The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 744 - 741
Chapter 744: 741
In the cramped living room of the dilapidated bungalow, Ye Chenfeng sat on a slightly damaged high-back chair, with Brother Hu standing to the left of Ye Chenfeng. Liu Haoguang, Liu Haoran, Liang Mufan, and Lu Jiang, these four men stood before Ye Chenfeng, their heads bowed, whereas Han Chuxue and the other three women remained in the room on the right, not stepping out.
As Ye Chenfeng looked at Liu Haoguang and the others before him, their heads hung like children who had done wrong, he knew that Liu Haoguang and Liang Mufan could not entirely be blamed. After all, a few rotten apples were inevitable in a large gang. Therefore, having realized this, the expression on Ye Chenfeng’s face eased considerably.
"Alright, no more dark looks, the matter of today ends here. I won’t pursue your responsibility any further," Ye Chenfeng said to Liu Haoguang and the others standing before him.
"Sect Leader Ye, the fault today was indeed ours. It was my failure to manage Victory Sky Society properly that allowed such scum to appear within our ranks. It is only right for you to hold us accountable, Sect Leader Ye. I, Liu Haoguang, am willing to accept punishment," Liu Haoguang bowed deeply to Ye Chenfeng, maintaining the position as a student who had made a mistake would before their teacher.
"Sect Leader Ye, I, Liang Mufan, do not wish to shirk responsibility either. Since such a harmful element has emerged within Heavenly Saber Association, then it is only right that I face your punishment, Sect Leader Ye. Please do punish me! Otherwise, I would find it unsettling," Liang Mufan said, then bowed deeply to Ye Chenfeng as well, his demeanor pleading for Ye Chenfeng to administer punishment.
"Sect Leader Ye, we beg you to punish us as well," said Liu Haoran and Lu Jiang in unison after exchanging a look, together bowing deeply toward Ye Chenfeng.
The scene unfolding before Ye Chenfeng was immensely frustrating. Who actually enjoys seeking out punishment nowadays? It seemed he had no choice but to punish them today.
"Little Hu, go outside and bring in four machetes for me," Ye Chenfeng instructed Brother Hu beside him.
Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s order, Brother Hu immediately brought in four machetes and handed them over to Ye Chenfeng.
Ye Chenfeng tossed the four machetes onto the ground, saying with a smile, "Alright, since you all wish to be punished, pick up a knife each and cut your throats."
Liu Haoguang and the others, still maintaining their bowing posture, inhaled sharply upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words and seeing the machetes thrown before them. Liu Haoguang was the first to pick up a machete from the ground, and the other three quickly followed suit.
Liu Haoguang spoke, "The error I committed today indeed warrants death as an apology. If the former brothers of Victory Sky Society knew Sect Leader Ye had nearly been surrounded by a thousand men when you visited my turf, they wouldn’t let me off either."
As Liu Haoguang led the way, all four of them began to draw their machetes across their necks.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Just as the blades were about to touch their necks, an authoritative presence burst from within Ye Chenfeng, causing the machetes in Liu Haoguang and the others’ hands to fall to the ground.
"Now that the punishment has been dealt, let us discuss serious matters," Ye Chenfeng said with a smile.
The backs of Liu Haoguang, Liu Haoran, Liang Mufan, and Lu Jiang were drenched with sweat. They felt as though they had just skirted the edge of death. Had Ye Chenfeng not stopped them in time, they would have not hesitated to slit their throats.
But who in this world is not afraid of death? Moreover, Liu Haoguang and the others had been influential figures in Yun City, living comfortably; the idea of suicide was absolutely unthinkable under normal circumstances. However, since the command came from Ye Chenfeng, who possessed strange powers and held immense respect in their hearts, they compelled themselves to offer death as an apology.
The breathing of Liu Haoguang and the other three was erratic, and now they dared not bring up the matter of punishment again, saying repeatedly, "Thank you, Sect Leader Ye, for your forgiveness... thank you, Sect Leader Ye, for your forgiveness..."
Ye Chenfeng nodded slightly and said, "Liu Haoguang, after all, Victory Sky Society is a gang I established. Going forward, do your best to lessen the emergence of such harmful elements. If an ordinary person were in the situation today, wouldn’t they have died at the hands of those trash?"
