Lingering and scattering

Chapter 164 Confronting the Great Demon King

"Mr. Lu is truly magnanimous, embracing all with open arms!" Wei Changqing said with a smile. "Mr. Lu, I've heard about your situation. Isn't the one from the Tang family preparing to divorce you?" Wei Changqing had taken a liking to Lu Yang and saw something extraordinary in him. If they could bring Lu Yang into their Wei family, it would undoubtedly bring immense benefits to their future development. Moreover, Wei Changqing's judgment of people was very accurate. Lu Yang gave him the feeling that his future was limitless, and their Wei family might even have to seek protection from Lu Yang. "Alas!" Lu Yang sighed, clearly not wanting to discuss the matter. "Mr. Lu, what do you think of my granddaughter? Although she's a bit spoiled and headstrong, she has a good heart and is skilled in everything from chess and calligraphy to painting!" Wei Changqing immediately began to promote his granddaughter to Lu Yang. "Grandpa, what are you talking about? I'm still young!" Hearing Wei Changqing's words, Wei Mengyao's face turned incredibly red. Although Wei Mengyao refused verbally, her heart felt sweet. Lu Yang, despite being a useless live-in son-in-law, seemed to shine with brilliance from the beginning, making Wei Mengyao's little heart pound. However, Wei Mengyao secretly glanced at Lu Yang and saw that he was distracted, her expression immediately changing. "Lu Yang, what do you mean? No comment? Do you think this young lady isn't worthy of you?" Wei Mengyao immediately glared at Lu Yang and shouted. "No, Miss Wei, you are very beautiful and excellent, but my heart only has Tang Shimin in it, no one else can fit. Therefore, I am truly sorry!" "Elder Wei, I appreciate your kind intentions!" Lu Yang said, looking at Wei Zizhen and Wei Changqing. "That's a pity then!" "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to be so devoted!" Wei Changqing continued. At this moment, Lu Yang's phone rang. It was Dark Night Pluto. Lu Yang's expression changed slightly. He immediately got up and looked at Wei Changqing and Wei Mengyao. "Elder Wei, Miss Wei, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. I have some matters at home to attend to!" "Mr. Lu, if you have important matters, please attend to them. When you have time, come to the Wei family for a meal!" "Mengyao, see Mr. Lu out!" Seeing Lu Yang's expression, Wei Changqing understood and said. "Mhm!" Lu Yang nodded and walked out of the Wei family villa with Wei Mengyao. "What urgent matter is so important that you can't even stay for dinner?" "Is it that you don't want to eat, or you don't want to see me?" Wei Mengyao pulled a long face and said coldly to Lu Yang. "Miss Wei, please don't misunderstand. It's really urgent. I'll treat you to dinner personally next time as an apology. Is that acceptable?" Lu Yang had already rejected Wei Mengyao today. If he didn't take any remedial measures, this woman would be difficult to handle. "That's more like it!" "Alright, you can go back now. Drive carefully on the road!" Hearing Lu Yang's words, Wei Mengyao finally revealed a smile. Lu Yang stepped on the accelerator, and the Bj100 was already speeding on the road. He then answered Dark Night Pluto's call. "Boss, that assassin has appeared, and we're pursuing them, but we've also discovered someone else!" Dark Night Pluto said into the phone. "Ling Que?" Lu Yang asked directly. "Indeed, Ling Que is very fast and ahead of us. However, this assassin is very cunning and constantly weaving through the bustling city streets, making them difficult to catch!" "I feel that this assassin's appearance this time seems like a decoy, intentionally released!" Dark Night Pluto continued. "Regardless of whether it's a decoy or not, keep tracking. If Ling Que is in danger, you all move together to help Ling Que deal with that assassin!" Lu Yang said directly. "Yes, Boss!" Dark Night Pluto immediately agreed. "Alright, I'm using the tracker to locate you now and will be there soon!" Lu Yang said, activating the locator on his phone and quickly heading towards Dark Night Pluto's location. Dark Night Pluto's movements gradually shifted towards the outskirts and eventually stopped about fifteen kilometers from the city. Lu Yang accelerated towards this location. Ten minutes later, he finally arrived. The location was a barren wasteland, quite open. Except for a dilapidated four-story building about two kilometers away, there was nothing else. Then, several people were engaged in a fight. Lu Yang recognized two of them immediately: Xiao Arno and Falcon. They were fighting a killer, whom Lu Yang also recognized – Jack, the one who had invited Shen Yiman for dinner that day. Beside them, a woman watched everything coldly, waiting for an opportunity to enter the fray. "There's a sniper!" Seeing the terrain, Lu Yang instantly realized this was absolutely the best sniping environment. Anyone entering this area would be exposed to the sniper's line of sight, with no place to hide. Lu Yang parked his car not far away and did not head towards the center of the brawl. Instead, he stealthily moved towards the dilapidated four-story building. He had a premonition that there was a sniper here, very possibly the Diamond Killer, the Great Demon King, from the Death God Killer Organization. The Great Demon King was called a Diamond Killer for a reason; his sniping skills were definitely top-notch. If the Great Demon King locked onto a target, his subordinates would likely be in danger. However, after Lu Yang had walked only a dozen meters, he suddenly felt a sense of danger and quickly dodged to the side. Just as he dodged, there was a "bang," and a bullet struck the ground. "He's really cunning, discovering me so quickly!" Lu Yang sneered and continued to advance, but his speed was much faster than before. Several bullets whizzed past his body. If Lu Yang hadn't had a deeper understanding of the "Black Dragon Art," he might have died by sniper fire this time. Soon, Lu Yang entered the dilapidated four-story building but found it empty, with only a sniper rifle mounted on the window of the top floor. "Escaped?" "How is this possible? I've been observing the changes around me and haven't seen anyone escape. How could he run so fast?" Lu Yang thought incredulously. When Lu Yang looked back at the brawling location, he saw a black figure had appeared in the melee. Jack, who had been fighting them earlier, had been stabbed more than ten times by Xiao Arno and was dead. With the Great Demon King's appearance, the battlefield situation instantly changed. Xiao Arno and Falcon were no match for the Great Demon King and were constantly suppressed. Soon, the Great Demon King kicked Falcon in the chest, sending him flying and crashing heavily onto the ground, his life uncertain. Seeing this, Cheng Wanyun also joined the fight. However, even with their combined efforts, they were no match for the shadow, being constantly suppressed. "As expected, a master!" A cold glint flashed in Lu Yang's eyes as he rushed towards the brawling location. By the time he reached the battlefield, the Great Demon King was already fighting Ling Que, who was Cheng Wanyun.
