Chapter 178 "Ming Wang"

Longyao City, the land of the Xu family.

At dawn, a ceremonial car drove in and arrived at the main gate of the main hall.

Xu Qianqian got out of the car, and beside her was a mysterious figure wearing a cloak, a hood, a mask on his face, and a glove on his right hand. His appearance was completely unclear.

"Miss!"

The welcoming teams on both sides of the gate bowed and saluted to Xu Qianqian when she arrived, just like they had done for the past ten years.

Xu Qianqian nodded calmly and glanced at the mysterious man beside her.

The other party noticed Xu Qianqian's gaze and nodded calmly.

Xu Qianqian lowered her eyes, then without hesitation, she took a step forward and walked towards the main hall with the other party.

Along the way, the housekeeper and servants bowed and saluted one by one after seeing Xu Qianqian, but they also looked at the guy who was "hiding his head and showing his tail" beside Xu Qianqian with quite vigilant eyes.

Unfortunately, neither Xu Qianqian nor the mysterious man in black paid any attention to the housekeeper and servants here, and just walked towards the top floor on one side of the main building.

Not long after, Xu Qianqian arrived in front of a study.

In the study, a person was standing in front of the window with his back to the door, seemingly looking at the scenery outside.

"Father."

Xu Qianqian entered the study, looked at the man, and spoke slowly.

The man then slowly turned around and looked at Xu Qianqian.

Surprisingly, it was Xu Yongfeng.

It seemed that Xu Yongfeng had lost the amiable manner he had during the last family dinner. He seemed to have entered the same state as Xu Qianqian, cold, calm and cruel.

He first glanced at the mysterious figure next to Xu Qianqian, and then spoke.

"You are so reckless." Xu Yongfeng seemed to be angry and said coldly: "Why didn't you discuss such an important matter with me before doing it?"

Xu Yongfeng was indeed very angry.

Xu Qianqian has told Xu Yongfeng everything.

Whether it was the matter of obstructing Yanbo or the secret collusion between the Mohist School and "Sin", he even revealed his plan to act as bait and lure out the enemy according to Su Ming's instructions.

Because she still needs Xu Yongfeng's assistance, and needs Xu Yongfeng to unite with other forces in Longyao City to set up a dragnet to capture the "evil" terrorists who are very likely to be preparing to attack.

In this case, Xu Qianqian had to inform Xu Yongfeng in advance about this plan and the good things she and Su Ming were going to do.

This made Xu Yongfeng very shocked and very angry.

He was shocked that Xu Qianqian had actually done something behind his back that interfered with the "evil" ritual, and had also revealed the identity of the high-level traitor in Longyao City that he had been looking for.

He was also angry because Xu Qianqian did such a thing without consulting him at all, acting first and reporting later, making herself the target of "evil".

If Xu Yongfeng knew about this in advance, he would definitely use Xu Qianqian as bait.

Now, Xu Qianqian has become the target of "evil", and if things go wrong, someone might die.

"Why are you doing this?" Xu Yongfeng said angrily, "Although I don't know where you got that thing that can hinder the ceremony, you don't have to do it yourself. If you leave it to me, I have plenty of people who can replace you."

There was no need for Xu Qianqian to do it herself to prevent Yanbo from being released.

Changing a person or a target can also hinder the "evil" ritual, and can also become the target of "evil", acting as bait and exposing the Mohists.

As a result, Xu Qianqian did it herself and became a dangerous target. How could Xu Yongfeng not be angry?

But in the face of Xu Yongfeng's anger, Xu Qianqian just said it lightly.

"I didn't think too much about it at the time, I just did it when I thought of it."

Xu Qianqian's words made Xu Yongfeng very angry.

But it is true.

At that time, Xu Qianqian didn't think too much about it. Knowing that hindering Yanbo could trip up the enemy, she naturally agreed to release him quickly.

Afterwards, Su Mingcai told Xu Qianqian all the involvement, letting her know the seriousness and feasibility of the matter.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with what Xu Qianqian said.

The one with the problem is Su Ming.

After all, it was Su Ming who released the people who were hindering Yanbo in Xu Qianqian's villa even though he knew everything was going to happen.

