The sudden voice startled everyone.
Who was so bold as to speak to the Qi Family in such a manner? To say he was courting death was an understatement; wasn’t this just asking to have his entire family annihilated?
Given the Qi Family’s dominance in the Southern Six Provinces, no one had ever dared to confront them head-on, let alone insult them .
What was crucial was that the insult wasn’t directed at just any member of the Qi Family, but at one of the Qi Family’s Five Heroes, Qi Wu’an, known for having the worst temper among them!
Everyone turned their heads to see who this death-seeking individual was and what he looked like.
Only one person was standing behind them, none other than Su Yang. His face was calm, as if oblivious to the stares from everyone around him.
Director Lin was the first to react, pointing at Su Yang and cursing, "You son of a bitch, were those words just now spoken by you?"
"You dare to speak to the Qi Family’s Five Heroes like that, seeking death?"
"Kill him, kill him, the Qi Family of Wanhu cannot be humiliated!"
"You son of a bitch, kneel down and apologize immediately, or else, I’ll kill you first!"
"Why waste words on him, just kill him!" New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel·fire·net
The crowd was shouting angrily, some even moving towards Su Yang, ready to teach him a lesson on behalf of the Qi Family. This way, they could show their face in front of the Qi Family and might even receive preferential treatment from them in the future!
Zhang Aiqin was the most excited, eagerly stirring up trouble, "Third brother, you see that? That’s Hu Yong’s so-called comrade. Tsk tsk, is this what a veteran from the army looks like? This is just a moron. What kind of army is this, one that trains morons?"
Zhang Aiyun’s face was extremely embarrassed. She didn’t know what exactly was going on, but she was very clear that this incident was really troublesome.
However, she no longer sought help from Zhang Aiqin. With things having come to this point, she had to stand behind Hu Yong no matter what. Even if it meant facing certain doom, she would support her husband!
Zhang Aiyun did not understand how dangerous society could be. In her view, at worst, she would get beaten up and then have to pay some money. As the saying goes, the poorest beg and the lucky prevail; even if she had to beg, she would support her husband!
Just as the crowd was clamoring about to lay hands on Su Yang, suddenly, Qi Wu’an from behind roared, "Everybody fucking stop!"
All were stunned on the spot, especially those who had surrounded Su Yang.
Since Su Yang hadn’t made a move, those words from Qi Wu’an were clearly directed at them.
The crowd was confused, not understanding why Qi Wu’an wanted them to stop. Weren’t they helping Qi Wu’an? Why would he want them to cease their actions?
Director Lin was also taken aback but quickly laughed, "Third cousin, do you want to take care of him yourself? That’s right, for someone like him, you definitely need to handle it personally to be satisfied."
The crowd had an epiphany, stepped aside, and laughed, "Mr. Qi, we were overstepping our bounds. Indeed, you should be the one to take action!"
"Yes, he dared to insult Mr. Qi; of course, it should be Mr. Qi who deals with him!"
"Everybody, make way for Mr. Qi!"
Shen Jing’an’s complexion changed dramatically. Wasn’t Su Yang courting death?
He hurriedly waved his hand towards the people of the Shen Family, signaling them to come protect Su Yang. But at this moment, could the people of the Shen Family stop the Qi Family?
Qi Wu’an ignored everyone else. He walked up to Su Yang, his expression turning extremely ugly. With everyone watching, Qi Wu’an bowed his head and said in a low voice, "Master Su, you...you are here too?"
Everyone at the scene was taken aback. What was this? Qi Wu’an was calling Su Yang "Master Su"? And looking at Qi Wu’an’s demeanor, he was clearly bowing his head. What did this mean? When had the Qi Family ever bowed to anyone?
Shen Jing’an, who had been prepared to come protect Su Yang, also froze. What was going on? Qi Wu’an, with the worst temper among the Qi Family’s Five Heroes, was showing such an attitude towards Su Yang? This was completely beyond his expectations!
Amidst the surprised stares from the crowd, Su Yang retorted, "Can’t I be here?"
"No...not at all..." Qi Wu’an’s face turned awkward as he hurriedly said, "I just didn’t know you were here, that’s all..."
"Hmph, I thought your Qi Family of Wanhu was so domineering. Just because you’re in Wanhu, I can’t dine at Wanhu Manor?" Su Yang said coldly.
A flicker of anger passed through Qi Wu’an’s eyes, but he eventually lowered his voice and said, "That’s not what I meant. I...I just didn’t know Master Su was here..."
"Well, now you know, right?" Su Yang said.
"Know...I know..." Qi Wu’an’s face was flushed to the extreme. When had he ever been treated in his life?
"So, what do you think should be done about this?" Su Yang asked back.
"This matter..." Qi Wu’an said in a low voice, "Master Su, this matter has nothing to do with you. We were just looking for the Shen..."
"Shen Jing’an’s Shen Wang Order has been given to me..." Su Yang said calmly. "You don’t think that me holding the Shen Wang Order is an insult to the Qi Family, do you?"
"Ah?" Qi Wu’an was stunned. The Shen Wang Order was actually with Su Yang?
Honestly, comparing Su Yang with Lord Qi Ba and Ye Jiansheng, of course there was no competition. But the problem was, he couldn’t give a direct answer to that question. Su Yang might be no match for Lord Qi Ba and Sword Saint, but still, he could stir up trouble for the Qi Family to no end!
Everyone at the scene watched Qi Wu’an’s expression, and although they did not know the exact situation, they vaguely saw that Qi Wu’an was quite apprehensive of Su Yang.
Everyone was very puzzled in their hearts, unable to understand the situation. It was known that the Qi Family from Wanhu, in Jiangnan Province, even in the Southern Six Provinces, acted with impunity. They had never seen the Qi Family bow to anyone before, nor had they seen anyone dare to speak to the Qi Family !
Who exactly was this Master Su?
Shen Jing’an was especially dumbfounded. Although he was the Family Head of Jiangnan Province’s second-largest family, in reality, he was very wary of the Qi Family. The Qi Family of Wanhu had never taken the heads of these families seriously. A single Qi Wu’an was far above him in status!
And now, Qi Wu’an was acting so compliant and panicked in front of Su Yang that Shen Jing’an was truly baffled. Did the Qi Family of Wanhu have people they feared? And the one they feared was Su Yang?
"Hey, I’m talking to you!" Su Yang said coldly. "Qi Wu’an, do you think it’s fitting for me to hold the Shen Wang Order?"
Qi Wu’an’s face turned beet red and, despite being extremely angry inside, he ultimately had to honestly reply, "Fitting...it’s fitting..."
Director Lin couldn’t help but be startled and said in astonishment, "Third cousin, this...how can this be okay? What’s so special about this guy, how can he compare to Lord Qi Ba?"
