NOVEL NEXT Chapter 136: Mr. Lu's Master
Members of the security team kept pouring into the bar.
Several armed police officers held firearms, ready in case someone in the bar suddenly attacked.
Clearly, these security personnel had come prepared.
"Damn bad luck!"
Tan Xu, seeing the security team members streaming in, cursed and stood up to head to another passageway.
Given the identity and status of Tan Xu and Tan Long, even if the arriving security team members noticed them, they would let Tan Xu and Tan Long go.
However, these individuals, who originally belonged to minor forces and small families, would no longer be able to participate in such activities going forward.
The people in the bar were taken away one by one by members of the Yun City security team. Liu Na came up to Wang Ye's side, glanced at Su Wanqing next to him, and said to Wang Ye, "I didn't expect you to be so efficient, solving the problem on the day you arrived."
"You know, our security team members have been delayed here for several days, but these small forces are too cunning. Even when we track them, we can't gather much information."
In her words, Liu Na was very pleased with Wang Ye.
Su Wanqing looked at Wang Ye in surprise; it was he who had revealed the location.
From Liu Na's statement, it was clear that Wang Ye had been in contact with her from the beginning.
Thinking of this, Wang Ye's identity became even more complex in Su Wanqing's mind.
Even Yun City's security team captain, Liu Na, could be utilized by Wang Ye.
"That was too easy," Wang Ye answered casually.
Liu Na rolled her eyes at Wang Ye. During their conversation, she also noticed the look from Su Wanqing and realized that Su Wanqing must have misunderstood something.
Liu Na, as the captain of the Yun City security team, had a clear understanding of the relationship between Wang Ye and Su Wanqing, as well as the conflicts with the He Family and the Yang Family.
Upon confirming what Su Wanqing had misunderstood, Liu Na not only did not dispel the misunderstanding in Su Wanqing's mind but deepened it further:
"We've helped you take care of these minor forces and small families, so you won't need to worry too much when handling things later. Those big families and major forces, although they hold higher status, are also bigger targets."
"As for those major forces and big families, we are unable to help you deal with them—you'll have to handle them on your own," Liu Na spoke.
Liu Na's words, rather than being directed at Wang Ye, seemed to be said for Su Wanqing to hear.
Sure enough.
Su Wanqing's face showed an expression as if things were as she had anticipated.
"No big problem, those big families and major forces, in my view, there's nothing to worry about. Taking back what belongs to the Wang family from them is a piece of cake," Wang Ye said with great confidence.
"Giggle."
Liu Na laughed heartily, although Wang Ye's statement sounded very arrogant to others, knowing the true cause of Yang Junsheng's death and the situation near the highway, Liu Na felt that Wang Ye really could achieve this.
So she patted Wang Ye on the shoulder:
"Go for it."
...
In Xi County, a remote motel.
An elderly man, looking at Mr. Lu lying on the bed, his eyes surging with anger.
This elderly man was none other than Mr. Lu's master, as Mr. Lu had always mentioned.
Lü Xing.
After returning to Yun City yesterday, Lü Xing first sought out He Lei and the others. Upon learning that Mr. Lu was in Xi County from them, he immediately went to Xi County to find He Lei.
Upon arriving in Xi County, he discovered that his disciple was being pursued by his own Life-bound Gu.
The moment he saw his disciple's Life-bound Gu chasing his disciple, Lü Xing thought he had seen wrong. However, after dealing with his disciple's Life-bound Gu, Mr. Lu suffered a backlash and fainted.
Lü Xing then realized that his disciple was indeed being chased by his own Life-bound Gu.
Someone daring to treat his disciple like this infuriated Lü Xing. He wished he could skin and debone the person responsible.
Just then,
Mr. Lu opened his eyes.
The moment he opened his eyes, Mr. Lu seemed to return to the moment when he was being chased by his Life-bound Gu, and fear dominated his mind as he regained consciousness.
Mr. Lu suddenly sat up from lying down and shouted, "Don't chase me! Don't chase me! Don't chase me!"
Following that,
Mr. Lu then saw Lü Xing.
Upon seeing his master in front of him, the fear in Mr. Lu's heart was somewhat dispelled, but he was still frightened. He threw himself onto his master and sobbed, "Master..."
Once Mr. Lu's emotions had stabilized, Lü Xing asked him, "What happened to you today, being chased by your own Life-bound Gu?"
A Life-bound Gu raised by a Gu Master would absolutely not harm its owner without the influence of others.
Therefore, even with a moment's thought, Lü Xing could tell that someone had certainly sabotaged this.
"It was Wang Ye."
Then, Mr. Lu told Lü Xing about the matters concerning Wang Ye.
Upon hearing what Wang Ye had said, Lü Xing spoke, "The method that could make your Life-bound Gu backlash against you, just by this tactic alone, it's clear that Wang Ye's methods are much higher than you could imagine."
"Generally speaking, someone capable of such tactics can only be other Gu Masters."
"The best to understand Gu Masters are naturally Gu Masters themselves, hence our Gu Clan has always said, 'Only a Gu Master can deal with a Gu Master.'"
"However, even though he is not a Gu Master, he is very knowledgeable about how to deal with Gu Masters, this person..."
Lü Xing's expression became unusually serious as he spoke, "is no ordinary individual."
Upon hearing his master say this, Mr. Lu's face instantly exhibited a look of despair, "So, we have no way to deal with Wang Ye?"
If, from the beginning, Mr. Lu wanted to deal with Wang Ye due to the He Family,
Now, Mr. Lu had his own reasons to handle Wang Ye.
Wang Ye had turned his Life-bound Gu against him. Had it not been for his master arriving just in time, he himself would have been killed by his own Life-bound Gu by now.
Even though he had preserved his life, his Life-bound Gu had been dealt with, and he had also suffered severe backlash.
In that situation, had Lü Xing not dealt with Mr. Lu's Life-bound Gu, Mr. Lu would have faced only death as the other option.
"Of course, that is not the case."
Lü Xing's eyes narrowed fiercely, "His tactics are indeed good, but I am not without means to deal with him."
