"I’ve been running around the various major families, and during the chaos, I planted listening devices in many of them!" Su Yang chuckled, "You should have investigated my identity and know that I retired from the military, right? The first skill I learned in the army was eavesdropping and surveillance. This morning, when you were persuading the major families, I heard everything loud and clear!"
Lü Wenbang was dumbfounded. He could never have imagined that Su Yang had such tricks up his sleeve.
You see, when he visited the major families, he only discussed this matter with the family heads and the high-ranking mbers. Furthermore, he didn’t disclose his specific plans to those families that were unwilling to deal with Su Yang.
Therefore, only a few people knew about this; just those individuals and the mbers of those seventeen families. In his view, it was utterly impossible for Su Yang to know his plan.
But who could have expected that Su Yang had already prepared for today’s ambush amidst the chaos of last night?
Yesterday, everyone speculated that Su Yang would tragically perish amidst the encirclent of the major families. In their eyes, it was a trendous stroke of luck that Su Yang could barely survive. In such circumstances, how could Su Yang possibly have ti to think about anything else?
Yet, not only did Su Yang survive last night’s fierce battle, but he also managed to secure such a position. Most unexpectedly, in such a disadvantageous situation, he still managed to think ahead and planted listening devices in the major families to target Lü Wenbang!
"Su Yang, you truly are as cunning as a demon!" Lü Wenbang took a deep breath, his voice deep: "However, what’s the use, even if you know all this? With the seventeen families of the Capital City uniting to attack your Shen Family Courtyard, do you think those people have any chance of surviving?"
"Lü Wenbang, you really think highly of those seventeen families!" Su Yang spoke loudly, "Do you think they would really engage in a deadly battle with the desperados from the dungeons? True, the power of the seventeen families could indeed exterminate those people. But have you considered what price these seventeen families would have to pay if they killed everyone in the Shen Family Courtyard? And after paying such a devastating price, what would their position in Capital City beco?"
Lü Wenbang’s eyebrows furrowed; these were things he had certainly considered.
"These seventeen families indeed wouldn’t engage in a bloodbath with those people, but trapping them inside the Shen Family Courtyard without letting them out is still sothing they can achieve!" Lü Wenbang stated coldly, "As for Lü Donglin, I have hired seventy-three assassins to kill him. These assassins are all top-notch experts; so of them have even ambushed and killed a Terrestrial Immortal. It’s hard to say whether he can even survive, so you don’t need to hope that he can co to your rescue!"
"Are you so sure that those assassins can ambush Lü Donglin?" Su Yang countered.
"How about it, do you think just because you knew my plan in advance and notified Lü Donglin that he could escape?" Lü Wenbang laughed loudly, "Those assassins have already intercepted Lü Donglin and his people. I received their notification before I ca to attack you. Su Yang, you indeed have unparalleled cunning, but unfortunately, ti does not wait for you. This is the Capital City, too many people want to kill you here, in the face of absolute power, your so-called cunning is aningless!"
"Then you also need to possess absolute power!" A hearty voice followed, and suddenly soone burst out from the car behind and stood in front of Su Yang.
Seeing this person, Lü Wenbang’s expression drastically changed, he said solemnly: "Lü Donglin!?"
"Family Head Lü, long ti no see." Lü Donglin smiled faintly, "You’ve been hiding for such a long ti, I thought I wouldn’t get the chance to kill you myself! It would have been a great pity if that were the case."
Lü Wenbang’s expression turned icy. Lü Donglin’s unexpected appearance here was completely beyond his expectations, what exactly was going on?
"How are you here?" Lü Wenbang asked sternly, "Shouldn’t you be in Beishan Forest, ambushed by those assassins? Didn’t they already lay the trap for you?"
Lü Donglin laughed, "I never went to Beishan Forest at all, those ambushed by the assassins were just my n, not including !"
"How could that be?" Lü Wenbang exclaid in disbelief, "They clearly said you were there!"
"The assassins you hired are really unprofessional," Lü Donglin chuckled, "I found soone with a similar build and appearance to mine, had him wear my clothes and sit in the car without getting out. Your assassins mistook him for . Assassins of such caliber attempting to ambush a Terrestrial Immortal?"
Lü Wenbang’s face turned extrely sour, he hadn’t anticipated such a scenario. Everything that happened today was already out of his planned scope, making him incredibly uneasy.
However, looking at the people by his side, Lü Wenbang felt sowhat reassured.
Although the situation was completely unexpected, his side’s strength was still firmly superior to that of Su Yang’s; they still had the upper hand.
"Su Yang, is this your stratagem?" Lü Wenbang spoke coldly, "Lü Donglin wasn’t ambushed, so what? What could he possibly do by following you? Since Lü Donglin didn’t die at the hands of those assassins, then I will personally send him to his death. If he had died at their hands, I would have had so regrets!"
Su Yang laughed, "Family Head Lü, after all is said and done, you still haven’t guessed, who I called just now!"
Lü Wenbang’s expression suddenly changed. Lü Donglin’s sudden appearance had surprised him so much that he had even forgotten about this. He only now rembered that Su Yang did indeed make a call. But to whom did Su Yang call? Could it be that he had other people?
"You... who did you call?" Lü Wenbang’s voice trembled.
He had just spoken when he suddenly furrowed his brows and quickly looked towards the distance.
The people around him also felt the disturbance and looked up.
Soon, a group of people rushed out from around the corner and quickly headed their way, encircling them from the outside.
Leading them was a tall man, none other than Zhao Hu Zi, whom Su Yang had rescued from the dungeon yesterday.
"Master Su, we’re here!" Zhao Hu Zi shouted loudly, "What should we do? Kill them all or what?"
Lü Wenbang surveyed the gathered individuals; his expression beca uglier.
The group brought by Zhao Hu Zi numbered around thirty to forty people, and crucially, these were all extrely formidable individuals.
Among them, Lü Wenbang had seen several before; all were renowned experts, each possessing imnse strength.
As for the others, though he had never t them before, the imposing aura emanating from them allowed him to surmise that these were no ordinary individuals.
