The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1230 - 1229: Taking the Initiative to Go Out

The maid couldn't help but let out a sigh. At this moment, Su Changfeng appeared to her as a completely clueless fool. While Wang Junyi might not casually take a life, he certainly wasn't stupid. If he found a discreet location to end Su Changfeng, who would ever know?

"To be perfectly honest, you're just a piece of trash. Even if your life were to be extinguished, nobody would shed a tear. Wang Junyi possesses countless methods to eliminate you without leaving any trace. Do you grasp the situation now?" the maid pressed.

Su Changfeng let out a soft chuckle. He had heard such words countless times before. Hearing them again now brought back vivid memories of his time in Jiang City.

Back then, when Su Changfeng first joined the Shen Family, he endured a barrage of disdainful glances. At that juncture, having just been cast out by the Ye Family, his indifference to external treatment was absolute.

Now, his character had become exceptionally resilient. Such pronouncements held no weight for him whatsoever. Truly powerful individuals harbor no fear of idle gossip. It is only the weak and self-pitying who react like a startled cat when faced with such provocations.

However, Su Changfeng now possessed ample strength to decisively silence his detractors. Consequently, their opinions held no consequence for him; he remained utterly unconcerned.

"If you doubt my words, you are welcome to test the waters and witness if I can return alive," Su Changfeng stated, choosing to disengage from the maid and proceeding to exit.

The maid's brow furrowed. She mused that this 'waste' at least possessed some nerve. Yet, it was merely the audacity of an ordinary man. He failed to comprehend his own standing, daring to challenge Wang Junyi.

"You may not be aware, but Wang Junyi is a man of extreme ruthlessness. If you are truly set on self-destruction, do proceed. However, when regret becomes unavoidable, it will be far too late," the maid conveyed with a grim expression.

Su Changfeng strode past, seemingly oblivious to her words. While a Fourth-rank expert in Tianshui City represented a formidable master, their power was only marginally superior to Earth-level experts like Tuo Shi. Naturally, Su Changfeng harbored no fear.

"Thank you." Recognizing her concern stemmed from a place of genuine care, Su Changfeng offered a polite expression of gratitude before continuing on his way.

The maid's expression darkened further. She remained baffled by the 'waste's' internal musings. "Trash, you will soon bear the full consequence of your reckless choice!"

With those words uttered, the maid hastened her steps toward Shen Rushuang's chambers. Now that Su Changfeng had departed from the Shen Family's premises, it was imperative for her to promptly relay this information to Shen Rushuang.

At that very moment, Shen Rushuang was engaged in her bathing ritual. Her alabaster skin possessed a smoothness akin to frost and snow, a temptation few men could resist. Even the young maid found her gaze drawn, blushing slightly at the sight.

"Miss, Su Changfeng has just left the premises," the maid announced.

From within the confines of the bathtub, Shen Rushuang's composure remained undisturbed. She responded with a soft, "That is for the best."

"Miss?" The maid looked on, utterly bewildered. It was common knowledge that Wang Junyi's retainers had been lying in wait outside, anticipating Su Changfeng's departure. With him now venturing out, his demise seemed all but certain. How could her young lady possibly deem this a positive development?

"Naturally, it is advantageous. If he were truly the disgraced scion of a prominent family, he would inevitably reveal his identity to Wang Junyi, instilling apprehension in him. This spares me considerable trouble," Shen Rushuang explained with nonchalance.

Upon hearing this, a spark of understanding ignited in the maid's eyes, and she offered a smile, bestowing praise, "Miss is, as always, profoundly perceptive."

Was Su Changfeng an idiot? Certainly not. His strategies were far beyond the grasp of ordinary people. What he was doing was, in fact, offering Wang Junyi an opportunity.

If the trouble posed by Wang Junyi wasn't dealt with early on, who knew what future complications might arise? He couldn't remain a part of the Shen Family indefinitely, could he? Moreover, he had arrived with a specific mission and needed to locate Chen Qingqing swiftly.

In reality, Su Changfeng harbored another intention. Given that Wang Junyi was the son of the city lord, if he could be swayed to his side, Su Changfeng would gain a considerable advantage within Tianshui City. This, in turn, would make finding Chen Qingqing considerably less arduous.

Naturally, the success of all these plans was contingent upon Chen Qingqing being in the same city, Tianshui City, as himself.

Whenever this particular matter crossed his mind, Su Changfeng would invariably feel a headache. After all, he was a man; his prolonged unconsciousness might not be a significant issue. However, Chen Qingqing was different. She was merely a young girl. If someone with malicious intent were to abduct her, he couldn't even begin to fathom the terrible consequences.

Once outside the city's confines, Su Changfeng proceeded directly to a less frequented locale. Hardly anyone frequented this area, and assuming Wang Junyi wasn't foolish, he would undoubtedly make an appearance.

However, after traversing for approximately half an hour, Wang Junyi still hadn't materialized, and Su Changfeng's patience began to wane. He simply halted his advance and declared, "The opportunity is laid out before you. If you still refuse to emerge, I shall simply return."

Upon hearing this, the individuals who had been concealed in the shadows finally revealed themselves. Wang Junyi stood at the forefront, possessing a robust physique reminiscent of Wang Tianhu. His very presence, solely based on his build, was enough to instill apprehension in many.

"Are you Su Changfeng?" Wang Junyi inquired.

"Indeed, I am. After observing me for so many days, you still question my identity?" Su Changfeng retorted.

Wang Junyi let out a cold snort and demanded, "Since you are aware of my prolonged surveillance, how do you dare to emerge? Who granted you such audacity?"

"I was contemplating asking you the very same question. Who gave you the nerve to scrutinize me for days on end? Do you not perceive that I am extending you a chance today? Should the worry not be yours?"
