Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 182: Chapter 182 Audio Tape

Upon entering the city, Su Yang didn’t rush to find the Xue Family, instead, he found a hotel in the city and checked in.

In the afternoon, Su Yang called a courier and had him deliver two bags to different locations.

At seven-thirty in the evening, after dinner, Su Yang didn’t go out but went straight back to the hotel.

Upon entering his room, Su Yang casually sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control to turn on the TV, and then slowly said, ”Since you’re here, come out and have a seat. Isn’t it stifling in there?”

The door of the inner room opened, and Xueshou Du Xinyu came out with a grim face.

”Just you?” Su Yang asked with a faint smile.

Du Xinyu’s face was icy as he said in a deep voice, ”Su Yang, when did you start eavesdropping on my phone calls?”

”Not for long,” said Su Yang. ”I started listening in when you began making the call.”

”How did you do it?” Du Xinyu asked with a serious tone. ”Did you put a bug in my car? Impossible, I checked the car when I got back, and there was no sign of tampering!”

”I didn’t bug your car, I bugged you,” Su Yang said with a light smile. ”You forgot, before you got in the car, I patted you on the shoulder!”

”What?” Du Xinyu’s expression changed and then he immediately shook his head. ”Impossible, you just patted my shoulder. If you really put something on me, I would have known. Over the years, I’ve been particularly wary of that. How could you possibly get the better of me?”

”Really?” Su Yang said with a light smile. ”What if your senses aren’t as sharp anymore?”

”What do you mean?” Du Xinyu asked.

”Do you know that there are some acupoints on the human body that, once sealed by a force, can significantly reduce bodily sensations?” Su Yang explained while patting Du Xinyu on the body, smiling, ”You can try it.”

”Try... try what?” Du Xinyu’s expression changed dramatically.

”For instance, hitting yourself,” said Su Yang with a smile. ”Don’t worry, it won’t hurt.”

Filled with doubt yet still, Du Xinyu pinched himself hard. And that was precisely where the magic lay—he felt no sensation in his body whatsoever.

”How... how is this possible?” Du Xinyu asked, astonished.

”I’ve sealed your acupoints, so you can’t feel it yourself. But your own perception has also weakened to an extreme,” Su Yang explained. ”Forget pinching yourself, even if someone stabbed you with a knife, you wouldn’t feel a thing!”

Du Xinyu was dumbfounded; he had never expected that Su Yang could do such a thing.

Taking a deep breath, Du Xinyu said solemnly, ”Su Yang, regarding this matter, our boss said we aren’t getting involved anymore!”

”Even if you don’t get involved, I still plan to extinguish the Xue Family...” Su Yang said with a faint smile. ”When that happens, you’ll still end up swallowing the Xue Family’s property, and I’ll still become the culprit who destroyed the Xue Family. Tsk tsk, your involvement or lack thereof hardly makes a difference, does it?”

Du Xinyu said in a deep voice, ”So what do you want to do?”

”It’s simple. We all make a move together!” Su Yang said with a laugh. ”You want the Xue Family’s property, and I want to kill the Xue Family’s people. So, how about this: you join me in wiping out the Xue Family. If anything happens, we all take the fall together—we’ll be in the same boat, which is more fitting, don’t you think?”

”Su Yang, you want us to go against the Xue Family?” Du Xinyu said with a deep voice: ”That’s impossible. The most our boss will do is stay out of it. If you press us too hard, hmm, we might just help the Xue Family against you!”

”Heh, you might help the Xue Family, but that also depends on whether the Xue Family agrees,” Su Yang said with a light smile. ”To be honest, I sent a copy of that tape to the Xue Family as well. By now, the people from the Xue Family should have finished listening to the recording!”

”What?” Du Xinyu’s expression changed drastically as he said angrily, ”Su Yang, how could you... How could you send that tape to the Xue Family? Don’t you realize... Doing that leaves us no way out!”

”It’s you who have no way out, not me,” Su Yang said with a smile. ”So now, you only have two choices. First, take out the Xue Family before they unite with the other Nine Great Families, and completely resolve this issue in secrecy, so nobody knows.”

Grinding his teeth, Du Xinyu realized that would be a life-threatening move.

”Or second...” Su Yang said with a light smile, ”you could just stand by and leave me to settle my grudge with the Xue Family. If the entire Xue Family dies at my hands, then it’s none of your business. After that, you won’t have to live in fear anymore!”

”That’s ridiculous!” Du Xinyu exclaimed angrily. ”Even if you take down the Xue Family, if the word gets out, the other Nine Great Families won’t let us off the hook. Su Yang, you’re essentially forcing us to go against the Xue Family!”

”Really?” Su Yang said with a smile. ”I’m forcing you to confront the Xue Family, but are the things you’re doing really that honorable? Using the guise of the Xue Family to kill Hou Shilin—aren’t you trying to create an irreparable rift between the Xue Family and the Hou Family?”

”Speaking of which, I’m a member of the Qingyun Association. It’s only right for me to act against the Xue Family. But it’s different for you. You have no connection to the affair, yet you’ve been scheming behind the scenes. That’s the real disgrace!”

Du Xinyu’s expression turned very ugly; he knew that everything Su Yang was saying was true. If this blew up, Su Yang wouldn’t be in much trouble, since he was tied with the Hou Family. But it would be problematic for them. They had no involvement, but had been deceitful, and it would certainly attract disfavor from the Nine Great Families!

”How about it? Will you help me or not?” Su Yang asked with a smile.

Taking a deep breath, Du Xinyu said solemnly, ”I need to ask our big brother about this matter!”

”No problem!” Su Yang replied, nodding with a smile.

Du Xinyu opened the door and walked straight out.

Su Yang, standing by the window, watched as Du Xinyu headed to the parking lot at the back. He then jumped straight out of the window.

Moving quietly behind Du Xinyu, Su Yang struck him with his palm, knocking Du Xinyu out cold on the spot.

Su Yang pierced several silver needles into Du Xinyu’s body. Du Xinyu slowly stood up. There appeared to be nothing unusual about him, but his eyes were fixated strangely.

”All right, it’s your turn to perform now!” Su Yang said with a smile.

As if not seeing Su Yang, Du Xinyu drove away from the area. Before long, he arrived outside a bar.

”Brother Yu, you’re here!” A few hooligans greeted him, nodding and bowing at the door.

Du Xinyu nodded slowly and said in a stern voice, ”Gather all the manpower you can, bring weapons, and follow me for a task!”

”What task?” Everyone was astonished.

Du Xinyu didn’t explain, simply entering the bar. The group looked at one another, then hurriedly scattered to summon their associates.
