"What should we do then?"
Hao Dahai wasn’t particularly capable to begin with, so in situations , he naturally had to rely on his son’s advice.
"Don’t worry, we’ll react to circumstances as they arise. Let’s wait for news from the Mo Family, then implement a new plan."
Hao Shuai didn’t dare act recklessly this time. After all, Chen Tianlong was indeed odd. Last time, they almost managed to take him down, but it turned out he seriously injured them instead.
"Alright, what about your stepmother’s situation...?"
"Heh, don’t worry. They’ll just try to scare you. As for your stepmother, I guarantee there won’t be any problems," Hao Shuai said with great confidence.
"Master, something bad happened. Someone left a small box in the hall, you must check it out," the steward Mr. Kang suddenly rushed over and said anxiously.
Hao Dahai was puzzled, unsure of what it was, so he said, "Take me to see it."
Everyone rushed to the Xu Family hall.
Sure enough, on a square table in the hall, there was a small box.
Cautiously, Hao Dahai opened it. He wasn’t sure what it was. If it were a bomb, it shouldn’t be that small, as it was only about the size of a palm.
With this question in mind, Hao Dahai slowly opened the box, only to find a severed finger inside. It startled him so much that he almost fell over.
Hao Shuai reacted quickly, stepping over in a flash to support him, barely keeping him steady.
Hao Shuai was puzzled, not knowing what his father had seen, and asked.
"Finger, it’s your stepmother’s finger! Ah... who did this? I will kill them," Hao Dahai was furious like a madman. It was his wife’s finger; you could tell how brutal those people were.
Hao Shuai went over for a glance; indeed, the finger looked like his stepmother’s because he recognized the ring, which was set with a large diamond.
"Dad, don’t worry, I’ll find a way to rescue your stepmother, then strike back hard at those people," Hao Shuai said, feeling a headache. The plan had been going smoothly, but unexpectedly, there was an accident.
Hao Dahai could only pin his hopes on Hao Shuai now.
After returning to the Flying Eagle Gang, Hao Shuai gathered Xu Wei, Zhou Qianghan, and others to have a meeting. They needed to adjust their plans. With the stepmother kidnapped, it wouldn’t be long before it became a threat, so they had to formulate a plan to resolve it if it happened.
Otherwise, if something happened to the stepmother, their father wouldn’t be able to focus on matters concerning the four major families.
Just as they were worrying about the Xu Family matron, the Mo Family also encountered trouble. Mo Shaoyun was kidnapped on the way back to the Mo Family.
The kidnappers were two black-clad figures, and one could easily guess that it was Zhang Xiao and Bao.
Zhou Kang and Li Kai were petrified.
Their car was moving at sixty kilometers per hour when suddenly, a black-clad figure appeared in front, they hit the brakes immediately, but the person just dodged.
It was such an unbelievable thing, just like something out of a superhero movie.
When their car stopped, suddenly two black-clad figures appeared in front. Mo Shaoyun sensed something wrong and quickly floored the gas pedal, but the car did not move an inch.
One of the black-clad figures placed a palm on the front of the car, and no matter how they revved the engine, they couldn’t move.
At this moment, the other black-clad figure directly punched through the glass, reached in, and pulled Mo Shaoyun out through the window, causing him to scream in pain.
Mo Shaoyun’s tears and snot were all over the place, and Zhou Kang and Li Kai were scared shitless, dumbfounded, not daring to speak.
Watching helplessly as Mo Shaoyun was taken away, disappearing from their sight, they finally reacted.
So, the two immediately rushed to the Mo Family to tell Elder Mo what had happened, and he promptly headed to the Hao Family Mansion. Half an hour later, the Hao Family gathered a crowd, as this conspiracy not only involved the Hao Family and Mo Family but also the Xu Family and Liu Family joined in.
"Are you saying that martial artist black-clad figures appeared on the road, forcing your car to stop and then directly pulled Mo Shaoyun out of the window?"
Mo Chou widened his eyes upon hearing Li Kai’s exaggerated account.
A high-speed moving car could be forced to stop, and the window glass shattered to pull someone out, it was truly bewildering.
"Yes, sir, Zhou Kang and I saw it with our own eyes, it can’t be wrong," Li Kai said sincerely.
Elder Mo took a deep breath. The situation was becoming more complicated. Originally having been worried about the Hao Family’s incident, he didn’t expect things to escalate so quickly, without time to respond; it happened to their family.
"Elder Mo, don’t panic. I see these events are linked, done by the same person. Their obvious aim is to confuse us, forcing our attention to rescue the hostages, we shouldn’t be fooled." Read complete version only at noveⅼfire.net
Xu Kan, hearing Mo Shaoyun’s trouble, couldn’t sit idly and spoke calmly after deliberating.
"Elder Xu, what are you saying? Mo Shaoyun is my son, what if something really awful happens to him?" Mo Chou was evidently as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
"Elder Mo, I understand what I’m doing, you should rest assured, Mo Shaoyun will be fine. They’re just trying to scare us, preventing us from focusing on the four major families." Xu Kan explained, "So, let’s split into two groups – one to rescue Mo Shaoyun, and the other to continue as planned."
"Nonsense! If my son suffers any misfortune, I won’t spare you." Mo Chou glared hard at Xu Kan, finding it unimaginable that this old madman would be so ruthless.
He indeed wanted the Mo Family to maintain its position among the four major families, but not at the cost of his son.
"Alright, Old Mo, I’ll send someone to rescue Mo Shaoyun right away, don’t be angry!" Xu Kan frowned, feeling stuck. Mo Chou wasn’t very bright, but when he got angry, he could cause chaos within the Mo Family as well.
After leaving the Mo Family, Xu Kan called Hao Shuai. After all, he was Hao Shuai’s mentor and couldn’t get involved personally in such matters.
Receiving the news, Hao Shuai was somewhat annoyed. However, a request from his mentor couldn’t be refused, so he thought it over and called Ye Xiong of the Celestial Wolf Gang.
He asked Ye Xiong to secretly investigate the black-clad figures’ origins to resolve the issue at its root.
To say the least, Hao Shuai was indeed cold-blooded, remaining calm despite his stepmother being kidnapped, and even focusing on digging into the captors’ background instead of a rescue mission.
At the Lin Family Mansion, Chen Tianlong took a deep breath, realizing Hao Shuai was not an ordinary person, possessing a deep, calculating mind, and was utterly ruthless, even to the extent of disregarding his own stepmother.
"They think we’re easy targets, let’s give them a taste of their own medicine," Chen Tianlong whispered a few words to Bao, who understood immediately, and then he and Zhang Xiao headed to the garage.
Shortly, screams echoed from the garage, where Mo Shaoyun, blindfolded, was naturally unaware of his whereabouts. At that moment, Bao opened Mo Shaoyun’s phone and dialed Elder Mo’s number.
