I will burn books and slay gods.

After the Mo family leader warned Huaihua about the strength of Chen Ye and the other two, Huaihua wisely turned around and went downstairs without looking back.

Afterwards, the leader of the Mo family went into the private room and closed the door.

They then sat down; the private room was quite well-furnished.

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and the person outside said, "Guests, this is the rice wine that my boss's wife has brought to you."

"Come in," the Mo family leader replied.

Then the door was pushed open, and the waiter we had just seen downstairs entered. He was carrying a wooden tray with a wine pot and four wine cups on it.

After the waiter placed the wine pot and cups on the table, he said, "Please enjoy, guest." Then he bowed and backed away, closing the door behind him.

At this moment, the Mo family leader picked up the wine pot and poured the wine from it into the cups one after another, saying as he poured, "The three of you should definitely try this famous wine from Huatian Restaurant, Zhanhua Brew. You will absolutely love it."

Chen Ye picked up a cup and brought it to his nose to smell it.

Indeed, a floral fragrance wafted out and entered his nose. Chen Ye then took a sip, and a fruity aroma mixed with an indescribable floral scent bloomed in his mouth.

It was slightly sweet at first, but had a strong aftertaste. Chen Ye was explaining to the Mo family leader, who had just taken a sip but was caught, "Young friend Chen, it's not proper to drink in big gulps here. Eat a small bite of food and sip a small sip of wine; that's how you truly appreciate the aroma of this 'Sliced ​​Flower Brew'."

Chen Ye then put down his wine glass. Just then, the door was knocked on again. With the permission of the Mo family patriarch, the person who entered was a man. The dishes here were all exquisitely carved, and the presentation was so enticing that it could stimulate the appetite of the guests.

Once all the dishes were placed on the table, there were ten different types of dishes, a mix of meat and vegetables.

At this moment, the Mo family leader pointed to one of the dishes and explained, "Young friend Chen, why don't you try this dish and see what you think?"

At the recommendation of the Mo family leader, Chen Ye picked up a piece with his chopsticks, placed it on his plate, and took a bite.

When Chen Ye took a bite, he was surprised to find that the dish was so delicious.

Under Chen Ye's praise, Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming, who were sitting to the side, couldn't resist the aroma of the dishes either. They picked up some food with their chopsticks and praised it as they ate, saying, "Delicious, delicious, really good."

"If you like it, that's good. If you like it, that's good." The Mo family leader nodded and said.

……

At the same time, another group of people entered the Huatian Restaurant on the first floor.

Meanwhile, the proprietress, who was still serving customers on the first floor, saw a group of people come in and couldn't help but think to herself, "What a wonderful day it is today, so many people have come to eat."

The proprietress then approached him. Upon seeing his appearance, she instantly became reserved and walked up to the customer, her face showing some fear. "What brings you here, Mr. Wang?"

When the proprietress saw that it was the proprietress of Huatian Restaurant, the "Master Wang" she mentioned revealed a lecherous look on his face. "Oh my, isn't this Sister Huaihua? It's been so long! Have you missed your brother?"

A hint of disdain flashed across the proprietress's face, a subtle expression that went unnoticed, but a young man standing behind Master Wang noticed it.

Before Master Wang and the proprietress could react...

“Pah!”

A loud slap landed on the landlady's face before Mr. Wang could even react, and she was already lying heavily on the ground, her hair disheveled.

However, when the original Master Wang saw this scene, he did not intervene.

The reason for this was that the person who made the move was none other than Huo Lie, the eldest son of the Huo family, whom he had personally invited to the Huatian Restaurant.

His temper was just like his name—extremely irritable!

The proprietress, who had just been slapped hard, was helped up by the waiter who came to her side.

The waiter, disregarding who the other person was, demanded fiercely, "Who are you, daring to move around here...?"

Before the waiter could finish speaking, the proprietress hurriedly stopped him, "Anzi, don't say that... I must have done something wrong to make this young master so angry. I apologize to him here."

Huo Lie didn't continue attacking the two. Instead, he pointed to Room Number One on the third floor and said, "Clear that room for me. I want to go there and drink!"

After Huo Lie finished speaking, the proprietress looked troubled, and at this moment, Master Wang walked up to her.

"Sister Huaihua, don't be reckless. This is someone you can't afford to offend."

The proprietress stood up shakily and explained, "Young master, there are already people inside. There's nothing we can do but ask the guests inside to come out. We hope you can arrange for another room, but don't worry, I will prepare more 'Zhanhua Wine' for you."

Huo Lie immediately retorted angrily, "Today, I'm going to eat in Room Number One of the 'Heavenly' VIP rooms. I'd like to see who dares to disrespect me. Besides, do you think I need your wine? That's ridiculous!"

Immediately afterward, Huo Lie strode towards the third floor right before everyone's eyes.

At this moment, Master Wang walked up to the landlady and asked, "Who is in room number one?"

"It's...it's the Mo family head, he's inside the room," the proprietress explained softly.

When Master Wang heard that it was Old Man Mo in that room, a wicked smile crept across his face. He then followed Huo Lie to room number one on the third floor.

The other guards, who were also standing on the first floor, followed Huo Lie step by step up to the third floor.

At this moment, Anzi, who was supporting the proprietress, whispered to her, "Didn't you just tell me that Master Mo said those three people inside are not to be trifled with? Should I warn them?"

