In Wen Qiang's eyes, this group of trash were mere brats.
They were no match for someone like him, who came from the capital. A single toenail of his was more important than the lives of these people, let alone the reputation of his Wen family.
Just then, his phone rang.
A deep male voice came from the receiver: "Young Master Wen, shall we act?"
"Act, leave no one alive!"
Wen Qiang hung up the phone and said to the driver in front, "Let's go. The commotion this time is quite significant. I suspect the relevant departments in the provincial capital won't approve. We'll head back to the capital; that's our home ground!"
"Yes!"
The driver floored the accelerator, and the Bugatti Veyron sped off in one direction.
Surrounded by a group of men in black, some finally understood.
They cried out in despair, "We're finished! Boss of Heping Villa, Chen Jie was right, we've been tricked!"
"The Wen family truly intends to wipe us all out! Damn them, they'd rather slaughter all of us to save face and prevent the news from getting out! How hateful!"
"Since you know, then offer your necks!"
Ah Qiang roared and attacked.
*Puff, puff...*
Several prominent figures were immediately dispatched.
The scene was brutal.
"I refuse! I don't want to die like this, spare me! I won't reveal anything about the Wen family!"
*Puff...*
"Ah!"
The ones begging for mercy were the first to be dealt with.
"Hateful! We should have listened to Chen Jie. If only we knew this would happen!"
A group of people tried to escape, but experts among them were few.
Even if there were, they were merely experts from the provincial capital, no match for the people of ancient families like the Wen family.
Therefore, facing the Wen family's numerous experts, they had no power to resist, only the fate of being harvested.
Earlier, some were confused. They heard Wen Qiang boasting about the Wen family's experts being on the periphery, yet only five had entered.
This didn't seem as powerful as Wen Qiang's boasts!
Now they knew: the Wen family's experts had been waiting to kill them.
Alas, no matter how unwilling they were, their regrets could only be buried in the northwest.
*Puff, puff, puff...*
The wealthy elites, usually so high and mighty, were now all like stray dogs, no different from the oppressed common people.
Some were so terrified they soiled themselves, utterly losing composure.
In the face of death, all beings were equal.
Soon, the ground was stained red. No one remained standing except for the Wen family's experts.
All of this concluded in less than a minute.
A man in black said, "Half of you return to the capital. The other half, follow me to Heping Villa to eliminate Chen Jie!"
"Yes!"
Everyone rushed back.
Inside the auction hall, the remaining four Wen family experts did not act hastily.
The one leading them called out, "I assume the members of the Gu family also bear grudges against this Chen Jie. Why not join forces with me to eliminate him?"
Chen Jie's gaze turned icy, killing intent surging.
Gu Bao hesitated. Gu Yue was about to speak when Gu Chong suddenly said, "Good! Chen Jie openly auctioned our Gu family's ancient cultivation methods; he deserves to die!"
He glanced at Gu Bao and Gu Yue, "Gu Bao, Gu Yue, you will act with me and join forces to eliminate Chen Jie!"
"Uncle, no, this Chen Jie and I..." Gu Yue quickly stopped him.
"Hmph! Why not! Our alliance with the Wen family is already giving Chen Jie face. This time, many of our Gu family's experts haven't even mobilized, what more do you want?"
"Chen Jie, I'll give you one last chance. If you hand over the ancient cultivation methods now and kowtow to us in public as an apology, I will not interfere in your feud with the Wen family!"
Gu Chong said to Chen Jie.
Chen Jie replied calmly, "Then I'll give you a chance too. After my repeated warnings, if you dare to cause trouble in Heping Villa again, it won't be settled with a mere hundred billion like Wen Qiang!"
"You little brat! You're on the brink of death, and you dare to threaten me? You truly don't know how you're going to die! Act!"
Gu Chong was furious.
After his roar, the remaining four Wen family experts charged towards Chen Jie.
"Hmph! You dare to touch Chen Jie, you're seeking death! Retreat!"
Seeing this, Jiang Xue was greatly alarmed. She knew Chen Jie still faced more formidable opponents. Although she outwardly appeared displeased with Chen Jie, she was the first to step forward to help him.
She immediately clashed with several of the Wen family's experts.
Having secretly cultivated with Chen Jie, her physique and strength far surpassed ordinary martial arts masters.
Her fight with the old recluse at the reception earlier had not showcased her full power.
Now, in her fury, she fought them to a standstill!
"Jiang Xue is so powerful!" Wang Xiaoyan exclaimed.
"Gu Bao, aren't you going to act!"
Gu Chong coldly ordered Gu Bao. Gu Bao's expression tensed, and he quickly said, "Yes!"
At this moment, Gu Bao no longer hesitated and prepared to attack Chen Jie with Gu Chong.
Just then, the Wen family's black-clad experts from outside stormed in.
The leader roared, "Everyone who walks out of here has been killed. People of Heping Villa, kneel and accept death immediately!"
"What? You killed all those people?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue's delicate body trembled, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"That's right. Our Young Master Wen suffered a grave humiliation here, which is also a disgrace to our Wen family. All personnel who witnessed this must die! To ensure they don't spread the word outside!"
The leader stated as if it were natural.
Chen Jie's expression was utterly cold.
He had wanted to say something, but considering those people had left willingly and ignored his warnings, he could only let it be.
"You've gone too far, those were living lives!" Gu Yue angrily rebuked. "Our Gu family also witnessed Young Master Wen's humiliation. Are you going to kill us too?"
Gu Yue was not a soft-hearted person, but she was certainly not someone who considered human lives as mere grass.
Learning of this incident now, she felt an unprecedented loathing for the Wen family.
She detested Wen Qiang even more.
"That's not necessary. The Gu family and our Wen family have always been old acquaintances. We trust that the Gu family won't spread this matter. However, everyone in Heping Villa must die! To ensure that the matter of Young Master Wen's humiliation is not publicized."
The man in black said.
"Uncle! We cannot let them slaughter innocent people like this!" Gu Yue said to Gu Chong.
Seeing Gu Yue's reaction, Chen Jie was somewhat surprised.
He began to have a better impression of her.
"Chen Jie, he truly deserves to die!" Gu Chong said expressionlessly.
"Uncle, surely you don't..." Gu Yue's pretty face changed slightly, as if she had realized something.
"That's right. Young Master Wen's decision is also my decision. We are old acquaintances with the Wen family and cannot stand by while the Wen family's honor is slandered and spread."
"Therefore, not only must all unrelated personnel present today die, but Chen Jie and everyone he knows must also die!"
