Chapter 41: Chapter 41 Xu Dong, Too Upset to Cry!
Ye Fan\'s bodyguards swarmed him, punching and kicking in a frenzy. In an instant, Xu Dong\'s face turned black and blue, and his ribs and arms were smashed into several pieces.
Hearing Xu Dong cussing and swearing, Xu Dong finally understood!
The Young Master of the Wang Family, Wang Chao, was dead, and it was somehow his own doing – had he abducted and then killed him?
But he had been soaking in the company of beauties all afternoon at home, and it wasn\'t until tonight that he came here to meet that assassin boss. When would he have had the time to abduct Wang Chao? Besides, he bore no grudge against Wang Chao, so why would he kidnap and kill him?
Furthermore, according to what Xu Dong knew, Wang Chao had even sent people to attack Su Yixue that afternoon.
By all accounts, Wang Chao should have been considered his ally!
"Stop! Wait a second, Boss Wang… Isn\'t there some misunderstanding here? I\'ve never even met Wang Chao. Where would I go to abduct him? Ouch..."
Enduring the intense pain, Xu Dong crawled out of the crowd, wailing towards Wang Zhong, "Boss Wang, please don\'t wrongly accuse an innocent man!"
Looking at the beaten and disfigured Xu Dong, Wang Zhong snorted coldly, snatching Wang Chao\'s mobile phone from Xu Dong\'s hand, "Wrongly accuse you? Hmph! What\'s this then?"
"This is Wang Chao\'s phone. The last message told me that the kidnappers were going to kill him, and that he\'d put the phone on the kidnapper\'s body! What excuse do you have now?"
Wang Zhong\'s words left Xu Dong utterly baffled, "Right, why is the phone on me?"
Damn it!
Xu Dong felt like not even jumping into the Yellow River could clear his name!
He had clearly been at home all afternoon and hadn\'t gone anywhere. Out of the blue, his possessions included an extra mobile phone. He had left home wearing freshly changed clothes which had just been washed; there couldn\'t have been anything else on him.
On his way here, his car hadn\'t even stopped. The only person he\'d met was the idiot Ye Fan!
Thinking of Ye Fan, a thought flashed through Xu Dong\'s mind. Recalling how Ye Fan had hugged him earlier, he figured it out!
It must have been Ye Fan\'s doing!
"Boss Wang, it was Ye Fan! It must have been Ye Fan who killed Wang Chao and then framed me. On my way here, I only came across Ye Fan!" Xu Dong hurriedly explained.
In his mind, he also pieced together the recent events: the sudden annihilation of the Zhao Family, the rescue of Su Yixue. All these actions seemed very suspicious!
Previously, Xu Dong did not understand why things had escalated the way they had; those families against the Ye Family seemed to end up with bad fates. But in that moment, Xu Dong thought that maybe Ye Fan had awakened.
All of this was likely Ye Fan\'s covert revenge.
"Ye Fan, that idiot, framing you? Hmph! Xu Dong, do you have no shame? If you want a scapegoat, at least find a convincing one! Ye Fan, that idiot, can\'t even take care of himself, let alone kill someone," Wang Zhong stepped forward, grabbing Xu Dong by the neck, his teeth gritted with rage, "Tell me, where have you hidden my son\'s body? Why did you kill him?"
Xu Dong\'s neck was squeezed so tightly he could barely breathe, "Boss Wang, I really didn\'t kill anyone! It wasn\'t me... cough cough..."
"You\'re still damn lying! You think I won\'t strangle you right here!" Wang Zhong was livid, increasing the pressure on his grip; Xu Dong\'s face turned crimson and his eyes bulged out.
Almost instinctively, Xu Dong pulled out a dagger from his body and slashed at Wang Zhong\'s arm.
Thud!
A gash instantly opened on Wang Zhong\'s arm, blood gushing out.
"Ah! You little bastard, not content with just killing Wang Chao, you want to kill me too? You\'re asking for it!" Completely enraged, Wang Zhong cursed out loud while he slammed Wang Chao onto the ground. Then snatching a battle saber from one of his subordinates, he hacked towards Xu Dong, "This is for touching my son, for killing my son!"
Thud! Thud!
One slash, two slashes…
"Boss Wang, don\'t chop anymore, it really wasn\'t me..."
