193: Chapter 193: Devotion unto Death, with Nothing to Repay_1 193: Chapter 193: Devotion unto Death, with Nothing to Repay_1 White Wolf had long since pledged allegiance to Xiao Chen, and naturally had nothing to hesitate about. Moreover, Lord Long’s words also deeply shocked him. Fighting and killing all his life, in the end, he still came up empty-handed, and in his old age, he was despised by others. It was truly tragic. If he wanted to change his fate, he had to follow Xiao Chen. After that, Lin Chaonan and Jiang Hai both drank with Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen poured himself another cup of wine. “What about you? Who wants to drink this cup of wine?” Xiao Chen smiled and looked at the others, “Don’t force yourselves if you do not wish to drink. Rest assured, I will ensure you all return safely, and no one will stop you. I can still guarantee that.” Those people hesitated. Ultimately, they did not drink. They did not want to give up the power and status they had worked so hard to earn. One cup of wine, and everything goes away, to them, it meant all their previous efforts were in vain. “Well then, you are all free to leave now, and the road from Linhai to the provincial city will be absolutely clear,” Xiao Chen sat down, still with a smile on his face, and said. Although everyone still hesitated, when the first person stood up and safely left, the others also summoned the courage to leave. After all, Linhai was Xiao Chen’s territory; they didn’t want to stay a minute longer. Jiang Meng sighed, “Uncle, you are really something. They just didn’t want to drink your wine. There was no need to drive them away, was there?” “Madam Xiao, those people prefer their own wine; if they don’t want to drink, so be it. We’ll drink!” Lord Long said with a smile. “Yeah, my wife, they don’t like free wine and prefer wine tainted with blood. I don’t understand it either.” Xiao Chen also chuckled. Tainted with blood? Chicken blood? Jiang Meng shook her head, she really couldn’t understand what these people were saying. Forget it, why waste the brain cells? Eating is what’s important. With so many dishes, and so many people having left so suddenly, it would be a waste not to eat. Even though life is much better now than before. But Jiang Meng genuinely feared hunger from that time. She couldn’t eat her fill, so now she really didn’t want to waste any food at all. “With your tiny stomach, how much can you eat? Don’t worry if you can’t finish, we can pack it and give it to Zhang Qi and the others. Many dishes haven’t even been touched yet.” Xiao Chen looked at Jiang Meng’s voracious eating and couldn’t help but laugh. After enough food and wine, most dishes were packed up. Jiang Meng was escorted to Xinmeng Group by White Wolf. Afterward, White Wolf headed to Tianxing Company. As for Lin Chaonan, as the vice president of the company, he stayed in Linhai. Jiang Hai, as the overall head of the company in the provincial city, returned there. In the private room, the table now had tea instead. Top-grade tea. And only Xiao Chen and Lord Long were left. “You old man really dare to come, aren’t you afraid I’ll take you out?” Xiao Chen lit a cigarette, took a drag, and said with a smile. “If you wanted to kill me, you would not need to go to such complexity.” Lord Long shook his head and said, “Please assign me a task next. I will prove my sincerity to you with my ability!” “Aren’t you afraid of death?” Xiao Chen said, “Wang Han was killed by Ghost Blade, and his backing Family Clan surely will not let things rest. If you return to the provincial city, you will face even graver situations than before. You spoke of hoping for peace. In reality, you just wish to use your own sacrifice to secure peace for certain people, right? Like Ghost Blade, like the Long Family!” “Indeed, nothing escapes your eyes,” Lord Long laughed, “If my life can secure their peace, I would be making a great profit. No regrets in this life!” “So, you trust me that much?” Xiao Chen exhaled a ring of smoke and said lightly with a smile. “Of course!” Lord Long nodded and said, “Although I still don’t know your real identity, I can guess that you are extraordinary. To protect Ghost Blade, to keep the Long Family safe, surely will be no problem.” “You sure are confident!” Xiao Chen said. “It’s not confidence, it’s intuition! My intuition has saved me many times!” Lord Long said, “But there’s one thing I need to warn you about. Under no circumstances should you underestimate the enemy. The people in Capital City, they are terrifying. The secrets I can’t uncover, they can quickly dig up. Once your identity is exposed, your family will likely also be in danger.” “Heh, them?” Xiao Chen laughed disdainfully, “My identity has in fact never been a secret. My family, even you know who they are. But I’ve never worried about them. Because anyone who intends to harm them, will definitely die!” “You indeed are no ordinary man!” Even when Lord Long racked his brain, he couldn’t figure out Xiao Chen’s true identity. Because Xiao Chen has a very simple history. And a very clear background. Originally from Linhai. Belonging to a family clan that’s neither too large nor too small. Latter because of financial decline, the entire family moved to Capital City and relied on relatives. Unfortunately, those relatives were not that kind. Through their parents’ hard work, they managed to establish a small company in Capital City. Although it was a small company, It was quite good. “You don’t need to worry about me.” Xiao Chen looked at Lord Long and said, “Remember what I said just now? After drinking that cup of wine, you are my family. Do you know what family means? It’s not a subordinate, not a dog! I, Xiao Chen, will not let my family get hurt. In the past, Linhai was forbidden territory. In the future, the whole Jiangnan Prefecture will be off-limits!” Lord Long’s eyes reddened. He thought that family was just a polite word. But he didn’t expect Xiao Chen to take ‘family’ seriously. “As long as I am alive, you won’t die, and neither will your family. But don’t forget what I asked of you. The things you’ve done in the past, I hope you won’t continue to do them.” Xiao Chen said coldly. “Certainly!” Lord Long knelt down once more, “Your subordinate, Long Hao, will repay you with his life!” “I told you not to keep talking about dying. Now get out of here, go to the provincial city, the next one is probably going to be a fierce battle! Let me see just how terrifying Long Hao, who once made the great families of Capital City tremble, can be!” Xiao Chen gestured with his hand. “Yes!” Long Hao left the room, and his aging face seemed to carry a bit more boldness. It seemed as if he had grown much younger. “Ghost Blade, let’s go, it’s time to head back to the provincial city!” “Yes!” Ghost Blade looked at Long Hao in surprise; he had overheard the conversation in the private room. The words of Xiao Chen had invigorated Long Hao in a way that was truly rare. As the two exited the hotel, they saw three figures standing by their car. “Lord Long!” The three of them bowed in unison and called out. “You!” Tears swam in the eyes of Lord Long and Ghost Blade. Tyrant Fist, Du She, and Xue Ying, who should have been killed by Wang Han, were actually alive. “What on earth happened?” Ghost Blade was confused. “Truly amazing!” Read latest Chapters at WuxiaWorld.Site Only Long Hao shook his head with a rueful smile, yet his eyes shone with admiration, “Mr. Xiao is truly a divine being!” With a simple trick, he had managed to win Long Hao’s complete loyalty and willingness to die for him. Now, he had given him such a huge surprise. No matter how much gratitude Long Hao felt, it seemed insufficient.
