the company has sent people to mediate. If it really doesn't work out, we have no choice but to change locations," Lu Ruxue said.

"Alright, go get some rest. You've been running around all day and must be tired," Chen Yu smiled.

Lu Ruxue was currently staying in a suite; she and Yu Sichen hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally, they were staying together at night.

Although there were other rooms in the suite, it was ultimately staying with two girls, and Lu Ruxue was a public figure, so Chen Yu felt it wasn't very convenient, which is why he opened a room next door.

The night passed without incident. In the morning, a waiter came over to deliver a meal.

"Mr. Chen, this is the breakfast we prepared for you. The meal for the two ladies next door has already been delivered. Have a pleasant meal," the waiter smiled sweetly, placed the meal from the cart down, bowed slightly to Chen Yu, and retreated.

Chen Yu changed his clothes and opened the food tray, but the moment he opened it, his expression changed slightly.

This was a local specialty breakfast; it looked and smelled delicious, but Chen Yu clearly sensed a trace of black Qi within it.

This trace of black Qi was not ordinary poison, but something imbued with Magic; this place had been infiltrated.

Chen Yu was startled. Suddenly, he rushed out of the room and ran to the door of Yu Sichen's room: "Si Chen, don't eat anything."

His words had just fallen when he heard a cry of alarm from inside. Chen Yu couldn't care about anything else; he punched the lock to break it and rushed in.

In the suite, Lu Ruxue had already been hit, and Yu Sichen was at a loss, calling out to her from the side.

"Brother Chen, hurry, Xuexue has been poisoned." Seeing Chen Yu, Yu Sichen looked as if she had seen a savior.
