At this time, all the senior officials of the Zhuge family, including the ancestor Zhuge Ziyun and the head of the family Zhuge Leiyin, were all in extreme panic.
As the leaders of this hidden family, they have lived for most of their lives and experienced ups and downs. What storms and waves have they not seen?
However, this was the first time they encountered this scene that could not be explained by common sense.
It's ridiculous that Zhuge Ziyun had always been confident in his strategizing.
But Chen Qi showed him with his actual actions that any conspiracy, conspiracy, evil spirit, or demon was so pale and powerless in the face of absolute strength.
Ding~~~
But Chen Qi slowly took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it to his lips and lit it.
Hey~~~Hu~~~
The smoke is flying like clouds and fog.
His sight passed through the void of more than ten feet and landed accurately on Zhuge Ziyun.
Zhuge Ziyun's previous proud look was gone, replaced by a biting chill that spread throughout his body.
His awe-inspiring pride, which was not compromised by anything, also collapsed at this moment.
Ta~~~ta~~~ta~~~
Chen Qi stepped forward slowly and rhythmically, walking towards Zhuge Ziyun and others step by step.
I don't know whether it was due to the terrifying pressure on Chen Qi or the fear in his heart. Every time Chen Qi took a step, everyone in the Zhuge family became shorter.
When Chen Qi stood in front of them, many people were already cowering on the ground in fear, trembling.
Zhuge Ziyun's scalp was numb and he did not dare to make the slightest move.
He had the intention to escape, but at this moment, after witnessing Chen Qi's celestial methods, where else could he escape?
Feeling the depressing atmosphere of the scene, Zhuge Leiyin took the initiative to stand up, with a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Mr. Chen, Governor Chen, it turns out you are still alive. We learned earlier that you were trapped in the [Ten Thousand Mists Forest], and we have been worried about you."
Chen Qi raised his eyebrows and cast his gaze on Zhuge Leiyin. His eyes were full of meaning and he was smiling.
Zhuge Leiyin also knew that what he said seemed to be a sign of flattery, but he still had the courage to continue speaking.
"You are the commander-in-chief of an army. You have achieved great achievements and are famous all over the world. We have been disrespectful in the past, which was all misunderstandings. Based on your standards, you should not be able to be serious with little people like us."
"Commander of an army?"
Chen Qi seemed to have heard the funniest thing in the world and burst into laughter.
"Master Zhuge, I don't think you are stupid, so why are you pretending to be confused?"
"Since the first day Chen entered the territory of [Longzhong], have you, the Zhuge family, ever treated me as the commander-in-chief of an army?"
"They used coercion and inducement to lure me here, then left me alone for several days and gave me power.
Then you let me go to the hinterland of your Zhuge family on my own, and you set up a roadblock to intercept me, trying to embarrass me?"
"If the negotiation fails in the end, we might as well break up and send an army to strangle me."
Chen Qi spit out a mouthful of mist, narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Now you tell me, all of this is a misunderstanding?"
"Do you think I am as easy to fool as a pig or a dog, or do you think I am as stupid and ignorant as you pigs and dogs?"
Zhuge Leiyin: "..."
Chen Qi's words were equivalent to pointing his finger at everyone in the Zhuge family and scolding them. Their IQs were inferior to those of pigs and dogs.
If this were the case in the past, if they heard someone dare to say such treasonous words, they would have been so angry that they would have screamed and threatened to cut Chen Qi into pieces and so on.
But, at this moment, I am a knife-sitter and I am a fish-meat.
No matter how unpleasant words Chen Qi said, they had no choice but to swallow their anger.
Chen Qi looked contemptuously at everyone in the Zhuge family, "A descendant of Zhuge Kongming?"
"Chen has rarely been involved in historical affairs, but he often heard how Zhuge Kongming was a man of great righteousness."
"In order to repay the kindness of my lord, I devoted myself to my duty, dedicated myself to the best of my ability, and died."
"But in you, the descendants of the Zhuge family, Chen only sees arrogance, ignorance, domineering, and shameless cowardice!"
Zhuge Ziyun puffed up his chest proudly and snorted coldly, "Chen Qi, you don't need to rely on your own strength to trample on the dignity of the Zhuge family at will."
"My Zhuge family has been inherited for thousands of years. How can you, an ordinary person, evaluate it at will?"
"Today we were defeated at your hands. That's because our skills are inferior to others. If you want to kill or behead, you have to do whatever you want!"
"Ha ha!"
Chen Qi laughed loudly, "What a saying, 'Kill or behead, it's up to you.' This sentence almost made my ears tingle."
"Old Ghost Zhuge, you always put on such an aura of not fearing power. Don't you feel that you are very brave and courageous?"
I remember that when Zhuge Ziyun was in danger before, he used to show his fearlessness many times by saying, "If you want to kill or behead, please do whatever you want."
, it can be said that it has been tried and tested repeatedly.
It gives the impression that Zhuge Ziyun really thought that Chen Qi did not dare to touch him.
Chen Qi sneered and shook his head, "But in my eyes, these behaviors are like a delusional old man who is relying on his old age and thinking that he is right!"
Zhuge Ziyun continued to hold his head high, "I am the ancestor of the Zhuge family, and I have been in charge of the Zhuge family for hundreds of years! If anything happens to me, and the Zhuge family comes to the world in anger, it will definitely turn the world upside down!"
"So, this is where your arrogance comes from?"
Chen Qi looked at Zhuge Ziyun with the eyes of a frog in a well.
The Zhuge family is indeed powerful and a truly reclusive family. It is even better than some of the royal families today.
Not only do they secretly control local political power, but they also possess wealth that rivals that of the country. In the eyes of ordinary people, they are a behemoth that cannot compete with them.
Can……
Snapped!
Chen Qi slapped several people in succession from left to right. Blood, mixed with some fallen teeth, spattered everywhere.
Poof~~~
Zhuge Ziyun was the hardest hit. He looked confused and couldn't believe that he was slapped in public by a junior who was several generations younger.
"You, you dare to hit me?"
Chen Qi looked indifferent, "This slap is a warning to you that this world is no longer the world you imagined, where the weak can prey on the strong and bully others at will."
"But a world with rules, laws, and truth!"
No rules, no standards.
The reason why the Zhuge family is so self-righteous, aloof and aggressive is nothing more than a concept passed down from the era when the jungle was strong.
They may not realize that that feudal society has long been eliminated by today's era.
Justice and truth are the mainstream of today's era!
