ods, even results."Long Huaiyu pursed her lips and continued, "For us, this is a matter of the family's foundation, the future, even the survival of the Western Mountain Province local faction. But fr...Chapter 1168: Dare to Do, Dare to Be

"It's okay to loosen up."

Li Chen had Wan Jiaojiao fetch some paper and a brush, tossing them before Hu Dang. He said coldly, "Write down the names of all officials involved in this matter."

Looking at the papers and pens thrown before him like trash, Hu Gang clenched his fist and sneered coldly at Li Chen, "Are you going to poke a hole in the sky"

Li Chen gave a glance, and Wan Jiaojiao immediately moved a chair to put behind Li Chen.

With a flick of his robe, Li Chen sat down and crossed his legs.

The foot that was lifted had its toes hovering just above Hu Dang's chin.

This humiliating act was followed by Li Chen's nonchalant yet thunderous words.

"A bunch of corrupt officials, blinded by lard, who live a life of greed and depravity are nothing but a motley crew. Do they even deserve to say they can pierce the heavens"

Hu Dagang came from an aristocratic family. His father was a respected and influential moderate who held real power in the government. After he came of age, he was arranged to enter the Ministry of Government through the imperial examination. Throughout his career, whether it was his friends, colleagues or elders and superiors, they all treated him with courtesy and respect, elevating him to the heavens.

When has Hu ever suffered such grievances and insults

He growled low in his throat and jerked his head violently, trying to shake Li Chen's foot off.

Li Chen raised his leg and kicked Hu Dang's cheek with one kick.

Hu dared to let out a scream, and with him tied up like a zongzi, he was directly flipped to the ground.

Hu Dagang, lying on the ground, felt half his face numb. His mouth was filled with a strong metallic taste, and warm liquid flowed from somewhere into his mouth. When he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with half a broken tooth.

Seeing his younger brother being beaten, Hu Dagang immediately started yelling.

"You goddamn bastard! Who the hell are you! Doesn't matter who you are! You're dead! You're **ing dead!"

Li Chen didn't even glance at him, saying coldly, "Bragging without any sense. Chen Tong, slap your mouth twenty times."

Chen Tong responded with a grunt, strode up to Hu Ganwei's face and slapped him repeatedly across the face with resounding slaps.

Chen Tong's strength needless to say, even if he held back, responsible for the words don't say Hu Ganwei, just ordinary martial arts first-rate masters come over, several slaps down the head also want to be beaten.

Even so, after three or five slaps, Hu Gang's screams came to an abrupt end. His face, full of blood and swelling, twisted to the side, obviously knocked unconscious by Chen Tong.

Li Chen said that if he promised twenty, it would be exactly twenty. He wouldn't add any more and wouldn't take any away.

Chen Tong slapped Hu Dangwei twice more, waking him up from his unconscious state.

Thus, he repeated the act twenty times. After twenty slaps, Hu Ganwei fell to the ground, viscous blood dripping from his mouth like threads, connecting to the floor. If it wasn't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, one would almost think Chen Tong had beaten him to death.

When Chen Tongxing had finished his execution, Li Chen said, "Go, bring Hu Pi here."

Although Hu Pi was just a second-rank official of the imperial court, Li Chen still had to give him proper respect. So he used a tie instead of binding him.

"You go yourself." Li Chen added.

Chen Tong took the order and immediately led his men away.

Li Chen looked back at Hu Dang and said, "You two brothers, one dares to do and the other dares to be. I hope you can live up to the names given to you by Hu Pi, daring to act and dare to stand."

Of course, it doesn't matter if you pretended to be someone you're not. I have ways of finding out who you all are. But when that time comes, your consequences won't be pretty.tood Zheng Bao Rong's thoughts, and he smiled, saying: "Zheng sir, you know my character. In fact, my ambition is not in the court. Now it is His Highness who has warmly invited me, and the situation...