"It really wasn\'t me, you\'ve all been deceived by Ye Fan... wuu..."
At first, Xu Dong still had the strength to shout, but faced with Wang Zhong\'s frenzied swinging of the battle saber, it only took a moment for Xu Dong\'s body to be covered in open, gaping wounds, his blood flowing all over the ground. Xu Dong was already exhaling more than he was inhaling.
His body convulsed a few times on the spot before becoming completely motionless.
Exhausted from chopping, Wang Zhong finally stopped his actions and collapsed onto the ground, bursting into tears, "My son, your father is useless, he still hasn\'t found where your body is hidden! But rest assured, if Xu Dong dared to kill you, there must be an accomplice, I will definitely not let that bastard Xu Jian off..."
A fierce light flashed in Wang Zhong\'s eyes, "Send someone to find out Xu Jian\'s location, Laotzu wants to tear him to pieces!"
"Yes!"
Wang Zhong\'s men were very efficient, and quickly cleaned up the scene, after which Wang Zhong prepared to take his men and leave.
Hiding in the shadows, Xia Hao, following Ye Fan and watching the scene unfold, understood everything after seeing Ye Fan\'s earlier actions.
A masterful strategy of using another\'s hand to deal the killing blow!
Ye Fan must have planted the cell phone on Xu Dong when he went to find him.
Then, utilizing the Wang Family\'s methods to deal with Xu Dong and his son, he could effortlessly remove the threat within the Ye Family without lifting a finger.
Xu Jian and his son had secretly planned to take control of Ye Corporation. Xia Hao, upon discovering this, was hesitant to tell Ye Fan, but now seeing Ye Fan\'s actions, it was clear he had known about it all along.
"Did you get it all on camera?" Ye Fan withdrew his gaze and asked Xia Hao.
Xia Hao put away his phone and nodded, "It\'s all very clear, I\'ve already edited out some unnecessary scenes on the spot!"
Ye Fan\'s mouth twitched, "Find a stranger and send this video to Xu Jian! Let them continue to fight like dogs!"
If Xu Jian wasn\'t warned in advance, Wang Zhong might just rush over and kill Xu Jian too quickly, which would be no fun at all.
Ye Fan wanted at least to let Xu Jian struggle a bit, expose the forces of his legitimate line, then die. That way, the troubles within Ye Corporation would be greatly reduced afterwards!
"Okay!"
Xia Hao responded with a sound and turned to drive Ye Fan back home.
Right now, Ye Fan was still outwardly in a foolish state, and had to return to Su Yixue\'s place before daylight.
In the car, Ye Fan took out a porcelain bottle from his person and handed it to Xia Hao, "These are some elixirs I\'ve concocted before, which could help you enhance your strength to break through, into the Martial Arts Control Realm!"
"Ah? Thank you, Young Master Ye, thank you!" Xia Hao, who was already in his fifties or sixties, had barely stepped into the Energy-Transforming Stage of martial arts, which was already very difficult. Without some other fortuitous encounter, it was almost impossible for Xia Hao to make any further breakthroughs.
Xia Hao also knew that with the help of elixirs, the chances of breaking through could be increased.
But the problem was, alchemists were absolutely scarce resources in Great Xia. There were less than ten masters in the entire Great Xia who could independently concoct Grade Two Elixirs. Ordinary people couldn\'t buy these elixirs, no matter how much money they offered.
"There are five pills inside, give one to Lord Hu, and as for the rest, you decide how to distribute them. But do not expose me! Being too weak while working for me just won\'t do!" Ye Fan quickly instructed.
Xia Hao nodded earnestly, "Yes! What about Young Master Wang..." Xia Hao was about to ask about Wang Fugui, but thinking that as Ye Fan\'s close buddy, Ye Fan must have considered him.
"Old Wang?" Mentioning Wang Fugui, a profound look flashed in Ye Fan\'s eyes, "If everything goes according to plan, Cloud City will have another grandmaster-level powerhouse tomorrow!"
A small smile appeared on Ye Fan\'s lips, the Vitality Pill he had acquired from the black market should be effective!
Meanwhile, back in the Wang Family Courtyard, Wang Fugui who had returned home, had already started taking action...
