Chapter 680: Chapter 680: The Nobles Often Forget
Leng Bosun seemed unsurprised, a smirk tugging at his lips: "What, are you not afraid anymore?"
"Afraid! Of course I’m afraid! But I’d rather watch them all die! This ecstasy far outweighs my fear!" Lv Liang gripped the wine glass fiercely.
With a cracking sound, the glass shattered.
Indeed, Lv Liang now harbored grave hatred towards Zeng Chang and Ye Guichen.
Seeing them die in agony had unwittingly become Lv Liang’s life’s goal.
Leng Bosun reached into his pants pocket and threw a piece of paper in front of Lv Liang: "Alright then, go here at ten o’clock tonight, my men will meet you there and we’ll take action together. Don’t worry, no one will know about this. Once it’s done, you’ll reclaim what’s rightfully yours."
After speaking, Leng Bosun turned and left.
Lv Liang lowered his head, looking at the piece of paper.
It had an address written on it.
A bloodthirsty frenzy curled at his lips, Lv Liang picked up the bottle of wine on the table and drank it in one gulp.
After Leng Bosun left the bar, he got into a Lincoln car and then took out his phone to dial a number: "Chairman, it’s done."
From the other end of the phone came a woman’s low laugh.
Simultaneously, a slightly intoxicated voice echoed: "Secretary Leng, I trust your work. Hehe, I’ll hang up now. Keep an eye on the Azure Dragon Commerce for me. Once I’m discharged, it will be time for us to display grand ambitions."
"Chairman Tianxing, rest assured." Leng Bosun respectfully hung up the phone, but a shrewd glint flashed deep in his eyes.
He stared at his phone and opened a camera app.
Soon, an image appeared, and it looked like a hospital room.
...
Meanwhile, in the VIP room at the hospital.
Wang Tianxing was still lying on the bed.
However, his complexion had improved a lot.
Beside him were two beautiful women.
One was dressed as a nurse, and the other in a stewardess uniform.
One of the beauties was sprawled on Wang Tianxing’s chest, while the other held a cherry in her mouth, continuously teasing him.
...
"Hehe, after all, they’re still young!" Leng Bosun turned off the video, leaned back against the chair, and ordered: "Make sure the people who act do it cleanly. Tell them that this affair has nothing to do with the Azure Dragon Commerce, it’s all Lv Liang’s doing. If anything goes wrong, they should be prepared to lose their lives!"
The driver didn’t turn around, but replied: "Understood."
At ten o’clock at night.
In a bathroom in Guanghan Palace.
Zeng Chang had just taken a bath and was now lying on the bed, comfortably enjoying a massage from a beauty.
The day’s events had drained him.
It took considerable effort to suppress the incident of the Martial Arts Association’s people being crippled, ensuring it didn’t reach the chairman’s ears.
Though he dispatched people to investigate Ye Guichen, they found nothing useful.
The only thing they could verify was that Ye Guichen had an unusual connection with the Jinling Prince Mansion.
Besides that, they couldn’t fathom why Ye Guichen could act so audaciously.
"Could he really rely solely on the Jinling Prince Mansion to face off with the Martial Arts Association?" Zeng Chang’s face turned sullen.
On the adjacent massage bed lay another person, none other than the Chinese Medicine Association’s Cao Xiu.
Cao Xiu, seemingly aware of the day’s events, sighed with his eyes closed: "Brother Zeng, I didn’t expect that kid to have such guts, to dare single-handedly confront both the Chinese Medicine Association and the Martial Arts Association. Even the Jinling King wouldn’t have such courage, right?"
Zeng Chang was extremely irritated: "Brother Cao, your words may be true, but I surely can’t swallow this resentment. By the way, didn’t you say your chairman has already gone to see the Jinling King? What’s the outcome?"
Cao Xiu snorted: "That old thing is regressing with age, he’s so timid. Since his return from the Jinling Prince Mansion, he even instructed the entire Chinese Medicine Association not to take any rash actions and wait for the Medicine King Valley’s people to handle it. I think he just doesn’t have the guts to deal with that Ye surnamed troublemaker."
Zeng Chang agreed: "Initially, I thought your chairman is just a timid person. If it were our Martial Arts Association’s chairman, he would have toppled the Jinling Prince Mansion long ago. Damn it, but this matter..."
Speaking, Zeng Chang suddenly sat up, eyes vigilantly directed at the room door.
Cao Xiu was startled, suspiciously asking: "Brother Zeng, what’s wrong?"
In the past, Cao Xiu and Zeng Chang had often conspired together.
As a member of the Chinese Medicine Association, Cao Xiu also ran the Chinese Medicine Hall, and it was inevitable that some slip-ups would occur in treating patients.
Whenever problems arose, Cao Xiu would immediately call upon Zeng Chang to resolve them.
With Zeng Chang’s position in the Martial Arts Association and his readiness for combat, their cooperation over the years was seamless.
This time, they hadn’t expected Ye Guichen to provoke both the Chinese Medicine Association and the Martial Arts Association simultaneously.
Hence, when they couldn’t think of a solution, Zeng Chang always looked to Cao Xiu for ideas.
After all, though Zeng Chang could fight, he deemed himself no match for Cao Xiu in scheming.
Zeng Chang made a gesture for silence, pointed at the door, then grabbed a beauty who was massaging him and shoved her violently toward the door.
Bang bang bang!
The next second, a series of impact sounds rang out.
Several crossbow arrows shot through the door, hitting the beauty repeatedly.
The beauty, pierced by multiple arrows, died instantly.
The remaining beauties screamed in terror and quickly hid under the tables and chairs.
Cao Xiu also jumped up, his face turning pale: "Brother Zeng, damn it, this is Guanghan Palace, your Martial Arts Association’s territory! How could anyone dare commit murder here?"
As he spoke, someone kicked the door open.
Soon, three men stormed into the room.
The three men were masked, holding crossbows.
One of them quickly shut the door, blocking the exit, seemingly fearing someone might escape.
"Who are you people?" Zeng Chang grabbed a steel pipe from the bedside, glaring at the intruders.
Their tactics were evidently proficient.
He simply couldn’t fathom how they dared to recklessly storm into the Martial Arts Association’s territory.
Though Cao Xiu was skilled in medicine, his martial prowess was average.
He glanced at the corpse, now turned into a pincushion, trembling all over: "I-I have no quarrel with you, don’t kill me. If you want money, just name your price, just name your price."
The intruders seemed surprised to find Cao Xiu there alongside Zeng Chang.
Yet, after exchanging glances, they clearly had no intention of leaving anyone alive.
"Hehe, Director Zeng, you sure are forgetful!"
One of them ripped off his mask, coldly staring at Zeng Chang.
