Chapter 334: Chapter 334 - You Can Enjoy Your Twilight Years Now_1

Mu Cheng recoiled at the sight of Zhang Xian’s lewd appearance and quickly scurried off to the side.

They’d been around each other long enough for her to know Zhang Xian was a man of his word – if she didn’t distance herself, she might end up being assaulted without even knowing how it came about. No choice really, he was just a thick-skinned fellow!

"You seem to be scared of me."

Zhang Xian chuckled, "If that’s the case, let’s get going!"

With that, he slipped into his BMW.

Once Mu Cheng had climbed into the car, she turned to Zhang Xian, "What’s your plan for dealing with them? You’re not planning on going on a massacre, are you?"

"I can’t say for sure."

Zhang Xian replied, "Honestly, I don’t have any good feelings for those five guys. If they can’t tell good from bad, I might just kill them. Keeping them around would be asking for trouble."

Mu Cheng’s brows furrowed as she fell silent, showing no intention of pleading on behalf of the five Mu Family leaders.

That was just her – if you showed her an inch of respect, she would reciprocate with a yard. Family ties were merely a facade, what mattered more was how individuals treated one another.

Why should she pursue a bond with someone who didn’t see her as family? If she didn’t have Zhang Xian backing her up, she might have been driven out of the Mu Family already, and would have lost all her territory.

Soon, they pulled up at the hospital in Sunset Town.

Da Meng and a few others were already waiting outside the entrance.

Upon seeing Zhang Xian emerging from the BMW, they quickly rushed over, calling out, "Brother Xian!"

"Hmm!" Zhang Xian replied with a nod, "Let’s go in."

Mu Cheng was rather startled when she saw Da Meng. Seeing Da Meng address Zhang Xian as Brother Xian threw her for a loop.

Wasn’t Da Meng the head of the Black Fist Club? Why would he address Zhang Xian as Brother Xian? Could it be that Zhang Xian had somehow brought the Black Fist Club under his control? When did that happen?

She nudged Zhang Xian, frowning as she asked, "Zhang Xian, what’s going on?"

Zhang Xian queried, "What do you mean?"

Mu Cheng replied, "Why are the Black Fist Club members calling you Brother Xian? When did you take control of the Black Fist Club? This is so weird."

"Weird?" Zhang Xian chuckled, "Yesterday afternoon, they arrested Wang Zhong and I went to check it out. That’s it. I just took over the Black Fist Club on a whim, any problem with that?"

"How could that... be possible?" Mu Cheng’s eyes widened in disbelief, filled with incredulous light.

A single Zhang Xian controlling the Black Fist Club, which teemed with experts... was Zhang Xian truly that powerful?

If he hadn’t taken control, why would the head of the Black Fist Club call him Brother Xian?

"Why isn’t it possible?" Zhang Xian replied with a touch of dissatisfaction, "Elder Sister Cheng, are you looking down on my strength?"

Mu Cheng replied, "That’s not what I meant."

Zhang Xian frowned darkly, "That’s clearly what you mean. You don’t believe that I could control the Black Fist Club."

"I didn’t mean it."

"Yes, you did."

"I really didn’t, can you stop misinterpreting?"

"Yes, you did."

"Fine, I did..." Mu Cheng shot Zhang Xian a sideways glance, "But what are you going to do about it?"

Zhang Xian paused, then slapped Mu Cheng’s butt, "I can’t do anything about you, but I can smack your butt. It feels quite nice, so bouncy."

Mu Cheng’s face flushed deeply. She gritted her teeth and growled, "Zhang Xian, do you want to die?"

Zhang Xian said, "I’m perfectly healthy, why would I want to die? I haven’t even slept with Elder Sister Cheng yet!"

Mu Cheng’s lips twitched unnaturally a few times, and she decided to ignore Zhang Xian. Bantering with him would probably shave ten years off her life. And no matter how much they argued, she never had the upper hand.

What could she do? If Zhang Xian couldn’t win a verbal argument, he’d resort to physical touch. They sure couldn’t get physical in retaliation, could they? This guy would probably enjoy it anyway.

...

In the hospital, inside a certain ward.

At that moment, the five Mu Family leaders were huddled together, deliberating intensely on how to kill Zhang Xian.

The previous outing to Medicine Mountain not only failed to regain their territory, but Zhang Xian had also broken their arms. This was a humiliation they simply couldn’t swallow.

Zhang Xian, that damned little bastard, his death was a foregone conclusion.

"First Brother, what should we do about this?"

Third Brother was boiling with rage, wishing he could flay Zhang Xian, then grind his bones into dust, "That damn bastard completely disregards our Mu Family. He has to die."

"We’re still in hospital; nothing we say matters right now. That guy is not weak."

The First Brother held immense animosity for Zhang Xian, "For now, we have to devise a thorough plan. We’ll discuss the details after we’re discharged. We can’t afford to be careless."

The Fourth Brother nodded, "Exactly, Zhang Xian is very strong. Our ordinary methods won’t work on him."

The Second and Fifth Brothers exchanged glances, not saying a word. As members of the Mu Family, both with broken arms, they certainly wanted to retaliate against Zhang Xian. They chose, however, not to participate in the discussion.

"Oh, everyone’s here?"

Suddenly, a few figures trotted into the ward.

The five leaders of the Mu Family immediately jumped off the bed when they saw the young man in the lead.

