CHAPTER 1230 THE FAMILY'S ORDERS
News of the collapse of both the Bao family and Qing Sect rocked Las Vegas. Qing Sect's businesses quickly became highly contested in the business world.
Jiang Ning wasn't interested in those businesses.
He merely instructed Zhou Jin to keep gambling and cleaning out the casinos until they had to close down regardless of who took them over.
Jiang Ning didn't stay overseas and went straight back to Donghai.
Meanwhile.
In a secluded estate in the mountain.
There was a trace of anger in his dark eyes as His Lordship stood there.
Jiang Ning had obtained another page of the fist technique manual.
He set the stage hoping to use Jiang Ning to kill the Bao Rongdong and Qing Sect while he sat on the sidelines and waited to grab the manual. He didn't expect Jiang Ning to stage another trap.
His Lordship almost fell for Jiang Ning's tricks even!
"My Lord, it was too risky for you to do that,” said Yan Tang from behind him. "If I hadn't turned up in time, you would have been in grave danger this time."
Jiang Ning's was shockingly skilled. Since Jiang Ning had mastered two pages of the manual, he seemed on par with His Lordship in terms of skill. Also, Fei and the others even had a backup plan.
Despite how formidable His Lordship was, the moment he felt into their trap, there was probably no escape for him.
"Jiang Ning now possesses three pages of the manual," said His Lordship. "He has hit my limit. I can't let him live anymore."
Yan Tang didn't say a word.
His Lordship could have killed Jiang Ning sooner when Jiang Ning only had one
page.
Then His Lordship would at least still stand a chance against Jiang Ning even if he had to pay a high price.
But His Lordship had missed the opportunity.
It was too late!
Yan Tang was keenly aware that His Lordship didn't kill Jiang Ning previously because he didn't want to reveal his identity. But now, even if he divulged it, he probably couldn't kill Jiang Ning anymore.
"We've just landed ourselves in some trouble.” Yan Tang hesitated a little before he continued, "The family sent word.
They've clearly found out about the incident and are displeased. They want you to go back and explain yourself."
"Humph!" His Lordship's eyes instantly turned cold.
"Explain? I don't need to explain anything to them! This is my own business!" yelled
His Lordship. "Yan Tang, you know what to do."
"Yes, My Lord, I understand," said Yan Tang as he bowed respectfully. "I will go and explain."
Yan Tang knew that even though this was a mission given by the family, His Lordship had never treated it as a mission from them and just worked purely for himself.
Then Yan Tang turned and left.
After he left, His Lordship removed his mask. There was blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, and the sight was ghastly!
PFFT!
He hastily opened his mouth and shouted in pain as he spat a large mouthful of blood and coughed violently.
He was hurt!
And it was quite serious too.
"He has a terrifying boxing technique...”
His Lordship wiped the blood from the corners of his lips as a hint of disbelief flashed across his eyes.
Although His Lordship had two pages of the manual as well, Jiang Ning had surpassed him.
He had truly underestimated Jiang Ning!
His Lordship reached his hand out to pinch his shoulder. CRACK!
He restored his dislocated shoulder instantly.
But the impact of Jiang Ning's punch had penetrated through his body. If he didn't react in time, he would probably suffer worse injuries.
COUGH COUGH!
His Lordship coughed nonstop until he spat all the remaining blood out. After a long time, he slowly stopped coughing. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
His Lordship's eyes became cold again. He put his mask back on and continued being the cold, oppressive, and utterly cruel man known only as ‘His Lordship'!
