The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 327: Something Happened
Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Something Happened
In mid-June, the temperature in Tianhai in the early morning was already unbearably hot. The overcast sky was filled with dark clouds, and the occasional breeze that blew by was also warm, offering no relief from the heat.
Ye Chenfeng had gotten up for his morning exercise before dawn, jogging slowly for over half an hour around the villa area, and then practiced a set of powerful boxing techniques. His mind was already contemplating returning to Capital City.
After Ye Chenfeng and Ye Dongjian survived an assassination by an ancient martial arts master, the mysterious enemy had not struck again. Ye Chenfeng actually hoped for another assassin to come so he could capture them and find out who was behind his parents’ car accident.
However, one thing was certain: the car accident involving his parents was connected to the Ancient Martial World. Whenever he thought of the Ancient Martial World, Ye Chenfeng would remember Han Chuxue, that icy woman. Before leaving Tianhai, Han Chuxue had given herself to Ye Chenfeng, and he believed that one day they would meet again in the Ancient Martial World because of his parents’ accident, and that he would eventually have to step into that world. For now, Ye Chenfeng knew nothing about the culprit behind the scenes.
"Brother-in-law, you don’t need to accompany us today. Wang Ye and those kids feel too embarrassed to face you after what happened yesterday. Who would have thought they’d look down on people? Could Wu Jie’s brother-in-law be an ordinary person?"
"Besides, Yang Xiaoning kept asking me about you yesterday, it seems like she’s taken a liking to you, brother-in-law! But don’t worry, I won’t tell my sister about it. We’ll arrange our own schedule in Tianhai for the next few days. With you as the godfather of Tianhai’s underground, we can play here without worry."
Ye Chenfeng had just wiped the fine sweat beads from his forehead with the towel hanging over his shoulder when he received a call from Wu Jie. Ye Chenfeng hadn’t planned to join these kids wandering aimlessly around Tianhai. If it wasn’t for Wu Jie’s presence yesterday, would he have gone to Tianhai Airport to pick them up personally?
Nevertheless, yesterday’s events had exposed weaknesses in the Victory Sky Society, so after returning to the villa, Ye Chenfeng called Fang Nanxiang and ordered him to restructure the society. A large gang must have its own set of rules for long-term development. The likes of Black Panther, whom they’d met at the Supreme Entertainment City yesterday, should not be allowed to remain in the Victory Sky Society and disrupt the order.
Although the Victory Sky Society was an underworld force, Ye Chenfeng did not want to see its members constantly engaged in sleazy activities. If they continued on this path, the Victory Sky Society would surely decline. Furthermore, Tianhai was just the first stop for the Victory Sky Society. If they couldn’t handle the first stop well, they shouldn’t even discuss the idea of unifying the underworld forces nationwide, let alone worldwide.
Fang Nanxiang fully agreed with Ye Chenfeng’s proposal and promised over the phone to re-evaluate the Victory Sky Society within two months, kicking out all the destructive elements.
Upon receiving Ye Chenfeng’s orders, Fang Nanxiang immediately put them into action the next day, causing panic among the underground forces of Tianhai. Many members who had engaged in shady dealings found themselves unable to eat or sleep, knowing that they would have to pay for their deeds.
However, since the Victory Sky Society was an underground force, who among its members hadn’t done something sinister? Following Ye Chenfeng’s directives, Fang Nanxiang turned a blind eye to those who hadn’t gone too far.
Three days later, Ye Chenfeng, who was dining, received an urgent call from Brother Hu.
Brother Hu’s voice was frantic over the phone, "Boss, Monkey and Li Pangzi have disappeared, and now Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory is in chaos. Brother Fang has already sent out members of the Victory Sky Society to look for them."
Brother Hu quickly explained the whole situation. Recently, Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory had been thriving, with Monkey and Li Pangzi so busy that they hadn’t had time to meet up with Ye Chenfeng and the others.
