Chapter 616: Chapter 616: The Rabbit Dies, the Dog is Cooked

Just as Yang Yu had predicted, faced with rumors that Gu Kanghua was exploiting farmers on behalf of the Li Family of Yanjing, the Li Family issued a solemn statement, denying any involvement in the affair and attributing all misconduct to Gu Kanghua’s misuse of the Li Family’s name.

Gu Kanghua was well aware of the Li Family’s intentions and also released a statement, claiming the entire matter was his own doing and that the Li Family of Yanjing had nothing to do with it.

With Gu Kanghua’s personal statement, the doubts surrounding the Li Family swiftly dissipated.

"I’ve done so much; the Li Family shouldn’t do anything more to me, right?" Gu Kanghua slumped despondently in his office armchair, inhaling his cigarette with melancholy.

Thanks to the suppression by Yang’s Chamber of Commerce, his pharmaceutical factory had already begun to lose money.

The remaining one hundred million in liquid assets had been frozen by the court, to settle the damages owed to the farmers, and now he was truly penniless.

Thinking about his diligent service as a pawn for Second Young Master Li, only to end up in such a plight, was simply laughable!

Knock, knock, knock...

There came a knock from outside the office, and Gu Kanghua casually called out, "Come in."

A young and beautiful woman entered, smiling at Gu Kanghua, "Mr. Gu, hello, Second Young Master Li has sent me to see you off."

Gu Kanghua sprung up from the armchair, his eyes widening in alarm, "I’m already in this state, why does Li Chengyang still want to kill me?"

"Only the dead can keep secrets, right?" the Assassin smiled, "Don’t worry, everyone will think you died of exhaustion after our intimate encounter."

The Assassin moved closer to Gu Kanghua, who backed away in a panic, his lips trembling, "Don’t come any closer..."

Knock, knock, knock...

Another knock came from the door, along with someone calling out, "Mr. Gu, I’m Ouyang Xue, here to discuss the compensation for the breach of contract with you."

"Keep quiet," the Assassin warned Gu Kanghua, then walked behind the door and softly opened it.

Another woman walked in, and as Gu Kanghua saw her, his mouth opened as if he wanted to shout something.

But before he could speak, the Assassin stabbed the newcomer with a Dagger from behind!

Whoosh!

The woman swiftly dodged the Assassin’s sneak attack, countering with a Dagger aimed at the assailant’s throat.

A single strike to the throat!

"You’re not Ouyang Xue," Gu Kanghua’s face relaxed slightly, "Who are you, really?"

"I am Yang Rui, a subordinate of Mr. Yang Yu," Yang Rui spoke to Gu Kanghua lazily, "My boss foresaw that you would encounter a calamity soon and specifically instructed me to protect you in secret. Seems like his prediction was right!"

Gu Kanghua eyed Yang Rui with suspicion, "How can I be sure this isn’t all orchestrated by Yang Yu himself, to elicit my gratitude and then use me against the Li Family?"

"If I were my boss, I’d slap you right now," Yang Rui snorted, "While my boss is ruthless, he would never use the lives of his own people for his schemes. Besides, if you don’t believe me, you can try using this Assassin’s phone to test it out."

Gu Kanghua found the logic sound and immediately took the Assassin’s phone, unlocked it with a fingerprint, and dialed Li Chengyang’s number.

The call connected immediately, and Gu Kanghua didn’t speak while Li Chengyang promptly asked, "Is Gu Kanghua taken care of?"

"Second Young Master, I am Gu Kanghua." As soon as Gu Kanghua spoke those words, Li Chengyang instantly panicked, "Gu Kanghua, listen to me..."

"Listen to your excuses? Haha." Gu Kanghua laughed coldly, "Do you think it’s necessary? Second Young Master of the Li Family?"

"I finally understand why your Li Family can never defeat Yang Yu, at least Yang Yu treats those who serve him with respect. As for your Li Family, you only treat people like dogs."

"I, Gu Kanghua, swear that if one day I have the power to take revenge, I will make sure that your Li Family pays the price!"

Gu Kanghua hung up the phone and looked up at Yang Rui, "Having said that, what does Yang Yu want me to do?"

"My boss wants you to go abroad and lay low for a while, until he finds something suitable for you, he’ll make the appropriate arrangements." Yang Rui said, "As for your safety, the boss will also try his best to make arrangements. He saved you for one reason only, no need for me to say more, right?"

"I know." Gu Kanghua said through gritted teeth, "Rest assured, as long as I get the chance to take revenge, I will not miss it!"

At the Yanjing Li Family.

"Idiot!" Li Ruihong slapped his younger son, unable to contain his rage despite usually being composed, "I’ve told you already, you didn’t need to handle the matters with Yang Yu, so why did you interfere?"

"Don’t even mention that you didn’t succeed, even if you had, do you think everyone is a fool? Even without evidence, you can’t stop everyone from suspecting the Li Family."

"When the hare is dead, the hound is cooked, if you keep this up, who will dare to work for our Li Family?"

"From today going forward, if you make any decisions without my consent, don’t blame me for stripping you of all your resources!"

Li Chengyang, his face covered, didn’t dare say more, only managed to acknowledge, "Yes, Dad."

Back in his room, a seething Li Chengyang made a phone call, "Ah Rong, how is the Dragon Slayer Organization’s rebuilding coming along?"

A hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone, "Rest assured, Second Young Master, as long as the payment is good, there will be enough people willing to die for you. Just say the word, and the new Dragon Slayer will be at your command."

"Good," Li Chengyang’s face twisted with menace, "Just wait, there will come a time for you to act!"

That very night, Yang Yu and Ye Yu arrived in Southern Ocean.

There were many Evil Mages in Southern Ocean, and Yang Yu bringing Ye Yu over also matched his expertise.

Ye Yu’s white pupils were very conspicuous, so Yang Yu got her to wear fake lenses to make her white pupils appear black.

The moment they stepped off the plane, they immediately took a taxi and said in English the name of the hotel, "Langsha Hotel, thank you."

"Are the two of you from Xia Country?" the taxi driver, speaking very fluent Xia Guoyu, said, "You don’t need to speak English to me, I understand Xia Guoyu."

"That’s good to know," Yang Yu replied with a smile, "Driver, it’s our first time in Southern Ocean, could you tell us what we should be aware of?"

"Everything else is fine, you just need to watch out for The Matriarch’s people, definitely don’t provoke them," the taxi driver was very talkative, "you might not know who The Matriarch is, just think of them as the biggest gang leader around here."

"Got it, thank you." Yang Yu continued, "I have looked up some tips online, but I always feel that asking the locals is more reliable. Are there any particularly fun places in Southern Ocean?"

"There are lots of fun places, Baya Beach, Riyao Valley, Fire Wind Forest, they are all great," the taxi driver spoke as if he were listing treasures, "If you need a private tour guide, I can introduce one to you, my sister is a guide."
