"Who is he?" Wen Qiang asked.
A San said dismissively, "Young Master Wen, don't worry, he's just someone from a small place. He can't compare to anyone from our capital city. We could crush him with a single finger!"
"I asked you who he is!"
"Let me think, what was his name again? He called himself Chen Jie! That brat is incredibly arrogant!"
Wen Qiang's mind went blank.
It really was Chen Jie!
Had he found his way to the capital?
He still hadn't figured out how Chen Jie survived after protecting the Peaceful Mountain Villa last time!
He tried to ask Gu Yue for information, but received no useful news.
Gu Chong and Gu Bao had escaped, so logically, Chen Jie should have died too.
Yet, he was alive and well until this day.
"Never mind the rest for now. You all need to come here immediately!" Wen Qiang said with a serious tone.
"Alright, we're on our way."
A San hung up the phone, not thinking much of it. Just as he was about to speed up, someone behind him suddenly cried out, "What the hell are you doing here?"
He turned back to see a shadow appearing out of nowhere inside his car.
The shadow said with a sinister smile, "I've come to collect your heads!"
"How dare you! You're looking for death!"
Two of them became enraged and threw punches at the shadow.
Their anger blinded them, and they forgot to even consider how the shadow had appeared in their car so silently.
*Puff puff...*
The shadow swung its scythe, and the heads of the two attackers were instantly severed.
"You, how dare you lay a hand on our Wen family members? Who gave you the guts? Do you know who we are?"
"I don't care who you are. You've offended Brother Chen, and you're all destined to die!"
*Puff puff...*
The shadow struck again, severing two more heads.
"You..."
The remaining few finally realized something was wrong.
This person was too powerful; they had no chance to resist.
They were all super experts, after all.
"Stop! How dare you!"
"Remember this! Brother Chen is a father you can never afford to provoke!"
The shadow let out a sinister laugh, vanished into thin air, and reappeared, flickering continuously.
One by one, their heads were all severed, leaving only A San.
The shadow didn't kill A San directly but severed his tendons in his hands and feet, crippling him.
Desperados!
They were desperados!
Even if their own strength was inferior, didn't that Chen Jie know the gap between them and the Wen family?
How could he dare to do this?
At this moment, A San regretted his attitude towards Chen Jie just now.
If he had known this would happen, even if he knew the Wen family was powerful, he wouldn't have dared to be so excessive with Chen Jie.
"Heh heh, no wonder Li Ziling, an ordinary woman, can become the leader of the Dragon Gate. It turns out she has powerful backing. Young Master Wen, you underestimated Li Ziling!" A San thought to himself.
The shadow sat beside A San and gently patted his face, "Go back and tell your master to come and apologize to Brother Chen within a day. I'll leave you with an intact corpse. Otherwise, wash your necks and wait!"
Saying that, he slapped the car's center console.
With a loud bang, the car windows shattered.
Simultaneously, the car lost control and veered into traffic.
*Boom boom boom...*
Multiple vehicles were hit, creating loud noises.
A San's head hit the steering wheel, and blood flowed.
When he lifted his head, he found the shadow had long since disappeared.
Meanwhile, Chen Jie swaggered towards the Dragon Gate with A Zhu.
"Stop!"
The gatekeeper blocked them.
He questioned Chen Jie, "What's your identity? Are you from the Dragon Gate?"
Chen Jie frowned, "I'm not from the Dragon Gate, I'm here to see someone!"
"See someone? What do you think the Dragon Gate is? A place anyone can just come and go as they please?"
"You wait by the door!" the security guard said.
He wasn't usually like this, but because of A Zhu, he stopped Chen Jie.
He knew A Zhu's relationship with Li Ziling and that Young Master Wen had his eye on Li Ziling.
Therefore, he wanted to help Young Master Wen prevent other men from getting close to Li Ziling.
"I thought your Dragon Gate was nothing. I can indeed come and go as I please. After all, someone has defecated on your heads, and the Dragon Gate remains indifferent." Chen Jie said calmly.
"You're looking for death! Get out!" The security guard was furious upon hearing this.
He didn't know whose men they were; how could a mere gatekeeper afford to offend them?
"Wait!"
A Zhu quickly interjected, "Uncle, Teacher Chen is a good friend of the Dragon Lord. He's just going in to see the Dragon Lord!"
The Dragon Lord?
He actually had the nerve to say that.
She was just a puppet!
The security guard sneered, "It doesn't matter who he's looking for. If I say you can't enter, you can't enter!"
A Zhu was annoyed, "How can you be like this? When others bring outsiders in, I don't see you stopping them. Why are you stopping me?"
"I suspect this person has ulterior motives towards the Dragon Lord, so he cannot enter. Otherwise, who would be responsible if something happened?" the security guard questioned.
"I'll take responsibility!" A Zhu said angrily.
"You take responsibility? Who do you think you are? Can you afford to take responsibility?"
"You..."
A Zhu was furious.
Chen Jie waved his hand, stopping her from continuing.
Then he looked at the security guard and said, "Get out of the way."
"You dare to tell me to get out? Are you tired of living? I..."
The security guard pulled out his baton and swung it at Chen Jie.
*Bang!*
The next moment, Chen Jie kicked out, and the guard was sent flying backward.
"You refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. If you dare to stop me again, you'll bear the consequences!" Chen Jie said calmly.
Then he said to A Zhu, "Let's go!"
"Ah, but..."
A Zhu stuck out her tongue, her heart pounding.
She had never offended anyone since coming to the Dragon Gate.
Today, Chen Jie's arrival had caused such a stir, making her extremely nervous.
However, amidst her fear, A Zhu felt a strange thrill.
She hoped Chen Jie could help them vent their anger.
"You, you're looking for death..."
The security guard clutched his stomach and pulled out his phone, "Leader, I want to report that someone hit me and is forcing their way into our Dragon Gate!"
"Who is so bold? Is it from the Wen family, Young Master Wen?"
"No! It's another commoner! I heard his surname is Chen, and that A Zhu calls him Teacher!"
"So it's him! You don't need to worry about this matter. That's all."
The voice on the other end hung up.
This confused the security guard.
"Hmph, they didn't stand up for me! What a useless leader! Then I'll find someone who can!"
The security guard, feeling resentful, made another call.
"Hello, Secretary Ren, it's me! Xiao Chuang, it's like this..."
"Alright, alright, you must stand up for me!"
...
Meanwhile, Chen Jie led A Zhu inside.
A Zhu's mind was racing.
"Teacher Chen is still so handsome after all this time!"
"He doesn't even put the Wen family in his eyes, he's so cool! My legs are going weak..."
