The biggest blow to Wan Qingshan's murder was to his only daughter, Wan Ya.

She was only 19 years old when she suffered the pain of losing her father.

Having lost her mother at a young age, and now with even her only remaining relative gone, Wan Ya felt as if the whole world was collapsing.

Lin Dong's arrest and imprisonment came as a surprise to her.

Rumors circulated that Lin Dong was the mastermind behind her father's murder.

But how could Lin Dong kill his father? His father had been so good to him, and he and Lin Dong were friends. How could this be possible?

Wan Ya refused to believe this fact, and she couldn't believe that Lin Dong would do such a heinous thing.

She has lost weight in the past few days, and her delicate oval face looks even more haggard.

January 8, Binjiang Villa Garden, No. 62 Guoyuan Road.

The funeral hall at Wanqing Mountain was sparsely populated with guests, hardly befitting the funeral of a powerful figure in the martial arts world.

That's true. No matter how glorious you were in life, there will always be a time when people forget you when you're gone.

Moreover, Wanqi is now in a precarious situation, with its leader dead, Lin Dong imprisoned, and Fan Gui seriously injured.

People in the martial arts world all know that Yunying Society, the largest gang in Nandu, is joining forces with Gao Qijiang to relentlessly suppress Wan Qi.

Caught between two major underworld forces, Wan Qi's eventual downfall and complete dismantling of his forces was only a matter of time.

At this point, even Wan Qi's original dozens of thugs scattered, and some even turned to Gao Qijiang for help.

In the world of gangsters, how many truly value loyalty? Most are driven by self-interest.

After noon, most of the guests who came to pay their respects at the mourning hall on Wanqing Mountain had left.

Half an hour ago, Wan Ya saw off Wang Hu, the leader of the North District Meat Processing Gang.

Among all the underground forces in Nandu, only Wang Hu dared to disregard suspicion and personally go to Wanqing Mountain to offer incense.

This spirit and sentiment surprised not only Wan Ya, but also everyone present.

What's Wang Hu, the king of the North District, up to?

Doesn't he know that Wan Qi's power is already gone?

"Young Miss, something terrible has happened! Gao Qijiang has brought a large group of people here!"

Wan Ya knelt before her father's coffin, lost in thought, when suddenly the anxious voice of Fatty Ma Baorong came from outside the door.

Gao Qijiang is here? What's this wolf doing here?

A short while later, a group of people poured in through the open gate of the villa, all dressed in stylish black leather jackets.

The leader, a lean man wearing a gray fleece coat with a gloomy face, was none other than Gao Qijiang, the boss of Gao Xin's gang.

As soon as Gao Qijiang entered, he waved his hand, signaling his gang members to stop in the front hall.

He led Cao Keng and the skinny monkey straight to Wan Qingshan's memorial tablet and black-and-white portrait.

Gao Qijiang silently lit three incense sticks, ignoring the angry gaze from Wan Ya beside him, and took the lead in bowing three times to the memorial tablet and portrait.

Then, he walked up to Wan Ya and said in a deep voice:

"Miss Wan, please accept my condolences. The dead cannot be brought back to life. I also just experienced the grief of losing a loved one a few days ago."

Wan Ya remained silent, turned her head away, and refused to look at Gao Qijiang again, thus expressing her silent disdain and anger.

"Young Miss, what kind of attitude is this? You don't actually think that your father was killed by someone hired by me, Gao Qijiang, do you?"

Gao Qijiang snorted coldly:

"Wan Qingshan himself is blind to people's character and raised an ungrateful wretch like Lin Dong. Who can he blame but himself?"

"Lin Dong would never kill my dad. My dad's death must have been done by some beasts."

When Wan Ya saw Gao Qijiang slandering her father and Lin Dong, she couldn't help but retort.

"You brat, who are you calling an animal?"

The skinny monkey behind Gao Qijiang, eager to protect his master, blurted out a string of curses.

"I was just saying it was done by some beasts, and you yourselves admit you were beasts? I get it now, so you really were the ones who killed my dad!"

Wan Ya's delicate face flushed red. She stood up abruptly and pointed at the three men in front of her, shouting loudly.

Gao Qijiang turned around and glared at the skinny monkey reproachfully, almost wanting to kick him out the door. What kind of pig-brained subordinate is this?

"Don't make things up without evidence, Miss. On the contrary, the genius Lin Dong that you all talk about is the one the police have identified as the mastermind behind the murder."

Gao Qijiang revealed a sinister smile:

"It won't be long before Lin Dong is convicted and brought to justice, forever branded as a traitor who betrayed his own brother, hehe..."

Cao Keng and the skinny monkey behind him laughed gleefully.

"Miss Wan, did your father leave a will before he died? If not, why don't you join Gao Xin's group? With me and Yunying Society protecting you, you won't be afraid of being bullied as a woman, right?"

Gao Qijiang reached out and patted Wan Ya on the shoulder.

Get your stinky hands off me!

Wan Ya's stubbornness kicked in, and she slapped Gao Qijiang's large hand away.

Gao Qijiang's expression changed, and he smiled sinisterly:

"You'd better think this through. Once Lin Dong is convicted, it will be the end for Wanqi. You will not only lose everything, but you might also be sold into prostitution."

"you......"

Wan Ya was so angry that her lips trembled, but she had no way to fight back. What power did a weak woman like herself have to resist?

This is so frustrating!

"When my Uncle Fan Gui returns, I'll kill you all!"

Wan Ya gritted her teeth and muttered under her breath.

Upon hearing this, the skinny monkey let out a series of cackling laughs:

"Fan Gui? He's a cripple now, and it's uncertain whether he can even stand up again."

"Hey girl, wake up! Otherwise, I'll really sell you into prostitution, and then it'll be too late for you to cry, haha..."
