Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 181: Chapter 180: [This Woman is Very Beautiful]

The man in the silver suit, with an entourage that was anything but small, had eight bodyguards in black suits standing behind him like javelins. Each of their gazes were filled with murderous intent, ready to strike at their master’s command. In the grand hall of the luxury club, many onlookers were speculating about the identity of the man in the silver suit.

Before the man in the silver suit stood eighteen tall and sweet-faced women, each seductively dressed in camisoles and stockings, uniform in their attire, awaiting his selection. Whomever he chose would have the privilege of serving him that night. These eighteen women, in both their aura and appearance, could be considered noble, perhaps even escorts, but they were not the kind for whom money alone could buy their company, for they had the power to drive men to ecstatic desperation.

”Leave that one, the rest may go,” said the man in the silver suit, lounging on the sofa with a celebrity’s ease.

The homogenously beautiful escorts, upon hearing his instruction, all but the chosen one withdrew, leaving the onlookers in the hall taken aback and filled with amazement.

This luxury club was a gathering place for many distinguished guests; none who frequented here were without status. Yet no one had ever shown the audacity of the man in the silver suit, bringing together eighteen of the club’s top escorts to choose from. It spoke volumes of his influence.

”Who is this guy?”

”To be able to summon eighteen top escorts to the hall for his choosing, to command them as he pleases—I’ve never seen anyone like him.”

”So many dignitaries come and go, but none have the boldness of this young man. He’s really stealing the spotlight.”

”He loves the attention too much; he’ll get taught a lesson sooner or later...”

”Shh... do you even know who he is?”

”Who is it? No matter how arrogant, nobody dares to cause trouble here. Remember this club has high-ranking officials as shareholders; to make trouble is to sign one’s own death warrant...”

”He’s Xuanyuan Teng...”

”What... Xuanyuan, Xuanyuan Teng...”

The murmurs spread among the crowd. Some had felt displeased, as most of those mingling here had their own status and connections. Seeing Xuanyuan Teng’s showy display with the eighteen top escorts available for his picking was irritating, especially considering these escorts were not easy conquests. Many men coveted them, but Xuanyuan Teng seemed able to have his pick of them, stirring resentment.

Indeed, the man in the silver suit was Xuanyuan Teng. After wrapping up his family’s affairs, he naturally wanted to enjoy himself. As a young man endowed with wealth, lust, and power, indulging in such pleasures was hard to resist.

Learning that his younger brother, Xuanyuan Yu, had been beaten at the entrance of Longteng University, Xuanyuan Teng was enraged. Being one of the ’Three Young Masters of Longteng,’ he was one of the most untouchable figures on campus, where almost no one dare provoke him. Anyone who had crossed Xuanyuan Teng had met with death. And now, with him just having left Capital City, someone had dared to attack his brother—an outright dismissal of Xuanyuan Teng’s authority.

Xuanyuan Teng intended to rush back to Capital City on a private jet to kill Ye Tianchen that very night, but he had delayed his return to deal with some matters, fearing he couldn’t make it back in time. Always domineering, Xuanyuan Teng had never suffered any loss or humiliation. He dispatched Ah Hu with orders to kill Ye Tianchen, warning him that failure would mean his own death, thus the immense pressure on Ah Hu to lead a gang of over three hundred men wielding machetes.

Xuanyuan Teng, being one of the ’Three Young Masters of Longteng’ at Longteng University and the esteemed heir of the Xuanyuan family—a Hidden Family—was well aware of Ye Tianchen’s reputation. Although surprised, he nonetheless dismissed Ye Tianchen with contempt. There were two reasons: first, the Ye family was widely known to have fallen from its former glory, rendering their power incomparable to the Xuanyuan family. Put bluntly, Ye Tianchen had no powerful backing to shield him should he cause a severe incident; second, Xuanyuan Teng was arrogantly confident in his superiority over Ye Tianchen, believing that should he, Young Master Xuanyuan, become irate, even ten Ye Tianchens would perish.

With these reasons in mind, Xuanyuan Teng was not in a rush. Though he sent his top henchman, Ah Hu, he believed that even Ah Hu taking action was an acknowledgment of Ye Tianchen, who was destined to die.

At that moment, Xuanyuan Teng selected the most central escort, drawn by her voluptuous curves, exactly his preferred type. Hearing the surrounding murmurs, Xuanyuan Teng’s lips curled into a cold smirk. He turned to look at the man who had said he was ”courting death” and spoke indifferently, ”You dare to gossip about me, Xuanyuan Teng. Do you have enough lives to gamble?”

