Chapter 104: Chapter 104: If Without Apology, Off With His Head

Xiao Zheng dialed Yan Guanghui’s number.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Hello, who is this?" a lazy voice came from the other end of the line.

The corners of Xiao Zheng’s mouth curled up, and he said playfully, "It’s me, Xiao Zheng!"

Even through the phone, Xiao Zheng could feel Yan Guanghui’s embarrassment, but Yan Guanghui hid it very well.

Yan Guanghui asked in astonishment, "Sect Leader, is it really you?!"

"Yes, it’s me," Xiao Zheng said indifferently.

"Where are you? Where have you been all these years?" Yan Guanghui asked.

"I’m at a bar. Just come over and we can talk!" Xiao Zheng gave him an address and then hung up the phone.

The group found a place to sit down, and Luo Yusheng had a subordinate go get some drinks; they really started drinking there.

"Sect Leader, after you left, the split in Tianji Sect was all Yan Guanghui’s doing. He’s a very scheming person and after all these years, now he...

"Yusheng, remember one thing, if I could bring up Yan Guanghui back then, today I can just as easily bring him down. Of course, if he is still like he was before to me, naturally, I won’t suppress him."

Luo Yusheng originally wanted to remind Xiao Zheng, to tell him what Yan Guanghui had done over the years, but Xiao Zheng interrupted him.

In Xiao Zheng’s view, whether it was Luo Yusheng or Yan Guanghui, or any other forces that had split from Tianji Sect, he really didn’t think much of them.

If Yan Guanghui was still like before, Xiao Zheng wouldn’t quarrel with him about anything, but if Yan Guanghui had become arrogant, Xiao Zheng wouldn’t mind erasing this so-called 13K.

Seeing Xiao Zheng’s confident demeanor, Luo Yusheng could only hold his peace.

"Yun Tianlong isn’t bad; he could be groomed. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a young man who can fight, is willing to take risks, and values loyalty."

Xiao Zheng suddenly mentioned Yun Tianlong; indeed, during the time when Zhang Cong had called people over earlier, Yun Tianlong was pretty reliable, not acting the coward, which Xiao Zheng appreciated.

When Yun Tianlong heard Xiao Zheng mention him, he was first taken aback, then deeply moved, and quickly came forward to say, "Protecting Master Xiao is a given; our boss has always taught us that."

This statement was very profound, expressing his own humility while also praising Luo Yusheng, not getting carried away simply because he was complimented.

"It seems that Yusheng has taught well!" Xiao Zheng said with a smile.

Luo Yusheng also revealed a gratified smile; he too had high hopes for Yun Tianlong and hadn’t expected the lad could earn Xiao Zheng’s praise, which also reflected well on him.

"It’s all thanks to the Sect Leader’s excellent leadership from the beginning." Luo Yusheng also subtly praised Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng pointed at Luo Yusheng with a smile, then said nothing more.

At that moment, a commotion arose at the entrance.

Accompanied by a crowd, Yan Guanghui walked into the bar, looked around, and quickly spotted Xiao Zheng and Luo Yusheng, approaching them with a smile on his face.

Yan Guanghui, a Zhonghai local, was tall, thin, and fair-skinned, with a scholarly appearance. At first glance, anyone who didn’t know him would definitely mistake Yan Guanghui for a teacher.

"Sect Leader, when did you return?"

Yan Guanghui walked up, unabashedly took a seat, then teased Luo Yusheng, "Yo, I didn’t expect you, the coward, would dare to come to my 13K turf."

"Hmph! Yan Guanghui, with the Sect Leader here today, I don’t want to squabble with you," Luo Yusheng couldn’t be bothered with him, and besides, Xiao Zheng was the main attraction today.

Yan Guanghui chuckled, then picked up a bottle of beer and said, "Sect Leader, you didn’t even give us a heads up before coming back. The brothers could have welcomed you with a celebration!"

Since he entered, Yan Guanghui’s attitude was not arrogant but was far too casual, nowhere near what it should have been upon seeing Xiao Zheng.

In Yan Guanghui’s eyes, although Xiao Zheng had returned, the Tianji Sect had long since disbanded, and his awe for Xiao Zheng had dissipated with time.

Xiao Zheng could tell, but at least Yan Guanghui hadn’t spoken any words of disrespect.

"Bring over that hall master, what’s his name, Cong."

At Xiao Zheng’s command, Yun Tianlong personally dragged Zhang Cong over, kicking him to kneel on the ground.

Yan Guanghui’s eyes narrowed coldly as he watched Yun Tianlong and Luo Yusheng, but he didn’t say anything, his expression darkening, pondering something.

"Is this one of your people?" Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.

His tone was very polite, which disoriented Yan Guanghui, taking him back to a few years ago, before Xiao Zheng had left Zhonghai City.

"It seems he is one of yours!" Xiao Zheng chuckled, then said, "We haven’t seen each other for so many years, so today I’ll give you a big gift to celebrate our reunion."

Yan Guanghui was startled, not understanding what Xiao Zheng was playing at.

Luo Yusheng and Yun Tianlong were also at a loss. Could it be that he intended to use brotherly feelings to influence Yan Guanghui? That didn’t seem very realistic.

Luo Yusheng knew better than anyone what kind of person Yan Guanghui was. In the years when Xiao Zheng was absent, the two of them had always been at odds. The Luo Sheng Sect and 13K had been in constant conflict, and he was well aware of Yan Guanghui’s temperament.

Xiao Zheng turned and said to Yun Tianlong, "Chop off his hands for me!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Yan Guanghui’s face darkened, glaring at Xiao Zheng as if he wanted to lash out, but for some reason, he held back.

On the other hand, Luo Yusheng was inwardly overjoyed. He had long found Yan Guanghui unpleasant to the eye, and now Xiao Zheng was doing him a favor by knocking him down a peg.

"You got it!"

Zhang Cong’s previous arrogance had already annoyed Yun Tianlong. He pulled a hidden knife from his sleeve, then several underlings firmly pinned Zhang Cong’s hand down.

"Ahh!!"

With the knife falling in Yun Tianlong’s grasp, Zhang Cong let out a horrible scream as Yun Tianlong chopped off his right hand.

Yan Guanghui furrowed his brow, clenching his fists tightly. He wanted to tear Xiao Zheng and his people into pieces, but he dared not make a move openly. He silently pondered, thinking of how to retaliate against Xiao Zheng and Luo Yusheng.

Xiao Zheng kicked the severed hand away, then walked over to Zhang Cong and said coldly, "Now, can I take, that woman, away!!"

He was referring to Xiao Yufei, who was still unconscious.

It had to be said that the hall master named Zhang Cong was quite tough. Even though his hand had been chopped off, apart from an initial scream, he didn’t make a sound.

Faced with Xiao Zheng’s question, he bit down hard on his teeth, his expression fierce. He didn’t say a word, but it was clear to everyone that he was still defiant.

"I know you’re not convinced, but what can you do to me?!"

Xiao Zheng said with a cold smile, then turned to Yan Guanghui and said, "Guanghui, I’m giving you two days to come and apologize with this trash. If I don’t see you within two days, I guarantee I’ll make 13K disappear from Zhonghai!"

Having said that, Xiao Zheng took the lead and left the bar.
