“If Li Feng dares to touch a single hair on Wu’er, I will tear him into ten thousand pieces.” A chilling murderous intent gleamed in Li Xiangyang’s eyes.
Although Li Xiangyang had two sons, the one he valued most was Li Wu. Over the years, he had poured countless efforts into cultivating Li Wu to become the heir of the Li family. If anything truly happened to Li Wu, it would not only mean losing a son, but all his hard work over the years would be reduced to nothing.
Therefore, Li Xiangyang would never allow anything to happen to Li Wu.
“Second Master, the young master is now in Li Feng’s hands, and his life or death is uncertain. We must rescue him as soon as possible.” Xu Song replied.
“Rescue?” Li Xiangyang sneered coldly and said, “Xu Song, there is no need for such trouble. Just pass a message to Li Feng. Tell him to release Wu’er, and I refuse to believe that Li Feng would dare to defy me.”
“Second Master, with the young master currently in Li Feng’s hands, the chances of Li Feng releasing him are very slim. Li Feng is not Li Chuanwei. Li Chuanwei might hesitate because of various concerns, but Li Feng is different. According to your guess, Second Master, there may be people behind Li Feng similar to those from the young master’s sect. You should know what kind of people they are. They are capable of anything.” Xu Song said gravely.
Li Xiangyang’s expression changed.
Yes, those people were lawless by nature, and the disciples they trained were equally lawless. They truly would do anything. Now that Li Wu was in Li Feng’s hands, if Li Feng really killed Li Wu, even if Li Feng could never become the family heir afterwards, it would still not be a good outcome for him, Li Xiangyang.
“Xu Song, what do you think we should do?” Li Xiangyang asked in a deep voice.
“Second Master, on one hand, use the family’s pressure against Li Feng. On the other hand, find every possible way to rescue the young master.” Xu Song said gravely.
“There is no problem with the family side. The council of elders will stand with us. Li Chuanwei does not want Li Feng to lose his qualification as family heir, so he will not allow Li Feng to kill Li Wu.” At this point, Li Xiangyang hesitated slightly and said, “But who should we entrust with rescuing Wu’er? Neither you nor I can leave right now.”
“Second Master, the key to rescuing the young master lies with Fourth Master.” Xu Song said gravely.
“Old Four?” Li Xiangyang frowned.
“Yes. Fourth Master is currently in Tianhai City. The council of elders arranged for Fourth Master to go to Tianhai City specifically to obtain Fengyuan Group from Li Feng’s hands. I believe Fourth Master must have enough manpower with him. Having him rescue the young master can prevent Li Feng from acting desperately.” Xu Song said gravely.
“Can Old Four handle it?” Li Xiangyang was somewhat hesitant. Li Zhengxiang was not on the same side as him. Although Li Zhengxiang’s relationship with him was better than with Li Chuanwei, with Li Feng being so monstrous now and Li Wu in Li Feng’s hands, there was no guarantee that Li Zhengxiang would not change his stance.
“Second Master, there is no need to worry. Whether it is for Li Feng’s sake or for the young master’s sake, Fourth Master will absolutely not allow anything to happen to the young master.” Xu Song said gravely.
Li Xiangyang was stunned for a moment, then understood. If Li Zhengxiang acted for Li Wu’s sake, he naturally would not want anything to happen to Li Wu. If Li Zhengxiang acted for Li Feng’s sake, he also would not allow Li Feng to kill Li Wu and lose his qualification as family heir.
“Yes, that is the way. I will call Old Four in a moment.” Li Xiangyang nodded and said.
“Second Master, perhaps Fourth Master has already started taking action by now.” Xu Song smiled, then said with a somewhat sinister tone, “However, after we rescue the young master this time, I think it is time to take the opportunity to eliminate Li Feng.”
A sharp glint flashed in Li Xiangyang’s eyes. “Yes. This Li Feng is so strong, with half-step Innate strength. We cannot allow him to continue developing. Even if we cannot kill him, we must suppress his arrogance this time.”
“Not only that, Second Master, do not forget the task the young master went to Tianhai City for this time.” Xu Song said gravely.
“You mean the Nine Dragon Jade?” Li Xiangyang’s expression changed slightly.
“Yes, exactly the Nine Dragon Jade. This time, so many forces have gone to Tianhai City to fight for the Nine Dragon Jade. There will surely be a storm of blood and carnage. It does not matter if the young master does not obtain the Nine Dragon Jade, but what if Li Feng obtains it? According to the intelligence, Li Feng’s strength is at least half-step Innate. Among the younger generation, few people are his match. If Li Feng obtains the Nine Dragon Jade, the consequences would be unthinkable.” Xu Song nodded and said.
Li Xiangyang’s face turned ashen. Although he was unwilling to admit it, with half-step Innate strength, Li Feng truly had a chance to obtain the Nine Dragon Jade. After all, the participants in this boxing king tournament could only be ancient martial artists below the Innate Realm. Otherwise, when Li Wu went to Tianhai City this time, he would not have brought only one acquired ninth level expert, Li Yong. And half-step Innate could be considered the strongest below the Innate Realm. Even Li Yong by Li Wu’s side was no match.
Li Xiangyang understood even more clearly what it would mean if Li Feng obtained the Nine Dragon Jade. He could tolerate others obtaining the Nine Dragon Jade, but he would absolutely not allow Li Feng to obtain it.
