Chapter 46: The Beginning of the Banquet Massacre

Chapter 46: The Beginning of the Banquet Massacre (Two chapters in one)

Jiangnan Base City, afternoon.

The sun is high in the sky, people are coming and going on the streets, men are refreshed, women are cool, it is a peaceful and prosperous scene.

Jiangnan Base City is one of the six main base cities in China, with a population of over 60 million.

With such a large population, the city naturally becomes a huge metropolitan area.

The outer ring is inhabited by civilians. The further inward you go, the stronger the economic strength becomes. And in the most core area, one needs sufficient power and status.

To the east of the core area, there is a manor covering dozens of acres.

This scene is almost unimaginable in the Jiangnan base city where every inch of land is valuable, and it can be called magical.

After all, even many wealthy people live in small villas of a few hundred square meters. If they want to obtain larger and more properties and land, they need sufficient status.

In the manor, crystal chandeliers hung above the spacious banquet hall, emitting soft light. The magnificent crystal columns were like slender pointers, guiding the guests attending the banquet to walk into them.

The guests were dressed in evening gowns, most of the men were tall and straight, and the ladies were either elegant or sexy. They talked quietly or raised their glasses to invite each other. Every smile and every eye contact showed their social wisdom.

In the center of the banquet hall, a huge round table was spread out, filled with delicious food, from exquisite dim sum to fresh seafood, each dish revealed the host's care and luxury. Waiters shuttled between them, carrying trays and serving fine wines to the guests. The mellow alcohol shone with an attractive luster under the lights. On the stage, a band was playing beautiful melodies, and the melodious music intertwined with the guests' laughter and chatter, creating a unique atmosphere. This is not just a banquet, but more like a feast for the eyes and ears.

Almost every detail reveals the gap between them and the civilians, as if the two lived in different worlds.

Chen Xiong was holding up a wine glass half full of red wine, his face flushed, and from time to time he raised his glass to the guests who came over to toast him.

Today is the celebration banquet for his eldest son Chen Tianqi’s breakthrough to become a high-level general.

At the age of 25, he is already a high-level warrior. This is enough to call him a genius. It is basically certain that he will achieve the level of a god of war in the future.

This will be the Chen family’s second God of War!

The purpose of today's banquet is to let the celebrities of Jiangnan Base City know that Chen Tianqi will be the future leader of the Chen family. At the same time, it is also to scare off those rats that are jumping up and down.

Previously, Chen Xiong's fifth son, Chen Tianlin, married the second daughter of the Lu family. However, at the wedding banquet, he heard that a young man favored by the second daughter of the Lu family came to steal the bride, and a conflict broke out. The young man crippled Chen Tianlin's genitals.

Although the news of this incident was intentionally intercepted by both the Lu and Chen families and did not become a big deal, there were quite a few guests present at the wedding banquet. In the upper class society, this incident had long been regarded as a topic of conversation and a joke.

"Has Lu Yong arrived?" Chen Xiong asked in a low voice to the old butler in a tuxedo who was following him.

The old housekeeper nodded gently, "Here they are, his wife and two daughters are here."

"Very good, where are they?" A smile appeared in Chen Xiong's eyes.

There was a hint of cruelty and teasing hidden in the smile.

He thought he could do nothing just by knowing a junior war god. He dared to tease the Chen family and even caused his son Chen Tianlin to have his genitals crippled. How could this matter be allowed to pass without paying a price?

"In the south area of ​​the banquet hall." the old butler replied.

Chen Xiong nodded and said, "Call Tianqi and come with me."

After saying that, he walked towards the South District.

The banquet venue is very large and is divided into four areas, with hundreds of people in each area.

Among these people, the most ordinary one has assets worth tens of billions, and above them are warriors and their families.

Ordinary billionaires are not even qualified to enter the banquet.

Soon, Chen Xiong arrived at the south area of ​​the banquet and met Lu Yong's family.

Lu Yong is a tall middle-aged man who looks very upright.

Next to him, there was a beautiful lady with a great figure. This was Lu Yong's wife, Ye Mei.

There are rumors in the upper class that Lu Yong’s wife Ye Mei was a little-known star before her great nirvana, but it is not known whether it is true or not.

But that temperament and appearance are indeed top-notch.

The wealthy and famous people and warriors around couldn't help but glance over here from the corner of their eyes while they were talking.

It's not just about Ye Mei, but also because there are two beautiful women standing next to her who are nearly 1.8 meters tall and have curvy figures.

The one with a more mature appearance is the Lu family's eldest daughter, Lu Bingbing.

The younger one was Lu Xue.

