Dragon King Palace: Urban Affluent Son-in-Law

"How did it come to this?"

Huangfu Qingzhi couldn't sit still over there: "Brother Yan, don't rush. Tell me the detailed process."

Yan Huxiong, in a panic, had to relay everything Heng Bo had risked his life to inform him about to Huangfu Qingzhi.

After listening, Huangfu Qingzhi was even more astonished!

The development of this situation greatly exceeded his expectations, and it was his turn to miscalculate!

"Brother Yan, hold your horses. I will come over and discuss this with you in person."

After saying this, Huangfu Qingzhi ended the call.

However, he didn't act immediately. His fingers tapped on the table as he fell into deep thought.

"Second Uncle, what happened? Did the Yan Family fail?" Huangfu Shiming, standing next to Huangfu Qingzhi, asked nervously.

"Zhuge Yuheng would rather die than betray Jiang Feng, even when his own son was at stake. All the personnel sent by the Yan Family were annihilated," Huangfu Qingzhi said flatly.

"What should we do then? What kind of charm did Jiang Feng cast on that Zhuge? So cold-blooded!" Huangfu Shiming exclaimed indignantly.

They calculated everything, except they misjudged Zhuge Yuheng's role.

And this was a plan that couldn't afford any leaks; the failing side would be at a serious disadvantage.

"Let's go, accompany me to Yanchi Villa," Huangfu Qingzhi sighed and stood up.

"Second Uncle, at this point, shouldn't we protect ourselves first?" Huangfu Shiming said apprehensively, "Now, the only ones left to lead the Huangfu Family are you and me; we can't afford to lose!"

Huangfu Qingzhi glanced at Huangfu Shiming, understanding what he meant.

The two of them, unlike Yan Huxiong, held important positions in the government. As long as they stayed within the official compounds and didn't venture out, even Jiang Feng dare not come here to kill at will, despite his audacity!

But doing so would betray Yan Huxiong, effectively pushing the Yan Family to the forefront as cannon fodder while they lived safely.

"Shiming, you're deluding yourself!"

Huangfu Qingzhi shook his head, "Firstly, Tao Heng from the Yan Family was captured by Jiang Feng, and he must have extracted the full story from him. I was involved in this matter too; we can't hide from him."

"Secondly, we can't stay here forever; once we step out, Jiang Feng will seize the opportunity."

"Most crucially, if we detach ourselves from this affair, the Huangfu Family's reputation is utterly doomed. Betraying our relatives at such a critical moment will ruin the last shred of our reputation in the Provincial City."

"But..." Huangfu Shiming's face was full of bitterness. He was really afraid of dying, especially as this matter might really fall upon him!

Huangfu Qingzhi didn't give him a chance to say more, sighing as he left the room.

...

Twenty minutes later.

Huangfu Qingzhi drove his car, bringing Huangfu Shiming to Yanchi Villa.

There weren't many occasions when Huangfu Qingzhi drove personally, but it was already a critical time.

The two of them entered the main residence of the Yan Family and saw Yan Huxiong pacing back and forth inside.

"Father-in-law, why did it take you so long to come?"

Upon seeing the two of them arrive, Yan Huxiong's expression finally softened, and he came forward to greet them.

Previously, he was also afraid that Huangfu Qingzhi might betray him, causing him to speak harshly.

Seeing Huangfu Qingzhi arrive as promised, he finally felt at ease.

"Brother Yan, don't get flustered. We haven't reached a desperate situation yet. I've already called Mo Li, and he will be here soon."

Huangfu Qingzhi comforted Yan Huxiong.

"Does Elder Mo have a way to deal with Jiang Feng? Will his Gu technique be effective?" Yan Huxiong asked.

"Not sure. He hasn't fought anyone at the Grandmaster Level, but he promised me it shouldn't be a big problem," Huangfu Qingzhi said, "To be cautious, he's bringing a friend along, saying the two of them together have a solid chance of killing Jiang Feng!"

"Really?" Upon hearing this, Yan Huxiong was overjoyed, "That's great! I knew Elder Mo would have a way, and I've already ordered all the death soldiers nurtured by the Yan Family over the years to be assembled. When that Jiang Feng comes tomorrow, my men may not kill him, but they will at least exhaust him by ninety percent!"

Like the Huangfu Family, the Yan Family, having dominated the Provincial City for many years, also has its own defense forces.

Yan Huxiong had been secretly training death soldiers from an early stage, and has now successfully cultivated a large number of them.

Moreover, he hired two instructors specifically to manage and train these death soldiers.

Recently, he had ordered the instructors to swiftly bring the soldiers to Yanchi Villa and additionally instructed the two instructors to bring along the Yan Family's "Ultimate Weapon"!

"Hehe, I knew it. As long as our two families join forces, no matter how arrogant Jiang Feng is, he will only meet a dead end!"

Huangfu Qingzhi sneered, "His biggest mistake was giving us an entire night to prepare!"

...

At this moment, in the southeast of the Provincial City, a little-known underground secret base.

At the bottom of the base, there is a passage leading to the depths of the earth.

And at the end of the underground, there is a most mysterious dark room.

Currently, a middle-aged man wearing a golden mask, carrying a wooden bucket, walked along this passageway to the underground.

It was dark as night in here, yet there was a strong stench.

A dungeon made of copper walls and iron guards was in the innermost corner of the dark room.

Upon hearing footsteps from outside, a gigantic figure sitting inside the dungeon suddenly stood up!

This giant's hands and feet were covered with iron chains as thick as a bowl. Naked, white as a sheet, it stood at a towering height of two meters thirty, thicker by two whole circles than Jingang.

"Why did you take so long? I'm starving to death here!"

With a series of heavy footsteps, the giant approached the front of the dungeon, expressing discontent to the man in the golden mask.

"Mo Mountain, tonight I've brought you some good wine and meat as a reward,"

The golden mask man placed the wooden bucket he brought to the doorway of the dungeon. After opening the lid, there was a steaming roast suckling pig, roast chicken, fish, liquor, and a whole half-bucket of rice.

"Hehe, instructor, you're still the best to me." Mo Mountain immediately lit up with delight, reaching out with a big hand to grab the big bucket inside.

"This isn't a free meal!" the golden mask man said coldly. "The Family Head just called; you're to be released to take care of some matters! After you finish eating, follow me. Tomorrow, it's all up to you. Kill that thorn in the Family Head's side, and I'll chop his meat up as dumpling filling for you."

"Hehe, dumpling filling, I love dumpling filling!" Mo Mountain tore a greasy pig leg and stuffed it into his mouth, laughing heartily, "Rest assured, I won't disappoint the Family Head!"

"That's good!"

The golden mask man nodded and then opened the door to the dungeon.
