Chapter 632: Chapter 631: Ling Yuyangâs deep schemes and venomous heart, to Ye Tianchen, were all beyond his expectations. He had thought this guy simply wanted to seize the Ling Groupâs assets and foolishly serve as a puppet to the M groupâs government robbers. However, it seemed things were not so simple, and Ling Yuyang was not so foolish. He knew he would be used by the M countryâs government, but he also wanted to use them to help him acquire the entire Ling Group. The rest would naturally be dealt with later.
"Young Master, if the old master is poisoned to death, things will likely get more troublesome afterwards. If you canât quell the remaining members of the Ling family, Iâm afraid the M countryâs government will also make a move against you!"
Ye Tianchen thought about it and then said, he naturally didnât want Ling Shuanghe to be killed; his purpose for coming here was to save both Ling Shuanghe and Ling Yuxun. It was just that he hadnât expected that the Ling familyâs situation was not so easy to resolve, not something that could be settled merely by killing, it would require more gradual steps. Were there any other conspiracies, or deeper schemes from Ling Yuyang and the M countryâs government that he didnât know about?
"We only have two days left, weâve been searching for that seal for nearly half a month with no luck in finding it. Itâs almost impossible to find it in the last two days. Act sooner on that immortal old man, and then observe the reaction. If there are others in the Ling family who dare to be long-winded and disobedient to me, Ling Yuyang, Iâll kill them all!" Ling Yuyang said with ruthless coldness.
"By the way, Young Master, Chief Luo Ha asked me to give you this!" Ye Tianchen said, taking out a small white vial from his chest.
"Hmm? What is this?" Ling Yuyang asked as he took the small white vial.
"Sleeping drugs!" Ye Tianchen said seriously.
"Sleeping drugs? Can this stuff be trusted? Just by using it, they want to seize the entire Ling Group; arenât these robbers from the M country being a bit too naive?" Ling Yuyang couldnât help but sneer and ask.
"Young Master, Chief Luo Ha said this is a nerve agent newly developed by the M country. Once someone takes this drug, they will be controlled, made to do whatever is commanded. This isnât a temporary control; if the one who administers the drug wishes, they could control the person for a lifetime," Ye Tianchen explained.
"Thereâs such a thing? Thatâs great stuff. It looks like those people from the M countryâs government have put some thought into this, even more proactive than me. Alright, letâs use this drug..."
Having said that, Ling Yuyang couldnât wait to open the small white vial and scattered some white powder on top of the Songhua Cake. Surprisingly, as soon as the powder was sprinkled out, it completely dissolved into the Songhua Cake without a trace and was colorless and tasteless, a truly terrifying thing. If leaders of some major countries ate this... It really was something one wouldnât dare to imagine.
"Alright, go now. Watch this immortal old man eat it, then see how Iâll deal with him. Iâll make him kick Ling Yue, Ling Xia, and Ling Qing out of the Ling family first, change his mind to let me take charge of the family, and then convene a board meeting of the Ling Group to announce publicly that I, Ling Yuyang, will become the new chairman of the Ling Group... Hahaha!" Ling Yuyang boasted confidently, as if he had already become the chairman of the Ling Group in that moment.
"Yes, Young Master!"
Ye Tianchen nodded, took the Songhua Cake that Ling Yuyang had laced with the white control drug, then turned and walked toward the door. He knew that using this drug was the best idea for both Ling Yuyang and the robbers of the M countryâs government. Everyone knew that it was far more valuable to keep Ling Shuanghe alive, controlled by them, and malleable, than to kill him. If Ling Shuanghe was obedient, the M countryâs government could keep the Ling Group developing in the M country without effort or combat. Similarly for Ling Yuyang, striving for control was nothing compared to having Ling Shuanghe willingly cede the chairman position to him; then within the Ling Group, no one would dare to object. If not for this reason, Ling Yuyang would have killed his own father sooner, and the M countryâs government wouldnât have given Ling Shuanghe a last week to consider.
"Wait a moment..." Ling Yuyang seemed to think of something, and called out to Ye Tianchen just as he reached the doorway.
"Whatâs the matter, Young Master?" Ye Tianchen turned and asked.
"Thereâs some of the drug left; you might as well control those two vicious women, Ling Xia and Ling Qing, too. I might need their strength later!" Ling Yuyang said with a cold laugh.
"Young Master, I know what to do!" Ye Tianchen nodded and said.
"Go!" Ling Yuyang waved his hand with satisfaction.
