A man walked up to Lan Yue and respectfully said, “Miss, Leng Qi has returned.”
“Let him in,” Lan Yue said indifferently, then saw that Leng Qi was being supported by two people.
Seeing that he was unable to walk on his own, Lan Yue was puzzled. “What has happened to you? Did you fail?”
Leng Qi replied grimly, “That Zhan Sheng has been crippled, and Hua Ling was almost… Some people appeared mid-way, I was no match for them, and only managed to escape by using drugs.”
The side effects of the drug were significant. Although it could instantly enhance his abilities, half an hour later, he would be completely drained, vulnerable enough for even a three-year-old child to kill him.
Therefore, they normally wouldn’t take such drugs unless absolutely necessary.
Lan Yue hadn’t expected that Leng Qi would be pushed to such an extent. His strength might not be the best, but he should have been more than enough to deal with Hua Ling and Zhan Sheng.
“Who were those people?” Lan Yue asked with a frown.
Leng Qi shook his head, weakly saying, “I don’t know, although a few seemed to recognize the surname Hua… But they’re not to be feared. It was the three men in black who showed up later–they seemed formidable. But rest assured, Miss, I crushed all of Zhan Sheng’s bones. He won’t die, but he will be crippled, and I gave Hua Ling a good lesson…”
From what he said, one could tell that it was his perverse hobby that had spoilt the plan.
Lan Yue expressed her displeasure, “I asked you to simply kill, can’t you do it quickly? Why must you take your time? Now look, Hua Ling is still alive, and it will only be harder to deal with him in the future!”
“It’s my fault…” Leng Qi lowered his head slightly.
Lan Yue could not be too harsh on him, as after all, he wasn’t truly one of her subordinates.
“Go and rest. I will have someone send you the antidote.”
After Leng Qi left, Lan Yue vented her dissatisfaction, “How can Auntie’s subordinates be so foolish?”
“Miss, don’t be angry. Although Hua Ling is still alive, at least one Zhan Sheng has been dealt with, which is somewhat satisfying,” her companion consoled her.
Lan Yue sneered, “Do you think I want to kill Hua Ling just to vent my anger?”
“Isn’t it?” the person asked, surprised.
“Zuo Tu may be decent, but he is just a tool; if broken, then broken. I want to kill Hua Ling because he’s a thorn in our side. With him around, our plans will not go smoothly,” Lan Yue explained.
The person had an epiphany, “I see, Miss is indeed wise.”
Lan Yue scoffed, “But now we’ve merely alarmed the enemy without accomplishing anything. Utterly incompetent!”
Seeing Lan Yue angry, her companion dared not speak.
After venting for a while, Lan Yue asked, “How is the training going over there?”
Her subordinate replied with a smile, “They have all entered the proper state and are cooperating very well, especially those from the Yun Family, who are particularly enthusiastic about their training.”
Lan Yue scoffed, “With Yun Hu’s constitution, no matter how much he trains, it will be fruitless. But letting them taste some success for now isn’t a bad idea…”
After returning to the villa, Mo Jun carefully reported everything that had happened that day to Hao Yansen.
After listening, Hao Yansen’s expression grew dark, “Based on what you’ve said, the drugs those people are taking must all be the same kind.”
Otherwise, they wouldn’t all show the same symptoms, all falling ill on the night of the full moon!
