Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1222: Chapter 1221 Everything As Expected

By now, Chen Yuanchuan and his companions knew something was amiss, even if they were foolish.

The driver was Chen Yuanchuan’s younger brother, ranked Thirteenth in the family and also called Chen Shisan.

As he struggled to steady the steering wheel, he said in a grave voice, ”The coming party means no good, we must be careful!”

”There’s no need to be careful, it’s definitely that Su Yang!” Chen Yuanchuan hissed, ”Just keep the car steady, Old Qi, come with me and let’s break out!”

Old Qi followed closely behind Chen Yuanchuan. The two of them opened the car doors and leapt out like two eagles, pouncing directly toward Su Yang’s vehicle.

Su Yang had already been on guard. At that moment, they had reached near the abandoned factory area, and there was no one else around.

Without any more hesitation, Su Yang burst out of his car and met them head-on, exchanging several blows in an instant.

The three of them landed simultaneously. Su Yang stood still, while Chen Yuanchuan and Old Qi took two steps back, their expressions turning ugly.

Both of them were experts who had broken through the Sovereign’s bottleneck, and they usually prided themselves on their strength. But now, after clashing with Su Yang, they realized the gap in their strengths was not small.

”Indeed, the younger generation is to be feared!” Chen Yuanchuan said, his face shadowed, ”You must be that Master Su of Pingnan Province, right?”

”Exactly,” replied Su Yang calmly.

”What is the meaning of this, Master Su?” Chen Yuanchuan asked sternly, ”The affairs of the young should be settled by the young. I have never interfered in Hong’er’s matters, yet you ambush us. Are you trying to make irreversible enemies with the Chen Family?”

”Heh...” Su Yang chuckled coldly, ”Chen Yuanchuan, aren’t you embarrassed to say that?”

”What do you mean?” Chen Yuanchuan frowned.

”You think I don’t know what you are up to?” Su Yang countered.

Chen Yuanchuan was slightly shocked, but he maintained a calm facade and said coldly, ”We were just out discussing some business; does that bother you?”

”Chen Yuanchuan, let’s be clear. We are both here now, so stop beating around the bush!” Su Yang said icily.

Chen Yuanchuan’s face changed, and he realized that Su Yang truly knew their purpose, which surprised him. He knew Chen Benhong’s plan was seamless, but how had Su Yang come to know of it?

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yuanchuan asked soberly, ”Su Yang, how did you come to know what we were planning?”

”This is obviously the case!” Su Yang said, ”Chen Benhong was severely embarrassed last night, losing Huang Mingshan under his protection, and the whole Capital City mocked him. If he doesn’t make a significant achievement soon, he might even lose his position as heir.”

”So, for Chen Benhong, finding me and killing me is crucial. But finding me in the Capital City is not an easy task. Therefore, the best strategy for him is to capture my friends and family in Pingnan Province to force me to show myself, which is the only method he could think of.”

”Chen Benhong likely has some strategists beside him. After acting recklessly and tasting defeat several times, he has become more cautious and surely follows these strategists’ plans.”

”And their strategy is just to proceed deceptively and misleadingly. While Chen Benhong mobilizes forces on one side to divert my attention, on the other, he sends people to Pingnan Province to capture my relatives and friends.”

”After last night’s events, Chen Benhong clearly understands that you only get one opportunity to strike in Pingnan Province. A failure, if I become alert, would mean no second chance. Therefore, he had to recruit someone both reliable and strong enough for this task.”

At this point, Su Yang smiled and looked at Chen Yuanchuan, ”In this world, who else could Chen Benhong absolutely trust and just so happens to have the capability to undertake this mission, other than you, his own father? I just needed to follow you; isn’t that enough?”

Chen Yuanchuan was dumbstruck, completely shaken at the moment. Just like how Chen Benhong had reacted last night upon learning Su’s plan, he too was terrified by Su Yang’s stratagems.

How could he have anticipated that Su Yang would be able to deduce human intentions to such an extent!

Every single act of Chen Benhong and each step he had taken fell into Su Yang’s predictions!

No wonder Chen Benhong was no match for Su Yang; it wasn’t just a matter of strength, but his wit was far inferior to Su Yang’s; what could he use to compete with Su Yang?

”Su Yang, you truly are unparalleled in wit!” Chen Yuanchuan said gravely, ”Among all the people I’ve met, only Lü Donglin can compare with you. If you agree to work for the Chen Family, I guarantee that there will be a place for the Su Family among the Ten Great Families of the Capital City. Moreover, you will achieve a unique supremacy. I can personally talk to the Su Family of Yanbei to support you from behind and make you a spokesperson for the Su Family of Yanbei. Don’t forget, you all share the Su surname!”

Chen Yuanchuan extended quite a significant olive branch. The Su Family of Yanbei was a genuinely extraordinary major family. With the support of the Su Family of Yanbei, not only could Su Yang become one of the Ten Great Families of the Capital City, but he would also have dominion under heaven.

Moreover, crucially, Su Yang bore a grudge against the Su Family of Yanbei. Thus, taking this approach could resolve his enmity with the Su Family of Yanbei and solve this matter once and for all, making it an optimal choice for Su Yang.

”That proposal sounds very good!” Su Yang nodded.

Chen Yuanchuan, delighted, quickly said, ”As the saying goes, it’s better to resolve disputes than to deepen them. If we continue to fight like this, it will only end in mutual destruction. So why not put aside these grudges and unite for a brighter future, don’t you think?”

”What you say also sounds very good...” Su Yang said slowly, ”It’s just a pity that I have one big flaw—I don’t take advice!”

Chen Yuanchuan’s face instantly chilled as he gritted his teeth, ”Su Yang, are you playing me?”

”Are you playing me, or am I playing you?” Su Yang retorted, ”Chen Yuanchuan, what are you to change the will of the Su Family of Yanbei? The Su Family of Yanbei wants me dead; it doesn’t matter whether it’s you or the Chen Family Head or your Earth Immortals who intervene, you can’t change that fact, so how could you?”

”Besides, the Chen Family was originally supported by the Su Family of Yanbei, being their spokesperson. Now you say you want me to become the spokesperson for the Su Family of Yanbei? Then what place do you plan for your Chen Family?”

”At this time, saying these words, to first deceive me, lure me to the Chen Family, and then have people from the Chen Family capture me. Chen Yuanchuan, stop playing these little tricks in front of me; it only exposes your intelligence!”
