Chapter 193 Is the World About to Change?
"A generous gift from the Yuan family?"
Chen Dao chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I will personally collect this generous gift from the Yuan family!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Dao exerted force with his foot and stomped down hard. In an instant, Yuan Yong's chest caved in, his eyes bulged out, and he stopped breathing completely.
At the same time, Chen Cheng on the other side also snatched Yuan Jiang's sword and slashed Yuan Jiang's neck with one stroke!
"Pfft!"
A huge head flew into the sky, then fell to the ground, rolling repeatedly. You could still vaguely see Yuan Jiang's unseeing eyes.
At this point, Yuan Yong, Yuan Jiang, and all the people they brought with them were dead!
Blood stained the ground floor of the restaurant. The customers hiding under the tables and in the corners were horrified as they stared at the blood-soaked floor.
"They're all dead! The entire Yuan family is dead!"
"Yuan Jiang, and Yuan Yongquan, the most valued disciple of the Yuan family, have been killed. This is an absolutely earth-shattering incident!"
"Where did this ruthless person come from! He killed so many members of the Yuan family. Isn't he afraid of the Yuan family's revenge?"
"That's ruthless! More than a dozen people were killed!"
"..."
At this moment, the guests in the hotel looked at Chen Dao with shock in their eyes. This boy, who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, was incredibly bold. Not only did he kill the manager of Yuan's Pharmacy, but he also wiped out all the Yuan family members who came to seek revenge...
This man's ferocity is truly terrifying.
"Clap! Clap! Clap!"
Suddenly, applause broke out in the quiet hall, followed by two figures walking in through the restaurant entrance.
"Young friend Chen is truly a man of great hidden talent!"
As Xu Zhiwen walked in, he clapped and gave Chen Dao a deep look.
While discussing their plans in the backyard of the Fuhu Boxing Gym, they had already decided on a plan to eliminate the Yuan family. Chen Dao was now carrying out the first step of the plan: to first eliminate some of the Yuan family's forces!
Yes, Chen Dao killing the owner of Yuan's Pharmacy attracted Yuan Jiang and his group, and then killing Yuan Jiang and his group first was the first step in the three's plan!
Because they were worried about Chen Dao, Xu Zhiwen and Li Hu had actually arrived at Taihua Restaurant long ago, but they had been observing from the outside and had not come in!
It was precisely because he had been observing from the outside that Xu Zhiwen truly understood Chen Dao's strength. Previously, he instinctively thought that Chen Dao's combat power mainly came from Xiao Yuan and Chen Cheng. It wasn't until the end of this battle that Xu Zhiwen realized that Chen Dao was actually the one who had kept his strength hidden the most!
Chen Dao, who appeared to pose no threat on the surface, was actually the one who was hiding the truth the most... He easily defeated Yuan Yong, an eighth-rank martial artist. If it weren't for this battle, Xu Zhiwen would probably still be in the dark, thinking that Chen Dao was just a martial artist who had just entered the ninth rank.
Not only Xu Zhiwen, but even Li Hu looked at Chen Dao with a shocked expression, his heart filled with intense emotion!
When he first met Chen Dao, Chen Dao was a thin and weak farm boy. With the intention of befriending Chen Dao, he gave him the manual of the Tiger Subduing Fist.
It had been less than two months since he handed over the Tiger Subduing Fist manual to Chen Dao. In those two short months, Chen Dao had gone from an ordinary person to a seventh-rank martial artist...
This rapid advancement made Li Hu feel utterly envious, as he had practiced the Tiger-Taming Fist since childhood, and after decades, he had only barely reached the seventh rank.
And what about Chen Dao?
In just two months, he caught up with Li Hu's decades of hard training. Compared to Chen Dao, Li Hu seemed to be no better than a dog on the street!
"Magistrate Xu, Master Li."
Chen Dao nodded to the two of them.
Inside the hall, many guests and restaurant owners who heard Chen Dao's voice frowned. Many of them had never met the magistrate of Taiping County, but that did not prevent them from knowing the magistrate's status in Taiping County.
Anyone with a bit of status in Taiping County knows that the county magistrate is nothing more than a figurehead, completely incapable of controlling anything in Taiping County.
however……
This mascot-like county magistrate suddenly appeared here, and it seemed he even knew the murderer who killed the Yuan family...
It seems that the magistrate of Taiping County is not just a figurehead!
Many guests seemed lost in thought, while the manager of Taihua Restaurant crawled out from under the table and respectfully bowed to Xu Zhiwen, saying, "Your Excellency, Master Li!"
"Ah."
Xu Zhiwen nodded indifferently, then said, "Manager, I will bear the losses of your restaurant. You can come to my residence to collect the compensation afterward."
"Don't dare!"
The shopkeeper repeatedly said he dared not. Having witnessed the battle just now, he felt that he was already quite fortunate to be alive, so how could he dare to ask for any compensation?
That boy dared to kill even members of the Yuan family. Such a vicious person, if he dares to ask for compensation, he might be the next one to die.
"Take what's yours!"
Xu Zhiwen didn't exchange many pleasantries with the shopkeeper, and looked at Chen Dao, saying, "Young friend Chen, now that Yuan Jiang is dead, shouldn't we proceed with our next plan?"
"Of course!"
Chen Dao nodded, placed Xiao Yuan on his shoulder, and then said, "Let's go!"
So, Chen Dao, Xu Zhiwen, Li Hu, and Chen Cheng walked out of Taihua Restaurant side by side and headed towards the Yuan family's residence.
Inside the restaurant, after Chen Dao and his group left, the guests crawled out from their hiding places and chatted amongst themselves as they watched their retreating figures.
"Judging from what Magistrate Xu said, it seems they have a next step in their plan?"
"After killing Yuan Jiang and Yuan Yong, what's the next step? Could it be..."
"They've probably gone to deal with the Yuan family! Taiping County is about to change!"
"Who would have thought! Magistrate Xu, who was considered a mere figurehead, is actually so shrewd and resourceful!"
"Everyone said that the magistrate of Taiping County was just a figurehead, and it seems the rumors misled me! This Magistrate Xu is anything but a figurehead!"
"..."
At this moment, both the shopkeeper and the guests had a strong premonition: Taiping County was probably about to undergo a major change!
It was obvious that Magistrate Xu and his group were heading straight for the Yuan family. Regardless of who won or lost the fight between the magistrate and the Yuan family, it would drastically change the landscape of Taiping County!
"Shopkeeper."
A customer looked at the manager of Taihua Restaurant and asked thoughtfully, "Does your boss know about this?"
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You all know that my master is someone who doesn't care about anything and only wants to live a leisurely life. How would he know about these things?"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. They knew the owner of Taihua Restaurant well and were familiar with his character.
This man, as the county magistrate of Taiping County, was nominally the second-in-command of Taiping County, but he was not interested in power. He only wanted to be a wealthy and leisurely man, living the life of a rich man with the income from Taihua Restaurant. He lived a very happy life.
