My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 268: Do You Think I’m Easy to Bully?
At that moment, a black Hongqi sedan pulled up near the Yang Residence. A man and a woman got out of the car.
Had Yang Qi seen them, he would have immediately recognized them as the War God King and his wife, Liu Lanxin.
"Looks like there’s trouble. Let’s check it out," the War God King said with a smile, blending into the crowd with his wife.
Meanwhile, Yang Qi was standing outside the entrance, confronting Fan Shengren.
Fan Shengren sneered, "I won’t stoop to your level, kid. But you’ve disgraced the Fan Family, so you will kowtow and apologize. Ten times, and make them loud. Do that, and I might consider letting you off the hook!"
"An old man with no martial arts training dares to stand so close to me?" Yang Qi retorted with a cold sneer. "You must have a death wish. You want to kneel so badly? Fine, I’ll grant your wish!"
With a sudden movement, Yang Qi reached out and pressed down on Fan Shengren’s shoulder.
THUD!
Fan Shengren’s body buckled, and he uncontrollably knelt on the ground. The onlookers were stunned. Fan Shengren himself was stunned.
It didn’t hurt, but the humiliation is immense. I, the wealthiest man in Kang City, was just forced to kneel before Yang Qi! I’ve lost all face!
"You! You dare to strike me!" Fan Shengren stared at Yang Qi in shock, taking a long moment to process what had happened. This is unbelievable. I was actually forced to kneel on the ground! This is intolerable!
"Kill him! Kill him for me!" Fan Shengren roared in fury. If he didn’t kill Yang Qi today, what would become of his reputation?
"Yes, sir!"
The Fan Family employed a large number of martial artists. Led by Hong Tu, they began to close in on Yang Qi, who watched them with an indifferent, almost disdainful expression.
"Kill!"
Finally, the several hundred men rushed toward Yang Qi with Hong Tu at their head. A terrifying aura erupted from them, forming a violent torrent. The powerful shockwave sent the onlookers stumbling; one could only imagine the force directed at Yang Qi, who bore the full brunt of the assault.
Yang Qi’s gaze remained contemptuous. Iron Heart prepared to intervene.
However, just then, a figure appeared in front of Yang Qi.
To be honest, I hadn’t even noticed when this figure appeared. It’s terrifying.
BOOM!
The man stood his ground, not moving an inch. Just by releasing his Powerful Energy, he sent all several hundred men flying. Hong Tu was no exception, landing hundreds of meters away. He stared in utter shock at the person standing there, his eyes nearly popping out of his head.
The man had clearly held back. Otherwise, we would all be dead.
It was the War God King!
Yang Qi was taken aback. I can’t believe the War God King was the one to step in. Judging by his Combat Power, his injuries must be almost fully recovered. A few more acupuncture sessions should be enough to heal him completely.
"The richest man in Kang City, how impressive," the War God King said coldly. "Gathering so many martial artists in broad daylight... what exactly were you planning? Do you have any regard for the law?"
Fan Shengren had already scrambled back to his feet. Staring at the War God King, he said coldly, "I don’t know who you are, but you’d best not meddle in the Fan Family’s affairs. In Kang City, the Fan Family *is* the law! If you’re willing, you can work for us. I guarantee you a life of luxury. Otherwise, scram and mind your own business. The consequences are more than you can handle!"
"Heh, it’s the first time anyone has dared to speak to me like that," the War God King chuckled. "I’d like to see who can do anything to me for meddling in this business."
It had been a long time since he had met someone so arrogant. While they were on the frontlines, bleeding and sacrificing their lives to defend the nation, these people were back here, bullying others and flaunting their power with complete disregard for the law. Although he was smiling, a deep-seated rage was boiling within him. It was simply unbearable.
"Fine! Since you’re courting death, I’ll grant your wish!" Fan Shengren roared. "Hong Tu, call your master! Tell him that I, Fan Shengren, will agree to any demand he makes, as long as he helps me kill this man!"
It was obvious he realized Hong Tu was no match for the man before him. He had to find someone stronger.
"That’s enough!"
Just then, Xu Tiancheng arrived. He was still in Kang City handling the Kang City Business Alliance case.
"Ah, Director Xu," Fan Shengren said. "If you have something to discuss, we can do it later. Wait until I’ve dealt with these two ignorant youths!"
"Are you insane? Do you have any idea who is standing in front of you?" Xu Tiancheng was seething. He leaned close to Fan Shengren and whispered, "That is the War God King you’ve been so desperate to suck up to!"
What!
The words struck Fan Shengren like lightning, and he nearly collapsed. Insane! This is completely insane! That middle-aged man, who looks to be in his forties, is the War God King! It’s all over! Recalling his earlier actions, Fan Shengren began to tremble uncontrollably as cold sweat poured down his forehead. I actually told him the Fan Family was the law in Kang City? My God! Am I trying to get myself killed? This is a disaster! A complete and utter disaster!
THUMP!
Terrified, Fan Shengren dropped to his knees. "Wa-Wa-War God King, sir! I-I was wrong! I was just blinded by anger. It was just a few thoughtless words; I didn’t mean anything by it!"
War God King! Hearing that name, Fan Ruobing, Hong Tu, and the others stared in disbelief before dropping to their knees in terror.
"We were wrong, we were confused! Please don’t misunderstand, we truly didn’t mean it!" the members of the Fan Family pleaded.
"The person you should be apologizing to isn’t me," the War God King said coldly. "It’s my friend, Mr. Yang. What were you trying to do, bringing so many people here this early in the morning?"
Friend! He called him a friend! Fan Shengren and the others were dumbstruck. The War God King himself had just called Yang Qi his friend. How can this be? How!
Fan Shengren turned to Yang Qi, his face a mask of embarrassment. "Mr. Yang, why didn’t you say so earlier? Had we known you were a friend of the War God King, we would never have dared to make an enemy of you! It’s all our fault. I’ve already investigated—Yin Nanxi and his son brought their fate upon themselves. We will never trouble you again, Mr. Yang. Please, find it in your heart to forgive us!"
"Right, exactly!" Fan Ruobing chimed in hastily. "That father and son duo were just asking for death. They deserved to be beaten!"
The others hurriedly added their apologies.
The War God King remained silent, looking over at Yang Qi to gauge his opinion.
"You’ve apologized, but there’s no sincerity in it," Yang Qi stated calmly. "You came here to cause trouble first thing in the morning. If the War God King hadn’t appeared, wouldn’t you have devoured me whole? Do you really think a few empty words are enough to make this right? The world doesn’t work that way."
"Then what more do you want?" Fan Shengren snapped, his anger flaring. If it weren’t for the War God King, we would never have apologized to this kid. Now he’s getting arrogant with borrowed power.
"It’s simple. All of you will kneel here until the sun goes down today. Do that, and I’ll let this matter go. Otherwise, with the way you’ve repeatedly come looking for trouble, there will be no need for the Fan Family to exist anymore. Did you really think I, Yang Qi, was such an easy target?" Yang Qi said, his voice laced with ice.
