769: Chapter 758: I Am the King of Zhonghai!
Teng Zhuhai had never seen someone as audacious as Ning Fan, who dared to act so presumptuously in front of him; his words sounded even more laughable to Teng Zhuhai.
Could it be that he came to Zhonghai and still needed Ning Fan’s consent?
What a joke.
Not getting angry on the spot was already a sign that Teng Zhuhai was trying to control himself; otherwise, he would have struck Ning Fan dead right there and then.
“Whether you need my consent or not, you can figure it out yourself.”
Ning Fan’s tone was quite impolite, and Teng Zhuhai completely failed to understand what kind of capital he had to be so arrogant here.
Suddenly, Teng Zhuhai remembered something—that Ning Fan had another title, that is, the Ninth Master, the underground emperor of Zhonghai…
Was it because of this?
Was it because of this that the other party became sensitive upon discovering someone from another power on his turf?
Thinking so, Teng Zhuhai shook his head again.
He now had an epiphany that Ning Fan was simply striking preemptively.
The other party had already guessed that the Yunteng Family would make a move, so they took action first and captured Teng Huayang.
“Hehehe…”
Teng Zhuhai suddenly laughed ominously, as if he was finally about to explode, his aura abruptly changed, and the long-cultivated majesty descended like Mount Tai bearing down.
Noticing Teng Zhuhai’s change in demeanor, Ning Fan’s eyes sharpened.
He had been toying with this old man for so long, and the other party finally realized that Ning Fan had been convinced from the start that there would be an inevitable battle with the Yunteng Family.
Whether it was for amusement or to intimidate, Ning Fan simply did not want the Yunteng Family to have it easy, even if it was just to disgust them.
“Your old man is really terrifying now!”
Ning Fan mockingly said to Teng Huayang, who appeared very anxious.
Was it finally time to take action?
Teng Huayang thought to himself, swallowing subconsciously and then preparing to rush toward Teng Zhuhai or Teng Nan at any moment.
Just then, Teng Zhuhai stood up, and Teng Nan and Teng Bei on the side were also ready to spring into action, a major battle seeming imminent.
However, Ning Fan still appeared nonchalant, his right hand resting on Teng Huayang’s shoulder, as if to say that as long as he held Teng Huayang, Teng Zhuhai wouldn’t dare to make a move.
And it turned out, Ning Fan was right in his thinking, as Teng Huayang, the next Family Head of the Yunteng Family, was very important to them.
If he died there, the face of the Yunteng Family would be greatly diminished.
Teng Zhuhai was already of age and wouldn’t likely have another offspring, and more importantly, those who cultivated the Evil Gu were known for their short lives, so he had to ensure Teng Huayang was safe before he could act.
“If you came here just to say these things, then you can leave now!”
Teng Zhuhai said coldly, issuing a direct order for Ning Fan to leave.
Hearing this, Ning Fan sneered and lifted Teng Huayang from his seat as if he were picking up a small chicken.
“Your dad is sending people away, let’s hurry up and go.”
In Teng Huayang’s bewildered expression, Ning Fan pushed him out of the loft, while Teng Nan and Teng Bei wanted to follow but didn’t dare to move without Teng Zhuhai’s order.
After Ning Fan and Teng Huayang left the place, Teng Nan asked Teng Zhuhai with confusion, “Master, are we really going to let him walk away like this, what about the young master?”
Teng Nan was worried about Teng Huayang’s safety, since Ning Fan was a dangerous man.
With Teng Huayang staying with him, who knows what could happen any day?
Moreover, it was clearly a good opportunity.
He couldn’t believe that with the three of them, they had no way to keep Ning Fan there.
But Teng Zhuhai glared at Teng Nan, who no longer dared to speak.
His authority was not to be violated, even though Teng Nan was only speaking out of concern for Teng Huayang’s safety at the moment.
“Yunteng family, I will wait for you in Zhonghai.
But rest assured, I won’t harm Teng Huayang.
I’m not that despicable!”
Downstairs, Ning Fan’s voice carried far and wide, causing the faces of Teng Zhuhai and others in the loft to change again and again.
Ning Fan’s arrival today was like slapping their faces several times over.
Because of Teng Huayang’s situation, they were completely put on the defensive, constantly being led by the nose by Ning Fan.
Teng Zhuhai’s face was as still as water.
He let Ning Fan go this time because he feared Ning Fan might lash out at Teng Huayang in desperation, but next time, he wouldn’t give Ning Fan that chance.
Teng Zhuhai was a cautious man.
Unless he was absolutely sure, he would never make a move, and this was guessed by Ning Fan.
Ning Fan dared to take such a risk today because he was confident.
“Shangguan Tanglong, send my regards to Shangguan Tenglong.
Also, I’m a doctor myself.
If everyone in the Shangguan family is willing to kneel and apologize to me and Qiuran, saving Shangguan Tenglong’s life wouldn’t be impossible.
Lying in bed as a cripple is quite miserable!”
When Ning Fan passed by the Shangguan family’s hall, he saw Shangguan Tanglong staring at him from a distance.
Ning Fan directly shouted towards him, turning Shangguan Tanglong’s face an iron blue.
Ning Fan’s visit today not only disgusted the Yunteng family for a while but also deepened the Shangguan family’s impression of him.
As they watched Ning Fan and Teng Huayang leave the Shangguan family’s gates, Shangguan Tanglong didn’t dare to let out a peep.
“Uncle, why don’t we take him down before he leaves Jiangcheng?”
Suddenly, Shangguan Yunyang approached and whispered into Shangguan Tanglong’s ear.
Shangguan Tanglong’s eyes widened.
He instinctively surveyed his surroundings, and after letting out a sigh of relief, his face was still not looking great.
He stared at his nephew Shangguan Yunyang and scolded, “Be careful with your words.
Do you realize what you are saying?
Ning Fan now has Teng Huayang as a hostage.
Even the Yunteng family dares not act rashly.
What nonsense are you talking about!”
If the Yunteng family could remain calm and not move against Ning Fan, their Shangguan family had even less right to act.
If they were to attack Ning Fan and cause harm to Teng Huayang, their Shangguan family would be doomed, and it would be too late to regret.
Such a move was absolutely unthinkable for them.
Moreover, not to mention, who among their family now could deal with Ning Fan?
Even Shangguan Tanglong himself had been defeated twice by Ning Fan.
So, Shangguan Yunyang’s suggestion was immediately rejected by Shangguan Tanglong.
But Shangguan Yunyang sneered and whispered again, “Then we take action against Teng Huayang!”
“You, what are you planning to do?!”
“Uncle, don’t you understand the principle of ‘borrowing a knife to kill someone,’ ‘watching the fire from the other side of the bank’?
If Teng Huayang dies at the hands of Ning Fan, will the Yunteng family just let it go?”
