Chapter 1603: Scout

“Yang Ming is the name of the incoming visitor. He is the disciple of Fang Tian, the King of Assassins!” said the junior who was responsible for transmitting information. “He is also the son-in-law of the Butterfly Family and the fiance of Butterfly Wang, Miss Wang Xiaoyan of the Butterfly Family. ”

” Oh? It’s him? It is not Fang Tian?” Kevithan was strangely troubled when he heard the junior’s words, “Can it be that he is more powerful than Fang Tian?”

“This is highly unlikely.” The junior in charge of delivering information quickly replied, “According to our investigation, when Yang Ming first arrived at Butterfly Castle, Wang Ruoshui wanted to have a duel with him. In the end, Yang Ming cowered and declined the duel. I think he is no match for Wang Ruoshui and her martial arts should be weaker than Wang Songshan or Fang Tian. From this, we can conclude that Yang Ming may just be an outstanding youth from his generation. ”

” Hmph, such a person dares to come alone? Doesn’t he know anything about death?” Kevithan sneered coldly out of amusement, “Isn’t he overestimating his abilities?”

“Family master, I think that this Yang Ming is trying to be a knight in shining armor. He just wants to display his manliness in front of Wang Xiaoyan!” Thomas was only considering his grandson, so all of his thoughts were similar to that of Goode.

” Oh? What you say is possible!” Kevithan seemed to think that this was a possibility when he heard it. “So, this guy might just want to show off. It’s another thing whether he dares to come here or not. He may just skirt around our premises and return to the Butterfly Family to announce to Wang Xiaoyan that he has tried his best and that his ability isn’t good enough. Come to think of it, he will not lose any face if he does so.

“Family master, your words make sense!” Lecroft nodded in agreement. Because of Jetson’s previous show of imposing power, Lecroft and Thomas did not dare to address Kevithan as “nephew” anymore. They addressed him as “family master” instead.

They could not do anything about it. The situation was blatantly clear in their eyes. Jetson’s strength was so overpowering that they had to bow their heads. Kevithan’s reputation had been lifted to a very prestigious level.

“However, regardless of whether Yang Ming is really coming or not, we should be prepared to deal with it,” Kevithan said. “If he isn’t coming here, then so be it. But if he is coming here, then don’t let him return. Before, I didn’t know what to use to coerce Wang Songshan. This time, I will use Yang Ming’s life and death to coerce him. I am pretty certain that he will submit.”

“Yeah, as long as Yang Ming is dead, the so-called engagement of the Butterfly Family’s Miss will be nullified.” Thomas agreed. “Wang Songshan will be hell-bent on cooperating with us and will marry Wang Xiaoyan to Goode!”

“Kevithan, but if Yang Ming dies, aren’t you afraid of becoming the Butterfly Family’s enemy?” Slade hesitated for a moment and said. He did not care whether Goode was able to marry Wang Xiaoyan; he was only concerned about the overall interests of the family.

In his opinion, it did not matter if Wang Songshan’s daughter was married or not. This matter was irrelevant. The crucial question was whether the interests of the Lancer Family could be guaranteed, such as the response from the Buffon Family!

Focusing on this series of matters about Wang Songshan was just for the sake of the family’s reputation. There would not be any substantial benefits from it. Hence, Slade was not very concerned about this.

At his age, he put less emphasis on things like reputation. The so-called “shameless old people” referred to a person like Slade. Whether Goode marries Wang Xiaoyan or not had nothing to do with him. However, he still could not ignore his son’s status as the family master. As the family master, his son naturally needed to protect the face of the entire Lancer Family. There were slight differences in the way of thinking between the family masters and the elders.

But, out of the three elders in the family, only he dared to address Kevithan by name. This was because he was Kevithan’s father.

