374: Chapter 374 Be Your Dog!

Lu Nan narrowed his eyes, sized Wu San Gui up and down, and suddenly let out a chuckle.

"Old man, seeing you barge in with such an aggressive posture, are you looking for trouble?"

Guo Qinling cracked his knuckles. "That works out perfectly. That old geezer just now wasn't enough of a challenge; you guys joining in is just what I need to satisfy my itch."

As soon as those words were spoken...

The hundred-plus students all stood up straight in unison, their gazes becoming sharp.

The elite thugs behind Wu San Gui were so intimidated by this display that they subconsciously took half a step back.

They had just seen that burly man come up with their own eyes, only to flee in a pathetic state.

Now, they were being asked to face this group of fierce, tiger-like young people...

Wasn't that just seeking death?

Suddenly!

Ye Chen waved his hand, signaling for the surroundings to quiet down.

Immediately after.

He glanced at Wu San Gui and asked calmly, "Wu Family Head, are you also here to look for trouble?"

Wu San Gui's whole body trembled.

In the next second.

He made a move that no one expected...

Thud!

His legs buckled, and he knelt straight down on the ground!

"Mr. Ye! I am not here to look for trouble!"

The group of people behind Wu San Gui stared with wide eyes, their minds going blank as they watched their family head in this state.

Wait...

Didn't the Master say earlier that he was coming up to admit his mistake?

Why did he just kneel down immediately???

Wu Gong was the first to react; without a word, he followed suit and knelt down as well.

The remaining elite thugs also snapped out of it and knelt down in unison.

A dense crowd of people knelt at the doorway, creating an indescribably bizarre scene.

Ye Chen leaned back on the sofa, his eyebrows twitching slightly.

"Why are you kneeling?"

"Are you here to run a scam?"

Everyone: "..."

Good heavens!

Who would dare to scam you?

Wu San Gui knelt on the ground, panicking uncontrollably.

"It's not a scam!"

"Mr. Ye, I am here to beg you! I beg you to take in my Wu Family!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.

"Huh?"

"Take you in?"

"Don't you have a home?"

Wu San Gui couldn't hold it together anymore: "I didn't mean it like that. I meant... let my Wu Family become your vassal."

Everyone around was shocked.

Holy crap?

The head of the number one family in Magic City actually! Actually! Actually! Knelt on the ground begging the Chief Instructor of the Hidden Dragon Pavilion to take him in as a vassal?

This was simply too crazy!

Ye Chen rubbed his chin, looking surprised.

"Wu Family Head, what kind of act are you putting on?"

"Your grandson had his limbs crippled by me, your bronze key was snatched by me, and the Tianji Pavilion elder you brought to back you up is currently lying over there acting as a punching bag."

"You don't hate me?"

Wu San Gui shook his head like a rattle.

"Hate?"

"How would I dare to hate you!"

"Mr. Ye, you are a man of great ability. I, Wu San Gui, was blind to have offended you; that was my own doing!"

"As for that worthless brat Sheng'er, he caused such a huge disaster; you crippling his limbs was exactly what he deserved!"

"As for the key... that thing was originally ownerless. Whoever has the ability takes it. You taking it was due to your own prowess!"

After listening, Ye Chen nodded slightly.

"Wu Family Head, you certainly know how to adapt to the situation."

"Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

Wu San Gui grit his teeth and finally spoke his mind.

"Mr. Ye, Tianji Pavilion will not let this matter go."

"Once they react, the first one they will settle scores with is my Wu Family!"

"I, Wu San Gui, have been in Magic City for decades and have offended many people. Without Tianji Pavilion's backing, and having offended you..."

"My Wu Family truly has no way to survive!"

As he spoke, he kowtowed heavily.

"Mr. Ye, I am willing to be your dog!"

"Please take me in!"

"From now on, whoever you tell me to bite, I will bite!"

"If you tell me to go east, I will never go west!"

"I only ask that you... grant my Wu Family a chance to live!"

That's right!

There was no point in beating around the bush with someone like Ye Chen; one needed to be completely honest.

But those one hundred and twenty wolf cubs looked at each other, their facial expressions extremely vivid.

They watched as the head of the number one family in Magic City knelt on the ground, begging to be taken in with snot and tears...

This contrast was just too damn huge!

Lu Nan couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, "This old man is quite sensible..."

Guo Qinling glanced at him. "Nonsense, if he weren't sensible, he'd be dead. If it were you, wouldn't you kneel?"

Lu Nan thought about it and nodded seriously. "Then I'd kneel too."

Guo Qinling: "...Spineless."

Lu Nan smiled disdainfully. "If you're so brave, then don't kneel."

