121: Chapter 121 Past Life Enemies: The Demise of the Zhou Family in the Capital!

Zhou Ye's headless corpse was still spurting blood, and a sickening stench of gore filled the hall.

Zhou Xiong was, after all, a Martial Arts Grandmaster. Although he was gravely ill, his will to survive triggered a sudden rally of strength.

"Damn you, you actually killed my son!!"

"I'll see you dead?!"

Zhou Xiong roared, his bones popping throughout his body as he launched himself off the grand armchair.

In that instant, it was as if he had returned to the peak state of his youth.

He threw a Black Tiger Heart-Ripping strike, aiming straight for Lin Chuan's chest!

It carried the whistling sound of the wind!

This punch was powerful enough to shatter stone tablets!

However...

In Lin Chuan's eyes, this so-called Grandmaster strike was as slow as a slow-motion replay.

"Too slow."

Lin Chuan didn't even bother to dodge.

He simply reached out a hand.

Snap!

It was like catching a tossed orange.

Lin Chuan effortlessly caught Zhou Xiong's fist.

Then, he gave it a casual twist.

Crack!!

The entire arm was twisted directly into a braid!

"Argh!!!"

Zhou Xiong let out a wretched scream, the piercing pain instantly shattering his defenses.

"Grandmaster?"

"That's it?"

Lin Chuan sneered. Gripping Zhou Xiong's ruined arm, he hoisted him up like a little chick.

His feet left the ground!

Zhou Xiong struggled desperately, but before that terrifying, monstrous strength, he was like an infant.

"I'm sending you on your way."

Lin Chuan's arm swung violently.

Whoosh—!

Zhou Xiong was like a cannonball as Lin Chuan slammed him viciously against the wall.

Bang!!!

A massive boom rang out.

The entire wall shook three times, and spiderweb-like cracks even appeared.

Zhou Xiong was embedded in the wall like a hanging portrait.

Every bone in his body was shattered!

Before he could even utter a final word, his head slumped, his eyes bulged out, and he died instantly!

A dignified Martial Arts Grandmaster and the head of the Capital's Zhou Family.

Just like that, he was thrown to death like a piece of trash!

"Dad!!!"

Zhou Bingsheng and Zhou Xingcai let out a scream of despair.

It was over!

Completely over!

Their eldest brother was dead! Their father was dead too!

The Zhou Family's greatest reliance was as fragile as a sheet of paper before Lin Chuan!

Lin Chuan brushed the dust off his hands and turned to look at the siblings cowering in the corner.

That gaze was colder than the north wind outside.

"Don't! Don't kill me!!"

Zhou Bingsheng was so terrified he wet himself on the spot, a large patch of his crotch soaking through.

He kowtowed desperately, his head thumping against the floor.

"Lin Chuan! Grandpa Lin!! I was wrong!!"

"It was all that bitch Zhou Xingcai's fault!!"

"I don't want to die! Please, let me go!!"

"I'll give you all of the Zhou Family's money! All of it!!"

Zhou Xingcai was also trembling all over. Her once arrogant face was now covered in terror and tears.

She watched Lin Chuan approach step by step as if she were looking at the God of Death.

"Originally..."

Lin Chuan stopped and looked down at them.

"I just wanted to make your family go bankrupt, make you pick through trash, and beg for food."

"To let you taste what it's like to be a beggar."

"But."

A flash of violence crossed Lin Chuan's eyes.

"You should never, ever have threatened my family."

"And you even dragged me here."

"Fine, since I'm here."

"Then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Hearing this, Zhou Xingcai knew that begging for mercy was useless.

Suddenly, she thought of something, as if grasping at a final straw.

She yanked open her collar, revealing a large expanse of snowy-white skin.

Then she crawled toward Lin Chuan on her knees, hugged his leg, and tilted her head up, looking pitiful and ready for the taking.

"Lin Chuan..."

"Didn't you like me the most before?"

