Tycoon War God

Chop into pieces and feed to the dogs?!

The whole venue was shocked by Xu Shanhu’s words. Many guests sensed that something was wrong and quietly left. It was clear that something big was about to happen; anyone who stayed would surely get caught in the crossfire.

With a wave of his hand, Cheng Bugui had his men quickly usher the guests out and then shut the massive doors.

BOOM!

The loud bang of the closing doors jolted Security Chief Wei awake.

”Third Master, what’s going on?” Security Chief Wei pointed at Cheng Bugui and said, ”It was him! He dared to speak your name directly! I was just standing up for your honor!”

”Tsk, tsk. Xu Shanhu, Third Master?” Cheng Bugui looked at Xu Shanhu, his eyes narrowed. ”Since when am I not allowed to say your name?”

Xu Shanhu was startled and didn’t dare to reply. Instead, he grabbed a steel knife from a subordinate and swung it fiercely.

SLASH!

With a tragic cry, one of Security Chief Wei’s hands fell to the floor.

The bloody scene terrified Su Ke’er. She screamed and quickly hid behind Lin Mu.

”Ah, my hand!” Security Chief Wei clutched his arm, his face twisted in agony. ”Third Master, what did I do wrong? What did I do?!”

Rolling on the ground in pain, his blood stained the floor red.

”What did you do wrong?” Xu Shanhu strode toward Security Chief Wei, his eyes bloodshot and filled with murderous intent. ”Do you have any fucking idea you almost got me killed?!”

He swung the knife again, chopping off the man’s other hand.

”ARGH!” Security Chief Wei’s eyes bulged from the pain as he began to babble, ”Third Master, spare me! Spare my life...”

Watching Security Chief Wei writhing on the ground, both Xue Lang and the other security guards were terrified. Xu Shanhu is ruthless!

After chopping off both of the man’s hands, Xu Shanhu’s murderous aura didn’t diminish in the slightest. Instead, it was tinged with a crazed intensity.

”Do you know who you messed with? That’s my big brother! The real boss of the Clear Lotus Bar!”

Xu Shanhu’s words made Security Chief Wei’s screams stop abruptly, a look of confusion crossing his face.

”The real boss of the Clear Lotus Bar?” Security Chief Wei said in disbelief. ”Boss Cheng? He’s Boss Cheng!”

Realization, fear, and despair crawled across his face. He turned over and began dragging himself toward Xu Shanhu with his elbows. ”Third Master, please, save me! I didn’t know! I really didn’t know...”

Regret, fear, and despair completely overwhelmed him. All he could do now was beg for forgiveness.

However, Xu Shanhu simply took a deep breath. ”It’s useless.”

Security Chief Wei was one of my most capable subordinates. Despite his minor flaws, he was loyal and easy to command. But today, he provoked someone he absolutely should not have. Forget me, even Cheng Bugui can’t save his life now. That’s the Venerable Master! The most powerful being in all of River City! An Immortal-like figure beyond the imagination of ordinary people!

”If you don’t want your family to die with you, then your life is forfeit,” Xu Shanhu said, looking at Security Chief Wei with no trace of emotion.

”No!” Security Chief Wei cried out. ”No, Third Master, you can’t do this to me! I’ve been completely loyal to you! You can’t just discard our history!”

Xu Shanhu kicked him away. ”Idiot! If I didn’t care about our history, it wouldn’t just be you dying. Your entire family would have to be buried with you!”

Security Chief Wei froze, his face filled with despair as his eyes turned hollow. He knew his fate was sealed. With this thought, he opened his mouth and glanced at Lin Mu, as if wanting to say something.

”Ugh...” Suddenly, his eyes rolled back. Blood trickled from his mouth as he collapsed to the floor, dead.

CLANG.

Xu Shanhu dropped the steel knife and said coldly, ”Someone drag him out, chop him up, and feed him to the dogs!”

Even though the man was dead, the order would be followed to the letter. This was not only to vent the terror in his own heart but also to appease Cheng Bugui and Lin Mu.

A few security guards came over, dragged Security Chief Wei’s body away, and left quickly.

”Lin Mu...” Su Ke’er couldn’t bear to watch. As a young woman, she wasn’t accustomed to such bloody and cruel scenes.

Lin Mu shook his head and said dispassionately, ”The underworld has its own rules. If he had only offended me, I could have let him go. But to challenge his own boss—that’s a major taboo.”

Su Ke’er opened her mouth to speak but stopped. Looking at Lin Mu’s calm expression, her heart jolted. I almost forgot. The man beside me is the coldest, most ruthless person of all. At that thought, Su Ke’er sighed softly to herself.

After dealing with Security Chief Wei, Xu Shanhu suddenly fell to his knees before Cheng Bugui. ”Boss,” he said, his voice trembling, ”I didn’t know my man had offended you. Please punish me!”

”Idiot!” Cheng Bugui roared, kicking Xu Shanhu. ”What good is kneeling to me? The Venerable Master is still here!”

Then, to the astonishment of everyone present, Cheng Bugui dropped to his knees before Lin Mu with a thud. ”Venerable Master,” he stammered, ”I have failed to manage my subordinates. Please deliver your punishment!” His voice was filled with a profound fear.

When it came to Lin Mu, Cheng Bugui was scared to his very bones.

He wiped out the Fang Family! Half of River City’s most powerful figures knelt at the Qin Family Old Residence to confess their sins! The son of the city’s richest man, Qiao Tianhao, was killed by the Venerable Master, yet not only did Qiao Tianhao not dare to seek revenge, he became one of the Venerable Master’s subordinates! And the most powerful woman in River City is the Venerable Master’s wife!

These were the sources of Cheng Bugui’s terror. He didn’t dare to beg for forgiveness; he only hoped the Venerable Master would spare his life.

As Cheng Bugui knelt, everyone else in the bar dropped to the ground, their faces pale with fear. They stared in shock. If even Third Master and Boss Cheng were kneeling, standing would be a death wish.

Su Ke’er’s beautiful eyes widened in utter disbelief. Xue Lang, meanwhile, stared at Lin Mu, his entire body trembling with fear.

”Venerable Master, this is all my fault. Please don’t blame the boss,” Xu Shanhu pleaded, his voice trembling as he pressed his forehead to the floor. Last time, when Chen Minghu offended the Venerable Master, I had to cut off several of my own fingers to slowly appease his anger. This time, if I can’t satisfy him, my life is over. That’s why I had to kill that guard.

Lin Mu sat on the sofa, watching everyone with an indifferent expression. No one could tell what he was thinking. Sweat dripped from Cheng Bugui’s forehead, stinging as it ran into his eyes, but he didn’t dare wipe it away.

”Alright, get up,” Lin Mu finally said. ”I’ll spare your life, but you won’t escape punishment. I’ll fine Cheng Bugui one year’s share of the profits.”

Hearing this, Cheng Bugui nearly collapsed in relief but forced himself to remain composed, afraid of angering Lin Mu further. He quickly kowtowed. ”Thank you, Venerable Master, for sparing my life!”

After waving for Cheng Bugui and the others to leave, Lin Mu turned his gaze to the pale-faced Xue Lang. ”Now,” he said calmly, ”it’s your turn.”
