Looking at Luo Xi's complex expression, Liu Zixuan snickered, "Am I so handsome that you're at a loss for words to express it?"
Luo Xi crossed his arms and said seriously, "I'm beginning to doubt what you said earlier was true, and not just you bragging to me!"
"What did I say?" Liu Zixuan asked blankly.
"You said you're the young master of the largest family in Star Sea." Luo Xi asked in all seriousness, "But I've never heard of a big family with the surname Liu!"
Poof!
Liu Zixuan burst into laughter, hugged Luo Xi's shoulder, and said, "Should I call you naive or innocent? That statement was really just bragging!"
"If I truly were the young master of Star Sea's largest family, would I even be here? I'd probably have already bought a small island and be cruising around it every day with countless beauties."
Luo Xi frowned and asked, "Then why are you so capable?"
"Because I'm handsome, heaven gives handsome guys some special abilities!" Liu Zixuan leaned closer to Luo Xi and whispered with a smile, "Besides being good at fighting, I'm also quite skilled in bed, as you know from experience!"
Luo Xi's face immediately flushed, and he glared at him, "Big handsome guy, since you beat up Golden Grandpa, you should treat us tonight, right?"
"No problem. Just say whatever you want to eat!"
Saying this, Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi headed out of the photo studio.
The news of Liu Zixuan sweeping aside Golden Grandpa and his most formidable henchman, Fan Xingkong, quickly spread throughout West City.
It wasn't that people were too well-informed, but the next day Fan Xingkong used a significant portion of Golden Grandpa's inheritance to host a grand funeral!
During the event, there was a bit of a mishap—they didn't invite some big names, which nearly caused chaos at the funeral.
In this day and age, if you don't invite those guys to your wedding, they get upset. Not inviting them to a funeral is even worse.
Just because Fan Xingkong didn't invite them, several big names almost turned the whole funeral upside down. Only after explaining did they discover Golden Grandpa didn't die a normal death but was killed by Liu Zixuan!
Because of this, Liu Zixuan's name spread rapidly through most of West City within a single day, reaching even the ears of the upper echelons of the powerful families!
The funeral was grand, but the ending was jaw-dropping because Fan Xingkong didn't buy Golden Grandpa a plot in a large cemetery or get him a premium plot in a good location.
He casually hired some people who directly drove Golden Grandpa to the hillside on the outskirts of town to be buried!
Thinking back, Golden Grandpa was once a renowned figure in West City, commanding great respect wherever he went, with everyone bowing and respectfully calling him Golden Grandpa.
But the result was that, neither outsiders nor Golden Grandpa himself expected his final resting place to be so impoverished.
The saying "when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter" fits here—when Golden Grandpa fell, some of his minor industries and previously forcibly occupied businesses all started operating independently, breaking free from his grasp!
After Fan Xingkong held the funeral for Golden Grandpa, he took all his estate and allocated sixty percent to Liu Zixuan, half of the remaining forty percent for himself, and the other half to those below him.
Meanwhile, the people led by Fan Xingkong scattered completely! Within a day, they took the money and almost all left Celestial Capital.
It was a very generous sum, enough for them to live their remaining lives peacefully if not squandered.
As for Fan Xingkong, before leaving, he met Liu Zixuan, expressing his intent to not stay in Celestial Capital anymore, thinking of moving to a second-tier city to continue his old profession of jade gambling.
Of course, before leaving, he also bought some things for Liu Zixuan and Luo Xi, spending a hundred thousand on fireworks for Liu Zixuan's clinic, setting them off right in front, making it quite a grand opening ceremony!
Golden Grandpa's people either died, were injured, or scattered, while Niu Laowu and his two subordinates became beggars, being placed at the street corners of Si Ju Road by Fan Xingkong's group.
They no longer dared to offend Liu Zixuan; even the once mighty Golden Grandpa fell victim to Liu Zixuan, leaving them powerless to resist!
Understandably, people on the whole street loathed them. Seeing them as beggars, they nearly set up banquets to celebrate.
In the days following, they were greeted with cold stares and constant scorn!
Two days passed by in a flash.
This afternoon, Liu Zixuan was treating patients at the clinic, while Luo Xi played with his phone on the side. The two of them enjoyed a leisure moment.
After sending off the last patient, Liu Zixuan stretched and smiled, "Relaxing days really make one feel uneasy!"
"So you find peaceful days uncomfortable? You really need constant fighting and chaos to feel good?" Luo Xi glared at him, "I don't understand your thinking!"
"If I can continue to live peaceful days, that would be great!" Liu Zixuan shrugged.
The quiet over the past two days has been too unusual.
Golden Grandpa, a renowned figure with significant influence in West City, is dead.
Based on previous rumors in the Celestial Capital, with Golden Grandpa gone and Liu Zixuan here, they would certainly collectively ostracize Liu Zixuan!
Yet, two days have passed without any movement!
There are only two possibilities!
First, they are brewing something, either investigating Liu Zixuan's background or discussing what to do! In any case, the calm of these two days is undoubtedly the precursor to a storm.
Second, in the eyes of those people, Golden Grandpa is worthless, so they don't bother with Liu Zixuan and thus don't need to intervene!
Among these possibilities, Liu Zixuan tends towards the first; he believes no force or family wants a foreign powerful presence to suddenly emerge.
Because they also fear placing a wild wolf at their doorstep, which might one day swallow them up as Liu Zixuan did!
Luo Xi walked over with his phone: "Don't overthink it. Have a look at these clothes and see which one you like!"
Liu Zixuan took the phone and saw they were all autumn clothes, arching his brows, "In such a hurry to buy now?"
"It's cheap to buy now, don't you know? Plus, they're on sale today! Quickly pick which one you like!" Luo Xi tugged Liu Zixuan with a word.
Liu Zixuan helplessly pinched his forehead; he really had no concept of this. After casually browsing the clothes, he intended to choose one randomly but noticed something novel on the adjacent page, immediately showing a wicked smile.
ps: This should be Chapter 13. I've been gathering material these days, sleeping only 2-3 hours each night, plus working during the day. Now my fingers, neck, and waist are incredibly sore. I truly can't hold on anymore, so Ye Zi will rest now, and updates will continue after waking up.
