Chapter 1338: The Xu Family's Fury
"Junior brother, you are the future Family Head of the Gao family, even the future king of the 108 realms. Your path ahead is long. You must take this lesson to heart; learn to endure, and remember that there are always people stronger than you. I believe that one day you will stand at the pinnacle and become an emperor." As the words fell, Gao Long spat a mouthful of blood, his energy instantly withering.
"Senior brother, I will definitely tear Lin Chen to pieces to avenge you." The Dwarf Tiger said, crying and gritting his teeth in hatred.
"Junior brother, if my death can make you grow, then it's worth it. The guy from the Earth realm is very strong; you're no match for him. I don't need you to avenge me, I just want you to become a king, then I can die with a smile." Gao Long knew he didn't have much time left, so he poured out his heartfelt words.
The Dwarf Tiger held the blood-covered Gao Long tightly, tears in his eyes. Now there was only one thought in his mind: revenge, completely ignoring Gao Long's dying advice.
In the west city, Lin Chen returned to the nightclub.
Xu Wei originally wanted to sneak away but was caught by Jin Bingbing's people.
At this moment, Xu Wei's face was ashen. He didn't expect that the two supposedly formidable experts would be so useless.
Watching Lin Chen walk into the nightclub, Xu Wei's body trembled.
Lin Chen sat in the booth and said to Jin Bingbing, "Bingbing, make me a drink."
"Okay." Jin Bingbing nodded obediently and expertly made a Bloody Rose for Lin Chen.
Lin Chen looked icily at Xu Wei and said coldly, "Young Master Xu, we meet again."
Xu Wei knelt abruptly in front of Lin Chen: "Brother Chen, this is all a misunderstanding. I was brought here by them; I had no choice."
Lin Chen took a sip of the Bloody Rose and sneered, "They brought you here? Who is Young Master Xu that you could be so easily brought here?"
Xu Wei looked miserable and said, "Brother Chen, I was wrong. I won't dare again."
Lin Chen's gaze turned cold: "I already gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. Do you think I'll let you go this time?"
Seeing Lin Chen's icy gaze, Xu Wei knew that Lin Chen wouldn't spare him this time, so he simply stood up.
"Lin Chen, if you dare to touch me, don't regret it. I'm from the Xu family in the provincial capital." Xu Wei said coldly.
"Xu family? Not too familiar. You wanted to use those two idiots to deal with me, but unfortunately, you miscalculated. They ran away, so I'll settle this account with you first." With that, Lin Chen stood up and walked towards Xu Wei.
Xu Wei's expression changed slightly as he watched Lin Chen approach, retreating two steps.
"Lin Chen, think it over, what will be the consequences of harming me?" Xu Wei's eyes flashed with panic.
Lin Chen snorted coldly: "Consequences? I don't need to think about it, but since you offended me, you should bear the consequences."
As he spoke, Lin Chen abruptly grasped Xu Wei's neck and lifted him.
At this moment, a graceful figure suddenly rushed in.
"Lin Chen, you cannot kill him." Xu Zhiruo said urgently.
Lin Chen looked at Xu Zhiruo, his voice cold: "Why not?"
Xu Zhiruo took a deep breath and said, "Lin Chen, do you know how immense the Xu family is? If you kill him, the Xu family will fight you to the death."
"To the death? Welcome. If they dare to provoke me, I'll kill whoever comes. Today, he must die."
As the words fell, Lin Chen exerted force with his hand.
"Crack!"
With a crisp sound, Xu Wei's body went limp on the ground, dead.
This seemingly weak Xu Wei, however, had a heart of utter malice. If it wasn't for Duo Mi and Duo Ling's desperate rescue, if he hadn't arrived in time, Qiao Xue and Jin Bingbing might have fallen victim.
Lin Chen would not let such a dangerous person leave alive.
Watching Xu Wei die, Xu Zhiruo collapsed onto the sofa behind her.
She sighed, looking at Lin Chen: "You've really stirred up big trouble this time."
...
At night, An City was brilliantly lit by neon lights.
But in a courtyard in downtown An City, a depressing atmosphere hung in the air.
An City is the capital of Shan Province, it's been the imperial capital of the Hua Xia dynasty since ancient times, with thirteen dynasties establishing capitals here.
As the capital of Shan Province, An City boasts a developed economy, but in this city, a gigantic family, the Xu family, wields power.
It can be said that the Xu family controls one-third of An City's economic lifeline, even commanding the entire underworld of An City.
In An City, no one dares to offend the Xu family, whether they are of the underworld or the legal world.
However, today, the Xu family was steeped in sorrow.
Because the eldest young master, the future heir of the Xu family, Xu Wei, was killed.
Such an event had never occurred in the Xu family. A member of the Xu family was killed, and the heir, no less, causing shock throughout the entire Xu family, even sparking a storm in An City.
Within the Xu family's vast estate, luxurious mansions stood tall; this lavish estate was the Xu family, known far and wide in An City.
In the Xu family hall, a large crowd gathered, all senior figures of the Xu family were present.
In the center, an elder sat on a mahogany chair, his gaze icy cold.
Though this elder was over seventy, he was full of energy, his eyes shining, without a hint of old age.
This elder was Xu Da, the current Family Head of the Xu family.
Xu Da's expression was gloomy, his eyes filled with intense killing intent, causing everyone present to tremble.
The hall was silent, the senior members of the Xu family all kept their heads down, not daring to make a sound.
In the center of the hall lay a corpse, it was Xu Wei.
"Xu Zhiruo, can you tell me what happened? Why did Wei'er die so tragically in the west city?" Xu Da said, his voice icy.
Xu Da's gaze bore into Xu Zhiruo, his voice carrying a sinister edge, causing her to shiver.
"Family Head, Xu Wei was killed by Lin Chen, but it started when Young Master Xu took two mysterious experts to trouble Lin Chen. Those mysterious people were driven away by Lin Chen, who then held Xu Wei responsible for everything." Xu Zhiruo said softly.
She had warned Xu Wei about this, but he didn't listen, and things turned out this way; there was nothing she could do.
"Bang!" Xu Da slammed his hand onto the mahogany table, shattering it to pieces.
"I don't care why this Lin Chen killed Xu Wei; he dared to harm someone from our Xu family, he must die." Xu Da's eyes burned with anger, exuding a chilling killing intent.
"Family Head, Lin Chen is very strong; the two experts Young Master Xu brought were likely at the Demigod level and were still no match for him." Xu Zhiruo said solemnly.
"What? Even Demigod-level experts aren't his match?" Xu Da's eyes gleamed sharply.
"How old is this Lin Chen?" Xu Da's expression changed.
"Twenty-four," Xu Zhiruo said.
"What? Twenty-four!" Instantly, the entire Xu family hall fell silent.
