Genius Daddy in the City - Chapter 398
Chapter 398: May I Know How Much Is Your Face Worth?
“Wait!”
Ye Chen could not help but turn to where the voice came from. A young man in a black suit walked out.
“Young Master Lei!”
“Young Master Lei is here!”
Everyone’s spirits were lifted when they saw who it was. They carved out a path by instinct immediately. Shen Xingye, who looked in despair, had joy on his face instantly.
“Young Master Lei, please save Xingye!” Tang Ning started crying as if she just saw her life savior.
Lei Can walked quickly to Ye Chen. He glanced at Shen Xingye, whose arms were severed on the ground, and then said to Ye Chen, “Brother, you can’t kill Young Master Shen!”
Ye Chen said expressionlessly, “Why not?”
“Because his father is Shen Tiannan!” Lei Can frowned and said, “Shen Tiannan’s status in Hong Kong and his techniques are beyond your imagination. It’s best you spare his life!”
Although Shen Xingye and he were in some sort of competition and they did not like each other, they could not deny that their fathers were the overlords of Hong Kong.
They were Hong Kong’s Thunder King, Lei Feihu, and the Southern Sect leader, Shen Tiannan! One could say that both of them stood on top of Hong Kong!
Meanwhile, this auction was the Lei family’s business. If Shen Xingye were to die here, even though Lei Can had the Thunder King supporting him, they could not handle such consequences!
From upstairs, Tang Ning hurried over immediately as soon as Lei Can finished speaking. She helped Shen Xingye up and said to Ye Chen proudly, “Young Master Lei is right. Xingye is Master Shen’s son. If you kill him, you’ll definitely have to bear the consequences of Master Shen’s fury!”
“Brother Ye, can you give me face and forget about this?” Lei Can said calmly after realizing that Ye Chen said nothing. To him, Ye Chen had offended the Shen family who he definitely would not dare to provoke. Otherwise, he would not be able to even exist in Hong Kong!
A mocking smirk appeared at the corner of Ye Chen’s lips. “Give you face? May I know how much is your face worth?”
Lei Can’s expression turned grim instantly.
In the next second, Ye Chen turned around and looked at Tang Ning. As she watched in horror, he flicked his fingers and pierced them through Shen Xingye’s forehead directly!
Thud…
The body fell weakly on the ground. Shen Xingye’s eyes were wide open while his eyes were filled with disbelief. Even when he was dead, he still could not believe that Ye Chen dared to kill him even after he mentioned his father, Shen Tiannan!
The place fell into dead silence!
Everyone looked at the corpse with horror on their faces!
Shen Xingye was dead!
Shen Tiannan’s only son had been killed by someone in his own territory just like that!
Even Chiba Yoshiko and the rest, who were far away, froze at that moment!
Tang Ning shuddered when she snapped back to her senses. She looked at Ye Chen in disbelief. “H-how dare you kill him!?”
“I’ll kill you as well if you dare to say one more word!” Ye Chen scoffed, his eyes looking ferocious, “I told you the other day that the consequences would be severe if you dare offend me!”
He grabbed Tang Ning as soon as he was done speaking.
“Young Master Lei, save me!” Tang Ning’s face turned pale.
“How dare you!?” Lei Can yelled furiously and threw a punch at Ye Chen. This was his territory. It was humiliating enough that Shen Xingye had been killed. If Tang Ning was killed right before him, how could he stay in Hong Kong in the future!?
Just when his fist was about to graze Ye Chen, a hurried voice came from outside, “Young Master Lei, Young Master Lei, I know who he is now!”
The voice that came out of nowhere stunned everyone. Lei Can withdrew his fist and turned around to look at the door.
They saw a young man walking over quickly. He had sweat dripping from his forehead as he spoke, “Young Master Lei, so the man that you asked me to investigate is…he’s…”
“Who is he? Tell me now!” Lei Can glanced at Ye Chen who was next to him by instinct.
The man gulped and said while stammering, “H-he’s the man who ranks No. 1 on China’s Heaven Leaderboard, Mad Southern Ye!”
He lifted his head to look by instinct after saying that. He happened to lock eyes with Ye Chen, then he fell onto the ground and said while pointing at the man, “It’s him, it’s him! Mad Southern Ye!”
The place became silent as soon as he said that!
Countless horrified eyes stared at him!
He was Mad Southern Ye!
Although they were all the way in Hong Kong, they still followed the news and rumors from China. Not only had the name Mad Southern Ye spread all over China, but it also spread all over Southeast Asia!
He had defeated Yuan Bupo, killed three masters, and chased after Northern Devil Jiang and then killed him at sea. He had also sliced a navy ship into half with the swing of a sword…
His feats were as shocking as thunder in one’s ears!
It was usually a topic at dinner, but nobody expected to see the legendary Mad Southern Ye with their very own eyes!
“What?!”
At that moment, Lei Can’s expression changed drastically, and he retreated many steps back immediately!
Tang Ning was dumbstruck as if she had been struck by lightning!
William and the rest inhaled sharply as if they were facing their enemy!
Meanwhile, Fang Mi fell onto the ground as disbelief filled her face. ‘Grandpa is right! This man is really someone!’
He was Mad Southern Ye!
He was China’s No. 1!
Fang Hao and she had thought such a man was a hillbilly from China in the beginning. They even thought that he was over his head to be so ignorant.
Wang Long stared blankly at Ye Chen. ‘Mr. Ye is Mad Southern Ye!’
After noticing that everyone had a change of attitude, Ye Chen squinted at Lei Can. “Aren’t you going to stop me? Where are you going?”
“Greetings, Mr. Ye!” Lei Can took a deep breath and clasped his fists at Ye Chen. “I didn’t know who you are before. Please forgive me if I’ve offended you in any way. I won’t be interfering with your business. We’ll give you the auction item now. It’s complimentary for you!”
He stepped back at that moment. It was for no other reason than the name Mad Southern Ye. This man was someone who was on the same level as his father and Master Shen!
When he waved, a staff immediately handed the last foreign fragment to Ye Chen in fear.
Ye Chen looked at Lei Can deeply and eventually did not attack him. He took the item and left the auction after grabbing Tang Ning with him.
Everyone opened a path for him by instinct!
Nobody dared to stop him, including Chiba Yoshiko and the rest!
Wang Long followed him immediately,
…
Wang Long only said while forcing a smile when they got out of the auction venue, “Mr. Ye, so you’re Mad Southern Ye. It must be hard for you to have hidden it for so long!”
Before this, he had countless speculations about Ye Chen’s identity. He suspected he was some powerhouse’s disciple or a descendent of some ancient martial family. Never had he thought that Ye Chen would be Mad Southern Ye!
“So, you know now, huh?” Ye Chen smiled calmly.
Tang Ning, whom he was grabbing, struggled while she begged hard, “Mr. Ye, please let me go. There are more benefits for you to let me live than killing me!”
Just when Ye Chen was going to speak, he suddenly lifted his eyes to look at the meadow far away. He smiled calmly. “It must be tiring for you guys to follow me. This place is perfect for you guys to kill and steal!”
