Chapter 400 - Pin The World Under His Boots (2/2)
Despite the telltale signs, many people couldn’t believe that Chen Fan would kill a young lord from the Han Family of Yan Jin in broad daylight.
This was ridiculous!
Qiao Luoyin and the others exclaimed in their minds.
Han Juntu hurried to face Chen Fan and bowed deeply, face taut with stress.
“Mr. Chen, my brother lacked manners because he is spoiled by my parents. We don’t tell him everything so he is not aware of who you are. The fault is entirely mine and my family’s. The Han Family surely will redeem our mistakes and make it up to you.”
People couldn’t believe their ears. An heir of the Han Family of Yan Jin had apologized to Chen Fan with such sincerity.
The Han Family was capable of making a poor man rich or make a footsoldier a general. Many people dreamed of having the Han family offering them a helping hand.
However, Chen Fan snorted and said: “I, Chen Beixuan have traveled the world all by myself and never once did I ask anyone for anything. If I want to have anything, I will just take it. Plus, what can you offer me anyways?”
He snorted and said quietly. However, Chen Fan’s soft-spoken words sounded like a booming thunder and forced Han Juntu to bow even deeper.
“You must know the price of offending me, don’t you?” Chen Fan said in an even tone.
“Yes.”
Han Juntu swallowed down the sorrow in his mouth and replied.
Although Han Juntu was not familiar with Chen Fan’s personality, he judged based on his actions in j.a.pan and concluded that Chen Fan would never let those who offended him off the hook. The punishment would be severe, if not fatal.
Lord Susano and Violet had both tested Chen Fan’s tolerance and Chen Fan reciprocated by destroying the Susano Shrine and killing everyone in the Fuji Ninja Clan. When the four demon G.o.ds ganged up on him, Chen Fan had killed all four of them. When the j.a.pan Self-Defense Forces tried to do away with Chen Fan, he had annihilated the army, struck down their expensive war machines and killed the main instigator, Mitsui Kazuo deep inside his base.
Han Juntu would never even dream of p.i.s.sing off such a terrifying man. He cursed at his younger brother under his breath and hoped that his mother had never given birth to this idiot.
The thought of his mother made Han Juntu heave a sigh. He looked up and said: “Mr. Chen, it’s all my younger brother’s fault. I hope that you will hear my penance and let me and my family make it up to you.”
“Nothing can make it up to me other than killing Han Hongkun. Are you going to stop me?”
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes and gave him a half-smile.
“What?”
Han Juntu’s body froze as he felt his body temperature suddenly dropped.
He wanted to say yes, but the word stuck in his throat and couldn’t form in his mouth.
Based on Han Juntu’s judgment of Chen Fan’s character, he doubted that Chen Fan would show mercy should the Han Family decide to stop him from killing Han Hongkun. The government desperately needed Chen Fan to be on its side and therefore, they would turn a blind eye to Chen Fan’s actions. In between a family clan and a man that was as powerful as either military division, the leaders of the nation would choose the latter in a heartbeat.
By now, most people have registered Han Juntu’s hesitation and what lay behind that hesitation had unnerved them.
“Is Chen Fan really going to kill Han Hongkun?”
“It seemed that the Han Family doesn’t even have the courage to stop him.”
People grew silent and gloomy as reality set in. They all gave Chen Fan shocked glares.
“Who exactly is he?”
Even members of the Chen Family felt that they had never really known Chen Fan, much less the members of the other families such as Song Shunhua and Qiao Luoyin. They examined Chen Fan carefully from head to toe as if they have only started to see him clearly now.
“Never mind, my little cousin is here, I don’t want to spill any blood.”
Chen Fan finally rose to his feet and walked toward the exit while holding Chen Guoguo’s hand, leaving a distraught Han Juntu standing there by himself.
Han Juntu heaved a sigh of relief for the near escape with death. His forehead was covered with cold sweat.
Suddenly, Chen Fan’s voice drifted into his ear.
“I don’t want to see Han Hongkun ever again.”
“Yes.”
Han Juntu was first startled by the sound and then he nodded vigorously. He made up his mind to ground Han Hongkun for the rest of his life. Grounding badly behaved members was a common practice among great families, such as the Lee Family of the Samsung Group. It was the worst kind of punishment for a spoiled brats such as Han Hongkun, but Han Juntu was confident that the elders of the family would agree with his decision. After all, he nearly dragged the entire family into his foolish feud with the most powerful enemy the family had ever seen.
“I don’t want to see the Song Family ever again either.”
Chen Fan said casually as he walked out.
“Understood.” Han Juntu nodded without any hesitation, despite Song Shunhua’s disbelieving gaze that was fixed on his face. He would throw the Song family off the bus in a heartbeat if the safety of the Han Family was at stake. If Chen Fan wanted to get rid of the entire Song Family, he would gladly do it for him.
It wasn’t until Chen Fan was through the threshold, did he heard Chen Fan’s last words.
“And the Han Family owes me a favor for this.”
“Yes, indeed, indeed.” Han Juntu nodded.
Han Juntu didn’t straighten his back until Chen Fan was gone and only to find out that his back was drenched in sweat. A deadly silence fell over the room as everyone looked at him in horror. The faces of the Song Family members were as pale as paper.
Qiao Luoyin’s mind was suddenly distracted by a shocking thought.
Did Chen Fan really defeat the combined might of all great families in Jinlin City?
