"Wang Xiong is dead?"
Ye Guichen was puzzled, and he looked down as if consulting the Red Sparrow.
When he arrived at the Azure Dragon Building, Ye Guichen knew it wouldn't be easy to find Wang Xiong, so he released the Red Sparrow to locate Wang Xiong.
As it turned out, not long after, the Red Sparrow came back to tell Ye Guichen that Wang Xiong was dead.
The dignified president of the Azure Dragon Commerce, a master said to have one foot into the Innate Realm, was suddenly dead just like that?
Ye Guichen's heart was full of doubts.
But the Red Sparrow is, after all, just a bird. It had not yet reached full spiritual intelligence and, although it could generally communicate with Ye Guichen, it couldn't convey the cause or manner of Wang Xiong's death like a human could.
Still, that was enough.
Since Wang Xiong was dead, finding Wang Ying's whereabouts would probably only be possible through Wang Tianqiong.
With just a glance around the meeting room, Ye Guichen quickly sized up the situation.
From the looks of everyone, they seemed unaware of Wang Xiong's death, and Wang Tianqiong was making such a big fuss to take control of the Azure Dragon Commerce.
Wang Tianqiong, seeing that Wang Chaoyang had no intention of leaving, became increasingly sullen. "Wang Chaoyang, you're really not leaving?"
"I'm not leaving!" Wang Chaoyang shook his head.
"Fine!" Wang Tianqiong snorted coldly, returned to the top position, and with a wave of his hand, had a group of people surround Wang Chaoyang and Ye Guichen.
Wang Tianqiong wanted to show off his power in front of these high-ranking members of the Azure Dragon Commerce and establish his authority. Without further ado, he waved his hand and said, "Throw them out!"
Without a word, those masters pounced on Wang Chaoyang.
Having fought with the Military God on various fronts, Wang Chaoyang naturally did not fear these people. He took off his jacket and charged in.
Smash, bam!
The fight began instantly.
After all, Wang Chaoyang was just one person and soon fell into a disadvantage.
There was no sound from the onlookers, as if they were just watching a show.
Wang Tianlong's eyes flickered, looking thoughtfully at Ye Guichen.
From the beginning to the end, Wang Tianlong couldn't see through who Ye Guichen really was.
Someone who Wang Chaoyang held in such high regard, possibly there were only a handful in all of Jinling.
Inexplicably, Wang Tianlong thought of a possibility.
Most people knew of Wang Chaoyang's status as a major general.
Could it be that Ye Guichen was from the corps?
Wang Tianlong didn't know what had happened at the Jinling Royal Mansion and could only think of this possibility.
In today's situation, it wouldn't be possible to suppress Wang Tianqiong.
But Ye Guichen's appearance seemed to give Wang Tianlong hope.
If he could cooperate with Ye Guichen, it might be an opportunity for Wang Tianlong.
"What are you doing!"
Wang Tianlong shouted.
Several masters rushed in from outside immediately.
Wang Tianlong even stepped up quickly and kicked one of the masters hard, "Get out of the way, Tianqiong is my big brother, and so is Chaoyang. How dare you lay a hand on my brother, do you have a death wish!"
The master was caught off guard, stumbled from the kick, and was initially furious. But seeing it was Wang Tianlong, he hesitated.
After all, Wang Tianlong was part of the Wang Family and Wang Tianqiong's younger brother. Ties run deep in the Wang Family, and without explicit orders from Wang Tianqiong, the master dared not act rashly.
In the meantime, Wang Tianlong had already rushed to Wang Chaoyang's side.
Though Wang Chaoyang could fight, he was looking a bit battered.
He hadn't suffered any serious injuries, but there were plenty of minor ones.
"Brother, what are you doing!" Wang Tianlong supported Wang Chaoyang, looking reproachfully at Wang Tianqiong, "Brother Chaoyang rarely comes to the Azure Dragon Commerce, he just wants to see Father. If you don't let him, fine, but why hit him! If Father finds out, he will surely scold us for our lack of manners!"
Wang Tianqiong saw through Wang Tianlong's intentions, realizing that he wanted to use Wang Chaoyang to put him down.
Wang Tianlong's words had undoubtedly exposed the relationship between Wang Chaoyang and them.
If he continued to be stubborn, many would criticize him for not valuing family ties.
The matter of Wang Xiong kidnapping Wang Ying was already disgraceful, and if he kept trying to drive out Wang Chaoyang and Ye Guichen, others would secretly harbor resentments, making it harder for him to control the Azure Dragon Commerce in the future.
After thinking it through, Wang Tianqiong narrowed his eyes, playing with the thumb ring on his hand, his mind racing for a strategy.
Moments later, Wang Tianqiong's eyes lit up, and he laughed heartily, "Tianlong, you're right. I was momentarily confused."
Hmm?
Wang Tianqiong's words left Wang Tianlong perplexed.
Wang Tianqiong, however, ignored Wang Tianlong's thoughts, stepped up quickly, bowed deeply to Wang Chaoyang, and then addressed the others in the meeting room, "Everyone, you may not know, but I was just joking with Brother Chaoyang. Actually, there's something I've kept in my heart, and my father never mentioned it, for fear people would think our Wang Family is using its power to bully others. Since Tianlong has spoken, I won't hide it anymore. This Brother Chaoyang is my cousin, the son of my uncle, the son of King Jinling."
"Since Father trusted me to hand over the Azure Dragon Commerce to me, naturally, we brothers will strive to work together, not only to make the Azure Dragon Commerce bigger and stronger but also to rely on the Prince Mansion for convenience."
The high-ranking members of the meeting room were stunned.
Few people outside the Wang Family knew that Wang Xiao and Wang Xiong were brothers.
Moreover, Wang Xiao and Wang Xiong were lifelong enemies, and their descendants naturally harbored deep grudges against each other.
This time, Wang Tianqiong sensed that by using the Jinling Royal Mansion to solidify his position, he could eliminate Wang Chaoyang after securing his role as president.
But he also knew that getting Wang Chaoyang to help him wouldn't be easy.
This was the Azure Dragon Commerce, his territory. Since Wang Chaoyang had shown up, he couldn't allow Wang Chaoyang to run amok.
Glancing at Ye Guichen, Wang Tianqiong was somewhat apprehensive but not afraid.
Though the attempt to assassinate Ye Guichen had failed before, with Yu Nong and the Azure Dragon Commerce's masters present, Ye Guichen couldn't cause much trouble.
Moreover, Pang Quan was dead, and Wang Tianqiong had already quickly absorbed Pang Quan's subordinates, using the reason that Ye Guichen had killed Pang Quan.
Among those subordinates were some loyal to Pang Quan. Seeing Ye Guichen here, how could they not go all out?
Thinking of this, Wang Tianqiong became more content. He said to Wang Chaoyang, "Brother Chaoyang, I was confused earlier. I remember now; before Father left, he mentioned Xiao Ying's whereabouts. It seems Xiao Ying is at a critical point in cultivation. If you insist on seeing Xiao Ying, I'll take you to him now."
While speaking, he turned to Ye Guichen, "Brother Ye, what do you think?"
