Chapter 103: Investigate this person, go and check, must be quick!

  After Mr. He left, Xi Chong returned with a strange expression again and sat quietly for a while. As he spoke in a casual tone, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became gloomy.

  After all, having reached this position, Lin Zhong and others would not easily relax even in private gatherings, laughing and scolding like ordinary people.

  They sat for a while, and then several people in the forest began to get up and bid farewell. After all, their intention was only to help Xu Yu hold the scene, to warn or alert him, so that Xu Chong would know some depth.

  Since the purpose has been achieved, it's also time to bid farewell. Even Luo Zichao, who had a different intention, felt uncomfortable staying after seeing Xu Yu's energy, and only thanked Xu Yu on his way out.

  Even after several people left, Xu Chong's face still had a strange expression. Although he wanted to ignore Xu Yu, the events of tonight were too shocking.

  He couldn't help but look at her.

  Xu's mother immediately pulled Xu Yu over and asked, "What is going on here?" which left Xu Yu stunned and unsure of how to explain.

  It wasn't easy, but Xu Yu finally managed to brush off his mother's inquiries and was about to leave. In reality, however, his mother had been insisting that he stay, after all, this was his home. But on this matter, not only did Xu Chong not speak up, Xu Yu also shook his head firmly.

  Mrs. Xu had no choice but to give up and catch up with them to see them off. Before chasing after them, she even gave Xu Chong a meaningful look, hoping he would speak up and ask Xu Yu to stay or at least walk him out the door. However, facing this look, Xu Chong's expression turned stern as he withdrew his gaze from Xu Yu, shook his head, and sat back down on the couch, refusing to look at Xu Yu again. This only fueled Mrs. Xu's anger, but she still chased after them.

  However, just as the two of them walked to the entrance of the residential compound, another figure suddenly appeared from outside. When he saw the two of them, he was taken aback for a moment before smiling and saying, "Aunt Lan, Brother Yu."

  It was Li Dang who came, and this place could also be considered half his home. Although after that incident, Xu Chong's attitude towards him had cooled down a lot, and Xu Mu didn't even bother to see him. He had originally wanted to help Xu Mu move house by picking her up, but was directly refused by the other party. Today, the Xu family had just moved to Linzhou, so he naturally wouldn't miss the opportunity to come over and take a look.

  But Li Dang didn't expect to meet Xu Yu here either. Isn't the old man supposed to be avoiding him?

  Seeing Li Dang again, Xu Yu had calmed down a lot, with only a hint of mockery at the corner of his mouth, while Mrs. Xu directly turned her head away with a cold face, "Xiao Yu, I'll help you hail a taxi."

  "It's okay, I can handle it myself, you go back." Xǔ Yú smiled and waved his hand, walking further ahead to the side of the road.

  Seeing the attitude of the two, Li Dang didn't mind either. He also knew that Mrs. Xu doted on Xu Yu too much. After what happened, Xu Yu was even driven out of the house by Xu Chong, causing them to be separated from their mother and son. She must not like herself, but in the Xu family, as long as Xu Chong appreciates him and values him, that's enough.

  However, seeing Xu Yu here, Li Dang's mind also quickly began to think, is Xu Chong at home? If not, then it doesn't matter, but if he is, it seems a bit troublesome.

  With a strange thought in mind, Li Dang watched as Mrs. Xu and Xu Yu stopped the carriage, before he stepped forward to head inside, but just as he asked the gatekeeper and walked towards the Xu family's new home, he hadn't even knocked on the door when he suddenly heard bursts of loud laughter coming from inside the house.

  That voice was Xu Chong.

  In an instant, Li Dang's face changed color. Xu Chong was at home, and he was still smiling? Moreover, it was right after Xu Yu had just left?

  However, despite the sudden change in atmosphere, Li Dang quickly rang the doorbell. Soon, the laughter inside the room came to an abrupt halt, and a figure with a clearly displeased and embarrassed expression hastily opened the door. When he saw that it was Li Dang standing outside, his embarrassment dissipated, and he calmly said, "It's you, come in."

  Li Dang's face also showed a sincere smile.

  But it wasn't until half a time later that he walked out of the room again, and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and his whole face sank into darkness.

  "Damn it, his attitude towards Xu Yu has indeed slackened."

  With a gloomy face, Li Dang felt a sense of crisis while walking. Why did Xu Chong hide in the room and laugh earlier? It's known that the old man is extremely strict, could it be that this guy has achieved something again?

  No way, he absolutely cannot let his attitude towards Xǔ Yú change, especially after Xǔ Chóng Gāo's promotion.

  If everything happens as it should, then nothing will be too late.

  Under emotional pressure, Li Dang walked quickly while taking out his phone, "Qi Nan, it's me. It seems I need your help this time."

  ……

  Linzhou, Night Splendid Club.

  In a luxurious villa, he was holding and caressing a charming woman named Qi Nan, but his expression gradually changed to one of playfulness as he listened to the conversation on his phone.

  Then, he pushed away the woman in his arms and gestured for her to leave.

  Zi Nan slowly hung up the phone and then said to another young man in his thirties in the room, "Lu Chuan, I have something for you to do tonight."

  "En." A young man named Lu Chuan, however, was a robust and fierce-looking man with a small scar on his neck. As Qi Nan spoke, Lu Chuan stood up straight and respectfully said.

  "Go to Linzhou East District and find someone to beat me up, but not too hard. The injury should be visible at a glance. Then, make a receipt and have him sign it, saying it's his debt from losing a bet. If he doesn't sign, give him some more color to look at!"