He was the culprit who caused Xu Qianqian to become the target of "evil".

However, Su Ming also said that if the bait plan was not implemented, he planned to continue to release a few obstruction smoke waves in other places to divert the enemy's attention and prevent the other party from suspecting Xu Qianqian.

Therefore, Su Ming did not feel that he had to be cautious at the time. After Xu Qianqian's confirmation, he released Yanbo on the spot.

Xu Yongfeng didn't know all this and just thought that Xu Qianqian was just being willful.

"I shouldn't have spoiled you like this, letting you do anything."

Xu Yongfeng scolded angrily.

Xu Qianqian accepted it calmly, and didn't seem to have any intention of reflecting on Xu Yongfeng's scolding.

Looking at Xu Qianqian like this, Xu Yongfeng felt helpless.

Even if they are scolded, they seem to think it’s nothing.

Even if he beat her, he couldn't bring himself to beat his only daughter.

Even though he was very angry and annoyed, Xu Yongfeng knew that he could do nothing about his daughter.

So Xu Yongfeng accepted his fate.

"From now on, you are not allowed to step out of the Xu family's land. Stay at home obediently."

Xu Yongfeng stopped blaming Xu Qianqian and instead issued an order to put her under house arrest.

Only then did Xu Qianqian react.

"Is this okay?" Xu Qianqian looked directly at her father and said, "The enemy is very likely to be a 'sinful' underground professional mercenary. Even the Wang family has been breached. If I stay here, the Xu family may become a target and be attacked by the enemy."

Xu Yongfeng naturally knew this.

But this is not necessarily a bad thing.

"You can imagine how fierce the battle with the suspected 'evil' underground organization would be. If the battlefield is held somewhere else in the city, it would be unsettling." Xu Yongfeng said calmly: "Instead of that, it is better to start the battle on our territory. By then, we will have the advantage of both the terrain and the people. At least it will be an advantage."

Although limiting the battle to the Xu family's territory may have a significant impact on the Xu family's territory, the advantages of the geographical location can indeed be maximized.

Whether it is to set an ambush or to protect Xu Qianqian, it is better to do it on one's own territory than somewhere else.

"I have obtained your grandfather's consent, and have also communicated with many family forces in Longyao City in advance. In the end, we unanimously decided to take advantage of this opportunity to solve all the previous helpless situations one by one."

Xu Yongfeng revealed this news.

This told Xu Qianqian that although her father was very angry, everyone, including herself, felt that this was a good opportunity to catch the enemy who had been hiding in the dark.

To this end, when Xu Qianqian didn't know, Xu Yongfeng had actually already begun to make arrangements. Not only had he discussed it with his father, the current head of the Xu family, he had also gathered the forces of other forces in Longyao City in advance, preparing to lay a real dragnet.

Even though the opponent is "Sin", the largest mercenary organization in the underground world, one of the overlords of underground professionals, with amazing strength, which is not something that Longyao City alone can deal with, but what Su Ming can think of, these political bigwigs can naturally think of as well.

They all agreed that even if "Evil" was incredibly powerful, with multiple forces restraining it, it would be impossible for the other party to come out in full force to deal with Longyao City.

If it really comes to that, Longyao City can also ask for help from the other three base cities, gather the strength of the four base cities, and fight against "evil" together.

Even if the base cities other than the four major base cities knew that we were at war with "evil", they would come to help.

Underground professionals are underground professionals after all, and have committed unforgivable crimes in various places, especially world-class terrorist groups like "Evil". They have offended so many forces and caused so much harm. If "Evil" is really ready to come out in full force, then they will definitely be happy and not sad. They will definitely be willing to take this opportunity to catch "Evil" in one fell swoop and eradicate it completely.

"Sinful" people must know how many people in this world want to get rid of them as soon as possible, and they will definitely not be stupid enough to give others the opportunity to eliminate them.

As a result, they will certainly not be able to mobilize too much force.

In this case, there is no need for Longyao City to be timid about "evil" and they can just face it head on.

If we can anger the "evil" person and make him go out at all costs, we can get the assistance and gratitude of other base city forces. This deal is not a loss no matter how we calculate it.

