Li Haojie continued to plead.
"You beast! Do you know how good the old man was to you? If he dies, you'll be the culprit. I'll settle all his scores, one by one!"
Old Mrs. Li was trembling with rage, gritting her teeth, wishing she could rush to the capital right now and tear Li Haojie to pieces. But reason told her that she couldn't act impulsively for the time being. If she did, Li Haojie would escape, and all her efforts would be in vain.
Besides, she has no way to explain herself now that the old man is dead!
Therefore, Mrs. Li had no choice but to endure it for the time being!
After hanging up the phone, a venomous glint flashed in Li Haojie's eyes. He then put the phone away, a cold smile appearing on his face, and muttered to himself, "Hmph, Li Haojie, let's see where you can hide this time?"
......
"Hey old man, why did you die so soon? I still have some questions for you!"
In a manor in the capital, an elderly man with gray hair stood in a classical wooden pavilion, looking at a century-old towering tree in front of him, a hint of regret in his eyes.
On the ground beside him lay an old man, dressed in a gray-blue Tang suit, his clothes stained with blood. The old man's face was extremely aged, his lips were cracked and bloodless, and his cloudy eyes were filled with exhaustion and pain.
The old man was Li Haoqiang. At this moment, Li Haoqiang was also covered in injuries, with blood constantly oozing from the corner of his mouth. However, a strong sense of unwillingness appeared on his face.
"My good brother, why are you leaving so soon? I haven't finished speaking yet! How could you leave so early? You bastard, how could you be so foolish?"
Li Haoqiang kept shaking his head, letting out a series of groans.
Although Li Haoqiang didn't understand medicine, he could tell from the strong fluctuations of true energy emanating from the old man that the old man's condition was very bad. Clearly, the old man had been ambushed this time.
"well......"
Li Haoqiang sighed and looked at the jade box in the old man's hand. Inside this jade box was the Li family's most precious treasure, which was said to have the power to bring the dead back to life. Moreover, this jade box was made of an extremely precious medicinal material. Even the ancestor of the Li family once tried to seize it, but ultimately failed.
"Master, please don't abandon this old servant!"
Li Haoqiang knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, tears streaming down his face. He knew that if the old man really died this time, he would never have another chance to turn things around.
The head of the Li family was his father, but his brothers all had their own businesses, and he also owned many properties. His mother was the second wife of the Li family, and she also had several concubines outside the family. However, Li Haojie knew that these women were of no use to him.
Because he already had a beloved woman in his heart, Chen Xinyi. Back then, he tried his best to pursue Chen Xinyi, but was still rejected. In the end, he turned his attention to Li Haojie's mother, Old Mrs. Li. However, Old Mrs. Li fell in love with her second brother, Li Haoqiang, and treated him like a treasure.
This made Li Haojie extremely jealous.
He desperately wanted to snatch Chen Xinyi away, no matter the cost!
However, he knew that Chen Xinyi didn't like him, just as he didn't like Chen Xinyi. Over the years, Chen Xinyi had always treated him as a friend and had never been interested in him. That's why he turned his attention to Li Haojie. After all, Li Haoqiang was the weakest, and Chen Xinyi was just an ordinary person who wouldn't dare to disobey Old Madam Li.
However, tonight, Chen Xinyi's every move was under Li Haojie's control. Just as Chen Xinyi was about to return to the Li family, she was suddenly kidnapped by two strange men.
When Li Haojie saw Chen Xinyi fall into the hands of the two men, he panicked. He didn't care about his own injuries and scrambled to Grandma Li's side for help. After hearing the news that Chen Xinyi had been kidnapped, Grandma Li rushed to the capital, hoping to rescue Chen Xinyi.
......
In the suburbs of Beijing, a black sedan was parked on the side of the road outside a dilapidated house. Around the sedan, two burly men dressed in black were watching their surroundings warily, seemingly guarding the people inside the car.
These two burly men were none other than Wang Yi and Lin Hao.
"Wang Yi, are you sure it's those people?"
Inside the car, Lin Hao sat in the driver's seat, a look of fear on his face. Just now, he had personally witnessed a group of fierce masked men throwing the old man off the mountaintop, and he had never seen those men before.
"Yes, I'm sure it's them!"
A solemn expression appeared on Wang Yi's face, his eyes were icy cold, and his gaze was fixed on a building in the distance. They had been observing this building for a long time, waiting for the right opportunity to strike. But tonight, they finally found their chance. Those people appeared just in time. If they had been a minute later, the old man would probably be dead!
"Wang Yi, I'm leaving this matter to you!"
Lin Hao looked at Wang Yi and said in a deep voice, "They have no way out. They must fight to the death, otherwise, annihilation awaits them!"
"good!"
Wang Yi nodded, a cold glint in his eyes. They were soldiers; no matter what danger they faced, they would not be afraid, much less back down!