Guo Qinling gave a proud smile. "I won't kneel; I'll lie flat on the ground!"

Lu Nan: "..."

Yan Qingwu stood to the side, watching this scene, her beautiful eyebrows arching slightly.

To be fair.

She was very surprised.

One must know that the Beijing circles and the Shanghai circles were famously at odds.

Neither would submit to the other.

But she never expected...

That the Wu Family Head, who looked down on the Beijing circles and submitted to nothing under heaven or earth, would kneel before Ye Chen's feet.

It was practically a miracle.

Ye Chen leaned on the sofa, remaining silent for a good while.

Then.

He slowly spoke.

"Wu Family Head, you want to be my dog?"

Wu San Gui looked up, his eyes full of anticipation: "Yes! I beg Mr. Ye to grant me this!"

Ye Chen nodded.

"Fine."

"Then I will give you this chance."

Hearing this, wild joy instantly erupted on Wu San Gui's face.

"Thank you, Mr. Ye!"

He was so excited that he kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead hitting the floor with loud thuds.

Ye Chen raised his hand and stopped him.

"Don't be in such a hurry to thank me."

"To be my dog, you have to follow my rules."

Wu San Gui nodded repeatedly: "Please say it, Mr. Ye! I will definitely follow them!"

Ye Chen leaned back on the sofa, crossing his legs, and spoke leisurely.

"The first rule of being my dog is..."

"Your money is my money."

"My money is still my money."

"No problem with that, right?"

Wu San Gui knelt on the ground, and upon hearing this, the smile on his face stiffened slightly.

His heart was bleeding.

That was the family business his Wu Family had accumulated over decades. As the number one family in Magic City, their assets were at least several hundred billion.

Now, it all belonged to someone else?

But what could he say?

His life was almost gone; what was the point of money?

Wu San Gui took a deep breath and forced a smile that looked worse than crying.

"No... no problem!"

"Mr. Ye is right. Your money is your money, and my money is also your money!"

"From today onwards, everything I, Wu San Gui, own belongs to Mr. Ye!"

As he spoke, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and added another sentence.

"Forget about money, even my women are all yours!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen's expression became strange.

"Stop!"

"I don't like your women."

"You're at such an age; don't pull this nonsense."

Wu San Gui sheepishly shut his mouth, but he felt a secret sense of relief.

Good, good, this lord doesn't have that kind of taste.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't know how to deal with those little mistresses he kept outside...

Ye Chen looked at him in this state and shook his head slightly.

"Besides that, you have to do one thing."

"As a sign of your loyalty to me."

Here comes the main point!

Wu San Gui's spirit jolted, and he quickly straightened his back.

"Please say it, Mr. Ye!"

"As long as you speak the word, even if I have to go through fire or water, I, Wu San Gui, will not hesitate!"

Ye Chen nodded and spoke leisurely.

"The people from Tianji Pavilion will surely make a comeback."

"You should be clearer on this than I am."

Wu San Gui's face darkened, and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Mr. Ye is right..."

"So, I want you to list all the evidence of their crimes."

Ye Chen continued, "Understand?"

Wu San Gui was stunned.

He stared with wide eyes, looking at Ye Chen in disbelief.

"Mr. Ye, you mean..."

"To use formal procedures to deal with them?"

Ye Chen leaned on the sofa and nodded with an innocent face.

"Of course."

"I am, after all, a person within the system, the Chief Instructor of the Dragon Group's Qianlong Pavilion, with a perfectly legitimate background."

"When doing things, one must naturally be reasonable."

Yan Qingwu: "..."

Reasonable?

Out of everyone here, you are probably the most unreasonable one!

Wu San Gui: "..."

He was completely dazed.

Reasonable?

You just crippled my grandson's limbs, snatched the key from my hand, and detained the Tianji Pavilion elder as a punching bag...

Was there any reasoning in that?

This was clearly using fists to reason!

But what could he say?

He could only nod repeatedly, his face covered in smiles.

"Yes, yes, yes! Mr. Ye is right!"

"Reasonable! We must be reasonable!"

"I'll go back and organize it right away! I'll compile all the evidence!"

Ye Chen nodded with satisfaction.

"Mm, go on then."

"Remember, I want to see those things before dark."

Wu San Gui felt as if he had been granted a massive pardon; he quickly kowtowed a few times and then struggled to climb up from the ground.

He turned around and waved his hand at the group of subordinates who were still kneeling on the ground.

"What are you still standing there for? Let's go! Follow me back!"

The group of people scrambled to their feet and followed Wu San Gui as they swarmed out the door.
