Chapter 2096 Not recognizing the true nature of an iron plate

No one reacted.

Hua Xuening's sword was already pressed against the sect leader's neck.

Hurry up!

No one could have imagined that this seemingly simple-minded girl, who had been looking around with clear eyes, trying to analyze the situation, would suddenly make such a swift move.

She appeared instantly beside the sect leader as if she had vanished from the spot. It wasn't until Hua Xue Ning made a sound that the sect leader realized there was someone standing next to him.

The sect leader dared not move, not even a little bit.

Luo Shiyin stepped out, her face stern: "Sect Leader, you must know about President Chen's powerful backing. President Lu specifically arranged for a few of us to protect her, with the aim of ensuring nothing goes wrong."

The sect leader was very nervous: "We're all friends...we can talk about anything."

Luo Shiyin said, "Mr. Chen needs your permission to come, because this is your residence. You have no right to stop him from leaving; if you do, something bad will happen. Do you understand?"

"understand."

Hua Xuening said, "The 'Kitchen Knife Sect' has committed numerous evils. Killing them will be a good thing for the people!"

"do not want!"

Lu Chengwen rushed over: "Heroine, please don't kill our sect leader!"

Hua Xuening looked at Lu Chengwen, her face full of frustration: "Should we kill him or not?"

"do not kill."

"Why not kill him? He's clearly a terrible guy."

"Uh...he...is definitely a big bad guy..."

The sect leader panicked: "Xiao Wen!"

"But we can't kill them!"

"Why!?"

Lu Chengwen said, "Let me explain a principle to you."

"That makes sense?"

"Yes." Lu Chengwen gently gripped the sword blade and slowly moved it away, and the sect leader breathed a sigh of relief.

"Our sect leader is indeed a tyrant who preys on the villagers, engages in extortion and plunder, bullies men and women, and whose sons are born without an anus and whose ancestral graves are struck by lightning..."

The sect leader rubbed his neck: "Xiao Wen, sometimes when you speak up for me, I just want to slap you!"

Lu Chengwen waved his hand and pulled Hua Xuening away: "But didn't you come here to help President Chen with his business?"

Hua Xuening stamped her foot: "He has no intention of doing business at all! He's just throwing a tantrum here. His own things were stolen by a thief from his own house, and he won't let us leave. Why should we?!"

"Yes, yes, yes, our sect leader was wrong first, then wrong in the middle, and finally wrong at the end..."

The sect leader said, "Is it all my fault?"

Lu Chengwen turned to look at him, shook his head, and said to Hua Xuening, "Kill them, I have nothing more to say."

Hua Xuening was about to make a move when the sect leader quickly pulled Lu Chengwen aside, saying, "Say it, say it, just say it casually. It's wrong, wrong, wrong, it's my fault!"

Lu Chengwen said, "My lady, it's normal for the sect leader to have some suspicions since there was a thief in his house and valuables were stolen."

“My master has plenty of money! Why would he need to steal his broken beads?”

Hua Xuening was extremely arrogant: "My master can swindle a lot of money with just a little bit of crooked thinking! I'm not making this up!"

"Yes, yes, I know, I know..."

"Let me tell you this, my master... my master leaves the lights on even when no one is home, he doesn't care about the electricity bill."

Lu Chengwen was very surprised: "So extravagant?"

“Of course!” Hua Xuening said, “He never eats leftovers. He feeds them to the dogs. Do you understand?”

"That's incredibly wealthy."

The sect leader was on the verge of tears.

Who is this!

His martial arts skills are extraordinary, and his speed is inhuman, but his brain... is clearly a bit off!

Lu Chengwen suppressed a laugh: "Heroine, now we understand. President Chen definitely wouldn't steal our luminous pearl, nor would he cheat us out of our money. How about this, let's be friends..."

"He's a big bad guy! We're friends with him? We're here to kill big bad guys, not to be friends with them! You shouldn't be friends with a big bad guy either..."

