Ding-ling-ling!

A ringtone sounded, and Li Xiangmin paused his conversation with Chen Long to take out his mobile phone and glanced at it, "Hello, Secretary Kim."

"Chairman, a man named Montdell has arrived at the company, claiming he has 20% of our LK Group's shares and wants to talk to us about acquiring them," a tense voice came through the receiver.

"He has 20% of our LK Group's shares?!" Li Xiangmin exclaimed, his face immediately turning grim.

Twenty percent of LK Group's shares were on the stock market, another thirty percent were in his own hands, thirty percent were held by a few major shareholders, and the remaining twenty percent were with his nephew, Pu Juncheng. Since his nephew's disappearance, that twenty percent had vanished, and now suddenly, twenty percent had reappeared, Li Xiangmin immediately thought of Pu Juncheng's disappearance.

"Lead them to the reception room, I'll be right there!" Li Xiangmin said with a heavy voice.

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiangmin, looking upset, turned to Ta'er De, "Mr. Ta'er De, something has come up at my company, so I will not be able to keep you company."

"Alright, Mr. Li, handle your company affairs first. We can talk about our deal later in the evening. We will just impose on your manor for the day," Ta'er De said, chuckling.

Li Xiangmin's expression changed, he had meant to remind Ta'er De that it was time to leave, but Ta'er De unexpectedly planned to stay. Not wanting to offend the Ge'er family, he could only nod his head with a displeased look and walked out of the reception room.

After arranging matters for Ta'er De, Li Xiangmin rushed to the LK Group head office, calling his sister, Lee Xiangzhen, mother of Pu Juncheng, on the way.

By the time Li Xiangmin arrived at the company's entrance, Lee Xiangzhen was already there, accompanied by the suspicious Pu Minsung and Jin Bingyan, who had received the news.

Glancing at Pu Minsung and his mother, Li Xiangmin turned to Lee Xiangzhen, "Don't panic, let's first sound out that man's intentions."

"Okay!"

Lee Xiangzhen nodded coldly, her voice stern, "If they have killed Juncheng, I will make sure they die in the capital city!"

Li Xiangmin patted Lee Xiangzhen on the shoulder and led the group into the company.

They made their way to the reception room and as they entered, Pu Minsung and Jin Bingyan's expressions changed drastically.

In the reception room, Montdell and Xing Fei were seated, with Jiang Chen and the three Mo Bao brothers standing behind them.

Seeing that Pu Minsung and his mother had also arrived, Jiang Chen's brows rose slightly, his eyes narrowed, and he gave Pu Minsung a knowing look.

Pu Minsung, catching the signal, pretended not to recognize Jiang Chen and followed Li Xiangmin into the reception room, sitting opposite Montdell and the other.

"Hello, I'm Li Xiangmin," said Li Xiangmin, staring intently at Montdell. Lee Xiangzhen clenched her fists under the table, biting down on her teeth to prevent making any sound.

"Hello, Mr. Li, I'm Montdell," Montdell began, with a light laugh.

"Hello Mr. Li, I'm Montdell's girlfriend, Xing Fei," Xing Fei smiled towards Li Xiangmin and glanced at Lee Xiangzhen, Pu Minsung, and Jin Bingyan.

Li Xiangmin, without introducing the three with Lee Xiangzhen, asked softly, "Mr. Montdell, how did you come to possess shares of our LK Group?"

Hearing Li Xiangmin's question, Lee Xiangzhen held her breath, staring intently into Montdell's eyes.

"Well, I do have to start by offering my condolences to Mr. Li!"

Mengte De'er spoke with a pained expression on his face, "I was traveling in the Flame Dragon Kingdom when I obtained the shares of the LK Group. I was staying at a hotel in Dingjing, and in the underground parking lot, I encountered a young man covered in blood. He said he was being chased by his enemies and asked me to avenge him. He promised that if I avenged him, he would give me 20% of the LK Group's shares!"

"What was the young man's name?" Li Xiangzhen asked urgently.

"His name was Pu Juncheng!" Mengte De'er glanced at Li Xiangzhen and spoke softly.

"Juncheng, how is Juncheng?" Li Xiangzhen asked anxiously.

Mengte De'er looked at Li Xiangzhen in surprise and then turned to Li Xiangmin.

Li Xiangmin explained softly, "This is my sister, Li Xiangzhen, Pu Juncheng's mother."

"Oh!" Mengte De'er's face showed a realization, then he looked at Li Xiangzhen with sorrow, "Ms. Li Xiangzhen, please accept my condolences. After I helped Mr. Li Juncheng take his revenge, he passed away because all his meridians were severed."

"What? Impossible! Juncheng isn't dead! Juncheng isn't dead!" Li Xiangzhen became hysterical in an instant, stood up, pointed at Mengte De'er, and screamed loudly, "It was you, you killed Juncheng, it must have been you, you bastard, who killed Juncheng, I want you to be buried with him!"

Mengte De'er's face turned cold and he spoke icily, "Ms. Li Xiangzhen, I understand your feelings, but if I, Mengte De'er, had killed him, do you think I would come to your LK Group with the shares like this? Furthermore, I am not someone you can insult at will!"

Buzz!

A powerful aura emanated from Mo Bao's body and pressed fiercely towards Li Xiangzhen.

Thump!

Crash!

Li Xiangzhen, overwhelmed by the aura, fell heavily into the chair, which couldn't withstand the pressure and instantly shattered into pieces, leaving Li Xiangzhen sprawling on the ground.

Li Xiangmin's face changed, and he looked at Mo Bao in shock. He was a Semi Innate himself, yet he had not perceived Mo Bao's strength. From this, it could be determined that this person must be an Innate Grandmaster.

After glancing at Jiang Chen, Mo Shi, and Mo Hu, Li Xiangmin's heart trembled vigorously. Were these four Innate Grandmasters? Who was this Mengte De'er, and how could he have such a powerful guard force?

Helping Li Xiangzhen to her feet, Li Xiangmin said sternly, "Xiangzhen, calm yourself."

"I..."

Li Xiangzhen's face was pale with fear as she took one more look at Mo Bao, closed her mouth sullenly, and bit her lip hard, her eyes showing fear, anger, and sorrow.

"Mr. Mengte De'er, I apologize for my sister suddenly hearing of her son's death; she is somewhat unable to accept it. Please don't take it to heart!" Li Xiangmin apologized sincerely.

"Hmph!" Mengte De'er snorted coldly and said, "I know it's because of that or else, just for her insulting me, I would have made her blood spill right here and now."

Li Xiangmin's eyes darted as he nodded quietly to himself.

If Mengte De'er had shown even a hint of panic or a slightly weaker stance after Li Xiangzhen's accusation, Li Xiangmin might have suspected that it was Mengte De'er who killed Pu Juncheng.

But Mengte De'er had maintained a tough attitude throughout, making Li Xiangmin feel that it was unlikely he had killed Pu Juncheng, or else Mengte De'er could not have faced him so calmly.

What Li Xiangmin didn't know was that Mengte De'er had spent over a decade in the Beast Fighting Arena, living every day amidst bloodshed, and he had become quite indifferent to killing. Whether facing Li Xiangmin or even a great figure, Mengte De'er would not show the slightest fear.
