Why?
Why did this happen?
Xur Hai-Sheng couldn't wrap his mind around it.
However, Li Hong-Ze didn't care how Xur Hai-Sheng felt. After he announced his sentence, he waved and gestured for Xur Hai-Sheng to go reflect on his ways.
"Why are you still here? Do you want to get demoted by two more ranks?" asked Li Hong-Ze as he frowned when he noticed Xur Hai-Sheng had no intention of leaving.
Xur Hai-Sheng raised his head and asked, "I just want to know why. Isn't Ye Fan just a punk from Jiangdong without any background or accomplishments? But why do you hold him in such high esteem that you are willing to punish the Xur family? I don't understand. I simply don't understand. We have three accomplished generals in our family. You mean we can't rival one mere gangster?"
Xur Hai-Sheng's eyes turned red as he looked at Li Hong-Ze and roared deeply with indignance.
Li Hong-Ze didn't get angry. Instead, he looked at Xur Hai-Sheng expressionlessly. "You don't have to know why. All you need to remember is that your family offended the wrong person. The Xur and Lu families combined can't compare to him."
Li Hong-Ze left when he was done talking.
Only Xur Hai-Sheng remained with terror in his eyes.
He stood in a daze as a tsunami flooded his heart.
He couldn't imagine how powerful Ye Fan really was.
Amid the Xur family's unrest, the Lu family didn't enjoy a moment of peace either.
Although the Lu residence was brightly lit at night, Lu Cang-Qiong sat alone in his room with his doors closed and forbade anyone from entering.
Lu Cang-Qiong had already come back from Jiangdong for several hours.
After he returned, he didn't say a word. Hence, no one knew what happened in Jiangdong.
The head of the Lu family, Lu He, hurried back at top speed.
"You're back! Hurry up and go see Dad. I don't know what came over him. He hasn't said a word, eaten a morsel, or let us go in. Also, he looks awfully pale. Do you think he's sick?"
The members of the Lu family encircled Lu He when he arrived and Lu He's wife anxiously told Lu He about his father's condition.
But the moment she finished speaking, Lu He slapped the woman on the face.
Lu He slapped her so hard that she covered her face and lay prone on the ground with blood oozing from the corners of her lips.
"He!"
"What are you doing?"
Everyone rushed forward instantly in shock to stop him.
"Get lost. I am going to beat this stupid woman to death!”
Lu He was furious. After shouting at the others, he stepped forward to kick the woman.
