Extraordinary Soldier King in the City
Chapter 1619: Holding One’s Head High
"Then I must thank you, Mr. Zhuge!"
The Great Elder clasped his fists together, then shifted his gaze slightly as he cautiously asked, "Um, Mr. Zhuge, I wonder when the Zhuge Family will act to eradicate the Chen Family and help our Tie Sect exact revenge?"
"This is not urgent for now. The current situation is unique, and even our Zhuge Family cannot act rashly; otherwise, it would jeopardize the plan we’ve prepared for many years. Just wait a bit longer, and when the time comes, our Zhuge Family will naturally help you seek revenge. Don’t worry, the Chen Family is but a minor concern, and whenever we want to squash it, it’s as easy as crushing an insect. Right now, it’s just like a grasshopper after autumn; let it jump around a few more days!"
Zhuge Wenqing lightly shook his White Feather Fan and said calmly.
"More waiting?"
The Great Elder’s face shifted, showing some disappointment.
After all, he was holding a belly full of anger.
And so was the Tie Sect.
Although people say a gentleman’s revenge is never too late after ten years,
that is an extremely powerless statement.
If one has the ability, who wants to wait ten years for revenge?
Avenging a wrong immediately is the most satisfying thing.
But now.
Zhuge Wenqing claimed that the Zhuge Family cannot act conveniently and must wait longer.
This left the Great Elder somewhat displeased.
If that’s the case, what’s the point of aligning the Tie Sect with the Zhuge Family?
Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
"Exactly, we must wait. We’ve reached a critical moment now. Our Zhuge Family prepared a full decade just for this plan to succeed. At such a critical junction, we cannot act without caution. A mishap would waste ten years of groundwork and efforts entirely. So, we must endure this period and wait. Your Tie Sect should be patient a little longer; rest assured, once our plan succeeds, no one from the Chen Family will escape. You’ll decide how they die!"
Zhuge Wenqing explained.
"Pardon my boldness, but can you tell us what this Zhuge Family’s plan entails?"
The Great Elder frowned slightly and asked tentatively.
"This can indeed be revealed to you since you’ll be involved when the time comes. However, this matter is highly confidential and inconvenient for too many people to know given the current situation. I’ll tell you privately when no one’s around!"
Zhuge Wenqing shook the fan gently, speaking softly.
"Alright!"
The Great Elder nodded.
"Regarding revenge, rest assured, our Zhuge Family values integrity highly. Besides, it’s a simple task for us; you don’t doubt we might renege on our promise, do you?"
Zhuge Wenqing smiled and asked the Great Elder.
"No, no, no, definitely not. I trust the credibility of the Zhuge Family and would not worry about any breach of promises!"
The Great Elder quickly waved his hands, shaking his head.
Frankly, he thought to himself.
Even if the Zhuge Family did renege, so what?
Could we, the Tie Sect, possibly attack you?
With that thought.
The Great Elder felt a bit helpless inside.
No choice but to follow the Zhuge Family’s lead.
Expecting them to listen to us is evidently impossible.
Everything rests in fate!
"Very well then. If there’s nothing else, continue tidying up. The headquarters of a renowned Ancient Martial Sect can’t remain in ruins forever. Go ahead with cleaning up; I’ll be heading back to report this situation to the family!"
Zhuge Wenqing shook the fan, smiling lightly.
"Mr. Zhuge, there’s something I’d like your advice on. Earlier, in negotiating with the Chen Family, I agreed to offer some compensation. Should I proceed with this compensation?"
The Great Elder asked Zhuge Wenqing.
"Give it to them for now to stabilize them and not raise suspicion. These things will ultimately return to you. Once our Zhuge Family finds the chance to help eradicate the Chen Family, you’ll not only reclaim the compensation but gain much more. Rest assured!"
Zhuge Wenqing smiled gently.
"Alright then!"
The Great Elder nodded quickly, bowed with respect, and said, "I’ll see Mr. Zhuge out!"
"Mm!"
Zhuge Wenqing gently waved his fan and turned to leave.
After Zhuge Wenqing left,
The Great Elder let out a long breath, looked up at the sky, clenching his fist, and murmured, "Little Han, though I don’t know how you connected with the Zhuge Family, I am grateful on behalf of the Tie Sect. With the Zhuge Family, our chance of revenge looks promising. Rest assured, your blood debt will be avenged, and this time, the Chen Family is doomed!!!"
...
Coastal, Chen Family.
Currently, the Chen Family headquarters is in celebration.
This precious victory allowed everyone in the Chen Family to proudly express themselves.
Previously, the newly-formed Chen Family had little reputation in the Ancient Martial World, attracting contempt and being bullied by various Ancient Martial forces.
They never took the Chen Family seriously.
Including the Tie Sect.
But this time,
The Chen Family, through action and strength, showed the Ancient Martial World.
The Chen Family is not just a newly-established weakling to be bullied around.
The Chen Family doesn’t create trouble but definitely doesn’t fear it.
Those who dare provoke and bully the Chen Family will face dire consequences!
The Tie Sect is a living example.
A formidable secondary sect was forcefully defeated by the Chen Family.
Perhaps, from now on, even those top-tier groups would have to officially recognize the Chen Family.
Chen Family headquarters, banquet hall.
The hall is bustling with excitement.
The Chen Family’s high-level figures and powerful warriors have gathered.
They are celebrating this precious victory.
Bear in mind.
Before this battle,
Even insiders questioned it.
Even Mu Dongcheng.
Didn’t believe the Chen Family could prevail.
He had even prepared for the worst.
Yet.
The Chen Family conquered.
Led by Chen Feng, the Chen Family champions once again worked miracles.
A miracle that seemed impossible.
This is Chen Feng, the legendary man.
At this moment.
Everyone’s gaze focused on Chen Feng, looking up at him with nothing but reverence.
Because this legendary man, the pillar of the Chen Family,
Once more led them into a splendid turnaround.
Thus, in their minds,
Chen Feng is akin to a God, an irreplaceable deity!
