Facing the enraged Yan Zhen, the twenty Chu Family elites were so frightened that they lay on the ground, not daring to breathe heavily.
"You! Tell me, what on earth happened? Why did Chen'er end up like this?" Yan Zhen pointed at the foremost elite and said.
The elite shuddered all over and had no choice but to recount what had happened in the conference room earlier. He fearfully added, "In the end, Jiang Feng boasted arrogantly that it was he who disabled the young master, and if the Yan Family had any objections, they should come to him—he's ready anytime..."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zhen nearly passed out in anger!
This was outrageously arrogant!
Disabling someone and still daring to utter harsh words—is there anyone more conceited in the world?
Moreover, Jiang Feng disabling Yan Chen was not even the worst outcome!
The worst outcome was that Yan Chen was Yan Zhen's only son! In Yan Zhen's lineage, he was the sole heir, being groomed as the successor.
But now, with Yan Chen disabled by Jiang Feng, it also meant that Yan Zhen's own status was under threat!
After all, a contemporary family head without an heir cannot convince the masses, and Yan Zhen's ambitious brothers have been coveting his position for years!
"Call the police! Yan Zhen, let's call the police! That Jiang fellow is so rampant; he disabled Chen'er in public. Surely the authorities won't condone this, right? Just call a few friends within the authorities to catch that Jiang fellow and let him taste some lead!" Li Honglan roared at Yan Zhen like a furious lioness.
"Madam, no... we can't call the police..." the elite kneeling on the ground said.
"Why?" Li Honglan asked angrily.
"Because... if we call the police, the young master is done for too! At that time in the conference room, it was the young master who committed murder first. He instructed Tributor Zhong to kill a security chief under Zhu Ge Yuheng of the Chu Family and even threw him downstairs in public..." the elite shuddered as he spoke.
"This brute! Does he ever use his brain?" Yan Zhen glared at Yan Chen hatefully, like steel that cannot be molded into iron.
"Look at our son, and you're still saying such things?" Li Honglan rebuked her husband and anxiously squatted down, looking at the barely breathing Yan Chen, and asked, "Son, how are you? Can you hear what mom's saying?"
Immediately, Li Honglan turned her head and shouted angrily, "Where are the doctors? Why aren't they here yet? Do they not want to continue their jobs?"
Yan Chen was so severely injured that the reason the twenty Yan Family elites hadn't sent him to the hospital immediately was that the Yan Family had their own specialized doctors who were no less skilled than those at the city's major hospitals.
With Li Honglan's words, several doctors rushed in from outside the villa, first gestured to Yan Zhen and Li Honglan, then hurriedly squatted down to tend to Yan Chen's injuries, initiating emergency treatment!
"Mom... don't save me... let them... kill me... I don't want... to suffer anymore..." Yan Chen said weakly. He was in so much pain that even being roasted alive would be preferable to this agony.
"Silly child, what nonsense are you saying? Life is precious no matter how difficult it is. You will be fine, be strong!" Li Honglan quickly comforted her son.
Yan Zhen watched this scene unfold from the side, feeling even more infuriated, with his blood pressure rising!
On one hand, he hated his son's incompetence and recklessness. On the other hand, he felt sorry for his son, as he was his beloved child after all!
"Damn Jiang Zazhong, I, Yan, swear to the heavens I won't let him off!"
Gritting his teeth, Yan Zhen turned to the man standing behind him and said, "Brother Mo, if you strike to kill that bastard, how confident are you?"
The man named Mo was silent for a moment and said, "Hard to say. That kid's strength is a bit unpredictable. Junior Brother Zhong's strength was about the same as mine, yet he died at that kid's hands. This is quite baffling. I'm afraid only Senior Brother and the two Masters leaving seclusion can guarantee a sure win!"
Hearing this, Yan Zhen became even more frustrated, realizing it meant he couldn't immediately avenge his son?
"When will Brother Guan and the two elders come out of seclusion?" Yan Zhen asked unwillingly.
"At least a week! Master mentioned before going into seclusion this time that when Senior Brother comes out, his strength will improve by leaps and bounds, and it's not impossible for him to reach the level of a Middle Stage Maestro. He is the most extraordinarily talented martial artist Binhai has seen in decades!" Mo Chong spoke with immense pride when mentioning his admired Senior Brother!
Zhong Qing, Mo Chong, and Guan Hao were three senior brothers, and they were also the three mainforce fighters of the Yan Family!
Their masters were the two oldest tributes of the Yan Family and ranked first and second in the Binhai combat power rankings!
It was precisely these two elderly tributes who, in their early years, swore brotherhood with Yan Jiu and helped him establish his power!
Their three disciples, namely Zhong Qing and others, inherited their legacy, now also serving as tributes for the Yan Family, responsible for protecting the family head and serving as the martial power.
Now, the third, Zhong Qing, had died tragically at Jiang Feng's hands. The eldest, Guan Hao, was in seclusion, leaving only the second, Mo Chong, with mediocre strength, to provide advice to Yan Zhen.
Unfortunately, Yan Zhen did not care about how far Guan Hao's martial realm might reach after he exited seclusion. His current thoughts revolved around avenging his son and consolidating his position as family head!
"Brother Zhen, I have an idea."
Mo Chong, seeing Yan Zhen's furious demeanor, said, "This time, since Junior Brother Zhong was defeated by Jiang Feng, and Chen'er was severely disabled as a result, it's very unfavorable for the Yan Family to reemerge after lying low for years. People in the city might belittle the Yan Family because of this, or even question its strength, posing an obstacle to the Yan Family's upcoming plan to unify Binhai!"
Yan Zhen nodded. This was exactly what worried him. If the Yan Family's prestige suffered due to his son, and they couldn't complete the grand unification plan, internal family members would surely rise against him, forcing him to abdicate sooner or later!
"What good ideas do you have, Brother Mo?" Yan Zhen hurriedly asked.
"Senior Brother will emerge from seclusion in seven days. It's uncertain whether he will reach the Middle Stage Maestro by then, but even if not, he'll be close to it. With such strength, he will surely defeat Jiang with one strike!"
"Given this, why not arrange a death match with Jiang Feng? We'll hold it at the Yan Family's underground Death Battle Arena, fair and public. Let Senior Brother fight Jiang one-on-one, and in the end, easily eliminate Jiang. This will shut everyone up and let the entire Binhai know that the Yan Family is still untouchable and inviolable!"
Yan Zhen pondered for a moment after hearing this, furrowing his brows, "The idea is good, but will that Jiang bastard agree? What if he's afraid to fight knowing it's a death match?"
"No need to worry about that."
Mo Chong smiled and said, "Firstly, if he doesn't fight, it's as if he admits defeat and doesn't dare to face the Yan Family directly, letting everyone in the city know he's afraid of the Yan Family!"
"Secondly, I suspect he will definitely accept the challenge! Because this essentially gives him an opportunity to deliver himself to death. Otherwise, considering he dared to disable Chen'er, our relentless revenge on him will eventually involve those around him, whether family or friends! I've heard he's a person who values loyalty and wouldn't want such things to happen!"
"Makes sense, Brother Mo's analysis is thorough, enlightening the ignorant!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Chen suddenly felt enlightened and sighed, "If so, then in my name, issue a death match invitation to Jian Feng! Seven days from now, Brother Guan will have a death match with him! In these seven days, let's spread the word, make some noise, so everyone in the city knows that the Yan Family's dignity isn't to be challenged, and whoever offends the Yan Family shall be exterminated!!"
