At least I can die with you
Zhou Peisheng, the pillar of the Zhou Family, bowed as he apologized.
The current Patriarch of the Zhou Family, Zhou Guangcai, knelt on the ground.
Following the submission of this father and son duo, it meant that Jiangbei's number one family was bowing their heads to Chen Yao.
Not long before tomorrow, Chen Yao's name would spread throughout the entire upper echelons of Jiangbei City.
Three moves maimed Iron Palm King Copper Mountain, ending his undefeated ten years of Jiangbei King myth.
Old Man Zhou personally bowed to apologize, and Zhou Family's Patriarch Zhou Guangcai acknowledged his apologies.
One by one, this group of people was destined to become the topic of discussion for the upper echelons of Jiangbei society after meals and meals. Since then, Chen Yao had gradually risen like a new sun.
The Old Man Li was Chen Yao's firm backing. If the Old Man Zhou had lowered his head, then did that mean that as long as Chen Yao could help the rumored Tang Hengqiu of the Celestial Dragon Gang to step into the ranks of inner strength experts?
Terrifying thoughts began to rise in everyone's hearts. When they looked at Chen Yao again, their gazes were no longer filled with bewilderment or reverence. Instead, they were filled with reverence.
No one had expected the situation to develop to this point. The Zhou family had experienced hundreds of years of hardships in Jiangbei, when had it ever become like this? Old Man Zhou was eighty years old and he actually had to lower his head to a young man who was just a little over twenty?
Everyone sighed.
Chen Yao's gaze swept across the crowd before finally landing on the Zhou father and son duo.
"Enough, get up."
Chen Yao knew that if he continued to oppress the Zhou father and son duo, it would be counterproductive. His current strength was just the right amount.
After Chen Yao finished speaking, Zhou Guangcai stood up, looked at Chen Yao, and said with a low voice.
"My Zhou family has already submitted to you. Do you know what price you will have to pay for not being able to cure my father's illness?"
Old Man Zhou did not speak, but his gaze on Chen Yao was just as sharp.
That's right. The reason why the father and son had lowered their heads today was not because they feared Chen Yao's martial power or background. Instead, they had submitted to his unfathomable medical skills.
If Zhou Peisheng wanted to live, he had to make Chen Yao lower his head.
If he was stabbed to death, he would be happy, but Zhou Peisheng's sickness was slowly killing him. Waiting for death was the most terrifying thing.
However, if Chen Yao was not able to save him in the end, then Chen Yao was purposely playing with the Zhou Family, playing with Zhou Peisheng. At that time, the entire Zhou Family would definitely go all out to deal with Chen Yao.
Chen Yao would definitely die, but his death would definitely not be a happy one. He would definitely die miserably, and all those who were related to Chen Yao would suffer all kinds of accidents.
A clan with a hundred years of history would definitely not be an ordinary clan.
If Chen Yao could successfully cure Zhou Peisheng, then it would be fine too, but if he could not, then the Zhou family would have to regain the glory of being the number one family in the north of the river.
Killing Chen Yao was not enough to restore the Zhou Family's reputation. Destroying Old Man Li was something that their Zhou Family needed to do.
Chen Yao was no fool. Naturally, he knew exactly how powerful they were.
He looked at Zhou Peisheng and said.
"Three days. Three days later, I will personally pay a visit to Zhou Mansion."
Zhou Peisheng nodded.
"The Zhou family welcomes Your Excellency's visit. If Your Excellency does not arrive on time and is unable to cure this old man of his illness, then my Zhou family may have to let Your Excellency down."
Zhou Peisheng's tone of voice was very flat, but it was especially imposing.
Chen Yao smiled but did not say anything.
Furthermore, even if he did not treat Zhou Peisheng's illness, with his current strength, how could he be afraid of retaliation from the Zhou Family?
Chen Yao dragged Li Mengran's Maserati and turned to speak to Li Mengran.
"Come, tonight's pavilion's delicacies are destined to be unbearable, send me home."
Li Mengran smiled, she was extremely beautiful, causing Chen Yao to momentarily fall into a trance.
… ….
10 minutes later, the Maserati stopped beside Chen Yao's rented house. Chen Yao bid his farewell to Li Mengran and got off the Maserati s, preparing to return home.
But Li Mengran suddenly got off the carriage and walked over to Chen Yao's side.
"Wait a moment."
Chen Yao was stopped by Li Mengran.
Chen Yao turned and looked at Li Mengran in confusion.
"Anything else?"
Li Mengran clenched her fist and said.
"Chen Yao, I'm sorry, but if I didn't bring you to the pavilion for dinner tonight, then you wouldn't have gotten into such trouble. But don't worry, even if you can't cure Zhou Peisheng's cancer, I would still do my best to help you.
Although Li Mengran had personally witnessed the miraculous scene of Chen Yao treating his grandfather, Zhou Peisheng's illness was even more severe.
Even if Chen Yao was the successor of an ancient doctor, his medical skills had yet to reach the stage where life and death could be reversed, right?
Therefore, Li Mengran was extremely worried about Chen Yao, and all of this was caused by him.
Seeing Li Mengran's stubborn look, Chen Yao's heart warmed.
Just as Li Mengran had thought, Chen Yao did not have the ability to reverse the flow of life and death, but as long as it was someone who had died before their time, Chen Yao could let them live.
If he died from the cancer, he would only be considered dead, not dying from a natural death. There wouldn't be a Yin Division from the Underworld that would come to hook his soul, and he would only become a ghost.
Thus, Chen Yao was able to extend Zhou Peisheng's life for as long as ten years. In addition to Chen Yao's own strength and the super mystical Trilogy, Chen Yao naturally had someone he could rely on.
However, Li Mengran's performance still moved Chen Yao's heart.
He wanted to probe Li Mengran out so he said.
"How could a weak girl like you deal with such a large and well-connected hundred-year family of the Zhou family? Although the Lee's military is powerful, but it is a group enterprise. Different from the Zhou family's family business, the Zhou family will join together and unite against the outside world when facing the rain and wind, but the truth is that in the Lee's military, only your grandfather is struggling to survive. In the event of a disturbance, the people in the company will fall and scatter. "
"Lee Group does not have the confidence to fight the Zhou Family to the death."
Every word that came from Chen Yao's mouth told Li Mengran to see through everything. This was something that Li Mengran had never thought of before, and her face immediately became deathly pale.
If he lost the Lee's military's support, what could a lowly person like himself do for Chen Yao?
Li Mengran lowered her head, firmly biting her lips, her delicate fists tightly clenched, her nails digging into her flesh, with faint traces of blood flowing out.
After being a white swan for 20 years, only today did she feel that she was so lowly and powerless?
Seeing Li Mengran's performance, Chen Yao could not bear to see, wasn't his words too excessive?
The difference between the Lee's military and the Zhou Family was much clearer than what Chen Yao had seen. However, he had never mentioned it in front of Li Mengran because he was afraid of burdening Li Mengran with too much burden.
One day, the heavy burden of being a Lee's military would fall on Li Mengran. If Li Mengran didn't understand the difficulties involved, how would she be able to support the great Lee's military when that day really came?
Chen Yao was just about to console Li Mengran, when Li Mengran who was upset suddenly raised her head, and looked at Chen Yao with an extremely determined gaze.
"Even if I can't deal with the Zhou family, at least I can die with you."
