Not only was Gu Yanzhao shocked by Bai Jingchuan's words. Everyone around them was just as stunned.
"What? This young man... actually saved Old Master Gu's life!?"
"Good heavens... that's completely unexpected."
"Exactly. No wonder he isn't the least bit afraid of the Gu family! He actually saved Old Master Gu's life..."
Everyone murmured in amazement.
Chu Yuntian's expression shifted, too. Then he remembered what Song Guowei had just said, and abruptly looked up, glaring furiously at Chu Wenjie. "You little ingrate, get over here!"
"Tell me! What exactly have you done!?"
Under Chu Yuntian's furious scolding, Chu Wenjie opened his mouth and stammered, "Dad, I..."
But after those first words, he seemed unable to find anything else to say.
By then, Ning Wangshu was already looking impatient. He gave a cold snort. "Whatever you need to figure out, do it later. I don't have the time to stand around here wasting it with you."
With that, Ning Wangshu darted in front of Zhu Hongchang.
Zhu Hongchang was immediately terrified. "Y-you, what are you going to do!?"
The moment he remembered how Ning Wangshu had just snapped his son's neck, panic surged through him.
No matter how fiercely he had blustered before, now that he was facing death, he couldn't hold back his fear.
Seeing the terror in Zhu Hongchang's eyes, Ning Wangshu sneered. "What am I going to do? Heh. Didn't I already tell you? I'm sending you to join your son on Yellow Springs Road."
"You..."
Zhu Hongchang was about to say more, but Ning Wangshu gave him no chance. He simply tapped a finger against the center of Zhu Hongchang's brow!
The next instant,
Zhu Hongchang's body jerked. His eyes flew open, then gradually dimmed. His body crashed to the ground...
"Thud!"
Everyone saw Ning Wangshu
