Chapter 769 - The Quiet Ming Zhi Yi (1/2)

After Xiong Zhi gave multiple onslaughts on Ming Zhi Yi at all sides, the pressure on the legendary families lessened by a great margin. The overwhelming pressure that put their empires at their knees was slowly uplifted.

At first, the heads were stunned. Ming Zhi Yi, that damn man who seemed to have countless schemes in his belly suddenly stopped his ȧssaults. After months of spending their time on this business war with Ming Zhi Yi, they learned a pattern in his attacks.

Ming Zhi Yi would always harass them with many difficulties and surprise attacks. And he never missed a day. As problems after problems piled up, this put a strain on their business empire, making the heads difficult to breathe.

However, one day their enemy suddenly turned quiet. This was truly odd.

They investigated the matter and learned that Ming Zhi Yi's main company suddenly faced an adversity.. Half of their shareholders suddenly withdrew their investment causing the entire company to suffer a major setback.

In this time where the battle with the legendary is at its peak, every move would be crucial. With the sudden withdrawal of the shareholders, the main company lost its credibility and its confidence to face the legendary families.

Ming Zhi Yi's parent company was greatly weakened. Seeing this, the others started to get wary too and started to make an escape. Because if Ming Zhi Yi lost, the legendary families would surely hand them and take revenge.

With this pleasant news, the legendary families would not let this chance pass by.

They immediately summoned their connections and resources to bring down the other companies under Ming Zhi Yi while the parent company was having trouble.

In two weeks, many companies under Ming Zhi Yi shut their doors and went bankrupt. The legendary families were ruthless. They did not give a single chance for those companies to breathe while oppressing them harshly.

As the legendary families were taking the lead in this fight, the business industry started to bet on them and take their side as well.

The legendary families' side was starting to gain their footing, making the people at their side cheered.

For the first time in a long time, the legendary families hosted a party in high society. It was to encourage people to lean on their side and show the signs of victory.

The small party was held in the Guan Mansion. The legendary heads only invited people who were worthy to invite in their faction from the neutral party. While Ming Zhi Yi was busy with whatever problem he had faced, the legendary families used this chance to get more power.

While the guests were clinking glasses and gossiping the inside news, in one of the private rooms, the four heads were currently discussing with solemn faces.

Unlike the lively party outside, the atmosphere in the room was quite taciturn.

Mistress Tang spoke, ”Have you heard the news? Just a few days ago, one of my people in the bureau reported that the national government is looking for Ming Zhi Yi. Apparently, they have a warrant.”

Old Xiong nodded, ”I have heard of it as well. It is related to certain research and manufacturing of a man-made poison. It is a heavy offense that all pointed to Ming Zhi Yi and his eldest son. He had no way out of this.”

Old Lu's eyes flashed, ”That cautious man finally caught red-handed. It frustrates me how we can't find anything related to him in Black Market and his hidden organization. I just hope that the evidence against him this time is enough to put him in prison for a lifetime.”

The three agreed. However, their faces were still solemn. Finally, Mistress Tang spoke of the concern in her heart, ”However, as we know Ming Zhi Yi is very cautious. He would never make a single mistake. So how did the bureau know about him manufacturing poison when we ourselves don't know? Could it be possible that there is another third party involved?”

”My people told me that Ming Zhi Yi's connections in the police and the bureau have weakened greatly. Thus, he could not use his past connections to get out of this. And it just happened right after his organization was ruined. He could no longer use those resources like he did in the past.” Old Xiong commented.

”He is cornered. That damn man is finally cornered.” Old Lu said with a dark smile.

Mistress Tang still had a frown. ”But it's not because of us. Someone is pulling something in the background. If I am not wrong, there might be a third party that laid a trap to Ming Zhi Yi discreetly while we were busy fighting with him.” Mistress Tang's words were agreeable.

It could not be all coincidence.

The three of them were silent for a while.
