Chapter 1482: Chapter 1472: Reputation

A week flew by, Xu Ying was finally discharged, and Jiang Cheng sent her home before leaving.

As he walked down the street, he suddenly felt someone was following him. Jiang Cheng stopped in his tracks, feeling it intensify. He squatted down quickly, pretending to tie his shoelace, and glimpsed suspicious people from the corner of the mirror behind him.

Jiang Cheng suddenly felt these people were definitely connected to those four burly men. Jiang Cheng thought to himself, he hadn’t taken action or gone looking for them, yet they were delivering themselves to him.

Jiang Cheng thought, he’d ensure they won’t even regret coming. He looked around for a secluded place to make his move. Just what he needed, he took a path with fewer people, and proceeded.

Jiang Cheng walked briskly because he wanted to avenge Xu Ying, give her an explanation, and ease his guilt a little, to feel better.

These past days have been tiring for Jiang Cheng. He felt he owed everyone, owed Mengmeng, for not fulfilling his responsibilities, owed Xu Ying, because of his injury hospitalization.

Therefore, he needed to lay down his burdens, Jiang Cheng needed an outlet to vent! Actually, the followers saw Jiang Cheng choose this path, which thrilled them. They were delighted, soon they would beat Jiang Cheng into submission, to avenge their bloody grudge that night.

They might not beat that woman, but surely they could defeat this young man, right? Unfortunately, they hadn’t noticed the fervor in Jiang Cheng’s eyes. Finally, they reached a spacious desolate land, this was the outskirts. The government had purchased the land for development, but due to funding delays, construction hadn’t started, turning it into wasteland.

Jiang Cheng stopped walking, ten men rushed up, surrounding him. Jiang Cheng sneered: "I haven’t looked for you, yet you came running yourselves."

"Don’t get cocky, we were short on people that day, otherwise you’d have been reporting to King Yama’s Hall." "That voice was Long’s. His main issue that day was being misled by Xu Ying, and he underestimated her abilities, leading to getting beaten up confusedly.

Lost face in front of everyone, so today he’s full of confidence, determined to reclaim dignity, issue his roar, prove he’s still the strongest. To him, the man in front represented reclaiming that dignity.

Jiang Cheng looked around and said: "What are you waiting for? Scared not enough people? Then come on, if you’re scared, beat it. If not, fight me. Today’s father is in a bad mood, I’m gonna use you to vent my anger.

Jiang Cheng shouted these words out, his voice shaking the field. The ten burly men were shaken hearing the gut-wrenching shout.

The burly man under Long’s command accelerated, launching a flying kick directly toward Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng could feel the strength in Long’s leg, feeling the wind before the kick reaching his hair.

Jiang Cheng tilted his head, dodging the kick grazing his nose, and at that moment, he reached up grabbing Long’s leg, pulling it to pivot him against the chest of another henchman rushing from behind, and Jiang Cheng swiftly released, swinging a jab at an attacker from the side.

Long kicked the henchman away, falling to the ground himself, and then performed a kip-up, jumping upright to throw punches upward.

Jiang Cheng was extremely oppressed recently, full of rage. Now he’s releasing it due to lacking an outlet normally, today luckily these colorless men delivered themselves to him, hence unleashing punches and kicks.

Jiang Cheng let go, unleashing his full power with every move, connecting with the opponents, producing striking sound, giving Jiang Cheng an indescribable feeling of satisfaction.

Jiang Cheng leaped continuously, swinging repeatedly, striking relentlessly. Though burly in stature, Jiang Cheng’s blows were impactful too. Hence the burly men fell before Jiang Cheng one by one, until only one remained, that person was Jiang Cheng himself. Jiang Cheng roared: "Stand and fight, fight! Aren’t you great fighters? Why are you all down and not getting up? Did you train in toad style? There was no response from the field, as these people were truly beaten unable to stand, Jiang Cheng’s voice echoed through the valley.

Jiang Cheng dragged his weary body away from here, wanting to share this thrilling news with Xu Ying, wishing to see Xu Ying’s excited smile. Jiang Cheng staggered to Xu Ying’s house, just about to knock when suddenly the system tossed out an earphone, confusing Jiang Cheng, not having seen the system in ages, wondering why an earphone today.

Jiang Cheng put on the earphone, hearing Xu Ying’s threat not to let Mengmeng return, promising if she doesn’t return, she’d give Mengmeng a fortune.

Jiang Cheng clenched his fist, not expecting the one he cared for to stoop so low. Mengmeng was unwilling, arguing over the phone, and this Jiang Cheng heard clearly. Jiang Cheng suddenly recalled Xu Ying wanting to transfer money to Mengmeng in the hospital last time.

Jiang Cheng was incredibly angry, unable to suppress his inner rage anymore, directly pushed open the door, storming in.

"What did you just say?" Jiang Cheng pointed at Xu Ying, furiously demanding. His gaze turned fierce from anger, with eyes glaring red, taking the fury to the extreme. Xu Ying stared bewilderedly at the person before her, not realizing Jiang Cheng was right outside, at a loss just like a child.

"Jiang Cheng! She’s already gone, think about your future." Elder Xu appeared in the doorway. Looking at Jiang Cheng, his sinister gaze clearly revealing without doubt. Jiang Cheng felt a little unfamiliar seeing Elder Xu in his malicious demeanor.

The feeling Elder Xu gave was always kindly, like his own grandfather. In past lives, his grandfather was like that, however, passed away early, later his image fading in memory.

Jiang Cheng felt a bit melancholy thinking about it, glancing at Elder Xu, his eyes pained and hair grey. The anger was all for his granddaughter, unknowingly, Jiang Cheng lowered his head. He didn’t want conflict with Elder Xu due to his power, and a very important reason, he had already regarded Elder Xu as family. Despite knowing Elder Xu’s prestigious status, in the Hua Family’s main circle, oh! Correction, across sectors, maintaining high honor.

"Tomorrow there’s an event, might be away for a while, prepare yourself!" Elder Xu snorted glancing at Jiang Cheng and added irritably. Jiang Cheng glanced briefly at Xu Ying: "You rest first.

Xu Ying nodded blankly, obediently lying on the bed. Jiang Cheng seeing this pulled Elder Xu outside. Spoke outright: "Elder Xu, I’ve always considered you family. I’ll definitely listen to your words.

Listening to this, Elder Xu’s wrinkles softened. His complexion returned to normal, smiling: "Ah Jiang Cheng, I’ve also directly treated you as family. Though the Xu Family might amount to little, it’s still got some backing here at Hua Family. You haven’t lost out!"

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng bitterly laughed. There’s something he must clarify.
