Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Kneel and Apologize

Staring at Xiao Gu, who was trembling all over like a half-dead dog.

This great Elder of the Alchemy Master Guild.

Jiang Chen’s expression was as calm as still water.

He was simply looking at a dog.

With his status, why would he care about such a minor character?

As for the rest of the Jiang Family, they were petrified, not knowing what to do.

"What... what should we do, Patriarch?"

"Is the Young Master going to beat Elder Xiao Gu to death?"

"That would put the Jiang Family in a terrible position."

Everyone worried that Jiang Chen would kill Xiao Gu in the very next moment.

Jiang Han gave a bitter laugh.

"How am I supposed to know what to do?"

Then, they watched as Jiang Chen bent down and lifted Xiao Gu, as easily as picking up a toy.

Xiao Gu looked at Jiang Chen up close. Jiang Chen’s eyes were still glinting with a chilling, unnatural coldness.

Xiao Gu, however, clearly felt the threat of death.

It was the first time he, a dignified Elder of the Alchemy Master Guild, had ever been beaten into such a miserable state by some kid.

But with less than a tenth of his Cultivation remaining, he was completely unable to resist Jiang Chen and could only dangle helplessly in his grasp.

Before he could speak, Jiang Chen started walking toward the Jiang Family members, still holding Xiao Gu.

"What is he doing?"

"Yes, he’s carrying Elder Xiao Gu over here. What on earth is he planning?"

To this moment, every member of the Jiang Family felt as if they were in a dream.

This Young Master was too ferocious; he always kept them on edge.

They had no idea what Jiang Chen was about to do.

Jiang Chen walked until he was a few meters in front of Jiang Han, still carrying Xiao Gu.

THUD!

He threw Xiao Gu to the ground.

He barked, "I’ll give you one chance to live. Kneel and apologize to my father."

"Your tone must be sincere and your attitude respectful. Otherwise, you die today!"

’What?’

Jiang Han nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

’This son of mine is going to be the death of me!’

He was terrified of Xiao Gu, and now his son was forcing the man to kneel and apologize to him.

He hurriedly tried to stop Jiang Chen.

"Son, no! You absolutely must not do this."

"You’ll bring ruin upon the Jiang Family."

But Jiang Chen was unmoved. He looked at Xiao Gu and declared, "I, Jiang Chen, swear that anyone who dares to harm a single hair on my family’s head, I will ensure they die without a grave."

"I don’t care if they’re an ant or a Daluo Golden Immortal."

"As for the Alchemy Master Guild, if I’m not satisfied with it, I’ll destroy it. I’ll see it annihilated."

’The Alchemy Master Guild was something I built with my own hands in my past life.’

’If I want to destroy it, I can.’

’It’s only a matter of time.’

’I can just build a new Alchemy Master Guild.’

The members of the Jiang Family gasped.

Jiang Han didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. ’How can my son be this infuriating?’

’Making vows at a time like this.’

Of course, he didn’t know that everything Jiang Chen said would come true.

Xiao Gu was subdued, but as an Elder of the Alchemy Master Guild, he was naturally full of pride.

He roared angrily, "You want me to kneel and apologize to Jiang Han? Jiang Han, I ask you, would you dare accept it?"

Jiang Han’s legs trembled with fear. Of course he didn’t dare to accept.

He was just about to speak when a sharp crack echoed out.

SLAP!

Everyone whipped their heads around to see Jiang Chen pulling his hand back from Xiao Gu’s face.

It was Jiang Chen. He had viciously slapped Xiao Gu.

This made the jaws of the Jiang Family members drop wide enough to fit an egg.

Jiang Chen had slapped Xiao Gu.

Pulling his hand back, Jiang Chen stared coldly at Xiao Gu.

"I’m giving you a choice. Don’t be a fool."

"Kneel!"

Xiao Gu’s head was spinning from the slap.

’He was slapped by Jiang Chen. This is unbelievable.’

But the blow also knocked some sense into him.

He knew that if he didn’t apologize today, Jiang Chen would absolutely not let him go.

