Under forty disciplinary beatings, even if their ribs were not broken and their muscles not snapped, they would at the very least end up with a layer of skin torn off, revealing their red flesh. In addition, them having to continue doing what they were supposed to do tomorrow… this punishment was extremely harsh, absolutely devoid of consideration. Especially since these three were Li Youran’s close cousins! However, Li Youran calmly stated their punishment with an indifferent tone of voice, his eyes also exuding a calm aura. It seemed as though he was not dealing with his close cousins, or humans in general; his actions resembled the way people deal against three disposable dogs…
However, Li Feng and his brothers reacted as though they had been granted amnesty, uttering their thanks again and again. From their actions, it seemed as though the punishment was one filled with kindness, a light punishment.
“Umm, Jun Moxie… hehe…” Li Youran smiled gently and said in a light tone. “You can leave.” It was only after hearing these words did the three brothers dared to move. They were unusually well behaved as they meekly walked away, an expression of having found great fortune etched on their faces!
“Come,” Li Youran lightly clapped his hands. In an instant, two black clothed figures quietly appeared by his side. They bowed down, awaiting orders.
“Well, go investigate in detail why Jun Moxie was able to win this time. Also, investigate why the psychedelic drugs did not work. In addition, confirm whether the appearance of Dugu Xiaoyi was truly a coincidence… Even if Dugu Xiaoyi had appeared, Jun Moxie should not have had any chances of winning… Once you have clearly investigated those matters, report the results to me immediately,” He spoke with the same indifferent voice, as though he did not want to spend too much energy even when talking.
“Affirmative!” The two black clothed figures saluted respectfully. Before they could turn around, they saw a green clothed person who was out of breath ran in. As this person entered within ten paces before Li Youran, he slowed down and controlled his breath, but his face remained red; only after having controlled his breaths did he went before Li Youran. “Reporting to Young Master, the Tang Family Duke, Tang Wanli is bringing the Young Master Tang and hundreds worth of troops towards our Li Family. Their manner of movements looks threatening.”
“Oh? They want to give us troubles?” Li Youran’s eyebrows gently moved upwards. Softly, he continued. “How unexpected, even Tang Yuan would have this level of craftiness. It seems some adjustments are needed for our plans… hehe… Very well, go inform Li Zhen and his brothers. When Grandfather Tang asks them about it, they should… this…answer. Also, execute the disciplinary punishment immediately! Only after the punishment is halfway done should you bring Grandfather Tang to go question them.” One of the black clothed figures nodded and rushed off.
Li Youran’s mouth curled into a smile as he suddenly turned around and asked. “Among those that Grandfather Tang had brought with him this time, are there any that we had been keeping an eye on?”
“Yes!” The green clothed man replied without the slightest hesitation. “There were three of them.”
“Three… that is enough,” A mysterious smile flitted upon Li Youran’s face. He raised his head to gaze upon the billowing clouds upon the sky. The originally warm autumn wind was now mixed with a slight cool air. Li Youran whispered in an inaudible tone. “It is about to rain. Now that the Tang Family’s elites have moved out… this is probably a good opportunity.” In his eyes, a trace of cautiousness and hurry appeared as he spoke. “Immediately notify Qin Hu to take this opportunity. Now that the Tang Family forces have been emptied, he must obtain the item that I had mentioned before from the Tang Residence. He can only succeed, failure is not allowed. This is the only opportunity!” Raising his head upwards again, he continued. “Tell him that he has the whole afternoon for this operation!”
