Chapter 552 - Who's Laughing at Whom
Chapter 552 of "The Strongest Dandy in the City" begins with suspense: A storm had come and gone quickly.The torrential rain gradually turned into a drizzle, and... Donât stop reading!
A storm had come and gone quickly.
The torrential rain gradually turned into a drizzle, and the drizzle slowly gave way to clear skies.
The large swathes of dark clouds that had obscured the sun in the sky also began to disperse after the torrential rain stopped, and the gentle sunlight once again fell to the ground, leaving the air filled with the scent of grass after the rain.
Ye Chenfeng lay on his back on the wild grass, his right hand clutching his aching chest, with the sun shining on his face, causing him to squint, and his breathing was still not steady.
If it hadnât been for Ye Chenfeng casually browsing the âTurtle Breathing Techniqueâ secret manual in his free time, he would have probably died at the hands of Shao Yangren and Zhong Ling today.
Even as he attempted to recite the Turtle Breathing Technique mantra earlier, it was like trying to cure a dead horse as though it were alive.
After all, executing the technique required the use of True Energy Force, but he only had Soul Force within him.
Furthermore, according to the last page of the manual, the Turtle Breathing Technique was an extremely difficult cultivation technique to master.
Who would have known that Ye Chenfeng could enter a state of suspended animation by reciting the mantra and channeling his Soul Force for the first time?
Most people in this world who accomplish great deeds not only possess strong abilities themselves but are also accompanied by great fate, a symbol of good luck.
Often, at many life-and-death moments, they manage to get through difficulties relatively smoothly.
As the Soul Force in his body recovered, the internal injuries Ye Chenfeng had sustained were also healing, albeit very slowly.
After adjusting his breath, he painstakingly got up from the ground and walked over to the breathless corpse of Shao Yangren, struggling to squat down.
After searching his body, Ye Chenfeng found a black USB flash drive and searched Zhong Lingâs body but did not find anything of use.
Ye Chenfeng held the black USB flash drive he had found on Shao Yangrenâs body.
Merely killing Shao Yangren and Zhong Ling was not enough to avenge his parents.
He had to make the Songs disappear from Huaxia Country and the Xuantian Sect disappear from the Ancient Martial World.
Just Shao Yangren alone was so powerful, there would surely be other experts of this caliber in the Xuantian Sect.
Thus, Ye Chenfeng was currently incapable of eradicating the Xuantian Sect and could only set his sights on the Songs for now.
What kind of useful information or evidence might this black USB flash drive contain?
In the car that Ye Chenfeng had driven here, there was conveniently a laptop computer.
Ye Chenfeng took laborious steps toward the direction of his car, opened the door, sat down in the car, and immediately turned on the laptopâit fortunately still had battery power left.
After inserting the USB flash drive into the laptop, Ye Chenfeng opened the files stored on it.
Inside was a detailed plan, a conspiracy from the Songs in collusion with the Xuantian Sect to gradually take control of all the major families in Capital City.
What surprised Ye Chenfeng even more was that, besides the plan, there was also a very clear video.
The video showed Family Head Song Yigang of the Songs in conversation with Shao Yangren.
Perhaps it was because the Xuantian Sect worried that the Songs would not willingly be their dogs in the future, so they had preserved these pieces of incriminating evidence to control the Songs.
With this evidence in hand, Ye Chenfeng could easily push the Songs into an abyss.
âHuff!
Huff!
Huff!â
After taking several deep breaths and slowly exhaling through his mouth, Ye Chenfeng found a pack of unopened Zhonghua cigarettes in the car, unwrapped the pack, took out a cigarette, lit it, and blew out rings of smoke while looking at the clear blue sky after the rain.
Ye Chenfeng could finally take the first step toward avenging his parents. The source of thÉŞs content is É´ová´l(ę°)ir(e).ná´t
Ye Chenfeng resolved to completely ruin the Songs within a single day.
Meanwhile.
In the meeting room, Ye Zhenhong, Wu Anguo, Song Yigang, Yu Fengnian, Yang Yuan, and a host of others were present.
The most hot-tempered Elder Wu Anguo said, âThe reason I and Zhenhong have called for an emergency meeting today is to expose the schemes of certain vile characters.
As we understand, Old Bai did not fall unconscious due to physical ailments; he was poisoned.
