Chapter 163: The Man Behind The Scenes

“How could such a man become the minister of Fengtian Division?” Li Xianyu sighed.

In the incident that Hu Xinyue said, Wu Sanjin ended up completely responsible for his fate Perhaps in his heart, love was more important than anything else, but it was wrong to desire the wife of his brother openly.

You could sneak around. What era were they in? Why didn’t he know how to do things in a flexible manner? Another silly man.

“It is said that… Just hearsay, that the Wu family had intended to kill him, but your big boss of Baoze happened to pass by and rescued him. Perhaps because of his talent, he was actually made minister of the Fengtian Division,” Hu Xinyue said. “So far no one understands why he values a person who is a bully and morally corrupt. In fact, Wu Sanjin did not deserve this kind treatment and failed him. Well, at least until tonight, that was what I thought so.”

The demoness and perverted Li Xianyu looked at each other and smiled, but there was a tacit understanding.

Li Xianyu has figured it out and understood everything. So did this smart demoness.

They remained silent through the journey. At 04:00 A.M., Li Xianyu finally returned to Fengtian. Instead of going back to his room, he knocked directly on Wu Sanjin’s door. After being expelled from the family, the useless minister was all alone and did not buy a property outside. He has lived in the company for so many years.

When one knew the truth, one would look at these details and realize that everything was different at once. Although the family was beautiful, sometimes it was a kind of tie. People who had nothing to lose were the most terrifying, because they could burn themselves at any time to ignite the world.

The door did not open. Li Xianyu looked at the extinguished door number and realization dawned on him. This meant that there was no one in the room. If the room card was inserted in the power supply slot, the door number would be bright.

“Where is Minister Wu?” Li Xianyu found the night shift staff, surprised to find that the number of people on duty tonight was particularly small, less than one third of the usual.

The staff on duty said blankly, “Didn’t you receive the message about the mission?”

Li Xianyu froze.

“The headquarters sent a message that the Wu family secretly cultivated puppets, seriously threatening the stability of society. This danger must be put an end to immediately. Half an hour ago, Minister Wu had just completed the mobilization of combat power. They went to encircle and suppress the Wu family with 80% of the company’s combat strength,” the staff explained.

“It’s strange. The Wu family cultivated and trained some puppets, but the headquarters sent an order to annihilate them.”

“Yes, that’s the seven surnames. Why such a sudden encirclement and suppression? This has a great impact.”

“Minister Wu is like a different person. I have never seen him like this…” Li Xianyu did not continue listening as his expression turned grave. He returned to the staff lounge, and knocked on the door of the long-legged beauty’s room.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady was dressed in a white silk dress, and looked sleepy and delicate. “What’s the matter?”

“Get dressed first. I’ll get the others, everyone, meet in my room.” Li Xianyu had no time to explain and went on knocking on the doors of other companions.

As he expected, the members who came from these headquarters received no notice of the mission at all.

A moment later, the crowd came to Li Xianyu’s room one after another. He went straight to the point, “Wu Sanjin brought his men to encircle and suppress the Wu family, saying it was an order from headquarters.”

The crowd was shocked. “Encircling and suppressing the Wu family?”

Only Thunderbolt Battle Lady had a strange expression.

Kato Eagle murmured, “Impossible, if it is such a mission, headquarters will certainly inform us.”

Lady Killer nodded. “Moreover, the task assigned by the headquarters was to hold a meeting with the Wu family and confiscate the contraband items. It was necessary to use force, but it did not say that it was necessary to encircle and suppress the Wu family.”

The difference was big. The former is at best a small-scale armed conflict, while the latter treated the Wu family like a cult to annihilate.

“In addition, there are other hidden matters about the Wu family and the Demons Alliance. Let’s talk about it on this road. For now, I think we should stop Wu Sanjin,” Li Xianyu said. “They have just set out for half an hour, we should be able to stop them in time.”

….

At the Wu family headquarters, located in the suburbs of the villa area.

The place had become a perilous battlefield. The exquisite villas collapsed into ruins, the spacious community roads had many cracks and collapsed, while there was a ferocious struggle between the Wu family and the Demons Alliance. All kinds of strange powers raged.

