"..."
The crowd fell silent upon hearing this, feeling that the words had some depth and needed to be carefully considered.
"Brother Liu, what if they're being dishonest and refusing to admit it?" Zhang Chulan asked again.
“Then take your knife and follow me… to the Wang family and kill Wang Gou.” Zhou Fengliu returned the greeting with a “kind” smile.
"..."
...
Zhou Fengliu is now very confident, not only because he has a lot of underwear, but also because he didn't use the opportunity to send a celestial master down the mountain.
The "Celestial Master descending the mountain" technique is absolutely effective in the world of supernatural beings...
...
Under Zhou Fengliu's philosophy of "persuading people with reason," the group rested for a day before heading to the Wang family compound with high spirits.
now.
Inside the Wang Family Compound.
Wang Ai listened to the servant's report while leaning on his cane.
"Useless...all useless! You sent out so many people, and not even one of them kept an eye on that kid?"
"No...but according to the last group's report, Zhou Fengliu and Wang Ye have joined forces...and are investigating us together," the servant replied.
“Wang Ye…” Upon hearing this name, Wang Ai frowned and fell silent. Not far from him, the silly Wang Bing was wearing overalls and dancing to music.
"If this doesn't work, withdraw the people monitoring Wang Ye and focus all your efforts on dealing with that kid..."
Seeing his great-grandson's current state, Wang Ai issued this order.
“Uh…” The servant was silent for a moment, then said, “The key thing is… we’ve also lost contact with the people watching Wang Ye… I guess they’ve wiped them all out.”
“…” Wang Ai.
Just as Wang Ai remained silent, a young man surnamed Wang walked in from outside.
"Old man... there are a few people outside who say they are looking for you."
"Looking for me?" Wang Ai raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. "I didn't make an appointment with anyone. What's your name?"
"He claims to be someone who knows everything... I think his name is Zhang Chulan, Zhou Fengliu or something like that."
"Zhou Fengliu?!"
Upon hearing the name, Wang Ai was somewhat surprised: "Are you sure?"
"Sure."
"Alright, let them in..." Wang Ai instructed the person who reported to go and find more people, waiting for him to smash the cup as a signal. He then sat quietly in the solid wood chair, waiting for Zhou Fengliu's arrival.
Before long, Zhou Fengliu and his group, dressed in the uniform of Na Du Tong, arrived in the hall. When they saw Wang Ai, they all showed different expressions.
"Grandpa Wang... it's been a long time." Zhang Chulan greeted Wang Ai with a smile and a scratch on his head.
"What brings you young people here?" Wang Ai glanced around and noticed that besides Zhou Fengliu and Zhang Chulan, there were also Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing.
“Of course, we’re here to reason with them,” Zhou Fengliu interjected, then sat down opposite Wang Ai and continued:
“Grandpa Wang, we are all reasonable people, and we do things honestly and uprightly. There’s no need for us to do anything underhanded.”
"What do you mean?" Hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Wang Ai realized that these people had come to interrogate him.
"You know what I mean, I've already brought the people."
Zhou Fengliu pointed at Wang Ye, then took out his Killer Blade from his bag and threw it in front of Wang Ai. He also placed the Tongtian Talisman, one of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, on the table.
"I'm here too... How much was the bounty again? Fifty million for capturing me... One hundred million for killing me, right? And there's the Heavenly Scroll here, a total of two hundred and fifty million, all laid out in front of you."
"Haven't you always wanted to mess with me? Well, with so many people witnessing this, I'll give you the chance..." Zhou Fengliu said with a strong aura.
This powerful aspect not only intimidated Wang Ai, but also Wang Ye and others who came with Zhou Fengliu.
Wang Ye quietly asked Zhang Chulan, "Didn't we come here to reason with each other? What happened to convincing people with reason?"
"I...I don't know either."
Zhang Chulan said he was also curious, as he had just been smiling and preparing to reason with Wang Ai, but before he knew it, things had turned out like this.
"What? Pick up the knife."
Seeing that Wang Ai hesitated to take out his knife, Zhou Fengliu got up and stuffed the Thousand-Knife Killer into Wang Ai's hand.
“I’m right here… giving you a chance,” Zhou Fengliu said.
Seeing Zhou Fengliu so close, Wang Ai suddenly realized that Zhou Fengliu was giving him a show of force. Just as he was about to avenge his great-grandson, Zhou Fengliu withdrew his knife the next second.
