Chapter 67: Chapter 0067 Dark Flower
Chu Feng listened to the busy tone on the other end of the phone and felt somewhat frustrated. However, he understood that if Huang Lan didn’t want to tell him, she wouldn’t say anything even if he called again.
"Brother Chu, it’s bad! Really bad!" Just as Chu Feng had hung up the phone, Fatty Tang rushed in frantically.
Chu Feng looked at Fatty Tang, who was only wearing a pair of flowered boxer shorts, and chided with a laugh, "If you got any fatter, your flowered boxer shorts would really be in trouble."
Fatty Tang said, "I’m not joking with you, Brother Chu; it’s genuinely bad news."
Chu Feng knitted his brows and asked, "What happened?"
Fatty Tang said, "Old Ma just got news that Mountain Wolf has taken on a task from the Bai Family—they want to kill the two of us."
"Mountain Wolf again. What is Mountain Wolf exactly?" Chu Feng happened to ask the question he had on his mind.
Fatty Tang was at first stunned, but then he remembered that it was Chu Feng’s first time in Yunxi, so he wouldn’t know about Mountain Wolf.
Fatty Tang explained, "Mountain Wolf is the largest assassin organization around here in Yunxi and ranks in the top five in the whole of Southeast Asia. They’ve never failed a mission so far. The Bai Family really went to great lengths finding someone from Mountain Wolf to kill us."
After hearing Fatty Tang’s words, Chu Feng realized that Mountain Wolf was indeed an assassin organization.
Chu Feng furrowed his brow and said, "Is such an organization even allowed to exist within Huaxia’s borders?"
Fatty Tang replied, "Of course, Mountain Wolf wouldn’t dare set up their headquarters in Huaxia. It’s said that their base is in a mountainous area in Myanmar, but no one knows the exact location."
Fatty Tang, seeing Chu Feng still concerned about these matters at such a time, urged impatiently, "Come on, Brother Chu, they’re practically pointing barrels at our heads. Can’t you be a bit more anxious?"
Chu Feng said, "What’s there to be nervous about? They haven’t pointed any barrels at our heads yet, have they? Besides, would your nervousness stop them from coming to kill you?"
Fatty Tang, upon hearing this, felt that Chu Feng made sense. Nevertheless, he couldn’t just stop worrying; after all, this was a matter of life and death.
Just as Fatty Tang was anxiously pacing around, Ma Hong walked in with a gloomy expression.
"Brother Chu, I’ve gotten you into trouble again," Ma Hong said with a sense of guilt.
Chu Feng replied with a smile, "Brother Ma, since you consider me a brother, let’s not talk about who’s troubling whom. It makes us seem distant."
Upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, Ma Hong felt a warmth in his heart.
Fatty Tang, growing restless, asked, "Old Ma, how’s the situation being handled?"
Ma Hong’s face darkened as he mentioned the matter, "I’ve already used all my connections, but I still can’t get in touch with someone who calls the shots in Mountain Wolf to cancel the hit ordered by the Bai Family."
Fatty Tang’s face fell upon hearing this, "Then what do we do?"
Ma Hong said, "I’ll increase security around us in the coming days and you two should not leave the Ma Family’s premises for the time being. Additionally, I will arrange to have both of you sent back to East River as soon as possible. Once you are back on the mainland, Mountain Wolf won’t be able to reach you. You’ll both be mostly safe."
Fatty Tang’s face turned grim, "That’s the only thing we can do."
After speaking, Fatty Tang didn’t forget to curse through clenched teeth, "Damn it, that old man wants me dead. Just wait until I get back to East River, he’s not going to have an easy time."
Chu Feng, who had remained silent until now, said, "Brother Ma, I think it’s better to solve this issue directly. You said that once we’re back in East River we’d be mostly safe but not completely safe. And if we have to put the people around us under threat all the time because of us, that’s certainly not what we want to see."
Ma Hong, hearing Chu Feng’s words, knew he was right. But Ma Hong had truly used all his connections and still couldn’t contact anyone from Mountain Wolf.
Seeing Ma Hong’s face filled with guilt, Chu Feng quickly said, "Brother Ma, I don’t mean to blame you; we just need to find a solution... "
Ma Hong replied, "I know what you mean, Brother Chu."
Chu Feng continued, "Brother Ma, let’s think about how we can get rid of this ’Dark Flower’ trouble."
