Chapter 78

【PS: Merry Christmas Eve! I've updated, everyone have a Merry Christmas Eve and a Merry Christmas!】

Hu Yiming, upon hearing this, said disbelievingly, "I can fight on par with his father, how could that little brat be even more powerful?"

Tang Long smiled slightly and said, "Since you don't believe me, I'll tell you about two of his victories. Do you know Fang Dahong, the third in command of the Quicksand Mercenary Group? The Eagle King has fought the Quicksand Mercenary Group several times, and once he faced Fang Dahong directly. In the end, Fang Dahong managed to retreat unscathed, which shows his formidable combat strength. When Fang Dahong came to the country, he was ultimately killed by Su Wen, which proves that Su Wen is definitely stronger than Fang Dahong. There's another thing: Cheng Dafeng, the vice president of the Jiangning Martial Arts Association, whose Cheng Family Fist is unparalleled. But he was also defeated by Su Wen, which is the most astonishing part."

"Cheng Dafeng, Cheng Family Fist?" Hu Yiming muttered.

"What's wrong?" Tang Long asked.

"I've seen Cheng Dafeng's son. He showed me a few moves, and the Cheng Family Fist is indeed powerful. If Su Wen can defeat Cheng Dafeng, his combat strength really can't be underestimated. It seems impossible to make him start as a low-ranking soldier," Hu Yiming muttered to himself.

"Hey, Dao Wang, what are you planning to do?" Tang Long felt something was off.

"Don't worry about it, I have my own plans," Hu Yiming hurriedly hung up the phone.

Tang Long listened to the echo in his phone, a bitter smile appearing on his face. He could only help Su Wen so much.

If Su Wen didn't cause trouble, he probably wouldn't have found Hu Yiming. But who would have thought that in just a few days, Su Wen would have killed someone from the Sun family in the capital.

Inside the Jubaizhai.

Su Wen welcomed the fat man, Pan Yu.

The fat man had only one thing on his mind when he arrived.

Money!

Su Wen looked at the fat man and felt that the thirty million yuan was about to go down the drain.

"Su Wen, I heard that Sun Yue and Li Dong are dead?" the fat man suddenly said.

"People have their ups and downs, I don't know how they died," Su Wen looked at the fat man, not knowing what he meant by this.

"So you know," the fat man looked surprised and continued, "I wonder who the kind person was who killed these two guys. Li Dong did a lot of evil in Jiangning. Sun Yue wasn't a good person in the capital either, it's better that they're dead."

"If I knew who did it, I'd have my father arrange a boat to help him escape," the fat man added.

Su Wen smiled but said nothing, finding the fat man quite amusing.

The money at Jubaizhai was managed by Lin Xinyi. When she heard that Su Wen wanted to spend thirty million yuan, she was very unwilling.

The fat man, seeing this, grumbled, "Su Wen, where did you find this housekeeper? It's just thirty million yuan, how can you make money without spending it?"

Lin Xinyi blushed and said nothing.

"Xinyi, give him the money," Su Wen said, "It's just thirty million yuan, I'll bring you back a few times that in a few days."

Lin Xinyi then transferred the money to the fat man.

The fat man left, and Su Wen also left Jubaizhai.

On the street.

Su Wen didn't know where to go, and a man stopped him.

"Mr. Su Wen, our boss invites you to come over," the man was dressed in black and wore a black hat, looking very polite.

"Your boss?" Su Wen shook his head, "I don't know him, I'm not interested."

Su Wen pushed the man aside and tried to leave.

The man stopped Su Wen again, "Our boss is Li Sanxie, also known as Li San Ye. The boss said that no matter what, he must invite Mr. Su Wen over. If Mr. Su Wen doesn't cooperate, we will have to take matters into our own hands."

Su Wen, upon hearing this, smiled coldly, "Li Sanxie is quite polite, I'll go and talk to him."

Hearing Su Wen agree, the man opened the car door.

Su Wen got into the car without hesitation.

Since Li Sanxie had come to invite him openly, as long as he wasn't stupid, he wouldn't dare to do anything to him.

At the Donggang Dock.

Su Wen saw a man.

The man was sitting by the sea, with a table beside him, and two cups were placed on it.

