Chapter 1106: Being Looked Down Upon

Tang Xiu calmly and quietly watched the reunion between his father and his old brothers with a warm feeling. The occasion that revealed each man’s true nature made him realize that he was still far worse than his own father—which was also the reason his father put down his guard when facing his brothers.

However, he still held his principle that no matter how good the brothers were, it was still less important than being formidable himself.

When he was plotted against back when in the Immortal World, he always thought those good friends of his were his true brothers, and yet, he ultimately found that it was all his wishful thinking.

Suddenly, his face slightly shifted and he quietly retreated outside the warehouse. As he appeared at the square outside, he glanced around a few times and asked lightly, “Why did you come here?”

“Grand Master.” Tang An’s figure didn’t appear, but her faint voice passed into Tang Xiu’s ear. “We just received the news that a group of foreigner experts is gathering at the Haidi private port in Yungang City. They are now occupying the site completely and nobody can get close to it. The info gathered by our intel department says there are nearly 100 people gathered there, and the number is still increasing.”

Tang Xiu frowned and asked, “Who’s the owner of that port?”

“Wen Feng. He’s a real estate developer in Yungang City and is also the richest man there,” said Tang An. “Our men have secretly investigated him and found some issues pertaining to him.”

“And those issues are?” continued Tang Xiu.

“Wen Feng spent his childhood as an orphan who lived in the orphanage before he was 12 years old,” said Tang An. “But there was a big fire in the orphanage later on and many staff and children were burned to death and many went missing. Wen Feng was one of the missing people, but he suddenly appeared in Yungang City when he turned 18 about 6 years after the incident. He entered the key school in Yungang City to study and took the CET (College Entrance Test) in his second year. He was admitted to the Northern Uni, but then gave up the opportunity to enroll and started his business in Yungang.

“After 21 years, he founded the Riverhill Group and became the richest man in Yungang with assets up to 10 billion yuan. This Riverhill Group is not only engaged in real estate development but also foreign trade business with a private port that can accommodate more than ten large cargo ships.”

“What I want to know is the issue on his identity,” asked Tang Xiu faintly.

“It’s all about his funds. Many of his funds came from abroad,” said Tang An. “Although the capital flows into China from his trade is very secretive, our men can track the capital flows from some countries abroad even though the respective officials in the country may not be able to get anything should they intentionally investigate him.”

Tang Xiu’s eyes lit up with surprise. What had Wen Feng experienced after missing for 6 years? If he got recruited and became a tentacle of some foreign power and then came back to China, he must have some targets, purposes, and schemes to be carried out.

“Have you found out his true identity and those who have rushed over there?”

“We haven’t gotten anything yet!” replied Tang An. “Their movement is erratic and they are drifting from place to place. Further, they’re very vigilant. Our intel operatives were nearly noticed by them even though they’ve been very careful. Additionally, some of our trusted clients have been found out just to track the capital flows from abroad to Wen Feng. If it wasn’t for our men stepping forward, it’s likely that the other party would have already found us.”

Tang Xiu squinted with countless thoughts churning in his mind. After the long silence, he slowly said, “We’ll head to Yungang tonight. Only the two of us. We’ll find out who these people are and which organization Wen Feng is affiliated to.”

“Understood!”

There was no other sound or movement after Tang An finished speaking.

Tang Xiu fell into his train of thought for a while before turning and walking toward the warehouse. As he came inside, he saw all those big men were training, whereas Li Zaibiao was chatting with his father and Ni Penggang.

“Hey, Xiu’er. Where did you just go?” Upon seeing Tang Xiu walking inside, Tang Yunde immediately waved and asked aloud.

“I just received a particular message, so I left for a while. Anyway, I’m glad you can meet with your old brothers, Dad.” Tang Xiu smiled.

“Yeah! I’m really happy to see these former brothers of mine.” Tang Yunde happily smiled. “Well, let me introduce you, Xiu’er. He’s Li Zaibiao, a once military genius who appeared in the army.”

“How do you do, Uncle Li.” Tang Xiu looked at Li Zaibiao and smilingly nodded.

The big man carefully examined Tang Xiu and shook his head. “The bones and body are too weak, and your scholarly aura is way too thick. You’ll need a strong force to become a real warrior. But your father is like the God of War to us in the past, so I think a tiger father won’t beget a dog son. You must be quite amazing in other respects, right?”
