Master Head of the Dragon Soul novel Chapter 54

Li Ziyang deliberately held his head up, as if to demonstrate his stubborn pride in his family name. He had no idea whether that last trump card of his was effective on Chu Feng, so he put on the front of a man with nothing to lose and roared, “If push comes to shove, you’re going down with me!”

There was a saying in psychology that when humans feared the worst, their fear turned to rage. And now, Li Ziyang was just one straw away from breaking the camel’s back—

“Going down with you?” Chu Feng gave him an aloof glance, then scoffed. “You’re not fit to do even that.” Just then, Chu Feng received a call. After glancing at it, he put the call on speaker but did not say anything, and simply savored his tea while the caller spoke.

“M-Mr. Chu, I humbly apologize for the disrespectful behavior of that twerp, Ma Jun. I’ve already taught him a lesson by stripping him of all his positions at the Chamber and sending him for gold-mining in Africa, so that he may rot there. Please spare him, Mr. Chu…” A voice that sounded obedient, almost subservient and begging for mercy, made Li Ziyang’s face fall and his eyes widened when he recognised who it was.

Ma Sanyuan of the Chamber? This man had been childless his whole life and spoiled his nephew, Ma Jun because of this. That was why Ma Jun was quite lawless even among the elite circles of Jiangling, and Li Ziyang himself was not exempt from showing him respect. But now, Ma Sanyuan had exiled his precious nephew to Africa, just so Chu Feng would show him mercy? What in the world?

“Got it.” Chu Feng said simply, as if he was merely ticking a minor item off a checklist.
