Chapter 277 Provoked the Wrong Person (Long Chapter)
```
At the center of the overwhelming pressure where Su Chen stood, he remained unflinching, seemingly unaffected in the slightest.
Just then, the figure in the purple robe flashed, immediately darting towards Su Chen like a lingering shadow.
Somehow, a whip had appeared in his hand, about two meters long, wrapped in cowhide with a layer of small steel rings encircling it. Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire
Just looking at such a whip was enough to send a shiver down one's spine, let alone the damage it would inflict upon striking flesh—a guarantee of skin tearing and flesh bursting!
What was even more terrifying was that three sharp hooks dangled from the tail end of the whip!
Suddenly, the man in the purple robe lashed out with the whip toward Su Chen, its trajectory incredibly strange!
The whip tore through the air, bringing forth a burst of strong wind and crackling sounds as True Yuan radiated from it, casting a faint milky glow.
Su Chen watched the ferocious whip hurtle towards him yet casually extended a hand as if reaching out to catch a leaf falling from a tree!
When the man in the purple robe saw this, a cold sneer immediately curled the corners of his mouth.
This young man is far too arrogant, thinking you understand the power of my whip?
But in the next instant, the man in the purple robe stood completely dumbstruck, his face a mask of idiocy and shock, as if he had seen a ghost!
Because he saw—the young man in front of him had indeed caught his whip so nonchalantly!
What shocked him even more was that after the young man caught the whip, he could no longer control it in his hand!
The purple-robed man was most proud of his skill with the whip!
He never imagined that not only could this young man effortlessly catch his full-force strike but also control the whip, rendering him unable to wield it!
At that moment, Su Chen gently pulled, drawing the whip towards himself, and the man in the purple robe, following the force, was pulled closer to Su Chen!
In an instant, he was only three to four meters away from Su Chen, which shocked the man, and he immediately sensed the danger.
He hastily let go of the whip, attempting to retreat and put some distance between himself and Su Chen!
But it was already too late, as Su Chen struck out with a palm from afar, and a surge of robust True Yuan burst forth!
"Ahh~~~"
The man in the purple robe was sent flying backward like a kite with its string cut, crashing into the stairs and finally landing heavily on the ground.
The two iron posts of the staircase were completely deformed from the impact, indicating the immense force of the collision!
As the man in the purple robe fell to the ground, he couldn't help but look down and saw a bowl-sized hole in his abdomen, his intestines already spilling out; he knew he was about to die...
"You... actually have... Qi Refinement... Eighth Layer..."
At this moment, he looked up at the young man, his eyes full of terror!
He clearly sensed that the thickness of the True Yuan released by the young man could only be achieved by someone above the Qi Refinement Eighth Layer!
This fact completely overturned his understanding; a man in his twenties with cultivation above the Qi Refinement Eighth Layer was simply inconceivable!
"Oh no, I haven't finished cooking dinner yet!"
Immediately, Wang Ma hurried back into the kitchen to busily resume her work...
......
It was the same nightclub, the same private room where Liu Qing, Lin Chao, and Ma Yuemin once again gathered.
However, today they weren't as high-spirited as before, their faces expressing a mix of heaviness and dejection!
"Lin Chao, your family's patriarch is way too biased," Ma Yuemin commented with a hint of sarcasm:
"You're the eldest legitimate grandson, yet he transferred all his shares to Lin Ruoxue alone!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Chao's expression grew even darker. Indeed, the fact that the old man gave all his shares to his granddaughter Lin Ruoxue was a clear slap in the face to him, the eldest grandson!
"Yeah, Lin Chao, how did your family's patriarch suddenly make such a decision?" Liu Qing also asked with some confusion.
"I suspect the old man has guessed that it was our doing with the poison, but due to family ties, he refrained from taking any drastic actions," Lin Chao said, frowning deeply:
"By doing this, he hopes to crush our ambitions. After all, this puts Lin Ruoxue in absolute control of the shares."
"But you really went too far, not even sparing your own grandfather!" Ma Yuemin said lightly, glancing at Lin Chao with an ironic twist of his mouth.
After that horrific incident, Ma Yuemin had become much more radical and cared less about others' feelings when he spoke.
Before, he would never have made such a remark to someone's face, but now, he was indifferent.
As expected, Lin Chao exploded as soon as he heard Ma Yuemin's words.
"What are you implying, Mr. Ma?!"
"Isn't it obvious? You're shooting yourself in the foot," Ma Yuemin retorted disdainfully with a sneer.
Lin Chao's face immediately clouded over with anger, and his fists clenched tightly...
Seeing the two on the verge of conflict, Liu Qing quickly tried to mediate:
"Gentlemen, please, let's be reasonable. We're all on the same side. What's this all about!"
Being the Liu Family's heir, Liu Qing's words carried significant weight:
"Brother Ma, what you said just now was indeed inappropriate. After all, Lin Chao is one of us," Liu Qing said calmly to Ma Yuemin.
As Ma Yuemin was about to respond, Liu Qing gestured with his hand, and Ma Yuemin swallowed his words.
Liu Qing then turned to Lin Chao and said:
"I have to say, Lin Chao, your strategy of using poison wasn't very wise. I told you to handle your family's patriarch, not to kill him!"
"And what do you mean by that?" Lin Chao responded irritably, feeling as if Liu Qing was just harping on after the event:
"You don't know how much the old man valued that girl, Lin Ruoxue. It was almost impossible to get his support for me. Otherwise, why would I have done something with such high risks?"
"Lin Chao, why do you always focus on the patriarch? Why can't you think about the problem from a different angle?" Liu Qing said slowly, his eyes narrowing with a fleeting glint of cold shrewdness passing through them...
