Da Xiong also looked at Chen Fan strangely, not understanding the meaning of Chen Fan's sneer.
Chen Fan then said, "You can call Ekui Ping and ask about the situation there. I think you'll be very interested."
Ma Peng seemed to realize something at this moment, frowned slightly, took out his phone, found Ekui Ping's number, and dialed.
In a luxurious club in Pingnan City.
Ekui Ping was listening to Hong Wu's report, and everyone present was stunned.
"What did you say? Chen Fan and his group left Jiangcheng and didn't come towards us, but went to Mingzhou City?!"
Hong Wu quickly nodded, "Yes, I just got the news. Da Xiong has taken over all of Wolf Lord's businesses, and even Wolf Lord has been arrested. Now the entire underground forces of Mingzhou are probably in chaos."
"What?!"
"Bang!"
Ekui Ping suddenly slammed the table and stood up, his face full of indignation.
"Chen Fan, I will not rest until I am avenged!"
He and Old Wolf were brothers. When Ling Chen knew he was in trouble, Old Wolf immediately sent his bodyguards to help him. But he never expected that Chen Fan's target was not him at all.
"Boss E, what do we do now?"
"Yes, Mr. Ma is in Mingzhou. If the underground forces of Mingzhou are gone, I'm afraid that kid will do something to Mr. Ma!"
Many people who came to help from the surrounding area voiced their opinions.
Ekui Ping's face darkened, "Give the order, send people to Mingzhou City immediately. No matter the cost, we must protect Mr. Ma! And rescue Old Wolf!"
His words made many people around nod in agreement. Those who had come to help Ekui Ping before quickly took their leave.
After all, that was Ma Peng, the leader of the underground forces in Huannan Province. This was an opportunity to perform well in front of Ma Peng, and who wouldn't want to seize it.
Seeing everyone leaving, Ekui Ping also looked at Hong Wu, "Hong Wu, go to Mingzhou with me."
"Yes!" Hong Wu quickly nodded.
Ekui Ping then walked towards the door.
"Click."
However, at this moment, a sound of a gun being cocked suddenly came from behind Ekui Ping.
Ekui Ping was startled by the sound and frowned, turning around in surprise to look at Hong Wu behind him.
When he saw Hong Wu holding a pistol with the muzzle pointed at him, Ekui Ping was filled with disbelief.
"Hong Wu, what are you doing?!" Ekui Ping asked incredulously.
What surprised Ekui Ping even more was that none of his subordinates in the luxurious private room helped him; they all seemed to watch the scene as if it were none of their business.
This made Ekui Ping's heart sink to the extreme.
"Hong Wu, I've treated you well over the years, haven't I? We don't need to go this far. Put down the gun, and we can talk. Besides, I've always intended to let you take my place." Ekui Ping said nervously to Hong Wu.
Hong Wu, however, laughed, "Heh heh, Boss E, you have treated me well. You took a fancy to my woman, and I had to hand her over to you."
"Hong Wu, this, this is a misunderstanding. I'll give that woman back to you immediately." Ekui Ping panicked completely and waved his hands.
"Give her back? I find her disgusting," Hong Wu said disdainfully.
Ekui Ping quickly said again, "How about this, Hong Wu, I'll give up my position to you right now, as long as you give me a chance."
Hong Wu shook his head, "Boss E, I've been with you for over ten years. How can I not know your character? If I let you go, do you think I'll have a chance to live? Do you know how long I've been waiting for this day?"
"Thump!"
Ekui Ping directly knelt on the ground, begging, "Hong Wu, please don't be foolish. You know, even if you kill me, without Mr. Ma's consent, you can't sit in this position. As long as you let me go, I'll immediately call Mr. Ma and ask him to give you the position of the underground leader of Pingnan City! You have to believe me, I wouldn't lie to you!"
"Heh heh, I'm sorry, I don't need Mr. Ma's consent to sit in this position."
"That's impossible."
"Why is it impossible? Ekui Ping, do you really think Mr. Ma is the only one who can put me in this position?" Hong Wu asked with a cold smile.
"Of course, only Mr. Ma has that ability. Besides Mr. Ma, who else in Huannan Province can do it."
However, as Ekui Ping said this, he suddenly seemed to understand something and pointed at Hong Wu with disbelief, "You're talking about Chen Fan?! You, you've joined forces with Chen Fan?!"
Hong Wu smiled calmly, "I was originally doing business with the Qin family, but I chose this path at the time. And Chen Fan is the son-in-law of the Qin family's eldest daughter. How can I be considered to have joined forces with Chen Fan? I can say that I was originally one of them."
Ekui Ping was stunned, his face showing dejection. He knew that he had completely lost.
"You do it, I admit defeat," Ekui Ping murmured, closing his eyes with some unwillingness.
"Bang!"
What greeted Ekui Ping was a cold bullet.
At this moment, the underground forces of Pingnan City had been completely rewritten.
Just then, Ekui Ping's phone suddenly rang.
Hong Wu stepped forward, took the phone from Ekui Ping, looked at the caller ID, and then answered it.
"Have Chen Fan's family members been controlled?"
As soon as the call was connected, Ma Peng's voice came through.
But Hong Wu didn't speak.
"Hello?!" Ma Peng's voice sounded a little displeased.
Hong Wu then said, "Mr. Ma, hello."
"Who are you?" Ma Peng sounded surprised.
"Hong Wu."
"Hong Wu? The Hong Wu from Zhuliang County? Where is Ekui Ping? Have him answer the phone." Ma Peng ordered.
Hong Wu replied with a smile, "Mr. Ma, Boss E has already gone to the underworld. If you want to talk to him, you'll probably have to go down and find him yourself."
Ma Peng on the other end fell silent. After a moment, Ma Peng hung up the phone.
At this time, in Ma Peng's detached villa in Mingzhou City.
Standing at the entrance of the villa, Ma Peng's face was extremely gloomy.
Seeing Ma Peng's expression, Chen Fan could guess that Hong Wu had succeeded in Pingnan City.
"Chen Fan, you truly surprise me. I didn't expect that not only is your medical skill extraordinary, but your methods are also so formidable."
Chen Fan could tell that Ma Peng was praising him. He smiled calmly, "Mr. Ma is too kind. However, the fact that you were about to threaten me with my grandmother has already sealed your fate of not being able to leave this villa."
"Hahaha!" Ma Peng, whose face was gloomy, suddenly burst into laughter.
He looked at Chen Fan mockingly, "Chen Fan, you have indeed impressed me. I underestimated you. But do you really think that just you can oppose me? You're thinking too highly of yourself. Don't forget, I am Ma Peng."
Chen Fan's expression changed slightly, his eyes fixed on Ma Peng and Cheng Hua.
At this moment, Ma Peng and Cheng Hua simultaneously took a step back and re-entered the villa's glass sliding door. The glass sliding door instantly closed, isolating Chen Fan and the others in the courtyard.
Looking at Chen Fan outside the door, Ma Peng revealed a mocking expression.
Seeing this, Da Xiong immediately pulled out his pistol and fired several shots at the glass door.
"Bang bang bang!"
However, the bullets did not penetrate the glass.
"Not good, Brother Fan, this is bulletproof glass!" Da Xiong immediately realized something and said with surprise.