"We may be part of the underground forces, but we must still adhere to principles of decency. Starting from tomorrow, you will immediately reorganize Victory Sky Society. If I come to Yun City again and encounter such trash, then you no longer need to hold the position of leader."
After lecturing Liu Haoguang, Ye Chenfeng turned his gaze toward Liang Mufan and said, "Liang Mufan, Heavenly Saber Association has nominally been taken over by me. However, I will not be overly involved in the affairs of Heavenly Saber Association in the future. So from tomorrow, reorganize Heavenly Saber Association, kick out those who should be expelled, and do not hesitate to kill the ones who deserve death."
Ye Chenfeng paused for a moment before continuing, "Lastly, remember this, you must strictly scrutinize those joining the gang, especially the core members and the many high-ranking ones. You must screen them all over again for me."
"You two just need to remember these points," Ye Chenfeng said, his gaze fixed on Liu Haoguang and Liang Mufan.
"Yes, Sect Leader Ye, I will firmly remember your instructions," Liu Haoguang immediately responded.
"Sect Leader Ye, I will start to reorganize the Heavenly Saber Association as soon as I get back," Liang Mufan said respectfully.
"Alright, you can leave after you clean up the bodies outside," Ye Chenfeng waved his hand at Liu Haoguang and the others.
Liu Haoguang looked at the night sky, which was gradually darkening outside, and cautiously said, "Sect Leader Ye, why don’t I treat you to dinner tonight!"
"I’m not in the mood for food today; besides, I’ll have other opportunities to come to Yun City. Next time I visit, you can treat me," Ye Chenfeng said to Liu Haoguang.
Consequently, Liu Haoguang and several others left the dilapidated bungalow.
...
While Ye Chenfeng was dealing with matters of the Victory Sky Society and the Heavenly Saber Association in Yun City, a group of people appeared at the door of the Ye family’s villa in Capital City. This group included both old and young, men and women, totaling six individuals.
If Ye Chenfeng were here, he would have immediately recognized these people. Among them, a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman were none other than his aunt Sun Meixin and her husband Zhang Feng! And the little girl of six or seven, held in Zhang Feng’s arms, was their daughter Sun Xiaomei.
The other three included an elderly man in his seventies, none other than the Sect Leader of the Ghost Doctor Sect, Ji Dingtian! The remaining two, a man and a woman, were Qin Yi and his woman Xue Shanshan, who had not accompanied Ye Chenfeng back to the Secular World and had stayed at the Zhen Tian Gate.
The clothes on this group of people were somewhat ragged. Qin Yi had a scar on his chin that had not completely healed, and the expressions on the others’ faces were also quite unsightly.
"Cough cough cough cough!"
Ji Dingtian suddenly coughed violently, and then, with a "splat!" he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, making his face even paler.
After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ji Dingtian asked Qin Yi, "Qin Yi, is this the Secular World residence of Chenfeng?"
Since Qin Yi had previously spent time following Ye Chen in the Secular World, he naturally knew where the Ye family’s residence was. Somewhat weakly, he nodded and said, "Yes, the boss’s home is right here."
"Good, let’s go find Chenfeng immediately," said Ji Dingtian, and headed towards the Ye family villa.
At the entrance of the Ye family villa, the guards had already noticed Ji Dingtian and the oddly dressed group. Upon seeing these people trying to enter the Ye family villa, they immediately raised their guns, aiming the dark muzzles at Ji Dingtian and his group. One of the guards demanded, "Who are you? What business do you have with the Ye family?"
Facing the threatening muzzles, Ji Dingtian and the others frowned. Each of them had suffered severe injuries, and the fact that they had managed to make it to the Ye family residence in the Secular World was no small feat. They had been sustaining themselves purely with willpower throughout the journey.
Right at that moment, a Mercedes-Benz van slowly approached the Ye family villa. Inside the van were Sun Boyi, Sun Yang’an, and others; Ye Donghua and Sun Meiqin had taken the Suns to tour Capital City.
When Ye Donghua, who was driving, and Sun Meiqin, sitting in the passenger seat, first saw the people at the entrance of the Ye family villa, the pair were taken aback.

A storm was likely about to erupt once more! (To be continued. If you enjoy this novel, please support the author by voting at qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