"As long as you let me go..."

"I can give you anything..."

"Including my body..."

Zhou Xingcai bit her lip, her eyes hazy, her voice soft and sweet enough to melt.

"I still remember how you used to love seeing me in dresses..."

"Just say the word, and from now on, I'll be your slave..."

"You can play with me however you want..."

As she spoke, her hand was still caressing Lin Chuan's leg.

It had to be said that Zhou Xingcai was indeed a stunner; in this state, any man would be moved.

Unfortunately.

Lin Chuan was no ordinary man.

He was an avenger who had returned from rebirth.

"Get the hell away from me! You stupid idiot!"

Lin Chuan kicked her away as if kicking away a bitch in heat.

His eyes were filled with disgust.

"A venomous woman like you is sickening to look at."

"Just go and die."

Zhou Xingcai was kicked over. Her hair was disheveled, and her face instantly twisted.

It was the shame and anger of being humiliated to the extreme!

It was a final madness!

"Lin Chuan!! You eunuch!!"

"Since you won't let me live! Then don't you think of living either!!"

Zhou Xingcai pulled a sharp fruit knife from under the carpet.

She had hidden it earlier amidst the chaos.

She lunged up like a madwoman, gripping the knife with both hands and stabbing it viciously toward Lin Chuan's heart!

This strike used every ounce of her strength!

It carried all of her hatred!

Clang!!

A crisp sound of metal clashing rang out.

The tip of the knife struck Lin Chuan's chest as if it had hit a steel plate!

A spark even flew!

The blade instantly bent!

Zhou Xingcai felt the webbing of her thumb split from the shock. She was completely stunned.

"This... how is this possible..."

"Are you wearing a bulletproof vest?!"

No!

Even with a bulletproof vest, at this distance, there should have been a hole!

And the sensation was wrong! It felt like hard meeting hard!

Lin Chuan looked down at his torn shirt and shook his head.

"What a pity."

"This shirt was quite expensive."

In the next second.

Lin Chuan's hand moved like lightning.

He snatched the knife from Zhou Xingcai's hand.

Then he thrust it back with a backhand.

Puchi!!

The sharp blade pierced into Zhou Xingcai's heart without any resistance.

Right up to the hilt!

Zhou Xingcai's eyes widened, looking at the knife hilt in her chest in disbelief.

Blood trickled down from the corner of her mouth.

Her body slumped down, her eyes still holding that trace of shock and resentment.

Until her death, she didn't understand.

Why Lin Chuan's body was harder than steel.

"Ah!! Sister!!"

Nearby, Zhou Bingsheng saw this and was scared out of his wits. He scrambled up to run outside.

"You still want to leave?"

Lin Chuan didn't even look. He just delivered a back-spin whip kick.

Bang!!

This kick landed solidly on Zhou Bingsheng's back.

The massive force directly snapped his spine and even shattered his internal organs.

Zhou Bingsheng was like a kite with a broken string, flying seven or eight meters away before slamming into a pillar. He spat out a mouthful of blood and died on the spot!

At this point.

The core members of the Capital's Zhou Family were all dead!

Looking at the corpses scattered across the floor.

Lin Chuan felt no pity whatsoever.

He retrieved a lighter from Zhou Xiong's clothes and lit a cigarette.

He took a deep breath.

Then he tossed the burning lighter onto the nearby curtains.

Flames shot up into the sky.

That night.

The Capital was shaken!

The century-old Zhou Family estate suffered a sudden fire that burned all night long.

According to insiders, not a single core member of the Zhou Family survived!

Some said it was a vendetta, others said it was a gang war.

But no one knew the truth.

Even those great families who knew the Zhou Family's background were scared into silence.

The Zhou Family had a Martial Arts Grandmaster and a Dark List assassin!

Who could it be?

Who could uproot such a behemoth in a single night?!

This method was too terrifying!

...Meanwhile.

