Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“You think you can get away by casually fabricating an identity after offending our Chu Family?” Chu Xiong, who was in a fit of anger, simply ignored what Lu Yu said and berated him with malicious fury.

Lu Yu appeared indifferent and shrugged his shoulders. Extending his hands outward, he said, “I am here. If you want to capture me, then go ahead. But you should still send some greetings in advance, in case you regret it later.”

Seeing Lu Yu’s calm and relaxed appearance, Chu Cheng, who was still a bit skeptical, suddenly realized something and he carefully sized up Lu Yu.

Just then, Zheng Xiaochuan walked over. His voice rang out even before he appeared. “Senior Chu Cheng, I never thought we would meet in this way in this place.”

Chu Cheng turned his head upon hearing his voice. The moment he saw Zheng

Xiaochuan. he got a big shock- When he saw how Zheng Xiaochuan seemed to he

on familiar terms with Lu Yu, his look of suspicion diminished a fair bit.

As a direct descendant of the Chu family and part of the older generation, it was not surprising that he had met Zheng Xiaochuan before.

Zheng Xiaochuan continued, with a sullen look on his face, “Senior Chu Cheng, my friend and I came to your restaurant to have a meal. First, people tried to assassinate us. Then we were treated like this by you. I am afraid that I can’t let it pass if you don’t give me a reasonable explanation.”

Hearing Zheng Xiaochuan address Lu Yu as his friend, Chu Cheng’s face suddenly sank. Anyone who could be friends with Zheng Xiaochuan must hail from some remarkable background. Therefore, Lu Yu’s identity should be real.

Moreover, according to his understanding on the way here, this guy Lu Yu’s family was also in the hotel. It was a heart-warming family reunion, but they invited Zheng Xiaochuan. This meant theirs was not an ordinary friendship.

Chu Xiong became speechless. Never in his wildest dream did he imagine that this person beside Lu Yu was actually the Young Master of the Zheng family, the future successor of the empire of Zheng’s Bank. He became extremely terrified and stammered, “Uncle Cheng, I..

“You shut up!” Like an enraged lion, Chu Cheng roared at Chu Xiong.

He was caught in a real bind now. Among the so-called troublemakers on the Chu family’s territory, one was a Count, the other was the Young Master of the Zheng family. Both were characters they should not have offended.

After his expression changed several times, Chu Cheng suddenly said with an apologetic smile, “Gentlemen, may I know what kind of explanation would you like to hear?”

Lu Yu gave a scornful laugh inwardly. Judging by the tone of this guy, he intended to hush up this matter. Since he wanted to hush it up, everything was open for negotiation.

“On my side, I need 10 tons of spiritual energy ore, 30 A-class weapons, and 3 S-class weapons.” Lu Yu closed his eyes in contemplation and slowly extended his fingers as he counted.

“What? Why don’t you simply rob them?” A clan member of the Chu Family stared at him and shouted.

Chu Cheng’s face darkened further. This guy’s avarice simply knew no bounds. Putting aside the 10 tons of spiritual energy ore and 30 A-class weapons, the 3 S-class weapons were extremely important war assets for a powerful family.

Furthermore, this guy Lu Yu had already looted the treasure vault completely, yet he was still not satisfied. He still wanted to get more benefits.

Chu Cheng gritted his teeth and said with a malicious glint in his eyes, “And if I don’t agree to your request?”

Lu Yu laughed and simply said, “Then I will stay here and not leave.”

At the same time, Lu Yu withdrew the Illusionary Realm Kingdom because he sensed that Zheng Dalong, who had been watching from the shadows all this while, was entering the premises at this moment. As expected, a member of the Chu family ran in shortly in a groveling manner and whispered in Chu Cheng’s ear.

Chu Cheng’s face froze. He glanced at Zheng Xiaochuan and said in shock,

“How come even that guy is here?”

“Hehe…” Before he appeared, his laughter had reached everyone’s ears. Zheng Dalong, with his clansmen of the Zheng family in tow, arrived at the Chu family’s hotel. The pressure of a War General spread out, causing Chu Cheng’s face to be filled with trepidation.

This guy Zheng Dalong was not only the younger brother of the current patriarch of the Zheng family, Zheng Dayou, but he was also a powerful expert at the War General level. Whether in terms of status or strength, he was far above Chu Cheng. This was also the reason Chu Cheng was so apprehensive.

“Chu Cheng, so you are here as well.” Zheng Dalong first pretended to look surprised and glanced at Chu Cheng. Then he put on a stern face with a majestic look. “Chu Cheng, do you realize your fault?”

“I wonder what fault are you referring to, Senior Zheng?” Chu Cheng cupped his hands and asked stiffly.

“Oh, what fault, is it? The Younq Master of our Zheng family, the future head of the family, was in your Chu family’s hotel to catch up with a friend, but nearly suffered an unwarranted calamity.” Zheng Dalong’s voice was stern as he roared fiercely. “Our Zheng family’s Young Master almost lost his life here, and you ask what is your fault?”

Cold sweat immediately broke out on Chu Cheng’s forehead. If this matter blew up, he would not be able to bear the consequences. In fact, if the Zheng family asked for accountability, the Chu family might very well abandon him.

When he saw Zheng Dalong, Zheng Xiaochuan was pleasantly surprised. Like a child complaining to an elder, he blurted out, “Uncle Dalong, fortunately you came in time. If you had been here a little later, you would have only seen your nephew’s corpse.”

“You have no idea what happened to me in this hotel. I was inexplicably embroiled in an attack.”

“I have already identified myself, yet these people still refused to…”

It had to be said that Zheng Xiaochuan was really skillful at playing the victim. With an anguished account, coupled with exaggerated hand and leg gestures, he gave such a vivid re-enactment that it gave people the impression that they were experiencing the incident in person.

Dammit! When he heard this, Chu Xiong was cursing and swearing in his heart, wondering why his subordinates were so incompetent.

Not only did they fail to take advantage of the situation, they also suffered losses. On top of that, they got into a whole load of trouble. He immediately dropped down on his knees with a thud, kowtowing furiously. “Senior… Senior Zheng, I really was unaware of all these things.”

Zheng Dalong gave a scornful smirk and said, “You are the owner of this hotel. Do you think I will believe you if you say you don’t know?”

Chu Xiong tried to defend himself. “I… I really did not know. It was a stupid thing done by all those guys who are secretly lining their pockets.”

“Enough!” Chu Cheng simply could not take it any longer. To prevent this fool from saying even more self-incriminating things, Chu Cheng slapped him directly on the face. Half of Chu Xiong’s face instantly swelled up hideously.

At this moment, Chu Xiong was feeling extremely aggrieved. He had cooperated with the Southern Seas Hotel this time just to kill Lu Yu, but he did not expect Zheng Xiaochuan to get implicated. Instead of getting credit for this, he got egg on his face, and he had no way to explain himself. In the end, Zheng Dalong tossed out this query. How did he intend to resolve this matter?

Chu Cheng was feeling very annoyed inwardly. The price to solve this matter would inevitably be painfully high, just like cutting off a chunk of flesh from his own body. If the Chu family found out as well, he would not be able to avoid a stern reprimand. Thinking of this, he kicked Chu Xiong viciously again.

Thereafter, he forced himself to put on an apologetic smile and asked, “Senior

Zheng, how do you wish to resolve this then?”

Zheng Dalong extended one finger. “It’s easy. I just want this amount of spiritual energy ore.”

Chu Cheng finally felt a little relieved inwardly. Whether it was one ton or ten tons of spiritual energy ore, it was still within what he could bear, though it was still a painful settlement..
