Chapter 385 - The Xus' Move
Chapter 385 of "The Strongest Dandy in the City" begins with suspenseful moments: The Ning family’s living room was shrouded in silence; even Ye Dongjian and the others... Don’t miss it!
The Ning family’s living room was shrouded in silence; even Ye Dongjian and the others held their breaths, many pairs of eyes staring blankly at Ye Chenfeng.Perhaps it was because Ye Chenfeng’s methods were too direct, violent, and bloody, everyone saw Xu Kai’s face covered in fresh blood, the skin on his cheeks violently split open with cracks, from which blood ceaselessly oozed out.
Even the bones in Xu Kai’s cheeks were deformed, giving his entire face a strange and distorted appearance.
Because the fresh blood covered Xu Kai’s face, the others could hardly discern his expression, but he did not faint; instead, he let out painful whimpers from his throat, his entire body trembling uncontrollably, utterly powerless to resist in Ye Chenfeng’s grasp.
Ye Chenfeng, holding Xu Kai’s hair, lightly flicked to the side, sending Xu Kai’s body flying like a sandbag, crashing to the ground like a dead pig.
Ye Chenfeng casually twisted his wrist and said, “Don’t think the Xus can do whatever they want in Wu State.
The Xus had better not provoke me, Ye Chenfeng, or I will make sure they are beyond redemption.”
Ye Chenfeng’s voice was icy cold, his overwhelming Eighth Level Soul Force radiating from his body, causing everyone present to feel a momentary chill in their spines as if they were frozen.
Xu Jian, who was kicked away by Ye Chenfeng, struggled to stand up after seeing his own son, Xu Kai, beaten into this state by Ye Chenfeng.
With a look of shock and uncertainty, he asked, “Are you Ye Chenfeng?
The grandson of Old Master Ye?
The one who killed Pengfei?”
After Ye Chenfeng revealed his identity, Xu Jian realized that the young man before him was not a bodyguard of the Yes but the grandson of Old Master Ye himself, which explained his fearless stance against them father and son.
Xu Jian’s stomach still ached faintly, his mouth twisting into a sinister smile.
Ye Chenfeng was the murderer of Xu Pengfei, who was the only male of the third generation in the Xu family’s direct lineages.
Xu Jian was not a fool; only now did he understand why Old Master Xu had sent people from their collateral branches to deal with the matters at the Nings’.
It was likely Old Master Xu intended them to be the vanguard.
Now that Ye Chenfeng had come to Wu State, Xu Jian knew that Old Master Xu would never let Ye Chenfeng off.
Even if Ye Chenfeng was from the Yes’ direct lineage, he had, after all, extinguished the Xu direct lineage’s third generation.
Perhaps Old Master Xu had anticipated that their collateral branch would be at a disadvantage against Ye Chenfeng.
What was Old Master Xu’s true intention?
Perhaps he wanted the collateral branch to clash with Ye Chenfeng first?
Ideally, a few of the third generation men from the collateral line would fall by Ye Chenfeng’s hand, and with Xu Kai being the pride of the collateral branch, and now that there were no more males in the third generation of the direct lineage, Xu Kai had a high chance of becoming the Family Head of the third Xu generation.
It wasn’t hard to see how cunning Old Master Xu’s strategy of using others as his weapon was.
Having thought through the entire situation and guessed Old Master Xu’s thoughts, Xu Jian no longer had the heart to fight with Ye Chenfeng.
Although he loathed Ye Chenfeng, their collateral branch would definitely not serve as a mere tool for the direct lineage; Old Master Xu would most certainly deal with Ye Chenfeng.
Xu Jian simply needed to watch from the sidelines and wait for the right moment to take his revenge against Ye Chenfeng.
Without a word, Xu Jian helped his son, Xu Kai, up from the ground and turned to Ning Rongxuan, saying, “Old Master Ning, I’ll leave the matters here to you Nings to handle.
We, the Xus, don’t need the process; we just want the results, just like when Ning Yuting married Zhan Chi.
I hope you can handle this properly this time too.”
After saying this, Xu Jian helped the bloodied Xu Kai out of the Ning family living room.
Ye Chenfeng walked over to Ye Dongjian and patted his shoulder, saying, “Uncle, what are you still standing there for?
Do you really want to stay at the Nings’?”
Only then did Ye Dongjian slowly come back to his senses, casting a hostile gaze at Ning Rongxuan and others, he said, “Minyan is my woman, Ye Dongjian’s woman.
