“I’m saying, the second son of the Liang family will always be the second son. No matter what, it can’t change the fact that you are the product of your father’s drunken promiscuity.” Ye Xingchen clearly repeated what he had just said.
Liang Chenghu stared intently at Ye Xingchen with eyes that seemed to want to kill, and he squeezed out three words through gritted teeth: "You're asking for death..."
"I'm courting death, you can try touching me." Ye Xingchen chuckled, openly provoking Liang Chenghu.
Liang Chenghu moved his hand, clenching his fist tightly. At the same time, a faint glint appeared in his eyes.
"Second Master..." Just then, a middle-aged man behind Liang Chenghu stepped forward and grabbed Liang Chenghu's hand.
“It’s too close to Prison Mountain here, we can’t make a move.” The middle-aged man lowered his voice and said, “Ye Xingchen is not simple. We’ve done our best to fulfill Lord Jin’s request. There’s no need to break ties with Ye Xingchen here.”
A dark glint appeared in Liang Chenghu's eyes, then disappeared. He repeated this several times before finally letting out a long breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart.
Yes, this is Prison Mountain, and his identity is the second master of the Xu family, not the lawless land of the high seas.
Ye Xingchen's identity is indeed extraordinary. If a fight were to break out here, Ye Xingchen could mobilize the garrison from Prison Mountain in no time, which would inevitably lead to another bloody battle, and this would not benefit him at all.
"Ye Xingchen, remember how you treated me today. You better not show your face in Jinling, or you'll be sorry." Liang Chenghu pointed at Ye Xingchen and made a series of harsh words before turning and leaving.
"Hehe, Mr. Ye, until we meet again." The middle-aged man smiled slightly at Ye Xingchen.
"Who are you?" Ye Xingchen glanced at the man.
This middle-aged man should be Liang Chenghu's subordinate. This guy is a wolf in sheep's clothing. If I'm not mistaken, he's the kind of strategist who's always clinging to important figures.
"My name is Chen Guang, and I currently work under Master Liang," the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"You're quite pragmatic." Ye Xingchen smiled slightly. "I deliberately provoked Xu Er just now. If he really got angry and started a fight here, what do you think the consequences would be?"
“Since I’m with Second Master, I won’t allow such a thing to happen.” Chen Guang said with a smile, “As for Mr. Ye, he’s so shrewd at such a young age. His future achievements will surely surpass those of your father, Marshal Ye.”
"Thank you, is this a compliment?" Ye Xingchen grinned.
"This is my affirmation of Mr. Ye. We'll meet again." Chen Guang nodded slowly, then turned and left.
Once inside the Phantom, Liang Chenghu grabbed with his right hand, and with a crack, the wine glass in his hand shattered into powder.
At the same time, his right hand also changed; his palm was covered with a layer of grayish-brown scales, and his five fingers turned into four thick claws.
At the same time, his pupils turned into slits, like the eyes of a cold-blooded animal under bright light.
Moreover, when he blinks, a thin film covers his eyelids, and his whole aura becomes cold and sinister.
"Why did you stop me just now?" Liang Chenghu's voice was heavy, as if he were panting.
"Second Master, please calm down." Chen Guang was a little scared when he saw him like this: "If you show yourself in your Dharma form, Ye Xingchen will have even more excuse to attack you."
“This person is not simple. I tried to probe his strength by focusing my mental energy into his body, but I failed. It is clear that his strength far exceeds our imagination, and choosing to make a move in Prison Mountain is obviously an unwise move.”
Liang Chenghu plunged his right hand into the leather sofa of the car. He closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and when he opened his eyes, he had returned to normal.
He stretched out his palm, looked at it over and over, and then said in a deep voice, "After all these years, I still can't hide that Dharma form. Whenever I get angry, it turns into that."
"Second Master...there will be a way," Chen Guang said cautiously, his wildly beating heart finally calming down a little.
If Liang Chenghu hadn't been controlled properly in his current state, he could have easily gone out of control, and everyone in the car would likely have been seriously injured or killed.
Having been by Liang Chenghu's side for so many years, he knows Liang Chenghu's situation best. Fortunately, he is now able to control his emotions.
“Ye Xingchen… I have a feeling that I will have a confrontation with this kid in the future,” Liang Chenghu said in a deep voice.
"Does Second Master think so too?" Chen Guang pondered. "We need to investigate this guy's background thoroughly, after all, he is Ye Jinyu's son."
"Hey, like father, like son." Liang Chenghu took a deep breath: "This time, Lao Jin's son is probably going to die overseas."
“We don’t need to get involved in their feud,” Chen Guang said. “Jinluo City and the Holy Curtain on the high seas are both supported by the same force behind the scenes, but Jinluo City has been under too much pressure in recent years.”
"If Ye Xingchen kills his son this time and dampens Jin Zhihuan's arrogance, that would be a good thing."
"That's true," Liang Chenghu said to himself. "Why should we interfere? Wouldn't it be better to just watch from the sidelines?"
“That’s right, that’s why I stepped in to stop you, Second Master.” Chen Guang smiled slightly. “Second Master, why don’t you think about this: if Ye Xingchen defeats Jin Zhihuan this time… the three city lords will either die or be crippled. Do you think Jinluo City will change hands?”
"That's quite interesting. Whether it's Jinluo City, the Holy Curtain, or the reclusive families... we all serve the Holy Temple." Liang Chenghu muttered to himself, "And we are all under the jurisdiction of the Twelve Holy Temples."
"Old Jin and I both belong to the Seventh Holy Temple. If Jinluo City falls... who knows, I might be the one in charge of Jinluo City in the future?"
“That’s right, so why should we help Jinluocheng? It would be good to give them a helping hand when the time is right,” Chen Guang said with a smile.
"Haha, that's right. I wonder if Old Jin has any other sons. If he doesn't, his cultivation of the Rootless Scripture might lead to his line dying out." Liang Chenghu laughed heartily.
"I'm afraid not. Jin Zhihuan must be desperate this time. All five remaining prisons in the city have come out. If they can't reach an agreement this time, they'll probably just take action to snatch people away," Chen Guang said.
"Take people away? Do they really think China is some kind of place? The Seven Deadly Formations of the Five Great Eunuchs are powerful, but China is not a place that five eunuchs can break into. Let's just watch the show."
North of Prison Mountain, after Ye Xingchen and Liang Chenghu parted ways, Wang Jin came over.
"Do you have any information? What's the relationship between this guy and Jin Zhihuan?" Ye Xingchen asked.
