Chapter 54 A Powerful Enemy Attacks
Fu Jing's feelings for Wang Shanlong run deep, stemming from a chance encounter ten years ago. The handsome and dashing Wang Shanlong, like a prince, accidentally entered the dressing room and bumped into Fu Jing, who was trying on clothes. At the time, she was still in high school and fell deeply in love with Wang Shanlong.
Having failed to control Zhuo Yang, Fu Jing felt deeply sorry for the trust placed in her by the eldest brother of the Wang family, so she secretly vowed to regain his trust.
Wang Shanlong smiled elegantly and said, "Jingjing, you have actually done your best. The mistake was not yours, but my underestimation of Zhuo Yang's patience. I admire him greatly in this respect. Not everyone can endure for more than ten years."
"Ten years of silence, then a stunning debut—that's a perfect description of reality!"
His understated elegance made Fu Jing's eyes sparkle; if she were by Wang Shanlong's side, she probably would have already pounced on him.
"Brother Wang, don't worry, I'm confident I can kill Zhuo Yang this time!" Fu Jing suddenly gritted her teeth. It was Zhuo Yang who ruined the perfect image of the eldest brother of the Wang family, and I must get rid of him!
In the video, Wang Shanlong remained elegant: "Better safe than sorry. I will send a member of the Wang family to assist you. He is currently in Lingzhou."
Fu Jing obediently agreed, and then reluctantly ended the video call.
“Brother Wang is diligently cultivating, and Zhuo Yang is the culprit who disrupted his state of mind.” Fu Jing stood up, her face so dark it seemed about to drip water. “Kill him, and Brother Wang’s state of mind will be perfected!”
Fu Jing thought for a moment, then picked up her phone and dialed a number.
Half an hour later, the housekeeper invited a woman with gray hair and dressed in a black dress into the living room.
Fu Jing ran downstairs quickly, exclaiming in surprise, "Grandma, you came so fast! I just hung up the phone and you're already here."
The white-haired woman was Fu Jing's great-aunt, named Fu Yayue. Although she had a head of white hair, her skin was exceptionally good. At first glance, she looked like a young girl deliberately dressed up as an old woman, and she looked to be only about thirty years old.
Fu Yayue and Fu Jing were on good terms. After chatting for a few minutes, she said in a deep voice, "Jingjing, there's something I need to tell you. The vengeful ghost we kept in Penglai Pavilion has been taken away!"
"What?" Fu Jing's eyes widened in surprise. "Grandma, it took you ten years to completely subdue that vengeful ghost. Who has such great abilities to subdue her?"
Fu Yayue said with a dark face, "I'm not sure exactly who it is, but I heard a name from the security guards at Penglai Pavilion: Zhuo Yang. Do you know him?"
"Zhuo Yang?" Fu Jing was immediately shocked and asked incredulously, "Grandma, you said that the person who subdued your vengeful ghost was Zhuo Yang?"
"Yes, it must be him." Fu Yayue became furious, and a trace of black energy appeared on her face, making her look like a vengeful ghost.
Fu Jing was a little scared, but thankfully her great-aunt wouldn't hurt her, so she quickly said, "Great-aunt, isn't this Zhuo Yang very young? He always acts like he doesn't care about anything but is secretly putting on airs?"
"Judging from the security guard's tone, it should be him." Fu Yayue asked doubtfully, "Do you know this person?"
"I know him, of course I know him!" Fu Jing's anger flared at the thought of Zhuo Yang. "Grandma, you don't know, this person is extremely patient and stoic, pretending to be an ordinary person for over ten years right under the nose of the eldest brother of the Wang family..."
She recounted Zhuo Yang's behavior in detail, growing angrier with each word, until her face turned deathly pale.
Fu Yayue snorted: "Jingjing, the Wang family is the backer of our Fu family. Zhuo Yang's matter cannot be delayed. The sooner we kill him, the sooner our Fu family can hold our heads high and make the Wang family look at us with more respect. There is no time to lose. I will go to the Dongfang family tonight and kill Zhuo Yang."
Their intelligence was still limited to the fact that Zhuo Yang was staying at Dongfang's house.
"It would be best to slaughter the Dongfang family completely, then our Fu family will have one less competitor!" Fu Jing said sinisterly, her exquisite face full of ferocity.
Fu Yayue considered for a moment and nodded, saying, "I will try to keep things clean. Nowadays, cultivators are emerging one after another, and there are also many idiots who have awakened the Five Elements abilities and are causing trouble everywhere. The Dragon Court simply cannot take care of them. I will just pretend to be an awakened one and cause trouble."
Fu Jing smiled cruelly, "Grandma, don't be in such a hurry. Brother Wang said there is one who is enshrined in Lingzhou. It would be safer to wait for him to act together."
"There's no need. Relying too much on external forces will make the Wang family look down on our Fu family." Fu Yayue said sternly and quickly left the villa.
Fu Jing saw him off at the door, but still felt uneasy because Zhuo Yang had performed a bit too well. So she dialed the phone number of the Wang family's patron in Lingzhou.
"Beep...beep..."
Before the call could be connected, the shrill ringtone of a cell phone came from not far away.
Fu Jing looked over in confusion and saw the butler leading the way to a middle-aged man. The man was dressed in a trendy way, like a street musician.
"Miss, this gentleman claims to be a retainer of the Wang family." After the butler finished speaking, he saw Fu Jing's gaze and quickly stepped back.
Fu Jing personally invited the uncle into the villa.
"Little girl, don't bother. There's something I need to tell you first." The uncle was Yuan Chen. He looked at Fu Jing with a suspicious expression, which he quickly concealed. "Zhuo Yang is a tough nut to crack. I almost didn't escape from him today!"
"What?" Fu Jing was stunned.
Liu Yimin was also a retainer of the Wang family. It is said that he was killed by Zhuo Yang. Then the Wang family sent a retainer with higher cultivation. How come he still couldn't beat Zhuo Yang?
Based on this calculation, how powerful must Zhuo Yang be?
Yuan Chen didn't want to go into details, and said with a stern face, "I came here to give you a heads-up. Zhuo Yang is probably also at the Golden Core stage, and he has a way to hide his cultivation level so that others will underestimate him. Then he can easily play dumb and take advantage of others. If your Fu family has any plans, you must be careful."
"We've already taken action!" Fu Jing was startled and jumped up to dial her great-aunt's number, but couldn't get through. She was so anxious that she paced around in circles.
"Something went wrong?" Yuan Chen stood up impatiently. "It seems your Fu family's strength is still a bit weak. I have to step in to save them. Do your family members have any secret codes for communication? Tell me, so that your own people don't end up making a mess of things."
"Yes!" Fu Jing composed herself and made a special hand gesture.
Yuan Chen kept the details in mind, asked for the exact location, and then left the Fu family villa.
He leaped into the night and disappeared. Instead of heading straight for the Dongfang family's residence on the eastern coast of Lingzhou, he stood on a large tree, looking down at the brightly lit Lingzhou City.
“The Fu family went to the Dongfang family to cause trouble, but our Wang family’s informants clearly saw that the car that returned to the Dongfang family was empty. Zhuo Yang didn’t go back to the Dongfang family at all.”
After thinking for a long time, Yuan Chen suddenly snapped his fingers: "I understand. The villa that the Dongfang family gave to Zhuo Yang has been renovated, and he has moved out!"
"Perfect timing! I'll raid your hideout, burn your house down, and ruin your mental state first!"
With a chuckle, he leaped and disappeared into the night.
