Chapter 223 - Chen Xiao’s Warning (2/2)

Zhou Qinya had met Fang Qiong once, and she conceded that although Fang Qiong was not much prettier than herself, Fang Qiong’s graceful demeanor and breadth of knowledge was what completed her image as the perfect girl. Zhou Qinya wondered what would make a perfect girl fall for Chen Fan.

“It’s fine. I will have to leave now by myself.”

Chen Fan said lightly as he made his way toward a black Mercedes-Benz parked at the entrance.

Zhou Qinya saw a young man taking a drag in the black car. She immediately recognized the young man by his signature cold and gloomy look.

“Chen Xiao?”

In Zhou Qinya’s mind, Chen Xiao was a legend. He rose to power in the Jin City before he even reached thirty and he owned over a few hundred million a.s.sets. He was extremely well connected and influential. Zhou Qinya wagered if she could achieve half of what Chen Xiao did in her entire life.

“Chen Xiao came to pick him up? I think Chen Fan is more important to the Chen family than I thought.”

With great surprise and shock, Zhou Qinya got into her car and drove away.

Chen Fan linked his hands behind him and walked over to Chen Xiao. Seeing him approaching, Chen Xiao snuffed the cigarette and smiled at Chen Fan.

“Well, should I call you Chen Fan or Master Chen?”

The meeting was rich for those who knew the power dynamic between the two. Chen Xiao was Chen Fan’s cousin, but he was also the right-hand man of Master Chen’s biggest rival in Jiang Nan province: Tang Yuanqin.

A great man could not brook a rival, so everyone knew that the two would one day clash.

“Just call me Chen Fan.”

Chen Fan said lightly.

Even when he was much weaker, he never took Tang Yuanqin seriously, much less after he had proven himself to be the most powerful Grandmasters in China. That t.i.tle alone should have brought Tang Yuanqin onto his knees.

“You shouldn’t have come to Jin City.” Chen Xiao shook his head and said: “Boss Tang is a decisive man. If he learned that his rival is on his turf, he would spare no expense to kill you. Once you are dead, the tyc.o.o.ns in Jiang Bei would be rudderless and easy to handle.”

“Oh? I didn’t know Tang Yuanqin is that ambitious.” Chen Fan was lighthearted by the remark.

“Don’t you underestimate Boss Tang.” Chen Xiao furrowed his brows “His ability and resources are way beyond your imagination.”

“If that’s the case, why don’t you bring me to Tang Yuanqin? Is it because we are related?” Chen Fan asked calmly.

Chen Xiao was quiet for a while, and then answered:

“I know you dominated Jiang Bei using only your personal fighting strength, but not because you are smart. I know the likes of you, the so-called Internal Force users. I am not so dumb as to fight you alone barehanded.”

“BUT!” His face contorted as his voice suddenly turned cold and sharp. “However powerful you are, can you defend yourself against guns? I have seen an Internal Force user killed by guns before. So I say it again, Boss Tang will find you and kill you if you don’t leave now.”

“Ah… It seems that Tang Yuanqin has forgotten to tell you who I really am.” Chen Fan looked to Chen Xiao with an eerie grin.

“Who you really are?” Chen Xiao was confused.

“Ah.. never mind. I wager that if he knew who I am, he must have told you. I think not even he knows the truth yet.” Chen Fan pondered for a second and then let out a smile. “I think Tang Yuanqin has grown content and disconnected himself with the outside world. Otherwise, he must have learned who I am, and what I have done.”

Most Martial Artists knew only the name of Chen Beixuan and only a few knew Chen Beixuan and Master Chen of Jiang Bei were the same person. The thought that Tang Yuanqin was not aware of that amused Chen Fan.

“I have no idea what you are talking about. I just want you to know that you should leave the city and don’t let me see you again.” Chen Xiao snorted and then got into his car. He rolled down the window and added.

“I hope you don’t think that your backers in the military could help you. Boss Tang had been in the seat of power much longer than you, and his supporters are much more powerful than you think.”

“For the sake of our kins.h.i.+p, this is a warning. However, the next time we see each other, I will not let you get away so easily.”

Then, he revved up the engine and drove away.

As the Mercedes-Benz pa.s.sed Chen Fan, he could see an alluring image of a naked girl in the backseat of the car.

“Bon Appét.i.t, cousin.”

Chen Fan shook his head and smiled. Then he turned around and started way.

He didn’t care about Chen Xiao’s warning. He was way out of Tang Yuanqin’s league and anyone who wished to do him harm would have to mobilize a large army equipped with the most powerful weapons.

“Humm… Zhou Qinya was right. I think it’s about time to meet Xiao Qiong and give the boys around her a stern warning.”

He stood under a wash of street light which cast a long and stretchy shadow on the ground as he looked into the distance wistfully.
