"Oh no!"
Edwin Chen turned pale in an instant, his eyebrows, nose, mouth, and face all trembling violently. His goldfish-like eyes were filled with indescribable horror!
Originally considered useless in the Chu family, in less than fifteen seconds, he had become like the Grim Reaper, taking down ten top-tier bodyguards!
"Little Edwin, are you scared now?"
Ferrid Chu's face, which had been chillingly calm, suddenly appeared in front of Edwin Chen. In his hand, he already had the throat of a clerk from the pharmacy!
"Do you dare to kill someone from the Chen family? Do you know the position of the Chen family in Maple City? Is this something you can provoke? Let me go, and you might still have a way out!" The clerk shouted fiercely, even in the face of impending death.
"Bang!"
As the clerk's throat was crushed by Ferrid Chu, blood splattered on Edwin Chen's face, even in his mouth, causing him to freeze and stiffen.
"Chu... Ferrid Chu... Please don't kill me!"
Edwin Chen trembled uncontrollably, cold sweat pouring down his body. He fell to his knees in front of Ferrid Chu. "Please don't kill me. I'll do anything you ask!"
"Now, transfer all your money to this account. You've really frightened me, so consider this compensation for my mental distress!" Ferrid Chu tossed the account details that he had previously demanded from Jim Chu to Edwin Chen.
"Alright, I have thirty million in my account. I'll transfer it!" Edwin Chen fumbled with his phone, trembling.
"You only have thirty million?"
Ferrid Chu smirked. Without hesitation, he stomped on one of Edwin Chen's feet!
"Oh no!"
Edwin Chen let out another scream, sounding like a pig being slaughtered. However, the soundproofing in Chen's Pharmacy was highly effective. Even if he screamed his lungs out, no one outside would hear.
"If I think you're not telling the truth, you won't have the other foot either!"
Ferrid Chu's voice was calm, but filled with murderous intent.
"I have a total of one billion. I'll give it all to you! I'll give it all to you!" Edwin Chen dared not play tricks anymore. Enduring the intense pain, he transferred one billion.
"Ding!"
In the van outside Chen's Pharmacy, Jim Chu received a text message, confirming the receipt of one billion. He was instantly astonished, unable to find words, but he immediately understood that this was undoubtedly Ferrid Chu's doing!
"Master Chu, I've given you all my money, one billion. Can you spare my life now?" Edwin Chen had long lost his former haughty demeanour. At this moment, he looked pitiful and begged.
"What's this?"
Ferrid Chu's gaze fell on the jade pendant hanging around Edwin Chen's neck. This jade was from their Chu family. Whoever managed the pharmacy in the Chu family would wear it.
Ferrid Chu remembered clearly that this jade was worn by Jim Chu.
Afterwards, Edwin Chen must have thought this jade pendant looked good and claimed it for himself!
"Damn it, everything in this room originally belonged to my Chu family. I'll take back what's rightfully mine!"
Ferrid Chu yanked off the jade pendant, carefully stowed it away, and then, with his index and middle fingers pinched together, directly pierced Edwin Chen's jaw!
"Splurt!"
Blood gushed like a fountain, and Edwin Chen stared at Ferrid Chu in horror. Then, he tightly covered his jaw with both hands, letting out a heart-wrenching scream.
"Daring to wear my Chu family's jade pendant, this is your punishment! I might spare your life, but I will make sure you experience the cruelty of the world!"
Ferrid Chu's lips curled slightly, a mocking smile on his face.
Then, he found a large sack, stuffed all the valuable herbs from Chen's Pharmacy into it, slung it over his shoulder, and swaggered out of the pharmacy.
Only then did Edwin Chen realize why Ferrid Chu spared his life. It was because he had lost the valuable herbs of Chen's Pharmacy. If the head of the Chen family found out, he was sure to be killed!
"The Golden Cup is spacious!"
Ferrid Chu opened the trunk, threw the bulging sack onto the car, and sighed.
