Chapter 407: Who’s Finished!?
“That’s truly a pity,” Fang Yu smiled.
Ares looked at Fang Yu with disgust on his face.
He was the Crown Prince of the Nord royal family—how noble was his status?
What right did Fang Yu have to speak to him like that?
Initially, Ares didn’t want to bother with Fang Yu, as it would lower his dignity.
But Fang Yu’s smile and fearless attitude gradually ignited the flames of anger in his heart.
He knew that Fang Yu was Qin Lang’s friend.
But that relationship alone wasn’t enough to justify Fang Yu’s arrogance.
The Qin family was merely one of many partners of the Nord royal family. Even if Qin Lang himself were standing before him, Ares wouldn’t fear him.
“Mr. Fang…” Luoxi stood at the front of the crowd, her face turning pale as she saw Fang Yu confronting Ares.
She clearly understood how powerful Ares’s background was.
Although Fang Yu was strong, he was just one person facing Prince Ares of the Nord royal family!
In a confrontation between an individual and a royal family, the outcome was obvious!
Moreover, given Ares’s status, everyone present would stand on his side!
Whatever Fang Yu did would be considered wrong!
What should she do now?
Luoxi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, with thin beads of sweat appearing on her smooth forehead.
“So, what are you going to do?” Fang Yu asked.
Ares revealed a cold smile and said, “I’ll make you regret your actions tonight.”
As he spoke, Ares stepped forward.
Luoxi knew she couldn’t let Fang Yu and Ares come to blows!
If the situation developed that way, it would be irreversible!
Without thinking too much, Luoxi rushed forward and stood in front of Fang Yu.
Seeing Luoxi appear, both Fang Yu and Ares were stunned.
Ares frowned, looking at the pale-faced, rapidly breathing Luoxi, and said, “Miss Luo, what do you mean by this?”
“I, I…” Luoxi was too nervous to breathe. She knew that stepping forward at this moment was foolish.
But Fang Yu had saved her life, and she couldn’t just stand by and watch!
“Prince Ares, this is all a misunderstanding… Mr. Fang absolutely meant no offense to Prince Apollo or you… please…” Luoxi said with sweat on her forehead.
Ares looked at Luoxi’s perfect features and pale face, then glanced at Fang Yu behind her, his frown deepening.
Luoxi’s behavior suggested she cared deeply about Fang Yu.
That made him even more determined to finish Fang Yu.
Luoxi was the woman Ares had his eye on, and he wouldn’t allow anyone else to desecrate her!
“The dignity of the Nord royal family cannot be challenged! Miss Luo, please step aside.” Ares said with a stern gaze.
As he spoke, the aura around him grew stronger.
Luoxi’s delicate body trembled, and her heart sank.
“Luoxi, what are you doing? Come back immediately!” At this moment, a bald middle-aged man in the crowd shouted loudly.
Hearing this voice, Luoxi’s body jolted, and her face grew even paler.
It was her uncle, Luo Zhenghua.
“Come down right now! Don’t embarrass yourself!” Luo Zhenghua shouted again, his face ashen.
The Luo family was indeed a top-tier wealthy family in Huaibei, but they were nothing compared to the Nord royal family.
Today, he had brought Luoxi here hoping to use her to connect with Prince Ares and then find a way to attach themselves to the powerful Nord royal family.
And he had bet correctly—Luoxi and Prince Ares had been conversing pleasantly, making good progress.
But now, Luoxi rushing up to obstruct Prince Ares would surely displease him!
All their previous efforts would be wasted!
Luoxi stood frozen, not knowing what to do.
Luo Zhenghua quickly walked forward, pulled Luoxi away, and bowed to Ares, repeatedly apologizing: “I’m sorry, Your Highness, Luoxi had a bit to drink and might be acting irrationally…”
Ares glanced at Luo Zhenghua and waved his hand, signaling him to leave.
Luo Zhenghua pulled Luoxi outside the crowd.
“What are you trying to do? Where’s your brain!?” Luo Zhenghua scolded, jabbing his finger at Luoxi’s forehead.
Luoxi’s eyes reddened as she said, “Fang Yu saved my life…”
“Saved your life? What nonsense! If your actions displease the prince, our Luo family could be ruined in an instant!” Luo Zhenghua raged.
