CHAPTER 1738 INVESTIGATE

There was suddenly a tinge of respect on Li Zhengshang's face when he said these words.

Halen's heart trembled when he saw that clearly reverent attitude and look in Li Zhengshang's eyes.

"Your boss?" Halen frowned deeply. He had always been worried that there was someone backing Li Zhengshang.

Since this man dared to come here and form his own mercenary army, there was no way he didn't have someone backing him.

Li Zhengshang hadn't come here for very long, but he seemed very confident and had managed to amass a decent sized army for himself in a short time. He even declared that he would treat the soldiers as his own family, and gathered a lot of support from the men as a result.

This was spoiling the market for the rest of the mercenary armies. After all, these soldiers were just tools, and they were supposed to sacrifice their lives when necessary since they had been paid to do exactly that!

Dying at someone else's hands was only to be expected, but Li Zhengshang seemed to cherish every single life that worked for him.

"That's right. My boss has instructed me to come here, and everything I've done is according to his instructions, so I wouldn't dare to simply make any decisions on his behalf." Li Zhengshang smiled. "Nobody has ever been able to force my boss to make any decision, including myself."

The implied meaning of his words was very clear. 'Nobody' also included Halen and his Purple Moon Mercenary Army!

Halen's expression darkened, but he did not blow up.

He had been worried that Li Zhengshang had a backer, and that this backer was someone that should not be trifled with.

If the backer turned out to be someone powerful in the Third World, then things would get tricky. Nobody wanted unnecessary trouble, and they all worked very hard here because they were just trying to strike it rich in this region.

When he saw the expression, attitude and the gleam in Li Zhengshang's eyes, Halen didn't dare to continue asking.

"Is that so? In that case, I can't force you then. Do you know when your boss would be coming here?" He paused before continuing, "My lieutenant would like to invite him over for a visit.”

His lieutenant didn't know anything, but Halen just made this up on the spot. This belongs to - ©.

"No idea," Li Zhengshang continued to smile. "As I said, I can't interfere in my boss' business and I can't influence him in any way. He comes when he wants to, and nobody can force him to come if he doesn't want to."

Li Zhengshang had such a glib tongue and weaseled his way out of this situation so easily. Halen couldn't get him to promise anything at all.

"Hoho, fine, I get it." Halen scoffed. "I won't disturb you anymore then! Let's go!”

He then left with his men.

After everyone had left, Li Zhengshang breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.

He felt very stressed when faced with a highly skilled fighter like Halen. He was afraid that Halen might suddenly lose his temper and suddenly decide to attack him. His men might not be able to hold Halen back at all.

"We're not going to hold up for long," Li Zhengshang laughed bitterly as he shook his head. "Mr Jiang, if you don't come soon, then I don't know what to do if Halen comes round again."

He was now pretending that he was very formidable when he wasn't. Halen was wary precisely because he didn't have sufficient information about the Li family.

But people as powerful as Halen definitely had the means to find out everything about himself. Once they found out what happened in Las Vegas, then Li Zhengshang wouldn't be able to hide anything from them anymore.

When that happened, nothing Li Zhengshang said would be of any use. Once Halen was no longer wary of him, Halen would definitely attack him and take everything away by force.

Then he would really be in trouble.

Li Zhengshang sat in his chair and looked into the distance as his heart pounded more and more quickly.

Ever since he came here, he had never had a good night's rest. He was always worried that one day, he would fall asleep and never wake up again.

This pressurizing feeling was getting stronger and stronger now.

The feeling of being in danger was getting more and more suffocating.

He and his son were going to break down soon!

Jiang Ning had to come quickly!
