Lu Ming asked curiously, "Dong Gang, are you sure you don't need to tell me the subsequent plan?"
Dong Gang smiled, "I'm not telling you to protect you. The more you know, the less safe you'll be. You just need to remember that once the receiver's light is on, it means it has started working and is receiving information. At that time, you just need to safely deliver it to the City Lord, and everything will be accomplished."
Even though they were already 'comrades,' Dong Gang was still afraid Lu Ming would get hurt and wanted to protect him to the maximum extent possible. His character was clearly excellent.
Lu Ming looked at the receiver in his hand and nodded very seriously, "Okay, I promise you."
"Thank you."
The two exchanged a glance, and then Dong Gang reactivated the house's soundproofing and let Lu Ming leave.
After this incident, Lu Ming knew that he wasn't the only one in this city trying to deal with the White Lotus Cult. There were many people with similar personalities who were doing the same thing.
After leaving.
Lu Ming didn't rush back to Jiang Lan's side. Instead, he first went to Tian Shen Island and returned to his base camp.
Inside the villa on Tian Shen Island, the housekeeper Chen Xinjuan, along with the long-unseen Xiu Luo and Long Wang, were waiting. Upon seeing Lu Ming, the joy in everyone's eyes was evident.
Especially Xiu Luo.
He excitedly stepped forward and clasped Lu Ming's hand, saying with a slight tremor in his voice, "Warlord, you're back! I've missed you so much."
Lu Ming's scalp tingled. This was too mushy.
He waved his hand.
"Let's not do any of this mushy stuff. I have something to hand over to you. Please keep it safe for me."
Then, Lu Ming took out the receiver and placed it in Xiu Luo's hand.
He briefly explained the general situation of the receiver to Xiu Luo. After listening, Xiu Luo also admired Dong Gang greatly.
"He's a good comrade," Xiu Luo commented.
Lu Ming said, "Xiu Luo, you'll be in charge of the receiver. Long Wang, mobilize the Dark Department and be responsible for Dong Gang's life safety. We cannot let a good comrade sacrifice in vain."
Long Wang smiled, "Warlord, you are always so considerate."
Xiu Luo asked curiously, "After the receiver receives the information, do we still need to deliver it to the City Lord?"
The City Lord?
Heh, no need.
The receiver was now in the hands of the person who needed it most. The Dragon Warlord had far greater influence than the City Lord.
Lu Ming suddenly exclaimed, "As soon as the receiver gets any news, launch an operation to annihilate the White Lotus Cult!"
At that time, let the White Lotus Cult see the might of the Dragon Warlord!
This world, this city, was not up for a corrupt organization that laundered money to dictate terms.
As it was late, Lu Ming stayed the night on Tian Shen Island.
The next morning, Lu Ming was sound asleep when he was woken by a series of phone rings. He fumbled for his phone and saw it was Jiang Lan calling.
Lu Ming knew her personality. If it wasn't something important, she wouldn't call so urgently. This early in the morning, Jiang Lan must have encountered a problem.
Lu Ming took a deep breath, roused himself, answered the phone, and asked, "Hello, Jiang Lan, what happened?"
Strangely, Jiang Lan, who had always been very respectful of Lu Ming, even somewhat admiring, spoke with an extremely harsh tone, as if she had just eaten gunpowder.
Jiang Lan said coldly, "Heh, you've caused enough trouble yourself, and now you're asking me what happened?"
Huh?
Lu Ming felt wronged.
What good deeds had he done? He didn't seem to have done anything morally reprehensible. And thinking back carefully, he hadn't had much contact with Jiang Lan recently.
How could he have offended her?
Lu Ming said, "Have I misunderstood something? Just say it directly, don't make me guess."
"Heh," Jiang Lan said unhappily, "Lu Ming, you're such a philanderer, scattering your affection everywhere. You don't even fancy ordinary women anymore, and you've started getting involved with a saintess of the White Lotus Cult? Lu Ming, you're really something."
What is this?
Lu Ming was completely bewildered.
From her tone, Jiang Lan seemed to be jealous, and jealous of a saintess from the White Lotus Cult.
Could it be that Jiang Lan found out about his meeting with the Sun Saintess Dong Gang last night?
That didn't make sense.
Dong Gang was a man!
Are you jealous of a man? That's crazy.
Lu Ming was utterly confused. He asked sheepishly, "No, what could there be between me and Dong Gang? Don't overthink it."
"Dong Gang? Who said it was Dong Gang?"
"Ah? It wasn't Dong Gang? Then who were you just talking about as a saintess?"
"Still pretending with me? Lu Ming, I'm talking about the Star Saintess Peng Ying! You're really something. You've only been back in Jinling for a few days, and you've already got Peng Ying, a woman like that, wrapped around your finger. Your skills are impressive, Casanova Lu Ming."
No... Peng Ying?
What's going on?
Lu Ming was completely baffled. Even the Dragon Warlord had his mysteries.
Lu Ming seemed to have no connection with Peng Ying, other than the time she sent assassins after him and he scared them off. Could it be... Peng Ying was playing some trick?
He didn't understand.
In fact, Lu Ming didn't know that Peng Ying had been watching his every move for the past two days. His combat prowess and his musical talent were all clearly observed by Peng Ying.
Especially Lu Ming's righteous demeanor, which made Peng Ying's eyes sparkle.
He hadn't deliberately tried to seduce Peng Ying, but Peng Ying's heart had been quietly stolen by him. It had to be said that Lu Ming exuded masculinity.
Then.
Jiang Lan said, "Hurry back. I'm here with sister, waiting for you at Rong Shang. Oh, and Peng Ying is also waiting for you. You must make things clear today."
Beep, beep, beep...
Jiang Lan hung up the phone directly.
Lu Ming stared at the phone screen, stunned for a long time, unable to comprehend what had happened.
What was all this about?
No, he had to go back quickly. It seemed like a serious matter. Jiang Lan and Jiang Mengxin were both there, and so was Peng Ying.
The critical point was that Jiang Lan called, not Jiang Mengxin!
What did that mean?
It meant that Jiang Mengxin was so angry that she didn't even want to hear Lu Ming's voice. Jiang Mengxin was probably furious right now.
"Who can tell me what's going on?"
Lu Ming, without even having time to wash his face, drove back to Rong Shang as quickly as possible.
All the way, he was thinking: I don't seem to have any relationship with Peng Ying, do I? Is she deliberately trying to ruin my family relationships?
Although Lu Ming's relationship with the Jiang family was not very good to begin with.
Soon, he returned to Rong Shang.
As soon as he arrived, he awkwardly discovered that two groups of people were standing at the entrance of Rong Shang. One group was the Jiang family security guards, led by the Jiang sisters, and the other group was the White Lotus Cult disciples, led by Peng Ying.
The two sides were in a standoff, the atmosphere tense.
And their confrontation was solely because of one person: Lu Ming!