“Ruined? The Nord royal family is just a European royal family—no matter how powerful, their reach isn’t that long!” Luoxi retorted.
“You know nothing! Do you know why this exchange meeting is being held today? Do you know that everyone here wants to connect with Ares, to establish ties with the Nord royal family? In this situation, if Ares wants to target any family, it’s just a matter of saying the word,” Luo Zhenghua said, suppressing his anger.
Luoxi lowered her head and said nothing more.
“After this is over, you will apologize properly to Prince Ares and seek his forgiveness, understand!?” Luo Zhenghua commanded.
Luoxi bit her red lips, her fists clenched tightly.
…
“Do you know why my father named me Ares?” Ares took out a pair of white gloves from his jacket pocket and slowly put them on.
“Your father was probably a mythology enthusiast?” Fang Yu said.
Ares gave a cold laugh and said, “Ares, the god of war and violence. Our Nord royal family are descendants of the gods, blessed by them. My father named me Ares hoping I would become the strongest of this generation, like the god of war.”
As he spoke, Ares finished putting on his white gloves and walked toward Fang Yu.
Behind him, Apollo’s face revealed a cruel smile that didn’t match his age.
The surrounding guests held their breath.
Prince Ares was going to take action himself!?
What was he going to do? How would he do it?
Was he really going to kill Fang Yu in public?
Although it seemed outrageous, if Ares did so, no one would dare stop him!
“Boss, what should we do now? The situation has completely deviated from our plan!” Clark asked with a grim face from a corner of the hall.
“I suggest we retreat first and reformulate our plan later,” Rhodes said solemnly from another corner.
“…No, there’s no need. Our opportunity will come soon,” Violet said calmly.
…
Facing the slowly approaching Ares, Fang Yu remained motionless, still maintaining his nonchalant expression.
From beginning to end, he had done nothing—it was Apollo who had been causing trouble.
However, if Ares wanted to make a move, that suited Fang Yu just fine.
He also wanted to see how skilled someone who emanated divine power and claimed to be a descendant of the gods really was.
“Prince Ares, please reconsider.”
Just as Ares was about to reach Fang Yu, Qin Lang stepped out from the crowd and spoke with a grave expression.
Finally here?
Ares looked at Qin Lang and raised a slight smile, saying, “Mr. Qin, I knew you would intervene.”
“I…” Qin Lang’s expression changed as he tried to speak.
“But my patience has reached its limit. You cannot protect Fang Yu. If you want to stop me, feel free to try,” Ares said, his smile suddenly disappearing.
Looking at Ares’s expression, Qin Lang knew further words were useless.
He then looked at Fang Yu, who appeared completely relaxed.
“Sigh.”
Qin Lang sighed.
He hadn’t come out to protect Fang Yu.
On the contrary, he wanted to protect Ares.
He knew that if they really came to blows, the best outcome for Ares would be severe injury.
This wasn’t good news for the Qin family, which wanted to continue cooperating with the Nord royal family in the future.
However, since Ares was being aggressive and unwilling to back down, Qin Lang had nothing more to say.
Compared to the Nord royal family, Fang Yu was the more important person.
“Very well, I’ll step back,” Qin Lang raised his hands, showing a helpless expression, and retreated.
As he backed away, Qin Lang looked at Fang Yu.
He saw Fang Yu’s lips curl into a slight smile.
“Ares is finished.”
Qin Lang seemed to have already seen the outcome.
Qin Lang’s retreat made the guests admire Ares even more.
This was the confidence of a prince from a thousand-year-old royal family!
He didn’t even give face to the young master of the Qin family!
Instead, the Qin family’s young master was forced to retreat by his aura, not daring to say another word!
What powerful presence!
Many people resolved in their hearts that no matter how low they had to stoop, they would connect with Prince Ares and attach themselves to the Nord royal family!
Ares walked to less than half a meter from Fang Yu, raising his right hand in its white glove, about to speak.
At that moment, Fang Yu suddenly lifted his foot.
The movement was too fast for Ares to react!
“Bang!”
With a muffled sound, Ares groaned in pain and was thrown backward.
“The time has come, act immediately!”
Simultaneously, Violet’s expression sharpened as she gave the order.
“Understood!” Rhodes and Clark responded in unison.
The next second, the entire restaurant’s power supply was suddenly cut off, extinguishing all lights!
The entire hall was instantly plunged into darkness!
