Chapter 347: Confronting Sakura

Witnessing the shocking scene, Qian Laoliu was still shaken and pleaded for punishment from Chen Qingdi.

"I failed to protect the Madam. Please punish me, Sir!"

Chen Qingdi clapped him on the shoulder. "Liu, don't be upset. You all were just decoys to confuse the assassins. I didn't tell you beforehand because I was afraid you'd give the game away, creating an opening for the enemy. The truth is, Bodyguard Team Two moved the Madam to another location long ago. She's perfectly fine."

After speaking, not only did he not punish them, but he gave each of them five hundred thousand dollars and told the security brothers to split it and keep up the good work.

Liu Xiaoli, having been thoroughly humiliated, gritted her teeth and said.

"Chen Qingdi, you're despicable! How dare you trick us like this! You'll die a horrible death!"

Chen Qingdi sneered. "I was suspicious of you the moment you appeared by Mingyue's side. That's why I sent you to pick up that package for her. After you left, we had already moved Mingyue. I didn't expect you to be so eager for results that you'd actually attack a store mannequin. These mannequins cost one hundred thousand each. You're going to pay for them!"

"You're extorting me!"

Tang San patted her cheek. Noticing her face was now tilted to one side, he slapped the other side twice. Only when both sides were equally swollen did he stop.

"Remember to buy a few pounds of pig brains next time to supplement your own. It's a miracle you've survived this long as an assassin."

He ordered Qian Laoliu to drag her away and thoroughly investigate her identity—dead or alive.

Just then, news arrived. The men in black and the people who showed up at the hospital later were all from Japan, but their identities were currently unknown.

What was more alarming was that although Liu Xiaoli had been captured, she had managed to bite through a poison sac hidden in a decayed tooth and commit suicide. After all that effort, they hadn't gotten a single thing out of her. Qian Laoliu couldn't help but feel dejected.

Chen Qingdi summoned another vice president from the Mingyue Group's security division, Li Feng. He had him take an elite team to raid an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city.

This made Qian Laoliu even more dejected. "Boss, it's only been a moment. How do you already know where those guys are?"

Chen Qingdi patted his shoulder again. "Go order a banquet from the hotel. We'll reward the field team in a little while."

Liu gave a wry smile. "Why aren't you sending me?"

Chen Qingdi chuckled. "Didn't you just earn five hundred thousand dollars? I can't let you make all the money. It's time to let Li Feng's team earn some."

Then, Li Feng got ready to depart. Tang San spoke to him earnestly.

"Those people are ruthless desperados. When you find them, capture them alive if you can. If you can't, dead is fine too. Remember, don't let a single one slip through the net."

Li Feng didn't understand why, but after accepting the order and leaving, he did indeed find a stronghold belonging to Japan.

From the outside, it looked no different from an ordinary warehouse, just abandoned. There were no sentries posted. Just as Li Feng led his men inside, he suddenly discovered forty to fifty people within.

The one in the lead was a short, fat man, about four-foot-nine. Even the Samurai Sword in his hand was a head taller than him.

Seeing his opponent's appearance, Li Feng couldn't help but let out a snort of laughter.

"Hey, shorty, you got a name?"

The man was quite arrogant. "I am Hengye Wulang, leader of the Fifth Squad of Japan's Sankou Group. A stupid pig like you thinks you're worthy of opposing our Great Sakura Empire?"

Li Feng sneered. "In a little while, you're going to be Corpse Wulang!"

"Baka yarō! I'll chop you stupid pigs to pieces!"

He was sure his one-slash-kill technique would work, but Li Feng casually blocked it.

"With your clumsy pig-like skills, you dare show off in front of your grandpa?"

Hengye Wulang apparently understood some Dragon Country language. "You're misusing the idiom! It's clearly 'three-legged cat'!"

Li Feng was completely dismissive. "With a face like yours, do you deserve to be called a cat?"

Facing this mockery, Hongye Wulang wasn't the least bit angry. He pointed to his own head.

"Whether someone is a pig isn't about physical strength, it's about what's in here. If this isn't smart, you're a pig no matter how handsome you are. For example, your President Chen!"

Beifeng listened impatiently. "Li Donggua, are you done farting yet?"

Hengye Wulang sneered.

"Your chairman is impressive, I'll give him that. He found our hiding place, but he doesn't know that another team of our brothers has already found his wife Shen Mingyue's location and is on its way to assassinate her. For every foot the dao rises, the devil grows ten. What are you gonna do, bite me?"

Li Feng sneered. "Damn you! Eat this!"

He knew the enemy had sent another team after Shen Mingyue and was extremely worried for her safety, but if he didn't deal with these scumbags quickly, how could he possibly get back to the hospital to provide backup?

The man's Samurai Sword danced in a blur of light. He bounced around Li Feng like a punctured rubber ball, lunging forward and leaping back. If Li Feng hadn't received special training and had lightning-fast reflexes, he would have been taken down by this shorty long ago.

Seeing this guy hopping around like a live monkey, Li Feng was instantly annoyed.

He reached to his waist and pulled out a Flying Knife. Just as he saw the shorty—ah, Hengye Wulang—leap toward him again, the Flying Knife shot from his hand and struck the man square in the throat.

His throat was pierced by the knife, but he didn't die immediately. He stared at Li Feng in disbelief, wanting to say something, but his vocal cords were destroyed and no words came out. He died utterly unconvinced.

Li Feng pulled the Flying Knife out and put it away, then sneered at the dying Hengye Wulang.

"You should know of my ancestor, Li Xunhuan. The Li Flying Knife never misses its mark!"

Hongye Wulang cursed himself for provoking this kid, and with a thread of regret, he departed from this world.

At that moment, his subordinates were also quickly wiped out.

Li Feng, still worried about Shen Mingyue, resolved the trouble there and immediately returned to the hospital, where he found Chen Qingdi in his office.

"That bastard Hengye Wulang said they were going to cause trouble for Sister-in-law. I don't know if you're prepared for it here."

Chen Qingdi was very grateful for his concern.

"Thanks for thinking of it. I actually already secretly dispatched my top deputies to personally protect Mingyue's family. Those scumbags really did find Mingyue's temporary apartment, but they didn't even last a few rounds. Chen Yuan and his team beat them until their heads looked like pig heads, and then they were thrown in the slammer. They probably won't be getting out for at least twenty years."

It was only then that they suddenly felt this man before them was truly impossible to figure out.

How did he know someone was coming to attack Mingyue's hospital room, and how did he have the foresight to prepare a mannequin from a clothing store as a replacement ahead of time?

Just imagine, if it hadn't been for that mannequin, Shen Mingyue would have likely met a terrible fate.

Chen Qingdi didn't want to dwell on these worries. Instead, he praised Li Feng a few more times and promised that one day, he would make him the president of the Mingyue Group's European division.
