Chapter 1184 - 1182: A Ruthless Man is Not Poison-Free

Chapter 1182: No Poison, No Man

"But now with me by your side, you naturally won’t need to worry much, and I will also always hide in the shadows. If the people of Sky Pavilion really decide to take action against your Tian Family, I will surely help out immediately, absolutely not watching your Tian Family fall into difficult times."

The City Lord immediately spoke.

His relationship with Tian Bufan is excellent, so both emotionally and logically, he couldn’t just stand by and watch Tian Bufan being suppressed by Wang Zhan and others!

Moreover, this situation is entirely a chance. If Sky Pavilion truly perishes under the joint efforts of the people, it’s a great boon for them. After all, there are many factions around Gold City now, and those factions are watching closely.

Although Gold City has indeed set some clauses, it’s difficult to threaten these people. Everything naturally still relies on themselves.

Only by boosting the overall strength of Gold City can it be invincible.

Of course, the City Lord also has his calculated plans. If he can suppress Sky Pavilion at this time and involves the sects nearby to clash with Sky Pavilion people, even if they can completely dismantle the power of Sky Pavilion, everyone will surely take some hit, and those infighting will definitely decline, which is precisely the scenario he wants to see!

Only then can Gold City stand undefeated.

However, Tian Bufan is unaware of these things. In his view, the City Lord’s arrangement is solely due to their friendship, which is as solid as gold.

After hesitating for a moment, he then clenched his teeth and said word by word, "If that’s the case, then I’ll do as you say. Leave everything to me to handle next. I’ll soon contact those sects and gather them all. But I think we should first capture the leader. If we can deal with the master of Sky Pavilion, I believe the Sky Pavilion people will surely fall into chaos."

"Moreover, Sky Pavilion is a huge family with many businesses. I bet internally it’s also complex, and if that mysterious master of Sky Pavilion passes away, everyone will surely be engulfed in a struggle, which would be the perfect time for us to strike!"

Although Tian Bufan never expressed his opinion before, his mind is indeed quite vicious.

And the City Lord glanced at him twice, then gave him a thumbs-up before directly speaking, "I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless in handling things, you’ve thought of countermeasures so quickly, but it fits with my thoughts. I’ve already thought this through, so let’s proceed according to your idea, and Heaven seems to be aiding us, everything is moving in the direction we want to see!"

"What do you mean?"

Tian Bufan quickly asked from the side, obviously not quite understanding the City Lord’s intentions.

The City Lord then smiled and said, "Because the person who just fought with your son is Sky Pavilion’s master, Wang Zhan. And the two beside him are his right-hand men, Dong Tianlei and Xuan Yu!"

"I have some knowledge of matters inside Sky Pavilion. It’s said that Wang Zhan greatly trusts the two, treats them as his confidants. During Wang Zhan’s absence from Sky Pavilion, everything inside Sky Pavilion was fully entrusted to them, and they have the absolute ability to handle matters, keeping Sky Pavilion in perfect order!"

"Although they’ve come to Gold City this time, they’re not here to stir trouble. The reason is that a woman named Zuo Linglong was ambushed, so they’re following the lead of the Thunderbolt Bomb to find some information about it from the auction, quickly uncover the truth of the whole event."

"After all, I’m the master of Gold City, and even those elders in the city or those who think they’re notable need to save face for me, so I can entirely instruct the auction people to guide Wang Zhan and others to a planned location, meanwhile, you contact the sects and have them dispatch strong experts. We’ll prepare the ambush early on and deliver a fatal blow to Wang Zhan!"

There’s no denying that this is indeed a meticulous plan!

But Tian Bufan has already fallen into a shock. He didn’t even know Wang Zhan’s identity, let alone realize the situation has become so serious.

His son has offended the master of Sky Pavilion?

Had he known this earlier, he would have definitely sought Wang Zhan immediately to apologize, so Wang Zhan wouldn’t bear a grudge against the Tian Family, leading the Tian Family into decline!

