The young man was astonished.
Only then did he realize that something about the atmosphere was amiss.
"I'm just conducting regular business here, Boss Li, you're overreacting," he said.
Li Shun snorted, a fierce light flashing in his eyes.
"Overreacting, huh? It's one thing to provoke me, Li Shun."
"But to mess with my big brother, isn't that the same as shitting on my head?"
He slowly walked up to Yang Fei, standing alongside him.
"Remember this well, no matter the time or place, Mr. Yang Fei here is always my brother, Mr. Li."
"It's no big deal to provoke me, but whoever messes with Mr. Yang Fei, we will have nothing more to say, and don't blame me for being ruthless!"
The young man looked at Li Shun in disbelief.
His eyes were filled with both ferocity and confusion.
Damn it, Li Shun, the number one figure in the Yannan Underground World.
Since when did he have an older brother?
In the literati world there's no first place; in the martial world, there's no second.
In the Underworld, reputation and credibility mean everything.
That's tied to enormous interests.
No matter how foolish Li Shun was, he wouldn't destroy his own credibility by trumping up such a 'big brother', would he?
Unless it was true!
The young man's gaze shifted back to Yang Fei.
The Yang Fei before him appeared mild and clean-cut, lacking the wild aura of a Mortal World figure.
He did not possess the imposing authority and presence of a major gangster.
At first glance, he looked just like a college student still in school.
Seemingly, someone who could be made to cry for half a day with a slap.
But why was Li Shun propping up such a person?
The more the young man looked, the more uncertain he became.
His thoughts raced back to how Yang Fei had methodically dislocated that person's bones, which made him shudder.
Perhaps what Li Shun said was true.
In the Mortal World, there are plenty of dragons that have crossed the river!
The more the young man thought about it, the colder his heart felt.
If what Li Shun said was true, then who exactly had he provoked today—a personage of frightening significance?
With this thought, a smile appeared on the young man's grim face.
"Boss Li, I was indeed rash today, just trying to make a living," he said.
Pointing at Long Shaoyang, he said resentfully, "This guy mortgaged a fake property deed and cheated our Boss Wang out of ten million."
"Boss Wang couldn't swallow this humiliation and asked me to break his leg, which put me in a tough spot."
Li Shun snorted, his expression turning extremely unsightly.
He was aware of the Boss Wang the young man mentioned, a big rascal who was as notorious as Li Shun.
Boss Wang's real name was Wang Qiming, nicknamed Wang Mazi due to the large pockmarks that covered his face.
Wang Mazi was also a famous figure in the Shan Province Underground World.
This man had been implicated in smuggling and drug trafficking years ago, and after making enough money, he began money laundering and cleaning up his act.
He owned many businesses, with the Golden Leopard Loan Company being one of his important assets.
All along, Wang Mazi had a sour relationship with the three big rascals from Yannan.
He especially did not get along with the outspoken Li Shun.
According to unreliable information, a situation of irreconcilable hostility had formed between Golden Buddha and the three big rascals of Yannan.
In this, Wang Mazi's role in stirring up trouble was indispensable.
Yang Fei said indifferently, "Sorry, but Changfeng Security Company has just been established, and this person is the first client our company has taken on."
The young man's face grew even uglier.
With Yang Fei saying so, Long Shaoyang was off limits.
If he still insisted on harming Long Shaoyang, it would undoubtedly be destroying the reputation of Changfeng Security.
In the Mortal World, that was a huge taboo.
The young man snorted and glared at Long Shaoyang with a malicious look.
"Mr. Dragon, you owe Boss Wang some money; you can avoid it on the first day, but not on the fifteenth."
"Do you really think you can hide in Changfeng Security Company for the rest of your life?"
His gaze all but emitted a murderous intent, "You'd better pay back what you owe Boss Wang, principal and interest included."
"Otherwise, who knows when an accident might happen? These days, people die from car accidents, electrocution, even from drinking water or eating."
Long Shaoyang felt bitter in his heart but dared not say a word.
The young man turned around again and gave a slight bow to Li Shun and Yang Fei with his hands clasped in front.
"Gentlemen, I truly did not intend any disrespect today. After returning, Boss Wang will personally come to discuss this matter with both of you."
Yang Fei nodded, but Li Shun, detecting the threatening undertone in his voice, snorted coldly.
The young man signaled to his group of underlings, "Let's go."
Just then, Bai Yang, the chief bodyguard standing behind Li Shun, stepped forward and blocked the meeting room door.
He stood as straight as a rod.
Behind him, Li Shun's men lined up in a row, blocking the way of the young man and his entourage.
The young man was startled and turned to look at Li Shun with a sullen face.
"Boss Li, leave a way out for yourself, so we can meet amicably in the future. What are you trying to do?"
Li Shun stood erect and said indifferently, "My elder brother's company is no place where you can come and go as you please. Did you think it was that easy?"
The young man looked at the imposing stance of Bai Yang standing firm like a solitary guard.
He then looked outside, where all of Li Shun's men were stationed, guarding the staircases, corridors, and other vital exits.
His complexion began to pale, "Boss Li, what are you trying to do?"
Li Shun lit a cigarette for Yang Fei, his expression frosty.
"Not trying to do much. Today is the grand opening of my elder brother's company. You'll kowtow three times to him in apology,"
"Then, you'll give him a red envelope, set off firecrackers and hang decorations to wish him great prosperity and a booming business on his opening day. Then you may leave. Otherwise..."
At this point, the murderous look in Li Shun's eyes was piercing.
"Don't blame me, Li Shun, for being impolite."
The young man looked at Li Shun and felt a chill in his heart.
He had barged in rashly,
Only to realize that he had encountered an old wolf baring its teeth in the form of Li Shun.
Moreover, it seemed that Yang Fei held an even higher status in the Underworld.
Such a behemoth was definitely not someone he could afford to provoke.
Yet, a man's knees are adorned with gold.
To kneel in the Mortal World means complete submission, losing all status and reputation.
If the young man knelt, it would reflect poorly even on Wang Mazi.
The young man let out a wry smile.
"Boss Yang, congratulations on your grand opening. Celebrating it is only proper,"
"But can we do without the kowtowing? After all, I am..."
"Humph, no way."
Before he could finish, Li Shun cut him off.
He spoke flatly, "My elder brother is an important person. Kneeling to him is an honour for you."
"Don't be given face and not take it."
Su Yinxue was completely unaccustomed to this sort of underworld etiquette.
But she was a smart woman, and seeing Yang Fei remain silent, she also kept quiet.
Actually, Yang Fei was not used to this kind of underworld style either.
But he knew that Changfeng Security Company had just been established today, and if it didn't make a name for itself and establish authority in the Underworld,
problems would come continuously one after another.
So, he maintained his silence.
The young man was stubborn, remaining silent.
The few men behind him, however, were so scared they trembled all over.
The atmosphere in the meeting room became extremely oppressive and tense.
Whoosh!
A flash of blade light flew out from Bai Yang's hand.
