Supreme Warrior in the City

”Oh, you’re not the young lady of the house, but rather the aunt. Will that do?” Chen Benhao was in a fluster, ”Aunt, can we please not make a fuss? We’re all on the same side here. What’s the point of this fighting?”

”Hmph!” Zi Nu said indignantly, ”He kills the innocent with no remorse at all, he’s nothing but a devil. How can such a person still be considered one of us?”

Chen Benhao turned to Su Yang, ”Look here, Old Su, I’m not criticizing you, but you have to be a bit more discerning with how you handle things in the future. These two guys, their crimes don’t deserve death!”

”What do you even understand!” Su Yang pointed at the two individuals, ”This older one specializes in forcing good women into prostitution. In these years, he has dragged down no less than a hundred women, and at least fifty of those were violated by him. Among them, more than twenty were married women, with at least ten families ruined by him. To my knowledge, there were three husbands who sought revenge on him, and all of them were beaten to death by his subordinates!”

Su Yang then pointed at the young man, ”His situation is slightly better, not as many victims, but while at school, he deceived at least thirty girls. Twenty-one of them aborted for him, and thirteen abandoned their studies, led astray by him into the night scene, with quite a few still working podiums. Three girls he deceived went on and took their own lives. Among them, one girl only had her elderly mother who sought justice everywhere, ultimately to be suppressed by his family’s power. She even got locked up in a mental institution by his people, where she ended her own life!”

Having said this, Su Yang looked at Zi Nu coldly, ”Now, you tell me, do they not deserve to die? Was I not justified in my actions? I was merciful in killing just the two of them. For the crimes they committed, I should have implicated their entire families!”

Zi Nu fell silent. After a while, she gritted her teeth, ”This... all this is just what you’re saying. How would I know if it’s true or false?”

”The Chen Family of the Capital has its ways of finding things out. Can’t you check these things for yourself?” Su Yang said coldly, ”Although I, Su Yang, am not a saint, I do understand the concept of justice. Indeed, I have killed many, but I have never unjustly killed anyone. That is the line I, Su Yang, do not cross!”

”Well said!” Chen Benhao clapped his hands excitedly, ”That’s how one should be. Having principles gives one the courage to act! Zi Nu, I absolutely trust Old Su’s character. If you don’t, I’ll have the Chen Family start looking into this matter right away!”

Zi Nu did not speak further. After all, were any of these scions of major clans truly clean? The details Su Yang had mentioned could not be fabricated. If one were to truly investigate, the deaths of those two would certainly not be unjustified.

”Alright, let’s not trouble ourselves with these matters anymore!” Chen Benhao put his arm around Su Yang’s shoulders, ”Come on, let’s change rooms and get something to eat. Oh, Su Yang, about Young Master Ding whose arm you broke, did that guy commit any crimes too?”

Su Yang replied, ”His crimes are less severe, only thirteen people were rendered homeless because of him, but fortunately, no one died. Breaking his arm is a form of lesson for him!”

”Brilliant!” Chen Benhao laughed heartily, ”Your way of doing things, I really like it. Next time something like this comes up, let me know, and I’ll join in. Let me be a part of it!”

Su Yang just smiled faintly, not saying a word. Chen Benhao looked at Zi Nu, ”Come on, no more pouting. Old Su did the right thing!”

Zi Nu’s face still showed dissatisfaction, but deep down, she was convinced, and any previous resentment she felt towards Su Yang dissolved completely.

During the meal, Su Yang and Chen Benhao polished off over a dozen bottles of alcohol. With their strength, getting drunk was difficult, but whether they got drunk or not was beside the point; they enjoyed the feeling of drinking together.

Finally, it was Su Yang who personally saw Chen Benhao off. As he was leaving, Chen Benhao whispered to Su Yang, ”Old Su, getting to know a friend like you is the greatest gain from this trip. As a brother, I have something to tell you.”

”Even though the Ye Family ultimately called off the marriage, it appears that it was you who forced me to back down. The Su Family will surely hold you responsible for this.”

”My distant cousin is no good and virtuous person. As one of the most promising individuals of the Su Family’s generation, he has always been arrogant and overbearing. Sending me back and calling off the marriage, he will not let you off. Once their family’s ascension event is over and these young people come out for their trials, I’m guessing he will head to Pingnan Province to find you first!”

”I know you are strong, but compared to the Su Family of Yanbei, you... you are seriously outmatched. My distant cousin reached the Venerable Realm by the age of fifteen and is said to have entered the Demi-God Realm now. Brother Su, you must be very careful!”

Su Yang nodded slowly, aware that with the formidable strength of the Su Family of Yanbei, Chen Benhao must be under not insignificant pressure to say such things to him. Regardless, this favor would be remembered.

”Take care!” Chen Benhao patted Su Yang’s shoulder, ”If you get the chance, come to the Capital City. I may not be the most popular there, but if you come, I will spare no effort to host you!”

”Hahaha...” Su Yang laughed, looking up, ”No worries. If your popularity in the Capital isn’t great, I’m quite liked in Pingnan. If you ever find yourself unable to stay in the Capital, come to Pingnan and hang out with me!”

”Get lost, you can’t spit anything good!” Chen Benhao chided with a smile, nodded at Su Yang, and then left in the car with Zi Nu at the wheel.

Su Yang watched Chen Benhao’s car disappear into the distance before letting out a deep sigh.

The things Chen Benhao had told him seemed not to matter on the surface, but deep down, Su Yang was pondering them seriously.

If Su Yang were a lone wolf, he would not fear the Su Family of Yanbei at all. If he couldn’t defeat them, he could always run away.

But the problem was, he now had too many ties. With a father, sister, elder sister, and so many brothers and friends, he truly couldn’t leave. So if Su Tianyu were to come over, he would have no choice but to fight it out.

The Demi-God Realm was a level that had not yet reached the Earthly Immortal Realm but had already surpassed the Venerable Realm.

Su Yang’s current strength was sufficient to contend with the Venerables, but against the Demi-God Realm, he was not strong enough.

It seemed that Su Yang had to improve his strength quickly. Otherwise, facing Su Tianyu would indeed put him in danger!

To increase his strength, the key was to have sufficient Spiritual Energy. In terms of power, Su Yang was not lacking; during Ghost Blade Mo Qianli’s death, he seized the opportunity to absorb most of his strength.

However, he still couldn’t utilize that power. His foundation had not yet reached the level needed to accommodate such strength.