To sum up, after Xu Yongfeng learned about Xu Qianqian's affairs, he discussed with the senior officials and family forces in Longyao City overnight, and finally decided to wade into this muddy water.

Rather, if they don’t seize the opportunity, facing the chaos and danger that may come at any time, Longyao City will really end up being crushed by “evil” at will.

The matter that had been confusing before has now made some progress. Not to mention Xu Yongfeng, even the other high-level forces in Longyao City can't wait to take action.

Therefore, apart from Xu Qianqian's dissatisfaction with being used as bait, Xu Yongfeng was still very concerned and excited about this operation.

Xu Qianqian was surprised at how quickly the matter progressed.

"Did Grandpa agree too?"

Xu Qianqian muttered.

"What else can I do if I disagree?" Xu Yongfeng snorted coldly, and said, "Now it's already imminent, and the opponent is a force that can even destroy the Wang family. Your grandfather won't just sit there and watch."

After saying this, Xu Yongfeng turned around and looked at the mysterious figure who was standing next to Xu Qianqian and had been quietly acting as a background board. His eyes began to flicker.

"But the man next to you shouldn't be one of your private soldiers, right?"

Xu Yongfeng finally mentioned the existence of this person.

Xu Qianqian immediately became expressionless.

"He is not a private soldier under my command, but an assistant."

Xu Qianqian said this expressionlessly, as if she was not very close to the person next to her.

But as Xu Qianqian's father, Xu Yongfeng could naturally hear that although his willful daughter looked cold, her tone could not hide her relief.

This made Xu Yongfeng raise his eyebrows.

"Who is this?"

Xu Yongfeng asked out loud.

The person who answered was not Xu Qianqian, but the central figure of the topic.

"Councilman Xu should know me." The other party suddenly spoke up in a slightly low and humorous tone, saying: "After all, this is not the first time I have helped Miss Xu."

Such words made Xu Yongfeng stunned at first, and then he seemed to think of something.

"Could it be that you are the mysterious strong man that Miss Yun sent to rescue my daughter during the Battle of Huaming?"

Xu Yongfeng's eyes lit up and he looked at the other person.

"It's me."

The other party admitted it readily.

This person was naturally Su Ming, who had disguised himself and concealed his identity.

"May I know your name?"

Upon learning that Su Ming was the mysterious strong man who saved Xu Qianqian last time and the Yun family master who was able to defeat Gao Xu, Xu Yongfeng's attitude became formal.

Unfortunately, Xu Yongfeng didn't know that the mysterious and powerful man in front of him was actually the "acquaintance of Miss Yun" who he had invited to attend the family dinner before.

"I have no name or surname."

Su Ming's eyes rolled slightly and he spoke like this.

"You can call me Ming Wang."

I am clearly not a supporting role today, but I want you to call me the king.

Su Ming was playing with jokes in his mind with evil humor.

"Ming Wang."

Xu Yongfeng was recalling rapidly in his mind, trying to find any memory related to the title "Ming Wang".

Of course, he couldn't find it.

(How come I have never heard of a strong man who can compete with high-level professionals and even defeat Gao Xu?)

Xu Yongfeng thought about it silently in his heart, but did not spend too much time.

Since he is a member of the Yun family, it is very likely that he was invited by the Yun family from another base city.

The Yunliu Chamber of Commerce does business in the four major base cities and has a wide network of contacts. Perhaps they made friends with such a mysterious and powerful person there.

In this case, it is normal that you have not heard of the other party.

Xu Yongfeng didn't think about it any more.

"It is an honor for our Xu family that His Excellency Ming Wang has come to help us again." Xu Yongfeng just said, "I wonder if this is what Miss Yun meant, or what Madam meant?"

"Of course that's what the young lady meant." Su Ming answered with a carefree smile.

"So that's how it is." Xu Yongfeng suddenly understood.

It seems that this time it was the young man named Su Ming who asked Yun Langyue for help, so Yun Langyue sent out His Excellency King Ming again to help.

Xu Yongfeng's idea coincided with Su Ming's previous design.

Su Ming successfully sneaked in as a mysterious and powerful man and participated in this major event.
