Before departing, Xiao Yunlong decided to call Nan Wang Lu Zheng Tong. Firstly, to inform him of the situation, as Lu Zheng Tong was the King of Nan Jiang, and it was a matter of respect.
Secondly, the plan required splitting into two groups. One would head to Jinyue Company, while the other would go to the suburban manor to apprehend the Chuan Long Ridge Master. Xiao Yunlong couldn't be in two places at once.
The manor was undoubtedly heavily guarded by powerful individuals, and it seemed only the elder guardian Meng San could handle such a task.
Upon hearing this, Nan Wang Lu Zheng Tong immediately replied, "No problem, Bei Wang. I will go and invite Senior Meng San to that suburban manor. Send me the specific address."
"Then the Chuan Long Ridge Master is in your hands. You must capture him!" Xiao Yunlong stated.
"Rest assured, if I can't even handle such a small matter, I wouldn't be worthy of being the Nan Wang!" Lu Zheng Tong said seriously.
"After you capture him, bring him directly to Jinyue Company. I'll be waiting there for you!"
Xiao Yunlong hung up the phone and then forwarded the manor's address.
The car roared out of the separate courtyard and swiftly departed from the Nan Jiang military camp.
However, this scene was witnessed by spies lurking in the surroundings, who promptly took out their phones to report to their superiors.
In fact, Xiao Yunlong was well aware that given the current situation in the Nan Jiang military camp, with the influence of the Five Ridges deeply entrenched and many of their trusted subordinate generals within the camp, his movements could not be kept secret.
Therefore, his objective was to reach Jinyue Company as quickly as possible and obtain the ledger as evidence!
Indeed, as Xiao Yunlong's car left the military camp and headed towards Bai Yue, the Bai Yue Ridge Master Yue Bu Cong and the Gui Yun Ridge Master were simultaneously informed.
After some thought, Yue Bu Cong quickly called Gui Yun Ridge Master Miao Ren Cheng.
"You should have received the news, right? That dog Xiao has left the military camp. Judging by his direction, he's heading towards my Bai Yue Ridge!"
Yue Bu Cong snorted and asked, "By the way, did you ask Senior Wu Si to contact the experts from the Iron Sword Sect a few days ago? Did he go?"
Miao Ren Cheng sneered, "Naturally, I contacted them. Moreover, the experts from the Iron Sword Sect have agreed to act. I just informed Senior Wu Si of Xiao Yunlong's departure from the military camp, and Senior Wu Si is on his way back from the Iron Sword Sect!"
Yue Bu Cong quickly said, "That dog Xiao is clearly targeting me this time. He probably intends to make a move against me. Don't let Senior Wu Si and the experts from the Iron Sword Sect return to your Gui Yun City. Have them come to my Bai Yue City immediately!"
"This time, that dog Xiao has brought two Dragon Blood Guard generals, and I just received word that even that old fellow Meng San has made a move. So, Gui Yun Ridge Master, are we not going to completely eliminate Xiao Yunlong? You should also bring your personal elite guards and come to my Bai Yue City. This time, we will ensure that dog Xiao never returns!"
Unexpectedly, Miao Ren Cheng replied, "I won't be going. I still have many urgent matters to attend to here. Don't worry, with Wu Si and the experts from the Iron Sword Sect assisting you, it's definitely not a problem. That dog Xiao won't be able to cause any trouble!"
Although Yue Bu Cong was helpless, he couldn't say anything more. After hanging up the phone, he couldn't help but curl his lips and curse, "What a sly old fox, using me as a pawn. If I can eliminate Xiao Yunlong, fine. But if I can't, do you really think the other ridge masters can remain uninvolved?"
Although he knew Xiao Yunlong was very strong and his Bai Yue Ridge forces couldn't handle him, with Wu Si, the guardian elder, and the experts from the Iron Sword Sect coming to help, the outcome was uncertain.
"Xiao, if you dare to come this time, I will ensure you never return!" Yue Bu Cong gritted his teeth and shouted coldly, then immediately began to prepare.
By the time Xiao Yunlong, who had been speeding from the Nan Jiang military camp, arrived at Bai Yue City, the sky had already darkened.
As winter approached, the weather grew colder, and the sharp north wind howled incessantly, adding an air of solemnity to the atmosphere.
As soon as the car stopped in front of Jinyue Company, Xiao Yunlong opened the door, got out, tightened his military coat, and walked inside.
Zhuge Wushuang and Jun Bufan followed closely. At this moment, Tang Bowen and Pan Chaofeng, who had been hidden in the shadows, quickly approached.
