Chapter 1239 You Are About to Have Bad Luck!
"You mustn't act rashly. Master Gu's feng shui and mystical arts are extremely powerful. At the banquet, he used a talisman to summon heavenly lightning. He is definitely a mighty figure among feng shui masters!" Master Zhang hurriedly reminded him.
"Summon lightning?"
Chen Xuan's heart stirred. Instead of fear, his eyes showed great interest. "That is rather interesting!"
Master Zhang frowned at Chen Xuan's expression, realizing the young man wasn't taking his words to heart at all.
"However, there's no rush to deal with Master Gu. Heh heh, I want to meet this Greedy Wolf Gang first!" Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Master Zhang thought Chen Xuan intended to pick on the weaker opponent first and couldn't help but frown.
"The Greedy Wolf Gang is a powerful gang in the capital. Behind them is the Greedy Wolf Group, a major force that operates in both legitimate and illegitimate businesses. It is said that there are powerful backers behind the Greedy Wolf Group, even involving the Nine Gates of the capital. They are not to be offended lightly."
"A mere Greedy Wolf Gang, what is that?"
A deep coldness flashed in Chen Xuan's eyes!
"This... this guy is crazy!"
Master Zhang's eyes widened instantly.
Afterward, Chen Xuan sent Master Zhang and his wife to a hotel. He drove off alone, a cigarette dangling from his lips, heading towards the Su family mansion in the capital.
He took out his phone and made a call.
The call was quickly connected, and a familiar voice came through, "Brother Xuan, why are you calling so late?"
The speaker was none other than Dong Tianwang, Dong Ming.
"Xiao Ming, help me investigate the Greedy Wolf Gang!" Chen Xuan said directly.
Dong Ming was slightly stunned, then said with admiration, "The Greedy Wolf Gang? Brother Xuan, you've also investigated the Greedy Wolf Gang. Brother Xuan, you're too amazing! I just received news that the Greedy Wolf Gang is connected to the Dragon Palace!"
"What? You say the Greedy Wolf Gang is connected to the Dragon Palace?" Chen Xuan blinked, showing a bit of surprise.
"You don't know?"
"I really didn't. It's just that the Greedy Wolf Gang offended me..."
So, Chen Xuan told Dong Ming about the Greedy Wolf Gang.
"The Greedy Wolf Gang truly has the audacity of a leopard! To dare to cause trouble for you, they are courting death!"
Dong Ming gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Xuan, I've already sent people to investigate the Greedy Wolf Gang. I'll tell you immediately after I find out everything about them."
"Alright!"
With that, Chen Xuan hung up.
Soon, Chen Xuan arrived at the Su family mansion in the capital. He finished his cigarette, flicked the butt into a drain, and walked forward.
The next day, after breakfast.
Chen Xuan picked up his car keys and prepared to leave.
"Chen Xuan, where are you going?" Su Yunxi asked.
"Didn't I promise Su Tianhuang yesterday to get the contract? I'm also planning to make my wife a candidate for the Su family in the capital." Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"You're really going?" Su Yunxi rolled her eyes. "Be careful not to get kicked out!"
"At worst, I'll just leave."
Chen Xuan smiled faintly.
He thought to himself: If they dare to kick me out, they probably don't want to do business anymore.
"Such a thick skin. Then I'll prepare a celebration banquet for you later." Su Yunxi said jokingly.
"Okay, wait for my good news!"
Chen Xuan grinned.
Then, he turned and left.
Chen Xuan drove his car to a grand and imposing building.
This building was ninety-nine stories high. In an opulent place like the capital, it ranked among the top five. Many major companies fought tooth and nail to secure office space here.
As a rising star in the capital, Xuanyun Group was also located in this Longhuang Building, occupying the coveted eighty-eighth floor!
Chen Xuan unconsciously took a look at the feng shui of the Longhuang Building.
The feng shui of the Longhuang Building was excellent. The surrounding buildings were like stars embracing the moon, encircling the Longhuang Building. This made the Longhuang Building a place where fortune gathered, naturally attracting everyone's desire for it.
However, upon reaching the lobby on the first floor, Chen Xuan felt a blast of cold wind.
This cold wind was not from the air conditioning or the natural breeze, but an intensely chilling wind, as if it came from the Hall of the Underworld.
He instinctively opened his Heavenly Eyes, and his expression changed drastically.
Many small ghosts were drifting in the vast lobby. These ghosts had blood-red eyes and pitch-black bodies, with ferocious faces. They were clearly ghosts who had died wronged.
What was even more astonishing was the sheer number of these ghosts, which was terrifying. There were dozens of them in the lobby alone.
These ghosts were clinging to the shoulders of passersby, their mouths agape as they desperately sucked something. Streams of golden energy flowed from people, entering the ghosts' bellies, and the ghosts looked extremely satisfied. As the golden airflow was siphoned away, the people's heads turned gloomy, their vitality and spirit significantly diminished, and their luck with wealth vanished.
Chen Xuan understood.
These ghosts were absorbing people's fortune and vitality.
And these ghosts seemed to be controlled by someone. They wouldn't absorb all of a person's fortune at once, only a little more than half, then jump to another person to continue absorbing. It was obvious that these ghosts were being raised by someone, specifically to absorb people's fortune and vitality.
"Which scoundrel is doing such wicked deeds!" Chen Xuan was furious.
Judging by the size of these ghosts, they were all children who had died prematurely, no older than thirteen. Due to incomplete mental development, they were easily controlled. Because they were raised, these ghosts could not be reincarnated, which was extremely sinful.
"Oh, why is our Vermillion Bird lineage's live-in son-in-law so angry?"
Suddenly, a mocking laugh sounded.
Chen Xuan turned his head and saw Su Chenglong walking over with a group of people, acting all nonchalant. Among those following Su Chenglong were all the young masters of the Su family, including Su Jie, who had troubled Chen Xuan before. They looked at Chen Xuan with playful smiles.
The people around seemed to know the extraordinary status of Su Chenglong and his group and kept their distance, their expressions unnatural.
Chen Xuan frowned and looked at Su Chenglong, saying seriously, "Su Chenglong, you are about to be in trouble. If you don't want to suffer, leave here quickly."
"Brother Long will be in trouble?"
"What a huge joke!"
Almost everyone burst into loud laughter.
Su Chenglong sneered, "You boasted about getting the contract, I didn't expect you to actually dare to come. Do you know which way the door of Xuanyun Group is? I think you're about to be in trouble!"
"Believe it or not."
Chen Xuan waved his hand dismissively, his gaze sweeping over Su Chenglong's shoulder.
At this moment, Chen Xuan's Heavenly Eyes were still open, and he saw five or six small ghosts clinging to Su Chenglong's shoulders, desperately sucking his fortune and vitality.
It had to be said that Su Chenglong had astonishing wealth. Streams of golden energy were continuously entering the ghosts' bellies, much stronger than others. But no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't withstand so many ghosts absorbing from him. In the blink of an eye, Su Chenglong was already overwhelmed with bad luck and was about to have a terrible time!
It was precisely for this reason that Chen Xuan had spoken the words he did.
Chen Xuan couldn't be bothered with this person; he still had to see Jiang Ning, so he turned to leave.
"You stop right there!"
Angered by Chen Xuan's indifference, Su Chenglong's expression turned cold. He lunged forward and reached out to grab Chen Xuan's shoulder. His five fingers were spread open, and a surge of vital energy erupted from his fingers! This was an attack meant to kill!
But just then, the large light fixture on the ceiling suddenly fell, smashing down fiercely towards Chen Xuan...
