Chapter 10 Guests Fill the Seats
At the Chen family estate, a coffin stood in the main hall, with everyone kneeling on the ground in mourning attire.
"Master, it is already the seventh day since the young master passed; shall we not bury him yet?" asked the head steward of the Chen estate, his face full of trepidation. Ever since the master had returned from the Su estate, he had been silent, and even the steward, who had served for twenty years, had no opportunity to speak with him.
Chen Tai knelt on the ground like a lone wolf, his entire being exuding exhaustion. Yet, his gaze was incredibly sharp, deterring everyone from meeting his eyes.
"No, my son's enemies haven't been avenged. He will never be buried!" Chen Tai said coldly, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.
The atmosphere in the entire hall turned icy, and everyone trembled, looking toward the head steward as if seeking help.
The head steward sighed and said, bowing, "Master, this Ye Ling has a shocking background, with even the Six Doors organization being his people. Our Chen family is no match for him!"
"Hmph, a mighty dragon cannot crush a local snake. No matter how deep his connections are, can he really prevail over Long Tang?" Chen Tai said coldly, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"Long Tang!" Everyone's expression shifted to fear and unease, and even the head steward's voice trembled, "Master, are we truly to seek help from the ruthless individuals of Long Tang? They are people who kill without blinking and exterminate entire families!"
Long Tang referred to a martial artist faction in the southeast, who considered themselves above common folks and indifferent to human life, leaving behind rivers of blood and piles of bones at every turn. Even these prominent families would fall silent with trepidation, daring not to be associated with Long Tang in the slightest.
"Hmph, I can't worry about that now. As long as I can avenge my son, I will deal with the demons of hell if I must!" Chen Tai gritted his teeth, his voice cracking and eerie. Every member of the Chen family present cowered on the ground, overwhelmed with fear.
...
At the Su family estate, it was a hive of activity, bustling with incessant comings and goings.
Ever since the news of Chen Tai's defeat had spread, it had shocked those within the Su family's influence.
Major families came to visit the Su estate one after another, gathering together and presenting valuable gifts like ginseng and lingzhi, saying with utmost reverence, "Elder Patriarch, you really hold great sway. Even Mister He has come to support you. Chen Tai has been arrogant and overbearing for over a decade, but this time, he has indeed suffered a great loss!"
The cold voice was full of scornful tones, and the Su family members were immediately enraged.
"Who, which bastard dares to cause trouble in my Su family, drag them out and teach them a lesson!"
With the roar of the Su family, more than twenty security guards walked to the entrance, staring coldly at the two young men dressed in Tang suits.
"What's your status, showing up at the Su family without even a visiting card?"
"Heh, visiting card? Does a second-rate family like the Su's deserve a card from my Dragon Hall?" The two men sneered, looking over the crowd as if they were insignificant insects, then shook their heads and said, "Such trash, not even one good fighter among you."
"Presumptuous, my Su family is not to be looked down upon!" Su Jun's face darkened, and he gestured to his men, "Go, cripple them, and let them know the price of humiliating the Su family!"
"Yes, young master!" Two strapping men over one meter ninety stepped forward. Both of them were skilled in various combat techniques and were retired special forces soldiers, arguably the strongest in the entire Su family.
One on the left and one on the right, they swung their fists aiming for the young men's heads.
These two punches were both fast and fierce, and in the blink of an eye, they smashed toward their foreheads like cannonballs.
"Hmph, smash their skulls and see if they still dare to be arrogant!" Su Jun smirked with pride, ready to order his men to deal with the two, but then a thumping sound rang out, like a hammer strike, and the two security guards had their chests caved in and knelt to the ground.
Hisss!
Everyone couldn't help but gasp. The young man looked thin, but who could have expected him to be so strong, sending a hundred and eighty-pound hefty man flying with a punch, even piercing through his chest.
"What kind of person is this, and how can his skills be so terrifying?" The people present all showed looks of fear, and if they weren't blocked at the door by the two, they would have turned and run.
"Dragon Hall, could he be an emissary from Dragon Hall?" An elderly man exclaimed, trembling as he stepped forward, his eyes respectful as he looked at the young man.
