Chapter 96 The Truth Revealed
Chapter 96 The Truth Revealed
After defeating the Hongwu King, Xiao Chen looked at the Xiao family members.
"Won't your Yaksha lord come out?" he asked.
The Xiao and Xia families looked at each other in bewilderment.
Because they didn't know what the Yaksha was planning, nor did they know where the other party was hiding.
"I've lost interest in waiting any longer," Xiao Chen said impatiently, walking straight towards Xia Liuli.
"What are you trying to do? Don't be so presumptuous!" Xiao Hongyuan asked angrily.
"Xia Liuli, I'm taking her away today, and no one can stop me," Xiao Chen said calmly.
"Anyone who tries to stop me will die!"
The word "death" exploded in the minds of those present, carrying immense killing intent.
Xia Liuli was also struck by Xiao Chen's words, staring at him blankly, her heart rippled with emotion.
"What arrogance! I'd like to see how you're going to take her away today!" Xiao Yichen said coldly, blocking Xia Liuli behind him.
"You can barely protect yourself today, yet you still want to steal the bride? Dream on!" Xiao Yiyi sneered.
The expressions on the faces of the Xiao and Xia families were almost identical.
They had no worries about Xiao Chen, who had walked right into their trap.
Without saying a word, Xiao Chen continued walking towards Xia Liuli.
"on!"
Xiao Yichen waved his hand.
A group of people rushed out from behind him and attacked Xiao Chen.
These were naturally the people from the Heavenly King's Palace, each of them highly skilled.
Meanwhile, the Xiao and Xia families had also laid an ambush, and all of them were summoned to surround the courtyard.
"With so many people, he should be drowned by everyone's spit..." This was the thought of everyone present.
"I've said it before, those who stand in my way shall die!"
Xiao Chen's eyes were filled with murderous intent. With a single step, the earth seemed to tremble.
"boom!"
He seemed to transform into a tornado, sweeping across the area. Anyone who dared to approach was mercilessly blasted away, their fate unknown.
So many people couldn't stop him for even a moment.
Everyone was stunned.
In less than ten seconds, Xiao Chen appeared in front of Xiao Yichen and Xia Liuli.
Xiao Yichen's face still showed surprise, but even more so, anger.
"Who gave you the audacity to sleep with my woman and then try to steal her away at our wedding?" he said resentfully, staring at Xiao Chen.
"Your woman?" Xiao Chen's eyes flashed with anger. He grabbed Xiao Yichen by the collar and lifted him up, his expression disdainful.
"Xia Liuli has never been your woman. Ask her if she agrees. Even if she does, I won't agree, because... you don't deserve her!"
Xiao Yichen's face flushed red; he was furious.
"You care so much about Xia Liuli, I'll play with her right in front of you later!" he said through gritted teeth, suddenly pulling out a short knife and stabbing it into Xiao Chen's abdomen.
"Watch out!" Xia Liuli tried to warn him, but it was too late.
The short knife pierced Xiao Chen's body, and Xiao Yichen laughed triumphantly.
But his smile quickly froze.
Because the short sword couldn't penetrate Xiao Chen's body at all...
"You..." Xiao Yichen was shocked, not knowing what was going on.
Xiao Chen's gaze turned cold. He snatched the short knife from Xiao Yichen and plunged it directly into Xiao Yichen's stomach.
"what……"
Xiao Yichen screamed in terror, startling the people from the Xiao and Xia families.
"Yi Chen!"
"Xiao Chen, how dare you...you deserve to die!"
They frantically tried to rush forward, but Xiao Chen simply threw Xiao Yichen to them.
The two families rushed to check and asked someone to call a doctor for treatment.
Now that no one was blocking Xiao Chen's way, he faced Xia Liuli directly.
"Xiao Chen, you shouldn't have..." Xia Liuli sighed.
Xiao Chen grabbed her hand, interrupting her.
"I'll take you away, are you willing to come with me?" he asked.
Xia Liuli was stunned for a moment.
Seeing the seriousness in Xiao Chen's eyes, she couldn't help but nod.