After some foreign species went into a frenzy, they transformed into their original form. Pythons of dozens of meters crashed against the villas, hissing and roaring into the dark night sky.

Bloodthirsty mice, wandering snakes, aggressive weasels… These foreign species, which could not transform into human form, were also involved in the battle. If someone could shoot the scene at a high altitude, they could be placed into Hollywood blockbusters as promotional material with a little processing.

But ordinary people were far away from the home base of the Wu family and the nearby surveillance cameras by the road were shut down by Baoze. The battle under the moon would shake the demon descendants community, but had nothing to do with the world of ordinary people.

Members of the Wu family used their superpower and were fighting the foreign species effortlessly. However, the Demons Alliance won in numbers, and there were more than ten times of them. The Wu family gradually began to falter.

It was a premeditated attack. The Wu family underestimated the ambition of the Demons Alliance. The massacre of the Wu family members in various places was just a cover for dispersing the fighting power of the headquarters. As soon as people were sent to support the major branches, the main force of the Demons Alliance turned its head and attacked them straight.

Many of the Wu family members did not have time to respond, and the enemy had charged to their homes. Therefore, Wu family members who ran out to fight in pajamas can be seen everywhere, and some even wore boxers only.

The Demons Alliance was strong in numbers and soon charged from the foot of the mountain to the hillside and went straight to the top of the mountain. As the Wu family withdrew from the war, the two sides continued to suffer casualties in the course of advancing on the battlefield.

As they gradually reached the top of the mountain, there was a sudden turn in events.

Leading the troops were powerful experts from the Liu family and Hu families. Without warning, heads fell to the ground, heads flew, and corpses flew out dozens of meters before staggering. They transformed into their original forms when they were dead.

Soon after, the powerful Liu family combatant who had transformed into a massive python was chopped into two, by a cold knife that lit up the night.

A white-haired old man, with a zhanmadao blade in his hand, stood proudly by the corpse of the python and looked coldly at the foreign species below.

At the same time, experts from all over the battlefield sensed this and looked in this direction one after another.

The old man was 1.9 meters tall. His hair and beard was white as snow, and there were no traces of black. When he was young, he was also a powerful and muscular man. But no matter how strong life was, it could not win against time. Although he was tall, it is difficult to hide his elderly state and muscle atrophy, and his skin was flabby.

The old ancestor of the Wu family, a legendary master of nearly a hundred years old, the strongest man in Northeast China. Standing like this was the greatest deterrence.

The Demons Alliance retreated quickly, as they increased the distance. Liu Shan roared, as the weak foreign species continued to retreat. Meanwhile, experts as powerful as the Baoze senior staff rushed in this direction.

Although the Demons Alliance does not have such powerful combatants, they had the upper hand in terms of numbers. Many ants could bite an elephant to death. There had never been a master who could face the world as his enemy, not even a Gokudo master.

…

The light explosion-proof car, made up of Baoze’s Operation team, was blocked by two sports cars as it approached the Wu Family villa area. There were a black Lamborghini and a red Ferrari, in which the black Lamborghini was Wu Sanjin’s car. Li Xianyu kicked open his suite and pulled out the car keys. Lady Killer borrowed the red Ferrari from the female minister of the finance department.

Lady Killer merely called her “little lady”, threw a wink and the smitten female minister gave him her beloved car. Well, it was always said that middle-aged people had desires.

“Who’s that? Get out of the way!”

The employees of the company in the explosion-proof car were immediately on alert.

Li Xianyu opened the door of the Lamborghini, blocked the Xenon lamp with his hand, and roared, “Wu Sanjin, get the fuck out!”

Thud thud thud…

The sound of military boots stepping on the road rang, as a figure leapt out of the explosion-proof car. His figure blocked a blinding Xenon light column. There was a bright silver butterfly knife in his hand.

“What are you doing here, instead of sleeping in the middle of the night?” Wu Sanjin raised his hand and turned off the Xenon lamp. He looked at Li Xianyu. At this moment, his expression was no longer despondent, his eyes were no longer glazed, but sharp and bright. He seemed to have transformed into another person entirely.

“What exactly do you want to do?” Li Xianyu asked solemnly.

