Chapter 141: Take a Deep Breath; Feeling Dizzy Is Normal!

Until Su Yifan completely disappeared.

At this moment,

the middle-aged man crawled out from the corner. He clutched his face and scanned his surroundings. Finding no trace of Su Yifan, he roared angrily,

"You arrogant wretch, if you have the guts, come out and fight me one-on-one!"

The moment his voice fell,

"Hiss!"

A sound suddenly echoed from nearby.

Hearing this sound,

"Thud!"

The middle-aged man was so frightened that he dropped straight to his knees. Lowering his head, he stammered, "Big brother, elder brother, big bro, it's just my big mouth. Please, a person of your stature, don't hold it against a petty man like me. Don't bother lowering yourself to my level."

"Back at home, I have an eighty-year-old son below me, and a nursing mother above me—wait, no, an eighty-year-old father above me and a nursing mother below me? Anyway, they are all counting on me!"

Yet, despite his frantic rambling, he received not the slightest response.

Right at that moment,

as a rustling sound echoed, the previously knocked-out servant from the Leng family crawled up from the ground.

"Captain Wang, is… is that you?"

Hearing these words,

Wang Lixiong slowly raised his head. When he saw the Leng family servant standing right across from him, a wave of profound embarrassment washed over him.

Damn it!

After all that fuss,

the hell was I kneeling to you for, you punk?!

Suppressing the burning fury in his heart, he stood up and motioned to the servant with a wave of his hand, "Come here. You, get over here."

Realizing that the person before him was truly Wang Lixiong of the Martial Arts Alliance, the servant was so moved he was practically in tears. "Captain Wang, you must seek justice for our Leng family!"

As he spoke, he hurried over toward Wang Lixiong.

Just as the man stepped right in front of him, Wang Lixiong suddenly raised a finger, pointed behind him, and cried in astonishment, "Lord Leng! You're not dead?"

"What? The family head isn't dead?"

Hearing this, the servant spun around in a hurry to look.

At that exact instant,

Wang Lixiong suddenly lunged from behind, wrapping his arms tightly around the servant's neck.

The servant frantically beat at Wang Lixiong's arms, gasping, "Captain Wang, what… what are you doing?"

"You damn near scared the piss out of me just now, and you're asking me what I'm doing?!"

With his arms locked in a death grip around the servant's neck, Wang Lixiong gritted his teeth and muttered darkly, "Take a deep breath. Feeling dizzy is totally normal!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

"Crack!"

With a burst of force, he snapped the servant's neck on the spot.

"Damn it! Trying to scare the hell out of me! How dare you try to scare me!"

Wang Lixiong dropped the body to the ground, and still fuming, delivered two extra kicks to it.

A short while later...

After cleaning up the scene, he finally departed.

However, no sooner had he left than

a figure silently materialized in the area.

...

More than ten minutes later.

Wang Lixiong returned to the Alliance headquarters. Catching sight of their Alliance Master, he rushed straight over and wailed tearfully, "Alliance Master, you have to seek justice for me!"

Yuan Tianhong frowned at the sight. "What is going on?"

"It's him, it's him again! He's come to Jinling to kill people once more..."

Wang Lixiong quickly and thoroughly recounted everything Su Yifan had done at the Leng family estate.

Upon hearing the report, Yuan Tianhong's expression darkened to the absolute extreme. "Damn it! This is completely lawless!"

"I didn't even settle scores with him when he wiped out the Xiao family, and now he comes back to obliterate the Leng family? Does he think Jinling is Su Yifan's personal backyard?!"

"So… Alliance Master, your meaning is?"

Wang Lixiong asked with eyes full of hopeful anticipation.

Splendid!

The Alliance Master was finally going to explode with rage.

Su Yifan! Do you really think our Jinling Martial Arts Alliance is just for show?

Just as he was daydreaming about how they would punish Su Yifan,

Yuan Tianhong spoke up with furious indignation,

"Since that brat holds me in such utter contempt, I must report this to the higher-ups immediately and demand they dispatch someone down here to severely punish him!"

Hearing this,

What?

