43: Chapter 42 There Are Still Moves Left 43: Chapter 42 There Are Still Moves Left “Weren’t you calling me a boy just now?
How did I become ‘little brother’ all of a sudden?”
Chu Yi sat on the railing, playfully taunting with interest.
The wrinkles on the Zheng family patriarch’s face squeezed together in frustration, wishing he could strangle the brat above, yet reality did not permit him to do so.
Just by the way he had dodged the crossbow bolt, it was clear that his skills were formidable, and with the current protective forces of the Zheng Family, they most likely wouldn’t be able to handle him.
Instead of continuing to fight hand-on, it would be better to placate him with stalling tactics for now, and then…
Paying a hundred million to have someone take him down shouldn’t be a problem, right?
If not, then two hundred million, as long as they could afford it, what was some obscure kid in comparison?
Thinking this, he forced out a thin smile and said, “Little brother, it’s said we don’t know each other until we fight.
As long as you agree to let this go, we can wipe the slate clean of what happened before, and our paths will never cross again, how about that?”
Seeing the old man speak so humbly, the people of the Zheng Family couldn’t help clenching their teeth, with rage nearly spewing from their eyes.
Disgrace!
Being attacked at their own home, dozens injured, and still having to beseech for peace, this was an absolute disgrace for the Zheng Family!
But nobody dared to contradict the patriarch’s decision, they could only suppress their anger.
Just as they felt humiliated and shared the same enemy, Chu Yi chuckled dryly in amusement.
“Tsk, tsk, if only my phone’s camera was better, I’d really like to take a picture of your expressions.
If someone who didn’t know any better came along, they might think that I am the one bullying you.”
Isn’t it you who is bullying us!
The Zheng Family members grew even angrier.
It had always been us bullying others, there was never a time when someone dared to come to our door demanding an explanation.
“Forget it, talking to you is a waste of time.”
With these words, Chu Yi suddenly went upstairs, and just when everyone thought he had run off, he returned and jumped straight down from the second floor.
The first floor was the hall, and from the second floor to the ground was at least ten meters, but when he jumped down, he did not dissipate any force, and his knees didn’t even bend a bit.
His skill was plain to see.
Under the astonished and angry gazes of the onlookers, Chu Yi walked through the crowd nonchalantly, as if nothing had happened, heading towards the main door.
Such rampant arrogance disregarded everyone’s presence.
But, the crowd was all fury and no words.
Right at that moment, the Zheng Family patriarch suddenly narrowed his eyes: “Wait!
What have you stashed in your bag?!”
The crowd looked toward Chu Yi’s back, and there he was, with a market stall vendor style fanny pack around his waist, a piece of data cable hanging out.
Chu Yi glanced down, straightened his fanny pack, and said with a smile, “Nothing much, your top floor had a bunch of computers, out of curiosity, I copied all of their data.
Lucky my hard drive was big enough, otherwise, it wouldn’t all fit.”
“What?!”
The Zheng family members immediately turned pale with shock.
The computers upstairs contained detailed records of the Zheng Family’s years of transactions with political and business circles, some audio-visual materials and files used to threaten important figures, and deals that should never see the light of day.
If they had truly been copied…
Thinking of the consequences, the Zheng Family members felt a chill.
At this point, even the Zheng Family patriarch could no longer sit still, and with a slam of his walking stick, he stood up: “Little brother, it’s not very honorable of you to do this!”
No sooner had he spoken than the Zheng family members stepped back as the security staff stepped forward with crossbow bolts ready.
At the same time, phone calls were made in a flurry, calling for reinforcements.
Chu Yi slowly turned around, revealing a smile devoid of any warmth: “This is hardly anything yet, I haven’t even sent it out.
It won’t be too late to call me dishonorable then.”
The Zheng patriarch’s expression darkened like the depths of water, his gaze fixed on him: “Little brother, it is better to resolve matters than to persist with conflicts.
As long as you hand over the data, my Zheng family will give you fifty million…
no, a hundred million.
What do you say?”
Chu Yi shook his head: “Not enough.”
“Two hundred million!”
Chu Yi still shook his head.
The patriarch of the Zheng Family, struggling to contain his rage, gritted his teeth and said, “Then you name your price.”
Chu Yi chuckled disdainfully, “I want your Zheng Family to be destroyed, its people dead and gone!”
Upon these words, the air turned tense as if frozen.
Seconds later, the people of the Zheng Family could no longer restrain their anger and began shouting and cursing.
“Delusional!
Who the hell do you think you are to want our Zheng Family to crumble and perish?”
“Utterly nonsensical, you really think you’ve got us cornered?”
“Have we Zheng Family men lost our fighting spirit?
Just for that remark, I’d risk my life just to take you down with me!”
…
Amid the barrage of curses, the Zheng Family patriarch asked with a somber face, “Kid, must you really take it so far?
What good does that do for you?”
Chu Yi patted his pouch, “Didn’t you just ask me if I wasn’t afraid of retribution for killing so many bodyguards?
I’m not, because I am your retribution.”
As he spoke, Chu Yi’s aura became increasingly fierce.
“You…
saw it?” Old Master Zheng squinted his eyes and asked.
“I didn’t see much, just up to last October when, for the sake of a piece of land, your family sunk your competitors’ family into the river, kidnapped the wife and child of the supervising officer to secure an order, drugged a girl in your household, and then had the nerve to counter accuse them of extortion…
Tsk, tsk, how capable you all are.”
Upon hearing this, Old Master Zheng couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
“It seems I can’t let you leave today.”
Chu Yi smiled slightly, “Wouldn’t it have been better to be this decisive earlier?”
No sooner had he spoken than the security guards pulled the triggers of their compound crossbows.
Dozens of crossbow bolts whistled through the air, closing in instantly.
Just as they were about to strike, Chu Yi quickly drew his sword, and with a clang, cut down two bolts.
His other hand reached behind and whipped out a folding shield.
The shield wasn’t big, only about the size of two keyboards when unfolded, but it was enough to deflect several bolts away in an instant.
Despite another volley, they still failed to harm even a single hair on Chu Yi.
“Use the stun guns!”
Someone shouted, and the guards immediately dropped their compound crossbows, pulling out stun guns from their waists and aiming at him.
Just then, Chu Yi burst into the crowd.
The long blade forged by the Wen Family was razor-sharp, and in his hands it became even more lethal, instantly spraying blood in all directions as arms fell to the ground.
Hearing the dreadful screams, the Zheng Family members felt their scalps tingle, with the more faint-hearted among them terrified to the point of collapsing on the floor.
In just a few minutes, dozens of security guards were lying on the ground, clutching their severed arms and wailing.
Whoosh!
Chu Yi flicked his long sword, and immediately, not a drop of blood remained on it.
“Any more tricks up your sleeve?
If not, I’m off to catch the last bus.”
Chu Yi stood amidst the groaning and bloodstained scene as if nothing had happened, asking casually.
The Zheng Family members shuddered, their faces ashen, and the old patriarch clutched his heart, almost unable to bear the shock.
“It seems there are none, so I’m leaving now.”
Chu Yi twirled his sword elegantly into its sheath and strolled out leisurely.
But just as he stepped over the threshold, a flash of cold light shot toward him.
Thwack!
Chu Yi tilted his head, and a palm-length steel needle embed itself in a pillar behind him, its tail quivering intensely.
“Where did this wild brat come from?
Didn’t your elders teach you any manners?”
