Chapter 284: Who Are You Trying to Scare?

Upon receiving the order from his father, the Young Man, Qu Lianjun, hurried off to make preparations.

At the same time, Qu Lianjun was secretly delighted. His father had entrusted him with an important task this time, which meant he had officially entered his father's line of sight and would likely be relied upon for important positions in the future.

Feeling wonderful inside, a smile naturally and involuntarily appeared on his face.

"Lianjun, what are you going to do?" A Young Man who looked older than Qu Lianjun walked out from the side, accompanied by several Family Servants, looking furious.

This Young Man was named Qu Shengtao, the second son of the Qu Family Head, Qu Yuan, and also Qu Lianjun's half-brother.

Qu Shengtao got angry the moment he saw his younger brother, Qu Lianjun. Last night, a Qu Family Shop was robbed, yet he was actually able to smile; he was truly heartless.

He didn't know why his father was so fond of him; it was truly unfair.

"Greetings, Second Brother. Father has an important matter for me to handle," Qu Lianjun replied, frowning.

He disliked his second brother very much.

The reason was that his second brother had an overbearing personality and acted recklessly, which was completely different from his own character.

"Father has something for you to do?" Upon hearing this, Qu Shengtao was immediately furious.

His father hadn't asked him to handle matters, but instead gave the task to his younger brother. Wasn't this favoritism?

"Go on then!" Qu Shengtao said. Although he was gritting his teeth in hatred, since his father had a task for his brother to handle, he dared not stop him.

If his brother reported him to their father because of his interference, it wouldn't be worth it.

Qu Lianjun cupped his hands and strode away.

"Let's go!" Seeing his brother leave, Qu Shengtao waved his hand at the Family Servants behind him and strode towards the gate.

At the Zhang Family residence, a servant saw the Qu Family's Second Young Master walking towards them and immediately ran into the Zhang Family, panicked, shouting, "It's bad! The Qu Family has brought people over!"

During this period, the entire Zhang Family had been guarding against the Qu Family. Now, upon hearing this shout, all the Martial Artists immediately picked up their Weapons and rushed out.

Qu Shengtao had just arrived at the Zhang Family residence with his Family Servants and hadn't even started to cause trouble yet, when he saw the Zhang family members acting as if they were facing a great enemy, leaving him completely bewildered.

"What's wrong with them?" Qu Shengtao asked the Family Servants behind him. "I came here to demand an explanation. Our Qu Family Shop was robbed, and they, the Zhang Family, are in the wrong. Why does it look as if they were the ones who were robbed?"

"I don't know. Perhaps it's because Young Master Qu's aura is too imposing. These servants have never seen such a grand aura, which is why they are panicked." The servant didn't know how to answer, but as long as he flattered him, it would be fine; in any case, Young Master Qu liked to hear it.

As expected, when Young Master Qu heard this, he immediately set aside his doubts, his face becoming smug as he shouted at the Zhang Family:

"Young Master Qu is here! Why aren't you coming out to welcome me yet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of Zhang Family Martial Artists rushed out holding Weapons, each looking at Young Master Qu and his group with guarded expressions. At the same time, Martial Artists from further away in the Zhang Family also rushed over. Soon, over a hundred Martial Artists had gathered, all holding Weapons.

Seeing this scene, Young Master Qu was dumbfounded.

He had come to demand an explanation, so why did it seem like the Zhang family were the ones demanding an explanation? Was there a need for so many people?

However, who was Young Master Qu? He was a person who feared neither heaven nor earth. Relying on being from the Qu Family and his father being a Martial Ancestor, he immediately straightened his clothes and shouted loudly, "What are you trying to do? When our Qu Family Shop was robbed, there wasn't even such a big commotion. You, on the other hand, have called out so many people. Who are you trying to scare?"
