Chapter 1179: Chapter 1179: Trouble Cos Knocking
"That’s right, seeking peace is currently the safest and most practical thod. Our Chen Family must concede to that Ancient Martial force to continue surviving!"
"I support peace, wholeheartedly agreeing. It’s the most suitable solution thus far!"
"Yes, I also support peace. At worst, we’ll concede so interests to that Ancient Martial force, which is better than being wiped out directly."
...
For a mont, most of the high-level mbers voiced their opinions one after another.
And their ideas were largely unified.
They suggested seeking peace with the Beijing Zhao Family.
In their view, this would at least guarantee that the Chen Family wouldn’t be destroyed by the Zhao Family.
Of course, the most crucial point was that, as top managent, they could also ensure their own safety.
Up to this point,
It was the most appropriate, most secure, and least risky thod.
Therefore, most of the top managent agreed.
However, when Mu Dongcheng heard the words of these upper echelons, his face instantly turned gloomy.
He slapped the table, stood up from his seat, glaring angrily at the senior mbers present, and shouted, "Do you have any backbone left?"
The senior mbers were imdiately taken aback by Mu Dongcheng’s sudden outburst of anger.
"Uh, what did we do?"
One of the senior mbers asked in confusion.
"What did you do? You tell ! The Beijing Zhao Family killed the Patriarch of our Chen Family, an irreconcilable vendetta, and you? Not only do you not think of revenge, but you even consider making peace. Where’s your backbone? Are you n or not? Are you mbers of the Chen Family?"
Mu Dongcheng glared at that senior mber and yelled furiously.
"It’s because we are mbers of the Chen Family, and we are thinking for the Chen Family’s sake. We’re suggesting this thod as a last resort. Isn’t seeking peace the best solution now?"
That senior mber muttered with so grievance.
"Bullshit! You’re talking nonsense!"
The usually gentle and polite Mu Dongcheng was so angry at this mont that he directly cursed.
He glared fiercely at that senior mber and said coldly, "You’re talking nonsense. Conceding to the enemy is the best solution? Are you a man or not? Where’s your courage? Are you even a real man?"
"How am I not a real man? If we resist stubbornly, the Chen Family is dood, but seeking peace gives us a chance to survive. I’m doing this for the Chen Family!"
The senior mber said with great grievance.
"Ha, for the Chen Family, you say? To make peace and surrender to an enemy who killed the head of the Chen Family, that’s your idea for the Chen Family? Stop giving
reasons and excuses, you coward!"
Mu Dongcheng sneered coldly and scolded angrily.
At this mont, Mu Dongcheng was genuinely angry.
After all, the relationship between the Zhao Family and the Chen Family was already like water and fire.
Never mind that the Zhao Family killed Chen Feng.
Even if the Zhao Family hadn’t killed Chen Feng,
The Chen Family could never concede to the Zhao Family.
Moreover,
The Chen Family’s Patriarch, Chen Feng, was fallen at the hands of the Zhao Family.
This blood feud could never be softened towards the Zhao Family.
Otherwise, they would beco the laughingstock of the entire Ancient Martial World.
So when Mu Dongcheng heard the senior mbers wanted to seek peace with the Zhao Family, he couldn’t have been more furious, almost spitting fire from his eyes.
"Manager, don’t get worked up or angry. We’re just discussing options, nothing has been executed yet. There’s no need to get so upset!"
One of the senior mbers looked at the livid Mu Dongcheng and said soothingly.
"I’m fine!"
Mu Dongcheng waved his hand, then looked seriously at the senior mbers present and said, "Regardless of the situation, our Chen Family must not concede to the Zhao Family. This matter concerns not only the honor of the Chen Family but also the downfall of the Family Master. Our Family Master fell because of the Zhao Family. If we concede to them now, the Chen Family’s face will be utterly lost!"
As Mu Dongcheng spoke this,
The senior mbers exchanged glances with each other.
Undoubtedly, there was so truth in Mu Dongcheng’s words.
However, truth is truth.
Should the Zhao Family attack,
The focus would be whether they could continue to survive.
Without life,
No matter how right they were, what did it matter?
Now, it was like a decision placed in front of the Chen Family.
One choice was seeking peace with the Zhao Family to gain safety.
The other was to keep fighting the Zhao Family, keeping their dignity, though leading the Chen Family to be wiped out by the Zhao Family.
One is dignity, the other is life.
It’s like choosing between fish and bear’s paw; they can’t have both.
To desire one, they must give up the other.
Of course, for the senior mbers of the Chen Family,
Life was more important.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have proposed seeking peace.
"Manager, do you really plan to have our Chen Family continue clashing head-on with the Beijing Zhao Family? If so, the Chen Family would have only one path left: destruction!"
"Yes, Manager, at such a critical mont, dignity and face aren’t important. We must ensure the survival of the Chen Family!"
"Manager, please reconsider. The survival of the Chen Family is more important than anything else!"
...
The senior mbers spoke one after another, trying to persuade Mu Dongcheng.
However, upon hearing this, Mu Dongcheng’s face turned solemn imdiately, and he said coldly, "Seeking peace is impossible, not in this lifeti. Since the Zhao Family hard our Chen Family’s leader, we will fight the Zhao Family to the bitter end. Don’t ever ntion making peace again, or you’ll be dealt with as traitors!"
As Mu Dongcheng said this,
It was clear he ant it.
Upon hearing this, the senior mbers of the Chen Family closed their mouths at once, and none dared to ntion making peace again.
Seeing this, Mu Dongcheng nodded in satisfaction.
However, at that mont,
The conference room’s door was pushed open from the outside.
A stranger, accompanied by the Chen Family guards, walked in from outside.
It was a middle-aged man in a black suit, looking ordinary but exuding an extraordinary aura.
Clearly not an ordinary person.
Seeing this, the mbers of the Chen Family frowned.
"Who are you?"
Mu Dongcheng frowned and asked, puzzled.
"Beijing Zhao Family, Zhao Hua!"
The corners of the middle-aged man’s mouth curled slightly as he replied with a faint smile.
As soon as he said this, everyone’s face changed.
Mu Dongcheng’s face instantly beca extrely gloomy, and he said coldly, "Soone from the Zhao Family? You actually dare to co here?"
"Why wouldn’t I dare? Or is the Chen Family capable of eating ?"
Zhao Hua’s lips curled slightly as he spoke with not a hint of panic.
