Chapter 137: Trap (2)

“Have you seen her?” The men sent by the Ping Family asked through the intercom.

After Old Master Ping reported this matter to the Lian Family, they felt disdainful of this matter and simply send them away. Because in their opinion, it was nothing more than a small scuffle between Yu Shi Lan and Lian Lei Xu.

The two of them were of the younger generation and it was not the business of the older generation.

Besides, Lian Lei Xu’s position in the Lian Family was not that high.

They didn’t think highly of that young man.

Old Master Ping was unconvinced after he found out that the Lian Family was not wiling to participate in this matter. They just regarded it as the younger generation squabble and would not interfere.

But Old Master Ping couldn’t do it!

His son had died because of Lian Lei Xu’s order to deal with Yu Shi Lan and now the Lian Family didn’t even want to acknowledge this matter, treating it as nothing more than a small incident.

He didn’t even get any compensation.

They felt that Old Master Ping son’s death has nothing to do with them, so why should they care about this matter?

It was already good enough that they didn’t kick him out directly for making a fuss out of nothing.

When Old Master Ping heard them treating his son’s death as an accident unrelated to them, he was filled with utmost resentment. He had been working hard for such a long time for the Lian Family and relying on them, the Ping Family managed to grow up so big.

A lot of money and convenience in business.

That was why Old Master Ping remained loyal to the Ping Family and didn’t try to overstep his bounds.

Even his own son was close to the Lian Family.

But now…

Heh.

Old Master Ping felt that it would be stupid to hope for these people to have any conscience. They were nothing more than businessmen who cared for profit more than anything else.

Once someone was no longer of use to them, they would discard them without hesitation.

Clearly, the Ping Family that he had was included among them.

It was already useless, so the Lian Family would not even bother trying to keep up the facade and treated him rudely. Many families under the Lian Family had already been broken up in the past two months.

The earthquake caused such a huge change.

The ambitious and capable rises up.

Those who were unable to keep up with the changes were swept away and become the loser in the battle.

It was tragic.

But Old Master Ping felt nothing. He had always known that the business world was extremely cruel. Someone could be extremely rich at one moment and the next second, he became a pauper who had nothing in his hand.

And the competition in the recent time was even more ruthless.

The resources that were scattered around were being contended over by people of various forces. Aside from avoiding the military who have the complete weapon and advantage, they would easily attack other forces.

The Ping Family naturally has enough men on their own too.

But compared to the Lian Family… it was nothing more than a small faction.

Old Master Ping was resentful, but he didn’t dare to attack the Lian Family, so he could only turn his head towards Yu Shi Lan.

It was fine for the Lian Family to despise him.

But who is this Yu Shi Lan?

She’s nothing more than an orphan who could be easily bullied by others.

Even if she had learned some martial arts to protect herself, Old Master Ping didn’t think too highly about it. He believed that under the suppression of weapons and the elites of the Ping Family, Yu Shi Lan will definitely die!

So Old Master Ping sent his men to set up traps on the road that Yu Shi Lan picked.

She went out of the base on her own because she’s confident in her strength, but Old Master Ping felt that she was nothing.

The Lian Family didn’t want to help him, then he would send his own people.

It was not like he couldn’t do anything.

Now, Old Master Ping was listening to the report of his subordinates. One of them said that they spotted Yu Shi Lan in the distance, pushing a carriage that contained a few mutated animals.

Mutated animals?

“Is she so powerful that she can deal with these mutated animals?” Old Master Ping felt that something was strange.

He had seen Yu Shi Lan showed off her martial arts and dealt with those bodyguards once. But her movements were not very good in his eyes and only a bit faster, which is why she can deal with them.

Now the people he sent were all elites of his men.

Moreover, he also equipped them with the weapons that he obtained from the Lian Family and some other things.

These things were actually banned weapons.

The weapon control in their country was extremely strict, so one had to rely on some gray channel to obtain it. The Lian Family was able to grow so big partially because they controlled some channels to obtain weapons.

What they used it for, Old Master Ping didn’t know.

But it was good that he was able to equip himself with enough weapons or it would be difficult to deal with that Yu Shi Lan.

“Dealing with a few mutated animals are nothing.”

Old Master Ping frowned and simply waited for his men to send him news.

But even after more than an hour had passed, no one send him anything.

Old Master Ping fidgeted and took the intercom.

“What’s the current situation now? Have you dealt with that b*tch Yu Shi Lan?” He asked but there was no answer.

The communication channel was quiet.

So quiet that it’s eerie.

Old Master Ping frowned in confusion.
