Chapter 514: Chapter 570: Scapegoating Chapter 514: Chapter 570: Scapegoating After making the decision, Chen Nan did not act imdiately.
Instead, he made a phone call to Du Lang and asked him to imdiately investigate where the people sent by the Divine Sky Sect to Ningjiang had gone.
Perhaps, with the intelligence capabilities of Sky Team, they could find so clues.
However, contrary to his expectations, when Du Lang called back, his tone unusually solemn, “Brother, the Divine Sky Sect is known for its strict organization. This ti they sent people to Ningjiang, and they’ve been extrely secretive about their movents. It’s difficult for us to fully ascertain their whereabouts for the ti being.”
The Sky Team’s intelligence network couldn’t track the movents of the Divine Sky Sect this ti?
Chen Nan was sowhat surprised.
If the opposition was one of the top Cultivation Sect organizations in the country, it was understandable that the Sky Team couldn’t track their movents in a short period of ti.
But even if the Divine Sky Sect was formidable, they were only arrogant within this province. How could they possibly evade the Sky Team’s surveillance?
While he was pondering, Du Lang added, “Actually, it’s not that our intelligence personnel are incompetent. It appears that there’s a shadow of a Martial Arts family behind the Divine Sky Sect’s actions this ti. These reclusive families, who have maintained their lineage for hundreds of years, possess power not to be underestimated…”
With these words from Du Lang, Chen Nan instantly understood.
Those top Martial Arts families, with decades of accumulation, had underground influence not less than so major Cultivation Sects. If they were the ones pulling the strings, then it was normal for the Sky Team’s intelligence network not to uncover the truth in a short ti.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Nan gave a cold smirk to Scarface, “Is there a hidden room or sothing like that in this villa?”
“Yes, there is!”
Scarface had nearly given up hope, facing a killer like Chen Nan. He only hoped that after he was killed, his family wouldn’t be implicated.
However, when he heard Chen Nan say he was willing to bring him to retrieve the Tiger Talisman, Scarface naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
Thus, whatever Chen Nan asked, he answered imdiately, leaving nothing out, fearing that a slow response might further infuriate him.
“Swish…”
Chen Nan suddenly moved as fast as lightning, knocking out those few Third Level Qi Dao followers, then turned with a cold smirk, “Now, quickly throw your guys into the hidden room to prevent any complications.”
Scarface did as instructed.
After sorting everything out, Chen Nan continued to give instructions, “Think of a way to ensure that for the next half-day, no one else in this villa cos looking for you.”
Scarface quickly shook his head, his face full of panic as he explained, “I don’t need to do anything extra. As long as I don’t actively contact anyone, no one will definitely co looking for us. I told you before, our Sect operates in such a way that each Hall Master leads a few disciples, and they do not interfere with each other.”
“Just a Sect, and yet so much fuss!”
Chen Nan sneered, nodding lightly, “Then let’s head out now.”
Actually, according to Scarface’s explanation, since the Divine Sky Sect mbers operated independently, poisoning Scarface would have been the most convenient option. But since he was the enemy, Chen Nan naturally couldn’t completely trust his words. Keeping Scarface by his side also minimized the risk of deception.
After clearing the scene, Chen Nan then grabbed the back of Scarface’s collar and took a detour out of the villa through the back mountain.
Returning to the urban area, after re-establishing contact with Li Lin and obtaining the exact address of the big boss who had the Tiger Talisman, Chen Nan imdiately headed there.
Tianya Sea View, a well-known villa district in Ningjiang, was also the target of Chen Nan’s trip.
The forr influential backer of Li Lin, the leader who had accepted his bribe, the mayor of Ningjiang City, Huang Tian, resided in this district.
Unlike ordinary residential areas, the security asures at Tianya Sea View were particularly strict, as the residents were either rich or noble. Ordinary people couldn’t just walk through the gate without a thorough questioning.
Chen Nan looked at the scar-faced man beside him, who understood imdiately and stepped forward to check in.
Previously, their Divine Sky Sect had entered the place using forged identities. Thus, visiting again posed no difficulty at all.
After bypassing the beautifully luxurious landscape, Scarface led Chen Nan to a villa with an exaggeratedly large plot of land.
After knocking, there was surprisingly no response. Chen Nan’s face darkened. Just as he was wondering whether Mayor Huang was at work and not at ho, he suddenly sensed sothing amiss.
It was as if soone was secretly watching him.
Confident in his martial artist instincts, Chen Nan discreetly surveyed his surroundings. As soon as he looked up, he spotted a cara under the eaves of the villa, aid directly at him.
Damn, there was soone in the house who was observing him through the surveillance system, most likely that Mayor Huang.
Chen Nan’s expression turned icy in an instant.
Seeing his expression, Scarface followed his gaze and also noticed the surveillance cara, quickly explaining, “Maybe this Huang recognized , so he deliberately didn’t open the door.”
Chen Nan didn’t bother to respond. After checking that no one was paying attention to him, he directly climbed over into the villa’s backyard.
Indeed, the backyard door wasn’t locked. After giving Scarface a cold glance, he strutted into the house.
When Chen Nan climbed in from the backyard, Mayor Huang might also have seen everything clearly through the surveillance.
So just as he entered the hallway, a middle-aged man with an air of authority ca down the spiral staircase from the second floor.
Giving Chen Nan a displeased look, Huang Tian turned to Scarface, “What’s going on? Didn’t I tell you guys that I don’t know anything about that ‘Tiger Talisman’…”
Before he could finish, Chen Nan waved his hand dismissively and interrupted arrogantly, “Mayor Huang, saying that kind of spoils the fun. We from the Divine Sky Sect an very sincerely.”
Yes, the Divine Sky Sect.
Before coming to claim a debt from this Ningjiang big shot, Chen Nan had already decided to use the na of the Divine Sky Sect to teach Mayor Huang a lesson on how to behave!
If it wasn’t for his breaking promises—having clearly accepted bribes from Li Lin but then for his own selfish desires denying recognition of the person—why would Li Xiao have been kidnapped?
Since such a major figure could stoop so low as to deny his own actions, Chen Nan didn’t mind using the na of Divine Sky Sect to to let him know that one shouldn’t be too greedy.
Moreover, this also served as his strategy to kill two birds with one stone by framing the Divine Sky Sect.
Now having dealt with Mayor Huang, the ruler of Ningjiang City, Chen Nan didn’t believe he would swallow this insult. Ultimately, when Huang Tian decided to unleash his anger, he would naturally target the Divine Sky Sect.
Hearing Chen Nan’s words, a fascinating expression crossed Scarface’s face.
Although he was a brute, he had guessed Chen Nan’s intentions, the problem was that he didn’t dare to make it clear to Huang Tian!
As for Huang Tian, he furrowed his brow and sneered coldly at Chen Nan, “What are you joking about, what does the sincerity of Divine Sky Sect have to do with ?”
“It seems I’ve been too polite. Mayor, perhaps you prefer sothing rougher.”
Chen Nan rubbed his fists, his figure flashed, and he directly grasped Huang Tian’s neck, his chilling tone filled with a lethal aura, “Do you want to die or live?”