Even if the entire Ning family opposes, it’s utterly useless to me.
Today, I’ve finally seen the Ning family’s true colors.
Indeed, utterly shameless.”
“Sister, let’s go!
From this moment on, we are no longer part of the Ning family.
Whatever happens to the Nings from now on has nothing to do with us.” Originally, someone like Ning Minyan would never say such heartless words, but the Nings had hurt her time and again.
Years ago, they forced her sister, Ning Yuting, to marry the corpse of Xu Zhanchi and now today, they had once again shown their true nature.
“Bad people, you’re all bad people.
Qianqian really doesn’t like you,” said Qianqian, holding Ning Yuting’s hand, pouting innocently.
The expressions on the faces of the Nings changed unpredictably.
Ning Rongxuan spoke up, “Yu Ting, you must attend Xu Pengfei’s funeral tomorrow, and as for Min Yan, your marriage to Xu Kai can be pushed back for now.
Don’t try to confront the Xus in Wu State, as they are the supreme power here; if you do, the consequences will be dire.”
Ning Yuting’s face regained the icy demeanor of a military goddess as she said mockingly, “Are you showing concern for Min Yan and me?
Or are you worried about the Ning family?
Worried that the two of us sisters will bring trouble upon the Ning family?
Min Yan made it very clear just now, from today onwards, we sisters have nothing to do with the Ning family.”
The Nings watched the retreating figures of Ye Chenfeng and his group, not daring to obstruct them in the slightest. Thɪs chapter is updated by NovᴇlFir(e).nᴇt
They already knew that Ye Chenfeng was not merely a bodyguard for the Yes, and his method of handling Xu Kai had indeed intimidated them.
They certainly did not wish to follow in Xu Kai’s footsteps.
Once Ye Chenfeng and the others had disappeared from the Xu family’s living room, Ning Yuting’s uncle, Ning Guangzhi, was the first to speak, “Hmph, Yu Ting and Min Yan have gone too far.
Unless they leave Wu State immediately and return to Capital City, the Xus will certainly not let this go.”
“Ning Yuting and Ning Min Yan are no longer members of our family, that was their choice.
One day, they will regret it,” said Ning Guangbo, Yuting’s younger uncle, indignantly.
“I’ve always said, they’re not fit to be my sisters, nor are they fit to be part of the Ning family.
Think they’re so great just because they’re clinging onto the Yes?” Ning Yuanhang said contemptuously.
“Exactly!
One day, they’ll kneel in front of our Ning family, begging to be let back in,” Ning Hongwen said arrogantly.
Ning Guangfeng and Lin Meiqin, as Ning Yuting and Ning Min Yan’s parents, remained silent, just as they had years before, silently watching the Ning family force the two sisters into a corner.
In a great family, considerations were always for the benefit of the family, so Ning Guangfeng and Lin Meiqin did not feel much guilt towards Ning Yuting and Ning Min Yan.
“Let’s hope so!
But what I’m most worried about now is whether the Xus will retaliate against our Ning family,” Ning Rongxuan sighed, completely indifferent to the lives or deaths of Ning Yu Ting and Ning Min Yan, but the survival of the Ning family was his greatest concern.
Meanwhile, at the same time Ye Chenfeng and his group had left the Ning residence, in the Xu family villa, the Xu family patriarch, Xu Guodong, was immediately informed.
Looking at his son, Xu Huanan, he said, “It seems that Xu Jian is not so foolish after all, he must have guessed my intentions.
Huanan, after Ye Chenfeng and his group left the Ning residence, are they preparing to leave Wu State?”
“Dad, according to the information I’ve received, it doesn’t seem like Ye Chenfeng and his group intend to leave Wu State.
What should we do next?” Xu Huanan asked, puzzled.
“Since Ye Chenfeng truly intends to leave his life in Wu State, how can we not fulfill their wish?
Listen to me…” Xu Guodong spoke a string of words, and then added at the end, “Huanan, you command the Honghai Association to handle this matter.”
“Dad, aren’t we being too blatant in doing this?” Xu Huanan couldn’t help asking after hearing a series of remarks from his father.
“Don’t you want to avenge Pengfei?
Although many people know that Honghai Association is under our Xu family’s control, who has evidence to prove that Honghai Association is indeed our family’s power?
In the end, if the Yes direct their anger towards Honghai Association, sacrificing it for Pengfei’s revenge would be worth it,” Xu Guodong heaved a deep sigh.(To be continued.
