Su Changfeng easily defeats Ning Yanshan's strongest fighter, demonstrating his overwhelming power. He then demands that Ning Yanshan return everything belonging to Yue Weilong within seven days, threatening to destroy the Ning Family if he fails. Ning Yanshan reluctantly agrees, while Su Changfeng arranges for Yue Qingshan and his family to be hidden for their safety.

But who would have thought Yue Qingshan would say, "I do not know him, but I feel he’s not a bad person."

Indeed, Yue Qingshan did not know Su Changfeng, but initially, Su Changfeng had mentioned there were some reasons for this, just that there was no way to discuss them now.

Yue Weilong nodded and said, "We were indeed lucky this time; otherwise, we probably wouldn’t have had any way to leave the Ning Family."

Speaking of the Ning Family, Yue Weilong recalled how Su Changfeng once defeated Ning Yanshan’s followers at the Ning Family’s place; he felt very surprised—how could Su Changfeng be so powerful?

Even someone as formidable as Su Changfeng was often labeled as a waste?

Zhou Yunqi had a place known only to himself, so he brought Yue Weilong and the others there, then returned directly to the Zhou Family.

At this moment, Zhou Yunqi was eager for Zhou Wang to know what he had seen at the Ning Family. Zhou Wang was reading in his study.

Generally speaking, no one would disturb Zhou Wang when he was in his study, but Zhou Yunqi had this special privilege because Zhou Wang was also curious about what Su Changfeng had done at the Ning Family.

Upon seeing Zhou Yunqi, Zhou Wang asked, "How did it go?"

So Zhou Yunqi began explaining in detail what he had witnessed, even mentioning the smallest details.

Listening, Zhou Wang’s emotions fluctuated—he felt very excited, yet also worried.

In fact, Zhou Wang knew the person who fought with Su Changfeng back then. He was a master under Ning Yanshan and had won several previous Martial Arts Competitions.

But who would have thought that when facing Su Changfeng, he would have no strength to resist and even from then on became useless.

What surprised Zhou Wang the most was that Ning Yanshan, that old coot, actually bowed to Su Changfeng.

Zhou Yunqi looked at Zhou Wang excitedly and said, "Su Changfeng even said something that has kept me feeling uneasy!"

Zhou Wang looked curiously at Zhou Yunqi, as he felt these events were already shocking enough. What else could Su Changfeng have said to keep Zhou Yunqi so excited until now?

Zhou Yunqi said, "Su Changfeng said that if, when the time comes, Ning Yanshan hasn’t achieved those tasks, Su Changfeng would completely make the Ning Family disappear from the Capital City!"

Even someone of Zhou Wang’s age was shocked on hearing these words.

Su Changfeng actually said to Ning Yanshan’s face that he would make the Ning Family vanish from this place. That’s truly extraordinary!

But later upon reflection, what Su Changfeng said seemed quite normal because Su Changfeng indeed had the ability to say such things.

Zhou Wang laughed and said, "Haha, that old guy Ning Yanshan really encountered such a thing in his old age. I bet he’s furious and turning green with anger!"

At this moment, Zhou Wang felt very pleased, fortunate enough to have known a powerful figure like Su Changfeng before anyone else discovered him.

Otherwise, the one facing these issues might have been himself!

But suddenly, as if remembering something, Zhou Wang’s face changed slightly as he looked at Zhou Yunqi and asked, "How’s it going with Su Changfeng’s company? Has our Zhou Family used all our resources?"

Zhou Yunqi shook his head and said, "No, you initially told me to take it slowly and observe Su Changfeng’s situation before further action, so we didn’t put in all our resources."

Initially, Zhou Wang indeed had this plan, but he suddenly remembered that Su Changfeng had agreed with Ning Yanshan to complete the tasks within seven days, otherwise, the Ning Family would vanish from the Capital City!

Similarly, Su Changfeng had also told the Zhou Family to use its resources to make Su Changfeng’s company as influential as the Ye Family within ninety days or even surpass it.

If the time comes and the task isn’t completed, Zhou Wang doesn’t know if Su Changfeng would get angry, but he knows that if Su Changfeng did, their Zhou Family would face the same dire fate!

"Have someone invest all resources," Zhou Wang said very seriously. "Although Su Changfeng’s words were directed at Ning Yanshan, they serve as a reminder to us as well!"

In such matters, Zhou Yunqi didn’t think as much as Zhou Wang. Hearing this, his heart skipped a beat.

Indeed, back then, Su Changfeng said that if the task wasn’t completed by the deadline, he wouldn’t spare the Ning Family. Isn’t Zhou Yunqi’s family in the same position with Su Changfeng?

Yet, Zhou Yunqi still doubted whether Su Changfeng could truly achieve such feats; though impressive in speech, accomplishing them might not be certain.

"Grandfather, do you think Su Changfeng really can make the Ning Family disappear from the Capital City?"

After all, the Ning Family has been rooted in the Capital City for many years, with deep foundations. Could Su Changfeng easily make them disappear? Isn’t that somewhat absurd?

If these words were spoken by someone else, Zhou Wang would not believe them either, considering the Ning Family isn’t an ordinary family.

But Su Changfeng isn’t an ordinary person either. If Su Changfeng truly belongs to Tuo Shi, then in his eyes, the Ning Family is nothing!

Even if the Ning Family is powerful, they are only so in the business arena.

But Tuo Shi is different. Tuo Shi operates outside the secular world, their strength incomparable to the Ning Family.

So Su Changfeng’s words indeed feel convincing.

Seeing Zhou Wang’s serious demeanor, Zhou Yunqi understood his intention, feeling a sense of shock.

If even his grandfather felt this way, perhaps Su Changfeng truly could achieve this!

At the same time, Zhou Yunqi also thought of something.

If Su Changfeng could really do this, it would be beneficial for the Zhou Family. Why not let Su Changfeng help the Zhou Family wipe out the Ning Family directly?

Thus Zhou Yunqi looked at Zhou Wang and said, "Grandfather, if Su Changfeng can really do this, should we take advantage and make the Ning Family disappear from this world?"

Zhou Yunqi could think of this, and naturally Zhou Wang could as well. But Zhou Wang simply didn’t have the courage to take such action now.
