Chapter 725: 725
As the two were about to break off talks, the elder hurriedly stepped forward, placing himself between them.
"Young brother, please don’t be angry," he said.
After speaking, he turned to look at Ao Ziye.
"Young master, don’t rush to conclusions before things are clear to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings," he advised.
Hearing the elder’s advice, Ao Ziye realized that he had been somewhat impatient.
He took a deep breath to calm himself and then looked at Zhou Yu with a smile:
"Brother, it’s just a joke. Don’t take it seriously."
"Ao Ziyang and I are family, and since you know my cousin, that makes us family too."
"How about this, let’s say I, Ao Ziye, owe you a favor. Let’s spare Vice-President Zhou for now."
Zhou Yu raised an eyebrow.
"Alright, have him kneel and apologize to my sister Xue. If she forgives him, I can let him go too," he said.
Upon hearing this, Vice-President Zhou, despite the intense pain, shouted angrily:
"In your dreams!"
As the esteemed Vice-President of Red Leaf Villa, kneeling to apologize was worse than death to him.
That was an impossibility.
Malice flickered in Vice-President Zhou’s eyes as he turned to Ao Ziye and said,
"Young Master Ao, Miss Ye from Red Leaf Villa will be here soon. If you can help me cripple this youngster, I will make sure to speak highly of you in front of Miss Ye."
Vice-President Zhou understood these family scions all too well.
Their minds were filled with thoughts of grabbing power and profits daily.
And to fight for power and profits, one must consider whose influence was greatest.
Unquestionably, the Ye Family of Capital City was among the factions these scions were most eager to associate with.
Many scions came to Red Leaf Villa when they had nothing else to do.
Partly for vacation and partly hoping to run into someone from Capital City’s Ye Family by chance.
Sure enough, upon hearing Vice-President Zhou’s words, Ao Ziye’s eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.
"Vice-President Zhou, are you for real?" he asked.
"Is Miss Ye Mengyun really coming?"
Ah, Ye Mengyun.
She was famous throughout Capital City and even beyond.
Not only was she the favorite granddaughter of Ye Zhongshan from the Ye Family and a martial arts prodigy, but she had also stepped into the Innate at a young age with the potential to advance to the Saint Realm in the future without any issue.
Moreover, she was as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal.
Her attributes were nearly maxed out.
She was the dream girl of almost all the scions.
If he had a chance to get acquainted with Ye Mengyun today, it would mean that he could completely lead over all the others in the younger generation of his family.
Even better, if their relationship could progress further, then the position of the Family Head of the Ao Family would undoubtedly belong to him.
This was like a pie falling from the sky.
Heaven was also helping him.
Ao Ziye’s heart was about to burst with excitement.
His gaze towards Zhou Yu changed once again.
Compared to Ye Mengyun, subduing Zhou Yu meant nothing.
He immediately changed his tone, commanding,
"Boy, I’ll give you three seconds to kneel down and apologize to Vice-President Zhou, or else don’t blame me for being rude!"
The elder, who knew Ao Ziye too well, understood his excitement.
He sighed internally, thinking that the young master was still too naive.
Let alone whether Vice-President Zhou could converse meaningfully with Ye Mengyun, even if he could, it was still uncertain how effective that would be.
Considering Vice-President Zhou’s current pitiful state, the elder suspected he was just an insignificant character to Ye Mengyun.
And this young man, if able to be subdued, would be immeasurably beneficial.
The elder pulled Ao Ziye aside and whispered:
"Young master, please reconsider this matter!"
"That vice-president, I’m afraid..."
Before the elder could finish, Ao Ziye interrupted.
"Elder, no need to say more. I know you think highly of this young man, but this matter concerns Miss Ye Mengyun’s favor towards me; I can’t take any risks," he declared.
"It’s settled."
The elder’s face showed helplessness, and he shook his head and sighed. He couldn’t openly argue with Ao Ziye, so he didn’t say anything more.
At that moment, Ao Ziye’s gaze returned to Zhou Yu. Seeing that Zhou Yu remained indifferent, Ao Ziye said coldly,
"Boy, it seems you are determined to seek death. Don’t blame me for being ruthless."
"Elder, cripple him," he ordered.
Although the elder had a good impression of Zhou Yu, he was, after all, a member of the Ao Family and couldn’t aid someone else against his own young master.
The elder looked at Zhou Yu and said indifferently:
"Young man, apologize."
Zhou Yu’s eyes narrowed, a gleam of combativeness flashing through them.
"Let’s see what you’re capable of," he said.
With that, Zhou Yu took the initiative to attack, moving with the steps of "Mountain and River", and appeared ghost-like before the elder.
Enhanced by the Eight Desolations Fist, he threw a punch.
He wanted to test the old man’s limits.
The elder appeared very calm, merely stepping back slightly to evade most of the force from Zhou Yu’s punch, then coolly countered with a punch of his own.
Bang!
Zhou Yu’s form was sent flying.
In mid-air, Zhou Yu twisted his body to dissipate the elder’s force, then landed on the ground.
Upon landing, Zhou Yu’s view of the elder changed.
That punch, delivered without any special techniques, had effortlessly broken through his Eight Desolations Fist.
Even Qu Yaowu or Mr. Yan needed to deploy the "Reach to Heaven" fist technique to block such a punch.
This old man was indeed extraordinary.
Zhou Yu’s eyes deepened, just as he was about to make another move.
But at that moment, a guard from the villa hurried over.
"Vice-President Zhou, the car of CEO Li has just entered the villa’s gate..."
Upon hearing this, Vice-President Zhou exclaimed excitedly:
"It’s Miss Ye."
"CEO Li has brought her back."
With that, he looked at Zhou Yu and sneered:
"Kid, your time to die has come!!!"