"Leave? Do you think you can leave?" Xiao Hongyuan stood up and shouted angrily.
"You unfilial son! How dare you harm the son of the Xiao family's true dragon! Today you will pay with your life!" He trembled with rage.
"If it weren't for him, how could my Xiao family have achieved such glory? You are ruining my Xiao family's fortune! We will fight you to the death!"
The entire Xiao family stood up, looking as if they wanted to tear Xiao Chen to pieces, their hatred for him burning deep within them.
"What a fine 'fight to the death'! What a glorious 'glory'!" Xiao Chen said coldly, laughing in anger.
"Without me, the Xiao family is nothing. It's laughable that you think you gained your fortune because of Xiao Yichen..." His expression was full of sarcasm.
"Shut up! Do you think my Xiao family is where it is today because of a jinx like you, a discarded pawn?" Xiao Hongyuan said with extreme impatience.
Xiao Chen was too lazy to explain, since they wouldn't believe him anyway, and there was nothing more to say.
“He’s right, the Xiao family did rely on him before.” Suddenly, a voice rang out from the corner.
Everyone frowned and looked over.
A figure emerged from the shadows, dressed in rags and looking utterly disheveled.
"It's you again, you beggar! How did you sneak in?" Qu Ying asked with disgust.
"What? You've changed so much that you don't even recognize your own third daughter anymore?" Xiao Chen sneered.
"What?!" The Xiao family members were shocked upon hearing this.
Qu Ying looked at Xiao Shanshan in disbelief, and the more she looked, the more familiar she seemed.
"Are you Shanshan? What happened to you?" she asked.
"It was Xiao Chen who made me like this!" Xiao Shanshan's face was full of resentment.
"Shanshan, what did you mean by what you just said?" Xiao Yiyi pressed.
Xiao Shanshan paused for a moment before speaking.
"The big shot behind the Xiao family... is Xiao Chen..." she whispered.
Upon hearing this, there was complete silence, and the entire room was astonished.
The Xiao family was struck dumb; everyone was stunned and speechless.
The Xia family was equally incredulous and couldn't believe it.
for a long time……
"Shanshan, do you know what you're saying? How could Xiao Chen possibly be that important figure?" Xiao Hongyuan said with a stern face.
"What ability does a discarded pawn have to help the Xiao family? He's a jinx!"
"I don't believe it! This is impossible!"
Some members of the Xiao family were mentally unstable and simply couldn't accept it.
They had many guesses about the mysterious figure behind the Xiao family, but they would never associate him with Xiao Chen.
Such a revelation is truly earth-shattering.
"Shanshan, do you have any evidence to support your claim?" Qu Ying asked.
"It was someone from the Heavenly King Palace who told me this personally. I didn't want to believe it, but the facts are right in front of me..." Xiao Shanshan sighed.
The Xiao family was stunned.
The most remarkable person in the Xiao family was actually a jinxed and abandoned son whom everyone looked down upon...
"Xiao Hongyuan, if I hadn't had the Ten Celebrities vouch for you, with your qualifications, what merit or ability would you have to become the head of the Xiao family?" Xiao Chen sneered.
"Qu Ying, with your limited abilities, if I hadn't sent a formulator and paved the way for you, how could you have built an excellent cosmetics brand? You would have gone bankrupt long ago!"
"Xiao Yiyi, you're nothing but a business queen! Which deal wasn't facilitated by me behind the scenes? Which miracle wasn't created by me? And yet you're still so arrogant. Without me, you're just a piece of trash!"
"Xiao Shanshan, you're even more ridiculous! A gangster's queen? Ha! If I hadn't been there to smooth things over for you, you'd be nothing but dust by now!"
"And you, Xiao Yichen, the so-called son of the true dragon, have no brains at all. All you do is cause trouble every day. If I hadn't intervened, the Heavenly King Palace would probably be collecting your corpse!"
……
Xiao Chen called out each person's name and revealed the truth, making the faces of the Xiao family members extremely ugly.