"Not someone to mess with?" the proprietress said to Anzi. "Who cares if he's easy to mess with or not? Let Huo Lie be the scapegoat first. That way we'll find out if that Mo family head is just bragging!"

Then Huo Lie and his companion went up to the third floor and successfully reached the first room in the VIP section.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone on the first floor, Huo Lie pushed open the door and led the other guards inside. The guards then closed the door, and no sound came from inside the room.

Everyone was waiting for something big to happen, but nothing did.

……

At this moment, inside Room Number One (Top Rank).

Chen Ye was startled by the sudden sound of the door being pushed open, and even Wang Xiaoming, who was eating, almost vomited up the food he had just put in his mouth.

At this moment, the head of the Mo family saw that the person who entered was Huo Lie, and behind him was Master Wang.

"Old dog Wang!" the Mo family leader blurted out, then stopped a moment later.

When Wang Xiaoming heard the Mo family leader call the old man following Huo Lie "Old Dog Wang," he couldn't help but sneer.

Hearing this sneer, Old Wang was furious. "Where did this brat come from? So rude! I'll throw you off the building!"

At this moment, Huo Lie spoke up, "I thought it was someone else eating here. It turns out it's you, Master Mo. My future father-in-law, look how ungrateful I am, daring to suddenly barge into your private room. I'm truly sorry."

Huo Lie's face was full of provocation, as if to say, "If you have the guts, then make a move. What can you do to me?"

Immediately afterwards, Huo Lie snapped his fingers, and the guards behind him brought out a stool from somewhere and placed it under Huo Lie, after which Huo Lie sat down.

He rested his arm on the dining table, propped his face up with his palm, and gave a provocative look as he scanned the four people at the table.

The Mo family patriarch managed to control his temper and didn't throw a punch. Instead, he lowered his voice and said, "Huo Lie, give up. I will never marry my daughter to you. Just forget about it!"

The Mo Clan Chief's eyes were sharp as he stared intently at Huo Lie. At that moment, Huo Lie chuckled softly, a hint of helplessness in his voice, "Clan Chief, you know your answer is irrelevant. I only need to listen to one person, and you know you're someone I can't afford to offend!"

After hearing Huo Lie's words, the head of the Mo family clenched his fists even tighter.

Huo Lie's gaze then swept over the head of the Mo family and landed on Chen Ye. "Oh ho, who is this young master? I've never seen him before. Could he be some kind of bastard?"

The guards behind Huo Lie immediately mocked him.

Chen Ye ignored Huo Lie and continued to eat with his chopsticks.

Seeing himself ignored, Huo Lie's neck veins bulged, his face contorted in a ferocious expression, and he glared fiercely at Chen Ye. "You dare ignore me? Do you want to die?"

In an instant, the dining table that was just in front of them was overturned, with food and drinks spilled all over the floor.

Then, Huo Lie stood up again and walked up to Chen Ye, tauntingly saying, "Kid, are you tired of living, daring to ignore me!"

Chen Ye remained quietly seated on the stool, his chopsticks still holding the fish that had been on the table. His gaze fell on Lin Su, his eyes seeming to say, "I want to kill him, is that alright?"

Lin Su seemed to understand the message Chen Ye was conveying to her, and then she shrugged and said, "Whatever."

Then Chen Ye looked at Huo Lie in front of him, who was still provoking him, and kept chattering away.

Suddenly, Chen Ye abruptly stood up!

Upon witnessing this scene, Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming seemed to understand and both took a few steps back to avoid being accidentally injured.

When the Mo family patriarch saw Chen Ye's friend standing opposite him, he took a few steps back. Although he didn't understand, he still took a few steps back.

Startled by Chen Ye's sudden standing up, Huo Lie swayed backward.

At this moment, Chen Ye was holding the chopsticks tightly in his hand. When no one was watching, he suddenly clenched his fist, and a "crack" sound was heard by everyone.

Just as Huo Lie glanced at the chopsticks, upon seeing Chen Ye's movement, one of the guards shouted, "Young Master, be careful!"

Huo Lie had just looked up when he saw Chen Ye throw a punch, the fist still an inch away. Suddenly accelerating, the punch landed squarely on Huo Lie's face.

Perhaps due to a slight deviation in force, the punch did not land completely on Huo Lie's face, but in that instant, Huo Lie may have already felt the call of death.

The force of that punch pierced through Huo Lie's head and was released directly. The powerful force of the punch shattered the door of the private room, scattering it like dust everywhere.

Huo Lie only suffered a mild concussion; there was no serious injury. It was only at the very last moment before striking Huo Lie that Chen Ye again restrained his strength.

Even Chen Ye was astonished by the immense strength displayed by his own physique. Lin Su and Wang Xiaoming, witnessing this, couldn't help but lean closer and ask, "Chen Ye, how did you become so strong?"

Chen Ye was also somewhat puzzled and shook his head.

Huo Lie, Master Wang, and the guards who witnessed this scene were all shocked.

However, Huo Lie persisted, pointing at Chen Ye and ordering, "Whoever can kill him will be richly rewarded!"

Upon hearing the promise of money, the guards behind Huo Lie drew their swords from their waists.

"Clang—"

A crisp sound as the sword is drawn from its sheath!
