Chapter 99: The Guangdong City Shakes!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
What happened in the Green Vine Club spread like wildfire in the Guangdong Base City. People from all the major forces and families learned about it.
The upper echelons of the Guangdong Base City were shocked.
Chu Chen, the monster that the Chu family had nurtured meticulously, had actually had his limbs broken in the Li family’s Green Vine Club and was even beaten into a eunuch. This was going to pierce through the sky.
Chu Zhou’s information was quickly dug out.
“So he was the one who attacked. No wonder Chu Chen lost so miserably. Even though Chu Chen is a genius, he’s still far inferior to Chu Zhou, a top genius who created a miracle in the Extreme Grade Bestial Battle Arena.”
After many people found out that it was Chu Zhou who had attacked, they were enlightened by Chu Chen’s crushing defeat.
“This Chu Zhou might be a top-notch genius, he’s too rash. The Chu family is not an ordinary family. He’s probably in danger after offending the Chu family.”
“That might not be the case. Such top-notch geniuses are usually not nurtured by ordinary forces. This Chu Zhou suddenly appeared in our Guangdong Base City. Perhaps he has a mysterious force behind him.”
The upper echelons of the entire Guangdong Base City were paying attention to the future development.
On one side was a top-notch genius with a mysterious background who had won 50 consecutive battles in the Extreme Grade Bestial Battle Arena.
On one side was the Chu family, one of the few big families in Guangdong Base
City.
The battle between the two sides was quite interesting.
Of course, most people felt that the Chu Family would be the obvious victor.
The Chu family had dominated the Guangdong Base City for many years. They were a famous family with many experts.
As for Chu Zhou, he was just one person.
Even if he was a top-notch genius with terrifying potential…
However, top-notch geniuses who had yet to grow up had yet to form a deterrent force that made those large families afraid.
Everyone from the Li family received the news from the Green Vine Club immediately.
At this moment, even though it was already late at night, the lights in the Li family’s hall were still bright.
Many of the upper echelons of the Li family had gathered, including the old master of the Li family, Li Yanghao.
“Nonsense, this is simply nonsense.”
Li Qingshi’s second uncle, Li Zhengze, stood up angrily and slammed the table. He glared at Li Qingshi.
“What kind of dogsh*t friend did you receive to make him fight with Chu Chen? He even ruthlessly crushed Chu Chen’s limbs and that function. Don’t you know the relationship between the Chu family and our Li family?”
Li Qingshi frowned and said:
“Second Uncle, it’s not Captain’s fault. Chu Chen was the one who spoke first and threatened Captain to leave Guangdong Base City before midnight. Otherwise, Captain and the others would die without an intact corpse.”
“Besides, Captain stood up for me.”
“Stood up for you? He might have caused the Chu family to break off ties with our Li family because of this. Do you know that?” Li Zhengze continued to roar.
He did not care about Li Qingshi’s reason at all.
He only cared about the Li family’s interests.
“Hehe, a certain someone might not care about the interests of the family at all. He clearly knew that marrying Chu Chen would be beneficial to our Li family, but a certain someone ran to Jiang City to avoid Chu Chen. Now, she even colluded with outsiders and crippled Chu Chen…
“Now, someone is happy. With Chu Chen crippled, she has a legitimate excuse to reject the marriage with Chu Chen. However, our Li family is in trouble. For so many years, the Chu family and our Li family have cooperated closely in many fields. Once the Chu family breaks off ties with our Li family, our Li family will suffer heavy losses.”
Someone in the Li family said sarcastically.
Li Qingshi’s face turned ashen. She looked at Li Zhengde, the Patriarch of the Li family, and Li Yanghao, the old man of the Li family.
“Grandpa, Granduncle, I remember that our Li family’s rule is that as long as you can rely on yourself, you can have the freedom in your marriage and work!”
“Ahem!”
The Patriarch of the Li family, Li Zhengde, coughed lightly and said to Li Qingshi,
“Qingshi, let’s talk about your marriage in the future. Let’s deal with the trouble Chu Zhou caused our Li family now.”
Li Yanghao looked at Li Qingshi’s grandfather, Li Zhengyue, and father, Li Mingyuan.
“Third Brother, and Mingyuan, what do you think?”
