Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 609: Angry
"You want me to kneel? Are you joking with me?" Yu Ou said sternly.
Murong Yeyun actually wanted him to kneel; how could he possibly do such a thing?
"If your father still wants to continue in the Hua City military, you must kneel!" Murong Yeyun said with a mocking smile, and then slowly pulled up a chair and sat down, looking nonchalant.
"You!" Yu Ou glared furiously. Was Murong Yeyun actually blackmailing him with his father's position?
The countenance of Yu Xiatang was also ugly. He knew that if Murong Yeyun really wanted to deal with him, indeed, just a phone call would suffice to oust him.
"It seems you are unwilling," Murong Yeyun said as he took out his phone, pretending to make a call.
"I'll kneel!" Yu Ou said grimly. His father had just been promoted and was at a time to flourish. Stepping down now would undoubtedly be a huge loss for the Yu family.
Yu Ou did not want his family to suffer because of him. He was not afraid of death, nor of Murong Yeyun, but he could not disregard the safety of his family.
As he spoke, Yu Ou was about to kneel, but just then, a large hand grabbed him.
"Dad." Yu Ou looked at Yu Xiatang in astonishment.
Yu Xiatang smiled softly. "I've always told you that a man's knees are coated in gold; have you forgotten?"
Seeing this, Murong Yeyun's face turned cold. He hadn't expected Yu Xiatang to intervene. Immediately, a sinister smile appeared on his face. These guys really infuriated him.
"But the family..." Yu Ou hesitated to say.
"I don't know about other families, but our Yu Family has always valued honor over survival. If you kneel now, our family's honor will be lost forever."
"Clap clap clap." At that moment, applause rang through the room.
Murong Yeyun smiled sarcastically, "Homage over survival, does that mean you refuse to kneel?"
"Young Master, you jest. Our Yu Family has only ghosts who died in battle, never people who submit by kneeling; after all, not everyone is content to be a dog, are they?" Yu Xiatang said with a gleeful smile, keeping his tone neither servile nor overbearing. As he spoke, he purposefully glanced at Yu Zhixun beside Murong Yeyun, his look loaded with meaning.
"You!" Yu Zhixun was fuming, clearly understanding that Yu Xiatang was insulting him.
"No kneelers? I beg to differ!" Murong Yeyun said meaningfully, and then chuckled, "In my presence, Murong Yeyun, be it human or ghost, if I demand they kneel, they must kneel!"
"Make those two kneel for me!" Murong Yeyun then suddenly pointed at Yu Xiatang and his son, instructing a burly man beside him.
The man was eight feet tall, his body covered in bizarre tattoos resembling some kind of cursed runes.
His torso bare, a bronze mask covered his face, making his appearance somewhat sinister.
Clearly, this fellow was also a martial artist; being a bodyguard of Murong Yeyun, his strength naturally wasn't inferior.
He directly moved towards Yu Xiatang and his son, attempting to forcibly make them kneel.
Understanding the man's intent, both Yu Xiatang and Yu Ou reacted before the masked man could get close—Yu Xiatang with a sweeping kick aimed at his face, a kick potent enough to easily penetrate iron plates.
Yu Ou wasn't idle either; a right hook punched towards the masked man's face.
But when Yu Xiatang and his son struck, the masked man didn't move an inch, allowing their fists and kicks to land on his face, looking completely relaxed.
"What?" Seeing their combined effort fail to harm the masked man shocked both Yu Xiatang and Yu Ou.
At that moment, the masked man suddenly counterattacked, throwing a punch each to the left and right, hammering Yu Xiatang and his son to the ground instantaneously.
Meanwhile, Ye Nan, locked in a nearby prison, saw this scene and his face instantly turned frosty, his eyes glittering with a murderous intent.
Seeing the masked man easily topple Yu Xiatang and Yu Ou, Yu Zhixun couldn't help but sneer venomously. Yu Xiatang called him Murong Yeyun's dog, and he was right. But what of it? When siding with the right master, he needn't suffer as Yu Xiatang was now under Murong Yeyun's beatings.
Without strength, there is no dignity—in Yu Zhixun's view, it was as simple as that.
Thus, he would rather live like a dog than die stubborn like Yu Xiatang.
It wasn't that Yu Zhixun's way of surviving was wrong; after all, a hundred people have a hundred ways of living, but ultimately, it still lacked backbone.
Yu Xiatang and his son were pinned to the ground by the masked man, their shoulders held down. No matter how they struggled, they couldn't break free from the masked man's grip.
The opponent was stronger than them by more than one level.