But looking at it now, the situation isn’t as complex as he imagined, and Wang Zhan hasn’t troubled the Tian Family, which is why he hasn’t shown up!

Thinking about all this, he spoke again, "If that’s really the case, then I think it’s best not to provoke Wang Zhan. After all, we have old grievances, and if new grudges are added, the Tian Family’s situation will become extremely tricky!"

"Moreover, since the City Lord has come out, you can entirely contact the sects nearby. With your strength, I believe they will surely give you face and won’t dare reject your request!"

"City Lord, do you see any problem with my plan?"

The City Lord slightly frowned, his face turned several shades darker. He indeed wanted to seek justice for the Tian Family, regardless of whether it’s Young Master Tian Family’s fault, he wanted to capitalize on this matter and directly confront Wang Zhan!

But looking at it now, this person seems to be backing down at a crucial moment?

Truly annoying!

After hesitating for a moment, he frowned and said, "It seems you’ve really aged, even your courage has become so small, so let’s pretend I never said anything today, but I hope you understand one thing, under a fallen nest, no eggs remain!"

"Even if I’m ready to act against Wang Zhan’s people, as residents of Gold City, you naturally can’t avoid the connections, and if matters truly become troublesome, Wang Zhan’s people naturally won’t let you off easily, particularly those inside Sky Pavilion!"

"Then you’ll have to bear the anger of Sky Pavilion’s people, things might become far more complicated than you imagine! So consider carefully, if you choose not to engage, don’t blame me for not warning you."

Upon hearing this, Tian Bufan sighed but dared not say much, since he could clearly see the City Lord was clearly upset, even disappointed in him.

He knows well where the relationship between them stands, and after so many years passed, they’re no longer the same as before, the feeling has vanished too, and naturally can’t be compared to before, moreover he has now offended the City Lord, which isn’t a good thing. Yet the situation now leaves him wondering what he can do.

Finally, Tian Bufan could only sigh helplessly, keeping silent.

As the City Lord left, he noticed footsteps behind him, narrowing his eyes slightly, then quickly turned his head, his gaze landing on the man behind him.

The man behind still had some marks on his face, walked with a limp, so the footfalls were naturally heavy, which was the main reason City Lord noticed him!

Staring at the man for some time, the City Lord frowned and asked, "Why are you following me?"

The man, naturally Tian Bufan’s son, just recently beaten by Wang Zhan, attempted a failed conversation with Tian Bufan, hence the City Lord’s mood wasn’t great; he naturally had no good impression on the man.

The man hurriedly shook his head, then swiftly approached with respect, saying, "City Lord, I know I shouldn’t come looking for you now, I’m aware of what my father told you, but I just want to show my resolve, I’m definitely not the same as my father, besides, I want to follow your idea and also make amends for myself!"

Hearing this, the City Lord’s lips curled into a wicked smile, he then shook his head, frowning while saying, "Alright, I get your point, but since your father decides not to intervene, even if you want to get involved further, your father won’t give you this chance, so don’t waste this time, hurry back home to recuperate."

It’s clear that the City Lord also doesn’t want to continue wasting his time, hence directly dismisses him.

However, the man ran up to the City Lord with a determined look, gritting his teeth, clenching his fist as he said slowly, "City Lord! You should be aware, my father actually lacks strength, and he could gather so many allies only because of our Tian Family assets!"

"So no matter who becomes the master of Tian Family, those people will not leave easily in the future, I hope the City Lord will do me a small favor, if you can help me ascend to Tian Family’s master, then I’ll ally with you, follow your instructions, and attack Sky Pavilion and Wang Zhan!"

"What’s the City Lord’s opinion?"

The City Lord was slightly surprised; he never imagined this man would have such a treacherous mind?

To ascend, even willing to act against his own father, a complete scoundrel indeed!

But the more so, the more delightful it seemed...
