Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1407: Chapter 1406: Fall Out Over a Disagreement

7:30 in the evening, Zilan Manor in the north of Capital City.

This is the largest manor in Capital City, but its business is not doing well.

Zilan Manor is located in a rather remote area, and moreover, due to opening early and poor management, its revenue is insufficient, making its decor outdated. On ordinary days, only some wealthy businessmen from Capital City frequent this place, while the big shots from the prestigious families seldom come here.

But tonight, Zilan Manor is best described as bustling with noise and excitement.

Before six o’clock, the entrance of Zilan Manor was already filled with parked vehicles.

And by 7:30, the road from Zilan Manor to the foot of the mountain was packed with a long line of cars.

Not many vehicles could enter Zilan Manor; most of them had to stay outside. Of course, not many individuals could enter Zilan Manor either, apart from the Family Heads of the great clans and the leaders of major forces, other people basically had no qualification to enter Zilan Manor.

Su Yang did not come ahead of time. Zhao Hu Zi and others from the Han Family, Shi Family, and Tang Family were responsible for welcoming guests.

The scene inside was a cacophony of voices, with many people making a commotion.

The largest conference hall in Zilan Manor is now occupied by more than three hundred people. And these three hundred are all the Family Heads of the big families of Capital City and the leaders of the major forces.

The conference hall is where the noise is loudest, with everyone shouting loudly, scolding Su Yang for not coming.

Presiding over the situation here was none other than Zhao Hu Zi, with the Family Heads of the Han Family, Shi Family, and Tang Family assisting behind him.

Seeing the situation, the faces of the three Family Heads turned somewhat pale.

Seizing the opportunity, Patriarch Han quietly pulled Zhao Hu Zi aside and whispered, ”Brother Zhao, there’s something off about these people!”

”What’s wrong?” Zhao Hu Zi asked in surprise.

”Last night’s battle made Master Su famous all over the world, and within Capital City, there should be no one who dares to oppose Master Su anymore!” Patriarch Han whispered, ”Logically speaking, these people should all be behaving themselves after coming here, not daring to say a word too much. Yet now, they are so brazen and arrogant, blaming Master Su for not being here, it’s too abnormal!”

Zhao Hu Zi was also stunned, and the words of Patriarch Han made him more alert.

”Do you mean these people are problematic?” Zhao Hu Zi whispered back.

”I suspect that these people had secret conspiracies before this.” Patriarch Han whispered, ”After all, most of the families and powers here have grievances with Master Su. If they were to unite, Master Su’s strength, no matter how formidable, wouldn’t be a match for them. With Master Su summoning them so assertively tonight, they all know nothing good will come of it. They might very well unite against us!”

This made Zhao Hu Zi vigilant, and he nodded repeatedly, whispering, ”You make sense; I’d better contact Master Su right away!”

Zhao Hu Zi hurried away before finding a place to contact Su Yang, only to see Su Yang walking towards him.

”Master Su!” Zhao Hu Zi hurriedly went to greet him, recounting the situation inside, and then expressed his concern, ”Master Su, I’m afraid these people really have banded together. Should we... should we change our plans?”

”Why should we change?” Su Yang asked with a faint smile, walking straight towards the conference room: ”Even if they’ve united, what can they do?”

”Ah?” Zhao Hu Zi was dumbfounded. Was Su Yang this confident? Now it was virtually all of Capital City’s powerful families and forces united together, and Su Yang wasn’t the least bit afraid?

Although puzzled, Zhao Hu Zi still followed Su Yang into the conference room, trusting him completely. Since Su Yang wasn’t worried, it meant he definitely had a plan.

People inside the conference room were shouting loudly, but when they saw Su Yang enter, they immediately fell silent. Everyone’s gaze was fixated on Su Yang, and each face was filled with hostility.

”Sorry for the delay, got stuck in traffic, thank you all for waiting!” Su Yang said with a faint smile, a disingenuous excuse. With Su Yang’s abilities, could a traffic jam really hinder him? He could’ve simply flown over, much faster than driving.

”Master Su must indeed be a very busy man, calling all the family heads and leaders of major forces of Capital City here and yet being late for such a long time!” A man sitting in the front spoke sarcastically: ”It’s okay, Master Su, we are all insignificant people, it’s only right for us to wait here for you. Why don’t you go down and rest for a bit, let us wait another three to five hours, and you can come over then?”

Su Yang glanced at the man, smiling, ”I’ve yet to ask for the name of this brother...”

”No need for courtesies, my name is Jiang Shiping!” the man cut in directly: ”The Jiang Shixiong you killed last night, he was my brother!”

Su Yang remembered now, among the people who went to the Han Family Courtyard last night, indeed there was a Jiang Shixiong, who was the Family Head of the Jiang Family.

”So that means, you are now the new Family Head of the Jiang Family?” Su Yang asked.

”Hmph, our family head was killed by you, what family head can there be?” Jiang Shiping replied, his tone filled with endless hatred.

”Fair enough!” Su Yang slowly nodded, and then suddenly looked up, instantly moving in front of Jiang Shiping. Before everyone could react, he had already grabbed Jiang Shiping by the neck and strangled him to death on the spot!

The crowd was in an uproar, no one expecting Su Yang to start killing without a word of disagreement. Instantly, over a hundred people stood up, shouting, ”Su, what are you doing?”

Zhao Hu Zi and others changed color as this group of a hundred represented a hundred different family forces. If a dispute broke out, they would have no chance at all.

Su Yang didn’t even look at these people, took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off his hands, and then leisurely said, ”I’ve said before that only the family heads of the great clans, the leaders of the major powers, and the seventh and eighth young masters of the Zhang Family may enter this conference room. No one else may. What right does Jiang Shiping have to be here? Is there a place for him here? Since he can’t find his own seat, he might as well be dead, right, everyone?”

The crowd exchanged looks, clearly understanding that Su Yang was making an example of him.

Then a middle-aged man in the front spoke coldly, ”Master Su’s way of doing things is truly domineering. You resort to killing at the slightest disagreement. But do you truly believe that you are the one to set the rules of this world? That everyone is like ants, at your whim to kill or spare?”

Seeing this middle-aged man speaking, everyone turned to look, indicating the high status of this person.

”May I ask for your name?” Su Yang asked with a smile.

”Oh, would you like to kill me too?” The middle-aged man sneered.
