Female Novel
Chapter 702 Treason
Chen Hao could not help but to laugh bitterly as he shook at his head looking at these people.
Things had changed drastically; when he thought back to a year ago, no matter how calm and
composed he usually was, he would still feel nervous if he encountered so many bodyguards
surrounding him.
But now, Chen Hao could just kill the dozen people easily with a flick of a finger; those people wouldn’t
even know what killed them.
So obviously, when a person obtained powers beyond the imagination of common people, that person
would naturally be unbothered by small threats like this; Chen Hao was completely not taking the
situation seriously at the moment.
Currently, Tie Cheng and Bai Xiaofei had gone back to Jin Ling for treatment.
Now that Ziyan was missing, Chen Hao had no other choice but to ask for information from these
people.
“Wait!” Du Yining suddenly called out at this moment.
“What is it, Miss?” the middle-aged man asked.
“Li Da, don’t you think he looks like someone familiar?” asked Du Yining as she stared at Chen Hao
with her arms crossed.
“Looks like someone? Who?” Li Da asked.
“Don’t you think that he looked like the servant, Jun, that I had beaten to death?” Du Yining looked like
she was excited; she circled around Chen Hao and kept on staring at him.
The more she looked at him, the more similar she thought they were.
“Now that you mention it, Miss, he looked exactly like Jun!” Li Da nodded and agreed.
“Hahaha, I thought that the man’s face looked so familiar. Hmm, I am still very regretful that I had
beaten Jun to death back then. What if I just take him in as my subordinate? It seems like he could not
even manage to feed himself properly. Fine, I’ll offer him a job then!” Du Yining said.
It was true that Chen Hao was looking rugged as he had spent his three days training in the wild, but
he could not help but laugh bitterly when he heard Du Yining’s words.
As far as he remembered, no one had the guts to talk to him like this ever since he became Young
Master Chen.
“Miss, I just wanted to look for my friends who were taken away by you. If you know where they are,
then please take me to them!” Chen Hao smiled lightly.
“How ballsy of you. Our Mistress wanted to make you her servant because she thought highly of you.
You should be grateful to her!” Li Da’s gaze was cold.
“Back off, Li Da. You said that you wanted to find your friends, right? Sure, I promise that I will bring you
to your friends, as long as you come with me until I am done with settling the matter at hand!” Du
Yining threw Li Da a glance, signaling him that she was up to something as the edge of her lips lifted
slightly.
Of course, such small tricks would never escape Chen Hao’s attention.
Chen Hao could roughly predict Du Yining’s thoughts, but he might need to comply with her since she
was his biggest clue in finding Ziyan, Uncle and the others.
But of course, Chen Hao also had another choice—he could just beat them up and make them tell him
the truth.
But if these people couldn’t handle even a light hit from him and he ended up killing them by mistake,
that wouldn’t be great if these people were really Uncle’s friends. After thinking through for a while,
Chen Hao decided to go along with her and make further decisions once he was sure of her true
purpose.
“I will go with you if I can meet my friends!” Chen Hao answered.
Du Yining snickered. “Hahaha, that’s settled. Oh yeah, what’s your name?”
“Chen Hao!”
“Such a girly name. It wouldn’t do me good to call you Hao. How about me calling you Chen? Fromnovelbin
now onward you will be my follower and I will give you the same treatment as Jun, but without the
beating. Hahaha!” said Du Yining as she laughed.
She seemed to have come out on this day to settle some business, for before long, she gathered a
number of people and all of them headed to a manor out in the northern side of the town.
Chen Hao was also able to roughly grasp the situation when they were on their way there.
Strange happenings seemed to be happening in the North Desert since a month ago.
Many clans had come and gathered here one after another; the Du Family was simply one of them.
Du Yining was representing the Du Family to negotiate with Tiger Lei, but as for the contents of the
negotiation, he still had no idea of it; Chen Hao was disinterested in their matters after all.
Soon, Du Yining’s car entourage arrived at the Lei Family’s manor.
Outside the manor stood rows of their bodyguards. Tiger Lei was the leader of the local tyrants in the
area who had his position firmly secured; he was a middle-aged man who was slightly chubby and his
eyes were so narrow that they appeared to be straight lines on his face.
“Miss Du, I thought the Du Family would just ignore this meeting. I had no idea that you would be the
one to come here yourself. How very bold of you. You are definitely a strong woman!” Tiger Lei was
looking all over Du Yining’s body with a lecherous look on his face.
“Stop talking nonsense Tiger Lei. We’ll just go straight to the point. I wanted to ask you this—the
original agreement was to have the Four Great Families cooperate together and to equally share our
resources and ideas to seek out the ancient ruins, but why did you suddenly change your mind by
changing the share for our family to the smallest portion? What do you mean by this?” Du Yining said,
sounding very domineering.
“Hehe, you’re very frank, Miss Du. You’re right, we did agree to share the historical ruins equally. But
the Xu Family had given the most manpower and was the first one to find the ruins. The Du Family on
the other hand, barely made any contributions at all. So to be more fair, the other two families have
come to an agreement to let the Xu Family have the largest share!” Tiger Lei smiled.
“Don’t bullsh*t me, Tiger Lei. Don’t you forget that the Du Family was the one who opened the gates to
the ruins. If it wasn’t for the Du Family, the other three families might still be suffering out there under
the sun!” Du Yining retorted.
Despite not having a full grasp on the situation, Chen Hao managed to get a rough idea of what they
were talking about—ancient ruins.
Chen Hao was wondering that maybe the clans had found a tomb and decided to work together to
equally split their share for the things they had found, but it seemed like one of them had decided to
turn their backs against the other families by using some dirty tricks!
“Tiger Lei, don’t forget who was the one to have saved your life, you ungrateful dog!” Du Yining roared.
“Hmph, Du Yining, I was being nice to you for old time’s sake. Stop trampling on other people, you
b*tch. It seems like I have no choice but to teach you a lesson so that you can understand your current
situation! I see that it’s great that you came here on your own. You’ve saved me the trouble for going
out to find you myself!”
At that moment, Tiger Lei waved his hand and a group of armed bodyguards came in, surrounding
them completely.
“How dare you, Tiger Lei!” Di Yining yelled angrily.
Slap!
Tiger Lei stepped up and gave Du Yining a slap across her face instead.
“I have nothing to be afraid of, b*tch!”
Little did Du Yining expect that Tiger Lei would slap her. “Kill them, Li Da!” she immediately ordered in
rage.
“Hahaha! Li Da is definitely a rare expert. To be completely honest, I had my reservations about getting
into direct conflict against the Du Family, all because of Li Da, since he is an Iron Palm user of the one
hundred and eighth generation! Such terrifying skills!” Despite his words, Tiger Lei was smiling as he
spoke calmly.
“What are you standing there for, Li Da? Kill them!” Du Yining yelled at Li Da who was still standing at
the side.
Li Da sighed and said, “Miss, I have already advised you many times to just sit back home. The
situation now is no longer one where you can act stubbornly the way you always do!” Li Da smiled
bitterly as he shook his head. With the dozen bodyguards following behind him, he slowly walked to a
place behind Tiger Lei and continued, “President Lei had already treated you kindly enough, Miss!” Li
Da smiled and shook his head.
Treason!
Du Yining widened her eyes in disbelief; Li Da had actually taken the family’s bodyguards with him and
turned against her!
Even though Du Yining was also skilled to a certain level in the martial arts, she still couldn’t help but
take a few steps back in fear as she looked around at the bodyguards of the Lei Family, who were all
glaring intensely at her.
