“Why did things suddenly escalate and turn into a fight?”
…
Ye Wanwan expressed her curiosity as well.
At this moment, Ye Wanwan’s brows furrowed slightly. Ashura and the Nie family are at war?
For what reason?!
Almost immediately, an image of a man appeared in Ye Wanwan’s mind.
Nie Wuming…
Could it be her unreliable older brother causing trouble again, this time even provoking Ashura?
However, upon careful consideration, Ye Wanwan realized that given Nie Wuming’s fiery temper, if he were to really clash with Ashura, he’d probably charge into Ashura’s headquarters and engage in a fight on the spot. Any grudges or conflicts would be resolved instantly by Nie Wuming’s straightforward approach. He wouldn’t drag things out like this and involve the entire Nie family.
“Ashura is being so irrational this time, picking a fight with the Nie family.”
“Exactly, among the Four Great Families, the last one you’d want to provoke is the Shen family, followed by the Nie family. Especially with someone like Nie Wuming in the Nie family’s ranks. The Nie family’s eldest son was once on par with a dog’s trash. Legend has it that within the Independent State, only the Nie family’s eldest son could match up against a dog’s trash. Why would Ashura provoke someone like that?”
“That’s true. The Nie family’s eldest son used to be known as invincible throughout the Independent State!”
“But that was in the past. The current Nie family’s eldest son just spends his days scamming people and hoarding money. I think the Nie family is on the brink of destruction, and he’ll only try to squeeze some money out of the Nie family before running away…”
Ye Wanwan looked at the crowd, feeling a headache coming on. Did they misunderstand Nie Wuming? Did they really understand him…
Her older brother might be strong, but… he’s not very smart. He’s easily fooled and tends to act recklessly. To rely on Nie Wuming to restore the Nie family’s glory… that would be wishful thinking; the Nie family would be long gone.
Soon, Ye Wanwan walked forward.
“Excuse me, is what you just said true? Is the information accurate?”
Ye Wanwan suddenly leaned in with a terrifyingly large face, startling the mercenary, who then recognized the recent celebrity of Red Flame Mercenary Academy. “Ye Wanwan… it’s you! Of course, this information is accurate. Besides, since things have gotten this big, it’s impossible to keep it hidden. Everyone will know soon enough!”
While the student’s words sounded truthful, she still couldn’t believe how Suye Han could be fighting with the Nie family.
Ye Wanwan thought it over but couldn’t understand how Suye Han could be so audacious with the Nie family before they even became related.
Immediately, Ye Wanwan dialed Nie Wuming’s number.
“For contract tasks, press 1.”
“For other tasks, press 2.”
“Doubling the commission for hiring Nie Wuming in person, as well as doubling the commission for hiring Nie Wuming’s team.”
“If you don’t have money, please hang up. Thank you for your cooperation.”
Ye Wanwan: “…”
What the heck, what kind of ringtone is this?
After waiting for a while and receiving no answer from Nie Wuming, unable to stand the annoying ringtone any longer, Ye Wanwan gave up.
…
Meanwhile, at the Nie family.
The area outside the door was filled with Ashura’s people, tense and facing off against the Nie family’s guards.
A man stood outside the Nie family’s door, seemingly melding into the darkness. His ice-cold gaze seemed to contain an uncontrollable beastly instinct, as if he wanted to devour everything, consume it into his stomach, tear it apart, and shatter it.
At this moment, strong figures who usually guarded the Nie family emerged from the shadows. More than a dozen elderly men with white beards appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of the Nie family’s door.
