Chapter 269: Chapter 0269 Xiahou Wudao
"Just..." At this point, Mr. Ouyang’s face showed difficulty, appearing hesitant as if he was about to say something but then stopping himself.
"Don’t worry about the Ghost Poison Sect, I’ll take care of it cleanly," Chu Ge naturally knew what he was worried about and said it outright without waiting for Mr. Ouyang to speak.
"That’s good." Mr. Ouyang naturally trusted Chu Ge’s abilities, especially after witnessing that duel akin to gods and demons. In Mr. Ouyang’s heart, as long as it can be resolved with Martial Force, Mr. Chu should have no problems.
"Take this pot of Spiritual Liquid with you," Chu Ge said, pushing the Jade Pot towards the three people in front of him.
The three people didn’t refuse. After all, the verbal agreement had been reached, and at their stature, even a verbal agreement was essentially set in stone.
"Well then, we won’t disturb Mr. Chu any longer." The three exchanged glances, and ultimately it was Mr. Ouyang who apologized and then all three left at the same time.
After all, even with Chu Ge taking on the Ghost Poison Sect, messing with the Duan Family was definitely not a minor matter, and required thorough consideration.
Just as Chu Ge was planning how to deal with the Ghost Poison Sect disciples lurking in Shanghai, he suddenly received an unexpected phone call.
"Xiahou Wudao?"
Yes, the person calling him at this moment was indeed Xiahou Wudao.
"What, are you busy?" Unsure if it was his naturally friendly nature or simply a desire to get closer to Chu Ge, Xiahou Wudao’s tone sounded very casual, as if he were greeting an old friend.
However, Chu Ge didn’t find it off-putting. As for Xiahou Wudao, he did indeed hold some good impressions of him, even though Xiahou had once sent someone to assassinate him.
"Is there a matter?"
"It’s not really a matter. A friend’s bar just opened, and he asked me to show support. Why don’t you spare some time tonight and come have some fun?" Xiahou Wudao’s voice seemed to carry a hint of laughter.
"I’m not free." Chu Ge thought Xiahou was contacting him for something important, only to find out it was merely an invitation to have fun, and he prepared to hang up right away. There was no need to be polite with this person.
However, Xiahou Wudao on the phone seemed to have anticipated his intention and quickly said, "Hey, hey, don’t hang up. No jokes now, I’m talking serious. Are you planning to deal with the Duan Family?"
"You were able to find that out?" This time, Chu Ge was truly surprised. The three people had left his estate less than two hours ago, and yet the news was already uncovered?
"Nonsense." Even Xiahou Longhu wouldn’t dare talk to Chu Ge like this, but Xiahou Wudao spoke without any restraints, "Do I need to find that out? After I told you the location of the Jade Pendant, I guessed that the Duan Family was going to be in trouble. The old man just came back from your place and called a family meeting in a rush, asking to gather all possible information about the Duan Family, and the results are quite obvious now."
"Mm, that’s right," Chu Ge didn’t deny it.
"Heh, quite a feat, to actually get the old man to take on the Duan Family, but I won’t ask for specifics. Since it’s against the Duan Family, you should come even more so tonight."
"How is going to a bar related to this?" Chu Ge shook his head and chuckled.
"On the surface, it’s not, but it has become related since Mr. Duan Congxing died." Xiahou Wudao’s voice held a trace of mystery.
"How so?"
"Do you know who owns this bar?"
Chu Ge’s heart stirred: "Could it be..."
"Duan Congxing’s grandson, the son of the current Duan Family Patriarch, Duan Shaojie!"
......
At 9 o’clock in the evening, just as promised, Xiahou Wudao’s car stopped in front of the estate.
Chu Ge looked at the black Audi A6 in front of him and smiled, "I really didn’t expect your ride to be this."
"It’s quite normal. Everyone thinks that with my flamboyant nature, I should be driving a sports car or something like a Land Rover, so my standard ride is a Lamborghini Reventón."
Xiahou Wudao walked up to Chu Ge, eyeing his casual attire, "Are you planning to wear that?"
"What else?" Chu Ge didn’t look at him, but instead at the black Audi, "What about this?"
"This Audi, from the moment I bought it, was only used by me. Now, you’re the second person to get in this car. How does that feel, excited?" Xiahou Wudao said with a smile, opening the car door.
Chu Ge didn’t stand on ceremony and got right in, merely responding indifferently, "No homo, please keep your distance."
Baile Bar, that’s the name of the bar Duan Shaojie owned. After all, being one of the Four Great Families, even the death of Mr. Duan had dealt a big blow to the Duan Family, the family’s deep foundations meant Baile Bar was located in Shanghai’s prime district.
Such a location couldn’t be secured by money alone.
In some small towns, by nine o’clock it might have begun to grow quiet, but for a metropolis with international flair like Shanghai, nine o’clock was just the beginning of the nightlife!
Standing at the entrance, one could vaguely hear the explosive music from inside.
There were no security guards at the bar’s entrance, nor was there anyone blind enough to stir up trouble on Duan Family’s turf.
To tell the truth, until now Chu Ge had never been to a bar before. Stepping inside, it was as though he was entering another world.
The booming heavy metal music echoed in his ears, while dancing crowds filled his vision, along with drunken revelers indulging with abandon. Those who were prim and proper during the day, be they white-collar workers or professionals, were all showing another side of themselves at this moment.
Chu Ge’s brows were slightly furrowed the entire time; he didn’t like places like this, preferring quieter environments instead.
Xiahou Wudao had been observing Chu Ge’s expression since they entered and seeing his face, he patted Chu Ge’s shoulder, "Hehe, it’s okay, you’ll get used to it after a few times."
"If it weren’t for the Duan Family, I wouldn’t come to such a place at all." Chu Ge glanced at him and moved on by himself.
If he simply wanted to destroy the Duan Family, he didn’t need to do this; letting the Three Major Families handle it would suffice. However, Chu Ge’s real goal was the Jade Pendant in the Duan Family Ancestral Hall.
Moreover, the Cultivation Technique within the Jade Pendant was mostly about physical strength; Chu Ge wasn’t skilled in Stealth. The Duan Family would certainly have Ghost Poison Sect members present; if he were discovered while sneaking in, and the Duan Family used worldly forces to pressure him, things would become complicated.
After all, he did not yet possess the power to contend against an entire nation!
