Chapter 230
"Alright mother, let''s not talk so much. Dr. Chen made a tiring journey here and is starving. Let''s
prepare the meal quickly!" Xenia Xu was aware of Fade Chen''s strength and skill, so she wasn''t too
concerned about the matter.
Xenia''s mother nodded a few times and went with Xenia to the kitchen to prepare the meal.
In no time, they came up with a few courses of delicious food.
The vegetables were freshly plucked from the garden. The chicken meat came from chickens that
were reared by the family. There was also pickled fish and dried meat. This was a spread indeed.
Together with the fragrant rice which was steamed with stoves on firewood, it was truly a
scrumptious meal.
Fade had arge bowl and he helped himself. In just a short time he had finished all the food in his
bowl.
Xenia then took Fade''s bowl and added more portions of food.
Beside them, her mother''s eyes twinkled as she looked on, as though catching on to something. A
smile appeared at the corner of
her mouth, and as she nced at Fade''s expression, she was even more satisfied.
"Fade, do help yourself. This meat is quite delicious, do eat as much as you can." Her mother
picked up the chicken meat enthusiastically with her chopsticks and handed it to him.
Fade thanked her and took a bite. He immediately was aware of the sulent taste of the meat. He
was surprised and said, "This is delicious indeed. The meat is so savory, and inparison to the
usual chicken meat, it is even more tasty."
Xenia immediatelyughed and said, "Of course, my mother prepared this dish herself. The meat
comes from a special type of chicken, which is called the pheasant. My family specializes in rearing
these pheasants. The taste of this meat is appetizing indeed."
"Pheasants!" Fade was a little taken aback. It was no wonder that the meat tasted so good. Xenia
nodded and said, "My mother caught them from the mountain many years ago. After rearing them
for several years, their numbers have gradually increased. Now there are more than a hundred of
them. Many restaurants in the town are fighting over these pheasants that my mother reared." "I
see! No wonder it''s so delicious. I should purchase some to bring home.Tade said with a smile.
Xenia''s mother said, "No need to purchase them, Dr. Chen, I''ll prepare some meat for you to bring
home."
"Thank you so much, auntie," Fade said with a smile. Then he took another big portion of the food
and savored the taste of each bite.
At this moment, there was a suddenmotion, and one could hear the sound of pheasants
clucking and dogs barking. There were also the sound of fluttering wings.
Xenia''s mother immediately set down her bowl and chopsticks and said, "The pheasants in the
coop must be causing trouble again. I''ll go and have a look. Go ahead with your meal!"
Fade and Xenia nodded and continued to eat. But not long after, Xenia''s mother suddenly cried out,
"My pheasants, how can this be?"
"No!"
Fade and Xenia''s faces fell instantly. They quickly set down their bowls and chopsticks, and walked
out.
The coop was behind the house, and it was surrounded by a fence made from tree branches and
bamboo.
But at this time, there was a gaping hole in the fence. Threerge and fierce wolf dogs had rushed
into the coop and were frantically biting and killing the pheasants.
Outside, Xenia''s mother was in absolute panic, but there was nothing she could do. She could only
look on as the wolf dogs attacked and kill the pheasants one by one.
Xenia looked at the wolf dogs and her expression suddenly turned cold. "These dogs belong to
Brett''s family."
She then turned her head, and sure enough, Brett Han was standing at a distance with a smirk on
his face. He had his arms crossed, and he had a gloating expression on his face as he watched
from afar.
Xenia was filled with rage. She red and walked towards Brett, yelling, "Brett, how could you
intentionally let your dogs into my pheasant coop?"
Brett feigned his innocence, saying, "Xenia, although we are intimate, you can''t spout nonsense like
that. I do not let my dogs out to roam! Clearly, these are a few wild dogs that broke into the coop
identally. I have nothing to do with it."
"Everyone in the vige knows that these three wolf dogs belong to your family. How dare you try to
deny it and argue with me!" Xenia was beside herself.
"You said that these dogs belong to my family. Where is the proof? Are there tags on them with my
name?" Brett had a defiant expression on his face, and he sneered as he looked on at the scene
where the wolf dogs were having their way.
Seeing that the wolf dogs had bitten and killed more than a dozen pheasants, Xenia and her mother
were so anxious that tears welled up in their eyes.
But Brett continued the charade, and acted like he was concerned. He said, "Xenia, would you like
me to help you? Just ask me nicely and I will help you drive the wild dogs away."
"Brett, you are shameless!" Xenia yelled.
Brett''s face fell, and he said, "Xenia, if we dy any more time, all your pheasants will be
completely wiped out."
"You..." Xenia was so angry that her face turnedpletely red.
At this moment, Fade gently held Xenia''s hands andforted her in a low voice, "Don''t worry, I''ll
deal with this situation."
As he spoke, Fade walked straight towards the coop.
Seeing this, Xenia''s mother couldn''t help but panic. She shouted, "Mr. Chen, please don''t go in
there. The wolf dogs are ferocious, it''s too dangerous for you to go in."
"Auntie, no worries. They are just a few wild dogs. I''m not afraid of them,"Fade said with a faint
smile.

Her mother still wanted to try to persuade him, but Xenia was aware of Fade''s strength, so she
stopped her from trying to convince him.
Brett looked on and sneered. "This stupid fellow, such a show off! These three wolf dogs are
imported breeds. One of them costs more than 100,000. When they are triggered they can easily kill
human beings."
At this moment, Fade entered the pheasant coop.
The three wolf dogs noticed Fade''s presence. Their eyes became fierce in an instant, and they
growled as they prepared to pounce on him.
Then, Fade red at the fiercely, and a gust of Qi emanated from his body. The three wolf dogs
suddenly whimpered and shrank to the ground with their tails between their legs. They started
trembling.
Brett noticed this and frowned. "What is happening right now? Why didn''t the wolf dogs attack that
fellow?"
Then, he whistled and pointed at Fade. This was a signal from the dog''s training indicating that they
should attack him.
Xenia was furious when she saw this. "Brett, you just told me that these dogs are not yours, but now
you are instructing them to attack others."
Brett denied this. "I just whistled for fun. Anyway, they are already on the attack, so I can''t do
anything about it. You''d better try not to nder me."
But at this moment, the wolf dogs that were supposed to attack Fade did not move. Instead, Fade
took the lead. He struck one of the wolf dog''s head with his palm, and with a snapping sound, the
wolf dog whimpered, fell to the ground and died.
Brett was shocked when this happened. He quickly shouted, "What are you doing? How dare you
kill my wolf dog? Do you know that one dog is worth more than a hundred thousand? Are you able
to pay apensation?"
Fade sneered and said, "Didn''t you just say they were wild dogs? This is of no concern of yours."
As he spoke, Fade struck another dog with his palm. There was a cracking sound and it died on the
spot.
Brett became anxious. He had spent a lot of money on these dogs, and a lot of time and effort had
gone into their training. Now two of them had been killed by Fade. This caused him great distress
indeed. He said, "Stop this right now. These are my dogs. You are not allowed to kill them!"
Fade ignored his words. He raised his palm again and struck thest wolf dog. There was a ringing
sound as it fell to the ground, dead.