As for Tu Fu and Xuanyuan Qingfeng, they remained at the suburban manor to continue their surveillance.
"Are there any unusual movements inside?" Xiao Yunlong asked as he walked in.
"There are no unusual situations; everything is normal. According to Deputy Officer Zhou Yun, the safe containing the incriminating documents is located in the CEO's office on the top floor of the building!"
Tang Bowen said as he followed behind. Since he had become more proficient in using his internal energy, although his legs could not walk on their own, by using his internal energy for support, he could essentially walk like a normal person.
As soon as they entered the lobby, several security guards rushed over and shouted, "Stop immediately! This is Jinyue Group. It's after working hours, and unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter!"
Xiao Yunlong did not respond, nor did he even look at them. He continued to stand tall and walked briskly towards the elevator ahead.
Seeing this, the security guards stopped talking and directly pulled out their electric batons to charge forward. However, their meager skills were no match for them.
Within a single exchange, they were all knocked to the ground by Jun Bufan and Pan Chaofeng. Just then, the elevator doors opened, and the group walked in, heading directly to the top floor.
"Quick, quickly notify the boss! There are tough guys who have broken in. Their target seems to be the CEO's office!"
The security captain hurried to the lobby, took a look, and without a word, pulled out his phone to make a call.
Arriving at the top floor and standing before the CEO's office door, Xiao Yunlong kicked the door open and walked in.
At this moment, the entire Jinyue Group building was in an uproar. Although it was past seven in the evening, many people were still working overtime.
When everyone heard that someone had broken in and was causing trouble, they were first surprised, then they all sneered dismissively.
"These people are too audacious to dare cause trouble at Jinyue Company. They probably don't know Jinyue Company's background!"
"Although our Jinyue Group is just a gold mining company, its behind-the-scenes boss is the Bai Yue Ridge Master. Anyone who dares to mess with Jinyue in Bai Yue Ridge is tired of living!"
As many employees gathered to watch the commotion, emboldened by their curiosity, Xiao Yunlong had already found the safe in the secret room at the very back of the CEO's office.
"Bring it out!" Xiao Yunlong ordered and then sat down in the CEO's chair.
The safe was not large; one person could carry it out, but there was no key.
"Without a key, how do we open it?" Pan Chaofeng asked.
Xiao Yunlong smiled, stood up, walked to the safe, and raised his hand.
However, at that very moment, the sound of car horns echoed from downstairs. It seemed the boss of Jinyue Group had arrived with a group of thugs.
Soon, a middle-aged man with a potbelly and dressed in designer brands, the patriarch of Jinyue Group, arrived at the CEO's office with over twenty bodyguards and thugs, his face filled with anger.
He was about to open his mouth to yell, but the scene that followed made him instantly dumbfounded.
At this moment, Xiao Yunlong raised his fist and smashed the safe, which was so strong that even bullets couldn't penetrate it, into pieces with a single punch.
"You... who exactly are you?" the Jinyue boss asked in a deep voice. Although he raised his foot, he dared not step forward, clearly shocked.
The twenty-odd bodyguards were also stunned. Smashing a safe with one punch, what did that even mean?
If that punch landed on a person, wouldn't they be pulverized? This was too terrifying!
Xiao Yunlong, too lazy to look at them, ordered, "Examine them carefully and see if these documents and evidence are correct!"
Tang Bowen and Zhuge Wushuang squatted down and immediately began their work.
The Jinyue boss became anxious, gritted his teeth, and shouted coldly, "Friend, it seems you don't know the influential figure behind our Jinyue Group. I can tell you now, my backer is..."
However, before he could finish, Xiao Yunlong directly revealed the Nan Wang Seal and said coldly, "Do you recognize this? Do you think your backer is greater, or is this greater?"
The Jinyue boss was completely dumbfounded. His face turned pale on the spot, and his legs trembled like a sieve from fear.
"Get those irrelevant people outside to leave, then you come over here, find a corner, and squat down. If I'm not mistaken, your backer will be bringing people soon!"
Xiao Yunlong pointed to the onlookers outside.
The Jinyue boss now understood that the other party was most likely here for the Bai Yue Ridge Master. He was not someone who could afford to offend an existence of this caliber.
Swallowing his saliva, he turned and ordered the onlookers to leave, including the bodyguards, then obediently walked over, found a corner, covered his head, and squatted down.
At this moment, Tang Bowen said, "My Lord, after a detailed examination, the documents and evidence are all correct!"
"Very good. Next, we just need to wait for the main character to arrive!"
Xiao Yunlong smiled slightly and then sat back down in the CEO's office chair.
