Chapter 728: Chapter 0728: Old Witch, You Will Die Here
As for what relationship Ye Xunhuan had with Hidden Dragon, naturally, he couldn’t possibly tell Wu Mei, if she wished to know, then she should go and ask Weng Jianbo herself!
If Weng Jianbo were willing to tell Wu Mei, then Ye Xunhuan couldn’t care less.
But would Weng Jianbo possibly tell Wu Mei?
Based on what Ye Xunhuan knew about Weng Jianbo, he definitely wouldn’t tell Wu Mei, or perhaps wouldn’t tell anyone at all!
The relationship between Ye Xunhuan and Hidden Dragon was taboo, and only a handful of people knew about it!
Unless absolutely necessary, no one would mention what sort of relationship exactly existed between Ye Xunhuan and Hidden Dragon!
It was the same with Weng Jianbo, just as it was with the Chief of Hidden Dragon!
Thus, Ye Xunhuan sent Wu Mei on her way with a few words, and as for what Wu Mei thought, that was utterly her own affair, and it had nothing to do with him, Ye Xunhuan.
Similarly, regarding Weng Jianbo’s warning, Ye Xunhuan didn’t take it to heart in the slightest, just as with Shu Mountain.
Ye Xunhuan didn’t take it to heart.
After Wu Mei left, Ye Xunhuan once again plunged into his own games, living quite comfortably.
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan had no idea that the granny from Lin Zhennan’s side had already launched a surprise attack and had even entered Jiangzhong City without making a sound.
After arriving in Jiangzhong City, the granny went straight to find Pei Ximing!
She was quite informed about what happened to Lin Zhetian at the Pei household; simultaneously, she needed to know Lin Zhetian’s current condition and the state of his injuries!
The Lin family had already lost a Lin Zhenbei; if Lin Zhetian were to fall here as well, it would be a devastating and weighty blow to the entire Lin family.
Therefore, upon her arrival in Jiangzhong City, the granny went directly to find Pei Ximing!
Before the granny arrived in Jiangzhong City, Lin Zhennan had specially made a phone call to Pei Ximing, asking him to pick up the granny!
To this, Pei Ximing naturally wouldn’t refuse; he still wanted to kill Ye Xunhuan, after all!
If the Lin family intended to take action against Ye Xunhuan, he was of course willing to provide the Lin family with everything in Jiangzhong City!
However, after seeing the news of Lin Zhenbei’s death today, giant waves immediately surged in Pei Ximing’s heart!
Lin Zhenbei had died just like that, tragically on the streets.
He knew better than anyone what Lin Zhenbei and Ku Mu had been up to last night.
Now that Lin Zhenbei was dead, there was only one possibility: it was Ye Xunhuan who had killed him, but with Lin Zhenbei dead, where was Ku Mu?
Last night, Lin Zhenbei had gone out with Ku Mu, but now with Lin Zhenbei dead, there was no news from Ku Mu, no trace of him anywhere.
This instantly filled Pei Ximing’s heart with a heavy feeling.
Perhaps now Ku Mu was also more likely dead than alive?
Otherwise, Ku Mu wouldn’t possibly be absent; even if he were injured, he should have come to find him, right?
After all, he, Pei Ximing, could be considered a significant figure on this turf.
But Ku Mu’s absence led Pei Ximing to believe that Ku Mu was, at the moment, more likely dead than alive!
This time, to receive the granny, Pei Ximing personally took action, arriving early at the airport.
Pei Ximing stood outside the airport, constantly looking around, but he never caught sight of the granny!
Perhaps it’s more accurate to say that Pei Ximing had no clue who the elderly woman was; Lin Zhennan hadn’t provided him with any photo and had merely told him to pick up grandma at the airport!
Nothing else was mentioned.
As Pei Ximing looked around, an old and deep voice suddenly rang in his ear, "Mr. Pei, are you looking for me?"
Hearing this elderly and deep voice, Pei Ximing immediately turned toward the sound.
The next moment, he saw an old woman with a hunched back standing behind him, quietly observing him!
After his gaze swept over the old woman several times, Pei Ximing asked gently, "Are you grandma?"
While he spoke, his face was filled with confusion.
The old woman in front of him looked just like any average old person, her face covered with wrinkles and age spots, her hands extremely gnarled, quite unremarkable. 𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑝𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝘮
"Mr. Pei didn’t expect that the person he was to receive would be an old wench buried in yellow soil, did you?" Grandma spoke slowly.
Hearing Grandma’s words, Pei Ximing could now be completely sure that the person he was meant to receive today was indeed this old woman!
"Not at all, not at all!" A warm smile slowly appeared on Pei Ximing’s face, "How could you possibly be an old wench buried in yellow soil, Grandma!"
"Since Elder Lin sent you, you must have extraordinary abilities unlike ordinary people!"
Pei Ximing was no fool, he wouldn’t believe Lin Zhennan would send an old fellow to die; this old woman could not be underestimated, or else Lin Zhennan would certainly not have dispatched her!
"Grandma, please!"
Having said that, Pei Ximing made a welcoming gesture to the old woman!
"Mr. Pei, after you," she said.
Pei Ximing didn’t exchange pleasantries with Grandma, and he quickly took her to the car and left the airport.
After getting into the car, Grandma asked Pei Ximing in a soft voice, "Mr. Pei, I wonder how my young master Zhetian is doing now?"
When Grandma mentioned Lin Zhetian, Pei Ximing couldn’t help but sigh deeply, saying with a bitter face, "Grandma, the young master’s condition looks grim. Yesterday, Ku Mu examined him and said the young master has Inner Strength invading his body, damaging his meridians!"
"Although Ku Mu stabilized the young master’s injuries, his health is not looking good, he seems to be in great pain. Ku Mu has instructed us not to touch the young master and not to let anyone else treat him, so I dared not do anything..."
Hearing Pei Ximing’s words, Grandma’s brows slowly furrowed, her wrinkled face showing a trace of anger.
"Yesterday, Elder Lin Zhenbei and Ku Mu went to settle the score with Ye Xunhuan, but who would have thought that this morning the news of Elder Lin Zhenbei’s death came..."
With this, Pei Ximing sighed deeply, "Who would have thought that after meeting Elder Lin Zhenbei just yesterday, we would be worlds apart overnight!"
"And now there’s no word from Ku Mu either!"
"Ku Mu is out of contact?" Grandma immediately caught on and asked.
Hearing Grandma’s words, Pei Ximing nodded without delay, "Right, we’ve lost contact with Ku Mu too. I’ve sent people to search for him, but so far, there’s been no news. I’m afraid Ku Mu has also met with more misfortune than luck..."
Although she had speculated before coming that Ku Mu was very likely to have met a grim fate, possibly like Lin Zhenbei.
But after hearing it from Pei Ximing, a tremor ran through Grandma’s heart!
Not long after Pei Ximing left the airport with Grandma, an old man with silver hair and a ruddy complexion, looking very much the picture of a celestial being, slowly walked out from the airport passage.
After stepping out of the airport, the old man glanced around, looked toward the distant horizon, drew a deep breath, and said slowly, "Old witch, you will meet your end here!"