After a pause, Chu Feng asked, "Brother Ma, besides getting Mountain Wolf to call it off themselves, is there any other way to remove the ’Dark Flower’ placed by the Bai Family?"
Ma Hong pondered for a moment, then replied, "There are two other methods. The first is if the target person dies. The second is if the person who placed the ’Dark Flower’ dies. Otherwise, as long as the ’Dark Flower’ exists, the assassination will continue indefinitely."
Chu Feng’s eyes grew cold as he said, "Then let the person who placed the ’Dark Flower’ die."
Ma Hong said, "Brother Chu, I’ve considered that approach myself, but Bai Kai has all but disappeared, leaving no trace to be found. If I could find Bai Kai, I would rather die with him in an explosion."
After a pause, Ma Hong continued with difficulty, "Moreover, if Bai Kai were to die, the Bai Family would definitely go crazier. They might cast aside all considerations and place an even larger Dark Flower."
Chu Feng stared at Ma Hong and said evenly, "If Bai Kai can’t be found, then make Bai Kai and the Bai Family disappear together. If Mountain Wolf knows that the Bai Family is gone, then the Dark Flower should be automatically withdrawn, right?"
"Hisss!"
Hearing Chu Feng’s words, Ma Hong couldn’t help but gasp.
Ma Hong had thought about Bai Kai’s death, but he had never considered completely eradicating the entire Bai Family.
Such thoughts weren’t because of Chu Feng’s cruelty. When others bully you to the point of threatening your life, you have no choice but to be ruthless. Otherwise, if Chu Feng weren’t ruthless, it might not just be him who dies. It could even bring harm to his Sister-in-Law and everyone around him.
Fatty Tang’s face went through several changes after hearing Chu Feng’s plan and said, "Brother Chu, although I know you’re skilled, the Bai Family has deep roots and strong support here in Yunxi. Even if you can fight, they have guns, and they outnumber us by far."
Chu Feng replied, "So should we just wait for Mountain Wolf to come and kill us?"
Fatty Tang, upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, fell silent.
Ma Hong pondered for a while before saying, "Brother Chu, I can’t decide this matter alone. I’ll go and ask the old man for guidance. But no matter whether the old man agrees or not, I, Ma Hong, am definitely with you."
Chu Feng looked at Ma Hong with gratitude and said, "Thank you."
With a dispirited face, Fatty Tang remarked, "It seems I’m destined to die young."
Chu Feng slapped Fatty Tang on the head and said, "Stop talking nonsense."
Ma Hong went to consult with the elder of his family, while Chu Feng called Zhang Shisan to brief him on the situation.
After hearing Chu Feng on the phone, Zhang Shisan said, "Wait for my call."
"Understood, Master!" Chu Feng replied and hung up.
Half an hour later, Chu Feng hadn’t received a call from Zhang Shisan. Instead, he got a call from Huang Lan.
"You sure are ruthless, little guy. Someone puts a Dark Flower on you to have you killed, and you plan to uproot them entirely," Huang Lan said with a teasing tone.
Chu Feng replied, "I was forced to do it. If the Bai Family hadn’t troubled me, I wouldn’t have gone this far."
Huang Lan said, "Having courage isn’t enough, youngster. Do you know how powerful the Bai Family is in Yunxi?"
Chu Feng responded, "I don’t know, but that’s not a reason for me to sit by and do nothing."
"Right! Very good! I find myself liking you more and more," said Huang Lan.
Chu Feng, breaking out in a cold sweat, replied, "Big sister, now’s not the time for confessions, is it?"
Hearing Chu Feng call her big sister, Huang Lan exploded, "Who are you calling big sister? Have you ever seen an eighteen-year-old big sister? Do you not want to live anymore..."
Chu Feng, unable to bear Huang Lan’s endless chatter, quickly begged for mercy, "Is ’little sister’ okay then?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Lan continued to roar, "Who are you calling ’little sister’? Do you think I’m one of those fallen young girls?"
Chu Feng was genuinely close to tears, "Then what should I call you?"
Huang Lan thought for a moment and said, "Call me Captain."
"Alright, Captain. Is there something you want to tell me?" asked Chu Feng.
Over the phone, there was a sound of sucking, and it wasn’t clear what Huang Lan was doing, but the sound in Chu Feng’s ears was particularly enticing.
After about a dozen seconds, Huang Lan finally said, "You got me so angry I forgot what I was saying. Now I remember, let’s continue. Do you know how big the Bai Family’s influence is in Yunxi?"
