"Mr. Chen, to possess such strength at your young age is incredible. You’ll surely beco a peerless expert in the future and unite all of Jiangnan."
"Mr. Chen, are you really taking the young master and the Lin Family’s Miss Lin with you?"
Listening to the chatter around him, Chen Zheng gave a faint smile. "I’m simply following orders. As for becoming a ’super expert’ or ’unifying Jiangnan,’ I couldn’t care less. All I want to do is rescue my wife and child. I’m not interested in anything else."
"Brother Chen, are you really leaving?" Lin Xiaofei asked, his eyes turning red.
"I said I am taking them with today," Chen Zheng said, looking at him.
"Sigh... Alright, Brother Chen. Just take them with you," Lin Xiaofei sighed in resignation.
Chen Zheng nodded. "Okay. Lin Xiaofei, rember this: I, Chen Zheng, owe you a favor. If you ever need my help, just ask. I’d do it even if it cost everything."
"Thank you, Brother Chen!" Lin Xiaofei said gratefully.
"Lin Xiaofei, you’re a good kid. As long as you work hard, you will definitely reach the Martial Ancestor Realm one day. I’ll be waiting for you. Now, let’s go."
Chen Zheng turned, took Su Yan and Su Rou by the hand, and walked toward the door.
"Chen Zheng... thank you," Lin Xiaofei murmured, watching him leave. I will work hard to reach the Martial Ancestor Realm as soon as possible and then find Chen Zheng to repay his kindness. he silently vowed.
"Xiaofei, are you really going to let this Chen Zheng take Young Master Zhao and Miss Lin?" Zhao Zhipeng asked.
"Yes, our Zhao Family can no longer just swallow this insult!" one of Zhao Zhipeng’s lackeys chid in.
"I’ve heard Chen Zheng has a powerful background," another lackey added. "Our Zhao Family can’t afford to oppose him. If we do, we might be destroyed."
"Uncle Zhao, that Chen Zheng is not easy to deal with," Lin Xiaofei said with a frown. "We are no match for him. The fact that he dared to co looking for you proves he already has sothing on you. You shouldn’t act rashly."
"I know," Zhao Zhipeng nodded. "Lin Xiaofei, what do you plan to do with the people from the Lin Family?"
"This..." Lin Xiaofei hesitated for a mont before saying, "I’ll let them go for now. I’ll decide what to do after Brother Chen leaves."
"Hmm, that’s good. I’ll be leaving first then," Zhao Zhipeng nodded, having a more important matter to attend to.
"Xiaofei, what about ? I want to leave too!" one of the lackeys said anxiously.
Lin Xiaofei gave him an apologetic look and sighed. "Brother, I know you’ve been loyal to , and I promised to give you a chance for helping . But the situation is different now, and I can’t protect you anymore."
"You..."
"Brother, you should leave here for now. We’ll get in touch after we’ve settled down," Lin Xiaofei said, patting his shoulder.
With a face full of indignation, the man saw he had no other choice but to leave.

「Elsewhere!」
Su Yan and Su Rou were confined in a luxurious apartnt that had been left to Su Yan by her parents. She had accepted it when Lin Xiaofei offered it to her because she didn’t want to cause trouble for her parents. Besides, Lin Xiaofei had good intentions; he didn’t want her getting entangled with Zhao Zhipeng. If the Lin Family were to fall into the Zhao Family’s clutches, Lin Xiaofei’s future would be ruined.
"Xiaorou, I’m so sorry for dragging you into danger," Su Yan said, her face full of guilt.
"Sister Su Yan, this has nothing to do with you. You don’t need to apologize. This was my choice," Su Rou replied, shaking her head slightly.
"Xiaorou, you’re so foolish."
"Are you the fool? How could I just stand by and watch you get captured? I couldn’t accept that!"
"Su Rou, please don’t cry. Your tears make feel even more guilty. I’ll never be able to forgive myself," Su Yan said, starting to cry herself as she watched the weeping Su Rou.
"Sister Su Yan, don’t bla yourself for this. I’ll find a way to get you out of here. I must." Su Rou wiped her tears and looked at Su Yan. "By the way, Sister Su Yan, you have money, don’t you? Let’s take so out and buy this place first."
"Are you crazy?" Su Yan shook her head. "This apartnt may be worth tens of millions, but it’s not a suitable place for us to live."
"Then where will we live?" Su Rou asked, bewildered.
As an ordinary person, where would I get the funds to buy a mansion? This place would be enough for us to live on for thirty or fifty years, but we can’t just settle for this. We have to change our situation.
"We’ll go to Jianghai City," Su Yan said suddenly after a mont of silence.
"What? Jianghai City?" Su Rou said with a frown. "It’s a big, prosperous city, but the public security is terrible and it’s so crowded. We definitely couldn’t stay there."
"Su Rou, listen closely. From now on, you only need to rember one thing: no matter what difficulties we face, we must never submit. You have to march forward bravely, without a hint of fear! This is my final lesson for you. If you can do this, you’ll discover that everything I’ve told you was right," Su Yan said, looking at her with the utmost seriousness.
"I... I understand," Su Rou replied, stunned for a mont before nodding.
"Good. Now, call Zhao Zhipeng. I’ll wait for you downstairs."
After speaking, Su Yan left the room and sat on the sofa in the living room, her eyes fixed on sothing in the distance.

「Elsewhere!」
Chen Zheng led a group of n in black suits straight for the Zhao Family’s estate, their appearance imposing.
"Stop! Don’t co any closer!" two of Zhao Zhipeng’s lackeys shouted, blocking their path.
"Zhao Zhipeng, co out and see ," Chen Zheng said with a dismissive glance.
"Chen Zheng? It’s you! You actually dare to co to the Zhao Family looking for death!" When Zhao Zhipeng saw Chen Zheng’s face clearly, his pupils shrank and his lips began to tremble.
The Zhao Family was a prominent clan in Nanjiang City, and Zhao Zhipeng was their sole heir. The entire family was practically in his hands, which was why he dared to act so arrogantly. But who was Chen Zheng? A year ago, this man defeated with a single punch. Now he’s back... is he here to kill !?
"Zhao Zhipeng, I don’t like to waste words. Get out here now, and I might let you live," Chen Zheng said coldly.
Hearing this, Zhao Zhipeng’s expression turned grim and volatile.
"What? Still don’t want to co out?" Chen Zheng frowned and scoffed.
"Hmph! Trying to kill the young master of the Zhao Family? Chen Zheng, you’ve got so nerve!" one of the lackeys shouted angrily.
"Young Master Zhao, if you don’t co out, then I’ll have to personally co in and invite you," Chen Zheng stated calmly.
Zhao Zhipeng gritted his teeth. "Chen Zheng, you’re too arrogant! The Zhao Family might not have imnse influence in Nanjiang City, but we are not people you can just bully!"