Thinking he must have misheard, Wang Lixiong asked again,

"Alliance Master, did you just say you're going to report this, instead of going to settle accounts with that brat yourself?"

"Settle accounts with him? Was your brain eaten by a dog?"

Yuan Tianhong glared at him.

Damn it!

How could someone as brilliantly talented as himself end up with such a brainless subordinate?

It was enough to infuriate him to death!

Unconvinced, Wang Lixiong pointed to his swollen face and argued, "Alliance Master, look, this handsome face of mine was beaten up by him again. You..."

"Shut your mouth!"

Yuan Tianhong cut him off squarely. "Even the former head of the Leng family, a true Martial King, was no match for him. Are you trying to send me to my death?"

When Su Yifan had wiped out the Xiao family previously,

he had assumed Su Yifan was merely at the Martial Grandmaster level.

But now, even the former Leng family head—a genuine Martial King—had perished at this fellow's hands. How could he possibly afford to provoke such a monster?

"If we're in the right, what is there to be afraid of?"

Wang Lixiong blurted out.

"Right my foot! If that guy were someone who cared about being in the right, would he have come to Jinling to wipe out the Leng family?"

"You think we're in the right, do you? Fine! Then you go to Yuncheng right now and talk to him about righteousness!"

"I..."

Wang Lixiong choked on his words, instantly rendered speechless. Stroking his bruised cheek gently, he muttered under his breath, "F-forget it. I think being magnanimous is a virtue."

...

Meanwhile.

Su Yifan had just arrived home.

At that moment,

Su Zhengguo, Zhang Hong, Xu Shuyan, and Xie Wei immediately hurried over to greet him.

"Yifan, are you alright?"

Xu Shuyan spoke up first.

Upon returning earlier, she had asked Xie Wei about Su Yifan's whereabouts.

Learning that he had gone to the Leng family in Jinling had left her heart in her throat the entire time. Now, seeing him return safe and sound,

she finally let out a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine."

Su Yifan shook his head and added, "Don't worry, from now on, absolutely no one will ever come to bother you again."

"Mmm."

Xu Shuyan nodded, deeply moved.

Compared to five years ago,

this man possessed an even greater, irresistible charm.

Should she ask him whether he and this woman were in that kind of relationship?

But what if they were?

No, how could she think like that? What if they weren't? Wouldn't her chances be even greater then?

With that thought,

she opened her mouth to inquire.

Unexpectedly, Su Yifan spoke a step ahead of her. "Since everything is settled now, how about I send you home?"

"Ah? I..."

Xu Shuyan froze in place.

Right at that moment,

Su Zhengguo hurriedly chimed in, "Yifan, it's your classmate's first time visiting our home. The proper thing is for her to stay the night before leaving."

With that, he nudged his wife Zhang Hong with his elbow.

Though helpless, Zhang Hong wore a smile as she said,

"That's right, Yifan. Shuyan was terrified just now. Let her stay at our place for the night, and you can take her back tomorrow."

Hearing this,

a wave of joy washed over Xu Shuyan.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, stealing glances at Su Yifan's expression.

"Alright then."

Su Yifan had no choice.

Since both of his parents had spoken, if he insisted on chasing her away, he would undoubtedly endure a relentless lecture from the two of them.

Besides, staying for a night was no big deal.

Seeing that her son had no objections, Zhang Hong turned to Xie Wei. "Little Wei, why don't you stay as well?"

"Ah? Me?"

Xie Wei was momentarily flustered; she had just been preparing to take her leave.

After all, she still needed to report back regarding Su Yifan's obliteration of the Leng family.

"Little Wei, could it be that you look down on Auntie's humble home?"

Zhang Hong asked with a feigned frown.

"No, no, no, Auntie, I would never..."

Xie Wei hurriedly waved her hands in denial.

She had been trying to figure out how to decline, but these words forced her to swallow her prepared excuse right back down.

"Since you don't, then it's settled."

"Auntie is going to the market right now to buy groceries. I'll cook for you all myself tonight. Just make yourselves at home."

With that, Zhang Hong grabbed her husband and hurried out the door.

Watching his parents leave, Su Yifan shot a subtle glance at the guards lingering not far behind. The guards immediately followed after them.
