Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Young Master Su!

Ling Zi just happened to be hosting a banquet at a hotel not far from the night feast this evening, and the guest was none other than Hou Shilin, who had just taken over all the businesses of the Hou Family.

Ling Zi’s backer was Hou Xiaozhi, but now Hou Xiaozhi had fallen from power, and everything of Hou Xiaozhi had been handed over to Hou Shilin. Being a clever man, Ling Zi immediately reached out through his connections to Hou Shilin, hoping to switch allegiance to his side.

However, Hou Shilin didn’t give Ling Zi much face. Ling Zi had arranged to meet at seven-thirty, but it was already past nine, and Hou Shilin still hadn’t arrived. Ling Zi waited with a look of dejection, only to be told by his subordinates that Hou Shilin had gone to the city hospital to visit Su Yang’s father, and it seemed he would not be coming tonight.

Ling Zi was extremely annoyed in his heart, but he dared not vent his frustration. He knew that it was Su Yang who had brought down Hou Xiaozhi, and he was not someone Ling Zi could afford to provoke. If he couldn’t latch on to Hou Shilin, he guessed he wouldn’t be able to hold onto his position as the boss for much longer.

And just then, he received a call from Scarface, informing him that someone was causing trouble at the night feast.

”I’ll fuck their ancestors!” Ling Zi was full of anger with nowhere to vent, and upon hearing this, he flipped the table and cursed, ”I’m not dead yet, and here these cats and dogs dare step on my head. Damn it, get your weapons, and follow me to the night feast!”

Within less than ten minutes, Ling Zi arrived at the night feast’s private room with his men, their presence formidable.

Hu Jun and the others were still mocking Su Yang and Zhao Qiu Peng when Ling Zi suddenly kicked in the door. Hu Jun and his company jumped in fright, but their eyes quickly lit up.

”Lord Ling, Lord Ling is here!” Hu Jun said excitedly, ”Su, you’re dead meat, you’re so dead!”

”Zhao Qiu Peng, are you regretting it now?” Jiann Yunyun looked at Zhao Qiu Peng with a ferocious expression.

”Lord Ling has arrived, let’s see how this Mr. Su dies!”

”Do we even need to say it? Causing trouble in Lord Ling’s presence, how many can leave intact?”

”No one else can be blamed, it’s just that these two are blind as bats, daring to provoke Lord Ling, it’s a death wish!”

The rich second-generation crowd was clamoring excitedly, having been intimidated by Su Yang before, they now finally had the confidence, each one eager to get their hands on Su Yang and Zhao Qiu Peng.

Zhao Qiu Peng was trembling. This was Ling Zi, the underworld leader of Nanluo City, an absolute top-tier figure. Even though Su Yang was strong, what good was it against Ling Zi?

”Lord Ling...” Scarface also cried out as he crawled over, pointing at Su Yang, ”Lord Ling, it’s this kid. He not only caused trouble here but also arrogantly demanded that you personally come to apologize to him. He even gave us ten minutes, Lord Ling, it’s just too disrespectful to you, you must not let him off!”

Ling Zi ignored Scarface, instead gazing intently at Su Yang. After a long while, he finally took two steps forward and, in front of all eyes, bent down and crouched, saying in a trembling voice, ”Su... Young Master Su, you’ve arrived...”

”What the hell?” Hu Jun exclaimed in shock, and the others around were also stunned. Did they hear wrong? Ling Zi called Su Yang ’Young Master Su’?

This ’Young Master Su’ was not a simple title. There were not many people who could willingly make a big figure like Ling Zi address them in such a manner; even the children of the leaders in the city might not have such privilege in front of Ling Zi. But, who was this Su Yang, and why did Ling Zi give him so much face?

”Lord Ling, have you made a mistake?” Scarface hastily said, ”This... this kid smashed up our place...”

”Shut up!” Ling Zi abruptly turned, unleashing several slaps on Scarface’s face, and shouted, ”Kneel down!”

Scarface was bewildered, suddenly kneeling, completely unaware of what was happening.

Ling Zi turned his head, bowed to Su Yang, and said, ”Young Master Su, if there’s been any offense, I apologize here and am truly sorry. It’s my fault for not managing my subordinates properly!”

Hu Jun and the others finally understood that it wasn’t a mistake by Ling Zi. It was real, Ling Zi was truly afraid of Su Yang. He was apologizing to Su Yang, seeking his forgiveness. They were also bewildered. Just what kind of background did Su Yang have?

Jiann Yunyun’s eyes were almost popping out. She had hooked up with Hu Jun because she became much more realistic after starting university. Hu Jun’s family was wealthy and influential, and she had wanted to use him as a stepping stone for her own future.

And Zhao Qiu Peng, in her eyes, was just the result of youthful ignorance. He was from an ordinary family, utterly unworthy of her, which is why she treated Zhao Qiu Peng so harshly.

But now, she suddenly realized that she might have chosen the wrong person. No matter how strong Hu Jun’s circle was, compared to someone like Su Yang, who could make Ling Zi bow and apologize, what was Hu Jun but a fart!

Su Yang slowly sipped the wine in his cup, then leisurely lifted his head to look at Ling Zi.

