Chapter 1180 - 1179: Chen Benhong, You Want to Challenge Me?
The speaker was a dandy from the Capital City, provoking laughter from many people as soon as the words left his mouth.
"Young Master Ling is right, that Su Yang, he surely won’t dare to come tonight!"
"He’s good only at blustering, relying on his minor abilities to bully the average person. But tonight, this occasion, even if he had the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, he wouldn’t dare to come here and cause trouble!"
"Of course, just look at who is presiding over the Purple Lotus Garden tonight, that’s the Chen Family’s very own Chen Benhong!"
"With Chen Shao here, Su Yang is bound to be terrified just hearing the wind. Chen Shao’s name alone could scare the piss out of him. Lady Frost, you’re fated not to see him tonight!"
"Indeed, with Chen Shao here giving him ten gallbladders wouldn’t embolden him to come!"
The crowd burst into conversation, some ridiculing Su Yang, some praising Chen Benhong, creating an extremely lively scene.
Chen Benhong’s eyes showed some complacency, but his face carried a modest smile as he waved his hand and laughed, "You all flatter me too much. Today, all of us from the Capital City are gathered here, and it is our unity that is key. This Su Yang is despicable and shameless, his methods sinister. He has killed countless in the Capital City, disregarding its rules, and has become the common enemy of us all. If he dares come today, I, Chen Benhong, will be the first to not let him off!"
Chen Benhong pretended to be modest with this speech, but in reality, the moment he spoke, he revealed his ambition. He wanted to take this opportunity to leave a better reputation amongst these dandies of the Capital City, thus enhancing his own prestige.
He was no match for Lü Donglin, nor dared to provoke him. But dealing with Su Yang, he had more than enough confidence.
Also, the recent deeds of Su Yang in the Capital City were not insignificant, and dealing with Su Yang would certainly boost his reputation.