Zhou Fengliu took back the Thousand Blades of Killer, pointed at Wang Ai, and said, "I gave you a chance, but you were useless. I'm already here... what are you still pretending for?"
"Boy! You've gone too far!"
Wang Ai reacted and slammed the teacup on the table to the ground. People outside heard the sound of the cup breaking and immediately came in. In an instant, there were thirty or forty people in the hall.
"..."
Seeing this scene, Zhang Chulan swallowed hard, his expression somewhat uneasy, and Wang Ye was equally uneasy.
"This is much better... Stop hiding things, just put everything out in the open..."
When Zhou Fengliu saw that Wang Ai had finally revealed his true intentions, he nodded in satisfaction.
"You brat...you're really bullying me to the extreme! You really think you can take advantage of me, Wang Ai, like I'm some kind of old man!"
Wang Ai, wanting to occupy the moral high ground, pointed to Wang Bing, who was still singing and dancing not far away:
"I haven't settled the score with you for beating up Bing'er at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony! Look at the state he's in now..."
"Isn't this quite lively?"
Zhou Fengliu looked over and saw that Wang Bing had combed his hair into a middle part and was wearing overalls. Although he looked silly and had a tongue sticking out of his mouth, you could tell that the kid was full of energy.
Chapter 119 Persuading with Reason! (Second Update)
"You call that being lively?!"
Listening to Zhou Fengliu's words, Wang Ai pointed at Zhou Fengliu, Zhang Chulan, and the others, and continued:
"What exactly do you want?! Are you bullying our Wang family because we have no one to rely on?" At this moment, Wang Ai really felt like "a bunch of village children bullying an old and powerless person," feeling like he was being treated arrogantly by the younger generation.
“We’re here to reason things out, but you, Grandpa Wang, are being a bit unreasonable. You even came up with the idea of smashing a cup as a signal, and suddenly so many people popped up to scare us.”
Zhou Fengliu glanced around at the dozens of people who had suddenly appeared and spoke.
"Is this how you talk about reason?" Wang Ai pointed at the knife in Zhou Fengliu's hand and the Tongtian Talisman on the table. He said that Zhou Fengliu's domineering attitude just now was hardly the way to talk about reason.
"Of course, you said you spent so much manpower, resources and money to find someone to arrest me and Wang Ye, and look... I brought them all here."
"The Heavenly Scroll you wanted, I, Wang Ye, and even my head are all here." Zhou Fengliu looked at Wang Ai, paused, and then said:
"Am I being unreasonable?"
"Of course, we're not here to cause trouble at the Wang family. We're here today to settle things. We must have some evidence to have found this place. Old Master Wang, you don't need to pretend you don't know anything."
“I’ve brought everyone here. Let’s get this straight today. Once we step out of this door again, you must withdraw all the people you sent out, and you must promise never to send anyone to watch us again.”
...
Hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Zhang Chulan and the others raised their eyebrows slightly, truly not expecting Zhou Fengliu to understand reasoning in this way.
What a brilliant example of persuading people with reason!
They almost misunderstood Zhou Fengliu, thinking that he was using his fist, which he called "Zhili," to cause a ruckus at the Wang family and force Wang Ai to back down.
They're just too narrow-minded.
They thought Zhou Fengliu was on the first level, but in fact, Zhou Fengliu was on the third level.
...
"Fine, you've got guts. Since you've put it that way, I'll go along with your suggestion."
Upon hearing Zhou Fengliu's words, Wang Ai glanced at Wang Ye, Zhang Chulan, and the others.
“I have no grudge against you. You can all leave. Once you walk out this door, my Wang family will not cause you any trouble.”
"Thank you, Grandpa Wang..." Zhang Chulan was somewhat surprised to hear the voice. He was astonished that things had progressed so smoothly.
“They can all leave... but you can’t.” Wang Ai ignored Zhang Chulan, turned his gaze to Zhou Fengliu in front of him, and then slowly said:
"I need to settle my score with you regarding my son."
"Oh?"
Upon hearing Wang Ai's words, Zhou Fengliu raised an eyebrow:
“Grandpa Wang, I gave you a lot of face at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony. You said my attitude wasn’t proper, so I did my best. Now you’re blaming me, a junior? Isn’t that a bit… unreasonable?”
"You went all out... and you beat my Bing'er like that?" Wang Ai's old face darkened, and then he said:
"Anyone can leave today, but you can't."
