During this period, the three major families, in order to retaliate against Ye Chen, began spending money to recruit soldiers.
The Tang Family had already hired two ancient martial arts experts, both at the Normal Realm level.
Although the Normal Realm is the lowest tier among the Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow levels, ancient martial artists are extremely rare!
It's like a mediocre student at Tsinghua or Peking University; outside, they'd be top students.
These two ancient martial artists were a father and son duo. The father, Huang Tianrui, was over sixty years old, and the son, Huang Junxia, was in his early forties.
When they saw Tang Yu, they nodded slightly in greeting, "Hello, Young Master Tang."
Their attitude was somewhat cold, but Tang Yu didn't find it strange.
According to the feel-good novel setting, experts working as henchmen for wealthy second-generation villains are always disgruntled.
They might even exchange a few polite words with the protagonist during a fight, saying things like "I have no choice."
Ancient martial artists at the Normal Realm could easily take on ten professional bodyguards.
Having an air of superiority was normal.
"I need to go out later, and there will be some experts causing me trouble."
"But you don't need to act immediately; I'll play with them first."
"When the time is right, I'll let you know to make a move."
He instructed the two.
This father and son duo were definitely no match for the Reaper Squad.
The Reaper Squad members were all peak Normal Realm experts, known to be invincible at their level.
Anything coming out of the Dragon Soul organization, even a dog, would be the king of dogs.
Hearing Tang Yu's words, a trace of mockery flashed in the father and son's eyes.
Anyone who could exchange a few moves with a pampered young master like you must be trash.
Huang Junxia couldn't help but speak up.
"Young Master Tang, we came here because we heard we were to deal with experts. If it's just bullying people, why not let other bodyguards handle it?"
As dignified ancient martial arts experts, following a rich kid to bully people was beneath them.
"Yes, they are experts. Let's go, don't dawdle."
Tang Yu rolled his eyes and waved his hand to finalize the matter.
Huang Junxia was extremely displeased. If he had known he was here for this, he wouldn't have come.
Huang Tianrui patted his son's shoulder, signaling him to be patient.
Under Tang Yu's arrangement, the father and son got into a relatively low-key Audi.
Tang Yu, on the other hand, drove his flashy Lamborghini Veneno.
As the car hit the road, Huang Junxia couldn't help but complain.
"Dad, what's going on with the Tang Family? Didn't they say we were here to deal with an expert? Being a lackey for a rich kid is too humiliating for our Huang Family."
Their family was a somewhat renowned ancient martial arts family in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
They were hired by the Tang Family for a hefty sum, supposedly to deal with an expert.
But the first task turned out to be following Young Master Tang to deal with some experts he could handle himself?
This was disgraceful.
Huang Tianrui sighed, "Let's just follow him this time. If it really is , we'll quit tonight."
As experts, they had to have some dignity.
After years of hard training, becoming a lackey to bully people was a disgrace they couldn't bear.
Huang Junxia nodded in agreement.
When the car arrived at the entrance of Meile Foods, Tang Ruoyu was already waiting.
Seeing Tang Yu get out of the car, he greeted him with a smile.
"Brother, you're here. Must have been a tiring journey."
"How's the investigation on the fake accounts going?"
Tang Yu's smile was somewhat meaningful.
He already knew this guy had contacted the Reaper Squad, but he wasn't sure where they were hiding.
"It's all clear. We have both the evidence and the witnesses. The person was just taken away."
Tang Ruoyu smiled, "How about we find a place to eat?"
Investigating fake accounts was just a pretext. His task today was to lure the snake out of its hole.
"Sure, we haven't had a meal together in a while. Where to?"
Tang Yu cooperatively handed over the initiative.
"I know a good farmhouse restaurant. Shall we go there? Should I ride with you?"
Tang Ruoyu glanced at Tang Yu's Lamborghini Veneno, a flash of jealousy and resentment in his eyes.
Being far from the center of power, their family didn't get much money.
Such a supercar wasn't something he could easily buy.
The Tang Family's wealth should be his!
"Ride with you. My passenger seat is reserved for women."
Tang Yu laughed and got into Tang Ruoyu's Bentley.
After getting in the car, Tang Yu glanced at the rearview mirror.
The Huang family's car was following at a distance.
He had brought them along today to help clean up.
All four members of the Reaper Squad had to stay behind!
Meanwhile, on a hillside along a certain road, four men in black were sitting in the grass, smoking.
"How long until the target arrives?"
His hands had twelve fingers, making a lasting impression.
"About twenty minutes. We can start preparing."
"No rush, let's toy with him a bit."
The gaunt man lit a cigarette and said, "Do you know about Dragon Old Eight?"
"Yeah, he's in prison."
The other three laughed, the Reaper Squad filled with a sense of camaraderie.
The mighty Dragon Soul organization's Eight War Generals, and he ended up in prison within half a month of returning to China.
A disgrace to Dragon Soul.
"He was always a waste. If not for clinging to Ye Chen, what right did he have to be one of the Eight War Generals?"
The gaunt man said disdainfully.
The Reaper Squad was the elite force of the Dragon Soul organization, all eager to rise and become one of the Eight War Generals.
Being suppressed by a waste like Dragon Old Eight was frustrating.
"Ye Chen isn't much better. How long has he been back? He's already lost billions, squandering the money we worked hard to earn."
The gaunt man continued to criticize Ye Chen.
The other three chuckled but didn't dare agree too much.
After all, he was the Dragon King.
The gaunt man spoke again.
"Today's mission must be completed, but not for Ye Chen, for Young Master Lu!"
The Young Master Lu he mentioned was Lu Junzhuo, ranked second among the Eight War Generals of the Dragon Soul organization!
He was Ye Chen's senior brother, far superior in talent and skills.
Many believed that if not for Ye Chen's blood relation to the old Dragon King, the position should have been Lu Junzhuo's!
The Reaper Squad was Lu Junzhuo's loyal team!
"After we kill the target today, we'll send his head to Young Master Lu."
"Showing that someone who humiliated Ye Chen was easily killed by Young Master Lu will be a great achievement!"
"With this merit, it will prove Young Master Lu's capability far surpasses Ye Chen's!"
"With such a great contribution, when Young Master Lu becomes the Dragon King, we four brothers can become the Eight War Generals!"
The gaunt man's face grew more excited.
"Brothers, we've endured with Young Master Lu for so long. Our time to make a name is today!"
The other three also became enthusiastic.