The Songs colluded with Old Baiâs two unfilial sons to poison him.
Afterward, with the Songsâ influence, they could easily take control of the Baisâ power.â
Master Wu paused before continuing, âOld Master Song, have I said anything wrong?â
âUtter nonsense, absolutely utter nonsense, Old Master Wu, do not slander me with your baseless accusations.
I havenât settled accounts with you, yet now you are trying to hold me accountable?
Today, Ye Chenfeng turned a distinguished guest of the Songs into a vegetable, how should we settle this matter?
Or is it because Old Master Wu and Old Master Ye are covering for him that Ye Chenfeng can do whatever he pleases in Capital City?â
Song Yigang said furiously, his aim was to buy time.
Once Shao Yangren killed Ye Chenfeng and sent the old man of the Yes to meet King Yama, probably by then, even with a hundred mouths, the Yes wouldnât be able to clear themselves.
Similarly, the Wus would certainly be implicated.
If the Yes and the Wus were diminished in Capital City, then it would be much simpler for the Songs to carry out their plan with Xuantian Sect.
âSong Yigang, who is the one spouting baseless accusations?
If you want to know whether the poisoning of Old Bai is related to the Songs or not, all we need to do is capture Old Baiâs two unfilial sons and interrogate them.
With our methods of questioning, getting the truth out of their mouths wonât be difficult,â Old Master Ye said, eyes piercing as he glared at Song Yigang.
âHa!â Song Yigang chuckled coldly, saying, âYe Zhenhong, are you saying that just because you want the Bais captured for interrogation, they must be captured?
Do you have any proof?
Moreover, Old Bai was being treated well in the hospital.
Why should Ye Chenfeng have the right to take Old Bai out of the hospital?
Even if Old Bai really was poisoned, your grandson Ye Chenfeng is the most suspicious.
The hospitalâs doctors didnât even detect the poison in Old Baiâs body, so how can you be so sure that Old Bai was poisoned?
And you still want to pin this on the Songsâ heads?â
âZhenhong, An Guo, I think Yigang is absolutely right.
Without evidence in your hands, how can you falsely accuse the Songs?
You have even less reason to capture the Bais for interrogation,â Yu Fengnian spoke up.
âI agree, the Yes and the Wus are simply creating chaos.
I support the Songsâ viewpoint,â Yang Yuan added immediately.
These two old men had been humiliated last time they were at the Yesâ.
They had long regarded the Yes and the Wus as adversaries, and at this moment, it was strange to think they would speak in favor of the Yes and the Wus!
âYe Zhenhong, Wu Anguo, now that you two have brought your accusations, isnât it my turn to demand an explanation from you?
Ye Chenfeng turned a distinguished guest of the Songs into a vegetable, how do you plan to handle this?â Song Yigang asked mockingly with a cold laugh.
âThat kid from the Ye family is like a ticking time bomb.
He must be punished this time, otherwise, heâll really be lawless in Capital City,â Yang Yuan declared angrily.
Yu Fengnian didnât rush to state his position, though he was inwardly eager to see Ye Chenfeng punished immediately.
But as the person with the most authority present, he had to maintain a certain dignity, speaking in a measured tone, âIs this what everyone thinks?â
âI agree with Old Yangâs view.â
âI also agree with Old Yangâs view.â
A few old men who were closer to the Songs expressed their support, one after another.
Meanwhile, several others who were closer to the Yes and the Wus saw that the situation was clearly unfavorable for the Yes and Wus, and they had no choice but to opt for neutrality.
In the end, Yu Fengnian made the final decision: âComrade Zhenhong, donât say I didnât give you face.
Given the way things have turned out, have your son turn himself in voluntarily tomorrow, that way everyone can save face.â
âHmph!â Old Master Ye snorted, saying, âSo youâve all decided to stand with the Songs?
The Songs harbor malicious intentions, and sooner or later youâll realize your own foolishness.â
âZhenhong, why waste words with these people?
Is there any point in us staying here now?â Old Master Wu stood up from his chair and left the conference room together with Old Master Ye.
In the conference room, Yu Fengnian, Yang Yuan, and Song Yigang among others, displayed faint smiles on their faces, already prepared to witness the Yesâ embarrassment.
But in the end, who will be laughing at whom?