Harbin.

In the Lin Family villa, the atmosphere was so heavy it felt like it could drip water.

It had been nearly a day since Lin Chuan was taken away.

Lin Jiang and Da Qiang were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, pacing around incessantly.

"What should we do! He's gone to the Capital! That's the Zhou Family's territory!"

"Nothing better happen to my little brother!"

Big brother Lin Jiang's eyes were swollen from crying.

Long Wu sat to the side, not saying a word, but the killing intent radiating from him caused the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees.

He was waiting.

Waiting for dawn.

If there was still no word from the boss by dawn, he would charge into the Capital!

No matter what kind of family they were, he would fight to the death.

Chu Tianbiao, Zheng Yun, Officer Su Qingyi, Chu Yueli, and the others had also rushed over immediately.

The big shots of Harbin were all gathered together, discussing how to rescue Lin Chuan.

"Although the Zhou Family isn't what it used to be, they are still incredibly terrifying!"

Zheng Yun put down the phone, her brow furrowed.

"How about we just take our people and charge in?"

Chu Tianbiao slammed the table, looking full of outlaw spirit.

"My Chu Family might be from the underworld, but I have a few brothers in the Capital who aren't afraid to die!"

"With Brother Long Wu, let's fight our way in!"

"No!"

Officer Su Qingyi shook her head; as a police officer, she was more rational.

"That's the Capital, right under the Emperor's nose. Your Chu Family's identity is already very sensitive. If you take that many people, you'll be arrested before you even reach the Zhou house."

"Moreover, the Zhou Family's eldest son is a top-tier assassin with a group of professional mercenaries under him."

"Force isn't the way."

"Then what do we do?! Just sit here and wait?!"

Chu Yueli was so anxious that tears were welling in her eyes.

"If Lin Chuan... if..."

Just as everyone was at their wit's end and even preparing for a desperate struggle.

Ring ring ring—!!

Zheng Yun's phone suddenly rang.

Everyone was startled.

"Hello?! Who is it?!"

From the other end of the line came a hurried and extremely shocked voice:

"President Zheng! Something huge has happened!!"

"News has come from the Capital..."

"The Zhou Family..."

"A sudden fire broke out at the Zhou Family estate last night!!"

"Zhou Xiong, Zhou Bingsheng, Zhou Xingcai, and that Zhou Ye who returned..."

"They're all dead!!"

"The Zhou Family... has been annihilated!!!"

"What?!!!!"

The phone in Zheng Yun's hand slipped and fell to the floor.

She froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Her mouth hung wide open, unable to close for a long time.

"What happened?! Sister Zheng! What happened?!"

Seeing this, everyone quickly crowded around.

Zheng Yun swallowed hard and turned her head with difficulty to look at everyone, her voice trembling:

"The Zhou Family... is gone."

"They're all dead."

"Annihilated... completely... overnight."

Boom—!!!

This news was a hundred times more shocking than Lin Chuan being taken earlier!

The room fell into a dead silence!

Everyone was stunned.

The Zhou Family was gone?

That behemoth, the Zhou Family with a Grandmaster, was gone?

Who did it?

Could it be... Just then.

The villa's front door was pushed open.

A cold wind blew in, carrying an enticing aroma.

"I'm back."

A familiar voice rang out.

Everyone whipped their heads around.

They saw Lin Chuan wearing his slightly damaged shirt, carrying several shiny, oily roasted ducks in his hands.

His face wore that signature cheeky grin.

"Oh, everyone's here. Perfect."

"I just brought back some roast duck from the Capital, it's still hot."

"Hurry up, Da Qiang, go get some shredded scallions, cucumber, sweet bean sauce, and chili sauce."

"Let's have breakfast together!"

Looking at the man who was completely unharmed and had even bought local specialties on the way back.

And then thinking of the earth-shattering news Zheng Yun had just delivered.

Everyone was left in a complete daze.