“It seems Li Feng cannot be spared, whether for Wu’er’s sake or for the Nine Dragon Jade.” Li Xiangyang said coldly.
At this point, Li Xiangyang thought of something else. With a worried frown, he asked, “But to kill Li Feng, we probably need someone at the Innate Realm level. Xu Song, do we have anyone we can mobilise on our side?”
“Second Master, if we want to kill Li Feng, we do not need to do it ourselves.” Xu Song shook his head and said, “If we mobilise our own people, Li Chuanwei and Mu Chunfeng will definitely notice. Then it would be difficult to kill Li Feng.”
“Then what do you suggest?” Li Xiangyang asked.
“Second Master, have you forgotten about the Five Ghosts of Laoshan?” Xu Song smiled and said.
“The Five Ghosts of Laoshan?” A gleam flashed in Li Xiangyang’s eyes. He burst into loud laughter. “Yes, yes. To deal with Li Feng, the Five Ghosts of Laoshan are enough. So what if Li Feng is half-step Innate? In front of the Five Ghosts of Laoshan, he is doomed to die. Once Li Feng is dead, Li Chuanwei and Mu Chunfeng will definitely seek revenge from the Five Ghosts of Laoshan. That will be our chance.”
“Exactly.” Xu Song nodded.
“However, this time Wu’er has truly disappointed me. Xu Song, I want to send someone to assist Wu’er. Who do you think we should send?” Li Xiangyang asked gravely.
“Li Siyuan.” Xu Song thought for a moment and said.
“Li Siyuan? Xu Song, is it really necessary to send Li Siyuan?” Li Xiangyang’s expression changed upon hearing Xu Song’s words.
Xu Song was his trusted confidant, but Li Siyuan was his right-hand man. In the Li Corporation, he relied on Li Siyuan for many aspects.
“Second Master, this subordinate believes it is necessary.” Xu Song pointed to the intelligence report that Li Xiangyang had placed on the tea table and said, “Second Master, the report states that Zhong Shuhui is currently in Tianhai City, right by Li Feng’s side. Only by sending Li Siyuan to Tianhai City can we deal with Zhong Shuhui.”
“Zhong Shuhui.” A cold glint flashed in Li Xiangyang’s eyes. He nodded and said, “You did not mention it, and I almost forgot. Zhong Shuhui and Li Siyuan are old rivals. Now that Zhong Shuhui is by Li Feng’s side, sending Li Siyuan to be by Wu’er’s side is perfect. Even if the Five Ghosts of Laoshan fail to kill Li Feng this time, with Li Siyuan by Wu’er’s side, I will feel at ease. However, Mu Chunfeng truly has great courage to send Zhong Shuhui to Li Feng’s side so early. No wonder there has been no news of Zhong Shuhui during this period.”
“Yes. During this time, Zhong Shuhui was not in the Li Corporation. I thought Mu Chunfeng had sent her on some secret mission. I never expected Mu Chunfeng would send Zhong Shuhui to Li Feng’s side.” Xu Song said with a somewhat grave expression.
Others might not know Zhong Shuhui’s capabilities, but both Xu Song and Li Xiangyang knew them clearly. In Mu Chunfeng’s hands, Zhong Shuhui did not merely control intelligence. She also possessed a special ability, and fewer than five people knew about it. Xu Song did not know whether Li Feng was aware of it now, but he understood that if Xu Yang, who was by Li Wu’s side, were to face Zhong Shuhui, he would not be her match at all.
“However, Zhong Shuhui being by Li Feng’s side is also an opportunity for us. While we use the Five Ghosts of Laoshan to eliminate Li Feng this time, if we can also kill Zhong Shuhui, dealing with Mu Chunfeng in the future will become much easier.” A sharp glint flashed in Li Xiangyang’s eyes.
“Second Master is right. At that time, we can simply have Li Siyuan cooperate. Moreover, having Li Siyuan by the young master’s side has another advantage.” Xu Song showed a strange smile on his face.
“Oh? What scheme have you come up with now?” Li Xiangyang knew Xu Song too well. Every time Xu Song showed this expression, he knew Xu Song had some cunning idea.
“Second Master, if Li Siyuan goes to Tianhai City, we can also do this and that…” Xu Song whispered sinisterly into Li Xiangyang’s ear.
“Yes, yes, this is a good plan. Xu Song, go and arrange it immediately.” Li Xiangyang laughed heartily and said.
While Li Xiangyang and the others were discussing Li Feng, Mu Chunfeng also received intelligence about Li Feng. This time, the intelligence was delivered by Fu Xiyan, and it recorded everything in detail, including the events from the previous night.
“I never expected that Feng’er already has the strength to kill peak acquired ninth level ancient martial artists. Does that not mean Feng’er’s current strength is possibly half-step Innate?” A trace of shock flashed in Mu Chunfeng’s beautiful eyes. Even she found it hard to believe this fact. As Li Feng’s mother, no one understood Li Feng better than she did. If Li Feng’s change in personality was due to some experience he had gone through, then as for this strength, she could say with one hundred percent certainty that before this, Li Feng had never cultivated at all. He had no strength whatsoever and was simply an ordinary person.
So how did Li Feng suddenly possess such terrifying strength now? What exactly had happened to Li Feng during this year in Tianhai City?
“Huang Shuyi, what do you think about this matter?” Mu Chunfeng raised her head and asked Huang Shuyi.
