Chapter 1135: Chapter 1136: The Drunkard’s Intent

Sun Yiyi retracted her hands, and the two gleaming daggers vanished without a trace. Puffing out her chest, she chuckled, “So even the experts of the Lian Family are just so-so. I’m just a mere woman of the Su Family, and you couldn’t even handle me.”

The expert from the Lian Family’s face turned ghastly. As an expert of the Lian Family, not being able to easily handle someone from a local family, and nearly being at a disadvantage, especially when the opponent was a woman, was utterly humiliating for him.

The expressions of the other Lian Family members changed as well. They hadn’t anticipated such a situation. Even if they believed Song Xiaodong, as the Family Head, had some ability, he couldn’t possibly compare to their top experts, let alone a woman who seemed to appear from nowhere.

Lian Qianqiu sneered, “No wonder you, Song Xiaodong, dared to touch my Lian Family members. You really have some skill.”

“You’re too kind,” Song Xiaodong responded indifferently.

Lian Qianqiu’s smile suddenly vanished, “Do you think that with such strength, your Su Family can withstand our Lian Family?”

Song Xiaodong, with his hands clasped behind his back, replied, “My Su Family has never thought of opposing any significant family. I only know one thing: if anyone dares to touch a member of my Su Family, they must have my consent. More so, if someone dares to touch my wife, I will never rest until I settle things with them, no matter their background or family lineage.”

“Ha…” Lian Qianqiu laughed loudly, but his face was extremely hideous, “I never expected it—now even the head of a local family dares to have such courage and spirit. Since today, the Lian Family is at your Su Family, if you don’t give me an explanation for my son, I will not rest either.”

“Indeed, you insulted my wife first, and now you’ve barged into my Su Family, injuring my people. This debt, I will definitely settle with you.”

Lian Qianqiu snorted coldly, “Take them down.”

This time, following Lian Qianqiu’s command, it wasn’t just one person who leapt forward, but six people sprang into action, rushing directly toward Song Xiaodong and his companions.

Song Xiaodong laughed loudly, then shouted in a voice booming like spring thunder, “Leave not one!”

Sun Yiyi, Dragon Six, Dragon Seven, joined by Su Zhentian, all charged forth, along with Shen Ning and Xu Hao.

Earlier, he had already noticed that aside from the expert who had acted, there was only one top-level expert, but that person stood beside Lian Qianqiu without making a move.

As for the others, some were comparable to Su Zhentian, and some were even weaker, providing Shen Ning and Xu Hao with a chance to gain experience.

Thus, Song Xiaodong didn’t intervene but directly allowed them to handle it.

The two groups of sixteen immediately engaged in combat, creating an intensely lively scene.

Lian Qianqiu’s face grew even more unsightly, as a thought involuntarily crossed his mind: Is this still a local family? With such strength, they wouldn’t be considered weak even in Beijing. Some families in the Beijing Families don’t even possess this kind of power.

No wonder the Zhou Family suffered a great loss here. Lian Qiang wasn’t aware of the Zhou Family’s defeat, but Lian Qianqiu knew some details. At that time, he didn’t consider it significant, thinking the Zhou Family’s strength was indeed too weak, losing face for the Beijing Families.

Now he realized, the Su Family’s strength was really formidable. His arrival here was quite reckless, and if he didn’t handle the Su Family, the Lian Family would suffer a significant embarrassment.

He glanced at the expert beside him, who was among the top three in the Lian Family. Initially, having him there gave Lian Qianqiu absolute confidence, but now even that confidence wavered.

Song Xiaodong paid no heed to the battle over there but directly approached Lian Qianqiu with his hands clasped behind his back, “Do you still think you can handle our Su Family now?”

Lian Qianqiu wore a stern face, “Boy, even if your family has some strength, it’s still incomparable to our Lian Family. As long as our Lian Family wants to deal with you, there’s more than one way to fight you.”

“Are you considering using official power?” Song Xiaodong sneered.

“Boy, so you know about that, huh? I thought you were clueless,” Lian Qianqiu looked at Song Xiaodong with disdain.

Song Xiaodong replied calmly, “Go ahead and try. I want to see how your Lian Family abuses its power.”

Lian Qianqiu snorted, “I believe you should be well aware that I will have all officials related to your Su Family removed one by one. Without official support, do you think your Su Family can still be called a family?”

Song Xiaodong smiled lightly, “All right, feel free to try. The officials from our Su Family, they serve upright and honorably now.”

“Upright and honorable… haha…” Lian Qianqiu laughed heartily, “That’s a huge joke. Your Su Family spent significant resources training these people, and they can act upright? Then why train them at all?”

“Of course, unlike your Lian Family, training them just to serve your family.”

“You really speak so nobly. As the head of a family, do you think saying such things will make your Su Family members respect you?” Lian Qianqiu’s disdain deepened.

Song Xiaodong smiled lightly, “Whether they respect me or not, they must respect me now.”

At this point, Song Xiaodong took a sudden step forward and reached out to grab Lian Qianqiu’s arm.

“How bold!” the man standing next to Lian Qianqiu shouted, attacking Song Xiaodong directly. His skill was extremely advanced, hardly any less than Miyagi Akihito.

Forced to retreat a step, Song Xiaodong then found himself pressured further, fending off the relentless attacks.

Lian Qianqiu shouted loudly, “Third Master, capture him.”

“Alright!” The man called Third Master intensified his offensive, seemingly unwilling to stop until he captured Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong was forced to retreat repeatedly, caught only defending and unable to strike back. This made the Su Family’s members extremely nervous, as Song Xiaodong was their backbone. If Song Xiaodong fell, the Su Family would be finished.

Lian Family members were all excited; if they subdued Song Xiaodong, the Su Family would be leaderless, soon resolving the matter. They all guarded against Su Family reinforcements, leaving Lian Qianqiu isolated, unaware of the significant danger it posed.
