C8 The Bai Family's Doubt
The gloomy atmosphere of Chu family had been swept away for the past few days. The news about Chu Huaxiong's sober reply had begun to spread. Of course, the reason why the news was spread was because of Chu Huaxiong's instruction. Now, there was a traitor in the family. The reason why the news was released was to stabilize the panic of Chu family. On the other hand, it was also to lure the snake out of its hole.
At this moment, in a secret chamber in Bai family, five figures were gathered together. All of them had solemn expressions on their faces.
"Old Poison Ghost, what do you think about this matter? Last time, we didn't get rid of that Chu Huaxiong. You swore that your poison could easily get rid of him, but now... He has recovered in such a short period of time. Is this your guarantee? "
A middle-aged man in a red robe stood up angrily. He looked at the hunchbacked figure in a green robe and said. The man was completely covered in a robe, making it impossible to see his true face. However, judging from the killing intent emitted from his body, it could be seen that he was also feeling very uncomfortable.
"Enough of the fire. The matter has already happened. There's no point talking about it now. Family Head, this matter still needs you to make a decision. How should we deal with the Chu family next? Given Chu Huaxiong's character... He is definitely suspecting us. I'm afraid that he is still sending people to investigate our Bai family. That Chu Huaxiong isn't simple. This matter isn't easy to deal with." A well-dressed young man said.
Although he was young, having a seat here meant that he was also a Divine Ability Stage.
At this moment, the four people on the scene looked at the man sitting on the seat of honor. The man was wearing a set of white jade and golden silk. There was also a white cloth tied on top of his head, and his entire face was red. He looked like a junior who had just taken the exam. No one would have thought that this man was the patriarch of Bai family, Bai Yuhua. Facing the gazes of the crowd, he remained unmoved, as if he didn't care about this at all.
"Although Chu Huaxiong is a formidable man, the Chu family is nothing to worry about. They won't be able to escape from the control of the Bai family. The Chu family is no match for us in terms of strength, but my son, Shao Feng, has brought me some interesting news today."
"He met a servant in the Chu family because of a quarrel. After that, he sent someone to deal with the servant of the Chu family, but none of them knew where they had gone after entering the Heavenly Treasures Store. I sent someone to investigate. I heard that they found their corpses in the mass graves ten miles away from the city. " Bai Yuhua said. He smiled and said.
"What!? Didn't the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce always stand in a neutral position? Why did they suddenly change their attitude? Could it be that the Chu family has colluded with the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce? " The man who spoke earlier couldn't help but exclaim.
"Ye Leyong, you are making a big fuss out of nothing. Isn't it just a chamber of commerce? Our Bai family has a big business, why would we be afraid of a small trading company like theirs?"
At this moment, the last person who had been silent sneered disdainfully. Ye Leyong frowned and looked at the youngest figure who looked like a child. Although he had a child's body, his face was that of a middle-aged man. This was because the latter was a dwarf.
"Ling Guangyao, you didn't interfere in the family affairs of the Bai family, so you naturally don't know how powerful the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce is. In the Hundred Mile City, the most powerful force is probably the Heavenly Treasures Store. The Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce is a huge force that connects north and south of the Great River. "
"Even if it's just a small branch of the Heavenly Treasures Store, it's not something we can do easily. If the Chu family really gets the support of the Heavenly Treasures Store, it will definitely be a bad thing." Ye Leyong frowned and said.
"It's just that a few of the thugs have been killed. It doesn't mean anything. Perhaps those idiots have offended the people of Heavenly Treasures Store by doing this. That's why they want to kill us." Lie Huo snorted coldly.
Bai Yuhua remained calm in the face of the argument. It was obvious that the latter was the one who brought up this topic first. But now, the latter didn't get involved. This was the time when he, as the head of the family, wanted his men to show off their talents. This showed the magnanimity of the head of the family.
"This might be a coincidence, but there might be some hidden reasons behind it. In addition, during this period of time, there seemed to be a young man in the limelight in Chu family. His name was Chu Tian. It was said that he was highly regarded by an expert. His cultivation base had advanced at an extremely fast speed, and this Chu Tian was the target of Yu Feng's attack." Bai Yuhua said.
"Does Patriarch mean that this Chu Tian has gotten the help of an expert from the Heavenly Treasures Store?" Ye Leyong asked with a frown on his face.
"Of course, this is just my guess, but we have to investigate this matter. I want you all to investigate this Chu Tian's background for me, but you still don't know the situation. We absolutely can't do anything to him. If he really has a connection with the Jade Treasure Shop... If we harm him, the Jade Treasure Shop will surely be infuriated. At that time, it won't do any good to the Bai family. "
"Le Yong, you've always been a calm man. I'll leave this matter to you. If you find out that he is related to the Heavenly Treasures Store, you should know what to do." Bai Yuhua said.
"Try your best to rope him in. After all, he was just a servant of Chu family. He wouldn't have a good impression of the Chu family. As long as there was a little bit of temptation, it would only be a matter of time. Patriarch, don't worry. Leave this matter to me. " Ye Leyong said.
Bai Yuhua nodded with a smile. He was also very relieved to leave this matter to the latter. The other three men looked at Ye Leyong with disgust, thinking that the latter was too fond of fighting for credit.