"Brother Ferrid, are you okay?"
Hazel Tang saw Ferrid Chu get into the car and asked worriedly.
"Ferrid, Manager Chu said he suddenly got an extra billion in his account. Was that your doing?"
Chu Xin also asked with concern.
"Hehe, of course it was me!" Ferrid Chu turned to look at Jim Chu. "Manager Chu, consider this a start-up fund. Tonight, we'll stay in a luxury hotel, have a big feast, and tomorrow, find us a discreet good mansion!"
"Don't worry, Young Master! I, Jim Chu, will make sure it's done!" After enduring a year of frustration, Jim Chu felt extremely relieved tonight.
"Here!"
Ferrid Chu handed the jade pendant to Jim Chu.
"Ah! This is..."
Jim Chu recognized the object before him, and his eyes instantly moistened, a sense of excitement as if something lost had been reclaimed.
"Manager, I'll keep a portion of the herbs in this sack, and you should store the rest properly. We'll use them when we reopen the pharmacy in the future." Ferrid Chu casually instructed.
"Understood, Young Master. Let me take a look."
Opening the sack, Jim Chu was shocked once again. Inside the sack were extremely valuable herbs, and even low-grade pills used by cultivators. The price of these pills was even more exorbitant!
That night, Jim Chu found a secluded luxury hotel for Ferrid Chu and ordered a large table of delicacies for Hazel Tang, Chu Xin, and Ferrid Chu.
Ferrid Chu also invited Jim Chu, along with Jim Chu's daughter, to join them for dinner.
Hazel Tang and Chu Xin were still a bit dazed. The man they cared most about had indeed returned in the flesh, but they felt as if they were in a dream.
Especially with Ferrid Chu's transformation, it was too immense.
So Chu Xin curiously asked Ferrid Chu where he had been this past year and what had happened.
Ferrid Chu only glossed over it, mentioning that he had met a master. However, he didn't utter a word about Zi Yun Sect or Iris Nan Gong.
Ferrid Chu took a deep gulp of wine, his gaze shifting to the window, his expression turning dark. In his heart, he began to plan a grand scheme, with revenge at its core!
The Chen family.
Euan Chen looked at Nora Chen lying on the bed, her body covered in blood, her limbs already gone. His eyelids twitched violently.
His gaze then shifted to his son Nolen Chen's lifeless body, which had a gaping hole in its chest. Euan Chen felt his vision blur, almost stumbling.
"Damn it!"
"I'm going to tear that Chu family waste into a million pieces!"
"I'm going to make him live forever in hell!"
Euan Chen's eyes were bloodshot, his face so terrifying that he seemed ready to kill at any moment. He roared loudly, having spent decades in Maple City, he had never suffered such a huge loss!
"Master, Edwin Chen has returned!"
A servant rushed in, frantic.
"Master, our pharmacy has been robbed!"
Edwin Chen, holding his jaw and leaning on a crutch, limped in.
"What?! Someone dared to rob my pharmacy?"
Euan Chen's face turned incredulous. In Maple City, there was actually someone daring enough to rob their Chen family's pharmacy. This was truly intolerable!
"It was Ferrid Chu from the Chu family. He didn't die all those years ago! He's back and he took nearly ten billion worth of herbs and pills. The current Ferrid Chu is nothing like the old one, he's become extremely powerful!"
Edwin Chen witnessed Ferrid Chu with his own eyes. In just a few breaths, he killed ten bodyguards and strangled a clerk. This left Edwin Chen trembling like a startled bird. When it came to Ferrid Chu, his face turned ashen!
"Edwin Chen, are you trying to boost someone else's morale and undermine my authority, Euan Chen? I trusted you to manage the pharmacy, but you ended up losing over ten billion worth of our resources. You even glorified Ferrid Chu. Go accompany my son!"
Picking up the ashtray from the table, Euan Chen fiercely smashed it towards Edwin Chen's head!