"Xue'er, you have to apologize properly later." Lu Yong looked at the celebrities coming and going around him. From time to time, he could see a general-level warrior. He was impressed by the power and reputation of the Chen family. He couldn't help but nag the girl next to him again.

Lu Xue's face looked obviously unhappy, but she still nodded obediently.

Ever since Chen Tianlin was deposed, Lu Yong has been withstanding the pressure from the Chen family, but it was not without cost.

Many of the Lu family's businesses are now either bankrupt or losing money. Needless to say, this is naturally a deliberate targeting by the Chen family.

If this continues, the foundation that Lu Yong has worked hard for for many years will be destroyed, so, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Chen family hosting a banquet for Chen Tianqi, he plans to bring his family to apologize to the Chen family and bow their heads.

Lu Yong is not a young man. He knows that if he continues to confront the Chen family, the outcome will be even worse. Now if he lowers his head, he can save their Lu family as long as he loses some face. How can he not do such a good deal?

However, Lu Yong looked at Lu Xue, who looked unhappy and a little irritated, and sighed helplessly, feeling a little disappointed, and said,
"I know you like that guy named Chu Liang, and I support you, but...

But look at that guy, hiding in the Warrior Community villa every day, what a coward! This kind of guy, even if he originally had the potential to become a war god-level strongman, in this case, it is estimated that he will only be a high-level general for his whole life. "

Lu Yong persuaded earnestly.

If Chu Liang works hard and makes progress, breaks through the obstacles of the Chen family and becomes a god of war, then Lu Yong will naturally be happy for him and his daughter Lu Xue to succeed, but now it seems alas!
"Okay, I get it. I understand everything." Lu Xue closed her eyes, took a deep breath, sorted out her expression, and forced a somewhat forced smile.

She was somewhat disappointed with Chu Liang's behavior of hiding in the base city, thinking that he was afraid of the Chen family.

But on the other hand, she felt that Chu Liang might be hiding and practicing diligently, waiting for enough strength.
But how long will this hiding last?
There was a hint of disappointment in Lu Xue's eyes.

At this moment, Lu Xue saw Chen Xiong walking towards her from a distance, and the confident and handsome young man beside Chen Xiong.

Lu Xue recognized the other person's identity. He was Chen Tianqi, Chen Xiong's eldest son and the protagonist of this banquet.

A 25-year-old senior warrior, from the most prestigious family background in Jiangnan City, he is extremely handsome and tall. I heard that he is also very self-disciplined and there are no bad rumors about him.

Lu Xue suddenly realized that the man she liked was not that good after all.

Just when Lu Xue was feeling mixed emotions and upset, Chen Xiong and Chen Tianqi walked towards Lu Yong's family.

When the people around saw this scene, they immediately showed expressions of watching a good show, and many people looked at Lu Yong with pity. When the Chen family was at its peak, they were troubled by the Chen family. Once the news got out, it was estimated that few people in the entire Jiangnan Base City would dare to approach the Lu family.

Lu Yong frowned, but he came here with the intention of apologizing and resolving misunderstandings, so he naturally couldn't avoid it.

Nor can it be avoided.

"God of War Chen." Lu Yong's thoughts changed rapidly, and he said to Chen Xiong with a respectful smile on his face.

Chen Xiong looked at Lu Yong with a half-smile, nodded casually, and then looked at Ye Mei who was standing next to Lu Yong, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

I have heard about how great Lu Yong's wife is, but Ye Mei rarely appears in public, so Chen Xiong just thought it was a rumor. Unexpectedly, the rumor was true.

It is indeed the best!

She has plump thighs and waist, full red lips and a pair of huge cantaloupes that are enough to make all men salivate. She is charming and passionate, with a hint of the special charm of a pure girl.

"Your wife is pretty good. In Jiangnan City, I think few can compare to her in terms of appearance and temperament." Chen Xiong couldn't help but praise.

Lu Yong's face froze and looked a little ugly.

What does this mean?
Lu Yong forced a smile, his broad body inadvertently covering Ye Mei, and then said,

"Chen Zhanshen is joking. My wife is just an ordinary woman."

"Ordinary?" Chen Xiong smiled faintly, and seeing Lu Yong's defensive and ugly look, he no longer had any intention of teasing.

But deep down, he had already decided that he must get this woman named Ye Mei.

The more powerful the warrior is, the stronger his physical desires will be. There is almost no warrior who is pure and desireless.

"There is something I want to discuss with Brother Lu in detail, about my son Chen Tianqi's marriage." Chen Xiong changed the subject.

The awkward atmosphere suddenly eased, and Lu Yong couldn't wait to continue the conversation.

"God of War Chen, you can speak frankly."