“Follow orders from the headquarters and destroy the Wu family,” Wu Sanjin said nonchalantly.

“Bullshit, you are still trying to lie?” Li Xianyu took a deep breath. “I have always felt that it was the Wu family behind the scenes, but now I know it’s you.”

Wu Sanjin smirked and said, “Your reaction isn’t slow.”

“You killed Liu Tong. Only a Wu family member can use the speed superpower to sneak into the Liu villa without a sound. Regarding an uninvited minister who is known to be useless, Liu Tong, must be surprised and not as vigilant, which provides you with a good condition for an assassination.”

“Go on!”

“As for why I’m involved, it’s because you think my existence is a threat that will affect your plan, so by doing this, you want me to step back.”

Wu Sanjin smiled but did not speak.

“After you killed Liu Tong, you deliberately left copper nails in his body. This evidence points directly to the Wu family. Although you can pull out the nail and reveal Liu Tong’s original form, you won’t be able to pin the murder on me to explain. But if I were the Wu family, I would certainly not let the bear spirit kill Hu Zong and hide outside blatantly. Normal people know how to destroy or hide the murder weapon.”

“Is the Wu family so stupid? In fact, it’s really easy for us to catch it, because it’s the truth you gave us. In this way, the Wu family’s plot to incite Demons Alliance would be certain.”

“I felt that something was amiss at first, but I couldn’t explain why exactly. After killing the bear spirit, I thought there was still a force behind who was inciting the fire, but I didn’t lock onto you as a suspect at the time,” Li Xianyu said.

“But just a few hours ago, I went to the construction site. The female corpse was the key to the matter. After the body was exhumed, she disappeared and the police brought the body. If so, she will never fall into the hands of the Demons Alliance and the Wu family. The officials are under our power. She was actually hidden by you. In this way, the copper nails on Liu Tong, as well as the copper nails on the bear spirit, also have a reasonable source.”

“The Demons Alliance could not find the bear spirit, thinking that the Wu family hid the bear spirit. However, they forgot that there was another force that could hide the bear spirit so that the entire Demons Alliance could not find it. That’s our Fengtian Division.”

“You have hidden very well. As long as you hide the female corpse, even if this matter is full of holes, no one will suspect you. Who cares about an insignificant female corpse? But the Wu family will. Regarding such an important thing as copper nails, they will certainly look into it, and naturally they will find out where it came from. Following this clue, once they find out the origin of the woman’s body, they will certainly link it to you.”

“Old Wu, your pretense was very good. It wasn’t easy to pose as a useless minister all these years, isn’t it? You wanted the Wu family to overlook you, being acting as an imbecile.” Li Xianyu stared at him. “Understanding the female corpse is tantamount to understanding your past. You want vengeance.”

“Smart.” Wu Sanjin applauded. “Your abilities are not really good, but you are smart. Things are almost done. Shift the car away. If we don’t provide support, the Demons Alliance will not be able to hold on for long.”

Li Xianyu scoffed and said, “What if I don’t let you?”

In the darkness, a silver light flashed. Wu Sanjin’s figure flashed with the silver light, and the next moment, there was a small cut on everyone’s forehead, except on Great-Grandma.

Everyone’s heart turned cold. Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s eyes widened. She too had speed as her superpower, but she couldn’t tell when the other had struck.

Wu Sanjin bowed his head and said to Great-Grandma, “Please have mercy.”

Great-Grandma looked indifferent, but what she said surprised Li Xianyu, “Approved!”

Li Xianyu looked at his ancestor in dismay.

“Wu Sanjin, do you know what the consequences of your actions will bring about? How much trouble will it cause Baoze? Regarding the past matters, you were in the wrong first. There will be casualties in war. So you have the heart to let your colleagues in Fengtian Division sacrifice themselves in vain for your own personal gain, because of your selfishness and your desire for revenge?” The tendons twitched on Li Xianyu’s forehead and the man who was rarely angry, was finally furious.

Instead of answering him, Wu Sanjin looked at Thunderbolt Battle Lady and asked, “How about you?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady froze, as her face turned pale. Redness suddenly appeared on her face, as her delicate body trembled slightly, as if trying to contain some kind of surging emotions.
