nTranslator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

nYe Feng was also shocked by the old man’s description.

nAlthough he had already guessed that the grave robbers would make trouble, he did not expect them to be so cruel.

nFifty to sixty people were all wiped out. This was a shocking tragedy.

n“I saw with my own eyes that my wife’s head was smashed by them with a bronze statue. The blood splattered all over the ground, and my 16-year-old son was also killed by them. I was so scared that I didn’t react until I saw them rushing towards me. I ran as fast as I could, as fast as I could…”

nWhen the old man said this, his voice was already filled with tears. His body began to tremble. It was unknown whether it was because of fear or hatred.

nYe Feng could understand his current mood.

nNo one would be able to let go of the fact that their wife and son had been killed.

nHowever, what did this have to do with Chen Shaoxiong?

nCould it be…

nWhen the little girl saw her grandfather crying, she very considerately wiped his tears.

nThe old man hugged the little girl tightly as if he was holding onto a lifeline.

n“I ran all the way, all the way. I ran for more than 50 miles, I ran to the city, and went to the Office of Personnel to report the case.”

nThe old man calmed himself down and continued to explain, “The Office of Personnel went to investigate, but they couldn’t find anything. It’s as if that group of people disappeared into thin air.”

nYe Feng knew that this matter was not over yet, otherwise, the old man would not have provoked the people from Black Mountain Alliance.

n“After that, I settled down in the city and worked part-time jobs. I lived like this for more than ten years. One day, when I was working at a construction site, I happened to meet the boss of the real estate company who came to inspect the site. I recognized that person at a glance. It’s the grave robber who killed my wife and son!”

nWhen the old man said this, he became excited again. He gritted his teeth and made creaking sounds.

nYe Feng had already guessed that that person was definitely Chen Shaoxiong.

nAs expected, the old man said the man’s name. “This man has become a big boss, and he’s even the leader of the Black Mountain Alliance. His name is Chen Shaoxiong.”

n“What happened after that?”

n“He also saw me at that time. He was only stunned for a moment before he pretended that nothing had happened and walked over. I quickly called the police, and the people from the Office of Personnel also went to find Chen Shaoxiong to investigate, but because too much time had passed, there was no evidence at all…”

nWhen the old man said this, he hit his thigh hatefully. “I hate it so much. Why can’t good people get good rewards while bad people get glory and wealth? The heavens are unfair!”

n“Grandpa, don’t cry.” The little girl raised her head and comforted him in a childish voice.

nThe old man caressed her little face and calmed down again. “After about a week, I thought this matter would be over. I never expected that a group of people would suddenly come to the construction site to look for me that night. Fortunately, I didn’t meet them head-on since I went to the toilet. Then, I sneaked away and began to live my days of hiding…”

nYe Feng quietly listened to the old man’s explanation.

nAfter that, the old man was almost caught by the people of the Black Mountain Alliance several times, but he managed to dodge them by the skin of his teeth every time.

nIn the end, the old man simply moved to live near the Office of Personnel. He usually only went around near his home, which was a little safer.

nHowever, Chen Shaoxiong did not give up and continued to send people to harass and intimidate him.

nNo matter what job he did, it would be ruined by these people within a few days.

nThese last few days, he had just set up a stall to sell candy figurines, and this group of people kept harassing him. He was about to break down.

nWhen Ye Feng heard this, he glanced at the little girl curiously. “Then your granddaughter…”

n“I found her in a trash can when I was picking up trash. She’s a child with a hard life. I thought I might as well adopt her. It can be considered as having a companion.” The old man rubbed his granddaughter’s little face lovingly. The child was clearly the only spiritual pillar of his life.

nThe little girl touched her grandfather’s old face with childlike innocence. Perhaps she could not really understand the content of their conversation.

n“Can’t you find any evidence?” Ye Feng frowned and asked again.

n“Evidence…”

nThe old man frowned and thought for a moment. “I only remember that when Chen Shaoxiong killed my wife, he smashed her head with a bronze Buddha statue. The blood even flowed onto a painting. I don’t know anything else.”

n“What kind of painting is that?” Ye Feng asked again.

n“I can’t remember clearly. It seems to be a painting of mountains and rivers. I don’t quite understand it either.” The old man shook his head in pain, not wanting to recall that memory.

nMeanwhile, Ye Feng was deep in thought.

nAt present, it seems that this clue still has some value.

nIf they could successfully find the bronze Buddha statue and the painting, they would be able to have something on Chen Shaoxiong.

nAt that time, he would force him to reveal the clues of the mysterious organization. It would be logical.

nBut he was afraid that Chen Shaoxiong had already destroyed these two items, so there was no way to do anything about it.

nHowever, since the system had lured him here, it should not have just given him a useless clue.

nHe immediately asked about the bronze Buddha statue and the painting in detail, but the old man could only describe it roughly. After all, so many years had passed and his memory was a little faint.

nYe Feng sorted out the information he received and called Ah Can.

nHe asked him to help him find out more about these two antiques.

nJust as he hung up the phone and was about to continue asking the old man, he saw a group of people walking over from afar. There were at least 40 to 50 people.

nThe ones walking in front were the few people he had just dealt with.

nThis group of people carried machetes and sticks in their hands. They swaggered through the city, scaring many passers-by into dodging.

n“The people from Black Mountain Alliance are here. Young man, you should run quickly. Don’t bother about us.” The old man’s face was pale from fear, but he still advised Ye Feng to escape.

nYe Feng smiled nonchalantly. “It’s fine, I can meet them.”

nThe old man saw that he did not listen to his advice and immediately became impatient.

nThere were still some onlookers who had not left. They also looked at the group of people who were getting closer and closer in shock.

nForty to fifty people, each holding a machete or a club, this terrifying pressure was enough to suffocate many timid people.

n“It’s over. This young man is definitely done for today.”

n“Sigh, this young man is too much. Why didn’t he run just now?”

n“You know that these people are not to be trifled with. Why didn’t he run away instead of waiting here? He’s too stupid.”

n“Young man, if you don’t fall a few times, you won’t be able to learn to keep a low profile.”

n“However, this fall is too vicious. I’m afraid that it’s going to be a disaster…”

nJust as everyone was discussing, that group of people had already walked over and surrounded Ye Feng and the grandfather and granddaughter duo.

nThe local ruffian who was beaten up by Ye Feng earlier walked out with a face full of hatred.

n“Not bad, kid. Do you really dare to wait here? Looks like if we don’t show you how powerful we are today, you really won’t know how powerful our Black Mountain Alliance is!”

n