Seeing this, Murong Yeyun laughed heartily in satisfaction, "Yu Xiatang, look, aren't you kneeling after all?"
"Yes, I have knelt down, but that does not mean I will submit! Our Yu Family will never surrender!" Yu Xiatang shouted loudly, remaining neither servile nor overbearing.
Although Murong Yeyun forced them to kneel, this did not mean they were afraid of him.
Hearing this, Murong Yeyun also smiled weirdly, "Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"

Yu Zhixun was shocked at these words, but then he started to feel a faint sense of anticipation, because if Yu Xiatang were to die, then he would take charge of the Yu Family and become the future Family Head.
Yu Xiatang chuckled and said, "Murong Yeyun, although you hold a high status and can dictate our fates, don't forget, I am a government official. Do you think you can just kill a government official as you please? If you aren't afraid of being held accountable, you might as well try!"
Although Yu Xiatang was a rough man, he was not stupid. He knew that it would not be easy for Murong Yeyun to kill them. If he really did that, although there would be no consequences, it would surely lead to dissatisfaction among the higher-ups, which would be counterproductive.
"You're right, I indeed don't dare to kill you!" Murong Yeyun smiled weirdly, and then abruptly slapped Yu Xiatang across the face, making Yu Xiatang spit blood. "But I still dare to hit you."
"Dad!" Yu Ou was enraged at seeing Yu Xiatang hit, and his eyes glared threateningly at Murong Yeyun.
"Don't look at me like that, you can't do anything to me anyway. Your gaze is really annoying to me, and if you continue staring at me like that, I can't guarantee that I won't leave you crippled," said Murong Yeyun as he smiled and walked towards Yu Ou, gripping his arm as if he was about to do something.
But Yu Ou still did not submit, continuing to glare coldly at Murong Yeyun, and didn't take his threat to heart.
"You're forcing my hand!" Murong Yeyun sneered, ready to make his move.
"Clang..."
But just as Murong Yeyun was about to act against Yu Ou, a sharp and strange metallic sound came from behind him.
Everyone looked astounded toward the sound, only to see Hao Jian with a somber expression standing by the iron bars, his hands grasping the steel fence, directly tearing it open.
Hao Jian's eyes were dark as ink, but now they shot forth angry flames, glaring coldly at Murong Yeyun with a clear warning in his gaze.
Clearly, Murong Yeyun's repeated humiliation of Yu Xiatang and his son had also angered him.
If Murong Yeyun continued, Hao Jian couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't kill him.
"Oh dear, someone seems to be angry!" Seeing Hao Jian destroy the iron bars, Murong Yeyun immediately showed a surprised expression and reluctantly shook his head, "Well, it seems I have to stop here."
He didn't dare to continue provoking Hao Jian, lest he really become desperate.
At this moment, the masked man began to truly acknowledge Hao Jian, his eyes showing surprise and deep interest.
And just then, an attendant came from outside, whispering a few words into Murong Yeyun's ear.
Following that, Murong Yeyun became visibly excited, smiling at Hao Jian, "Hao Jian, I have some bad news for you. My adorable sister has been grounded by our grandfather, and now no one can save you."
"I never thought about asking her for help, and she isn't my only friend," Hao Jian said with a smile.
"Oh? Is that so? Then why don't I see your friends coming to rescue you at this critical moment?" Murong Yeyun asked sarcastically.
"Who said there aren't any?"
As soon as the words fell, a chilly female voice came from outside.
Everyone turned sideways to look, only to see a gorgeous voluptuous woman walking in, wearing a shirt and a short skirt, her hair pinned up, surpassing all in beauty.
The newcomer was none other than Guo Shuxian.
"Oh, isn't this Miss Guo? You should be comfortably in your city hall office, so what are you doing here?" Murong Yeyun eyed Guo Shuxian displeasedly.
Although Murong Yeyun knew about some contact between Guo Shuxian and Hao Jian, he hadn't expected that she would risk offending the Murong Family to rescue Hao Jian.
Hao Jian was also surprised and deeply touched, as not many dared to oppose the Murong Family, and he hadn't expected to hold such a high place in Guo Shuxian's heart.
"Young Master Murong, that's something I should be asking you. Why aren't you staying in the comfort of the Capital City, coming to our remote and poor place instead?" Guo Shuxian responded neither servile nor overbearing.
"Me? I'm here naturally to address your negligence at work," Murong Yeyun shamelessly said.
"My negligence at work? May I ask where I have been negligent?" Guo Shuxian scoffed repeatedly, as what Murong Yeyun said was completely nonsensical.
