CHAPTER 1739 PRETENDING

Li Zhengshang felt the pressure of this region the most.

His intentions were very simple. He just wanted to pave the road for Li Genhong's future while he was still able to, and this road was a life of following Jiang Ning!

This was the best chance that the Li family had, and he didn't want his son to miss it.

Li Zhengshang sat in his chair and exhaled deeply as the feeling of exhaustion immediately overtook his heart.

But he didn't dare to rest. He didn't dare to even let his guard down one tiny bit.

In this sort of place, one had to constantly be vigilant and alert. If you weren't careful enough, you wouldn't just lose money or status, but you might also lose your life.

And now, someone had their eye on them. The Purple Moon Mercenary Army weren't people to be trifled with.

After Halen left Li Zhengshang's, his expression was rather nasty.

This was already his third visit to Li Zhengshang, so he had been kind enough already.

If he wasn't wary of Li Zhengshang's backer, he would have lost his patience a long time ago.

But that was also why he kept testing the waters and sounding Li Zhengshang out. Now that Li Zhengshang said that his boss was disagreeable, Halen was even more wary than before.

"Halen, what should we do? This Li family is not simple, and their backer might be even more powerful!"

"That's right. The lieutenant has said that we must not allow any threats to grow around us. Even though these people aren't a threat at the moment, if we don't swallow them up now, they'll eventually spell trouble later."

"They're not advancing very quickly, but the way they operate makes all of us very pissed off and the lieutenant is very upset about it too."

The few men with Halen raised their concerns.

Halen didn't say anything and just frowned. He was still trying to figure out if Li Zhengshang was just pretending to be formidable or not.

He had already checked and made sure that no big shot had arrived recently.

Everyone in the Third World more or less found their own place already, so they wouldn't wait till now to take action. The resources had already been distributed, so surely none of them was crazy enough to attempt snatching resources from someone else, right?

"We'll go back first!" Halen snorted before smiling coldly. "I've already sent someone to investigate this father and son, so I should get the report soon."

The car sped off and sent sand flying in all directions.

Halen and his men went back to their camp and he returned to his own office.

The phone started ringing the moment he sat down.

"Lieutenant!" He immediately stood up again and he had a respectful expression on his face. "Yes! Yes! I've gone over and that Li is really a wily old fox. It's hard to tell when he's lying and when he's not, so it's a bit tricky."

"I've already gotten someone to investigate and I'll know the results soon. Once I confirm my guess is right, I'll take action immediately!"

Halen's expression darkened even further after hanging up.

He had dragged this on for too long, so he just got a scolding from his superior. If Li Zhengshang turned out to be lying to him, he was going to teach this father and son a good lesson!

What boss?

He didn't think they had a boss.

And even if they did, so what?

The more Halen thought about it, the angrier he got. The Purple Moon Mercenary Army was the most powerful army in this region, so there was no way they would allow any threat around them to exist.

He had no regard for those other tiny mercenary armies, since they learnt to manage their troops the same way that Purple Moon Mercenary Army did and were clearly of no threat to him.

But the way the Li family operated made Halen very uncomfortable.

He sat down and pulled out a can of beer from the fridge. He pulled the tab back and chugged the beer down.

He made a phone call after chugging the beer. It had been half a month already, so if he still didn't get any useful clues, he was going to kill someone soon!

It took a long time before the other party picked up the call, and his voice was lazy.

"Yes, yes, I know you're anxious. I've been

investigating them all this while, and I have some information on hand now."Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
