Supreme Warrior in the City

Young Master Zhou and the others were stunned; their elders had repeatedly warned them never to provoke Su Yang. And now, they had gone and done just that.

In such a situation, to call their parents, the family heads, over— they were sure their parents would beat them to death first!

Seeing that no one spoke, Su Yang set down the teacup in his hand and said softly, ”It seems you all disagree with my suggestion. Since that is the case, let me be straightforward, and I’ll simply let your Zhou Family die out!”

Frightened to the point of wetting themselves, Young Master Zhou quickly said, ”Master Su, Master Su, we... we don’t disagree, it’s just... just...”

”I don’t need reasons!” Su Yang said coldly. ”I just need to know, will you call them, or not?”

Facing Su Yang’s domineering presence, what could Young Master Zhou say? Helplessly hanging his head, he said with a trembling voice, ”Then... then I’ll make the call now.”

”You have half an hour,” Su Yang said coldly. ”If they’re not here by then, don’t blame me for being rude!”

The people from the Zhou Family left the room, looking at each other with extremely unsightly expressions.

”What should we do?” a young man said in a low voice. ”If my dad finds out I’ve offended Master Su, he... he’ll skin me alive!”

”Nonsense, if my dad finds out about this, he won’t spare me either!” another young man said.

”We can’t just not call, can we? If we actually don’t get someone over here, I reckon we’ll all die here today!” another young man whispered.

”So what do we do now?” everyone looked at Young Master Zhou in unison, for he was the leader here and his father was currently the most powerful in the Zhou Family. Naturally, it was up to him to decide now.

Taking a deep breath, Young Master Zhou said in a grave voice, ”Actually, we don’t necessarily have to call our parents over.”

”What do you mean?” the crowd was astonished. ”You dare to defy Master Su? From the way he is, if we don’t call, he’ll definitely kill us!”

”Of course we can’t defy him!” Young Master Zhou paused, then said softly, ”Didn’t he just say to call our parents and the family head over? We can just call the family head. Whatever happens, let the family head discuss it with him. Making apologies or whatever, that’s Zhou Anping’s problem. If things go south, it’s because Zhou Anping didn’t handle it well, and it’s none of our business!”

Everyone was overjoyed, a young man with short hair said excitedly, ”Third brother, your suggestion is great. Zhou Anping has been comfortably acting as the family head recently, it’s about time he stepped up and made an appearance.”

”Yeah, being the family head means taking responsibility. If he apologizes and Master Su accepts, then he’s the one who loses face. If Master Su doesn’t accept, then it’s his incapability as the family head!”

”If Master Su doesn’t accept, then we can use this as a pretext to drive him from his position as the family head!”

”Killing two birds with one stone, getting the best of both worlds, third brother has a great idea. Let’s do just that!”

The group babbled excitedly, while Young Master Zhou’s lips curved into a cold smile, and he whispered, ”I’ll call Zhou Anping right now. From here on out, it’s up to them to deal with this matter. We’ll just sit back and enjoy the show.”

In the private room, Chen Benhao sat next to Su Yang, saying with a smirk, ”Who do you think you are, a schoolteacher? Having people call their parents over, what are they going to do? Take them home for a scolding?”

”Heh heh...” Su Yang chuckled softly. ”Not exactly. It’s just that I’ve had some issues with the Zhou Family and have been looking for an excuse to deal with it. This opportunity just happens to be perfect to take care of it all!”

”Really?” Chen Benhao said. ”You might be overdoing it a bit though, right? You said you were helping me handle something but ended up dealing with your own matters too!”

”Well, you haven’t been exactly upfront yourself,” Su Yang responded. ”You could have taken care of these nobodies by yourself with one hand, and yet you didn’t lift a finger, waiting for me. That’s just laziness!”

Chen Benhao chuckled, ”It’s your territory. If I had dealt with them myself, wouldn’t that overshadow your capabilities?”

”Give me a break!” Su Yang scoffed. Now he could see that Chen Benhao was just looking for some amusement.

In fact, Su Yang didn’t know that Chen Benhao originally had no intention of getting involved with Hu Shao and the others. It was mainly because the girl wouldn’t stop nagging him beside him, criticizing him for being defeated by Su Yang the other night, forcing him to divert the girl’s attention.

The girl had just given the people from the Zhou Family a good scolding here, and her anger had noticeably lessened. Otherwise, she might still be nagging now.

Soon after, Young Master Zhou and the others came in, with Young Master Zhou lowering his head, saying, ”Master Su, our... our family head is here.”

Su Yang had long expected this to be the case. He didn’t reveal it directly and simply said calmly, ”Bring him in!”

Young Master Zhou went out, and before long, Zhou Anping hurried over.

His status as the family head was indeed rather average; he didn’t even have a driver and had to drive himself over.

”Master Su, my apologies for the inconvenience. The road was a bit congested,” Zhou Anping said awkwardly.

Su Yang, with a calm expression, gestured casually to the chair beside him, ”Sit!”

”Thank you!” Zhou Anping walked over and sat down, still with half of his buttocks hanging off the chair, looking every bit fearful and anxious.

”Master Su, I’ve been told by my nephew there were some misunderstandings between you and them just now,” Zhou Anping said awkwardly. ”I’m really sorry about that. They’re young and ignorant, and I would like to apologize to you for any offense they might have caused.”

”No hurry,” Su Yang said leisurely. ”Let’s wait a little longer.”

”Wait?” Zhou Anping was puzzled. ”Wait for... what?”

Su Yang checked his watch. ”Seven minutes to go until half an hour is up. I asked for their parents and the Zhou Family head to come. Now, only the Zhou Family head has arrived. It seems their parents really don’t take me seriously!”

Upon hearing this, Young Master Zhou and the others’ faces changed. They had thought that with Zhou Anping, the family head, coming over, they could just brush this matter aside.

But now it seemed that Su Yang was not someone to be trifled with. If their parents didn’t come, it appeared that it couldn’t be helped at all.

Young Master Zhou and the rest hastily looked at Zhou Anping, gesturing to him with their eyes, urging him to quickly handle the situation.

Zhou Anping said hastily, ”Master Su, I’m really sorry but today... today the Zhou Family is quite busy, they’ve all gone out for business, and many are not even in Zhongzhou City at the moment. I’m afraid... I’m afraid they can’t make it...”

”That’s none of my business!” Su Yang said with a smile. ”They have to come, even if they’re at the ends of the earth. If they can’t make it, that’s their own problem, not mine.”

”You... you’re making things difficult for us!” Young Master Zhou was anxious. ”My dad has gone out of town on business. You’re asking him to get here in half an hour; how is that possible? Even by plane, it would take more than an hour to arrive. You’re just looking for excuses to go against us!”
