Chapter 1111: Chapter 1111: Destroy the Ancestral Hall However, an inopportune phone ringtone shattered the tense moment. The team captain took out his phone to look, immediately turning away to cover the receiver and answer, “Guard Bureau, your orders.” “I… I am indeed at the He Family’s place.” “Alright, alright, Guard Bureau, understood, I’ll return right away.” The few brief words of the squad leader revealed his humility and panic. After the call ended, the squad leader looked angrily at someone in the crowd, “Second Great-Uncle He, why did you call the police without following proper procedures?” Second Great-Uncle was visibly surprised, hurriedly stepping forward to the squad leader and saying in a lowered voice, “Vice Captain, didn’t we agree…” “Second Great-Uncle He, words must not be spoken lightly.” The squad leader frowned with displeasure and waved his hand to order the squad to retreat. Before leaving, the squad leader cautiously glanced at He Chen. It wasn’t clear if it was an illusion, but he seemed to bow slightly, showing a hint of flattery. The police personnel came and went hastily, leaving the vast ancestral hall backyard silent. Everyone pondered the deeper meaning, but none believed it had anything to do with He Chen. After all, a despicable illegitimate child could only resort to underhanded tactics. Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, the clouds covering the moon in the darkest moment just before dawn. Yun Ling finally arrived late with Rong Manli. After hours of confrontation, the people of the He Family were all exhausted. But when they saw the limping Rong Manli with a broken arm walking in, many gathered around, “Madam… Madam, how are you?” ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 “He Chen, you’re simply too much, you won’t die a good death!” Several uncles cursed at He Chen angrily, finding themselves at a loss for actions beyond that. At this moment, He Chen lazily nestled in the Taishi Chair, facing the He Family’s onslaught alone, but the more that happened, the deeper and more intense his smile became, “Don’t tell me you got stuck in traffic at three in the morning.” Yun Ling coughed awkwardly, “She lost too much blood and was just taken to the hospital for an emergency transfusion.” If He Chen hadn’t insisted on her staying alive, he wouldn’t have bothered about Rong Manli’s survival. Upon hearing this, He Chen sneered lightly, “The Mercenary Group is so compassionate now? Can’t you just tie a rope for excessive blood loss?” “I’ll tie it next time.” Yun Ling sheepishly rubbed his nose, obedient like a younger brother. “What? Mercenary Group?” The elder uncle looked nervous, cautiously staring at Yun Ling, “Which Mercenary Group are you from? Whatever he’s paying, our He Family will pay double!” Still daring to mention money to him?! Yun Ling was already frustrated from this stumble, if He Chen hadn’t yet ordered action, he would have shot this bunch of He Family bumpkins dead long ago. “Double?” Yun Ling, shrouded in murderous aura, glanced sideways at the elder uncle, pulled a gun from his pocket and spun it on his finger, “Your He Family should settle the first payment before even mentioning double the price.” The He Family didn’t understand, He Huatang rubbed his aching forehead with one hand, “When did the He Family owe you any commission?” Yun Ling nonchalantly shook his leg, gesturing towards Rong Manli, whose face had turned chalk-white and stood unsteadily, “You should ask your wife?” Rong Manli’s broken arm was already numb with pain, the strength drain from excessive blood loss caused her body to sway incessantly, “Master, how could I have engaged the Mercenary Group?” Yun Ling stepped forward a bit, cocked the gun with a click, “Old woman, you dare to do but not admit? I have banking records showing your thirty million deposit, have you forgotten?” “You’re He Chen’s accomplice, forging a fake bank statement is no big deal, right?” Rong Manli managed to buy the He family’s support with just a few words. This is a trust and understanding formed over years; the Matriarch’s words naturally carried more weight than He Chen and the Mercenary Group. He Huatang looked gently at Rong Manli, holding her only remaining left hand, and turned back to ask the housekeeper, “Has the doctor been called over?” “The doctor is arriving soon.” The housekeeper spoke while urging the servants to quickly bring over a chair, sweeping his gaze towards He Chen, filled with disgust. This is the self-proclaimed prestigious He Family, accommodating nearly fifty servants but unable to tolerate a single He Chen. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from within the quiet ancestral hall. Listening closely, the voice sounded quite familiar. Avoiding the scene for a long time, Yin Mo finally walked out holding a phone. The screen glowed white, showing a scene in a coffee shop in a mall in Nia State. —Did you think I came to Nia State today just to drink coffee? —Mr. Yun, here we meet again. —Mr. Yun, this thirty million is my sincerity. After the task is completed, I’ll personally deliver another fifty million to you. —How do you plan on handling it? —The worse the better, Mercenary Group must have countless ways to torture people, just don’t let him die easily. Every word and sentence was uttered by Rong Manli herself. The surveillance video clearly recorded the scene of Rong Manli meeting Yun Ling in Nia State. Although the surveillance distance was far, it shouldn’t have been heard so clearly. But with Yin Mo’s audio processing, nothing remained hidden. At this point, an eerie silence hung around the ancestral hall vicinity. Yun Ling stole a glance at the calm demeanor of He Chen, noticing his lack of displeasure, easing a bit of his own inner anxiety. This damned He Family, might as well be destroyed. After the video finished playing, Yin Mo looked unwaveringly at Rong Manli, “If I were you, I wouldn’t hire a hitman in a public place.” Rong Manli appeared slightly panicked, enduring the dizzying pain, she glanced sideways at He Huatang, “Master, I…” “Well done.” He Huatang’s bottomless defense sparked whispers. He gazed coldly at He Chen, speaking deliberately, “If it wasn’t for your excessive bullying, why would she resort to such measures?” He Chen bowed his head, lit a cigarette, then blew a cloud of smoke towards He Huatang’s direction, “Old man, remember what you said.” Rong Manli seemed encouraged, secretly raising her eyes to gaze at He Chen, her eyes filled with a smugness that was particularly glaring, “Ah Chen, we’re all family, why make things so ugly? Why not apologize to your father, and we can pretend…” “Rong Manli, say one more word and I’ll rip out your tongue.” He Chen gestured towards her with his cigarette, then turned around to give orders to the hall, “Destroy it!” While everyone was puzzled, chaos had erupted inside the ancestral hall. Nobody could have imagined that nearly twenty people were hidden inside the dark hall. The altar, plaques, everything visible, was overturned to the ground. The first step to ruin the He Family was to destroy their ancestors they worshipped for blessings. The He Family panicked and rushed inside to stop it, but they were powerless against Ah Tai and Ah Yong.
