"You, you…"

Ge'er Te looked at Jiang Chen with a horrified expression; he hadn't expected Jiang Chen to actually dare to strike, and to strike so ruthlessly at that!

Ding-a-ling!

A ringtone sounded, and Wu Liancheng frantically pulled out his phone, glanced at it, and his face turned instantly pale as he hurriedly answered the call.

"Hello, Dad!"

"Bastard! You beast! I told you not to provoke Ye Yùwǎn, yet you just had to disobey!"

The angry roar of Jincheng, the Family Head of the Wu Family, came through the receiver:

"The Jiang Family has made their move, the company's shares have plummeted to a halt within a minute, all our partners have unilaterally terminated their cooperation, the bank has frozen our accounts, and they are giving us twelve hours to repay the loans, all our businesses have been seized, and the goods at the docks have all been detained!"

"You fool! The Wu Family is ruined! You have killed our entire family! Why the hell don't you just die! Why didn't I just shoot you at the wall back then!"

Beep beep beep!

The call ended there.

Wu Liancheng's face turned exceedingly pale in an instant.

The family was under attack, and it was a ruthless one; Jiang Chen had not considered Ge'er Te's face at all, not the slightest fear of the Ge'er Family's retaliation. This was completely different from what Wu Liancheng had imagined!

"Mr. Ge'er, Mr. Ge'er, he, he didn't give you face! Please make him stop!"

Like a drowning man, Wu Liancheng desperately clutched at Ge'er Te's hand, pleading with a crying voice; this was his last life-saving straw!

"Jiang Chen, you've got some nerve! Are you declaring an all-out war against our Ge'er Family?" Ge'er Te looked at Jiang Chen with a grim expression.

Wu Liancheng was his own accomplice. The Wu Family was helping him. Attacking the Wu Family was like slapping his own face. Moreover, Jiang Chen had also killed his bodyguards, clearly showing no regard for him at all.

Ge'er Te was completely enraged.

"Can you represent the Ge'er Family? Isn't the competition for the heir of the Ge'er Family still ongoing? And even if you could represent the Ge'er Family, what of it? Daring to target Yu Wan deserves a price!" Jiang Chen looked at Ge'er Te coldly.

Jiang Chen felt guilty towards Ye Jingyi and the other two women, and they had nearly been harmed because of him. Those three were Jiang Chen's taboo!

The dragon has its reverse scale, touch it and you ignite its wrath!

When Ge'er Te and others had targeted Ye Yùwǎn, they had completely crossed Jiang Chen's tolerance limit, thoroughly enraging him!

"You…"

Ge'er Te's expression turned cold; he hadn't expected Jiang Chen to blatantly disregard his face. He glanced at the four bodyguards on the roof of the car behind him and suddenly laughed, "Haha, Jiang Chen, you've done me a great favor!"

Jiang Chen's eyebrows slightly raised, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes.

"Do you know who these four are? Among them, three are from my Ge'er Family, but one is not; one has been sent by the Holy Court to train with my Ge'er Family!"

"Our Ge'er Family does rely on the Chaide Family for business, but in terms of martial power, we indeed depend on the Holy Court. The person from the Holy Court you killed was a direct disciple of the Vice-Chairman of the Holy Court Tribunal. By killing him, Vice-Chairman Si Keda will definitely not let you off,"

"Moreover..." A mocking smile flashed across Ge'er Te's eyes, "Originally, the Holy Court was neutral in the competition for the successor of our Ge'er family. With your actions, you've pushed the Holy Court to my side! Ha, I really should thank you!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Qianxun and Elder Ming's expressions suddenly changed, and a look of concern appeared in their eyes.

"Are you using me?" Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed through them.

Ge'er Te said mockingly, "Jiang Chen, do you think I came to Flame Dragon to trouble you without investigating you first? You are the Family Head of the Jiang Family, and your father is the Chief Disciple of the Chixiao Sect, one of the Six Great Sects of Flame Dragon. You thought I'd be scared off by just four Paladin Knights? I'm not that foolish!"

"However, I really didn't expect the Chixiao Sect to value you so highly!" Ge'er Te glanced at Yan Hu and others, "This guy is from the Chixiao Sect, isn't he? Otherwise, with your Jiang family's power alone, you couldn't have raised such a powerful warrior at the Paladin Peak!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen inwardly sighed with relief. It seemed that the Ge'er Family only had some superficial information about him and had not thoroughly investigated his actual power!

"Jiang Chen, the might of the Holy Court is beyond your imagination. Don't think that just because the Chixiao Sect is protecting you, you can rest easy."

Ge'er Te continued to speak proudly, "Thirty years ago, Fa Rang, the Chief Judge, came to Flame Dragon alone and challenged the Six Great Sects and the so-called number one person of Flame Dragon, Long Dingtian, to eleven battles, winning eight, drawing two, and losing one! Your Flame Dragon, only Long Dingtian could barely defeat the judge by a slight margin, but the judge's strength is not the strongest in the Holy Court; the strongest is His Holiness the Pope!"

Ge'er Te looked at Jiang Chen with a cold smile, "Jiang Chen, do you think Long Dingtian, the number one person of your Flame Dragon, would confront the Holy Court head-on for you? When Vice-Chairman Si Keda comes to Flame Dragon to kill you, do you think anyone will dare to protect you? Huh?"

"Mr. Jiang, what he says is true. Thirty years ago, Chief Judge Fa Rang really did come from the west! And his battle record is indeed as he described it!" Elder Ming said, his face filled with worry as he looked at Jiang Chen and spoke softly.

"Haha! Jiang Chen, did you hear that? The Holy Court is at the peak of the world's powers. Offending them, you're only left with death!" Ge'er Te shouted out with a laugh.

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, glanced at Elder Ming, and a hint of dissatisfaction appeared in his eyes.

Elder Ming's heart trembled, and he quietly closed his mouth.

He knew that his words undoubtedly served to bolster others' morale and diminish his own prestige, but he felt compelled to remind Jiang Chen about the formidable nature of the Holy Court, which was well understood by the high-ranking officials of the sects!

Jiang Chen turned back to look at Ge'er Te and said gravely, "The Holy Court's power is indeed great, but what does that truly have to do with you? Do you think just because a disciple of a vice-chairman was killed by me, the Holy Court will go all out against me? Or do you think the Holy Court will trouble itself over you? You think too highly of yourself."

"Jiang Chen, stop playing dumb. Vice-Chairman Si Keda will definitely come for you because of Lei'ao's death, and then, you're as good as dead!"

Ge'er Te shouted fiercely, then lifted his head proudly and said, "However, if you surrender to me, and then present Miss Ye Yu Wan to me, perhaps I can consider pleading on your behalf and ask Vice-Chairman Si Keda to spare your life!"

"That's right! Jiang Chen, immediately submit to Mr. Ge'er and cease your attacks on our family; otherwise, you're doomed!" Wu Liancheng chimed in, falsely bolstered by Ge'er's presence.

Jiang Chen coldly glanced at the two of them and scoffed, "I really do not know where you get the courage in this situation to still act so tough. If you want to die, just say it."

PS: I don't know how long I have been persisting with updates of eight chapters a day, but my head is already spinning.

I couldn't hold up today. I took a nap at noon and surprisingly slept for four hours.

I woke up with a start and immediately got up to continue writing.

I don't have any other thoughts; I just hope everyone can comment more, so I also know what everyone's feeling.

Love you all...
