The baleful aura in Li Tianran's eyes gradually intensified, transforming into a frenzied killing intent!

He strode towards Chen Nan.

Chen Nan had already dropped the dagger and was staggering towards the car in the distance.

He was utterly terrified.

Only one thought occupied his mind: run! Run as fast as he could!

Li Tianran caught up in three steps, his eyes fixed on the back of Chen Nan's knees. He mustered all his strength and kicked out with his right leg!

Bang!

A muffled sound!

Chen Nan's right leg buckled, and he fell backward.

"Brother, listen to me..." Chen Nan said, his face filled with panic.

Li Tianran didn't respond. He raised his right leg again and kicked Chen Nan in the head. The force of the kick sent Chen Nan sliding forward half a meter, blood immediately flowing from his mouth and nose!

Chen Nan clutched his head and shouted, "Li Tianran! Do you know the consequences of killing me today?"

Li Tianran remained silent, focused on Chen Nan's knee, and stomped down hard!

Crack!

A crisp sound rang out, and Chen Nan's knee visibly caved in. He howled in agony, his eyes rolling back as he seemed about to faint from the pain.

Li Tianran sneered and kicked Chen Nan's head like a soccer ball. After several consecutive kicks, Chen Nan was utterly defeated. He felt like Li Tianran wanted to beat him to death right there.

"Brother, stop hitting me! Stop hitting me! I'm just doing this for someone else..."

"What do you want? I'll give you money, okay?"

"Say something! Stop hitting me!"

"Even if you want to kill me, can you at least give me a straight answer?"

Chen Nan broke down. Li Tianran's silent warfare completely shattered Chen Nan's mental defenses. He wailed miserably, his eyes unfocused, feeling his consciousness fading as intense pain radiated throughout his body!

Chen Nan was now breathing more out than in.

Li Tianran crouched down, grabbed Chen Nan's collar, and asked in a low voice, "I'll ask, and you'll answer, understand?"

"I'll cooperate... Can you let me off?" Chen Nan whimpered.

"Let you off? Impossible. But I can make your death easier," Li Tianran said directly, not intending to hide his intentions.

Chen Nan smiled bitterly upon hearing this. He seemed to have realized that his request was a pipe dream. However, he was in unbearable pain. Even if it was just for a quicker release, he was willing to cooperate with Li Tianran. "Okay, ask..."

"Who's the boss behind you?" Li Tianran asked sternly.

Tianrun Pharmaceutical Company ostensibly had several shareholders, all with significant power within the company. Li Tianran wasn't sure if this was the work of one person or if all the shareholders were involved.

"My boss is Liang Tianyu..." Chen Nan said with difficulty.

Li Tianran frowned.

Liang Tianyu, that bastard.

The general manager of Tianrun Company, ostensibly the person with the highest authority, the one who used to manipulate drug prices and oust his seniors.

After hearing this name, Li Tianran asked again, "Besides Liang Tianyu, is anyone else involved?"

Chen Nan was losing too much blood, his eyes already glazed over. He wouldn't last much longer.

But under these circumstances, the information he obtained would be the most accurate.

Because Chen Nan was now incapable of fabricating lies.

"Liang Tianyu is fully responsible for this. He's kept it very well hidden... Aside from us who are carrying it out, even the other deputy managers in the company don't know..." Chen Nan struggled for a long time before finally saying, "He's recently been having disagreements with another deputy manager on the board and plans to use this to elevate his authority to a new level, curry favor with the head office, and squeeze that deputy manager out of the Nancheng branch..."

Li Tianran raised his eyebrows.

Head office?

Could it be... that Tianrun Pharmaceutical, such a large enterprise, was just a subsidiary of a larger group?

Then how powerful would the parent company behind it be?

Slap! Slap!

Seeing that Chen Nan seemed about to faint, Li Tianran slapped him twice to wake him up. "Did Liang Tianyu report this to the head office?"

"No..." Chen Nan seemed to regain some energy from the slaps. He said, "That deputy manager who's having disagreements with Liang Tianyu seems to have connections at the head office. Liang Tianyu doesn't dare to report things to the head office right now, afraid that someone will secretly inform that deputy manager and ruin his plans..."

Li Tianran breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

It seemed the news was confined to Liang Tianyu. As long as it hadn't spread, resolving this wouldn't be difficult.

"Where does Liang Tianyu live?" Li Tianran asked sternly again.

Li Tianran wanted to deal with Liang Tianyu, but it couldn't be at Tianrun Company.

Firstly, Tianrun Company had many security guards. Even with the changes in the world, Tianrun still possessed a strong security force due to its past accumulation of wealth. If he recklessly attacked Tianrun Company, he might fail to get rid of Liang Tianyu and instead get himself trapped.

Secondly, this matter needed to be done in secret. Dealing with Liang Tianyu was to cut off the information chain. If he acted ostentatiously and was noticed by others, wouldn't that be counterproductive?

Given these two considerations, Li Tianran could only target Liang Tianyu in a secluded environment.

"He lives at..." Chen Nan was Liang Tianyu's trusted confidant, intimately familiar with Liang Tianyu's daily habits. Now, under the haze of fading consciousness, he told Li Tianran everything he wanted to know, word for word.

Li Tianran listened and remembered, and after confirming that he had memorized all the information, he looked at Chen Nan expressionlessly and said, "One last thing..."

...

Meanwhile, Liang Tianyu, sitting in the living room of his luxurious villa, was impatiently tapping his fingers on the table.

He was waiting for news of Chen Nan's victory.

If this matter was successful, his position in the group would rise rapidly, and he would enter the highest decision-making level!

From then on, he would completely transform, from a carp into a dragon!

Suddenly, the phone on the table rang.

The contact was: Chen Nan!