Ye Tianchen left the villa where Ling Yuyang resided, carrying a plate of Songhua Cake laced with the white sleeping drug, and slowly headed toward the courtyard where Ling Shuanghe lived. Ye Tianchen always had a premonition and intuition, not something sensed by his powerful Superpower Perception but a kind of sixth senseâhe felt that the matter with the Ling family was not that simple, that Ling Yuyang surely had something up his sleeve. That move was something only Ling Yuyang knew, even Apo, who loyally followed Ling Yuyang for seventeen years, didnât know. Could it have to do with that powerful and sinister aura? Who was that person hiding in the shadows?
Without realizing it, Ye Tianchen arrived at the gates of the courtyard where Ling Shuanghe lived. Naturally, the guards at the front did not dare to stop the housekeeper, but as soon as he entered, Ye Tianchen saw Bao Tianglong and Li San. Initially, Ye Tianchen hadnât seen them, but now, these two guys were guarding in the courtyard, apparently aware of the danger and unwilling to risk an accident.
"Stop there, no one may enter without Old Master Lingâs permission!" Li San stopped Ye Tianchen and said.
"Hmph, it was our young master who asked me to bring Songhua Cake to Old Master Ling. Who on earth are you to dare stop me?" Ye Tianchen didnât want to reveal his identity, as this hidden identity allowed him to gather more information, so he didnât want Li San and Bao Tianglong to know either.
"I donât care who sent you here, nor do I care who you are. Without Old Master Lingâs permission, no one is allowed in!" Li San said sternly.
"How dare you! What are you two good for? Do you even know who I am? When I was at the Ling familyâs manor, you two probably didnât even know where it was!" Ye Tianchen scolded loudly on purpose.
"Hey, canât you understand human speech, or are you tired of living? I said it doesnât matter who you are, even if you were the Heavenly King, you canât enter today!" Li San stood directly in front of Ye Tianchen and said.
With a creak, the door in the center of the courtyard opened at that moment, and Ling Yuxun appeared at the doorway. She glanced at Ye Tianchen and asked, "Manager Apo, is there something wrong?"
"Miss Sun, the young master sent me to bring some desserts to Old Master Ling, but these two wonât let me in!" Ye Tianchen said annoyedly. Seará´h the NĂ´velĆire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Oh, then, then come in!" Ling Yuxun said after thinking for a moment.
"Hmm!"
Ye Tianchen looked coldly at Li San and Bao Tianglong, then strode towards Ling Yuxun. However, just as he took a few steps forward, Bao Tianglong suddenly appeared in front of him with incredible speed, startling even Ling Yuxun into almost crying out.
Bao Tianglong glanced at Ye Tianchen, then turned to Ling Yuxun and said, "Miss Ling, itâs late at night now. I donât agree with letting other people enter Old Master Lingâs room. No one is allowed!"
"But..." Ling Yuxun appeared hesitant, seemingly too kind-hearted. She thought that since Apo had been the manager of the Ling family manor for over a decade, he wouldnât harm her or her grandfather, so she was somewhat undecided.
"Miss Sun, this is Songhua Cake, Old Master Lingâs favorite; the young master had the chef specially prepare it, capturing the authentic taste of Capital City. Itâs because we know Old Master Ling is sick; tasting it might help him recover faster," Ye Tianchen quickly said with a smile.
"Even if it were dragon meat, you wouldnât be allowed to enter!" Bao Tianglong said, staring intently at Ye Tianchen.
"Miss Ling, our brother sent us to protect you and Old Master Ling; itâs our duty to be extra cautious and considerate until he arrives," Li San also spoke up.
"I donât know what Tianchen is up to, why hasnât he come to the manor yet..." Ling Yuxun muttered worriedly.
"Miss Ling can rest assured, our brother should arrive soon, and by then, everything will be resolved," Bao Tianglong said with a smile.
"Iâm not worried about myself; Iâm afraid something might happen to Tianchen. After all, this is M country. I hope he can be safe!" Ling Yuxun said earnestly.
Ye Tianchen felt a little moved inside. As a former Divine-level Superpower Expert who had witnessed too much slaughter and seen too many separations of joy and sorrow, he shouldnât be so easily touched, but the purest touch in the world comes from the most genuine feelings. A person is not a plant; how can they be emotionless? A truly heartless person is a devil!
"Miss Sun, since itâs Old Master Lingâs favorite Songhua Cake, then you can carry it in yourself; the rest can go back where they came from!" Bao Tianglong said, glancing at Ye Tianchen.
"No, the young master instructed that I must personally deliver the Songhua Cake to Old Master Ling, otherwise I will be punished!" Ye Tianchen said firmly.
"Enough with the nonsense, leave the item and get lost..." Li San was already launching his Dragon Claw Hand at Ye Tianchenâs shoulder as he spoke...(To be continued.