Although it was just a back view, Su Wen could sense an aura of evil and hidden killing intent from the man.

"Boss, the person is here," the man bowed and said.

Li Sanxie waved his hand, and the man quickly stepped aside.

"Li San Ye?" Su Wen was very calm, showing no fear.

Li Sanxie turned and looked at Su Wen, "I thought the person who killed my son would be extraordinary, but it turns out you're just an ordinary person. Why did you kill my son?"

"Why do you assume I killed your son? If you don't have evidence, be careful, I might sue you for defamation," Su Wen smiled coldly. He wouldn't foolishly admit to killing Li Dong, even though Li Sanxie had already determined it was him.

"So you didn't kill him?" Li Sanxie played with a pen in his hand, a smile appearing on his face.

His demeanor didn't seem like that of a man who had just lost his son.

Calm and composed.

No anger on his face.

"Who knows? Maybe your son offended someone, or he was in a bad mood and committed suicide," Su Wen started to make up stories.

Li Sanxie wouldn't believe such nonsense.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave," Su Wen thought for a moment and then said, "I'm very sorry about Li Dong's death, I hope the police catch the murderer soon."

As Su Wen left, the man beside him wanted to kill him.

"Don't be impulsive," Li Sanxie said calmly, "Although I want to drink his blood and eat his flesh, I know that if I do, our hard-earned foundation in Su Province will be destroyed."

"Boss, did Xiao Dong really die because of him?"

"Most likely. This kid has a killing aura that doesn't match his age, he's capable of it. The backup surveillance footage from Shengyang Bar isn't very clear, but I can still recognize him," Li Sanxie's eyes flashed with a cruel look, "Tang Long has covered up all the evidence, the police can't be relied on. We have to take matters into our own hands."

"Boss, I'll find some people to take care of him, I'll make sure the police can't trace it back to us."

"Professional matters should be handled by professionals. We've worked hard to clean up our act, we can't get involved," Li Sanxie thought for a moment and took out a piece of paper, "There's a website on this, go and post a bounty, one million... three million!"

"Boss, is this website a ** site?"

"Yes, I thought I'd never use it again, but...," Li Sanxie muttered.

"Can we trust the hitmen?"

"Hitmen? They're all about money. As long as you pay them, they'll kill anyone," Li Sanxie waved his hand.

"Understood, boss!" the man responded, putting the paper in his pocket.

Li Sanxie looked at the distant sea, his face pale.

If you were closer, you could hear him saying, "I only had one son... and he's dead, just like that!"

In the capital, a thousand miles away.

"Who can tell me why my son is dead?" Sun Jian roared.

"Commander, we just received the news," a man stepped forward, "I called the chief of the Jiangning police, Tang Long, and he said it was a home invasion and murder case, and the murderer has been executed on the spot."

"A home invasion and murder case?" Sun Jian laughed coldly, "Do you think I believe that? I'll send people to Jiangning to investigate. Once I find out who killed my son, I'll make sure they don't live to see another day."

"Commander, Li Dong also died in the same incident. If I'm not mistaken, Li Dong is Li Sanxie's son. If you have any doubts, you might want to call Li Sanxie, he might know something," someone suggested.

Sun Jian thought for a moment and nodded, "I'll call him right away, you all go out."

Sun Jian searched for a while and finally found Li Sanxie's phone number.

The call was connected.

"Is this Li Sanxie?" Sun Jian asked directly, "Tell me, how did Sun Yue die?"

"Are you Sun Yue's father?" Li Sanxie asked.

"Yes," Sun Jian nodded.

"It was a man named Su Wen."

"Wasn't it a home invasion and murder case?"

Li Sanxie thought for a moment and said, "Of course not. Su Wen has deep connections, not only with Tang Long but also with Governor Nie. Tang Long probably covered it up by claiming it was a home invasion and murder case."

"Damn it!" Sun Jian almost shouted, "Li Sanxie, do you have any evidence?"

"No, Tang Long has destroyed most of the evidence, but I can swear on my life that it was Su Wen," Li Sanxie's voice was firm.

Sun Jian was silent for a moment and then said coldly, "I'll bring Su Wen in, and once I confirm it's him, I'll show no mercy!"
