Chapter 947: Chapter 940: Give an Inch, Take a Mile

Not only did the driver think so, but Huo Yongming himself also harbored such calculations in his heart.

Unfortunately, all his thoughts were but wishful thinking.

At this moment, the fist was already nearing Liao Momo’s palm.

On Huo Yongming’s face, a trace of cruelty surfaced as his arm shook with intent to channel Dark Energy, aiming to transfer this force from his fist directly into Liao Momo’s palm.

If the body could not withstand the entry of Dark Energy, then the force would shatter one’s arm instantly. Following that, Huo Yongming would continue to propel the Dark Energy, seeking to obliterate his opponent in one fell swoop.

He couldn’t be blamed, for in Huo Yongming’s mind, this old woman was nothing more than a trivial character.

However, he was soon to dispense with such thoughts.

Bang!

The punch and palm collided with a violent impact.

"Die!" A ferocious smile spread across Huo Yongming’s face, and with it, the Dark Energy that he had been nurturing spread out.

"Insignificant as a grain of rice, yet also shining brightly!" At this moment, Liao Momo also slowly spoke out a few words.

Following this, everyone saw Liao Momo’s palm start to clench her fingers, then firmly grasped hold of Huo Yongming’s fist.

Suddenly, Huo Yongming felt as if his fist was clamped by a massive steel hand; all the strength in his arm seemed unable to be summoned at that moment.

"You, you..." Huo Yongming exclaimed in shock, staring in horror at the withered old woman before him, his heart chilling to the extreme.

Damn it, this old woman was actually a Boundary of Virtual Energy expert.

Damn it, you’re at the Boundary of Virtual Energy; why the hell were you pretending?

If I’d known you were this powerful, how could I dare to target you!

At this moment, Huo Yongming felt he had really kicked an iron plate.

Moreover, it seemed not only him; damn it, Second Young Master Huo, did you leave the house without checking the calendar!

Offending an expert in Virtual Energy, even for the Huo Family, would likely be a blood-spittingly frustrating affair!

Of course, a Peak Virtual Energy Expert doesn’t appear out of nowhere; behind every expert in the Boundary of Virtual Energy, there’s bound to be a formidable power.

The Huo Family might not take such force seriously, as they have a Peak Virtual Energy Expert of their own.

But what if the other side also had a Peak Virtual Energy Expert?

Even if there wasn’t a Peak Virtual Energy Expert, as long as the other party had a Late Stage of Virtual Energy, or even just a Middle Stage of Virtual Energy expert, that would be enough.

The Huo Family patriarch couldn’t possibly protect clan members all the time.

His presence could at best serve as a deterrent.

If the Huo Family truly offended power with Virtual Energy experts in the Middle Stage, Late Stage, or even at the Peak, it would undoubtedly be a disaster for the entire Huo Family.

Of course, such thoughts weren’t entirely comprehensive, but Huo Yongming was clear on one thing. After today’s event, for their Second Young Master, an unavoidable catastrophe was impending.

Their trip to Shanghai City, put nicely, was to expand the Huo Family’s business there, but if laid out openly, it was actually because Second Young Master Huo had been exiled by the family!

Although it was still far from the time when the position of the Family Head was to be changed, the methods exercised by the high ranks of the Huo Family indicated that the current Head and most of the high-ranking members had already started paving the way for the eldest son!

To avoid future fratricidal strife between the eldest and the second son, the family’s higher-ups had taken precautions, which was only natural.

What especially chilled Huo Yongming to the bone was that this time, those in the family who previously supported the Second Young Master Huo had all gone silent. From this, it was clear that the higher-ups had definitely made some compromises.

Yet these matters had nothing to do with him, Huo Yongming.

Although he was also one of the high-ranking members, everyone knew that Huo Yongming was staunchly loyal to the Second Young Master and would absolutely not betray him.

So, he had been kept in the dark about everything.

At this moment, countless thoughts raced through Huo Yongming’s mind.

Sometimes, he had also wondered if one day the family would find an excuse to eliminate him along with the Second Young Master!

Of course, since the Second Young Master was after all a legitimate son of the family, the family would strip him of all his rights, but they should not take his life.

But the day’s events would definitely provide the family higher-ups with an opportunity to act.

Those people would certainly not offend a powerful force for his sake, or for the sake of the Second Young Master. Perhaps, abandoning him or assassinating him as an explanation to the other side was the best option.

And Huo Yongming also believed that the eldest son, Huo Honglong, must have been waiting for such an opportunity for a long time.

In fact, Huo Yongming was well aware that if the other party wanted to execute him directly, it would be a mere matter of intent.

It was just a short while ago that he had heard Li Changlin order the old woman before him to incapacitate him.

Since it was incapacitation, there would naturally be no risk to his life.

Huo Yongming couldn’t quite understand Li Changlin. With a Peak Virtual Energy Expert by his side for protection, why would he follow him here?

Could it be that he wanted to make a move against the Second Young Master?

Suddenly, Huo Yongming thought of a possibility and shuddered violently. "People outside, hurry..."

Huo Yongming shouted at the top of his voice, hoping to warn the Huo Family Descendants outside, urging them to quickly inform the Second Young Master to leave the place immediately.

The people before him were not sheep to be slaughtered at will.

Dammit, these people were actually ferocious beasts, tigers even—it was exasperating.

However, how could Liao Momo possibly give him the opportunity? The moment Huo Yongming opened his mouth, Liao Momo knew what he intended, and with a burst of inner energy from her palm, she immediately knocked him unconscious.

Following that, Liao Momo turned around and pounced swiftly at the driver who was nearly scared stiff. With a flick of her finger, she hit the driver’s pressure point, causing him to slouch limply to the ground.

"Liao Momo, please also take care of the people outside. I have great use for these individuals," Li Changlin looked up at the old woman, his face breaking into a smile.

"Hey, Li Changlin, don’t get too greedy! You yourself are at the Late Threshold Stage of cultivation, why do you always have to have Momo do the work!" Bai Ziyu could no longer keep up appearances at this point.

Huo Yongming was a Half-step into Void Energy, and that was unavoidable. If Liao Momo did not act, even she would not have been spared.

But now that Huo Yongming had been dealt with, the rest of those small fries suddenly didn’t seem so important.

Seeing that Li Changlin still wanted to order Liao Momo around, Bai Ziyu was naturally displeased.

However, Li Changlin, who couldn’t be bothered to argue with her, merely shrugged nonchalantly, which infuriated Bai Ziyu, causing her to immediately pout her lips.
