A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 813 He Could Change the Geography

"Greetings, Mrs Chu!"

"Miss Qiu, you're here. Why didn't you tell us? We should have gone out to welcome you."

The beautiful and intoxicating woman before them was none other than Mr Chu's wife, Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Li Er and the others quickly greeted her reverently when Qiu Mu-Cheng arrived.

The fate of how high a woman rises through the social ladder, often hinged on their husbands.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was the descendant of an unimportant family and an ordinary woman.

However, Qiu Mu-Cheng was anything but ordinary after Ye Fan rose to become the King of Jiangdong.

"Hmm? And Miss Xu too? Didn't you go back to Yanjing, Miss Xu? Why are you in town?"

After they came closer, they noticed an elegant and dignified lovely woman standing behind Qiu Mu-Cheng.

They were familiar with the woman since she was the beautiful CEO of Hongqi Group, the Goddess of Yunzhou, Xu Lei. However, they had received no news about her ever since Xu Lei returned to her family.

So her sudden arrival came as a surprise to everyone.

"Enough. We can chat later. Since Mr Chu isn't around, why don't you and Miss Qiu take his seat?" suggested Li Er.

"Sure."

Xu Lei and Qiu Mu-Cheng nodded before taking their seats.

After everyone was seated and ready, Li Er started to speak, "Everyone, I know Mr Chu should be the one hosting this meeting, but he isn't around, and this is an urgent matter. With this in mind, I decided to just gather everyone to discuss things. I was the one who invited Miss Qiu and Miss Lei to join us. Since Mr Chu is the King of Jiangdong, it is very disrespectful to hold this meeting behind his back. Moreover, what we are about to do might affect Jiangdong's political situation in the future. Miss Qiu is Mr Chu's wife, so it makes sense for her to join us on his behalf. I'm sure you won't object, right?"

Lei San looked around as he asked.

Li Er and Chen Ao looked at each other, thinking what a wily old fox Lei San was. He was very meticulous about the meeting.

After all, if Lei San hadn't called Qiu Mu-Cheng along for this meeting and called for this meeting on his own, then when Mr Chu returned, he would think that Lei San was trying to overthrow him. Since he invited Qiu Mu-Cheng to join them, then no one would have a hold over him. Also, he could take the opportunity to prove his loyalty to Ye Fan.

I agree.

"Mr Chu doesn't have any children yet, so Miss Qiu should take his spot since he isn't around."

Everyone nodded in agreement. No one objected to Qiu Mu-Cheng's participation.

"Okay. In that case, let's commence."

Lei San drank some tea before he cleared his throat and continued, "I'm sure everyone knows that the Lei family is a martial arts clan. Our ancestors have taken up crucial roles within War God Castle and led the martial arts circle before, so among all of us, I probably know the martial arts world best, right? So I think no one will object if I host this meeting."

Although Lei San phrased his words like a question for everyone, he was really just asking Chen Ao and Li Er.

After all, other than Mr Chu, the only other people in Jiangdong who could compete with the Lei family from Jingzhou in terms of reputation were Chen Ao and Li Er.

If they didn't support it, it would be pointless to go on.

However, they were clearly sensible people who understood how time-sensitive the matter was.

In the face of a common enemy, Li Er and Chen Ao didn't attempt to steal the limelight and quickly nodded in agreement.

"San, just get to the point since really don't know the martial arts circle as well as you. For example, who on earth is Mochizuki Kawa? Why are our Chinese martial arts experts like Wu Qing, Master Tan, and the others so terrified of him? Is he really that incredible? Is he better than Wu He-Rong?" asked Chen Ao perplexedly.

Everyone turned to look at Lei San.

Even leaders like them clearly weren't well acquainted with the martial arts circle. They only knew about famous traditional Chinese martial arts like Wing Chun and Taiji.

Only a small number of martial artists existed in Jiangdong to begin with, so highly skilled martial artists were even rarer. Or else, they wouldn't have had such a tough time dealing with Wu He-Rong. So it was normal that most people didn't have a clear understanding.

Lei San went quiet for a few moments before he nodded.

"Mochizuki Kawa is very powerful! Wu He-Rong is peanuts compared to him. Also, you might not know this, but Mochizuki Kawa came to China 30 years ago. Back then, he was already a highly skilled grandmaster!"

"Also, his master used to be the number one martial artist in Japan and an expert in the Aoki Sword Technique. He came to China 30 years ago and challenged every martial arts academy here. He went to Jiangnan, Jiangbei, then Xinan, and went all over the country. Everywhere he went, he kept killing nonstop, annihilating everyone in his path! He killed almost all the fighters in our 16 coastal provinces." "Of course, you might not realize how strong he is when you hear this. You have probably seen Jingzhou's Yellow River, right? The river has been going nonstop all these years. There is a 100 meter river channel that exists thanks to him! He can change the geography with one stroke of his sword!"

What?

There was silence.

A long deathly silence fell!

At the drop of Lei San's voice, the room fell silent.

Everyone stared while they trembled in their hearts.

He could change the geography with one stroke of his sword?

Oh my goodness!

He was really powerful!

Li Er and the others finally realized what Ye Fan was saying when he said that bullets and cannons were futile against truly powerful martial artists! "Then? Did Mochizuki Kawa defeat everyone he challenged?" someone asked after a few moments of silence.

Lei San shook his head and replied, "Of course not. Even though our martial arts circles isn't as powerful as it used to be, we have a 5000 year long history, so we aren't easy targets either. Back in the day when Mochizuki Kawa wreaked havoc in China, it was a huge matter. In the end, even the highest authority of the martial arts circle, War God Castle, got involved. Just as they were about to send experts to help, a 20 something year old young man from the Jiangnan armed forces unexpectedly stepped forward. He happened to be in Jiangdong on a mission and encountered Mochizuki Kawa in Jingzhou! So the battle of the millennia took place on the banks of the Yellow River."
