"Speak!"
Nangong Ao glanced at Nangong Ming.
Nangong Ming respectfully said to Nangong Ao, "Although Zhang Hao's character isn't great, he values loyalty. As long as we capture his friends, he should come to rescue them, fearing for their safety. At that time, we just need to set up an ambush. Then we can..."
Nangong Ao's heart stirred. Looking at Nangong Ming, he said, "Your method is good, but where in Balong Empire can we find someone who would make him hesitate?"
Nangong Ming confidently said to Nangong Ao, "Family Head, Su Ziyi and Su Ruyi are our bait. These two women had an ambiguous relationship with Zhang Hao back in Demon Wild Forest. Their relationship with that scoundrel is still decent. I believe as long as they are present, that scoundrel will take the bait."
"But can you find them quickly? Our Nangong Family doesn't have time to wait any longer." Nangong Ao frowned.
Nangong Ming quickly said, "Family Head, this Disciple is confident. Before this Disciple entered the Demon Wild Forest, I saw the whereabouts of the two women. They were clearly also looking for that scoundrel."
Nangong Ao hesitated slightly. He found it hard to believe that someone so decisive in killing and so ruthless would risk himself for two women he had only known for a few days. However, at this moment, he had no other good options. The Ancestor didn't know when he would come out of seclusion. He couldn't just keep waiting.
"Alright, Nangong Ming, you will handle this matter with Seventh Elder. If you succeed, you will be credited with a merit." Nangong Ao looked at Nangong Ming, finally making up his mind.
Nangong Ming was overjoyed and said to Nangong Ao, "Family Head, this Disciple will definitely complete the mission."
"Go!" Nangong Ao waved his hand.
Nangong Ming turned around, a hint of sinister triumph in his eyes. He muttered, "Su Ziyi, Su Ruyi, don't blame me. Blame yourselves for being blind, daring to refuse This Young Master, yet throwing yourselves into the arms of that little scoundrel."
Outside the Demon Wild Forest
Su Ruyi, Su Ziyi, Dai Dacheng, and Bai Xiaojun had been observing from here for the past two days.
However, the exit of the Demon Wild Forest was sealed. They couldn't enter at all.
Su Ruyi said to her older sister Su Ziyi, a little worried, "Sister, how do you think Zhang Dage is doing now? It's been two days."
Seeing her younger sister Su Ruyi's worried expression, Su Ziyi consoled her, saying, "Ruyi, don't worry. No news is perhaps the best news. It proves that Zhang Hao should be fine right now."
Su Ruyi thought about it. What her sister said made sense.
"It's getting dark, Ruyi. Let's go back!" Su Ziyi said to Su Ruyi with a smile.
Su Ruyi saw that the sky had indeed darkened. So she nodded and said, "Okay, Sister. Ruyi will listen to you. Let's go back first and inquire about Zhang Dage's news tomorrow."
Dai Dacheng and Bai Xiaojun also sighed. Although they were grown men and didn't show it on their faces, they were also very worried about Zhang Hao's situation.
"Hahaha, you want to leave now? Too late!" A triumphant voice sounded in the ears of the four.
Su Ziyi, Su Ruyi, Dai Dacheng, and Bai Xiaojun turned to look. They found Nangong Ming walking over with ten people from the Nangong Family.
Su Ziyi looked at Nangong Ming, who seemed ill-intentioned, and frowned slightly, saying, "Nangong Ming, what do you mean?"
Nangong Ming looked at Su Ziyi and smiled slightly, "What do I mean? This time, I've come to invite the four of you to come with us. How about it, will you do us the honor?"
A Middle-aged man beside him asked indifferently, "Are they the two women you mentioned?"
Nangong Ming quickly said, "Seventh Elder, these are Su Ziyi and Su Ruyi. They are both that scoundrel's lovers. As long as we capture them, it will make that little scoundrel hesitate, fearing for their safety. This will be greatly beneficial to our Nangong Family's plan."
Seventh Elder looked at Su Ziyi and Su Ruyi, a cold expression on his face. He said to the Nangong Family Disciples behind him, "Take them down!"
Seeing the Nangong Family Disciples surround them, Su Ziyi shouted loudly, "We are from the Su Family, how dare you?"
Seventh Elder sneered, "It would be something if your Su Family Head came out, but you are still too green."
Although Su Ziyi, Su Ruyi, Dai Dacheng, and Bai Xiaojun fought back, they were outnumbered. Moreover, there was a Martial King in front of them. Their resistance was meaningless.
"Pah, Nangong Ming, you're too despicable." Su Ruyi said to Nangong Ming with extreme anger.
Nangong Ming said triumphantly, "I am despicable, what can you do about it?"
Su Ruyi was extremely fearful at this moment. What she feared most was not her own safety, but that she had implicated her sister, Dai Dacheng, and Bai Xiaojun. Furthermore, the other party actually wanted to use them to threaten Zhang Hao. If Zhang Hao were to suffer any harm because of this, she would be the sinner. At this moment, Su Ruyi finally understood the great price of her willfulness.
"Don't worry, Zhang Dage will definitely not fall for your scheme." Su Ruyi screamed while struggling.
Seventh Elder looked at Su Ruyi and said indifferently, "Originally, I was a little worried, but now This Elder is even more confident. I believe with you here, that fellow will definitely take the bait."
Su Ruyi: "..."
At this moment, someone was bathing inside the Demon Wild Forest. Of course, it wasn't a beautiful woman bathing this time, but a pure man.
Zhang Hao finished bathing and got out of the pool. He muttered, "Damn it, so someone put Fire Scale Powder on Young Master. No wonder the noses of the Ten Great Guardians were as sensitive as dogs that time, finding Young Master so easily."
However, Zhang Hao went through the people he had encountered and finally determined that the biggest suspect was Nangong Ming. Because only he was from the Nangong Family and was most likely to deal with him. At this moment, he somewhat regretted why he had shown mercy back then. It would have been better to just kill him directly. This time, if not for Little Dragon reminding him, he would still be in the dark until now.
"Little Dragon, how are the helpers you've found in the Demon Wild Forest doing during this time?" Zhang Hao looked at Little Dragon and asked.
Little Dragon shook his small head, a bit dejected, "Boss. Only three forces are willing to help me, but their ranks are too low. There aren't many Wang Beasts, the vast majority are below Wang Beast level, and there are less than five thousand subordinates."
Zhang Hao frowned. Although five thousand was enough to contend with the Nangong Family, it was still insufficient to completely annihilate the Nangong Family members.
Right, it seems Young Master still has something unused.
Zhang Hao seemed to remember something and took out a palm-sized, token-like object. It was the Beast Taming Token that had dropped when he killed the Demon Dragon in the Shenlong Secret Realm back then, resulting in a crazy explosion of loot.
