That night, two assassins quietly sneaked into Zhang Zhibao's residence.
"Who's there?" Zhang Zhibao woke up in shock from his sleep.
Unfortunately, before Zhang Zhibao could react, he was already silenced.
The last big shot in Jiangbei City t a tragic end.
The next morning, when Zhang Zhibao's subordinates saw the scene, they were all terrified.
With Zhang Zhibao's assassination, his subordinates scattered, each fleeing their own way.
Inside the Qian Family's manor.
Qian Jianhua had a smug smile on his face, "With Zhang Zhibao dead, his forces crumbled instantly!"
"I've already secretly contacted those personnel to recruit them into the Qian Family."
"Additionally, I've contacted a group of Sui Wenyuan, Ding Jinghui, and Lu Haokan's subordinates."
"Altogether, there are at least seventy or eighty people! No matter how skilled that kid Chen Xuan is, without Zhang Zhibao's help, he's fighting a losing battle and is dood to die!"
Hmm!
Qian Hongxuan nodded with a smile, "Well done, we can officially declare war on Chen Xuan, and the Ling Family as well! We'll settle it all tonight!"
"Understood, after tonight, our Qian Family will be the only prominent family in Jiangbei City!" Qian Jianhua was extrely excited and full of anticipation for the future.
Soon, the challenge letters were delivered to the Ling Family and Chen Xuan.
Along with it ca the news of Zhang Zhibao's assassination last night.
The entire Ling Family was filled with anxiety and unease.
Ling Yanran was filled with worry and fear, "Grandpa, it seems we were really wrong, we overestimated Chen Xuan."
"He's not the Young Hall Master at all! Zhang Zhibao was assassinated last night, what can he possibly do now?"
"We should also consider retreat; we can't just wait to be killed!"
Sigh!
The old Ling master sighed helplessly, "At this point, do we even have a way out?"
"The Qian Family won't give us any chance to live, we can only fight to the death!"
Ling Yanran was nervous and anxious, "Grandpa, do you think we have any chance of winning?"
"Zhang Zhibao's death must have been related to the Qian Family! And now, with the Qian Family delivering a challenge, wanting to fight to the death with us at the Great Wilderness outside the city tonight, it's clear they're fully prepared."
"With just the strength of the Ling Family, I'm afraid we can't withstand them. Even if Chen Xuan is powerful, without Zhang Zhibao, he's ultimately just one person!"
The old Ling master's expression was uncertain, "I'll contact Chen Xuan first and see what he says."
Not daring to hesitate, he quickly called Chen Xuan, "Mr. Chen, you've probably heard that Zhang Zhibao was killed last night."
"The Qian Family just sent a challenge, wanting to fight to the death with the Ling Family, what do you think we should do?"
Chen Xuan responded softly, "I also received the challenge from the Qian Family. Since Qian Hongxuan insists on seeking death, let's oblige him tonight!"
"May I ask, Mr. Chen, do you have a backup plan?" the old Ling master cautiously asked.
Chen Xuan sneered, "That's not sothing you need to worry about."
"Old Ling master, if you're scared, just stay at the Ling Family tonight; there's no need to go to the Great Wilderness."
With that, he directly hung up the phone.
The old Ling master's expression was uncertain, unable to gauge Chen Xuan's intentions.
From his tone, it seed that Chen Xuan wasn't afraid of the Qian Family at all and didn't take them seriously.
Is he blindly arrogant, or does he really have the confidence to look down on the world?
"Grandpa, I feel that Chen Xuan is too arrogant and hasn't seen the situation clearly yet."
"We can't be sure if Chen Xuan is truly the Young Hall Master and can't rely entirely on him; we need to prepare a backup plan."
Ling Yanran said with a serious expression.
The old Ling master nodded slightly, "You're right!"
"Yanran, transfer the Ling Family's assets to overseas accounts imdiately, and you stay at the Ling Family tonight."
"I'll take the Ling Family's guards to follow Chen Xuan to the Great Wilderness! If we can defeat the Qian Family, it will be a joyous end."
"But if anything unexpected happens, you must quickly leave the Ling Family and live abroad."
Ling Yanran's eyes reddened instantly, "Grandpa, by doing this, you're risking your life!"
The old Ling master waved his hand with a smile, "The Ling Family's business can't be easily given up, and I'm not willing to."
"Besides, I've lived for many years; if sothing happens, it won't be a loss. You're the future hope of the Ling Family, you cannot be lost."
"Just do as I say. Now is not the ti for tears, the big picture is what matters!"
Ling Yanran left with tears in her eyes, secretly transferring the Ling Family's assets.
anwhile, at New Moon Entertainnt Company.
Lin Wanxi was similarly unsettled, especially upon hearing about Zhang Zhibao's assassination last night, which shocked her into a cold sweat.
"Chen Xuan, it looks like the Qian Family is serious this ti!"
"Inviting you to the Great Wilderness for a showdown tonight clearly ans they want to kill you!"
Chen Xuan sneered, "No need to worry, the Qian Family is just making a show of force."
"They're making a big fuss but will end in a dismal failure."
"Just be careful and don't be careless," Lin Wanxi advised. "It's good to be confident, but make sure you're fully prepared; no one can guarantee not to stumble unexpectedly."
Just then, Yang Leshan ca into the office...