“Father, it doesn’t matter!” Kevithan explained with a smile, “I have thought about this before. Anyway, Yang Ming is not a member of the Butterfly Family. His current status is only as Wang Xiaoyan’s fiance. Once he dies, Goode will become Wang Xiaoyan’s fiance. Do you think that the Butterfly Family will antagonize us just because of a dead outsider?”

“What the family master says makes sense!” Thomas also thought of it the same way. Otherwise, he could not make supreme efforts to facilitate this matter. He was in favor of letting Yang Ming die here. With that, the Butterfly Family would not have any way out. Besides, the Butterfly Family would never declare war with the Lancer Family over a person who did not belong to the Butterfly Family.

“This is not wrong. Yang Ming has not officially married Wang Xiaoyan yet, so he can still be regarded as an outsider. If he dies, even if it causes grievance in the Butterfly Family’s heart, there is no legitimate reason for them to bother us. I reckon that they can only pinch their nose and accept it. “Slade nodded and said.

” Hehe, to find a reason for bothering us…” Jetson smiled coldly, “In the face of absolute strength, all reasonings perish. My reason to look for trouble is my superior strength.”

“Cousin Jetson is right. In the face of Cousin Jetson’s absolute strength, the Butterfly Family will become irrational even if they are normally rational! Wang Songshan probably is not a person who is unaware about the current affairs. He and the King of Assassins Fang Tian are unwilling to terminate the arranged engagement between their children because of their face. But, once Yang Ming is dead, will he dare to shirk?” Kevithan agreed, “Cousin Jetson, you will be the one to deal with this Yang Ming. I am guessing that if he wants to come, it will be tonight! ”

” He, it’s just a little rascal,” Jetson responded indifferently. “Hmph, if you did not want me to keep him alive previously, then Wang Songshan would already be a corpse. Can it be that this Yang Ming is even more powerful than Wang Songshan?”

“That is definitely not the case. But, cousin, please be careful. Don’t let the kid run away!” Kevithan reminded Jetson as he was worried that he might be careless.

“No one can escape from my hands!” Jetson said casually. However, this was just to fool Kevithan and the Lancer Family’s people. This statement would be considered a joke in Central. Besides, this was the first time he was fighting. His only enemy was Wang Songshan, who could not even escape. “Organize a celebratory feast for me. After I annihilate this kid, let’s celebrate my victory!”

However, Kevithan and the other members of the Lancer Family nodded their heads as they believed in him, “Relax, cousin, I will ask the kitchen to make preparations.”

In fact, Jetson did not need to eat anything anymore. It would be a waste even if he ate. He was only putting on a show. But, during the few days of staying in the Lancer Family, he was eating and drinking, just like the other members of the Lancer Family. This was to prevent Kevithan from discovering any of his body’s secrets or anomalies.

……

“Is this the Lancer Family?” Yang Ming looked at the manor, which was not far away. A hint of coldness flashed through his gaze. What a magnificent century-old manor. Hmph Hmph…

Yang Ming did not hastily sneak into the Lancer Family nor did he catch their juniors to ask anything. Instead, he sat down in a small bar that was a few kilometers away from the manor and quietly looked out the window.

An unknowing stranger would think that Yang Ming was looking at the scenery outside the window. However, Yang Ming was already watching every move within the Lancer Family a few kilometers away! This was the reason why Yang Ming had dared to come alone. He could use his special abilities to scout the Lancer Family’s movements, the surrounding terrain and whether there were any experts in the Lancer Family in advance.

Of course, Yang Ming would not be reckless about this expedition. Even Wang Songshan had been imprisoned in the enemy’s camp, so Yang Ming did not think that his ability was any superior. It was whimsical to think that the enemy would pledge allegiance to him if he displayed his immense strength.

“So, it turned out that this is the guy named Jetson…” Yang Ming naturally saw the previous scene in the Lancer Family’s conference room. Several people in the Lancer Family were discussing his life and death, ” I’m afraid it will not be that easy if you want to take my life, right?”

