CHAPTER 443: CHAPTER 444: WANG FU COURTING DEATH

Su Changfeng smiled faintly, Wang Fu was full of a merchant’s greed, even in such a situation still planning to make extra money. Truly shameless.

"Then let’s pretend I didn’t say anything, I’ll pay his debt. If you have the means, you can demand it yourself." Su Changfeng said.

Wang Fu was utterly baffled, he never expected Su Changfeng to back down like this—not only did he not make any extra, he was losing the initial investment. He didn’t dare voice any complaints either, as Chen Zehua’s murderous gaze rendered Wang Fu speechless and afraid.

Beside him, Gu Changsheng smiled helplessly, Wang Fu’s greed-driven nature was finally at a loss this time.

At this moment, Chen Zehua suddenly stood up and walked towards Wang Fu, asking: "How much did you plan to demand?"

Wang Fu’s scalp instantly exploded, filled with fear, he quickly said: "No, no, no, I don’t want anything! Not a single cent! It’s all yours, please don’t act rashly."

Upon hearing Wang Fu’s words, Chen Zehua then stopped walking, Wang Fu was drenched in cold sweat, feeling as though he had fallen into an icy pit.

"Can I leave now?" Chen Zehua asked.

"Yes, yes, absolutely." Wang Fu hurriedly replied.

Chen Zehua once again walked behind Dao Jiu, looking exactly as before, like a subordinate.

"Old Master Gu, I’ll be leaving now." Su Changfeng said.

Gu Changsheng nodded, saying: "Don’t worry, I’ll handle everything that follows."

After Su Changfeng and his two companions left the martial arts hall, Wang Fu’s face finally showed a dissatisfied expression, filled with malice.

"Wang Fu, let me advise you once more. Stop holding on, or you will implicate not only yourself but also Wang Changtian. Do you want to see the end of the Wang family?" Gu Changsheng reminded.

Because Gu Changsheng knows Wang Fu’s character well, he would surely seek revenge against Su Changfeng. But if he were to do so, he’d be dragging the Wang family into a deep abyss. He’s old and has little to lose, but Wang Changtian is young.

"Gu Changsheng, stop trying to scare me. I’ve survived through many storms." Wang Fu said viciously.

"Have you ever seen a wave capable of killing a person?" Gu Changsheng said seriously.

Wang Fu responded with disdain: "I know you’re trying to elevate Su Changfeng, but there’s no need to make him sound so legendary."

Elevate?

This word reached Gu Changsheng’s ears, prompting a laugh. He doesn’t have the qualification to elevate Su Changfeng; in Su Changfeng’s eyes, the Gu family is just a small player.

"I’ve said enough. If you insist on opposing him, just wait and see the show." Gu Changsheng chose not to say more.

Su Changfeng’s true identity, he would never reveal, even though he has known Wang Fu for a long time, almost as if they were friends. But he’s said everything he could—if Wang Fu puts him in danger, he wouldn’t risk it for Wang Fu.

With an unwilling expression, Wang Fu left with Wang Changtian. Not only did he fail to reclaim his honor, but he also lost face again, right in front of Gu Changsheng. How could he swallow this?

"Grandfather, let’s just let this go," Wang Changtian suggested after leaving the martial arts hall.

Gu Changsheng’s words had worried him deeply. He didn’t want to be implicated by Wang Fu’s reckless actions.

"You useless thing, those words scared you? I was hoping you’d bring glory to the Wang family." Wang Fu said coldly.

Wang Changtian sighed helplessly. Once Wang Fu decides on something, he can’t change it. Now he can only hope Gu Changsheng’s warnings were merely to frighten them, otherwise the Wang family is doomed.

Su Changfeng and his two companions arrived at the Underground Boxing Ring. It was not yet open for business, empty, a good place for chatting.

Dao Jiu also understood that things have reached this point, he should confess some things to Su Changfeng.

"Brother Changfeng, ask whatever you want now; I can tell you everything." Dao Jiu said.

Seeing Dao Jiu’s attitude towards Su Changfeng, Chen Zehua felt particularly displeased. What made this kid worthy of such treatment from Dao Jiu?

Su Changfeng looked at Chen Zehua and then smiled and replied: "Whatever you want to say, I’ll be all ears. If there’s something you don’t want to mention, don’t force yourself. Just like I’ve said before, I trust you."

Dao Jiu looked at Su Changfeng gratefully, because to be like Su Changfeng is really rare. To trust someone under unknown circumstances like Su Changfeng does, common people wouldn’t do so.

"I retired from the special forces. Before I left, during a mission, one of my brothers died wrongfully due to some reasons. He could only be wrongfully killed, but I couldn’t let go of this matter, I intended to avenge him. So I retired and took some brothers to avenge him. But unexpectedly, the plan initially set for revenge faced problems again. Not only did we fail to avenge that brother, but many brothers also died tragically." Dao Jiu’s eyes showed a hint of bitterness.

Behind Dao Jiu, Chen Zehua suddenly kneeled on the ground: "Ninth Brother, it’s all my fault. If it weren’t for providing false information, the brothers wouldn’t have died."

Dao Jiu spoke very simply, but Su Changfeng could still sense Dao Jiu’s pain from his words. Dao Jiu seems willing to retire from the military for his brothers, implying how much he values brotherhood. But the plan to avenge the deceased brother led to more deaths, making Dao Jiu experience the most painful moment of his life.

Dao Jiu seemed not to hear Chen Zehua’s words and continued: "My brothers’ families still have parents and children depending on them, and since they died because of me, I have to support them. That’s why I came to the Underground Boxing Ring to fight in Black Boxing matches, because it’s the fastest and easiest way to make money while ensuring safety. I can’t risk my life, can’t engage in risky activities, because my brothers’ families still depend on me."

"Zhu Lie mentioned there might be issues with the Boxing Arena’s accounts, and I think you need money. From now on, all the earnings from the arena belong to you." Su Changfeng said blandly.

Su Changfeng hadn’t expected Dao Jiu to be bearing all this, and the responsibility was one Dao Jiu took on himself. If Dao Jiu wanted to escape, he wouldn’t need to carry such burdens.

Honestly, Dao Jiu is a remarkably responsible person. Su Changfeng doesn’t know exactly how many people Dao Jiu has to support, but it must be quite a sum, previously earned through Black Boxing.

At the time, Su Changfeng thought Dao Jiu was spending all his money on Wang Xiaoyun, but now it seems he was mistaken.