Li Zhengyue tapped his fingers on the armrest and said calmly,
“Now that Chu Chen is crippled, it’s hard to say if he can recover. A crippled demon is not worth much… The Chu family might not break off relations with our Li family because of a cripple.”
“After all, once we break up, not only will our Li family suffer heavy losses, their Chu family will also suffer heavy losses.”
Li Qingshi’s father Li Mingyuan also said:
“Old Master, Uncle, no matter what, Chu Zhou is standing up for our Li family. If we repay kindness with ingratitude, I’m afraid it won’t be good if word gets out and our Li family’s reputation will be damaged.”
“Besides, you should know the value of a top-notch genius. This is someone who has a chance to become the Human Martial God in the future.
“Coincidentally, this top-rate monstrous genius hasn’t grown up yet, and he’s Qingshi’s good friend. With such a relationship, once this top-rate monstrous genius completely grows up and becomes the Human Martial God… Then, it’s not impossible for our Li Clan to improve further.”
“In the end, this era is still the era of the strong. Only the Martial God, who stands at the top of the pyramid of humanity, is the ruler of humanity. The other factions and families can only look up to the Martial God.”
“Our family doesn’t have a Martial God Seed, so we probably won’t be able to produce a Martial God in the short term… But if we have the chance to befriend a Martial God, the benefits will be equally huge.”
Hearing Li Mingyuan’s analysis, the old man of the Li family and the Patriarch of the Li family, Li Zhengde, were slightly moved.
Exactly!
This world is ultimately the world of the strong.
Only the Martial God was the pinnacle ofhuman society.
Their Li family might be able to advance further if they could befriend a Martial God.
“Third Brother, Mingyuan, you guys are muddle-headed!”
However, Li Zhengze seriously disagreed with Li Zhengyue and Li Mingyuan’s explanation.
“A top-notch genius does have the potential to become a Human Martial God.. but that’s only the potential. The success rate of a top-notch genius becoming a Human Martial God is less than 30%.”
“Furthermore, a dead top-notch genius is worthless.”
“According to my investigation, not only did Chu Zhou offend the Chu family, he also offended the Ling family. In addition, two Western super families, the Ernst and Medici families…
“Do you think these families will let him live?”
“Once our Li family interferes and protects Chu Zhou, I’m afraid we won’t only offend the Chu family, but also the Ling family, the Ernst family, the Medici family… and even the Jiang family behind the Ling family.”
Li Zhengze’s words made the expressions of everyone in the Li family turn solemn.
Many of them only realized now that Chu Zhou had offended so many families, and every one of them was very troublesome.
If the Li family went against so many powerful families for Chu Zhou, it would be very dangerous for the Li family.
“Patriarch! Old Master! Be careful!”
Many people from the Li family looked at the Patriarch of the Li family, Li Zhengde, and the old master of the Li family, Li Yanghao, with solemn gazes. They all hoped that they would not help Chu Zhou.
In fact, there were even people who could directly capture Chu Zhou and hand him over to the Chu family and the other four families to deal with. This way, not only could they resolve the conflict with the Chu family, they could also take the opportunity to establish a closer relationship with the four families.
In this way, it would be very beneficial to their Li family.
Li Yanghao pondered for a moment before slowly saying,
“Our Li family will choose to remain neutral in this matter. We won’t help either side. Third Brother, Mingyuan, what do you think?”
Li Zhengyue and Li Mingyuan nodded helplessly.
They all knew that after Li Zhengze’s words, many people in the Li family did not want to take the risk of offending the four major families at the same time to help Chu Zhou.
There might even be people who hated Chu Zhou for being a busybody and ruining the marriage between Li Qingshi and Chu Chen.
Li Qingshi was a little disappointed with this result.
She convinced her father and grandfather, but she could not convince the rest of the Li family.
Fortunately, even though she was dissatisfied with the outcome, the Li family chose to remain neutral. Otherwise, she would really be too embarrassed to face Chu Zhou.
Among the Li family, Li Qingman’s eyes were sparkling. She had been excited after knowing that Chu Zhou had crippled Chu Chen in order to stand up for Li Qingshi.
“As expected of the man I like. Only such a man can change my fate. Chu Zhou, I’m going to eat you up for sure.”
With this thought in mind, Li Qingman licked her red lips with her tongue. A perverted smile appeared on her charming face..
