Chapter 1384: Chapter 1383: When the Wall Falls, Everybody Pushes

"What do you think Su Ze is going to do to Su Yang this time?"

"Isn’t it obvious? He’s definitely going to kill Su Yang, thoroughly wiping out these people to avenge his grievances!"

"I’ve heard that Su Rui and Su Ze are the best of friends. After the huge loss Su Rui suffered this time, if Su Ze lets Su Yang off, that would be truly unbelievable!"

"Hahaha, this is going to be interesting. Before, Su Yang was using Chen Benhong to threaten Su Ze. Now, Chen Benhong has been rescued, what more can Su Yang do?"

"The people from Ge Kaiyang’s group were all easily annihilated by Su Ze, so what’s Su Yang? Can he even compare to Ge Kaiyang?"

"If it weren’t for Lü Donglin’s support, he wouldn’t even count for a fart!"

"Both have the Su surname, so how come this Su Yang is so weak?"

"Hahaha, why bother about him so much, just wait and enjoy the show..."

For a time, everyone in the Capital City was buzzing with discussions, all talking about when and with what kind of brutal methods Su Ze would kill Su Yang.

Meanwhile, the clans with grudges against Su Yang were terribly excited.

In the last battle with Ge Kaiyang, all these great families were horrified and dared not to fight with Su Yang any longer.

Even the seventeen families that had previously helped Su Yang saw their status in the Capital City slowly rise.

But now, after the incident involving Su Rui came to light, the situation in the Capital City quickly changed.

The Han Family, the one closest to Su Yang, bore the brunt; Young Master Han was beaten up during lunch on that very afternoon. And the one who hit him was Wang Yu, the one closest to Su Ze.

After Wang Yu gave Young Master Han a beating, he even explicitly told him to inform Su Yang that it was he, Wang Yu, who did it, challenging Su Yang to confront him if he dared.

This incident caused an uproar in the entire Capital City, with everyone staring fixedly at Su Yang to see his response.

In fact, after beating Young Master Han, Wang Yu immediately ran back to find his father, Master Wang.

Recently, life had been quite frustrating for Master Wang, as the family was considering displacing him from the position of Family Head. Moreover, his power had been stripped by the Council of Elders, and his status in the Wang Family was declining day by day.

Yet Master Wang was a shrewd man; he did not sit and await doom but chose to meet with Su Ze as soon as he arrived in the Capital City.

No one knows what happened during Master Wang’s audience with Su Ze. But in fact, Master Wang knelt for a full ten minutes in front of Su Ze.

As the Family Head of the Wang Family, one of the Ten Great Families of the Capital City, kneeling for such a long time in front of Su Ze naturally left Su Ze quite satisfied.

Therefore, Su Ze agreed to meet with him. And this encounter became Master Wang’s talisman for protection.

After seeing Su Ze, Master Wang returned to his home with his status immediately elevated. He even began to wrestle for power with the Council of Elders, reclaiming the power that had been taken from him.

The Council of Elders did not know the exact relationship between Master Wang and Su Ze, and they did not dare to press him too hard. As a result, Master Wang gradually showed signs of regaining his influence.

And this time, when Wang Yu beat Young Master Han, it was actually under the directives of Master Wang.

Master Wang understood very well that given Su Ze’s temperament, now that Su Rui had returned from Pingnan Province in defeat, Su Ze would definitely seek revenge against Su Yang.

Therefore, he seized this opportunity to make a swift move, instructing his own son to give Young Master Han a beating.

This incident might seem like a commonplace matter, but in reality, it was a signal from Master Wang declaring war on Su Yang and at the same time, a way to make overtures to Su Ze.

Having suffered several defeats at the hands of Su Yang in the past and having lost all face, Master Wang standing out to declare war on Su Yang now was part of the process to regain his honor and to reassert his authority within the family. Whatever he lost to Su Yang, he naturally intended to retrieve from Su Yang’s side.

And making overtures to Su Ze was also laying the groundwork for his own future. With Su Ze’s support, he might even have the potential to abolish the Council of Elders and take complete control over the whole Wang Family!

He calculated quite precisely, as he surmised that the current Su Yang probably wouldn’t seek revenge for Young Master Han. After all, Su Ze was looking on with eager anticipation.

Even if Su Yang really dared to make a move, Master Wang would seek protection from Su Ze without delay. No matter how powerful Su Yang was, he certainly wouldn’t dare to storm into Su Ze’s territory, would he?

Moreover, Su Ze would definitely take action against Su Yang, and it would surely be in a short span of time. Once Su Ze deals with Su Yang, Master Wang would have nothing to worry about anymore.

Thus, he felt no psychological pressure in doing this. After his son Wang Yu returned, he immediately had people keep watch over Su Yang’s side. The moment there was any movement from Su Yang, he would quickly take Wang Yu to seek protection from Su Ze.

Of course, there was no guarantee that Su Ze would provide protection, but just being near Su Ze’s areas was absolutely safe.

Firstly, Su Yang might not dare to strike over there since that was Su Ze’s area. Secondly, if Su Yang really dared to strike, how could Su Ze sit back and ignore it? If he really ignored it, then Su Ze’s reputation would be utterly ruined.

Master Wang played his winning hand, waiting for Su Yang’s response.

However, there was no sign of movement from Su Yang the entire afternoon, as if he hadn’t even heard about the matter at all.

This situation made everyone in the Capital City look down on Su Yang even more.

You should know, the Han Family as one of the seventeen families that initially supported Su Yang, had always been close to him. Even Young Master Han often visited Su Yang and got along quite well with people on Su Yang’s side; one could often see Young Master Han drinking with Zhao Hu Zi and others associated with Su Yang.

As a result, it was almost as if Young Master Han, a direct affiliate of Su Yang, was beaten to the verge of death, and Su Yang remained indifferent?

Honestly, this situation made many people lose respect for Su Yang.

Your own people were beaten up, and you don’t even react at all, what are you worth? Has Su Ze scared you to this extent?

For a time, the ridicule towards Su Yang among the Capital City’s people increased even more, with many watching Su Yang with a mood of schadenfreude, believing that Su Yang was totally finished. Before, you could threaten Su Ze with the likes of Chen Benhong, but what about now? What do you have left?

Inside the Shen Family Courtyard, Zhao Hu Zi was fuming with anger, puffing his beard and glaring his eyes.

He was now the most trusted subordinate following closely by Su Yang’s side. Young Master Han was very good at ingratiating himself and didn’t have the qualifications to be close to Su Yang, so instead, he chose to frequently liaise with Zhao Hu Zi.

Since Zhao Hu Zi was an extremely generous person who liked to make friends, he soon became quite friendly with Young Master Han through frequent drinking sessions together. Young Master Han was also adept at flattering, which led Zhao Hu Zi to always feel a sense of regret for not having met him earlier.
