“Ninth… Ninth Young Lord… Are you okay…?”
Ximen Dingjun had already turned into Chen Xiaobei’s loyal hound when Old Meng returned. Considering the fact that Old Meng was assigned as Ximen Dingjun’s guardian since young, he could feel that there was something wrong with Ximen Dingjun.
“I’m perfectly fine! You can leave me be for now. I will summon you if I need you!” said Ximen Dingjun in a hasty manner.
“Yes…”
Though Old Meng suspected that something bad had happened to Ximen Dingjun, he could not spot any unusual behavior from Ximen Dingjun. In the end, he had to take his leave.
Ximen Dingjun then closed the door.
“Master. Please give me your orders!” said Ximen Dingjun in a polite manner.
“My friend has been captured by Tie Family. I want you to call them to extract as much information as possible!”
“Alright! I know what to do now!”
Immediately, Ximen Dingjun took out his cellphone and dialed Tie Hongji’s contact number. He then put the call on speakerphone to allow Chen Xiaobei to listen in on their conversation. Shortly after, Tie Hongji picked up the call.
“Ninth Young Lord! Why did you call me at such a late hour?”
“Man… You and I are so close! Don’t you know what I want? Hehehe…” said Ximen Dingjun with a perverted laughing sound.
“Nine Young Lord, you looking for women?”
“You know me well! What now? Are you going to send the little beauty that you captured to my place?!”
“Ninth Young Lord, how did you know that I have captured Chen Zhufeng’s girl?!”
“Spare the small details! Just ask someone to send her to me now!”
“Ninth Young Lord, please listen to explanation… I have no doubt that you are my good brother… but I’m telling you honestly here that I can’t send the woman to you…”
“You bastard! How dare you forget the things that I have done for you?! In order to protect you, I have damaged my relationship with Chen Xiaobei at the Chamber of Commerce! How can you be so ungrateful?! It seems like you no longer consider me as your brother!”
“No… Ninth Young Lord… That’s not true! You know that I’m willing to share anything that I have with you. This girl is one of overlord’s chess piece! I have been instructed not to hurt her for these three days…”
“You can stop using my father to pressure me! Don’t you now that I’m his favorite son?! I’m going to ask you one more time! Do you still consider me as your brother?!”
“Ninth Young Lord, please forgive me. This girl is part of something big. I’m not allowed to disobey the will of the overlord… Why don’t you wait for a short while…”
“Are you really asking me to wait here? Don’t you know my temper? I will never let it go if I can’t get my hands on the woman that I want!”
“Trust me! You don’t need to wait for long! Chen Zhufeng will definitely invade the Chamber of Commerce tonight! I have deployed a group of elites and three demigods to welcome him! Chen Zhufeng will surely die the moment he steps into my territory! After that, I will clean that girl personally and send her to you!”
“Chen Zhufeng invading the Chamber of Commerce? What if he manages to rescue the girl?!”
“No way! That’s because the girl is not at the Chamber of Commerce! This is a trap specifically designed for him! Even if he managed to survive this assault, he will never be able to rescue the girl!”
Upon hearing that, Chen Xiaobei and Ximen Dingjun were left in shock. The people from Tie Family were more cunning than they expected. Things could really take a worse turn if Chen Xiaobei went to the Chamber of Commerce to rescue Linghu Shuang without coming here first.
Though Chen Xiaobei had Osnur in his Verdant Emperor’s Divine Gourd, both of them were still not powerful enough to defeat three demigods. If the fight broke out, Chen Xiaobei and Osnur would surely be killed sooner or later!
However…
Things were different now as he had Ximen Dingjun under his control.
“Where did you hide the girl?”
“About this…”
“What now?! Don’t you trust me?!”
“No… No… No… Of course I trust you fully! That girl is being kept at my Golden Maple Mansion! It’s located a very secluded area! There’s no way that Chen Zhufeng can find it!”
“Tie Family is really damn smart! You are right about it! Chen Xiaobei can never find and rescue the girl! I’m not going to sleep tonight! I will stay right here to wait for your good news!”
“Hehehe… Ninth Young Lord… Don’t you worry! I won’t keep you waiting for too long! Just wait for the arrival of your goodies!”
“Alright…”
Ximen Dingjun nodded his head and hung up the call.
“Tell me the location of the Golden Maple Mansion! I will head over there right now!” said Chen Xiaobei without any second thoughts.
“East side of the main city. You will see a lake called Golden Maple Lake. Tie Family has a piece of land over there. The mansion is built right beside the lake! It’s going to be really dangerous if you go alone! Should I call Meng Qianshan to go with you?”
“No! I want you to stay here! You have to continue to act like that you are not good terms with me! As for invading the Golden Maple Mansion, me myself is more than enough! Tie Family has deployed all the powerful elites at the Chamber of Commerce’s headquarters. I believe that there are no more powerful individuals who are left there!”
“Yes… I understand…”
After that, Chen Xiaobei changed to his Nightstalker Outfit, jumped onto the Somersault Cloud and headed to the Golden Maple Mansion. Considering that there was only one building right beside the lake, Chen Xiaobei managed to spot it instantly. There was only a room which was lighted up in the entire mansion and there were guards standing at the door. Clearly, Linghu Shuang was being kept inside this room.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Middle phase of Celestial cultivation. Lifespan: 228. Health: 100,000. Combat power: 100,000!]
After observing for a while in the dark, Chen Xiaobei found out that the most powerful guard had only 100,000 combat power. Just as he expected, there was no one powerful who was being deployed here.
Swoosh!
Chen Xiaobei charged at the most powerful guard the moment he jumped down from the Somersault Cloud. He took off his Nightstalker Outfit when he was one meter away from the guard. He then used his right hand to grab the guard’s throat.
