Chapter 897: Chapter 897: 1 Billion Credited
"This is a bank card. If you come to a decision, transfer the money to this card. You still have...!" Kevin stood up, glanced at his watch, and raised his wrist.
"You should have an hour left to think, because an hour from now, they’ll be leaving the city. Once they disappear, my previous proposal will also be void."
After saying this, Kevin directly walked out.
Owen watched Kevin leave, feeling a bit heavy-hearted: "Butler, what do you think?"
"I need to make a call."
The old butler didn’t answer directly, turning to make a phone call, while Owen leaned back on the sofa, thinking about the Gods Temple, a force he never even knew existed in Europe.
But the old butler was sent by his father and had dedicated his whole life to the Oppenheimer family, so his loyalty was unquestionable.
Therefore, the existence of the Gods Temple should not be doubted.
Offering ten billion Federation Coins to have them deal with that son-in-law, the cost was high enough to make him feel a bit pained, and was that son-in-law really a Dragon King?
Owen’s mind was in a mess.
This was a big deal, and he couldn’t make a decision lightly. Fortunately, the butler didn’t keep him waiting too long, returning with a freshly printed warm document ten minutes later.
"Young Master Owen, this is the information I requested from some old friends. The content is mostly verified by them."
"This Li Feng is likely from the Dragon King, and regarding this Dragon King’s feud with the Issa family, here is all the data. However, that kidnapping event isn’t widely known, but three years ago, during a firefight, the previous Clan Leader of the Issa family was shot dead, and hundreds of key elite members were completely wiped out."
"By the time local police arrived, they only found a pile of exploded munitions and some injured but alive individuals who were arrested, and among these survivors, several were wanted across multiple countries. Now these people are locked up in prison."
"One of the conditions in the kidnapping that occurred in the neighboring city was the demand for the release of these imprisoned Issa family members."
Owen flipped through the document: "If that’s true, Annie should have a blood feud with that son-in-law, so why are they still entangled together?"
"This?"
The old butler couldn’t explain; matters between men and women aren’t so easy to clarify.
Owen tossed the file onto the table: "Butler, is this Gods Temple reliable, is it as powerful as you say?"
The old butler looked at Owen and nodded.
"The Gods Temple emerged from the three major Knight Orders and has significant influence in the Southern Federation mainland, even the Mussolini family from Dali Country has to bow to the Gods Temple."
"Moreover, the Gods Temple has always had conflicts with God’s Hand, constantly at odds with each other. I think that’s also why they approached us voluntarily."
The old butler said.
The Gods Temple came because Li Feng was already an enemy of theirs, so they didn’t mind taking a shot, and if they could kill him, it would be a win-win, no losses either way.
"If I don’t pay this money, will the Gods Temple let that son-in-law leave openly?"
Owen asked.
The butler was stunned: "Young Master, perhaps they will, perhaps they won’t. But if we don’t pay this money, we might offend the Gods Temple, which wouldn’t be good for the family."
This is not a business transaction, and the Gods Temple is not a commercial company.
Owen didn’t respond immediately, sitting on the sofa for a while, but eventually, he made a decision: "Call him."
Kevin went downstairs and directly got into a car.
"Drive!"
Annie turned her head, looking at Li Feng, who removed his human skin mask, revealing his detestable face: "Did you meet with Owen?"
"Why?"
Annie couldn’t understand. Ever since Li Feng rescued her, instead of leaving the city immediately, he came looking for Owen in a car.
"Wanna know?"
Li Feng looked at Annie.
Annie bit her lips, curious but with a voice deep in her heart warning her that this is a devil, not to get too involved with him.
"If you don’t want to say, forget it."
Annie turned her head away, afraid she wouldn’t resist asking more.
"I asked him for ten billion Federation Coins."
As soon as Li Feng spoke, Annie, who had been controlling her curiosity, couldn’t help but turn around when Li Feng finally opened his mouth.
"You asked him for ten billion Federation Coins?"
"Did he give it to you?"
Li Feng leaned back, with a faint smile: "He will."
"How could he just give you ten billion out of nowhere?"
Annie bit her lips, unable to imagine how Li Feng could possibly get ten billion out of Owen.
After all, it’s not a small amount.
And considering his time from leaving the car to returning, it was no more than fifteen minutes in total.
"Heh, wanna bet?"
Li Feng turned his head to Annie, who snorted coldly, turning her face back.
Damn.
How did I lose control again?
The car fell silent, cruising smoothly through the police-filled city until it left the city.
Ding.
Suddenly, Li Feng’s phone chimed. He picked it up and smirked, while Annie peeked over.
"Don’t bother looking; the money just came through."
Li Feng said, dialing a number directly: "The transaction can go through now."
With that said, Li Feng hung up the phone.
Annie looked at Li Feng with her eyes wide but didn’t speak.
"Are you curious?"
"If you’re curious, just ask. Why keep it inside? Suppressing it can hurt you internally."
Li Feng advised.
Annie took a deep breath; if she didn’t ask, she feared she wouldn’t sleep well. She decided to ask, purely to know her opponent.
Yes.
This was about understanding her opponent.
Annie convinced herself, then looked at Li Feng: "I want to know your entire plan."
Li Feng’s lips curled into a wicked smile.
"Do you know of Gods Temple?"
"Of course I know about Gods Temple, one of the three major underground forces, the largest dark alliance, controlling more than seventy percent of the underground trade in Europe, and possessing deep official connections."
"It’s said that behind Gods Temple are several mysterious families from the Southern Federation, and our Issa family has had numerous dealings with them. They’re very powerful."
Annie was naturally aware of the three major powers of the Dark World. Her Issa family was akin to a mouse facing an elephant in front of them.
"From what I know, you seem to have a lot of grudges with this Gods Temple!"
Annie didn’t understand why Li Feng suddenly mentioned Gods Temple.
What does this have to do with Gods Temple?
Li Feng chuckled: "Pour me a glass of wine, and I’ll tell you."
Annie bit her teeth and still turned to pour Li Feng a glass of wine. Taking the wine cup, Li Feng looked at Annie: "Let me teach you a maxim."
"There are no permanent friends or enemies, only permanent interests."