  Although Zhen Nan had only met Xu Yu once until yesterday, because Li Dang had long been thinking of dealing with Xu Yu, one day was enough for him to find out Xu Yu's general situation on the surface.

  "Alright." As soon as he heard this, Lu Chuan suddenly pushed off with both hands, making a crisp cracking sound, and his eyes flashed with a fierce light. As the bodyguard who followed Qi Nian from Australia to the mainland, his strength was not to be underestimated either. Even in the entire Australian Qi family, he had a certain status. The Qi family was actually a martial arts family that had moved from the mainland to Australia decades ago.

  In a capitalist society, those with strong armed forces can actually make a fortune more easily abroad than at home. Old Master Qiu is an example of this, as he first relied on his own two hands to fight his way to success in Melbourne's underworld before turning to legitimate business and eventually gaining influence over Australian politics.

  Relying on the Lu family's immense power in Australia, not only Qi Nian, but also Lu Chuan, are not afraid to cause trouble inland. To put it simply, even if they caused trouble and made a big mess, as long as the Qi family exerted their influence, they could get the Australian authorities to intervene. Once it escalated into an international incident, what problem couldn't be resolved?

  Not to mention such a trivial matter.

  "Well, that's it...". Qi Nann smiled again and nodded, then detailed the address of Xu Yu, took out his mobile phone, let him see a photo, before letting Lu Chuan leave.

  It wasn't until Lu Chuan disappeared outside the package house that Qi Nan finally burst out laughing.

  It turns out that this time, his trick is quite simple. However, based on Li Dang's description of Xu Chong's temperament, if he knew that Xu Yu had contracted a gambling habit after leaving Ningcheng and was beaten until his nose was blue and his face was swollen because of his debt, it would be even more wonderful. After all, Xu Chong has just risen to power, and such a scandal would have serious consequences.

  "Hey Li Dang, come to Ye Huang tonight, haha, your brother will be settled soon."

  ……

  Also almost at the same time.

  Australia, Melbourne, on the other side of the ocean.

  A fleeting figure flew directly from the high clouds, quickly stopping in the center of a group of continuous villas, and then hurriedly descended.

  And when descending from the high sky, wearing a green Taoist robe and having long black hair and beard, he directly released a vast divine sense, radiating to the left and right. After a brief moment, he suddenly disappeared on the spot with a whooshing sound.

  The next moment he appeared again, he had already arrived at the gate of a villa.

  Two men in Western suits who were originally standing outside the villa suddenly saw this figure, and they all changed color with fright. Just as they wanted to put their hands into their pockets, a sudden cry of surprise came from inside the villa.

  "Stop!!"

  With a shout, an old man with a dignified face rushed out from inside. When he saw the man, his face was shocked and tense as he bowed and said, "Qi Mu pays respects to the Great Elder! I didn't know the Great Elder had arrived, I'm sorry for not welcoming you from afar, please forgive me!"

  This old man, decades ago, brought a younger brother and sister to Australia, and established a great family business. Now he is one of the most important figures in Australian officialdom, and even when meeting him, people have to address him as Mr. Qi, the head of the Qi family, Qi Mu.

  In fact, the Qi family is not just a martial arts family, but also has an overseas Xianmen sect supporting it from behind, just like the Feng family. It can be said that the rise of the Qi family in Australia is also thanks to the support of the sect behind them. With such overseas Taoist forces, even some broken and tattered items are precious super-antiques and treasures. They have money and power, so it's hard for the Qi family not to become prominent even if they don't want to.

  But at this time, Qi Mu was really shocked to the extreme, because he couldn't imagine that the middle-aged man in front of him would personally come to Melbourne to find him. In the past, it was always the Qi family who collected some talented treasures and sent them outside the mountain gate for him.

  What's wrong? Has something terrible happened?

  Can't help but say, Qi Mu's shock is far surpassed by the two men in suits outside the door. My god, what did they see? The old master of the Qi family actually bowed his head and knocked on the ground to this middle-aged man?

  But the middle-aged man didn't care about all this, waving his hand to let Qi Mu get up. Only when he stepped into the house did he say to Qi Mu, "Qi Mu, I've come this time because there's something important that needs your attention. Investigate this person and see if you can find any leads. He should be in China. This matter must be handled quickly!! I'll be staying here for a few days, so notify me as soon as you have results!"

  In his hand, a piece of paper with a painting suddenly appeared. The man in the painting was exceptionally handsome, wearing a modern casual outfit that accentuated his elegant demeanor.

  But here, I'm afraid it's only middle-aged men who know how terrifying this handsome man in the painting is!!

  It was during these days that the "Northern Evil Spirit", who shook the overseas Xiu Zhen world, appeared. With his own strength, he beheaded four foundation-building cultivators on Lí Fēng Island and forced the remaining people to rely on the island's protective array to escape disaster.

  In the overseas Xian Tian realm, while many people are shocked and intimidated by each other, they also want to know more about this person's background. Of course, this kind of inquiry is not because they want to deal with each other, but rather a kind of fear and apprehension!

  It's better to know some inside information about the other party, so that in the future, it can be brought up and used as leverage. It's best not to have conflicts with him, lest you end up like the island of Taiwan.

  This middle-aged man, who had also gone through many hardships to escape from the three tiger-like cultivators of the Foundation Establishment period, finally obtained this painting scroll. After understanding his opponent's strength and ruthless methods, he rushed directly to the Qi family. When the other party slaughtered the people on Liefeng Island, they were wearing modern casual clothes, which should be a high-ranking person hiding in the secular world.

  Moreover, he is from the North and naturally thought of the ears, eyes, and informants in the secular world at the first time.
