Chapter 496: Chapter 496 The Obedient Girl

Zhao Geng’s face changed dramatically, words that clearly amounted to a direct stance against the Tiger Gang, indicating an impending move against them.

"Miss Jiang, actually about today’s incident..."

Zhao Geng tried to explain but was interrupted by Jiang Meiren.

"Do you think those words are still useful? You are more detestable than Wang Xiaolong. The Jiang Family can no longer tolerate the Tiger Gang."

Zhao Geng was confounded and completely panicked.

What Chen Wenhao had promised him were just some business profits, although substantial, he did not guarantee protection for the Tiger Gang.

Zhao Geng was uncertain if seeking help from Chen Wenhao would actually yield his support.

But doing so would truly confirm the Tiger Gang’s duplicity and treachery.

They would be despised by the Martial World.

"Miss Jiang, I can give you an explanation for this matter, please reconsider, Miss Jiang."

"No need, go back and have your father prepare."

At that moment, Liu Zhendong also said to Zhao Geng, "Haven’t you thought about it? Today, with Wang Xiaolong’s help for Chen Wenhao, you not only made Zhang Yang the target of public criticism but also pushed the Jiang Family into the eye of the storm."

"If the Jiang Family were to still tolerate the Tiger Gang, it would be a laughingstock."

Liu Zhendong’s words indeed woke Zhao Geng from his dream.

The previously self-satisfied Zhao Geng finally understood that the so-called benefits, the so-called help for the Tiger Gang to swallow the Azure Dragon Association, was just a joke.

What they had done had already crossed the Jiang Family’s bottom line.

It had even touched the bottom line of the Martial World; treachery and betrayal were exactly what he epitomized.

It was too late to realize this now, Zhao Geng knew there was no room for maneuver.

Especially since Jiang Meiren was prepared to use all of the Jiang Family’s resources to protect Zhang Yang, it was clear there was no way back.

Zhao Geng then realized he had also been played by Chen Wenhao.

He didn’t dare stay any longer, he had to rush home and inform his father.

At least to carve out a sliver of hope for the Tiger Gang.

Watching Zhao Geng leave, the others also dared not linger.

The Martial World had been calm for too long, it hadn’t been this turbulent in a long time.

Once a great battle stirred in the Martial World, all factions would inevitably be involved.

No one was in the mood to just watch anymore; the Martial World might be reshuffled.

This reshuffling was destined to see some rise and others fall.

Jiang Meiren and Liu Zhendong then found a place to discuss further matters, especially concerning the protection of Zhang Yang, and came up with a plan.

Both being outstanding figures of their generation, their cooperation was not to be underestimated.

Liu He, listlessly standing to one side, couldn’t interject as he had been rebuffed several times already.

It seemed like he was just a brainless idiot in front of Jiang Meiren and Liu Zhendong, which was quite demoralizing.

"I wonder what Zhang Yang is doing now?" Liu He started to wonder distractedly.

At that moment, Zhang Yang, along with Shen Mange and Xia Xue, had arrived at Cheng Yue’s home.

Since Shen Mange wasn’t suitable to return to the hotel, and Xia Xue wasn’t fit to go home, Zhang Yang simply rode his motorcycle with the two to visit Cheng Yue.

Cheng Yue’s place was spacious and had many rooms.

However, what amused Zhang Yang was that Cheng Yue, the owner of the house, wasn’t even home.

After a phone call, he found out that Cheng Yue was still at the lab.

It seemed that Cheng Yue was overwhelmed with issues of stolen experimental data and results.

Luckily, both Zhang Yang and Xia Xue knew the password to Cheng Yue’s villa.

Of course, Zhang Yang didn’t reveal this; he just let Xia Xue open the door while also explaining over the phone to Cheng Yue that they would stay the night at her place.

Cheng Yue was indifferent, only asking not to demolish the house.

The three of them sat down and suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Shen Mange and Xia Xue were like children who had done something wrong, hanging their heads low, fiddling with their fingers, at a loss what to do, and unsure how to break the silence.

Zhang Yang found their appearance somewhat amusing but felt a pain in his heart seeing the wine stains on their clothes.

"You two go take a shower first, Sister Yue has two bathrooms here where you can both freshen up," Zhang Yang was the first to break the silence.

"Oh!" Both obediently responded.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang then said to Xia Xue, "Cousin, help find some clean clothes for Shen Mange as well, will you?"

"Oh, sure!" Xia Xue quickly agreed.

Watching the two head to the bathrooms, Zhang Yang also heaved a long sigh of relief.

Then he completely relaxed, leaning back on the couch.

That’s when he spotted the cigarettes Cheng Yue had left on the table and lit one up.

Even though Zhang Yang didn’t usually smoke, having one in times like these felt quite refreshing.

He took a long drag and exhaled a plume of smoke, reminiscing about the night’s events.

Though he had fought fiercely and boldly all the way, only Zhang Yang knew the true perils he faced.

Zhang Yang was no god but merely a human. A slash could still leave a gash on his body.

If bullets hit his vitals, he could also die.

The closest shaves were when three hall masters from the Azure Dragon Association opened fire on him with their pickup truck right out of the gate.

In the midst of bullets flying everywhere, Zhang Yang was sweating bullets as well.

Even now, thinking back, he felt a huge sense of relief.

Another close call was when he saved Shen Mange and Xia Xue. A minute slower, a step later, and both he, Shen Mange, and Xia Xue might have been wounded.

By the end, Zhang Yang had nearly no strength left.

The energy of the Nine Revolutions was almost depleted; otherwise, he might not have let Wang Tianfang and Wang Xiaolong off so easily.

After another drag, Zhang Yang cracked a smile.

Despite the tremendous risks, it was indeed thrilling.

Zhang Yang had never truly gone all out before today. Today, he had really indulged in the fight.

"So tired!" Zhang Yang snuffed out the cigarette and sighed helplessly.

Once he completely relaxed, exhaustion overwhelmed him like a flood.

Unconsciously, Zhang Yang fell asleep.

He didn’t know how long he had been out when he began to feel a prickling sensation all over his body.

Suddenly, a refreshingly tingling sensation followed, accompanied by wafts of a fragrant breeze.

Zhang Yang slowly opened his eyes, only to find two beautiful women blowing on his arms and shoulders.

They were also carefully applying medicine to his wounds.

"I can do it myself," Zhang Yang said.

Hearing him speak, the two focused women jumped slightly, then both said in unison, "Let me do it!"

Zhang Yang slowly got up, then realized that his leg and other injuries were wrapped up in bandages.

Good heavens, they had almost turned him into a mummy.

"No, I can’t move like this," Zhang Yang said, laughing and crying at the same time.

Only then did Shen Mange and Xia Xue realize their handiwork, bursting into laughter together.

They hadn’t expected to wrap Zhang Yang up like this.

But as they laughed, tears began to flow again.

They had wrapped each wound, one by one; the more bandages there were, the more wounds there were.

For the two of them, Zhang Yang had gotten himself covered in bruises and cuts.
