At this moment, even Chu Zhenxiong himself felt that in his life, he had never had such a crazy idea.
He was staking the rise and fall of prestige on an eighteen-year-old boy.
It was not just crazy.
It was like trying to take a chestnut out of the fire and dancing on the edge of a knife!
However.
In his declining years, Chu Zhenxiong's ambitions still burned strong.
Chu Zhenxiong's eyes suddenly erupted with a sharp gleam as he declared in a resounding voice, "I, Chu Family, am determined to unite with Mr. Qin. Even if the whole world abandons him, I, Chu Zhenxiong, will stand behind him!"
The room was in an uproar.
The fiery anger in Lu Zhan Tu's eyes seemed to condense into substance!
His son Lu Jinghong was still struggling for his life in the hospital. Even if he survived, he would surely become a cripple.
Yet the Chu Family, who had always been on good terms with them, was now siding with Qin Xuan at such a time!
"You old bastard, looks like you're asking for death!" Lu Zhan Tu nearly gritted his teeth to pieces, and the bulging veins on his face surfaced.
Then Qian Chenghu stood up and said firmly, "I'm the same as Elder Chu."
"You!" Lu Zhan Tu pointed at Qian Chenghu and berated, "Chu Zhenxiong, that stubborn old man, still has the guts to fight me. Who do you think you are?"
Qian Chenghu said no more.
He had always harbored a nightmare deep down.
That night, everything Gu Simin in a red skirt did in the basement still sent chills down his spine.
Plus, Qin Xuan himself was an even more formidable existence than Lv Yingxin...
Facing someone like this, Qian Chenghu had already been scared after being beaten once. Now he absolutely dared not offend him again!
By now, almost everyone had voiced their stance.
Only Zhu Chenglei and the Qi Family were left.
Lu Zhan Tu forcefully suppressed his fury as his eyes fell on Zhu Chenglei. "What do you say? I heard you invited the brat into the VIP lounge tonight. You can't conceal your ingratiating intentions anymore..."
There was a trace of struggle in Zhu Chenglei's eyes.
If it had been an hour earlier, he would have definitely stood by Qin Xuan, after all he had stood out when Meng Xuekun attempted a comeback.
But an hour ago, a call from the Meng Family of Guangzhou had secretly and severely hammered him!
Zhu Chenglei would never have imagined the Meng Family of Guangzhou had become so powerful after years of keeping a low profile...
They seemed to be just one step away from contending for dominance over Jiangdong!
Based on this, Zhu Chenglei sighed and said, "I'll remain neutral."
"I've said it before, there is no neutral. Give me an answer quickly. When the dust settles, I will settle accounts one by one!" Lu Zhan Tu pressed aggressively.
Zhu Chenglei secretly clenched his fists.
He didn't want to offend anyone, but Lu Zhan Tu had obviously been provoked to the point of losing his reason.
Remaining neutral now was no different from openly siding with Qin Xuan.
Alas.
Zhu Chenglei finally compromised, "I stand with the Lu Family."
"Very good!" Lu Zhan Tu's eyes lit up fiercely. Finally, he looked at Qi Yonggui.
Just as Qi Yonggui was about to speak, the Qi Family's old master suddenly rushed over in a flurry, with Chu Qingya by his side!
Undoubtedly, the Qi Family's old master had just returned to Yuncheng and hadn't had time to rest before Chu Qingya anxiously brought him over.
Chu Qingya really hadn't expected that her own grandfather would be so muddle-headed as to still dare to side with Qin Xuan at this time!
"Yonggui, get over here!"
The Qi Family's old master raged, "What have you been messing around with while I was away?"
"Dad, I know what you mean, but I still want to stand by Mr. Qin. Trust me this once. In the future, he will definitely not shortchange us." Qi Yonggui said through gritted teeth.
"..."
Everyone was shocked speechless.
The Qi Family's old master even slapped Qi Yonggui across the face right there. "Ungrateful child, since when did the Qi Family allow you to call the shots?!"
Qi Yonggui's cheeks stung from the slap, but his expression remained unchanged. "It's true I can't call the shots, but I have to express my stance even if you take everything away from me. I will stand by Mr. Qin!"
Most people looked at Qi Yonggui as if he were a fool.
But Chu Zhenxiong thought to himself: "In the entire Qi Family, only Yonggui has this kind of courage. Unfortunately, the truth is always in the hands of a minority. Otherwise, successful people wouldn't be so few and far between in this world."
The atmosphere suddenly became suffocatingly heavy.
The Qi Family's old master trembled with anger. Finally, he took a deep breath and said to Qi Yonggui, "Ungrateful child, don't expect any more support from me starting today!"
These words sealed Qi Yonggui's fate.
They also indirectly indicated the Qi Family was siding with the Lu Family!
Chu Qingya could no longer hold back. "Grandpa, don't keep being confused. It's still not too late to change your mind now. Do you want the Chu Family to fall in your generation?!"
"What did you say?" Chu Zhenxiong's expression stiffened.
"I said you're muddled and your brain's flooded. Change your mind now while it's not too late, or the Chu Family will really be ruined by you!!" Chu Qingya roared recklessly.
The next instant, a ghostly figure suddenly floated in from the doorway.
Slap!
Chu Qingya's entire body flew out.
