Chapter 126: Chapter 125 "Wealthy Family" Struggle
Lu Zixun, who had been sent to Zeng Haoyang’s car, was still pondering what Long Jiuri had meant by his last words.
"Ding—Surprise value from Xiong Kang +4000."
As he opened the car door, he saw Lu Zixun already lying there.
A look of astonishment appeared on Xiong Kang’s face, "I looked everywhere for you and couldn’t find you, wondering where you had run off to."
With a displeased glance at Xiong Kang, Lu Zixun, who was lying on the seat, asked faintly, "I was almost killed, where the hell did you run off to?"
Hearing the off tone in Lu Zixun’s voice, Xiong Kang got into the car, trying to reach out and soothe Lu Zixun’s mood, only to have Lu Zixun shift his body away from his arm.
This scene couldn’t help but bring a suppressed smile to Xiong Kang’s face; he was quite tsundere.
"With the Superpower Technique that Ninth Brother etched on your Heart Protecting Mirror, who could kill you?"
Exposing Lu Zixun’s words, Xiong Kang explained, "I went to investigate the Ye Family’s basement, but I never expected those people to run away so quickly."
Thinking of the Blood Worms that appeared in the ventilation duct, Lu Zixun looked up, "Have the ventilation ducts been checked?"
Nodding slightly, Xiong Kang sighed, "They have been checked, and traces of movement from the Blood Worms could be detected, but no actual things were found."
During the previous conversation with Long Jiuri, Ye Changming’s watertight words had made Lu Zixun’s gaze grow three parts more profound.
Ye Changming surely wouldn’t have made such a low-level mistake.
Raising a paw to scratch his ear, Lu Zixun said with some gloom, "Ninth Brother wants to send me away, what situation is this?"
"Hm?"
Hearing Lu Zixun suddenly say this, Xiong Kang was also startled.
After scratching his head and pondering for a while, he said, "Is it to Lingchuan City? We are all going there."
Upon hearing this, the corners of Lu Zixun’s mouth twitched.
Listening to Long Jiuri’s serious tone, Lu Zixun had thought he had made some mistake but didn’t expect that Long Jiuri had intentionally said it that way.
Not knowing was one thing, but upon knowing, Lu Zixun felt even more gloomy, wondering what this was all about.
Before Lu Zixun had time to dwell on his feelings, the members of the STO came out carrying a bunch of bodies covered with white cloths.
At that moment, the sky suddenly became overcast.
Raising his body to look at these corpses, Lu Zixun turned his head to look at Xiong Kang, "So many people died this time..."
"To be exact..."
Pausing for a moment, Xiong Kang said with some sorrow, "It was three hundred and seventy-eight people."
Hearing this number, Lu Zixun drew a sharp breath.
One by one, lives that were once vibrant had become cold corpses because of Ye Changming’s scheme.
Lu Zixun fell silent for a moment, his whiskers trembling as he asked, "Knowing full well that it’s Ye Changming’s doing, why can’t we act, and how many more people does Ye Changming have to kill before we can take action?"
Faced with Lu Zixun’s question, Xiong Kang was momentarily at a loss for words.
He shook his head, his face filled with bitterness.
Understanding the hardship of Xiong Kang and others not being able to act, Lu Zixun also closed his mouth.
He had some understanding of the internal divisions within the STO.
Without definitive evidence to directly clamp down on the Ye Family and Ye Changming, it would undoubtedly cause turbulence within the STO.
After all, there were too many high-levels connected to the Ye Family.
And for factions led by Long Jiuri, to target Ye Changming was neither straightforward in name nor in reason.
Without tangible evidence, people like Long Jiuri were practically unable to act.
Shaking his head, he suppressed the heavy feelings in his heart.
Lu Zixun turned his head and his gaze fell on Xiong Kang. "Why the sudden trip to Lingchuan City?"
"It’s quite simple."
Xiong Kang didn’t try to hide anything. He said directly, "Since Ninth Brother is returning to the Crimson Land, naturally we have to go back to our main base."
"Then Chunhua City..."
If Long Jiuri and the others left, wouldn’t it give Ye Changming even more freedom to wreak havoc?
Thinking this, Lu Zixun looked worriedly at Xiong Kang.
"Why worry so much when you’re just a cat?"
Smiling, Xiong Kang reached out and ruffled Lu Zixun’s body. "If Ninth Brother leaves Chunhua City for good, his father will naturally send his second son, Ninth Brother’s younger brother, to oversee things."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zixun couldn’t help but be confused. Long Jiuri had a brother?
But why wait for Long Jiuri to leave before sending his brother over? Wouldn’t it be better for them to oversee things together?
Seeing the confusion in Lu Zixun’s eyes, Xiong Kang said with a profound gaze, "People are biased, and Ninth Brother’s father doesn’t want Ninth Brother to be the heir to the Long Family, so naturally he doesn’t want Ninth Brother to achieve anything particularly impressive."
At this point, Lu Zixun suddenly understood. It was just four words: wealthy family struggle.
He really couldn’t understand what the Long Family was thinking. Although he had never seen Long Jiuri’s younger brother, from every aspect, Lu Zixun felt that Long Jiuri was more suitable.
After gaining a little understanding, Lu Zixun listlessly lay down.
He wasn’t a gossip-hungry cat to begin with. Since he was going to Lingchuan City, then let’s go. It just so happened that he could stay close to protect Lin Siyin.
As Lu Zixun was getting ready to doze off, Xiong Kang poked him.
Lu Zixun turned and pretended to bite Xiong Kang’s hand. Seeing Xiong Kang retract his hand, Lu Zixun’s mouth lifted into a smile, revealing his tiger teeth.
*Ding—Detected annoyance from Xiong Kang +4000.*
Knowing he’d been teased by Lu Zixun, Xiong Kang quickly poked Lu Zixun twice more, which lifted his spirits somewhat.
"There’s something I need to tell you."
Remembering why he’d poked Lu Zixun, Xiong Kang looked at him seriously. "Tan Ye is entering Lingchuan City."
"Oh..."
Lu Zixun replied nonchalantly, then he remembered who Tan Ye was and sat up with a shocked expression, "You said who?"
*Ding—Detected suppressed laughter from Xiong Kang +4000.*
"I thought you unfazed, you little bastard."
He muttered internally.
With an irrepressible smile, Xiong Kang said, "Good luck. If Tan Ye sees you, there’s a good chance you’ll be targeted again."
"???"
Lu Zixun looked at Xiong Kang with a face full of question marks.
He felt it was absurd. Why would he be targeted?
Seeing that Lu Zixun seemed truly clueless, Xiong Kang gazed deeply at him, "Tan Ye has a strong possessive desire for Yue Sichen, yet the one who helped Yue Sichen break through to Queen-level was... oh no, a cat, it was you."
"Sss."
Lu Zixun inhaled sharply, followed by a sheepish smile. "That doesn’t make sense, shouldn’t Tan Ye be grateful to me?"
"Gratitude is one thing, capturing you to turn into a Mutant Beast and bringing you to the Crimson Land to win over Yue Sichen... I think, Tan Ye could still do that."
The threatening Xiong Kang didn’t notice Zeng Haoyang standing behind him, who raised his hand and grabbed Xiong Kang’s ear.
"He’s scaring you, it wouldn’t be that exaggerated."
Comforting Lu Zixun, then waving his hand, "Hurry up and follow along, the Long Family’s people are here."
