Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 62: Chapter 62 They Are Together

”Also, big brother, do you really think this Su Yang saved our father?” Hou Xiaozhi shouted, ”Let me tell you the truth, I’ve investigated everything. This Su Yang is in cahoots with Master Fang.”

”The two of them set up a trap together, first letting Master Fang deceive me. Then they exposed Master Fang’s plot, using some sleight of hand trickery, to scare everyone and make it look like he was some sort of real master.”

”In fact, he’s just a small-time thug from our very own Nanluo City, his parents are employees at Jianshe Machinery Factory.”

”Three years ago, he got into a fight with a classmate and put a student into a vegetative state, and he had to flee. Somehow he managed to spend three years in the military before returning. Next thing you know, he’s teamed up with Master Fang to set up this scam, all to deceive the Hou Family!”

Everyone was shocked; this information was indeed quite unexpected.

”How could the military enlist such a person? This is outrageous!” Commander Hu barked angrily.

”Xiaozhi, you need to have evidence for these claims!” Hou Xiaolian hurriedly said.

”Big brother, of course I have evidence, that’s why I dare to speak like this!” Hou Xiaozhi took a step back and said, ”Speaking of evidence, I should thank my nephew Li Chengze. He helped me reveal Su Yang’s true face. Chengze, come and tell everyone what you know!”

Li Chengze entered smugly, glancing at Su Yang, and placed a stack of photos on the table, saying, ”Here is the evidence everyone’s been looking for!”

Everyone picked up the photos, and Hou Xiaozhi explained, ”These photos were taken by Chengze’s friend. The person inside is Master Fang. He and Su Yang had a secret meeting at the city hospital at night, discussing how to cheat the Hou Family. These two, conspiring together, aimed to take control of the Hou Family and rule over Nanluo City as kings!”

Hou Xiangde and Hou Xiaolian also saw the photos, both frowning because the people in the photos were indeed Su Yang and Master Fang. The photos couldn’t be faked, showing that Su Yang and Master Fang did have secret contacts!

After a moment of silence, Hou Xiangde said, ”Just these few photos aren’t enough to conclude that Master Su colluded with this Fang. Moreover, as far as I know, Master Su did not kill Master Fang. Master Fang should be grateful to Master Su, so maybe he went to thank him, right?”

Li Chengze immediately said, ”Grandfather Hou, let me remind you, these photos were taken before the incident at the Hou Family!”

”What!?” Everyone exclaimed in shock. If the photos were indeed taken before the incident at the Hou Family, it could indeed prove that Su Yang had colluded with Master Fang.

”But...” Hou Xiaolian frowned and said, ”If they wanted to deceive us, Master Fang coming over would have been enough, why bother making Su Yang appear? This is just superfluous!”

Li Chengze laughed and said, ”Uncle Hou, if you want to understand why they set this trap, you first need to know something. That is, Master Fang is also a charlatan seeking fame.”

”Master Fang came to Nanluo City because his tricks were exposed in Kun City, and his reputation was completely ruined, making it impossible for him to stay there.”

”But Master Fang isn’t foolish. He knew that the stories from Kun City would eventually spread to Nanluo City. If he continued to deceive people with his own identity, he would be exposed sooner or later. Therefore, he and Su Yang put on this whole act.”

”Master Fang sacrificed his own credibility to elevate this so-called Master Su, thereby winning the Hou Family’s trust for Su Yang, who then could influence the Hou Family to do things according to his wishes. Like driving my uncle away and handing over all the Hou Family’s assets to Hou Shilin.”

”And Hou Shilin, must be in league with Su Yang. As far as I know, he had Ling Zi transfer some of Qingyun Clubhouse’s shares into Su Yang’s name. Heh, wouldn’t this be considered the beginning of dividing up the Hou Family’s assets?”

Hearing this, everyone’s expression changed, and they all looked toward Su Yang with hostility in their eyes.

Although Hou Xiangde and Hou Xiaolian had witnessed Su Yang’s capabilities, at this moment, they too were filled with doubt. After all, Li Chengze had presented evidence!

Li Weixian was the first to angrily say, ”Su, what more do you have to say for yourself now?”

Su Yang smiled faintly without speaking, as if he hadn’t heard Li Weixian’s words.

Li Chengze coldly said, ”Mr. Su, my grandfather is talking to you. Are you deaf or mute? What’s the matter, too scared to speak now?”

Su Yang slowly raised his wine glass and said softly, ”Li Chengze, what exactly is the relationship between you and this friend of yours? He took photos of me with Master Fang before I even came to the Hou Family. Is he that interested in me?”

Everyone was taken aback; indeed, getting these photos before the incident occurred seemed too prescient of Li Chengze’s friend.

”Hehe...” Li Chengze let out a cold laugh and said, ”Mr. Su, at this point, are you still trying to weasel out of this? Fine, today, I will make you admit defeat wholeheartedly.”

Li Chengze turned and walked outside. After a short while, he returned with a middle-aged man.

”Let me introduce him to you all...” Li Chengze said, ”This is Master Chen from Kun City. He has recently gained quite a reputation in Kun City, and I’m sure many of you have heard of him. That so-called Master Fang was exposed by Master Chen. And the friend I mentioned earlier is this very Master Chen!”

Everyone looked over, and even Number Two and Number Three were slightly moved, given Master Chen’s recent prominence.

”Is this Master Chen?” Xu Jianqin said, filled with excitement, ”I’ve heard that Master Chen can ascend to the clouds and command the wind and rain, possessing supernatural powers beyond human comprehension!”

”That’s not all!” Li Weixian immediately said, ”Master Chen once single-handedly vanquished three hundred malevolent spirits that were causing chaos in Beicang Mountain, restoring its tranquility. Now, the once sparsely populated Beicang Mountain has even started to be developed for tourism; He is a divine being of our province!”

Everyone exclaimed in astonishment, and Number Two and Number Three also showed shocked expressions, having heard of the events at Beicang Mountain as well.

Beicang Mountain had beautiful scenery, but it was also the site of many peculiar incidents, with barely anyone entering able to make it out alive, which had hindered its development until now.

Recently, however, Beicang Mountain had actually started to be developed, and they had all been curious about the matter. Now they realized it was all thanks to Master Chen.

Master Chen wore a look of smug arrogance, showing no sign of respect even in the presence of people like Commander Hu, Number Two, and Number Three.

Su Yang looked at Master Chen and smiled faintly, saying, ”So, are you saying that you were the one who took those photos?”

”I wouldn’t bother myself with such trivial matters!” Master Chen said coldly, ”It was a young disciple of mine who took the photos. After Master Fang left Kun City, I was worried he might continue to deceive others, so I sent my disciple to follow him. And that led me to uncover this conspiracy!”

Everyone nodded, accepting Master Chen’s explanation for the origin of the photos. This also further confirmed that Su Yang was indeed in cahoots with Master Fang in deceiving others.
