Chapter 4 The terrified Li Family

Tai Cang City. Serenity One Villa. At 8 a.m., a dozen core members of the Li family stood at the villa's front door. With a humble smile, the Li family head said to the gatekeeper "Please inform, we have come to visit Elder Lei, I had an appointment with Lei Quan yesterday." Lei family was the invisible rich and magnitude family. It could be viewed as the first and top family in Tai Cang City. Only few people know this because the Lei family acted in a low profile. But the resources they hold exceed many times than the Li family . The legend of Lei family, Lei Chengwu, was over ninety years old. He was a great man who has experienced the war years, and a word from him could make the Li family doom. However, this old man had been out of the world for more than a decade, and retired in the Serenity One Villa. It was Lei Chengwu's birthday, and there was a party within the Lei family. The Li family came over to visit each time in the morning. Li family was satisfied with the qualification to visit this legend man. They waited about five minutes, and a square-faced man, who looked about seventy years old appeared. He was Lei Quan, the contemporary family head of the Lei family. "Brother Quan." The Li family head said with a smile. Lei Quan nodded imperceptibly, glancing at the gift box in the hands of the Li family and others, he said flatly, "In the past two years, every time you come with gifts, have you forgotten the rules?" "I dare not, I know that Elder Lei don’t like gifts. But I thought of paying more filial respect to him while he is healthy." The Li family head hurriedly made amends and smiled. The gifts they brought, worth over $10 million, were all rare items. "Let's put it aside for now." Lei Quan grunted. The gate opened and the Li family placed their gifts in the courtyard. They then walked into the lobby of the villa. There were six or seven people in the room, sit on the sofa was Lei Chengwu, his hair was white but looked about eighty years old. "Pay my respects to you, Elder Lei, wish you good health and longevity." Li family head arched his hand and said with a smile. "Sit down, all of you." Lei Chengwu nodded lightly as he held his cup of tea and was taking a small sip. Li wen cast a few glances at the tea cup. He knew this teacup was an antique object, named the Jitai teacup. Its auction price was 50 million dollars! In Lei family, it was just the old man's daily necessity. When the Li family was seated, Lei Quan also had some smiles as the two elders exchanged pleasantries. Drinking tea and making small talk at the same time. A few moments later, Li Xi, the sister of the Li family head, looked at Lei Wei, the youngest master of the Lei family, and said with a smile, "Lei Wei now is a talent, and you are twenty years old, right? Do you have a girlfriend ? I can introduce some good girl to you." Lei Wei sat next to the small sofa, smiled and shook his head, "I just plan to study abroad. So I have no idea of a relationship for the time being." "Really excellent." Li Xi smiled and lamented, "Compared to you, Li Kun is a big difference, he has nothing to do all day." Lei Wei laughed, "We are friends, yesterday he also asked me about Su Chen and the Palace of Heavenly Kings ." His words just fell. "Poof ..." Suddenly, the old man Lei Chengwu, spitted the tea in his mouth all over the ground. The room was instantly silent! Lei Quan was startled and rushed over to gently pat his back, "Father, what happened to you?" Under the gaze of the crowd, Lei Chengwu trembled and breathed heavily, his eyes were red, stared straight at Lei Wei, "What did you say? What did you just say?" "Grandpa, I, I didn't say anything!" Lei Wei's face changed slightly, "I was talking about the Li family." "the Palace of Heavenly Kings! You said the Palace of Heavenly Kings!!!" Lei Chengwu gritted his teeth in anger. In an instant, the faces of many people in the room, have changed. Why the Palace of Heavenly Kings made the old man so excited? "It's Li Kun, something happened at his restaurant yesterday, he asked me about the the Palace of Heavenly Kings and Su Chen ..." Lei Wei explained. The moment he finished! Snap! The teacup worth fifty million dollars was viciously slammed to the ground by Lei Chengwu. The old man shouted angrily, "Asshole!" "What an asshole!" Lei Chengwu picked up his cane and was about to smash it into Lei Wei's head. "Father, take it easy, I will, I will beat him ..." Lei Quan's face turned pale, and he quickly walked over and kicked Lei Wei to the ground. "Grandpa ..." Lei Wei was confused. The Li family was also confused, they simply did not know why Elder Lei became so furious. Bang! Lei Chengwu hit the table hard with his cane as he said in an angry voice, "What are the family rules? Huh? What are the family rules! Why didn't you tell me the first time there was news about the Palace of Heavenly Kings? Lei Quan, what are you guys doing!" The first family rule of the Lei family: People of the Palace of Heavenly Kings are the Lei family guests, the supreme benefactors. People of the Lei family must respect them. Those who betrayed this