Supreme Warrior in the City
Chapter 1355 - 1354 Su Ze

Chapter 1355: Chapter 1354 Su Ze

"Fight poison with poison?" Su Yang and Lü Donglin exchanged looks of surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

The Drunken Monk did not answer but asked instead, "Master Su, regarding Chen Benhong’s disappearance, who do you think is behind it?"

After pondering for a moment, Su Yang replied solemnly, "It must be Black and White Impermanence!"

"That’s right!" The Drunken Monk nodded, "Right now, many in Capital City want to kill you, but the ones who truly wish to see you dead are people like Ge Kaiyang. Besides, only they have the capability to spirit away Chen Benhong from a place like the Wang Family’s without anyone noticing."

"So what then?" Lü Donglin asked.

"This move is called ’borrowing someone else’s knife to kill,’" said the Drunken Monk, "People like Ge Kaiyang abducted Chen Benhong, drawing the Su Family of Yanbei to Capital City, using them as the tool to remove Master Su. But have you considered this? Why did people like Su Ze rush to Capital City as soon as Chen Benhong went missing?"

"Isn’t that obvious!" Lü Donglin snorted, "Chen Benhong is a puppet groomed by the Su Family of Yanbei, he’s crucial to the Su Family of Yanbei, and is a key factor in their power struggle with the Black Widow. If Chen Benhong is gone, all the schemes the Su Family of Yanbei had invested in over the years would be wasted, how could they not be anxious?"

"Exactly!" The Drunken Monk said with a smile, "Since the Su Family of Yanbei values Chen Benhong so much, they certainly wouldn’t want him dead."

Seeing the Drunken Monk fall silent again, Lü Donglin urged, "Just speak your mind, stop beating around the bush, do you even sound like a man?"

The Drunken Monk wanted to keep them in suspense, but he was helpless against someone as impatient as Lü Donglin.

Shrugging his shoulders, the Drunken Monk said, "Put simply, Chen Benhong could be used to threaten the Su Family of Yanbei, as well as people like Su Ze."

Both Lü Donglin and Su Yang’s eyes brightened, and Su Yang eagerly said, "You mean..."

"Exactly!" The Drunken Monk said with a laugh, "Chen Benhong can be used to force Su Ze and his people to do what you want them to do!"

Su Yang inhaled deeply, "Is that possible?"

"That depends on what sort of enemy you find for them!" said the Drunken Monk with a faint smile, "Some of them might be on their hit list already, right?"

Su Yang looked at Lü Donglin, who immediately turned to Xue Nu.

After pondering for a while, Xue Nu said, "The grudge between the Su Family of Yanbei and the Jade-Faced Judge is no small matter either. They’ve clashed several times, with heavy losses on both sides. The Su Family would probably really want to eliminate Ge Kaiyang and the likes of Black and White Impermanence!"

"Then let’s do that!" Lü Donglin slammed the table and said to Su Yang, "Use Chen Benhong to threaten them, make them go after Ge Kaiyang and his people!"

After some thought, Su Yang said with a deep voice, "Since we know that it’s Ge Kaiyang and his people who abducted Chen Benhong, then we can use Chen Benhong to threaten Su Ze and his people to deal with Ge Kaiyang. Then Ge Kaiyang could also use Chen Benhong to threaten Su Ze’s group to deal with us. We don’t have Chen Benhong in our hands; from this point of view, we’re at a disadvantage!"

The Drunken Monk chuckled, "This is exactly where the crux of the problem lies. Ge Kaiyang and his people abducted Chen Benhong and framed you, a clever plan indeed. But the key issue is, do they dare to reveal Chen Benhong’s whereabouts?"

"Once Chen Benhong is exposed, their feud with the Su Family of Yanbei is set in stone!" Lü Donglin laughed, "Then, even if they dare to use Chen Benhong to threaten the people of the Su Family of Yanbei, the Su Family of Yanbei will certainly not let them off. Consequently, whatever plans the Jade-Faced Judge has will become hard to execute!"

"Yes!" Drunken Monk nodded: "Moreover, even if they really dare to do that, using Chen Benhong to threaten the Su Family of Yanbei, Chen Benhong’s location would be exposed. Then, without our interference, the Su Family of Yanbei will try to rescue Chen Benhong. At that point, Ge Kaiyang will still have no leverage, and instead, he will have taken much of the pressure off Master Su of the Su Family of Yanbei!"

"This is a good strategy!" Su Yang nodded sincerely. After careful consideration, he found the plan to be indeed exquisite.

"Then it’s settled!" Lü Donglin laughed heartily: "Ge Kaiyang, that rotten bastard, thinks that by capturing Chen Benhong and framing Su Yang, Su Yang would be completely trapped. Hmph, they will soon realize what it means to shoot themselves in the foot!"

Su Yang also smiled faintly; this method was indeed excellent. It wouldn’t only reduce a lot of pressure for Su Yang, but the most crucial aspect was that the confrontation between the Su Family of Yanbei and Ge Kaiyang’s group also fell in line with Su Yang’s interests.

...

Su Ze arrived in Capital City earlier than Black Widow had anticipated.

By the next day at noon, the people of the Su Family of Yanbei entered Capital City in an extremely high-profile manner.

Chen Yuanchuan personally led the Chen Family to greet them, but Su Ze did not even meet with them, nor did he stay at the Chen residence. Instead, he went straight to the most luxurious hotel in Capital City.

This alone was enough to show the Su Family of Yanbei’s dissatisfaction with Chen Yuanchuan!

Chen Yuanchuan was extremely embarrassed. His current position in the Chen Family was also very awkward. The Family Head, his father, had been forced to step down, while his son, although the heir, was also on shaky ground. The most pressing issue was that his son had suddenly disappeared, making him as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

Now his only reliance was the Su Family of Yanbei, and despite the considerable embarrassment, Chen Yuanchuan still went out of his way to seek an audience with Su Ze.

After waiting for over two hours, Chen Yuanchuan finally met Su Ze.

Su Ze was very young, even two years younger than Su Yang, only sixteen or seventeen years old.

However, he had become one of the most notorious profligates spoken of by many.

Su Ze’s greatest hobby was to use various punishments to torment people, watching them suffer and die.

At the age of seven or eight, he had pushed Lü Donglin into an ice cave just to see if someone could really freeze to death underneath the icy kennel, indicating just how cruel and vicious he was.

Chen Yuanchuan had heard many stories about Su Ze, and standing in front of Su Ze, he too was sweating profusely and extremely apprehensive.

Under everyone’s gaze, Chen Yuanchuan stepped forward, bent at the waist, and bowed: "Chen Yuanchuan of the Chen Family, pays respects to Young Master Su Ze of the Su Family!"

Su Ze didn’t even glance at him, leaning lazily on one of the serving girls behind him, with one hand wandering inside the clothing of the beautiful maid.

"How dare you, Chen Yuanchuan! You stand in the presence of our young master!" another maid shouted: "Kneel and show your respects!"

Chen Yuanchuan’s expression changed. He was over fifty years old while Su Ze was only sixteen or seventeen. Besides, in terms of seniority, he was a generation above Su Ze, how could he kneel like this?
