Chapter 1449: Chapter 1449: Careful Consideration

"Just relying on the insignificant Xiang Family?" Jiang Feng laughed, a laugh full of mockery and disdain.

He had already given the Xiang Family several chances today. He could see that Xiang Tiandong was sincere and honest, which was why he held back. If the Xiang Family couldn’t take a hint, it could only be said that they were really courting death.

"Insignificant..."

Mo Zixun was speechless, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness in being thoroughly defeated by Jiang Feng.

A family from the Capital City could actually be described by Jiang Feng with the word "insignificant." There’s no one else like him in the world.

"Miss, can’t you talk to this guy properly? He’s just a freak, an outsider!" Su Xiaoxiao said irritably.

Jiang Feng couldn’t be bothered with Su Xiaoxiao’s "discontent" and simply drove leisurely, taking the two of them to the Provincial City.

...

Meanwhile, back on that desolate road, Xiang Tiandong was truly on the brink of collapse.

When they came, they advanced triumphantly, and Ding Feng and others were still lively.

But now, all that was left on the ground were some cold corpses.

To prevent others from discovering and causing a bigger negative impact on the family, he used all his strength to load all the bodies into the car by himself. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Afterward, he tidied up the battlefield a little, cleaning up the most obvious bloodstains.

Having finished everything, Xiang Tiandong was already breathless with sweat dripping from his forehead like beans.

He took out his cell phone and finally dialed his father, Xiang Lun’s, number, his face mournful as he said, "Dad..."

"What’s this, you got it all done so quickly?"

On the other end, Xiang Lun hadn’t heard the wrong tone from Xiang Tiandong. After all, in his subconscious, he also thought this time Xiang Tiandong’s action was foolproof and wouldn’t have any accidents.

"I was dealt with..." Xiang Tiandong really broke into tears, his tears flowed uncontrollably.

"You...what did you say?" Xiang Lun didn’t understand for the moment and asked in astonishment.

At that moment, Xiang Tiandong didn’t hide anything and quickly recounted the entire process of him arriving in Binhai to his father.

No, to be precise, they hadn’t even reached the borders of Binhai when they were dealt with by Jiang Feng, and only he was left, besides a ground full of corpses.

After hearing it all, Xiang Lun was stunned!

His expression was filled with disbelief!

All of Ding Feng’s ten elite family members were dispatched, yet they still ended in failure?!

This is simply unbelievable!

"You’re saying that you guys hadn’t arrived yet, and that boy was already waiting for you on that road. So, who exactly leaked the news?!" Xiang Lun asked through gritted teeth.

"I don’t know!" Xiang Tiandong shook his head with a bitter smile, "I also can’t figure out this question, but the fact is it happened. That guy knows our movements very well, and—"

He wanted to tell his father about Jiang Feng’s insight into some deeper secrets of the Capital City but thought better of it.

After all, those things were too bizarre, and Jiang Feng spared his life. He felt grateful to Jiang Feng from the bottom of his heart and didn’t want to betray him completely.

"It’s really strange; someone could actually place spies within the Xiang Family?!"

Xiang Lun thought differently from Xiang Tiandong; he felt that his family had been greatly provoked and insulted!

"Return immediately! I will use my connections to get the local towing department to help bring Ding Feng and the others’ bodies and vehicles back. Remember, do not publicize this matter for now; the Xiang Family can’t afford to lose face! We’ll discuss everything once you return!" Xiang Lun said coldly.

"No need to discuss anymore..."

Xiang Tiandong smiled bitterly, "Father, let me be honest with you. You weren’t on-site, but I witnessed the whole process personally. This Jiang Feng is not someone our Xiang Family can provoke..."

"Never mind that even after Ding Feng and others gave it their all, they still couldn’t match him. Just his background is worth scrutinizing. He’s already given our family a way out. Let’s learn from this experience and not provoke him again..."

"What do you mean by that!" Xiang Lun burst into anger, "He killed twenty people from the Xiang Family; how can we let that go? Are you scared to death?!"

"No, I’ve come to understand some things very deeply. The downfall of the Lian Family wasn’t an accident, this Jiang Feng he..." Xiang Tiandong explained bitterly.

"Shut up!"

Xiang Lun said coldly, "I see you’ve been frightened, boosting others’ morale while destroying your own! Ding Feng was your grandfather’s favored general; now that he’s dead, do you think your grandfather will let it go easily? Besides, you forgot your grandfather’s instructions to you; this is your best chance to please the Duanmu Family and even the Ying Family. How can you give up so quickly?"

"Dad, I..."

"Shut your mouth!" Xiang Lun interrupted before his son could finish, "Just do as I say! You just need to watch over the scene; I’ll send someone to pick you up. We’ll talk about the rest when you get back!"

"Sigh!"

Hanging up the phone, Xiang Tiandong sat alone by the roadside, filled with melancholy and helplessness.

He also didn’t know how to explain to his father and grandfather, just feeling like the Xiang Family had become embroiled in a gigantic quagmire, making it hard to advance or retreat, and he himself had become a sinner.

...

At the same time.

On a coal freight train heading to the Capital City from the northern border.

Two adults were sitting with satisfaction in an empty train car.

Beside them lay a young woman who had been tortured to death, her body covered in bruises and injuries, an appalling sight!

These two were Wang Shan and Xue Li, two adopted sons from the Netherworld Hall of Hu Jinquan!

And the woman was originally a shepherdess from a village near the border, who was captured by the two on the way while herding sheep, then taken to this freight car and tortured to death!

They had no choice; at a place like the Netherworld Hall, they hadn’t touched a woman in a long time and had to satisfy Hu Jinquan’s perverted desires, which made life unbearable.

And when a person suffers humiliation elsewhere, they will try to find ways to take it out on others. That’s what the two did; the shepherdess unfortunately became their victim.

"Damn it, these years have been so repressive, that old pervert is practically an animal, not treating us like humans. At one point, I even doubted if I was still a man, luckily I just regained my manhood!" Wang Shan said with his chest exposed, leaning against the train car.

"The old thing is definitely unreliable. If it wasn’t for wanting to learn more from him, I would’ve escaped long ago!" Xue Li also snorted coldly.

"We can all understand Dongfang Chi’s feelings, no wonder he didn’t want to return once he got out. He must have felt worse than death under Ji Bu’s torture!" Wang Shan sneered.

"So, once we find him, should we take him back immediately? Although I hate to admit it, the old bastard’s final threat still worries me." Xue Li said.

"Bringing him back is a must! Otherwise, all these years of swallowing insults would be in vain. But since it’s a rare trip outside, we need to make enough profit to make it worthwhile!"

Wang Shan laughed with a meaningful look, "I heard that Dongfang Chi is at the Lian Family. It’s been a long time since I’ve tasted the girls from these noble families. If the Lian Family obediently hands over Dongfang Chi, that’s best. Otherwise—"
