Chapter 898 870: Hong Lian Is In My Hands

Faced with Wang Zhanting's fury, Wang Zhantian merely held a smile, neither denying nor affirming it, an attitude that further fueled Wang Zhanting's anger to the peak.

"Big brother, do you know what you're doing?" Wang Zhanting felt his position gradually crumbling. Just that video alone had already given him half the victory. The reason for not acting was also due to Arthur's special identity. "Have you long planned to use people from Italy to lay the groundwork?"

"I haven't thought that deeply. Now all the assassin organizations outside won't take domestic business from us anymore. I suppose 'Black Crow' already took action. Our Wang Family's connection is here in Italy. If I don't find them, who else would I?" Wang Zhantian answered Wang Zhanting's question with uncharacteristic honesty.

"Why didn't you tell me from the start that it was you? You've embarrassed me today, left me completely at a loss."

"Didn't I tell you? Or was it that you never took it to heart from the start. When Yao Zheng died, I already gave you a heads up. Didn't you cooperate very well? Why now do you want to shirk responsibility? Afraid of being exposed?" Wang Zhantian, lighting a cigarette, glanced at Wang Zhanting. "If you're so afraid of being implicated, just turn me in. Your position as a minister might even climb another step."

"Big brother, what do you mean by saying this? If I had that thought, I wouldn't have stood against them today." Wang Zhanting sighed. Was it that with age, even this bit of ruthlessness had subtly eroded away?

"Oh, did those words really come from my ruthless brother's mouth?" Wang Zhanting mocked, squinting with an expression that seemed to penetrate the conspiracy, looking directly at Wang Zhanting.

"No need to look at me like that. I'm also a member of the Wang Family after all."

"A member of the Wang Family... Ha ha ha!" Wang Zhantian suddenly burst out laughing. "Maybe if you didn't say that, I might still have some forbearance towards you. And you dare to claim you're still part of the Wang Family? When the old man died, no, before he died, what did you do?"

"Wang Zhantian is talking about your plot against Hua Muyun. Why are you bringing up all that?" Wang Zhanting felt his patience reach its limit. He suddenly shouted to stop Wang Zhantian, but the latter had no intention of doing so.

"What? You don't want me to bring up that affair? Or do you think you can peacefully enjoy your days as the sect leader of the Wang Family just because evidence can't be found?" In the face of Wang Zhanting's anger, Wang Zhantian appeared much more relaxed. "I'm just a worthless person in the Wang Family, but you're different: high in power, high in status. But in my eyes, you're just someone who stole the Wang Family's treasure. You thought sending a fake Hong Lian to the hospital could cover this fact? I'll tell you, this time I won't let it go. If you're smart, resolve it. If not, none of us will have good days."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Hong Lian is in my hands. Do you understand?" Wang Zhantian revealed a sly smile. He held the trump card in his hands and wasn't afraid Wang Zhanting wouldn't get involved.

"So you got the Rose Staff?" Wang Zhanting was shocked. Finding Hong Lian meant finding the other half of the mafia. He hesitated inwardly at the credibility of Wang Zhantian's words.

Wang Zhantian quietly extinguished his cigarette in the ashtray. "Didn't you also say to let them come and arrest me if there's evidence? It was me who paid to bring in Arthur. How about the evidence from my confession, is it enough?"

"Where is the Rose Staff?"

"You mean even you don't know where it is? You were the one who swapped it with Hong Lian for 100 million from the old man's hands, and now you're biting back."

"Damn it, the staff is not in my hands!" Wang Zhanting roared softly in anger. "Where is he? I need to see him."

"Minister Wang, you'd better mind your own business. The Wang Family isn't ruled by a single person yet." Wang Zhantian's change in behavior convinced Wang Zhanting that the Rose Staff might have already fallen into his hands.

"Do you want to draw a line with me? Or do you want to reclaim the position of the Wang Family's leader?"

"Does it make a difference?"

"No!" Wang Zhanting straightened up, shaking his head. "I'm not the Wang Family leader, don't forget that. Of course, if you want to take that transaction, you can call a board meeting anytime. I don't object. But don't ever think of attacking Hua Muyun again. You only have one chance. If you didn't succeed, stop it. This is my final advice to you."

Watching Wang Zhanting's back as he walked away, Wang Zhantian squinted his eyes. "Since you've seen Arthur's face, this person must be eliminated."

"Oh, that's your business. I'll notify you once the board meeting is scheduled. Take care of yourself, big brother."

No other sounds came from the audio, only the click of a lighter and breathing sounds. Xiao Lin put down the headphones, deep in thought. His pitch-black eyes remained focused on a point, for the audio provided him with minimal valuable information. Yet, the mention of Hong Lian repeatedly by Wang Zhantian was evidently a warning to Wang Zhanting.

Finding Hong Lian was equivalent to finding the Rose Staff, equating to possessing half of the world's mafia. What Xiao Lin was pondering wasn't this half of the world but rather how a person living a hidden life appeared before Wang Zhantian. The 'Black Crow' assassin list had a huge bounty on killing Hong Lian, set by Wang Zhantian himself. According to the reliable information from 'Dungeon' Lao Jiu, 'DOMO' seemed to have already infiltrated domestically. Once a task is taken, it cannot be abandoned midway. This principle is the reason for the existence of eliminators, according to 'Black Crow'.

"Well? Can this audio have an impact?" Wu Mian inquired from the side, curious about when Xiao Lin started to monitor Wang Zhantian. If it were just after the meeting, Wang Zhanting wouldn't have given such free access. Wu Mian looked at Xiao Lin again, an unusual feeling rising within him. It was like a sleeping lion with countless possibilities in its heart, and the actions taken were merely reflections of its inner self. Xiao Lin was even more inscrutable than his father.

"The audio is currently linked to Hua Qingyi. Whether it'll be effective depends entirely on Arthur." Xiao Lin replayed the audio, listening more carefully this time.

"What? Real-time transmission?" Wu Mian exclaimed, startled. Hearing the dialogue between the two Wang brothers was already surprising, but Arthur also listened at the same time they did. What did this mean? He widened his eyes, compelled to refocus on listening with Xiao Lin. (To be continued.