”Since you made it here within ten minutes, I’ll give you some face. Help me with something and all past grievances will be forgotten!” Su Yang said coldly.

Trembling with excitement, Ling Zi replied hastily, ”Young Master Su, just command me. Through fire and water, I’ll see it done!”

”Tonight is a good day for my brother, and I want to celebrate with him,” Su Yang said, looking at Zhao Qiupeng with a faint smile. ”But we’re a bit late, aren’t we? The rooms here are quite hard to book?”

Hearing this, Ling Zi immediately shivered and quickly said, ”Young Master Su, please don’t tease me. If you want to throw a party for this gentleman, just tell me, and I’ll make sure it’s done beautifully. Xiao Fei, go reserve the best room at Qingyun Clubhouse for tonight’s party for this gentleman...”

”Qingyun Clubhouse?” Hu Jun and the others’ eyes nearly popped out. They had all heard of Qingyun Clubhouse.

”What’s Qingyun Clubhouse?” Jiann Yunyun couldn’t help but ask, having never heard of it.

”You don’t know?” Standing beside her, Ding Ding whispered, ”That’s the most exclusive private club in Nanluo City, not even money can get you in. Unless a member brings you, nobody else stands a chance.”

Another boy whispered, ”My dad’s been there once. He said it’s the most luxurious place he’s ever seen in his life.”

”Is your dad a member there?” someone asked excitedly.

”No way...” The boy helplessly said, ”The little that we have doesn’t count for much there. My dad tried to get a membership, but they flat out refused to grant one!”

”Ah, even your dad can’t get in?” Everyone was astonished. That boy’s family was the wealthiest among them, wealthier even than Hu Jun. If even his dad couldn’t get a membership, how exclusive must Qingyun Clubhouse be?

Jiann Yunyun was dumbfounded. If she were still Zhao Qiupeng’s girlfriend, she would definitely have been able to enter Qingyun Clubhouse tonight. And seeing how Su Yang was treating Zhao Qiupeng, she would’ve surely been one of the stars of the evening!

”No need to change locations...” Just then, Su Yang waved his hand and said, ”This place is fine, just arrange things here.”

”Ah, here?” Ling Zi said in a low voice, ”Young Master Su, Young Master Zhao, this venue is only mediocre, not high-end. The Qingyun Clubhouse would be a bit better...”

”No need!” Su Yang waved his hand decisively, ”I have more friends coming over later, we’ll just set up here for tonight. By the way, you have Hou Shilin’s number, right? Call him and tell him I’m looking for him!”

Ling Zi, so excited he nearly fell over, was well aware that Hou Shilin ignoring him was largely due to Su Yang.

In fact, Ling Zi was in charge of the Hou Family’s underground forces, and it would have been most convenient and fitting for Hou Shilin to take over these forces and enlist Ling Zi for his own use.

But because Ling Zi had previously led people to trouble Su Yang, Hou Shilin had not dared to associate with Ling Zi and had even denied him the chance to meet.

Now, with Su Yang directly asking him to call Hou Shilin, it was clearly a golden opportunity.

Ling Zi couldn’t help but feel fortunate inside that he hadn’t made the wrong choice tonight. What’s the use of face if he couldn’t safeguard himself? That was what truly mattered. Besides, apologizing to Su Yang didn’t embarrass him—it was a person even Hou Shilin had to treat with the utmost respect!

”Young Master Su, please wait a moment. I’ll arrange everything right away.” Ling Zi almost jumped up as he exclaimed loudly, ”Xiao Fei, go out and manage it immediately. Clear out this venue; tonight, we’re not welcoming anyone else. Kick out all the guests in the private rooms, not a single one stays. Tonight, the entire venue is for Young Master Su and Young Master Zhao’s party.”

”Also, go to other venues and clubs, summon all the most popular and beautiful girls for me. All other places can cease operation tonight, but make sure this feast is done to perfection!”

The underlings scurried off in a hurry, while Hu Jun and the others turned pale. Ling Zi’s words had shocked them.

Although the Night Banquet wasn’t the most luxurious place under Ling Zi’s management, a lot of guests were entertained there each night. Moreover, at this time of night, just after nine o’clock, it was peak time when the venue was most crowded. Normally, owners would want their businesses to run smoothly, avoiding any trouble.

But now, Ling Zi actually intended to drive all the customers away to make room for Su Yang and Zhao Qiupeng’s party? Was he no longer interested in his venue’s business? How much effort would it take to recover from an incident like this?

Furthermore, the key point was that Ling Zi wasn’t only disrupting this one venue; he was to bring all the in-demand girls from other places, intending to disrupt their business as well. Wasn’t Ling Zi being too capricious? Who on earth was Su Yang, and what kind of clout did he have to make Ling Zi treat him this way?

”By the way, Ling Zi, do me a favor...” Su Yang spoke nonchalantly, gesturing with his hand. ”Throw these people out too. Tonight’s a good day for my brother, and I don’t want them around.”

”Alright!” A gleam flashed in Ling Zi’s eyes as he waved his hand and coldly commanded, ”Come on, drag them all out!”
