Chapter 85: Why Should I Bother Reasoning with You?

Hiding in the room and not going out was a foolish move. Being cornered in a room was troublesome. Liu Yuan immediately led everyone to the first floor to face Chen Luo.

Liu Yuan was worried. The visitors weren’t bringing goodwill; they were seeking revenge so quickly.

Sigh, Heizi, why did you have to stir up trouble?

Liu Yuan carefully observed the opposing group’s numbers and breathed a sigh of relief. He had a slight numerical advantage.

If the other side was smart, they wouldn’t engage in an all-out fight. It would only result in mutual losses.

Both groups came to a halt, maintaining a certain distance from each other.

Pointing at the opposing group, Shu Yun said, “It’s them.”

Chen Luo coldly clapped his hands. “You really are brave, daring to bully my people, even the deceased ones. I can’t find a reason to spare you.”

Liu Yuan was startled. He had a special impression of Shu Yun. Her spells managed to penetrate his earthen shield.

There were also a few level two ability users in his team, but their spells couldn’t even penetrate half of his earthen shield.

The disparity was vast.

Liu Yuan’s intuition told him he wasn’t Shu Yun’s match.

Though unbelievable that he wasn’t a match for a woman, it was a reality before his eyes.

And now, Shu Yun appeared to be acting docile, seemingly expressing her grievances in front of this young man.

Was it because of financial power? That didn’t make sense.

The young man appeared particularly arrogant, looking at Liu Yuan’s group with a gaze that seemed to mock their impending doom.

Definitely couldn’t engage in a direct confrontation, but the other side was seeking revenge and they came so quickly, indicating they had a lot of confidence.

What to do?

Liu Yuan forced a smile. “Little brother, it’s our fault. We’ll return the heavy truck to you right away. How about we also compensate you with a ton of rice?”

Chen Luo sneered. “One ton of rice for one life lost on our side? Then how about I give you a hundred tons of rice to buy all of your lives?”

“How much resources do you have? Wiping you out is our prerogative.”

The other side grew displeased as well. They were being looked down upon.

Liu Yuan’s eyebrows furrowed. This young man was too arrogant, but arrogance had its reasons. Otherwise, who would be foolish enough to let him lead?

Young people were impulsive and cared about their reputation. If they didn’t provide some explanation, they might actually go through with their threats.

Even if they could win on their side, they might be left with just a dozen people. Numbers were an asset; they couldn’t afford any loss.

Liu Yuan glanced back at Heizi. This situation was caused by you, and you’re the one who has to make amends.

Liu Yuan shouted, “Bring Heizi over. Let him vent for them. This whole situation was sparked by Heizi. We can’t let everyone take the blame together.”

On Liu Yuan’s side, nobody actually wanted a real fight. If they could just sacrifice Heizi and resolve the situation, it would be ideal. Besides, Heizi was often arrogant, and many people had long grown tired of his behavior.

As Liu Yuan shouted, several people immediately subdued Heizi.

Heizi was bewildered and exclaimed, “Liu Bro, I’ve always been loyal to you. You can’t do this to me! Besides, it was the woman on the other side who attacked first.”

Liu Yuan had made up his mind and didn’t bother listening, waving his hand dismissively.

Heizi struggled desperately but couldn’t break free from the grasp of those restraining him.

Heizi was treated like a pawn and tossed over to Chen Luo’s side. Su Dazhu firmly held him down, not allowing him to escape.

Chen Luo sneered inwardly. Tossing someone over like a sacrificial lamb, thinking the matter could be resolved just like that? Impossible.

“I, Chen Luo, will always take revenge for any grievances!” Chen Luo’s determination was unwavering. In this life, if someone kicked me in the butt, I’d remember it forever!

Fine then, let’s give this Heizi a lesson first. He’s the one who caused this, right?

Chen Guang also stepped in to help, along with Su Dazhu, and they forced Heizi down to his knees.

Heizi’s face turned pale from fright, and tears and snot streamed down his face.

He cried out, “Big Bro, I didn’t know she was your person. Besides, it wasn’t just me who acted. Li Kui and Mao Er also got involved.”

Li Kui and Mao Er were terrified. You’re really not showing any loyalty at all, dragging others down with you even at the brink of death.

Chen Luo looked at Liu Yuan, his interest piqued. “What do you say?”

Liu Yuan clenched his teeth and turned back to whisper, “For the sake of everyone, I have to sacrifice you two as well. Bring them over here.”

Li Kui and Mao Er cursed and begged for mercy, not sparing Heizi and Liu Yuan from their tirade.

On Chen Luo’s side, a few more people stepped forward to restrain them.

Chen Luo’s voice turned cold. “What are you waiting for? Go ahead and slap them around a bit. Keep slapping until they drop dead.”

“Don’t use your hands, they’re too dirty. Use your feet, the stinkier, the better. Take off your shoes.”

Chen Guang was the first to take off his shoes.

Chen Luo’s expression soured. Oh boy, they really do stink.

But Shuyun didn’t seem to mind. She took a shoe and smacked Heizi’s face hard, then followed up with Li Kui and Mao Er.

“Smack” “Smack” “Smack”

There were three consecutive muffled sounds as the shoes hit the faces of Heizi and the other two, leaving their faces distorted.

Crying and begging for mercy, the three of them pleaded, “Big Bro, we were really wrong. We’re willing to join you and help you deal with Liu Yuan.”

Liu Yuan’s heart immediately tensed, but Chen Luo’s actions that followed prevented him from letting his guard down.

Firstly, the people from the same team as Shuyun and Yanli held a deep grudge against Heizi and the others. They picked up shoes and started beating them relentlessly. The sound of loud smacks echoed in the silent environment, accompanied by the constant screams of Heizi and the others.

It was so brutal that even those on Liu Yuan’s side couldn’t bear to watch.

Soon, Heizi and the others had swollen faces that they couldn’t even open their eyes anymore.

But was that it?

Weren’t they supposed to be slapped to death?

Each person took their turn, delivering several heavy slaps to Heizi and the others.

Chen Luo shouted, “Wang Ling, heal them.”

Wouldn’t it be a waste to have them die so soon?

People in line were still waiting to vent their anger.

Chen Guang even had the sole of his shoe fly off from the force of his slapping.

Chen Guang awkwardly remarked, “The shoe quality wasn’t great. It’s fine, I still have the other one.”

Shuyun, breathing heavily, had just found a few long wooden boards with nails sticking out.

She said with malice, “Use this to slap.”

After saying that, Shuyun led the way, and the nails on the wooden board pierced deeply into Heizi and the others’ faces.

Chen Luo clicked his tongue, “Seems like their skin wasn’t thick enough.”

After more than ten minutes, Heizi and the others were slapped to death, their faces completely disfigured.

Liu Yuan’s hands were trembling. He hadn’t expected these people to be so ruthless. No wonder they say not to offend women.

Liu Yuan muttered, “Alright, the ones who caused trouble are all dead now. You killed one of ours before, so let’s call it even.”

Chen Luo sneered, “Who said things could be so easy? Are these few lives worth the same as the lives of my people?”

“Not enough. None of you will have a good outcome.”

Liu Yuan couldn’t believe it, “Are you not going to reason with us at all?”

Chen Luo coldly snorted, “They made mistakes. We came to punish them. Should I not have confronted them and acted like nothing happened?”

“Furthermore, why should I bother reasoning with you?”
