Chapter 2457 — The Hidden Right Family's Shock: Su Lengzi Roars
The Blossom Guardian · Page 1 of 3
Su Lengzi had taken a blow he could not avenge. He had just gone to his uncle, hoping the man would stand up for him, but the moment his uncle heard about the background the Right Family kept hidden behind Right Panhu, he hesitated, then told Su Lengzi to swallow his anger. Su Lengzi was seething with pent-up fury.
This resort and ski slope were his family's own territory! In the past, it had always been others who came out the losers. This time it was his turn to lose, and naturally he was not willing to accept it.
When Captain Sun heard Su Lengzi's words, he was immediately caught in a dilemma. On one side was the general manager, on the other Su Lengzi, and the two of them were pulling him in opposite directions. His head swam with the headache of it. But then he reflected that in this resort, the general manager still counted for the most, so Captain Sun said to Su Lengzi, "Brother Lengzi, this was ordered from the general manager's side... you see how it is?"
"Isn't my uncle just afraid the Fire Wolf Gang will hold him to blame later? That's no problem—my cousin and the current head of the Fire Wolf Gang are sworn brothers, and if anything comes of it, I will talk to him!" Su Lengzi roared hysterically. "Captain Sun, you tell him to get out! Otherwise, I will tell my cousin, and you will be getting out right along with him!"
"This..." Hearing Su Lengzi's words, Captain Sun fell silent at once. He knew that Su Lengzi also had a cousin, a formidable figure in his own right, and a sworn brother to the man who had recently risen to head the Fire Wolf Gang's provincial branch. So he hesitated.
Right Panhu furrowed his brows. He had not expected that a matter already settled could run into this kind of complication, all because Kang Jinglong had earlier offended this Su Lengzi.
He decided not to wrangle with these people any longer. He could see it plainly now: with Su Lengzi here, there was no chance of getting them to send a helicopter. He would have to turn to his own family for help.
Once out of the security office, Right Panhu found a phone at the resort's service desk and dialed his family's number directly...
At the Hidden Right Family, the squat bandit had by now returned, cradling the body of the tall bandit in his arms, his face full of grief and bitter fury.
When the Right Family's old master heard that the squat bandit had come back, he was just about to ask whether this mission had succeeded, but then his eyes fell on the tall bandit's corpse in the man's arms, and the expression on his face froze. "Squatty, what is this..."
"Old Master Right, that Wei Zhao is truly formidable. He may only be a peak mid-Earth-Rank expert, but he killed Tall Brother with a single palm strike and left me gravely wounded with another. I am going into seclusion to heal. As for this mission, whoever wants it in the future can take it—I am done!" With that, the squat bandit laid the tall bandit's body on the ground and sped off to his own courtyard to enter seclusion and recover.
He was a retained retainer of the Right Family, not one of the old master's subordinates, so his attitude toward the old master was not particularly respectful. Of course, this matter could hardly be blamed on the old master either: the man had laid out Wei Zhao's strength plainly enough for him. He had taken the mission out of greed for the rare cultivation treasures on offer, so if he had been killed or wounded, he had only himself to blame.
So the matter was closed as soon as it passed. The squat bandit could only swallow his humiliation and go back to heal.
As for the old master of the Right Family, when he saw the scene before him, his soul nearly left his body in fright! Did Wei Zhao really have the power to fight a Heaven-Rank? To gravely wound a peak early Heaven-Rank expert with one palm, and to kill a peak late Earth-Rank expert outright with a single strike?
