Recalling the last time he had severely taught Le Wu Ya a lesson, Ling Zhenfei's heart surged with pride, undeterred by the hidden powers behind him!

No matter how awesome the Le Family was or how powerful Golden Teeth might be, if he wanted to provoke them, wouldn't he do it without any hesitation?

And crucially, up to this point, even though he had waited a long time, he had not seen any retaliation from the Le Family or Golden Teeth!

"What about Golden Teeth? Golden Teeth is not an Immortal. Can he really cover the sky with one hand and disregard the laws of the country?"

Qin Fanghuai couldn't possibly be unaware of the fearsome might of Golden Teeth, but now, driven mad by his gambling losses, he glared with his round, bulging eyes and ranted insanely, "I don't care who he is, even if he's the Jade Emperor himself. He's made me this way, and I will drag him down with me. Even if I die, I won't make it easy for him!"

Slap!

"You fool, if you don't want to live, don't drag your family down with you!"

As Qin Fanghuai was going mad, Old Qiao slapped him again, furiously angry, his turbid eyes seeming to shoot fire, and then in an almost commanding tone said to his nephew, "You crazy kid, do you know who Golden Teeth is?

He is the number one boss of the Binyang underworld, with every district leader following his commands. Not only does he call the shots in the underworld, killing countless people, but he also has significant connections in The White Path. If you dare report him, it's a small thing for him to get you killed. We will all be implicated because of you!"

"Uncle, I..."

Qin Fanghuai was merely caught up in the heat of the moment when he uttered such outrageous words in his anger.

Now, seeing Old Qiao's shockingly forceful reaction, he was struck as if by a sudden bolt of thunder and stood petrified, unable to utter a complete sentence.

As his nephew, he knew his uncle well. Although Old Qiao was usually low-profile, when it came to personal strength and connections, he was first-rate in Binyang.

Yet even such a public figure as his uncle was so wary of Golden Teeth! This showed just how dreadful Golden Teeth's power was in Binyang City!

"Enough, let's end this matter here. We can't afford to provoke Golden Teeth. In Binyang, no one can afford to provoke this killing god!"

Seeing Qin Fanghuai's extremely low spirits, Old Qiao's expression was also very disheartened, he sighed sadly and said, "We must endure this bad air, even if we can't stand it anymore, we must endure it forcefully!"

At this moment, deep inside, Qin Fanghuai still felt extremely indignant. But his uncle's words had branded themselves deeply into his heart.

Although swallowing this grievance made him feel humiliated... but if he didn't endure, what else could he do?

However, just as Qin Fanghuai was preparing to resign himself to this cruel fate, suddenly, he heard a chilling laughter beside him, "People fight for their pride, trees live for their bark! Many times, living isn't just about eating well and living well! If you've been wronged and don't seek justice openly and honorably, isn't such a life no different from that of a beast?"

This statement, although delivered casually, carried an overwhelmingly powerful aura. It struck Old Qiao and Qin Fanghuai, uncle and nephew, like a thunderclap at midnight, shattering their composure!

Upon hearing the voice, the uncle and nephew turned to see that the speaker was none other than Ling Zhenfei, whom they had just tried to treat as if he were air!

Ling Zhenfei had earnestly asked the uncle and nephew to treat him as air earlier, but not a word the two had said escaped his ears, as he listened intently to every single word they spoke.

Especially when he heard Old Qiao with his weathered, helpless expression asking Qin Fanghuai to swallow his anger, he could sit idle no longer and immediately stood up to make his stance clear.

Indeed, a person strives for dignity as a tree clings to its bark!

If one is bullied and does not even entertain the thought of seeking retribution, what's the point of living?

In Ling Zhenfei's life philosophy, the word "fear" has never existed.

Even if he knew he was no match, even if he knew it was certain death, he would fearlessly charge forward. Even if he couldn't take his opponent down with him, he would make sure to bite off a chunk of flesh before he died!

A true man has things he will not do, and things he must do!

To struggle for one's dignity, to fight to the death if necessary, that is the grand act a true man must undertake and face!

What is there to fear? Just go straight for the confrontation! Even if eighteen years pass, I'll still be a fine man!

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing Ling Zhenfei's words, both Old Qiao and Qin Fanghuai showed looks of astonishment on their faces, and they both exclaimed in unison.

However, their expressions of surprise were slightly different. Old Qiao couldn't believe it, while for Qin Fanghuai, alongside his shock, there was also great joy!

Indeed, just when he thought Golden Teeth was an insurmountable mountain in front of him, Ling Zhenfei had told him, "This is nothing, just go at him directly!"

Is there any boasting in this world that can stir the blood more than Ling Zhenfei's words? More capable of instantly instigating a surge of enthusiasm to take a big gamble?

Yes, it's been a long time since he felt such a bloodthirsty impulse!

And now, it was ignited by just one sentence from Ling Zhenfei!

Who exactly is this spirited young man before him?

Ling Zhenfei knew he didn't need to answer the uncle and nephew's simultaneous question. What he needed to do now was to reinvigorate them, to not bow to any evil forces.

"Doctor Qin, how much money did you lose at Golden Teeth's gambling house?"

Only after the emotions of Old Qiao and Qin Fanghuai had started to stabilize did Ling Zhenfei reveal a comforting smile to Qin Fanghuai and ask.

"This..." On hearing this, Qin Fanghuai immediately showed a look of shame and said gloomily, "I lost about seven to eight hundred thousand of my own funds. I borrowed around a million from a few friends, and lost all of that too. And there's more..."

Paused here, Qin Fanghuai seemed to have difficulty continuing, but after struggling with the pain, he finally said dazedly, "Also, I have a property in Binyang worth over two million, and I've lost that as well..."

"You! Gambling is a harmful vice. How could you become so addicted?"

When Ling Zhenfei heard that Qin Fanghuai had lost four to five million in the gambling den, essentially betting his entire livelihood, he couldn't help feeling both angry and regretful.

No wonder Old Qiao was so furious. Four to five million might be nothing to a rich man, but to a salaried class person like Qin Fanghuai, that's a lifetime of savings!

"Alas, what's the use of realizing it now? The money is gone, and my wife has left too. If regret were useful, I'd rather be dead than to have such things happen!"
