714: Chapter 703: Want to Slap Him?
Having heard that Huayang and Teng Dong seemed to be leaving the Shangguan Family, Shangguan Tanglong was stunned in place before he could even exchange pleasantries.
Huayang and Teng Dong were leaving, but were they going back or to some other place?
Shangguan Tanglong dared not ask, his heart full of confusion.
Huayang, noticing Shangguan Tanglong’s befuddlement, coldly laughed and warned, “Is it necessary for you to inquire about what we’re going to do?”
The tone was quite rude, yet Shangguan Tanglong could only forcefully suppress his anger.
Soon after, Huayang and Teng Dong left the Shangguan Family and headed directly to Zhonghai.
After spending the entire afternoon implanting Gu Insects in some severely wounded individuals of the Shangguan Family, Huayang and Teng Dong arrived in Zhonghai at night.
Their purpose in coming to Zhonghai was for Ning Fan, and at this moment, their target was in a bar, sitting next to Xiao Jianming.
“Mr.
Ning, you really treat guests so rarely.”
Xiao Jianming sat next to Ning Fan and smiled.
“You make me sound so stingy…”
Ning Fan rolled his eyes at Xiao Jianming and scanned the surroundings.
Seeing him so sensitive, Xiao Jianming frowned and also surveyed the surroundings.
However, after several looks around, neither Ning Fan nor Xiao Jianming spotted any suspicious individuals.
“Be more vigilant about Yunteng Family and Mingwang Pavilion recently.”
“Then why did you call me out at this time?”
Xiao Jianming retorted, as he had recently been responsible for Huo Qiuran’s safety.
“I have a friend here; you must have felt it recently.”
To be safe, Ning Fan had still entrusted Chen Fengnan with looking after Huo Qiuran as well.
Between the threats from Mingwang Pavilion and Yunteng Family, Ning Fan had to be especially careful regarding the two women closest to him.
These few days were perhaps the most diligent Ning Fan had been at Xu Corporation; his attendance was practically alarming.
“Today I specifically let you take a break, won’t you thank me for it?”
Ning Fan spoke nonchalantly; after having known Xiao Jianming for so long, he had never truly conversed with him.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jianming shook his head and gave a bitter smile, unsure of how to respond to Ning Fan at that moment.
Compared to drinking here to lighten his mood, after hearing Ning Fan’s reminder, he was more eager to go back and protect Huo Qiuran.
However, since Ning Fan was so kind, he decided not to refuse the courtesy.
“The Yunteng Family is famous for their Evil Gu, I don’t know if you’ve heard of them.”
Although wanting to chat with Xiao Jianming, Ning Fan couldn’t find a topic and ended up talking about the Yunteng Family.
The threat of Yunteng Family’s Evil Gu could not be ignored.
He specifically came to warn, hoping that Xiao Jianming wouldn’t unwittingly fall victim.
Gu Insects, those beings kill without a trace, deploying exceedingly sinister means.
Some powerful Gu Masters might not even give a chance for detection before planting their Gu Insects.
“Yunteng Family has sent two people this time, appearing to be a master and a servant, but their identities are unknown…”
Over at the Huo Family, they had managed to obtain photographs of Huayang and Teng Dong, and from Huo Zhanyun, Ning Fan had also received this information.
Pulling out two high-definition photos from the lining and placing them on the bar counter, Ning Fan pushed them towards Xiao Jianming.
“Is it just these two?”
Xiao Jianming’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam.
So, these were the people from the Yunteng Family?
Just looking at the photograph, Xiao Jianming felt annoyed by Teng Huayang’s arrogant pose in the picture.
It seemed purposely staged.
“However, we shouldn’t underestimate these two.
If they are so arrogant, they must have something to rely on, especially this one’s strength!”
Ning Fan pointed at Teng Dong’s photograph, a trace of wariness flashing in his eyes.
He had received intelligence from the Huo Family that this Teng Dong was very powerful, and it seemed that only Shangguan Tanglong could match him.
Although he was unsure whether this information was true or not, Ning Fan took it as truth.
This Teng Dong, who looked about their age, indeed needed extra caution.
“Moreover, it seems they have already arrived in Zhonghai.”
When Ning Fan said this, a sharp gleam flashed in his eyes.
Upon hearing that these two had already reached Zhonghai, Xiao Jianming also tensed up.
“Don’t rush, there’s no need to worry about Qiuran for now.
I want you guys to help me find these two.”
Ning Fan said with a light laugh, again making a startling statement.
“You want to find them?”
Xiao Jianming blurted out unconsciously, then suddenly realized.
No wonder Ning Fan had called him over.
It turned out that this was the main reason.
In Zhonghai, Huo Qiuran had operated for several years and had her own forces.
As Huo Qiuran’s confidant, he naturally was in charge of these forces.
“Instead of always being passive, why not take the initiative?”
Xiao Jianming laughed as well.
So that was it.
Indeed, Ning Fan was not someone who liked to remain passive.
Zhonghai was their territory after all, not Jiangcheng.
Now that the people from the Yunteng Family had entered Zhonghai, as the hosts, how could they not give a proper welcome?
Moreover, there was a crucial point.
Lord of the Underworld of Zhonghai, with most of the underworld in Ning Fan’s control, coupled with Chen Fengnan and Huo Qiuran’s forces, finding two people in the vast crowd was not a difficult task.
The people from the Yunteng Family were like a ticking time bomb.
Now that they were in Zhonghai, it proved that the Yunteng Family definitely intended to target Ning Fan.
Currently, aside from the Yunteng Family, the Mingwang Pavilion was also a ticking time bomb.
Ning Fan did not want two bombs by his side.
If he did not resolve one first, Ning Fan would find it hard to be at ease.
“Mr.
Ning seems to have thought of everything already.”
Xiao Jianming looked at Ning Fan with admiration.
He finally understood why Huo Qiuran had fallen for Ning Fan.
This man had an indescribable charm.
“Now Zhonghai is full of my informants; you just need to stay close to me for the next few days.”
Ning Fan patted Xiao Jianming’s shoulder, and then pointed to a man not far away.
“Let me introduce you, my subordinate, Di Baitian.”
Following the direction Ning Fan pointed, Xiao Jianming saw the man with a cold and serious demeanor.
Just by the feel of his aura, Di Baitian seemed even stronger than him.
When had Ning Fan acquired such a formidable subordinate?
Xiao Jianming realized that he knew very little about Ning Fan.
And because of Di Baitian’s power, he was also unsure of the extent to which Ning Fan had reached.
In the bar, apart from Di Baitian, the Shadow Team had two other members, and the solitary ghost was hiding somewhere unknown.
If they didn’t want to be discovered, they could keep hiding indefinitely.
“By the way, I wanted to ask you, how about slapping this person?”
Ning Fan suddenly pointed again at the photograph of Teng Huayang, his smile markedly mocking.
