Chapter 229: Chapter 229 Ren Qianzhong’s challenge letter_1

Ren Qianzhong sat on one side, without uttering a word, and unexpectedly, Li Yuancang didn’t resist at all.

Hong Zhen Ting brutally beat Li Yuancang, battering his face with blood and breaking numerous bones in his body.

"Hong Ye, I’m sorry. You are right. You saved my life. Though I have not betrayed you, if you want my life, I will die without any complaint. Li Yuancang, willingly goes to meet his death!"

Li Yuancang bore no resentment against Hong Zhen Ting. He considered his life as payment for the favor of saving his life.

"You traitorous cur, your death is well deserved!"

Hong Zhen Ting landed a few more vicious blows on Li Yuancang, who was now so badly beaten that he lay on the ground, breathing his last.

Hong Zhen Ting, like he was kicking a dead dog, gave Li Yuancang a couple more kicks. He stopped after tiring himself out a bit, sat down and lit a cigarette.

"All who betray me must die! Even if it’s my own son, he would face the same fate! But, you have some use left before you die. I’ll let you live one more day."

Hong Zhen Ting blew a ring of smoke, then immediately dialed Su Chengyu’s number.

"What’s the matter? It isn’t time to collect the antidote, is it?"

Su Chengyu feigned ignorance about Hong Zhen Ting’s detoxification.

With a triumphant smile, Hong Zhen Ting ominously said, "Antidote? I want your life! Su Chengyu, do you think that a single poison pill can control me? My poison has been cured, and it’s time for you to die."

"Alright! I’m always ready." Su Chengyu calmly replied.

"You’re quite defiant. Are you planning to run away? If you do so, Li Yuancang’s life is certainly forfeit. You wouldn’t ignore his life or death situation, would you?" Hong Zhen Ting spoke with sinister intent.

"Li Yuancang is your man; what does his life or death have to do with me?" Su Chengyu responded unchanged.

"Still denying? Li Yuancang has confessed everything! Now, he has only half a life left. How much longer he lives depends on you."

Hong Zhen Ting said coldly.

Upon hearing these words, Su Chengyu became instantly tense, "What do you want?"

"A duel at the sports arena at noon tomorrow, life or death. Do you dare to accept the challenge?" Hong Zhen Ting announced.

Su Chengyu understood Hong Zhen Ting’s intentions upon hearing this.

"So, you want to kill me to establish your power? Challenge accepted! But, you must spare Li Yuancang’s life. If he dies, I will make your life worse than death." Su Chengyu retorted coldly.

"And you dare to threaten me? Rest assured, I won’t kill Li Yuancang immediately! Once he is dead, and you flee, tracking you down will not be easy. Li Yuancang is indeed your good friend, you wouldn’t abandon him and flee alone, right?"

Hong Zhen Ting intentionally summoned Li Yuancang to test him. Once he confirmed the relationship between Li Yuancang and Su Chengyu, he forced Su Chengyu to accept the duel.

This plan had been calculated by Hong Zhen Ting far in advance.

Actually, Hong Zhen Ting underestimated Su Chengyu, there was no need for such a complicated scheme, as Su Chengyu no longer cared about Ren Qianzhong.

"Since Li Yuancang is in your hands, of course, I can’t escape. But for tomorrow’s fight, I need to confirm that Li Yuancang is still alive; otherwise, I will escape, and once I have enough power, I will come back to take revenge."

Su Chengyu had to say this in order to keep Hong Zhen Ting from killing Li Yuancang.

"To me, Li Yuancang is nothing but a dog! Killing him is not that important. You are my primary target."

Having said that, Hong Zhen Ting ended the call.

The severely wounded Li Yuancang never expected that Hong Zhen Ting’s true intention was to use him against Su Chengyu.

Even though Li Yuancang was not afraid of death, he was afraid that because of him, Su Chengyu would be implicated. He knew that if Hong Zhen Ting used him as bait, Su Chengyu would definitely take the bait.

"Hong Ye, you can kill me, I bear no grudge. I hope you can spare Su Chengyu for the sake of our many years of loyalty." Li Yuancang implored weakly.

"Loyalty? If it weren’t for your talent and usefulness to me, do you think I would have saved you in the first place? In my eyes, you are nothing but a guard dog who is of some use. Do you think you’re worthy of loyalty?"

Hong Zhen Ting heartlessly flicked his cigarette butt on Li Yuancang, sneered contemptuously, then ordered his men to take Li Yuancang away and lock him in the basement.

In the icy cold basement, Li Yuancang truly had only half a life left. Hong Zhen Ting’s words utterly chilled his heart.

"So, in his eyes, I’m just a guard dog."

Li Yuancang felt mournful and regretted getting Su Chengyu involved which added to his self-blame.

" Su Chengyu, you idiot! How could you agree to a duel with Ren Qianzhong for my sake? You will die!"

Li Yuangcang clenched his fist, pounded the ground in frustration.

At this point, he was powerless. Even if he were to die by crashing his head in here, Hong Zhen Ting could still use him as bait to force Su Chengyu to accept the duel.

In Xu Nanzhi’s bedroom, the housemaid, Xie Wanrong, came in to clean and told Xu Nanzhi, "Madam, Li Yuancang was brutally beaten by Hong Ye and has been locked in the basement."

"Li Yuancang? Why?"

Xu Nanzhi was unaware of the relationship between Su Chengyu and Li Yuancang.

Xie Wanrong relayed everything she had overheard to Xu Nanzhi. After hearing this, Xu Nanzhi started to worry.

"This is bad, Hong Zhen Ting is using Li Yuancang as bait. Su Chengyu will certainly take the challenge."

Xu Nanzhi was secretly worried. But there was nothing she could do about it, unless she could rescue Li Yuancang on her own, which obviously was beyond her capability.

Not long after, Ren Qianzhong publicly initiated a challenge, seeking a death duel with Su Chengyu, to decide who is the top martial artist in Lin Jiang.

Once the challenge was issued, it created ripples of interest throughout the city.

Using his influence, Hong Zhen Ting stirred up the excitement and widely publicized the challenge, making preparations for the battle.

Suddenly, everyone in Lin Jiang was discussing the upcoming fight.

Ren Qianzhong had reigned as the top martial artist in Lin Jiang for many years.

His position in Lin Jiang was unshakable, and nobody dared to challenge him!

The combined names of Ren Qianzhong and Hong Zhen Ting carried significant weight in Lin Jiang, nobody dared to counter them!

But now, Ren Qianzhong had initiated a challenge to Su Chengyu. This was the equivalent of Hong Zhen Ting and Ren Qianzhong joining forces to suppress Su Chengyu.

One side has the recognized top martial artist and the head of the underworld in Lin Jiang, and the other side has the rising young star of Lin Jiang. This was a battle that everyone was eagerly anticipating.

Of course, what everyone was most looking forward to now was Su Chengyu’s reply.

In many people’s eyes, although Ren Qianzhong had issued the challenge, Su Chengyu certainly wouldn’t dare to accept.

The duel with the top martial artist in Lin Jiang was tantamount to courting death!
