Chu Feng went straight to the point. He wasted no time in pointing out Lu Ba's crimes.
The guests said nothing, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
They also knew about Lu Ba's crimes. In fact, everyone in Yenching knew about it.
No one dared to raise any of those points. Even if someone did, the Lu family would find some way to suppress it.
With enough power and influence, one could distort the truth to their benefit.
When Chu Feng said that straight to Lu Ba's face, one could easily imagine the shock the guests felt.
Lu Ba was silent for a few seconds. He instinctively straightened his back and said, "So are you saying you're crashing my party to uphold justice?"
He chuckled derisively.
He knew everyone wanted to see "justice," but that aim could easily be led astray by money.
Chu Feng said calmly, "Li Hongtu is a good friend of mine. My mother's grave is in Xijiao Cemetery. If you want to demolish the place, you'll be disturbing her peace."
Chu Feng stared coldly at Lu Ba as though he was staring at a dead body.
"I see. So you're not under anyone's orders. You're doing this to seek justice for Li Hongtu's daughter and your mother," Lu Ba raised his eyebrows and said. When he knew that Chu Feng acted alone, he was no longer nervous.
Moreover, the land prices in Xijiao Cemetery were the lowest in Yenching. Even the poorest millionaire would not bury their relatives there.
It seemed that Lu Ba had nothing to worry about.
I see, so he's just a common peasant who happens to be a good fighter! Well, as powerful as he might be, he is only a lowly peasant!
"Young man, I admire your courage, but if you want to avenge anyone, it's not enough to only use your fists," Lu Ba lit up a cigar and took a puff. He pointed at his temple. "You need brains too."
He stood up and towered over Chu Feng. "You might think you're achieving something by killing my son, crashing my party, and humiliating my wife, but you're nothing more than a clown. Not only will you pay the price for doing all that, but the Lu family will go after all your family and friends until there's none left! The Sirius Society has a hundred thousand gang members scattered over Donghua's thirteen provinces. The Lu family controls half of Yenching's economy, and I'm good friends with almost everyone important in the government. What makes you think you can defeat me? Who do you think you are? You are nothing but a lowly peasant!"
Chu Feng remained sitting. He fiddled with a teacup and shot a glance at Lu Ba. "Would you believe me if I told you that this lowly peasant will end your bloodline today?"
He flashed a toothy grin, and he seemed so harmless.