Yang Ming was not a forgiving person. On the contrary, he would seek revenge for even the smallest grievances. Since this Jetson wanted to capture him alive, how could he let him get away with it? So, Yang Ming decided. As long as he had a chance, he would kill this Jetson to prevent future troubles.

Chapter 1604: Infiltrating the Lancer Family at Night

Yang Ming smiled coldly while watching this group of arrogant and egotistical people joke about him as if he was already dead. He did not despise these people but rather felt that they were too arrogant. There was no need for such jokes despite their high chance of victory.

Keeping a vigilant heart at all times would guarantee a long life. Otherwise, victory would be uncertain.

Yang Ming did not have the mood to continue investigating what these people were talking about. This Jetson seemed so confident in himself that he simply did not mention his plan to ambush and kill Yang Ming. On the contrary, he was reveling in the flattery of the Lancer Family’s members.

Looking away, Yang Ming began to search for Wang Songshan’s figure. Yang Ming figured that there would be a ninety-percent chance that Wang Songshan was trapped in the Lancer Family. Yang Ming searched everywhere in detail. Yang Ming looked at every inch of the Lancer Family’s manor several times because he was simultaneously exploring the terrain while searching for Wang Sonsghan.

Yang Ming was not as arrogant as Jetson. Yang Ming was looking for the best escape route in the event that he lost. After Yang Ming’s detailed investigation, his familiarity with the terrain inside was even better than those who had lived in the Lancer Family manor for many years.

This was because some senior members of the Lancer Family would never personally visit servant workspaces, such as the kitchens, warehouses, boiler rooms, laundry rooms, etc. Jetson, who had suddenly emerged was even more unlikely to go to these places. Hence, these deserted places were the fundamentals for Yang Ming to save his life.

“Uncle Wang is alright. It seems that I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.” When Yang Ming saw that Wang Songshan was being imprisoned an independent small loft, he nodded heavily, “Good thing. Otherwise, Yanyan will be disappointed this time.”

Yang Ming closed his eyes and began to recall the terrain of the Lancer Family’s manor. He was also constructing plans for his night time action. He must act even though he knew that Jetson would be prepared.

Besides, Yang Ming had ignited his desire to kill at this moment. Even if Wang Songshan could be rescued silently, Jetson could not be allowed to live. Otherwise, Jetson would always remain a huge threat to him and the Butterfly Family.

Yang Ming reached out his hand to call the waiter and settled the bill. He then stood up and turned around to leave this small bar. The bar was still noisy. No one knew what Yang Ming was doing during this expedition and no one paid attention.

Yang Ming stood at the side of the street reached out his hand to hail a taxi. He got into the taxi and said to the driver, “Go to Lancer Family Manor.”

The driver readily agreed. Many of the poor children in the neighborhood worked in the Lancer Family. Hence, there were servants of the Lancer Family traveling between the town and the Lancer Family Manor.

“Sir, the car can only be parked here. The Lancer Family’s personal territory is right in front of us. We can’t drive in.” The taxi driver parked the car under a warning sign on the pavement while pointing out its words to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming glanced at the warning sign. It stated that the Lancer Family’s private territory was ahead no one was allowed to enter the premises without permission and so on.

Immediately after paying the fare, Yang Ming did not say much and got off the taxi. He walked in the direction of the Lancer Family Manor alone. Yang Ming had already memorized every step of his plan. Hence, he was not afraid to confront Jetson directly.

Yang Ming did not deliberately avoid anyone while he was walking because there was no place to hide on this road. If he met a stranger, he would have no choice but to knock them out. However, Yang Ming didn’t see anyone on the road. It was unknown whether it was a coincidence or that no one in the Lancer Family had come out at this time. He had a smooth walk to the Lancer Family Manor.

Yang Ming had previously already found a way and place to sneak into the manor while he was in the bar. At this time, he was standing outside the manor just to observe its internal activity again.

However, the situation was similar to his previous observation. There were still many guards guarding the loft where Wang Songshan was being imprisoned. The only difference was that there was a person sitting in a small gazebo nearby!

