Chapter 745 - Chaos in the Underworld (1/2)
Once Xiong Zhi got enough distance away from Sir Majid and his men, Linfeng appeared beside her.
Linfeng walked closer to her and held her hand. His frown eased after being near her presence. He had been worried and uneasy while waiting for her earlier. After all, the man she was meeting was an underground king, a very dangerous man in the underworld.
But knowing how stubborn his girlfriend was, he had no choice but to compromise.
He asked the silent woman beside him, ”How is the talk between you two?”
Xiong Zhi and Linfeng walked side by side, holding hands.
Xiong Zhi answered with a light shrug of her shoulders. ”He is still cautious, but I am confident that he will give an answer to us soon.”
Linfeng nodded. ”I bet you told him about my faction?”
”No. It will be more effective if he discovers it for himself.”
”If that is the case, then I need to push forward. Sir Majid will only move if he sees that our side is winning. I will make sure that the Abromich will have no time to support Ming Zhi Yi, that much is easy for me to do,” Linfeng said.
”What are the chances of Ifel Abromich using Ming Zhi Yi's organization for his own?”
”Since we are pushing him back while his hands are tied, Abromich will undoubtedly use Ming Zhi Yi's men regardless of Ming Zhi Yi's disapproval. He has enough reason to do so, because Ming Zhi Yi presented their alliance as 'joined forces'.”
”I think so too.”
”Don't worry much about this matter, just focus on the things you have to do. I will handle this.”
Xiong Zhi squeezed Linfeng's hand. ”Alright. I will leave the underground matters to you then. The Abromich family is the greatest support that Ming Zhi Yi has. If he cannot mobilize that resource as support, then he will be weakened by a lot.”
”This is why I shall ensure that I will not fail on my mission, my dear Young Miss.” Linfeng kissed Xiong Zhi's hand.
Xiong Zhi smiled.
The Faceless King who kept the Abromich family under wraps was precisely the man beside her.
She looked forward to the time when Ming Zhi Yi would look behind him and realize that his underground forces were gone.
....
The upcoming days were not peaceful for the Abromich family.
The Faceless King's faction was unruly and kept attacking them at all sides. Not only that, but suddenly another force joined the fight and made the matter worse.
Ifel Abromich who was under house arrest bellowed. ”How dare they join forces and go against me!”
Sir Majid Al Ghurair was one of the underworld kings who rejected his and Ming Zhi Yi's offer to join the same alliance. Because this man had rejected them both, they planned to eliminate him and take over his turf.
But who would have thought that the situation would reverse instead?
Now, it was his organization that was about to get eliminated by these bastards!
”Ethan!” Ifel Abromoich called out to his son. ”Is there any reply from Ming Zhi Yi's side?”
Ethan nodded with beads of sweat on his forehead. ”Yes. Lu Jin said that his father cannot help us personally at the moment. But he will send some of his men here to ȧssist us in case an underworld clan war breaks out.”
Ifel frowned.
Just sending 'some' men to him was not enough.
He needed Ming Zhi Yi's huge part of manpower and spies to push the two organizations down. They would also need to coordinate with the other allies, which was Ming Zhi Yi's role in the alliance.
In short, Ifel needed Ming Zhi Yi's full horsepower, the commanding authority of their organization. Since most of his men were arrested and we're currently being watched, he lacked trusted subordinates and could not entirely depend on his remaining men.
If he let this continue, then his whole turf would be left with nothing.
