Chapter 1412: Chapter 1413: Winning People Over with Virtue

As for Han Fei’er and Shang Qingyu, it was almost like listening to a tale; they couldn’t believe those words at all.

“How is Gongshu Hu from the Five Tiger Sect doing?”

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

An individual abruptly appeared in the field.

No one saw exactly how he arrived.

But he was standing there.

Calmly smiling as he looked at Gongshu Yu.

“Who are you?!”

Gongshu Yu was startled. Someone managed to appear silently in front of him—too uncanny.

“The person you’re looking for!”

Xiao Chen said lightly, “Alright, here I am. Now you can release them, right?”

“Haha, kid, you really have a death wish.”

Gongshu Yu sneered at Xiao Chen, showing a malicious grin. “Let them go? You’re dreaming. You should know what kind of person I am!”

Xiao Chen sighed. “How does Gongshu Hu have a brother like you, someone who works so hard to court death?

Considering Gongshu Hu helped me once in the past, I’ll spare your life. Get out of here—this is not a place for your antics!”

“You know my elder brother?”

Gongshu Yu frowned.

“Yes, I do.”

Xiao Chen responded flatly, then turned to Zhang Luo, Shang Qingyu, and the others. “In the future, if something like this happens, just reach out to me.

Now, all of you can leave. Don’t worry, no one will block your way!”

“Qingyu, let’s go!”

Zhang Luo grabbed Shang Qingyu’s hand and, leaning on his cane, headed outside.

“But what about Chen’er? He may be inept, but he’s still my sister’s child!”

Shang Qingyu appeared anxious.

“He’ll be fine!”

Zhang Luo reassured.

If this were before what happened last time, he might still worry about Xiao Chen.

But not now.

The strength of Xiao Chen—he already knew.

Even though it was just a brief glimpse, he understood Xiao Chen was incredibly formidable.

“Auntie, I didn’t expect you’d eventually care about me. Don’t worry, I’ll handle things virtuously.

I trust Mr. Gongshu here won’t act recklessly.”

Xiao Chen chuckled.

“Alright!”

Seeing Xiao Chen’s confidence, Shang Qingyu couldn’t help but believe him.

People from Qingyu Company headed out in droves.

Not many—only a few senior executives.

But how could Gongshu Yu let them leave?

He waved his hand, and immediately someone blocked the door.

Yet the next moment, those few men dropped to the ground suddenly, clutching their faces and wailing in pain.

No one could understand what just happened.

Gongshu Yu saw it clearly.

Xiao Chen had attacked, several pebbles speeding out of his hands with startling rapidity.

Gongshu Yu frowned, finally taking Xiao Chen seriously.

This kid was definitely no ordinary person.

“Let them go—don’t block them!”

Since stopping them was impossible, it was better not to try.

The people he brought with him weren’t many.

In total, there were six.

Three were already taken down.

He couldn’t afford to lose anyone else.

After Han Fei’er and the others had left.

A young man beside Gongshu Yu suddenly darted forward, dagger in hand, flashing coldly as he aimed straight for Xiao Chen’s vital spot.

“Die!”

Xiao Chen chuckled, reaching out with one hand to clamp the dagger between two fingers like an iron claw.

“Die? I haven’t lived long enough—why should I?”

Snatching the dagger, Xiao Chen sneered coldly and countered with a stab.

The young man clutched his eye, crying out in agony, his whole body trembling violently.

What!

Gongshu Yu rose from his seat.

He knew how strong the young man was.

Within Heijie Security, this youth’s power ranked second—only slightly below Gongshu Yu himself.

Now he was effortlessly taken down by Xiao Chen.

If no treatment was provided soon, not only could he lose his sight, but his life as well.

“Heijie Security—are you looking to shut down for good?”

Xiao Chen sat down, lit a cigarette, and said, “I’ve already given you two chances. Why can’t you behave?

If you’re a security company, stick to doing what a security company should do—not engaging in illegal activities.”

He completely ignored the youth wailing on the ground.

“Ha!”

Gongshu Yu let out a roar, his fists punching forward, muscles on his arms seemingly ready to explode.

In a few quick steps, he was in front of Xiao Chen, swinging ferociously.

“Can’t you use your words?”

Xiao Chen’s eyes flashed coldly as he grabbed Gongshu Yu’s fists, still holding his cigarette between his lips.

He applied light pressure with both hands.

Crack!

Gongshu Yu broke out into a cold sweat from the pain, letting out a muffled groan before being thrown aside by Xiao Chen.

“Rushing to your death—what’s the hurry? I’m still talking.”

Xiao Chen took a drag from his cigarette, saying, “But if you want to continue, I don’t mind!”

Gongshu Yu lay on the ground, staring at Xiao Chen in horror: “You’re a Grandmaster!”

Grandmaster?

Xiao Chen chuckled. In the eyes of the weak, they could never perceive a true master.

“Whether I’m a Grandmaster isn’t important. But today, I have just one statement: Heijie Security is on my radar. If I catch word of any similar actions again, I’ll utterly destroy you all.

Don’t think I’m joking.

Xiao Chen said coldly: “You think learning a bit of Martial Dao makes you invincible? Ready to dismiss anyone?”

“Do you know that Heijie Security is a subsidiary of the Five Tiger Sect?”

Gongshu Yu asked.

“I don’t know, nor do I need to know. Don’t bother throwing the Five Tiger Sect at me—I couldn’t care less about them!

Next time, contact me directly. Better yet, send your Sect Leader personally. I can’t be bothered with weaklings like you.”

Xiao Chen tossed his Qingyu Company business card to Gongshu Yu, crouched down, and patted Gongshu Yu’s face.

“You can insult me, but don’t insult my Five Tiger Sect.”

Gongshu Yu said angrily.

“So what if I insult them? A bunch of fools who don’t know their place, wasting their talents. Annoy me again, and I’ll uproot the Five Tiger Sect entirely!”

Xiao Chen said coldly.

“You’re too arrogant. Today, we’ve lost—I admit defeat. Heijie Security won’t target Qingyu Company anymore, but the Five Tiger Sect will come for you!

Men, let’s go!”

Gongshu Yu was helped up by his subordinates and left alongside the injured youth in a sorry state.

Outside, Han Fei’er and the others ran back in, stunned.

“Brother Xiao, how did you do it? Why did they leave?”

Han Fei’er asked.

“Reason wins people. Virtue wins hearts.”

Xiao Chen grinned, saying, “Mr. Gongshu is quite reasonable. I laid things out for him, and he accepted my suggestion.

They won’t bother Qingyu Company anymore.

You can all relax now.”

“Who would’ve thought—you even have such eloquent persuasion. No wonder Jiang Meng, such a great girl, was sweet-talked by you.”

Shang Qingyu actually believed him, unable to fathom another explanation.

Only Zhang Luo gazed at Xiao Chen in astonishment. He understood that Gongshu Yu couldn’t possibly be convinced by mere words. Just what had Xiao Chen done?