Chen Xiong pointed at the two beauties next to Ye Mei, and when Lu Yong's face changed slightly, he smiled and said,
"I plan to let Tianqi marry one of your daughters. What do you think, Brother Lu?"

"This..." Lu Yong was also confused by Chen Xiong's sudden move.

Aren’t there still conflicts between their two families?
However, in this situation, Lu Yong is in a dilemma. If he refuses the other party, he will probably offend the Chen family badly, and lose such a good opportunity to repair the relationship.

And if they agree, then who will marry Chen Tianqi?
Bingbing? Or Xiaoxue?
Xiaoxue might not be able to do that, because she is still thinking about the boy named Chu Liang.

But Bingbingbingbing is already engaged to the son of one of his best friends and they will be getting married next year, so it is impossible for her to marry Chen Tianqi.

"Why, is it possible that my Tianqi is not worthy of Brother Lu's two daughters?" Chen Xiong's eyes turned cold and he was a little unhappy. Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and said coldly,
"Or does your Lu family really intend to fight to the death with our Chen family? Brother Lu, you have to know that I have given you a way out this time. If you don't grasp it well, don't blame me for being unkind in the future."

After hearing this, Lu Yong felt aggrieved and angry.

But he didn't dare to turn against her.

The opponent was a mid-level god of war! He was much stronger than his life-and-death friend.

Just as the atmosphere gradually became solemn, Lu Xue, who was hiding in the back, stepped forward, looked directly at Chen Xiong and Chen Tianqi beside him, and said with a sweet smile,

"Father, I have long heard how outstanding Master Tianqi is. If I could marry him, I think I would be very happy."

Lu Xue's sudden action stunned Lu Yong, Ye Mei, and her sister Lu Bingbing, who had been standing silently by the side.

Lu Yong reacted the fastest, and quickly laughed and said, "Xue'er, stop messing around."

Before Lu Yong finished speaking, Chen Tianqi, who had been watching the farce with an indifferent expression, suddenly spoke up.
"I'm more interested in Miss Bingbing."

The atmosphere froze instantly.

Lu Xue looked at Chen Tianqi in astonishment, her face turning blue and red, feeling extremely embarrassed.

Is she being disliked?!

Lu Xue felt a chill in her heart and wanted to cry.

"I'm afraid Bingbing is already engaged to someone." Lu Yong's face looked a little reluctant, and his fists were clenched. As a father, he was even angrier when his own daughter was disliked.

Chen Tianqi didn't care about Lu Yong and Lu Xue's reactions and said calmly,
"I know that Bingbing's fiancé is the only son of Duan Zhanshen. My father has already talked to Duan Zhanshen, and he has agreed to cancel the marriage between his son and Miss Lu Bingbing."

"Impossible!" Before Chen Tianqi finished speaking, Lu Yong interrupted him and said angrily,

"Duan Lin is my Lu Yong's best friend. This marriage was decided by the two of us. There is no way I can go back on my word!"

"Ha, that's the fact. If you don't believe it, you can talk to God of War Duan." Chen Tianqi said lightly, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Friends for life and death?

Perhaps they were originally good friends who would support each other at all times, but after a long time, the gap between the two sides gradually widened, and problems were inevitable in this relationship.

The thing that changes most easily in this world is feelings.

"Okay, Tianqi, you should also respect Uncle Lu more, don't..." Chen Xiong said with a faint smile, and suddenly.

boom!
A loud bang was heard from the gate of the manor in the distance, interrupting what Chen Xiong was about to say.

"What happened? Who dares to cause trouble in my Chen family?!" Chen Xiong's eyes turned cold, and his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot. He rushed towards the gate of the manor and crossed hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye.

Arriving at the gate of the manor, Chen Xiong saw that the originally magnificent Chen family gate had been broken and collapsed into a pile of ruins.

His face turned pale as he looked at the giant man in golden armor holding a hammer standing at the door.

Huh?! Chen Xiong looked at the giant man in golden armor and suddenly thought of the group of people that the Bolenas family had found some time ago. Aren’t they all wearing golden armor and holding golden hammers?
In an instant, Chen Xiong's murderous intent surged.

The person in front of him was the one who killed his Chen family’s Yanfeng team!

Even if it is not, there is definitely a connection!

"I want you to die!" Chen Xiong roared, and a terrible force burst out. The high-quality suit on his body broke into pieces. His figure flashed, and he punched Chu Er.

Chu Er looked coldly at the attacking Chen Xiong. The power in his body reached the limit of a god of war, and with the added force of 1.4 times, his fist as big as a casserole suddenly exploded.

The two fists collided, and a figure flew backwards a hundred meters like rotten meat, with scarlet blood spraying in the air.
