Chapter 200: Ji Moyuan's Revenge

~7 min read 1,394 words

"Chen Jing, what happened again?" Lingyun looked at Chen Jing, who had been wearing a bitter face since finishing her phone call, and asked with some confusion.

"That's right, something did happen. A group of R Country Ninjas stole a weapon of ill omen from Huaxia University," Chen Jing said, frowning.

"A weapon of ill omen? What kind of weapon?" Lingyun raised an eyebrow.

"The Muramasa Demon Blade, a weapon of ill omen that once stirred up countless bloody storms across the land of Huaxia!" Chen Jing said.

"The Muramasa Demon Blade?" Lingyun couldn't help but mutter to himself. He had clearly strengthened the Seal Array previously; he hadn't expected it to be snatched away regardless. However, under the pressure of the dual Arrays, the blade should have already developed cracks, so even if it fell into someone else's hands, its power would be greatly diminished.

"The Muramasa Demon Blade is lost, but what does that have to do with you?" Lingyun asked.

Chen Jing frowned and said, "Of course it has to do with me. I am a special envoy for the Dragon Group, after all; I have to take charge of these matters."

"By the way, there is one other thing: the Su Family has made a move against the Ji Family!" Chen Jing suddenly leaned close to Lingyun and whispered.

"The Su Family made a move against the Ji Family?" Lingyun was stunned upon hearing this. "The Su Family's strength shouldn't be a match for the Ji Family, right?"

"Who said you have to use force to make a move against them!" Chen Jing chuckled. "The Su Family and the Ji Family have quite a bit of overlap in the commercial sector. Aunt Su just needs to engage in fair business competition! Besides, Aunt Su is a renowned powerhouse in the business world; those guys in the Ji Family couldn't catch up to her even if they rode a horse!"

"It seems the Ji Family's good days are coming to an end," Lingyun said with a smile.

He had heard of Su Yun; she was a famous talented woman in her youth, and after entering the business circle, she used the capital she had saved during her studies to establish her own company. After years of hard work, that small company had grown into a giant in the Beijing business circle. Her experiences over these years could be called the legendary history of a powerful woman.

"Indeed, with Aunt Su making a move, I'm afraid all of the Ji Family's industries that overlap with the Su Family will take a hit. However, the Ji Family is definitely not the type to suffer a loss without retaliating. Since they can't make a move against the Su Family right now, they might shift their anger onto you," Chen Jing warned.

"Shift it onto me? They'll have to see if they have the ability to do so," Lingyun waved his hand dismissively, then took a small awl from his pocket and handed it to Chen Jing. "Give this to Wanyue. Have her recite the incantation on the awl in front of Su Ye, and it will be able to break the Array inside his body."

"This awl, what is it?" Chen Jing took the awl from Lingyun's hand and asked curiously.

"An Array-Breaking Awl!" Lingyun said indifferently.

"An Array-Breaking Awl? This thing is an Array-Breaking Awl?" Chen Jing looked at the unremarkable awl in her hand in astonishment. "It doesn't look any different from an ordinary awl!"

"Who said an Array-Breaking Awl has to be shiny and golden so that people know it's a treasure at a glance?" Lingyun couldn't help but roll his eyes. "If it were really made to look like that, I'm certain you wouldn't be able to deliver it to the Su Family."

"Don't worry, I will definitely deliver this Array-Breaking Awl safely to the Su Family!" Chen Jing put the Array-Breaking Awl into her pocket.

Nearly half a month had passed since Lingyun had Chen Jing deliver the Array-Breaking Awl to the Su Family. During this time, Lingyun hadn't encountered any trouble; it seemed the Ji Family hadn't taken his rescue of Su Ye to heart at all.

In the Ji Family Villa, Ji Moyuan frowned as he looked at the documents in front of him. As the young master of the Ji Family and the future Clan Master, he had begun to come into contact with information regarding the operation of family enterprises over a year ago. Relying on his exceptional talent, the several enterprises under his management were thriving and yielding good profits. However, several of the enterprises under his control were now facing challenges from powerful rivals, and their profits were declining.

"Luo, what is going on? What kind of background do those enterprises challenging us have, to dare to snatch meat from the Ji Family's mouth?" Ji Moyuan slammed the documents in his hand onto the table and said coldly.

"Young Master, according to reports from my subordinates, the enterprises competing with ours are all industries of the Su Family!" Luo replied. "Furthermore, they are using legitimate business competition methods, and we are helpless!"

"The Su Family? I remember that the Su Family and us have always kept to ourselves; why are they suddenly making a move against our industries now?" Ji Moyuan said with some confusion.

"Young Master, don't forget about the matter of the Su Family's fourth child back then!" Luo reminded him.

"The Su Family's fourth child?" At the mention of this, a dark glint flashed in Ji Moyuan's eyes. "Wasn't that matter handled extremely secretly back then? How is it being linked to it now?"

"According to the information I've gathered during this time, I'm afraid this matter has been exposed," Luo replied.

"Exposed? Why was it exposed? Who caused this to be exposed?" Ji Moyuan's expression turned ugly instantly.

One must know that Su Wanyue was one of the wives his father had pre-arranged for him. The exposure of their Ji Family colluding with an Innate Expert to ambush Su Ye meant that the possibility of a marriage alliance between the Su Family and the Ji Family had become almost impossible!

"The reason for the exposure is because a person named Lingyun broke the Array that trapped Su Ye's soul. Later, it was that person who sent Su Ye's soul to the Su Family, which allowed the people of the Su Family to learn of this matter!" Luo said.

"Lingyun? Which Lingyun?" Ji Moyuan asked.

"This Lingyun is someone you should be very familiar with, Young Master. He is the Lingyun who is by Luo Yexi's side," Luo took a file out from his bosom.

"It's him?" A cold light flashed in Ji Moyuan's eyes. "Luo, tell me, what level of strength should I send to make this person disappear from this world?"

"Based on the information we currently possess, this person's strength is at least Mysterious Tier, but it is unlikely to exceed Earth Tier. If we send an Earth Tier guard, I believe we can make him disappear from this world forever," Luo pondered for a moment before speaking.

"Earth Tier, is it? Have one of the Shadow Guards make a move. Within three days at most, I want him to evaporate from this world!" Ji Moyuan waved his hand, as if killing a person was no different to him than crushing an ant.

"Yes!" Luo nodded, then his figure flashed and disappeared from the room.

The Shadow Guard were guards dispatched by Ji Moyuan's father to protect Ji Moyuan, and they were also the most powerful force in his hands. Every Shadow Guard was an expert carefully selected by the Ji Family, with a strength of at least Earth Tier. It was said that the most powerful Shadow Guards had the strength to fight even against an Innate Expert. However, the strongest Shadow Guard in Ji Moyuan's hands was only Heaven Tier.

After Luo's order reached the Shadow Guard, the captain of the Shadow Guard directly dispatched an Earth Realm Mid-Stage Shadow Guard to go and finish off Lingyun. As for whether he would fail, that was something he hadn't considered at all; this team of Shadow Guards had been under Ji Moyuan for several years, and there had never been a case of a failed mission.