Seeing Da Meng and the others behind the young man, they were simply stunned.

What is going on? What is this bastard Zhang Xian up to coming here? And why is Da Meng mingling with Zhang Xian?

"It seems you guys have really missed me!"

An amused Zhang Xian said, "See, you guys jumped up in glee as soon as I arrived, and that makes me happy too!"

The Five Brothers of Mu Family almost coughed up blood in anger at Zhang Xian’s aggravating behavior.

Did they want to bump into Zhang Xian? Did they jump out of happiness? What absurd things is this man talking about? They jumped out of fear, fear incited by this goddamn scoundrel!

"Come on, let’s not stand. Sit down, please!"

Zhang Xian smiled, sat by the bed, and asked, "Five big brothers, are your hands still hurting? I apologize for the injuries done last time. My hand was heavier than I intended."

The Five Brothers of Mu Family had stern expressions on their faces, not knowing how to respond to Zhang Xian’s words.

Mu Cheng frowned in disgust. Zhang Xian, such a shameless man he is! However, it was amusing to see how furious these five leaders of the Mu Family were with him.

"Let me see..."

Zhang Xian suddenly grabbed the Third Brother’s hand and squeezed it hard, "Does it hurt? Should I check on it?"

A horrible scream, akin to that of a pig being butchered, echoed through the room.

The Third Brother’s eyes bulged like two copper bells, "The hell, what are you doing?"

"Sorry, I was a bit too rough." Zhang Xian chuckled apologetically, "Let me see again. This time, it won’t hurt."

The Third Brother glowered and quickly stepped back, "Stay away... stay away... my hand is healing now, it doesn’t need your intrusion."

"Don’t you want me to take a look?"

Zhang Xian grinned, turned to the others, and gently asked, "What about you fellows? Shall I take a look?"

The remaining four swiftly retreated, shaking their heads vehemently.

Da Meng was dumbfounded. It seemed that the five leaders of the Mu Family were terrified of Zhang Xian! They reacted like mice stumbling upon a cat. Seeing the strength of Zhang Xian, Da Meng finally understood.

It was indeed normal for the Five Brothers of the Mu Family to fear Zhang Xian. If they didn’t, they would be deemed insane.

"Sigh..."

Seeing the former glorious Five Brothers of Mu Family being terrorized by Zhang Xian, Mu Cheng was torn between laughter and despair. They were a disgrace to the Mu Family name!

Those were the days! In their grandfather’s time, the Mu Family enjoyed unparalleled dignity. Did the Qiu and Shu Families dare to be presumptuous around them?

Now, the Mu Family had been ruined by these fools.

"Since you are not letting me see, I won’t insist. Let’s get straight to the point."

Zhang Xian looked at the five leaders of the Mu Family, "My big brothers, to be honest, I am highly suspicious of your qualifications and capabilities as leaders. The decline of the Mu Family is crystal clear for all to see. As Mu Cheng’s man, and your son-in-law, I must do something. Let’s discuss the matter relating to the Medicine Mountain."

The First Brother asked ominously, "What are you implying?"

Zhang Xian replied, "It’s straightforward! As you have said, the Medicine Mountain needs a competent leader for the Mu Family to go farther. Isn’t it?"

The Third Brother retorted furiously, "Are you bloody stealing our Medicine Mountain? Do you know what the word ’death’ stands for?"

"Stealing? Stealing what?" Zhang Xian abruptly stood up and growled at the Third Brother, "Which part of me do you bloody think is stealing?"

The Third Brother was startled and promptly moved backward.

What’s he trying to imply? How dare he shout at people? He nearly gave him a heart attack!

"I’m sorry, I let my emotions get the best of me."

Zhang Xian chuckled apologetically and continued, "That’s not a pleasant way to put it. How could I ’steal’ your Medicine Mountain? That was also your initial perception! I am just following suit! Initially, you mentioned that Mu Cheng was incompetent to manage the Medicine Mountain, so you divided her portions. Currently, my point of view is very similar to yours!"

The First retorted coldly, "It’s her fault. She indeed lacks the ability to manage the Medicine Mountain. We are not to be blamed."

Zhang Xian clarified, "I never blamed you!"

The Five Brothers of Mu Family were on the brink of bursting out in rage. This man’s skin was certainly thick! If he didn’t resent them, why did he break their hands? Was that some kind of love?

"Don’t be angry. Calm down, everyone. Need to stay calm!"

Zhang Xian chuckled and continued, "As far as I know, the Mu Family used to be the wealthiest family in Sunset Town, right? No one dared to provoke us then. Now, we’re practically the weakest.

This clearly shows that none of you are suitable leaders for the Mu Family, and our downfall is unavoidable."

The First, red-faced and fuming, shot back, "You brat, are you... are you asking us to surrender the rights to manage the Medicine Mountain?"

The other four had similar indignant expressions; their eyebrows fiercely arched. Was this lad planning a coup?

"That seems to be the idea."

Zhang Xian shrugged his shoulders and added, "However, it’s not my idea; it’s yours. I’m just thinking about the best interest of the Mu Family. Originally, because of Mu Cheng’s lack of leadership skills, you didn’t let her join the inner circle. Now it’s evident that each of your leadership capabilities is severely flawed. Thereby, you all can peacefully enjoy your twilight years."
