At the same time…
The capital.
At the border of the city, there was an antique style luxurious manor.
This place had beautiful mountains and clear water, and the scenery was pleasant. It was an excellent place to recuperate.
This manor was the residence of the head of the Cao family in the capital.
The Cao family was one of the five top families in the capital and one of the top families in China. They excelled in many sectors in society.
At this moment, in a courtyard in the manor.
An old man in a white Tang suit with a medium build, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a dignified appearance with his white hair neatly combed back was practicing boxing.
This old man looked old, but every punch was filled with vigor and strength.
Therefore, this old man was the head of the Cao family, Cao Huben.
A servant was standing guard at the side with a towel and tea.
At this moment…
A middle-aged man in a black suit hurriedly walked into the courtyard, “Old Master, something big has happened!”
Cao Huben stopped and turned around, “What are you panicking for? Speak slowly!”
As he spoke, Cao Huben picked up a towel and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
The middle-aged man bowed and said respectfully, “Old Master, the charity foundation we established in Jiang City has been destroyed. Lu Minghui and the other higher-ups have also been taken away by the Jiang City General Administration!”
Hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Cao Huben frowned slightly and said, “Tell me in detail, what exactly happened?”
The middle-aged man did not hesitate and quickly told Cao Huben what had happened in Jiang City yesterday.
With that, the middle-aged man took out his phone, opened a short video app, and handed it to Cao Huben.
“Old Master, this matter has blown up in Jiang City. Almost everyone knows about it!
I’m afraid it’s impossible for our charity foundation to establish itself in Jiang City anymore!
“Moreover, we have to deal with this matter quickly. Otherwise, it might implicate our Cao family!”
Cao Huben took the cell phone and looked at it for a while before returning it to the middle-aged man.
With his hands behind his back, he looked at the distant sky and fell silent.
The middle-aged man did not say anything else and quietly waited for Cao Huben.
There was a moment of silence.
Cao Huben turned around and said in a deep voice, “Go and do three things now!
First, use your connections and immediately suppress this matter. Clear the relationship between our Cao family and the charity foundation and let Lu Minghui bear all the responsibility!
Also, send someone to tell Lu Minghui that as long as he takes responsibility, our Cao family will not mistreat the Lu family!
Secondly, let the people in charge of other cities keep a low profile during this period of time and do more actual charity instead. Don’t let anyone catch them red-handed!
Third, investigate carefully who this kid who went against our Cao family is!
1 want to know everything about him!”
“Yes!”
The middle-aged man nodded and left in a hurry.
After the middle-aged man left…
Cao Huben turned around again and looked at the distant sky with his hands behind his back.
He narrowed his eyes and muttered softly, “It’s been a long time since anyone dared to go against our Cao family. I didn’t expect someone to dare to provoke our Cao family this time. Interesting, really interesting…”
Jiang City.
Inside Hua Mei Biomedical.
In the assistant’s office.
Xu Yan went to do what Su Qingmei had instructed.
Prajna sat at her desk, wearing headphones and eating potato chips as she watched a romance idol drama with relish.
Yang Luo was sitting at his desk and cultivating.
Now, his cultivation had already stepped into the great circle of the Foundation Establishment realm.
In order to step into the next realm as soon as possible, as long as he had time, he would use it to cultivate.
After all, there were many enemies hiding in the dark.
Although he was very confident in his strength, he could not guarantee that he would encounter a true expert.
Therefore, he had to constantly increase his cultivation and strength.
Only by becoming stronger could he not be afraid of all challenges.
But right at this moment…
Yang Luo, who was cultivating, suddenly felt a chill in his heart and sensed danger!
He suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously tilted his head!
Bang!
With a loud sound!
A bullet pierced through the floor-to-ceiling window and almost flew past Yang Luo’s cheek, piercing through the work table in front of him!
This voice was not soft, startling Prajna, who was watching a television drama!
Prajna took off her earpiece and asked in confusion, “Brother Yang, what was that sound just now?”
“Sniper!”
Yang Luo replied in a deep voice.
“What?! Sniper?!”
Prajna was shocked. She hurriedly squatted down and hid behind the desk.
However, Yang Luo did not squat down. Instead, he turned to look at an office building a thousand meters away diagonally opposite him.
Under the sunlight, a light flashed at the top of the building. It was the light reflected from the sniper rifle’s reflector.
Moreover, Yang Luo also saw a figure crawling at the top of the building.
“Brother Yang, what are you doing? Hurry up and squat down!”
Seeing that Yang Luo did not understand, Prajna hurriedly reminded him.
Yang Luo waved his hand and said, “Don’t worry, bullets are useless to me.”
At the thought of Yang Luo’s strength, Prajna heaved a sigh of relief.
She frowned and asked, “Brother Yang, why is there a sniper…”
However, halfway through her sentence, she exclaimed, “Could it be that those assassins have already started to attack?!”
“Aren’t they too bold? They dare to attack in broad daylight?!”
But not only was Yang Luo not afraid, but he also revealed an excited expression, “Interesting, these guys have finally appeared!”
Right as he finished his sentence…
Bang!
The second bullet pierced through the French window and shot towards Yang Luo’s glabella again!
“Brother Yang, be careful!”
Prajna shouted in surprise.
However, Yang Luo did not dodge. Instead, he instantly erupted with the True Qi in his body. His right hand stretched out like lightning and grabbed in the air!
This bullet that came from a thousand meters away was forcefully grabbed by Yang Luo!
Seeing this scene, Prajna was dumbfounded!
She clearly did not expect Yang Luo to be able to catch a bullet with his bare hands, and it was even a sniper bullet!
This level of strength was too perverse, right?
Was he even human?
Yang Luo threw the bullet on the table, then raised his right hand and raised his middle finger at the sniper a thousand meters away!
At this moment…
On the rooftop of an office building a thousand meters away.
A Caucasian man in ordinary attire with golden curly hair saw Yang Luo grabbing the bullet with his bare hands through the scope and also saw Yang Luo’s raised middle finger.
“F*ck!”
The Caucasian man cursed angrily and quickly got up to pack his things.
As he packed his things, he said through the mini communicator in his ear, “This kid is not an ordinary person!
Plan A has failed. Start implementing Plan B!
“Also, come and pick me up immediately. Hurry, hurry!”
At this moment.
In Hua Mei Biomedical’s assistant’s office.
Yang Luo also saw that the sniper was preparing to retreat.
He immediately said to Prajna, “Prajna, I’ll chase after that sniper. Stay behind and protect Qingmei!”
With that said, Yang Luo rushed out of the office, leaving Prajna in a daze.
After leaving the company, Yang Luo unleashed the power in his body and shot towards the office building a kilometer away..
