Chapter 273: Chapter 273: Is Su Chengyu Your Father? _1
Hou Hongyu struck with incredible force, his energy cascaded like a rainbow, even more fierce than the palm of the Black Crow. The power of a Fifth Grade Master was indeed not to be underestimated.
Su Chengyu stood there without flinching while Stone Sword Edge intervened.
Stone Sword Edge intercepted Hou Hongyu’s attack with a hard punch, blocking him completely.
Retreating two steps, Hou Hongyu furrowed his brows, "What is the meaning of this, Grand Marshal?"
Typically, the Dragon Soul would not intervene in disputes between martial artists that didn’t involve commoners.
"Master Hou, this is Lin Jiang, not Jiangyang, and certainly not your Hou family’s backyard. You can’t bully people here." Stone Sword Edge coldly retorted.
"Su Chengyu has already injured my family’s direct descendant, and he just disrespected me. It’s only natural for me to strike back. You, the Grand Marshal, obstructed me out of nowhere. Are you taking Su Chengyu’s side?"
Hou Hongyu coldly retorted.
"Yes, that’s right! I won’t let you harm a single hair on his head. As long as we are in Lin Jiang and I have the strength, no one will harm him. To hurt Su Chengyu, you’ll have to get past me first."
In order to openly protect Su Chengyu, Stone Sword Edge had been forced to openly gamble with his own future.
If anything happened to Su Chengyu, he would undoubtedly lose his position as the Grand Marshal.
Those who Su Chengyu had offended were all powerful individuals. Stone Sword Edge wasn’t afraid of the Hou family or the Cai fist door as he was the Dragon Soul Grand Marshal, they wouldn’t dare to touch him.
However, the Black Dragon Commerce Association was a different story, it was said that Zhao Tai’an, the fourth head of the Black Dragon Commerce Association in Jiangdong province, had considerable ties with the Grand Airspace Officer of the Dragon Soul in Jiangdong.
If the Black Dragon Commerce Association wanted to take action against him, they would definitely succeed.
Upon hearing this, Hou Hongyu was surprised. He thought he knew Stone Sword Edge well, he was always a cunning and greedy person. He couldn’t see why Stone Sword Edge would protect Su Chengyu so staunchly—unless Su Chengyu was his biological father.
"Grand Marshal, are you joking with me? Do you want to fall out with my Hou family for the sake of this kid? Is Su Chengyu your biological father or your biological son?" Hou Hongyu asked with a gloomy face.
"Are your ears defective, or is your brain defective? Didn’t you hear what I just said clearly? As long as I’m here, don’t even think about touching Mr. Su."
Stone Sword Edge stepped forward, his imposing manner was not lost, and he had changed the address to Mr. Su, highlighting Su Chengyu’s status even more.
With a cold and gloomy look on his face, Hou Hongyu clenched his fists and seethed with rage. There was really nothing he could do if Stone Sword Edge was determined to protect Su Chengyu. He had no choice but to give up for now.
"Stone Sword Edge might be able to protect you for a while but he can’t protect you forever, Su Chengyu. I swear I will take your life sooner or later!"
After saying this, Hou Hongyu left in a huff and the audience cheered.
Killing the Fourth Level Master of the Black Dragon Commerce Association, Black Crow, and publicly defying the Fifth Grade Master Hou Hongyu, Su Chengyu’s prestige once again soared, gaining widespread respect and admiration.
"Uncle Yu, are we just going to let this go?" Back in the car, Hou Kexin asked unwillingly.
"What else can we do? Didn’t you see Stone Sword Edge shielding Su Chengyu?"
Hou Hongyu had a gloomy face, and he was so angry that he was spitting nails. He had thought that he could take advantage of the situation and kill Su Chengyu. But to his surprise, Stone Sword Edge, who was always known for his cunning and greed, protected Su Chengyu.
"However, this matter is not over yet. Since Stone Sword Edge has interfered, I will make sure he doesn’t end up well." Hou Hongyu schemed.
"But he is the Grand Marshal of the Dragon Soul. Who in Lin Jiang can touch him?" Hou Kexin retorted.
"No one in Lin Jiang can touch him, of course! It seems that it was not Su Chengyu who killed the Black Crow, but Stone Sword Edge. This is an opportunity for us to exploit. If this news reaches the Black Dragon Commerce Association, they will not let him get away with it, I assure you!"
Hou Hongyu, with his scheming mind, said, "In the eyes of the Black Dragon Commerce Association, Stone Sword Edge, the Grand Marshal, is nothing but a pawn. Let’s wait and see the drama unfold."
Hou Hongyu immediately took out his phone to call and report the news back to the Hou family, instructing them to leak the news to the Black Dragon Commerce Association.
Su Chengyu stepped into Stone Sword Edge’s car and they left together. Zeng Yifan and Li Yuancang went back to their respective homes.
Su Chengyu was quite satisfied with Stone Sword Edge’s performance today. Although he was cunning and self-interested, he was useful to Su Chengyu at the moment.
"Grand Marshal was very assertive today. Aren’t you afraid of offending the Hou family and the Black Dragon Commerce Association?" said Su Chengyu with a light tone in the car.
"Mr. Su, you are a smart person. You see through my little intrigues, don’t you?" Stone Sword Edge responded while driving.
The Grand Marshal was playing driver, this level of prestige was something only Su Chengyu could enjoy in Lin Jiang.
"I don’t like crafty, profit-driven people. Even if you’ve helped me, I won’t give you much advantage in the future. At least, you can’t compare to Zeng Yifan."
Although Su Chengyu spoke bluntly, he did not like Stone Sword Edge’s shrewdness. If he wasn’t currently short on strength and needing to use Stone Sword Edge, he would never make any deals with him.
Stone Sword Edge was betting on his future, which was something Su Chengyu could understand. Stone Sword Edge’s martial arts career was almost at an end, at most he could become a sixth-grade master, and his position had no potential to rise further.
In a few years, he might not even be able to keep his Grand Marshal position. But Su Chengyu was a cultivator, this temptation was enormous enough for Stone Sword Edge to take the risk.
In this aspect, he was rather daring.
"Of course, I understand. Chance is something that if missed, will be lost forever. But now, by helping you unreservedly, I believe given your nature, you will not turn a blind eye and will share some benefits in the future. A cultivator’s reward will always exceed everything I have right now."
Seeing Su Chengyu being straightforward, Stone Sword Edge also decided to be frank with him.
Stone Sword Edge had encountered countless people and firmly believed that Su Chengyu was incredibly loyal and valued righteousness.
"It seems that the Grand Marshal is also a smart man. You calculated that quite well. I need to retreat and meditate for two days. Thinking about it, I believe the Dragon Soul department is the safest place. For these two days, you must ensure that no one disturbs me. Also, you must protect my friends and family."
Su Chengyu was not shy with Stone Sword Edge, as long as he still had power, he would try to use him as much as possible.
"No problem, I can assure you that. But I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold onto the position of the Grand Marshal for much longer. Mr. Su, you should try to prepare more trump cards for yourself as the Black Dragon Commerce Association will not let this slide."
The car entered the Dragon Soul department and Stone Sword Edge arranged a safe room for Su Chengyu. Before Su Chengyu started his retreat, he made a few calls and after ensuring that every matter had been properly arranged, he began his retreat.
The elixir gathered from this time’s alchemy was plentiful and even exceeded his expectations. Therefore, he needed to retreat for a while to fully absorb the elixir.