”You...” The man who had bad-mouthed Xuanyuan Teng was stunned, a spark of anger ignited within him, thinking that Xuanyuan Teng was too domineering. His group frequented the same circles, so to suggest they lacked any real strength was out of the question, but he hadn’t expected Xuanyuan Teng’s arrogance to reach such an extent. It was just a quiet remark from the side without mentioning names, and yet Xuanyuan Teng became wildly arrogant about it.

Not only the man who had spoken the unsatisfactory remark felt threatened by Xuanyuan Teng and extremely uneasy, but even the others at the scene also thought Xuanyuan Teng was way too arrogant. They had seen overbearing figures before, but never to this level. No one had said anything; they were simply discussing out of curiosity. They hadn’t spoken ill of Xuanyuan Teng; at most, they hadn’t taken his side, and yet, he was shouting about fighting and killing, truly domineering to the extreme.

”Kill him!”

The next moment, Xuanyuan Teng uttered even more arrogant words. Just for a single remark, a comment that soured his mood, he demanded a killing, wanting the man who wasn’t shocked by knowledge of Xuanyuan Teng’s renown dead.

”You... Xuanyuan Teng, even if your Xuanyuan family is a Hidden Family, I’m also a man of status. If you dare kill me, you won’t meet a good end either...” The man was startled, yet he spoke firm words, truly believing in his own influence and that Xuanyuan Teng wouldn’t dare to kill him so recklessly.

With a ”Pfft” sound, everyone present was dumbfounded, gasping in shock. The man’s words had not yet settled when a dagger slit his throat, blood gushing forth. The man covered his neck with both hands, already feeling unable to breathe, his eyes filled with terror. Just because of one sentence—a single sentence—he was killed by Xuanyuan Teng.

In today’s peaceful world, where speech was free for all, Xuanyuan Teng’s actions were a blatant message: don’t even think about laying a hand on me, Xuanyuan Teng, or even speak half a bad word against me. If you do, Laozi will kill you—his arrogance knew no bounds.

Thud!

The man who hadn’t sided with Xuanyuan Teng in his words lay in a pool of blood, causing others at the scene to hastily retreat several steps, not daring to even breathe too loudly, afraid of provoking Xuanyuan Teng. This heir of a Hidden Family was unquestionably wilful and insolent, killing without hesitation.

”Hmph, I, Xuanyuan Teng, haven’t moved around for a while, and it seems many have forgotten me. I’ll make everyone remember, I, Xuanyuan Teng, as one of the top three heirs of Longteng University, am not someone just anyone can provoke!” Xuanyuan Teng took a drag from his cigar, snorting coldly.

No one dared to speak or respond. The man in the pool of blood was a stark warning. Who would dare open their mouth so easily? Did they have a death wish? The key point was that Xuanyuan Teng seemed like a madman and indeed appeared unprovokable.

After Xuanyuan Teng spoke, a sinister smile formed at the corner of his mouth, and he scanned over everyone present. He continued in a disdainful tone, ”Although I’m not in the Capital City, I’ve heard that upon my departure, someone tried to challenge me. His name is Ye Tianchen. Perhaps some of you have heard of him, but let me tell you, after tonight, you will no longer hear the name Ye Tianchen—he’s dead!”

”What? Ye Tianchen?”

”Isn’t that guy the laughing stock of the entire Capital City? How did he offend Young Master Xuanyuan?”

”You don’t know the half of it. Since Ye Tianchen returned to the Capital City, everything he’s done has been astonishing. It’s said that the decline of the Qin family and the Luo family overnight is connected to him.”

”I didn’t expect Ye Tianchen to provoke Young Master Xuanyuan. It seems he’s definitely done for!”

”Maybe you still don’t know, but I heard Ye Tianchen beat up Xuanyuan Teng’s younger brother, Xuanyuan Yu, right at the gates of Longteng University. That’s why Xuanyuan Teng wants to kill Ye Tianchen.”

”No way, does Ye Tianchen have no brain? Forget the fact that Xuanyuan Yu is Xuanyuan Teng’s brother, to dare provoke a member of a Hidden Family, he’s truly asking for death!”

Among these people, some had heard news from the Capital City and knew about Ye Tianchen’s change, but had not expected that Xuanyuan Teng, even being so far away, would also have a feud with Ye Tianchen. Many sided with Xuanyuan Teng, convinced that Ye Tianchen was done for and no match for Xuanyuan Teng.

”Good to know. Now get lost, all of you, and don’t ruin this young master’s mood!” Xuanyuan Teng said indifferently. (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendation tickets, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