As Hua Xuening spoke, she pointed her sword randomly in front of the sect leader's face. The sect leader was so frightened that his face turned pale. He tried to dodge back and forth but couldn't, and his bladder was about to burst.

Lu Chengwen tried to grab her wrist for a long time but couldn't, so he rushed over and hugged her around the waist, saying, "Okay, okay, let's not be friends anymore, let's not be friends anymore."

Hua Xuening blushed as Lu Chengwen hugged her, and all her strength seemed to dissipate.

Luo Shiyin pulled her back.

"Sect Master, can we leave now?"

The sect leader wiped his sweat: "Hurry up! Someone, open the gate for them, quick, quick, quick!"

The sect leader thought to himself, "What the hell is this? A plague god?"

It's the most unjust thing in the world that she was stabbed to death so easily.

The gate was opened, and the people from the Kitchen Knife Sect looked at Hua Xuening as if she were a ghost.

Everyone saw how fast she was going... no one could even see it, and then she suddenly disappeared, did you know that?!

Let alone them, even the sect leader couldn't react. Are these ordinary people?

Chen Mengyun smiled slightly: "Then I'll take my leave."

"Please, please, take this lady away, please..."

Hua Xuening glared at the sect leader, then turned and followed.

Huo Wendong followed behind Chen Mengyun with his head down, when the young sect leader grabbed him and pulled him back: "Did I tell you to leave?"

Huo Wendong looked distressed: "Really... I'm really not on his side."

He turned to look at Bangdao Mang and said, "Look at him! How dashing he is! Go! Get me out of this mess!"

Bang nodded and strode toward the sect leader.

The sect leader was shocked. Could he also be a master?!

Bang Daomang stepped forward and knelt down with a thud: "Sect Leader, please, let us go, we really didn't steal..."

The sect leader clutched his chest, cursing inwardly: "You bastard, you scared me half to death!"

"Beat him up! Beat him up! Beat him up!"

A group of people rushed up and were about to beat up Bangdao Mang.

Huo Wendong panicked: "Xiao Wen! Aren't you going to do anything about this?!"

It means if you keep pretending, I'll expose you!

Lu Chengwen quickly stopped him: "Wait!"

Lu Chengwen walked up to the sect leader and said, "Sect leader, Huo Wendong is a businessman, and he's just doing business, which isn't wrong. The real culprit is the traitor within the family! Without the traitor within the family, where would Huo Wendong come from? Besides, you might not have a concept of the Huo family's strength; it's a large corporation that even Lu Chengwen wouldn't dare to touch!"

"Is it that amazing?"

"Let me put it this way, the Elders' Council can mobilize them."

What is the Elders' Council?

Lu Chengwen thought to himself, "You country bumpkin, you should stay in Saihe for the rest of your life and never leave."

You don't understand the Huo Group, you don't know the Elders' Council, yet you dare to hit their people? You think you're so tough, why are you kicking any of them?

The strategist chimed in, "Sect Leader, I'm definitely not on his side, absolutely not of one mind! We can't afford to offend the Huo family; their influence is too great. You can fight Huo Wendong, but after that, I'm afraid all four major families will come looking for trouble!"

The sect leader thought for a moment and then smiled.

"Mr. Huo, we can talk business. Since you're the young master of the Huo family, I'll give you face. But, business can't be conducted by trickery or extortion, can it? You're in cahoots with my strategist..."

"Sect Leader, we did not conspire together."

"Shut up!" Lu Chengwen snapped. "Let the sect leader finish speaking."

The sect leader glared at the strategist: "I'm giving you face today, you can go back. We'll discuss the cooperation later."

Huo Wendong, being astute, said, "Take care, Sect Leader."

He turned and left without pausing for a moment.

Everyone has left.

The sect leader looked at the strategist: "My strategist, sit down and let's talk."

The strategist smiled slightly, pulled over a chair, and sat down in a grand manner.

"Okay, let's sit down and talk."
