Chapter 542: Chapter 542 Listen to Brother

Lu Yanwu had just charged a few steps toward Qin Chuan when a strong sense of murderous intent locked onto her.

"You wretch, die!"

An angry voice suddenly echoed through the banquet hall.

As the voice let out a roar, it immediately caught everyone’s attention. Liu Xu had already rushed behind Lu Yanwu and swung a powerful punch.

"Stop!"

Liu Hanwen, who had been focusing all his attention on Lu Yanwu, was almost scared out of his wits when he saw Liu Xu attempt to kill her, and he shouted loudly.

He couldn’t care less about hiding his true strength any longer. His initial stage of King Realm burst forth. With a wave of his hand, a terrifying burst of Qi surged toward Liu Xu.

"Bang!"

To everyone’s shocked eyes, Liu Xu, as if heavily injured, vomited blood and was sent flying several meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

Meanwhile, Lu Yanwu had reached Qin Chuan and threw herself into his embrace.

She didn’t even know what had just happened.

Qin Chuan’s icy gaze briefly swept over Liu Xu, yet he didn’t make a move.

Had it not been Liu Hanwen who acted first, Liu Xu would already be a corpse.

"Miss Lu, are you all right?"

After feeling the murderous intent in Qin Chuan’s eyes, Liu Hanwen shuddered, hastily checking on Lu Yanwu.

Because of his fear, his voice trembled slightly.

Only when Lu Yanwu heard Liu Hanwen’s voice did she come to her senses. Her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, she glanced at Qin Chuan before reluctantly leaving his arms.

She looked at the obsequious Liu Hanwen with a puzzled face. What was he talking about?

Despite her confusion, she still said, "What could’ve happened to me?"

She had been so intent on leaping into Qin Chuan’s arms that she was oblivious to the fact that she had almost been killed by Liu Xu.

Seeing that Lu Yanwu was unharmed, Liu Hanwen finally breathed a sigh of relief. Worried about revealing the secret that he had acknowledged Qin Chuan as his master, he dared not express his position directly to Qin Chuan.

He quickly turned to Lu Yaosheng and said, "Family Head Lu, I am terribly sorry. I never expected my son to dare to attack Miss Lu. Please, for the sake of my father, give my son another chance."

Lu Yaosheng’s expression was extremely unsightly. He had only intended to marry Lu Yanwu to Liu Xu and had never thought of letting Liu Xu kill her.

If Lu Yanwu were truly killed, Lu Yaozong would certainly not let him off the hook.

Though infuriated, he could only suppress his anger because of fear of Liu Hanwen’s King Realm strength, and he said coldly, "Fortunately, my niece is unharmed, otherwise, your son would have to pay the price!"

Liu Hanwen hastily replied, "Family Head Lu is right, thank you!"

The group of influential figures from the Nine Gates of Yandu were now staring at Liu Hanwen with grave expressions, utterly shocked in their hearts.

Liu Hanwen had actually broken through to the King Realm. Among the Nine Gates of Yandu, there had never been such a young King Realm Strong.

Liu Hanwen was already a King Realm Strong without even assuming the post of Liu Family Patriarch. In the future Nine Gates of Yandu, which family could suppress the Liu Family?

But then, their thoughts shifted to the Murong Family, which had also gained two King Realm Strongs, though not of the main lineage, thanks to Qin Chuan’s favor that led them to a breakthrough.

And given Qin Chuan’s close relationship with Murong Mingyue, as long as Mingyue could maintain her relationship with Qin Chuan, Ling Yun and Hong Yu, the two King Realm Strongs, would not betray the Murong Family.

With this in mind, everyone’s gaze once again fell on Qin Chuan. Observing this young man, the look in everyone’s eyes was fervent.

This young man was able to casually give away two Evergreen Pills, each worth a fortune. Surely he must have more Evergreen Pills, perhaps even other elixirs.

If any family could secure this young man, wouldn’t they be able to rapidly produce a group of King Realm Strong?

In that moment, nearly every power broker from the Nine Gates of Yandu had the same idea and even began to analyze Qin Chuan.

"This young man has a costly connection with Murong Mingyue; just now, Lu Yanwu also took the initiative to throw herself into his arms. Indeed, he seems to be a romantic man who can’t resist spreading his affections."

"Since he is romantic, he is surely lustful. If the young beauties from our families approach him, perhaps we could win him over."

"If only I had known, I would have brought all the beauties of our younger generation here."

...

Because of his connections with Murong Mingyue and Lu Yanwu, everyone secretly labeled Qin Chuan as a romantic and lustful man.

"Dad, how could you hit me?"

At that moment, Liu Xu looked at Liu Hanwen in disbelief.

He had grown so much, and it was the first time Liu Hanwen had dealt him such a heavy blow. That move, which could only be performed by a King Realm Strong by solidifying qi into force, had left him severely injured.

Lately, he had been preparing for the assessment to join the Grandmaster Battle Team. It was a critical time. If his injuries didn’t heal quickly, the assessment would surely be affected.

"Slap!"

But, he didn’t receive an answer, only a heavy slap across his face.

Liu Hanwen roared, "Should I not hurt you and just watch you try to kill Miss Lu?"

That slap was delivered with full force, raising a distinct palm mark on Liu Xu’s face, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Liu Xu, resentful, said, "That bitch was already going to marry me, yet she threw herself into the arms of another man in front of so many people. How do you expect me to tolerate this?"

"Slap!"

The response was another slap, even harder than before, sending Liu Xu flying, knocking out two teeth.

The onlookers were stupefied. Had Liu Hanwen gone mad? Even if Liu Xu had acted rashly, Family Head Lu hadn’t said anything. Why was Liu Hanwen relentless, going to the extent of knocking out teeth?

Liu Xu’s mind went blank. After heavily falling to the ground, a buzzing sound filled both his ears, leaving him unable to recover his senses for a long while.

"Family Head Lu, I apologize. It’s my fault for not teaching my son well. Only today have I realized that this bastard doesn’t deserve Miss Lu at all," Liu Hanwen suddenly said with a face full of remorse to Lu Yaosheng.

"Since the engagement ceremony hasn’t taken place, let’s forget the engagement between Liu Xu and Miss Lu."

"From now on, I assure you that Liu Xu will stay far away from Miss Lu. If he dares to harass her again, I will break his dog legs," he added.

Then, turning to Lu Yanwu, under the shocked gaze of everyone around, he actually bowed ninety degrees to her. With a sincere face, he said, "The fault lies with the father for an untaught child. Liu Xu ended up this way all because of me. I have already beaten this beast. If Miss Lu is not satisfied, just say the word, and whether you want to kill or maim him, your wish is my command, even if it means allowing Miss Lu to kill this beast."

Lu Yanwu was completely stunned. Suddenly, she began to wonder if Liu Hanwen had practiced himself into idiocy. Otherwise, why would he say such a thing?

The key point was that the top tycoons of the Nine Gates were all present, and his actions clearly disregarded the face of the Liu Family.

He was clearly a King Realm Strong, yet his actions resembled bowing and scraping submissively, something was definitely off.

Not only Lu Yanwu, but the other guests also sensed that something was amiss.

"I will listen to Brother Qin," stated Lu Yanwu suddenly, looking adoringly at Qin Chuan.

In an instant, everyone’s gaze shifted to Qin Chuan. Liu Hanwen’s body shuddered violently, and he looked at Qin Chuan apprehensively, his forehead covered in cold sweat.
