However, everything has two sides.
If Chen Fan is eliminated, will the Su Family take any action against them?
Su Ming hung up the phone. After thinking for a while, he dialed another number.
Soon, the call went through, and a cold female voice sounded, "Grandpa, how's the mission going?"
At this moment, Su Ming, contrary to his previous cold demeanor in front of others, was full of smiles and bent over, saying, "Xiaochan, I've already sent those two guys to deal with that kid. We'll see results in at most two days."
"It won't be like last time with any unforeseen incidents, right?"
"No, no." Su Ming quickly shook his head, "Xiaochan, last time was really an accident. No one expected that kid to be so strong."
"That's good. That kid is a variable in our plan and must be eliminated."
"Understood."
Su Ming nodded and, after hesitating for a while, still said, "Xiaochan, besides, those two people, I also feel they're somewhat untrustworthy. This time, they even took the liberty of killing several family members."
"No problem." The female voice said indifferently, "We'll eliminate them after they complete the task; it's not too late then."
"Huh?"
Su Ming was stunned.
This isn't in line with the plan, is it?
Originally, the plan was to use the Beast Emperor's hand to eliminate the Thunder Emperor and the War Emperor, then let Gong Bo and the others remove the wounded Beast Emperor, smoothly taking over their positions.
These two people had been placed under a restriction by the Su Family, so they had to obey the Su Family's orders, essentially becoming puppets.
It wasn't impossible to eliminate them, but it shouldn't be at this time, right?
"Of course, I wasn't referring to this task." The female voice said, "I'm talking about those two people."
"Them?" Su Ming's eyes lit up.
Those two people naturally referred to the Thunder Emperor and the War Emperor.
Only by eliminating them would the entire Yan Country be under the control of the Su Family.
"That's it, Grandpa. Inform me immediately of any progress."
"Okay."
After the other party hung up, Su Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face showed excitement.
What could be more proud and satisfying than his granddaughter becoming the Empress of Yan Country?
At that time, the Su Family would also become the undisputed top family in Yan Country!
...
Jiangnan City.
Martial Arts Association.
Shi Tao and others had also heard the rumors.
Or rather, because of these rumors, their situation in Jiangnan City had worsened.
Before the Elder Council sent people over, many insiders mostly sympathized with them.
For example, the City Lord of Jiangnan City, who came here under pressure.
But after knowing that Chen Fan was a maniac, these people were scared. They not only feared Chen Fan but also avoided the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association.
"False accusations! Pure false accusations!"
Chang Fei slapped the table, "How could Chen Fan be such a person who kills the innocent indiscriminately? This is definitely orchestrated by the Elder Council to tarnish Brother Chen's reputation!"
Shen Si took a deep breath and said, "If it's really like you said, then they are too cruel, right? Besides the Song Family, the other three families were all working for them. How could they do that?"
"What's so impossible?"
Chang Fei snorted coldly, "Those people in the Elder Council have long since lost their humanity. They are all slaves to power. If anyone touches their authority, they should be prepared to die. Just like last time, they directly called us to accept our crimes. Did they listen to an explanation from us halfway?"
Shen Si was speechless.
"Brother Chang, talking about this now is probably pointless because those people are all dead, and almost everyone believes it was Brother Chen who killed them."
"No matter what we say, they won't believe us. They certainly won't believe that the Elder Council did it."
"Yes, yes."
The few people beside them also nodded.
"I wonder if Brother Chen knows about this."
"He should know, right? Didn't the president just go out to call him?"
"Yes, it's just not clear how he will respond. It's not easy to deal with."
In another room, Shi Tao dialed Chen Fan's number.
Soon, the call went through.
"Hello, President."
Chen Fan's voice came through, "The Elder Council hasn't given you any trouble, have they?"
Hearing Chen Fan's words, Shi Tao felt deeply moved.
At this time, he still remembered to care about them.
"Chen Fan, thanks to you, we haven't had any trouble since yesterday. But Chen Fan, you might be in a bit of a bind."
"Is the president referring to someone impersonating me and slaughtering the members of the Song Family and other families?"
"So you already know."
Shi Tao smiled wryly.
"My intuition tells me it should be the Elder Council. To destroy your reputation and take the moral high ground, they killed thousands of people. But it's hard for me to believe they would do something so monstrous."
"Actually, this wasn't done by the Elder Council, or rather, not out of their intention."
Chen Fan said, "But it is indeed related to the Elder Council."
"What do you mean?"
Shi Tao was stunned.
"President, you know about the person codenamed Ogre, right?"
"Are you talking about Yu Jianqiao?"
Shi Tao frowned, "I heard that person likes to eat humans and is extremely cruel. But this time, so many bodies were at the scene, all drained of blood. Could it be him?"
"It was him. Besides, there's another person with him, codenamed Devourer. These two were sent by the Elder Council to kill me."
"What?"
Shi Tao almost doubted his ears.
These two were sent by the Elder Council to hunt Chen Fan?
If he isn't mistaken, both of them are notorious fugitives, right? They've been wanted by the Awakened Association for years. How could they follow the orders of the Elder Council?
Could it be?
An idea surfaced in his mind, making him shiver.
"That's right, President, it's just as you think."
Chen Fan nodded, "But these two aren't too obedient. They don't want to follow the Elder Council's orders completely. So, they deliberately killed those family members, on the one hand, to strengthen themselves, and on the other hand, to frame me."
"If that's the case, then they are really..."
Shi Tao hesitated to speak.
However, he was also puzzled.
If what Chen Fan said were true, then how did he know these things?
This isn't a small matter. Once it spreads, the Awakened Association will surely investigate.
Because those two have killed many awakened ones, including quite a few A-level awakened, who could potentially become S-Class Awakened in the future.
"Chen Fan, what are you planning to do next?"
"Eliminate those two first."
Chen Fan said.
According to his foresight, those two would come for him in two or three days.
It was from them that he learned all this.
Although the experience points he had now were not enough to elevate all his martial arts to the Perfection Realm, it was more than sufficient to deal with those two.
However, to march on Baijiang City and end all this completely is no simple task.
Because he would have to face all the strong members of the five families and the Ice Emperor, possibly even going against the Thunder Emperor and War Emperor.
He still needed two or three more days.
Of course, to be safe, he shouldn't concern himself with those two. After all, the people they would kill next weren't his targets and had nothing to do with him. If settling accounts was necessary, it should be against those two and the Elder Council backing them.
But just because the Elder Council had no conscience, it didn't mean he had to abandon his too. Otherwise, wouldn't it fulfill the saying, "He who fights with monsters should see to it that he doesn't become a monster himself."
