176: Father and daughter each got slapped, and Chu Niubi did the splits!

Li Meier reacted the fastest.

Her face instantly switched to a pitiful expression, like a frightened little white rabbit, and she softly called out towards Chu Niubi: "Brother Chu! You... how did you get here?"

Her voice was delicate and melodious, carrying three parts surprise, three parts grievance, and four parts dependence.

Li Shan also immediately suppressed the shock on his face, forced out a smile, and cupped his hands towards Chu Niubi: "Nephew Chu! I didn't expect you to grace our Hidden Sect at this moment, truly an honor! Please come in quickly!"

As they spoke, they both actively and quickly walked down the steps, heading towards Chu Niubi to greet him.

That posture!

That enthusiasm!

Compared to the shock, anger, and wariness they showed towards Ye Chen just moments ago, it was like two completely different people!

All the Hidden Sect disciples in the square were stunned, then quickly reacted, their eyes reigniting with hope.

Right!

How could they have forgotten about Young Master Chu!

This is the only son of the Chu Family, the top family in Yanjing, and the future heir!

In the Yanjing circle, he's someone who walks sideways!

More importantly... he's infatuated with the young lady, almost following her every word!

Now that he's here, how could he let Li Meier suffer any grievance?

With the Chu Family's power and background, even if Ye Chen really is from the Dragon Group, he'd probably have to think twice, right?

For a moment... all the Hidden Sect disciples looked at Chu Niubi with fervent eyes.

Chu Niubi was a bit confused by the sudden enthusiasm from Li Shan and his daughter.

But soon.

He realized something, so he didn't say anything.

Li Meier, however, with a tearful voice, pointed at Ye Chen and continued to accuse.

"Brother Chu! It's him!"

"This Ye Chen, using some evil method, restored the energy center of that cheap girl from the Liu Family, and even bewitched Elder Hong into betraying the sect, bringing him here to kill us!"

"Look... he killed our Hidden Sect's most elite Tian Sha Guard!"

As she spoke, she gently tugged on Chu Niubi's sleeve, looking up at him with slightly reddened eyes.

"Brother Chu, you must uphold justice for our Hidden Sect!"

"He even had the audacity to claim he's from the Dragon Group, saying he'll deal with our Hidden Sect first and report later... he's utterly lawless!"

Li Shan added in a deep voice from the side, his tone grave.

"Nephew Chu, this lad's methods are bizarre, his strength formidable, and he even spouts arrogant words, insulting the nation's important institutions."

"Although our Hidden Sect does not wish to be his enemy, he has gone too far in bullying us!"

"Now that you've arrived, nephew, you can bear witness!"

"I suspect he's impersonating a Dragon Group identity to commit crimes and evil deeds. Please, nephew, help us uphold justice!"

A classic case of the villain accusing first!

All the dirty water was being thrown at Ye Chen!

Anyway... with Chu Niubi's pig brain, he'd definitely unconditionally side with them!

The surrounding Hidden Sect people all bowed and shouted loudly.

"Please, Young Master Chu, uphold justice!"

"Please, Young Master Chu, uphold justice for our Hidden Sect!"

"The young lady has been wronged, you must stand up for her!"

...Just as all the Hidden Sect disciples watched Chu Niubi eagerly, fully expecting this Yanjing young master to step forward as usual, pat his chest, and support Li Meier and the Hidden Sect... Chu Niubi moved.

He suddenly raised his right hand and slapped a solid, loud slap across Li Meier's pretty face, which was filled with grievance!

"Smack—!!!"

The crisp, loud sound of the slap exploded in the dead silence of the mountain gate's air!

Li Meier, caught off guard, had her head jerked to the side, staggering back two or three steps before being supported by Li Shan behind her.

She covered her face, looked up, her eyes filled with disbelief: "Bro... Brother Chu? You... you hit me?!"

Not just her, everyone in the entire Hidden Sect square was stunned!

They all widened their eyes, mouths agape.

This... this script isn't right!

Shouldn't Young Master Chu be the hero saving the beauty, angrily scolding Ye Chen, then using the Chu Family's power to suppress this arrogant ruffian?

Why did he start by giving the young lady a slap?!

Chu Niubi shook his slightly numb hand, his face no longer showing the usual careless grin, only rage.

"Hit you?"

"I'm hitting you, you bitch!"

He pointed at Li Meier's nose, almost spraying spit onto her face.

"Li Meier! Are you fucking trying to plunder that woman Bing Lan's Special Physique?!"

Li Meier's mind was still in a daze, and she subconsciously replied: "Yes... yes, Bing Lan has a Special Physique. If I can obtain her origin power, my cultivation can..."

