Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 800: The Cost

Su Chen had returned to his previous position and cast a cold glance at the kneeling people, speaking:

"Seeing that you all have been cooperative, I promise, in front of my grandparents' and parents' gravestones, that as long as the members of your families do not actively provoke me, I will not seek trouble with them either."

"However, if they do provoke me, then I'm sorry!"

Upon hearing Su Chen's words, Shen Mingchang and the others immediately showed a relieved expression.

Wasn't this promise exactly what they wanted?

As for those in the family who might have a death wish later, that was their own fault!

Suddenly, a flash of cold light sparked, and blood splattered everywhere...

.....

When Su Chen and Su Jin walked down the hillside again, the members of the major families were still there.

"You can go up now."

Su Chen told them.

As soon as he finished speaking, those people immediately rushed up the hillside...

Su Chen and Su Jin then drove back.

"Su Chen, there won't be any problems that you killed those men today, right?"

Although she knew that Su Chen wouldn't act this way without being confident, she was still somewhat worried.

"Auntie, in this world, most of the people and events abide by rules, but once your strength reaches a certain level, you can transcend those rules, and only a more powerful force can restrain you!"

Su Chen glanced at Su Jin with a faint smile as he drove.

Upon hearing these words, Su Jin nodded. His logic was indeed sound.

For instance, would the Five Great Families pay with lives for killing a person? Obviously not!

"By the way, did Shen Mingchang call you over to talk about that mysterious person? Who exactly is that person?"

Su Jin asked, still curious about the mysterious individual.

"No, we discussed something else."

Su Chen casually said:

"I also inquired about the mysterious person. He has nothing to do with the past events."

"Are you sure?"

Su Jin asked doubtfully.

"Auntie, don't you trust me?"

Su Chen responded, his lips curling into a smile.

"Of course I trust you, but it hardly seems likely!"

Su Jin furrowed her brows slightly.

"You're overthinking it and getting too fixated."

Su Chen gently grasped Su Jin's hand and said:

"Auntie, relax, this matter is completely over."

The reason he didn't tell Su Jin about Shengyi Gate was to keep her out of this affair.

Because Shengyi Gate might be very powerful, and involving Su Jin could be very dangerous, something he didn't want to see!

Besides, she had already paid too much for what happened in the past —— she deserved a rest...

"Okay, Auntie will listen to you; I'll stop thinking about it."

Su Jin smiled faintly, then leaned back in her seat and closed her eyes.

For Su Jin, the experiences still felt like a dream; she hardly understood how everything had happened.

Although Su Chen had explained it to her simply, there were still parts she didn't quite grasp.

But what she was certain of was that the events of the past had finally concluded!

All thanks to her elder brother and sister-in-law having such a fine son! And she was increasingly unable to see through this nephew of hers!

At this thought, she looked toward Su Chen, who was driving, feeling a bit conflicted.

Should she tell him about that matter or not?

"Would telling him be too cruel?"

Su Jin thought about it but ultimately chose not to speak...

Su Chen first parked the car at the Imperial Garden and then Su Jin drove back alone.

Just as Su Chen entered the small yard of the villa, Lin Ruoxue rushed out.

"Husband, are you alright?"

Lin Ruoxue asked with a tense expression.

"What could possibly happen to me?"

Su Chen smiled and then asked:

"Honey, why didn't you go to work?"

"Was I in the mood to work today?"

Lin Ruoxue glanced at him and said,

"How did things turn out?"

"It's over, they paid the price they had to pay."

Su Chen said with a faint smile:

"Come on, let's go inside."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ruoxue didn't ask further. She was a smart woman and knew that Su Chen didn't want to talk more...

.....

In the following days, a shocking piece of news spread throughout Yandu and even Huaxia.

The patriarchs of the Four Great Families, including Su Yuan of the Su Family, Zheng Qiusheng and his wife from the Zheng Family, and the couple from the Situ Family, had gone on a trip together and tragically perished in a plane crash...

At the same time, a few new tombstones were added to the cemetery of the Five Great Families...

During the same period, an explosive piece of news shook all of Jiangnan!

That was the leading family of Jiangnan committing treason; the old lady of the Wu Family was executed by firing squad, and most others were sentenced to life in prison with only a few escaping punishment!

The people of Jiangnan were still secretly envying the Wu Family for connecting with the Situ Family of Yandu, not realizing they would never return from their trip to Yandu!

It's fair to say, it was a tremendous irony!

With that, the Wu Family became the third family in Jiangnan to fall, leaving only the Yun Family remaining from the Four Great Families!

......

When Lin Ruoxue first heard of these events, her mind went blank from shock!

While others might not know, she clearly understood that this was all Su Chen's doing!

When she initially heard of Su Chen planning to take revenge on the Five Great Families, it seemed like a fantasy!

It was truly a case of David versus Goliath!

But facing such deep-seated hatred, she couldn't well advise him to let go. She could only do her utmost to help him.

She hadn't expected that in just a few months, he would actually succeed!

The people involved had paid for the past with their lives.

It took Lin Ruoxue several days to slowly accept this reality; after all, the events were too shocking!

......

However, people are forgetful, especially in this era of information overload.

When another ten days or so had passed, the people of Yandu seldom discussed the 'plane crash' involving the several great families.

These days, Su Chen was rather leisurely, his life revolving almost around the recurrent theme of going to work, getting off work, and practicing cultivation.

As for the Shengyi Gate, he of course had not let it go, but without any information, how could he proceed? fгeewebnovёl.com

He planned to wait until the school holidays began for his daughter, then take her back to the Kunlun Mountains to visit the old man and perhaps inquire if he knew anything about Shengyi Gate, before making further plans. After all, it was just three or four days until the school holidays started.

Compared to the issues with Shengyi Gate, another matter kept him on edge, which was that Du Hanbing had not returned yet!

By now, it had been two months since Du Hanbing had left to carry out her mission, too long a time!

But he was also helpless. A few days ago, he had visited the Eighth Brigade and heard that the authorities had already dispatched many airplanes and personnel to the area where she was carrying out her mission to search and rescue her.

For now, all he could do was wait for news and pray for her safe return...
