CHAPTER 1035 IT'S A CAPITAL OFFENSE
As Jiang Ning's expression darkened, Mo Chenglin felt as though his heart was sinking to the bottom of an abyss at the same time.
"How dare the Mo family do such a thing!" shouted Jiang Ning angrily. Mo Chenglin then swiftly fell to the ground with a thud.
Both father and son knelt in front of Jiang Ning in terror! Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
"It probably isn't the first time the Mo family is hiding a wild mine for themselves, right?" yelled Jiang Ning immediately. He seemed completely different from earlier.
He was fuming mad and seemed like the grim reaper. Just this aura alone was enough to make both Mo Chenglin and Mo Bei panic-stricken.
"Mr Jiang, I..."
"Do you dare to deny this?" asked Jiang Ning as he narrowed his eyes and laughed coldly. "Do you know why those powerful northern families disappeared overnight?" When Mo Chenglin heard his words, his face turned ashen. Of course, he knew the reason.
Most influential families would have committed a dirty act or two in the process of rising to power.
The Mo family had secretly kept wild mines for themselves and were connected to foreign powers. They wanted to make arrangements overseas and take a different path. But now...
"Do you know what crime you have committed?" shouted Jiang Ning again.
"It's a capital offense!"
His voice sounded like stifled thunder and it exploded violently next to Mo Chenglin and his son's ears.
Blood coursed through their bodies as their faces became paler. They couldn't stop shivering as they knelt.
A capital offense...Of course, they knew it was punishable by death!
But they couldn't reap success without taking a few risks. So, if the Mo family wanted to be a powerful family and forever have a foothold in the northwestern region, they had to resort to underhanded means.
How would they know that one day they would run into someone like Jiang Ning?
"Mr Jiang, please spare us!" yelled Mo Chenglin hurriedly before Mo Bei realized what was happening. "We are sorry about it! The Mo family knows we are wrong!"
Jiang Ning said nothing.
The longer he remained silent, the more nervous Mo Chenglin became.
He could guess what sort of person Jiang Ning was even without his friend in the north telling him.
Jiang Ning definitely held absolute power in the legal circle!
Otherwise, how could he have annihilated dozens of powerful families so easily?
Moreover, the forbidden territory of Donghai had become famous precisely because their power in the illegal circle was equally terrifying!
He held absolute sway in both the legal and illegal circles. So no one else, including the Mo family, could stand up against him.
It was no wonder that even the supremely powerful Pang family perished in Jiang Ning's hands. And three supremely powerful families would come seeking to collaborate...
They didn't seem to care that the eighth mining zone was a tiny establishment.
Mo Chenglin was now truly afraid.
It took the Mo family three generations to become what they were now. But was Jiang Ning going to destroy them with a word?
"Mr Jiang, please give us a chance! Give us a chance!" said Mo Chenglin anxiously, "The Mo family is ready to hand over our wild mines. We can give you anything you want as long as Mr Jiang spares our lives."
His friend up north had already given him such a fright.
He had the northwestern region under his thumb all these years and could even disregard the powerful northern families' status. But in the face of someone who could wipe the Mo family out of existence easily, he lost all confidence!
Mo Bei continued to kneel silently next to his father and didn't dare to say a word at all.
He only dared to keep his head lowered in silence, in case Jiang Ning stared daggers into his heart with those ferocious eyes of his the moment he made eye contact.
"I can give you a chance to live," said Jiang Ning as he stared at Mo Chenglin and continued to speak with that same icy tone. "You can live, but you need to be punished!"