Everyone took a close look.
It was none other than Lv Yingxin!
And at the doorway, Qin Xuan in a black suit walked in with his hands behind his back!
Even though this reception room wasn't very big, it could be called a gathering of masters in Yuncheng.
Any random person in it was a top noble in Yuncheng.
But now, everyone's gazes falling on the eighteen-year-old youth made them involuntarily feel a tightness in their hearts.
This stemmed from Qin Xuan's aura and oppressive might, as well as the mysterious background behind Qin Xuan that was hard to discern!
"Mr. Qin!"
Chu Zhenxiong rushed to Qin Xuan's side at once.
Qian Chenghu followed closely behind.
Qin Xuan nodded slightly, then looked at Chu Qingya sprawled on the ground and said indifferently, "Do you know that the only reason you've been able to make trouble until now is because of your grandfather's existence? Without your grandfather, you're no different from a corpse in my eyes."
"Who do you think you are, only my muddled grandpa would be fooled by you. You're nothing..."
Bang!
Lv Yingxin stomped down and instantly crushed Chu Qingya's knee bones, making her shriek incessantly in pain.
"Go on, keep scolding." Lv Yingxin said leisurely.
Chu Qingya's shamelessness stemmed from her bones. Even at this point, she moved her lips as if wanting to say something.
Afraid that his granddaughter would die here, Chu Zhenxiong hurriedly had people carry her out.
Seeing that Qin Xuan didn't stop them, Chu Zhenxiong quickly said, "Thank you Mr. Qin for not holding her actions against you. From now on I will strictly restrain her. There won't be a next time!"
"..."
The others were shocked speechless again.
It seemed Chu Zhenxiong was not simply siding with Qin Xuan.
He had willingly lowered his stance and regarded himself as a subordinate.
Yet he was one of the four great families, the leader of the Chu Family!!
"Old Chu, you'll regret abasing yourself like this sooner or later."
Lu Zhan Tu gnashed his teeth, then pointed at Qin Xuan. "I haven't gone looking for you yet you dare take the initiative to come here?"
"Come, hit me. I'll stand right here and let you hit me. I'll even let you hit back once. It'll count as my loss." Qin Xuan said lightly.
"You!!"
Lu Zhan Tu was so angry that smoke seemed to rise from his seven apertures.
What could be more humiliating than this?
The other party was being so arrogant yet he truly didn't dare make a move!
Even Meng Xuekun from Guangzhou had his palms chopped off, a pain even more excruciating than Jiang Feiyu's broken bones...
Facing someone like this who acted unscrupulously, as if no one could restrain him, if Lu Zhan Tu considered things from the family's standpoint, he absolutely didn't dare act rashly!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be demanding everyone's stance here. He would have just attacked already!
"Ridiculous."
Qin Xuan shook his head on his own and glanced at Chu Zhenxiong, Qi Yonggui and Qian Chenghu. He openly said, "I've seen all your attitudes. No matter your intentions, I won't let you take on these pressures for nothing."
The three were instantly overjoyed.
This was Qin Xuan's public promise!
Although the future situation was still uncertain, at this moment, they already felt their blood boil!
Next, Qin Xuan's gaze swept over Lu Zhan Tu and the others. He said calmly with a hint to Lv Yingxin, "Give them a little gift, one slap per person."
Like thunder from a clear sky.
These plain words made everyone's expressions change dramatically.
He actually...
He dares to be so arrogant!
Lu Zhan Tu was furious and roared on the spot: "I see you are inflated and don't even know your own name. This is my Lu family!"
"I've said it before, I'm standing here letting you hit me and I won't fight back, but you don't dare to... If that's the case, why are you still yapping?" Qin Xuan shrugged and said somewhat annoyed: "This Lu guy is too noisy, give him a few more slaps."
Lv Yingxin immediately nodded and went up to fiercely slap Lu Zhan Tu's face over a dozen times!
Following that were the Jiang family, Shi family...
The various famous masters of Yuncheng were stunned as Lv Yingxin took turns slapping their faces.
From beginning to end.
Not a single person dared to dodge!
Slap, slap, slap!
The crisp sound of slapping continuously rang out!
At this moment, Lu Zhan Tu gritted his teeth so hard that blood was flowing out. In all his life, he had never been so angry before. "If I didn't carry the future of the Lu family on my shoulders, I would die just to make you pay!"
"Are you afraid that even the Meng family of Yangcheng is not my match, so you want to see them make a move against me first to test the waters?" Qin Xuan asked with a smile.
Lu Zhan Tu gnashed his teeth and said, "Get lost! I admit defeat tonight, but who will have the last laugh is still uncertain. If you really have such a powerful background and identity, your information would not be so brief. I'm waiting for the day the bubble of your mysterious background pops!"
"You talk too much, have another slap," Qin Xuan said lightly.
Slap!
Lv Yingxin slapped with full force, directly sending Lu Zhan Tu flying, and knocking out several of his teeth.
Then.
Qin Xuan turned around and left, his voice drifting away indifferently: "The four major families of Yuncheng, the Lu, Jiang, Qi... So-called elites? A bunch of trash."
A bunch of trash!
These four words.
Kept violently shaking in everyone's hearts for several minutes after Qin Xuan left!