This person was the man named Jetson that Yang Ming had seen in the Lancer Family’s conference room earlier. He was the cousin of Kevithan, who was the current Lancer Family Master.

April in Europe is a very cold season. The difference in temperature between day and night is tremendous. It should be the coldest at this time. Yet, this person is sitting in the gazebo as such. Isn’t he cold? Yang Ming was very surprised and in awe because this person was wearing a very thin shirt!

It seemed that the Lancer Family had made prior preparations to respond to his intrusion. They knew that his purpose for coming this time was to rescue Wang Songshan. Hence, Jetson was sitting directly at the door of Wang Songshan’s loft!

Yang Ming sneered. This Jetson was really arrogant to a certain degree! How was the act of him sitting here not equivalent to announcing to others that Wang Songshan was being imprisoned in the loft next to him?

Of course, Yang Ming had special abilities. He did not need Jetson to confirm anything. Yang Ming already knew the place where Wang Songshan was being imprisoned. If it was a person without any special abilities, there was a good chance that it would be difficult for them to discern Wang Songshan’s position. But Jetson’s approach had just turned into a beacon.

However, Yang Ming did not expect was that Jetson was not arrogant and had already made prior arrangements. Like the previous plan for targeting Wang Songshan, he had informed all the juniors and servants of the family beforehand. If Yang Ming came to capture them, they would truthfully tell him the place where Wang Songshan was being imprisoned!

This was also a strategy for Yang Ming to walk directly into the trap. Moreover, Jetson did not need to constantly be aware of Yang Ming appearing elsewhere. All he needed to do was to wait idly for Yang Ming to appear.

However, how could Jetson make Yang Ming do what he wanted? Since Jetson wanted to idly wait for his arrival at Wang Songshan’s loft, then let him wait. Yang Ming could not forget the sentence that he had once said, which was to humiliate Goode. Hence, the first thing that Yang Ming did when coming here this time was to visit Goode’s place!

As a result, Great Assassin Yang utilized the situation where everyone thought that he would search for Wang Songshan’s location first. Yang Ming reversed his path and slipped to Goode’s place first.

The people of the Lancer Family had learned their lesson from Wang Songshan killing several disciples previously. This time, every servant and juniors who walked around the manor at night had an alarm device on their fingers. They were commanded to press the alarm device once they saw Yang Ming to allow the meeting room to locate his position. This would give Jetson time to prepare and would reduce unnecessary accidents.

However, Yang Ming didn’t even have the thoughts of bothering the juniors and servants. He didn’t need to know anything from their mouths. Yang Ming had already investigated the location through his special abilities earlier. At this time, the hidden Lancer Family members were caught by surprise.

Since his path was smooth-sailing and he remained undetected, Yang Ming was even more unlikely to be overly cautious at this moment. However, with his special abilities of x-ray vision and night vision, Yang Ming easily avoided the patrolling juniors and the manor’s patrol and security team. Yang Ming also easily bypassed some of the surveillance cameras that were located in the blind spots.

Yang Ming was very experienced when it came to dealing with surveillance cameras. Yang Ming had grasped the rules in the Immortal Building of Mount Jing. So, this moment was no exception either. While looking at the scenes in the monitoring room, he bypassed the surveillance cameras during the time the scenes switched.

Goode was extremely pleased these past two days! After a few days of nervousness, Goode felt that he could finally sit back and relax when he saw that Jetson had captured Wang Songshan easily. His heart was especially happy when he heard that Jetson was very supportive of his marriage to Butterfly Wang.

Tonight, Goode had got the news that Butterfly Ming’s fiance Yang Ming might come to rescue Wang Songshan. He was even happier because Jetson was waiting to kill Yang Ming in one fell swoop!

Thinking that Yang Ming was about to die tonight and that Butterfly Wang would easily fall into his arms without any obstacles, Goode was dancing and gesticulating with joy.