Ye Chenfeng, the hands-off shopkeeper, was happy enough to relax. However, according to the Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory’s executives, Monkey and Li Pangzi had already disappeared for two days, and since they didn’t have Ye Chenfeng’s contact information—it had always been Monkey and Li Pangzi who reached out to Ye Chenfeng—the executives were aware that Monkey and Li Pangzi seemed to have some connection with the Victory Sky Society. Hence, they went to the Victory Sky Society and informed Brother Hu and his people about the situation.
Half an hour later.
Ye Chenfeng arrived in the lobby of the Victory Sky Society’s headquarters anxiously. He had always regarded Monkey and Li Pangzi as brothers, and now that they had vanished without a trace, a sudden surge of anger welled up inside him.
"Young Master Ye, with the current influence of the Victory Sky Society in Capital City, it shouldn’t be difficult to find Monkey and Li Pangzi in a short time. We just don’t know who is targeting them this time," Fang Nanxiang said thoughtfully.
Ye Chenfeng had some suspicions in mind. Monkey and Li Pangzi’s constitutions had been enhanced by him using the Eighth Level Soul Force; ordinary people were no match for them. Moreover, Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory’s rapid growth, particularly the three pharmaceutical formulas Ye Chenfeng had introduced, was akin to a money printing machine that certainly aroused envy. Therefore, the disappearance of Monkey and Li Pangzi was likely connected to other pharmaceutical factories. This was the angle to work from.
Ye Chenfeng was eager to find Monkey and Li Pangzi as soon as possible. If anything truly happened to them, it was something he’d never forgive himself for.
"Brother Fang, deploy a group to check if there have been any recent movements within Capital City’s remaining pharmaceutical factories?" Although Tengtian Pharmaceutical Factory had acquired most of the factories in Capital City, there were still a small number of pharmaceutical factories struggling to survive, trying to hold out against Tengtian. Therefore, Ye Chenfeng believed the most likely suspects in the disappearances of Monkey and Li Pangzi were these other pharmaceutical factories.
"Also, Brother Fang, gather all the surveillance video footage from around Tengtian Pharmaceutical from the past two days; see if there were any suspicious individuals who came near or loitered around." Ye Chenfeng was methodically arranging everything, knowing his soul originated from a world five hundred years in the future. In that future, he often carried out missions for his country, facing crises with a calm and making the right decisions was a basic, essential quality.
"Yes, Young Master Ye, I’ll immediately arrange for it," Fang Nanxiang agreed at once, hurriedly leaving the lobby to see to the tasks.
"Boss, I don’t think Monkey and Li Pangzi will be in trouble. Don’t worry too much; we should be able to find their whereabouts soon," Brother Hu comforted, his eyes flashing with a touch of ferocity. Monkey and Li Pangzi were his brothers too, and the disappearance of his own brothers was hard for Brother Hu to bear.
"Benefactor, Brother Hu is right. I also believe that Monkey and Li Pangzi will be okay. You just take it easy," Tie Niu immediately chimed in.
Ye Chenfeng nodded silently, yet a fierce anger blazed within him. He was genuinely heartfelt towards his own people, and no matter what, if he found out who was responsible for the abduction of Li Pangzi and Monkey, he would make sure they disappeared from this world. The idea that anyone who dared to lay hands on his brothers would continue to live in this world was out of the question. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
After Fang Nanxiang finished giving instructions, he re-entered the lobby and said, "Young Master Ye, I’ve sent someone to investigate the few remaining pharmaceutical factories in Capital City, and we have people bringing the surveillance footage from Tengtian as well. All we can do now is wait for news."
Fang Nanxiang, Brother Hu, and Tie Niu, seeing Ye Chenfeng in his angry state, all felt a wave of emotion, admiring that Ye Chenfeng was a leader of loyalty and righteousness. They believed that, if they were the ones to disappear one day, Ye Chenfeng would be just as furious. Following such a leader was their good fortune, especially for Brother Hu, who had time and again felt so grateful that he had made the right choice to follow Ye Chenfeng all the way from the border trade market to Capital City.