If he wanted revenge, he first had to leave the Jiang Family alive. Otherwise, what revenge could he even speak of?

He steeled himself.

THUD!

He knelt before Jiang Han.

Jiang Han froze, completely at a loss.

’This son is going to be the death of me!’

’This damned, unfilial son!’ Jiang Han’s heart pounded in terror.

Xiao Gu was kneeling to apologize to him. He was actually doing it.

Just as he stood there helplessly, Xiao Gu had already spoken with a sincere attitude, "Patriarch Jiang, I was wrong. I apologize for my previous disrespect. Please forgive me."

Jiang Han stumbled again.

He waved his hand and sighed, "Forget it. You should just go."

He said weakly, feeling powerless. The situation had developed far beyond his expectations.

What should have been a good thing had now turned into a disaster.

He had no idea how he would face the inevitable retaliation from the Alchemy Master Guild.

Xiao Gu was ecstatic. He could finally escape.

A vicious glint flashed in his eyes.

’Jiang Family... Jiang Chen... I, Xiao Gu, will turn you all to ash.’

Thinking this to himself, he got up to leave.

"Wait!"

Just then, Jiang Chen suddenly spoke again.

Xiao Gu’s heart skipped a beat.

Xiao Gu, who had been about to leave, shuddered.

He was now terrified of Jiang Chen, with no idea what new torment the kid had in mind.

He heard Jiang Chen say coolly, "Leaving just like that? You clearly have no respect for me."

"Come with me. We’re going to have a little chat. Whether or not you leave here today will depend on your good fortune."

’What?’

Xiao Gu’s legs nearly gave out, and he almost collapsed.

’The kid still won’t let me go.’

As for the Jiang Family, they were utterly despairing.

Even now, the Young Master was still being so aggressive.

This was guaranteed to make Xiao Gu hate the Jiang Family to his very bones.

’Can’t you just stop, Young Master Jiang Chen?’

They all wanted to scream it, but in the end, no one said a word.

They watched as Jiang Chen led the way, with Xiao Gu following him into a room.

At that moment, the members of the Jiang Family, including Patriarch Jiang Han, all stared at one another in stunned silence.

An expression of panic was on every face.

Jiang Men gave a bitter laugh. "Brother, I’m afraid the Jiang Family is done for."

"Jiang Chen has doomed us all this time."

Originally, everyone had been grateful to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen had changed the Jiang Family’s destiny, and even the destinies of many individuals.

But what Jiang Chen was doing now was simply going too far.

"That’s right. He shouldn’t have provoked Elder Xiao Gu."

"After all, Xiao Gu is an Elder of the Alchemy Master Guild. He’s incredibly influential."

"Once he gets back, he’ll bring people for revenge. Even if the Jiang Family were ten times stronger, we couldn’t withstand the wrath of the Alchemy Master Guild."

Jiang Han sighed in despair.

「Inside the room.」

Jiang Chen said coolly, "I forgot to ask, why did you come to the Jiang Family?"

He had just remembered that Xiao Gu’s visit seemed to have a purpose—he had been looking for Jiang Chen himself.

Hearing Jiang Chen’s question, Xiao Gu finally remembered that he was supposed to be inviting Jiang Chen to the Alchemy Master Guild.

But now, not only had he failed to invite Jiang Chen, but he had been beaten black and blue by him instead, his body covered in wounds.

Still, he seethed with hatred for Jiang Chen.

He would naturally have a story to tell when he returned.

"Our President wishes to see you."

He said, not daring to provoke Jiang Chen any further.

"I don’t care what your purpose is. Go back and tell your President that I am not someone he can meet just because he wants to."

"Now, scram." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Oh, and I forgot to mention... don’t even think about getting revenge on the Jiang Family. Otherwise, you will die a very, very miserable death."

"The consequences are not something your Alchemy Master Guild can afford to bear. Do you understand?"

Jiang Chen warned Xiao Gu, his words laced with ice and severity.

He knew that Xiao Gu undoubtedly harbored deep resentment.

But if he dared to take revenge on the Jiang Family, Jiang Chen’s methods would be more terrifying than anyone could possibly imagine.