"I spit!"

Chu Niubi roughly interrupted her, trembling with anger.

"Obtain? How the fuck are you going to obtain it? Huh?!"

"Is it by having that bastard Zhao Yi marry Bing Lan, then transferring the power to you through dual cultivation?!"

Li Meier's face instantly turned pale, her eyes evasive, forcing herself to stay calm: "Brother Chu, who... who told you such nonsense? It's not true, I just..."

"Just your mother!"

Seeing her like this, Chu Niubi's anger surged even higher.

"Bitch! I gave you my whole heart, holding you in my hands afraid you'd fall, holding you in my mouth afraid you'd melt!"

"And you? You treat me like a fool! Like a lapdog to lead around!"

"Behind my back, you already found a Cultivation Vessel, planning to dual cultivate and commit adultery with another man!"

"Is my sincerity worth less than dog shit in your eyes?!"

The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, feeling utterly terrible.

He, Chu Niubi!

Could he really have such a miserable day???

Li Meier was completely panicked.

She didn't expect someone to tell Chu Niubi everything!

"No... it's not like that, Brother Chu, let me explain!"

She hurried forward, wanting to grab Chu Niubi's hand.

"Explain? Explain your father!"

Chu Niubi was in a fit of rage. Seeing her approach, without thinking, he slapped her hard again!

Li Meier was prepared this time and quickly dodged backward, narrowly avoiding the slap.

But Chu Niubi used too much force. With the slap missing, his body lost balance, and his foot was right at the edge of the stone step... "Aiyo, fuck!!!"

A cry of pain.

Young Master Chu was seen doing a "splits" pose, forcefully splitting on the cold stone steps!

The dull sound of his crotch making intimate contact with the hard stone surface made all the men present instinctively tighten their legs and suck in a cold breath.

"Holy shit!!!"

Chu Niubi's entire face instantly twisted in pain, tears almost spurting out. He covered his vital parts with both hands, curling into a ball on the stone steps, emitting incoherent cries of pain.

Li Meier: "..."

She looked at Chu Niubi, writhing in pain before her, momentarily unsure how to react.

Seeing this, Li Shan, not caring about much else, hurried forward to help him up: "Nephew Chu! It's a misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding! Please get up first..."

"Misunderstand your mother, you old dog!"

Chu Niubi, gritting his teeth in pain, heard Li Shan's voice and redirected his anger. He violently slapped away Li Shan's outstretched hand andGo with the flow gave Li Shan a loud slap in return!

"Smack!"

Li Shan, after all, was a peak Xuan Realm expert, so this slap couldn't hurt him, but the humiliation made his old face instantly turn purplish-red!

Chu Niubi, covering his crotch, barely managed to stand up with the help of his followers.

Then.

Sucking in cold air from the pain, he still pointed at Li Shan and Li Meier's noses and cursed loudly.

"I misunderstood? I misunderstand your whole family!"

"Li Shan! I'm telling you, your Hidden Sect is finished! Completely finished!"

"On the boat here, I already notified the Chu Family!"

"Now the Chu Family's experts are on their way! Today, every single one of you, no one fucking gets to run!"

He panted heavily and looked at Ye Chen.

"Ye Chen!"

"These two bitch father and daughter, and this damn Hidden Sect, I leave them to you!"

"Beat them to death for me!"

"After you're done, the Chu Family owes you a favor!"

"When you come to Yanjing in the future, I, Chu Niubi, will have your back, guarantee you can walk sideways!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen glanced at him sideways: "Are you telling me what to do?"

Chu Niubi felt a chill in his heart from Ye Chen's look, his earlier momentum instantly shrinking by half, and he quickly waved his hands.

"How could I!"

"I'm just... just disliking them and cheering you on a bit!"

"Besides, the enemy of my enemy is my friend!"

"They, the Hidden Sect, screwed me over, and you have a grudge with them too, so aren't we on the same side?"

"From now on, you're my friend, Chu Niubi!"

"In Yanjing, just drop my name, it works wonders!"

Ye Chen looked at his appearance—clearly in pain and gritting his teeth, yet still forcing himself to cozy up—and suddenly felt that although this guy was a bit of a spoiled, foolish playboy, he seemed... not thatHate after all.

At least, he was clear about grudges and favors, not beyond saving.

He didn't say anything more.

Instead, he turned around, his gaze falling on Li Shan and Li Meier.

Then.

He walked over step by step.

"Alright."

"The game is over."

"You two, daring to set your sights on my girlfriend..."

"Now, tell me, how do you plan to die?"
