Chapter 1183 - 1182: Kill Lü Peiwen
The crowd grew even more excited at this point, with some people practically itching to rush forward and attack Su Yang themselves.
Chen Benhong was even prouder, for Su Yang had been hit repeatedly and now he had completely gained the upper hand. What came next was for the Chen Family’s men to withdraw; he had nothing to worry about.
He took a deep breath and announced loudly, "All members of the Chen Family, retreat. We agreed to a duel. If you act this way, won’t I lose face before everyone?"
The people of the Chen Family clearly understood Chen Benhong’s intent and withdrew from the battlefield one after another. The leading elder sighed and said, "Hong’er, if it weren’t for this Su’s outrageous behavior, we wouldn’t have done this. But since he insists on acting alone, you should be the one to fight this battle!"
Those scions at the scene were not fools and immediately piled on the flattery, "Chen Shao is truly magnanimous, remaining so humane in dealing with such a person, setting an example for our peers!"
"Chen Shao needn’t bother with such formalities. All of this, Su brought on himself, he simply got what he deserved!"
"Chen Shao was kind-hearted just now, allowing him to go back and heal. Not only did he fail to appreciate Chen Shao’s good intentions, but he also injured members of the Chen Family heavily. It is natural for them to be outraged; Chen Shao need not save his face!"
"Indeed, such a scourge, no different from a beast, Chen Shao need not speak of morality or ethics with him!"
The crowd shouted in agreement, insulting Su Yang while exalting Chen Benhong. Everyone was well aware that today’s battle would propel Chen Benhong to a higher position. Therefore, building a good relationship now was crucial.
