Chapter 989: Are You Worthy of Playing With Us?
"Thanks, Young Master Zou." Chen Yu nodded. One does not strike a person who is smiling; although Zou Ziang had sought out experts to hunt him down on the road west, meeting in this setting meant both sides naturally had to set aside their prejudices.
"Greetings, Young Master Hu." Chen Yu extended his hand, a smile on his face.
Coming to this kind of setting for the first time, one's posture indeed needed to be lowered a bit. Even though he knew this grandson intended to embarrass him, "courtesy first, force later" was Chen Yu's way of conducting himself.
Sure enough, Hu Jin directly ignored Chen Yu's hand. He sneered, "Chen Yu, I heard you grew up among the common folk? Your foster father picked you up off the ground?"
"That's right. If not for my foster father, there would be no Chen Yu today. Is there a problem with that?" Chen Yu's hand remained suspended in mid-air as he said this calmly.
"Haha, no wonder people in the circle all say your background is lowly; so it's true. Someone who grew up among the common folk, to be honest, is no different from a bastard. If you were to mingle in the same circle as us, it would truly lower our status," Hu Jin laughed loudly.
"Hu Jin, what are you saying?" Ye Qinglong was furious.
"Ye Qinglong, this has nothing to do with you, right?" Hu Jin sneered, then as if remembering something, he slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I remember now. Your Ye Family is going to marry into the Chen Family, right?"
"Haha, it's hilarious. Your sister, such a flower-like woman, as cold and aloof as a goddess, but I never expected her taste to be so poor. Passing up a marriage to the distinguished Young Master Zou, she insists on marrying a bastard who grew up among the common folk. You really are killing me with laughter."
Hu Jin's words caused the group of Prince Party members surrounding him to burst into laughter with a boom.
"Young Master Hu is right, Ye Qingning's taste is truly poor."
"Haha, what goddess? Just a blind woman."
"What right does this guy surnamed Chen have to be with us? Grew up among the common folk, no experience, a country bumpkin."
"Chen Yu, are you not convinced?" Hu Jin chuckled, "I'm telling you, even if you aren't convinced, you have to endure it. The He Family New Energy Project was just submitted. Do you believe that my Hu Family can stall your mother's new energy project for several years?"
"Doesn't your He Clan also want to lay out an energy plan? If you dare to let out a single fart, the He Clan will inevitably suffer heavy losses."
"Is that so?" Chen Yu smiled, but the smile on his face gradually turned cold. "Do you think I dare not do anything to you?"
"What can you do to me? Are you going to bite me?" Hu Jin laughed loudly.
"Hu Jin, do you know what you're lacking?" Chen Yu sneered. "What you lack is a beating from society. Since your mother can't teach you well and the Hu Family can't control you, then I will discipline you on behalf of your Hu Family, so you know what it means to have trouble come from the mouth."
As Chen Yu spoke, he suddenly raised his right hand and whipped a slap through the air. The triumphant Hu Jin's body swayed violently to one side, and with a *pfft*, he spat out a mouthful of blood. His body spun a few times in mid-air before falling heavily to the ground.
Chen Yu grabbed a wine bottle and smashed it down onto his forehead. With a *crash*, the wine flowed down his head.
In truth, Chen Yu was holding back. If it weren't for the fact that this guy's body was too weak to withstand one of Chen Yu's mental attacks, Chen Yu could have taken his life with just a single glance.
But fighting and killing were ultimately not good. What Chen Yu wanted to do today was not to kill, but to make this guy fear him and to make everyone present remember what kind of person he was.
"Chen Yu, do you want the He Clan's project to be shelved forever? You dare to hit me, are you crazy?" Hu Jin screamed, his face covered in blood.
"I'm not crazy. If I were truly crazy, no one here would survive tonight." Chen Yu's cold tone made everyone's heart sink slightly. He said coldly, "Disciplining you shows that I haven't wanted to kill yet, but you must remember: trouble comes from the mouth."
Chen Yu took the wine bottle, now shattered with half the glass missing, and stabbed it into the guy's thigh.
"Ah..." A spray of blood erupted from Hu Jin's thigh. He screamed hysterically, his vision darkening.
What was even more terrifying was that Chen Yu expressionlessly pulled out the broken bottle and stabbed it fiercely into another part of him.
*Thump*, Hu Jin collapsed to the ground, shivering. He truly had no strength left to scream.
"Still not apologizing?" Chen Yu leaned down, his sinister words ringing in his ear.
"I'm sorry, I apologize. Chen Yu, I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that about you." Hu Jin trembled violently; he really wished he could just faint right now.
"Get lost." Chen Yu stood up, straightened his collar, and spat out a single word.
Hu Jin struggled to get up, but his efforts were in vain; he had no way to stand.
"Someone help me up, save me." Hu Jin wailed in despair.
There were those who wanted to help him, but Chen Yu swept a sharp glance over, and those who wanted to help were so frightened their hands shook, and they hurriedly backed away.
"I said, get lost. Today, you either crawl out or die here," Chen Yu said nonchalantly.
Everyone's heart was shaken. Had Chen Yu gone mad? Did he not know Hu Jin's status? Moreover, his mother's He Group needed special approval from the Hu Family for their new project. Did Chen Yu want his family's project to be permanently shelved?
But seeing the icy look in Chen Yu's eyes, no one dared to say another word of nonsense. Hu Jin had no choice but to grit his teeth and struggle to crawl outward.
"Chen Yu, is it appropriate to take action here?" The expression on Zou Ziang's face remained unchanged, as if he had long expected Chen Yu to act this way.
"What is inappropriate about it?" Chen Yu sneered. "Was it appropriate when he called me a bastard? If anyone is not convinced, feel free to bring it on now. I guarantee your end will be as miserable as Hu Jin's, regardless of status or identity. If I, Chen Yu, frown even once, count it as my loss."
Chen Yu was currently a Dharma Cultivator at the Entering the Dao Realm. Truth be told, wanting to kill this group of Prince Party members was as simple as pinching a group of ants to death.
And he didn't even need to target anyone specifically; as the aura on his body radiated outward, these so-called young masters turned pale with fright one by one.
"Chen Yu, you are too arrogant." A follower beside Zou Ziang said hatefully, "We are all people of the same circle, representing the top tier of Shengjing. What right do you have to be so arrogant?"
"Top tier? Circle?" Chen Yu sneered, his voice cold. "Pardon my bluntness, but in my eyes, everyone here is trash."
Chen Yu's words caused the expressions of everyone present to change drastically. They were all gnashing their teeth in hatred, but no one dared to step forward.
"Chen Yu." Just then, a soft, delicate voice came over. Everyone turned to look and couldn't help but be slightly stunned; the person who had arrived was none other than Ye Qingning.
"Sister, why are you here?" Ye Qinglong was stunned.
