281: Chapter 0281: Found Out

Upon hearing Duan Shaojie’s words, the elders present couldn’t help but be startled.

Indeed, the situation of the Duan Family was different from the past, and the elders seated here no longer held the power they once had but were left with only the last bit of assets, struggling desperately.

At this mont, the elder seated at the head position suddenly said, “Speaking of which, Shaojie, during this great calamity of the Duan Family, the Three Major Families have joined forces to suppress us, and most of us have been pushed to a dead end, but the resources in your hands don’t seem to have decreased by much?”

Upon hearing the elder’s words, Duan Shaojie sneered, but he put on an extrely wronged expression on his face: “Oh, Big Uncle, your words have deeply hurt .

I’ve been working my fingers to the bone recently, and these past few nights, I haven’t slept well,”

This was indeed no lie.

Duan Shaojie had not been sleeping well these past few nights, and even now, he was carrying two big dark circles under his eyes, looking like a panda, though overall, he appeared vigorous.

His lack of sleep was naturally not due to concern for his family but out of excitent.

In less than three days, the entire Duan Family would be completely under his control!

Without real power, their words naturally carried less weight.

Ignoring that third uncle’s angry bluster, with a command from the Big Uncle, the eting began.

However, they all failed to notice that on a branch not far from the window, soone crouched, and of course, with the cover of night, ordinary people wouldn’t notice this shadow.

The window was not tightly closed, so the conversation inside the eting room clearly drifted out.

Chu Ge sat on the branch, watching Duan Shaojie inside suddenly beco arrogant, chuckled coldly, and shook his head slightly: “Whom the heavens would destroy, they first make mad.

Duan Shaojie, is it because you know I’m backing you that you behave this way, or is there inherently a part of your character that becos insolent once a petty man gains power?”

…

anwhile, on the top floor of an office building on the outskirts of Shanghai, several dozen black-clothed people were sitting around a conference table, seemingly also in a eting.

Only, these dozens of people were all wearing black hoods and their faces were covered by black masks, looking eerie and mysterious.

Sitting at the foremost position was a man wearing a red Ghost Face mask, looking also like the leader of this group.

In the end, it was the red Ghost-faced Man who spoke first: “What’s the situation with the Duan Family now?”

“I don’t know what kind of madness has taken over the Three Major Families, but they have been crazily oppressing the Duan Family recently, and it seems to be with a purpose,” said a man sitting to the right of the red Ghost-faced Man.

This person wore a black mask, but with additional patterns on it, slightly different from the others.

“Purpose?” The red Ghost-faced Man’s gaze turned towards him.

“Yes.” The black Ghost-faced Man stood up, walked to the front of the eting room, where there was a virtual projector displaying an image.

He pointed to the circles and crosses on the image and said, “These marks I’ve made are all the forces that have been hit.

Among them, our Ghost Poison Sect and the Old Master’s trusted followers have suffered the most; the Three Major Families have almost entirely focused their firepower on us, but there is one force that’s an exception.”

“Duan Shaojie!” the red Ghost-faced Man said sternly.

“That’s correct.” The black Ghost-faced Man nodded, pointing to so symbols on the image: “The power resources under Duan Shaojie have hardly suffered any loss, with only a few minor strongholds that are probably just smoke bombs thrown by the opposition.”

At this point, the black Ghost-faced Man paused: “Therefore, we have reason to suspect that Duan Shaojie has co to so sort of understanding with the Three Major Families!”

“Duan Shaojie?” The red Ghost-faced Man stood up, slowly walked to the window, looking down at the cars and pedestrians below, saying coldly: “Humph, these lowly ants of the secular world sure are restless, thinking we really have no way to deal with them?

It’s also ti to make an example out of one to warn the rest!

After all, for those of Ancient Martial arts, maintaining awe is a necessary courtesy.”

anwhile, back in the Duan Family’s eting room, the eting had reached a fierce stage.

It could be said that there were no good people in the entire eting room.

The Big Uncle who sat in the main seat had already proposed a matter, which was for Duan Shaojie to surrender his resources for an even distribution among everyone.

Under the guise of: Rational distribution of resources.

Now that everyone had suffered a heavy blow, there was no reason for you alone to reap the benefits.

Since you still have so many resources in hand, it’s better to put them all out and compensate everyone for their losses.

Although the Big Uncle’s original words were more tactful, the general aning was along these lines.

Faced with such a proposal, Duan Shaojie naturally could not agree.

After unsuccessful negotiations, Duan Shaojie stood up, kicked the chair far away, and then left the eting room.

“This unfilial son, ingrate!”

Hearing the “bang” of the door as he left, the third uncle was so angry that his old face turned red, he slamd the table, and roared in a barely constrained voice.

The Big Uncle sitting in the main seat also had an ugly expression, though he restrained himself from saying anything, he looked in the direction Duan Shaojie had left, his lips moved, but he didn’t speak.

Facing the cool night breeze, Duan Shaojie exhaled deeply, pulling a smile on the corner of his mouth.

A few seconds later, he couldn’t restrain his laughter anymore.

The audacious laughter echoed around him.

He had never imagined he would have a day when he was this bold.

Just thinking about those old n looking displeased with him yet unable to do anything, he felt a refreshing sensation that seed to seep from his marrow.

This feeling was damn exhilarating!

However, while he was still imrsed in this sensation, a voice suddenly ca from beside his ear: “Quite impressive, aren’t we.”

Duan Shaojie’s smile froze on his face, he hastily bent his body slightly, and said in a low voice: “Not at all, not at all, whatever I have now has been bestowed upon

by Mr.

Chu, just now, I could not help but release so emotion having felt triumphant for the first ti in decades.”

Indeed, standing behind Duan Shaojie at this mont was Chu Ge.

Hearing Duan Shaojie’s explanation, Chu Ge imperceptibly nodded: “Hmm.”

In actuality, he didn’t care about whatever mood Duan Shaojie was in, nor did he care about the intrigue among these grand families.

What he cared about was just one thing: the Ghost Poison Sect!

“Have you gathered any information?”

“I have.” Duan Shaojie spoke with utmost respect: “Only, it seems they’ve also caught so wind of what’s happening, so they have already relocated.

But I believe, if this goes on, they will definitely show themselves!”