rule would be expelled from the Lei family forever! Lei Quan panicked a little and hurriedly explained, "Father, it was you who said last time. Don’t tell the younger generation the specific family rules until they are twenty years old. It still has a month before Wei’s twentieth birthday." "Bastards, all of you are bastards! You should tell them when they are eighteen!" Lei Chengwu gasped deeply as he said in a huffy tone, "Lei Wei, get your ass to the ancestral hall and kneel until dark!" "Go on!" Lei Quan sighed in relief and glared fiercely at Lei Wei. Lei Wei left in a hurry. And at this point, the Li family was sitting nervously. They saw that Su Chen maybe was a friend of the Lei family. Then ... Li Kun offended that person, would there be any consequences? The Head of Li family said, "Old master, calm down, it's all about the juniors." "The juniors?" Lei Chengwu's gaze was incomparably severe, he stared at the Li family and said word for word, "You Li family, you dare to provoke my benefactor?" Ahhhhh! People of the Li family instantly panicked! They didn't know what the Palace of Heavenly Kings meant. But they were afraid of Lei Chengwu! Li family will be subject to the disaster of extinction with Lei Chengwu’s one word! Poof! The Head of Li family hurriedly kneeled on the ground, he choked and said, "Old Master, please calm down, it's all our fault, I beg your mercy...." Lei Chengwu said coldly, "Begging me? What a joke!" "Please." The Li family head cried, "I don't even know the Palace of Heavenly Kings, we didn't offend him, it's Li Kun's own business. Old Master, I can give you an explanation, the Li family will also obtain Su Chen's forgiveness, please spare us." Lei Chengwu sat on the sofa, he sneered, "You dared to provoke the Palace of Heavenly Kings, you really had big nerve. Not to mention that the Palace of Heavenly Kings has a favor to me, Li, do you know that in the war years, every time there was a big action, our country's five warlords would go to the Palace of Heavenly Kings to ask its decisions!" Hiss! The Li family sucked back a cold breath when those words came out. The Palace of the Heavenly Kings had been known for a long time. But even the five warlords would pay their greetings before they made a move? What kind of terrifying position was this? "I don't know who Su Chen is, but back then, my benefactor came from the Palace of Heavenly Kings. So as long as he is from the Palace of Heavenly Kings, he is a guest of Lei family!" Lei Chengwu's eyes unfolded sharpness. "Old Master, is this a misunderstanding?" The Head of Li family said in a panicked tone, "Could someone just be messing around with the name of the Palace of Heavenly Kings?" "Hahahaha, messing around? I've lived for more than 90 years and I've never seen anyone dare to mess around with its name!" Lei Chengwu thumped the table viciously, "People who know about the Palace of Heavenly Kings are all the powerful big shots! You think I'm joking? Idiots!" Immediately! The face of Li family’s people became more pale! Lei Chengwu took a deep breath as he scoffed and said, "Last night, the full strength of the Dark Shadow Hall moved to the Dragon Kingdom, they have disappeared for thirty years, even their mysterious Hall Master, the Demon King Feng Wuya, personally moved!" "You have offended people from the Palace of Heavenly Kings, and the entire Shadow Hall coming in high profile, you dare to assert that they are not related?" "It's not too late for you to go back and buy yourselves a nice coffin, so get out! Get out of here, all of you!" Lei Chengwu's words made the whole Li family changed face dramatically. "What!" "Demon King Feng Wuya, he, he came because of the Palace of Heavenly Kings?" Although this was Lei Chengwu's speculation, but this genuinely scared the Li family. They were spooked! A cold stream of air, from the back of the spine, just straightly moved into their mind. Their faces were ashen! Many sat on the ground, and almost cried in fear, "How is this possible?" "It's over! Li family is finished! Wooooooooo..." ... In a subway station, Mo City. Su Chen held his daughter, Lolo, and walked into the subway. "Daddy, Daddy, so many people..." Lolo was a little scared and wrapped her arms around Su Chen's neck, as if she was whispering. "Lolo, don't be afraid, there is Daddy." Su Chen smiled faintly, and pressed her cheeks. Taking the subway was something Su Chen did on purpose. After Bai Qianqian and her assistant left at 6 am, Su Chen planned to take his daughter for a walk in a crowded place. It would take some time to adjust to the problems in his daughter's personality. "Daddy, we, where are we going? I want to draw at home ..." Lolo whispered. "We'll draw at night, and we'll play outside during the day." Su Chen was a little helpless, he smiled and said, "We'll go to Mount Panlong later, that's Daddy's territory. You're Daddy's princess, and Daddy intends to build you a castle in Mount Panlong." "Eh?" Lolo froze, she shook her head, and did not understand. She said shyly, "Daddy is the best." Su Chen saw this and laughed happily. After having a daughter, life was full of hope!
