Chapter 122
122 The Overlord Chen family
Standing at the gate of a town that seemed prosperous, the couple were not seen by others since they used the domain to cover themselves.
[It sure took us some time to get here, let’s hope we can find those that are sponsoring those bandits allowing them to act in an unbridled manner.] He thought to himself as he stood at the gate of the town.
When others approach them, they instinctively avoid them, but that was not important at all.
It had been four days since Ruruo and Wang leveled the gang base.
He saw something in the gang that didn’t belong there but after some thinking, he started to suspect this town.
There are some symbols used by families and he had seen one when they visited here in the past on their journey.
After seeing it again he had to confirm it before taking any action.
[What are you doing, aren’t we going in?] Ruruo asked from the side.
[Don’t you find this town familiar?] He asked a question instead of giving her the response she wanted.
.....
The question however bewildered her, and she just replied casually, [We have been here in the last. But that is not a big deal, haven’t we been to many towns before?]
She said that looking at him with a frown not sure what he was up to.
He just looked at her and smiled before saying doubtful, [Really?]
[Yeah how could you forget it, even though we never spend much time in this place at that time we still passed by it. With your cultivation you should be able to remember this unless you are intentionally teasing me?]
She asked as she saw he was not answering but rather doing something she didn’t understand.
His perception spread put covering the entire city and seeing this Ruruo was also curious and did the same.
[Why would you spread your perception to cover the entire town, are you that bored?] She thought as she also did the same.
Surprisingly this city was not as it looked on the surface.
Soon her face become ugly since she had also seen what he was seeing.
Below a certain family, the structure was the same ad that of the bandit’s underground dungeon, especially the design, and numerous women were held captive.
This already seemed to prove that his assumptions were correct but in his perception, he also grasped some piece of information about the important figures of the Chen family.
The families in charge of this city seemed to be no different than beasts. Each of them seemed to be doing something shady.
But that did not concern him much, as long as they were not going beyond his borderline.
Ruruo was very angry upon seeing this that she failed to discover what he had, and thus seeing her expression he knew it was no good.
But he was fast in action restraining her and convincing her to calm down slightly but didn’t go ahead to inform her of the reason.
She seemed to be this impulsive whenever she saw something that didn’t seem right.
[Wife, calm down. When doing things think long-term.]
As he said those words he moved towards the city. They had just arrived in the city so they had to move around and find out more about the situation in this place first by asking around.
She seemed to think he was looking down on her as being irrational, especially seeing how he just walked ahead. She rushed to catch ups with some anger on her face. Dissatisfied with the way they handled the situation.
But he just had different thoughts from her, and moving around the town could give him a clear picture of how to solve the problem long term.
He was already sure the families in this place were not good things but the most important thing would be coming up with a way to about causing even more havoc and chaos.
This is the reason he stopped Ruruo, as the couple had no plans of staying in this town to take over, then destroying the structure might not yield any good results.
under the impact of the domain, the couple continued to move slowly unhindered in the city observing.
He soon found out that the Chen family he was investigating was the most tyrannical of the descendants and other activities that conduct all over the city.
Although it didn’t look good for those that cross their paths, he preferred to choose another method to settle this. In the end, he already came up with a method, that was to have the Chen family used as an example only leaving behind the Zhou and the Su family, but with a clear understanding that their power was nothing and acting wildly to the point of colluding work bandits to kidnap women was not something that could be tolerated.
In that case, he had to use the scariest means possible to allow them to understand this truth.
As he had just speculated, the Chen family was indeed more influential in the town and even the other two other families were afraid of them.
Their control was over everything that happened in the town.
The moment the couple saw the women locked up in their dungeons they already decided to make them pay.
And Wang took Ruruo around the city seeing the way the family seemed to be in control of other people:s fates.
Sitting opposite a stall selling noodles, the couple were eating as they covered slowly with the owner.
[Alas... A few years ago a family was destroyed by the Chen family due to a woman there offending their young master. They did not let anyone go even babies that were just a few months old. It was used that the family was almost on equal status with the Su and Zhuo families. It seems the action was to serve as a warning that no one could go against them.]
The couple listened to this and Ruruo was very agitated. She could imagine the situation at that time, and even babies being massacred for no reason. But Wang was calm as an old well as he listened. Not because he was not affected, he already had sentenced that clan.
This action was not something she has expected. After seeing the women in the dungeons of the family, she thought that was savage enough, but then the arrogance of the members was not enough now even other families are destroyed by them due to a little disagreement between teenagers.
Wang only nodded slightly as he listened to this, perhaps in his heart, it made no difference.
He came here to settle a score as his heart wished, but might as well go further and destroy the problem from the roots.
When he heard about the activities of the Chen family three years ago, he then decided to not be polite to them.
Their methods of dealing with problems also gave him some insight on how to deal with the issue.
The Chen family was already on his list and considering he did not view himself as some good person, the number of people he has killed has so many. But this time he was going to do something like this it didn’t even faze him in the slightest.
[Wife, let’s observe a bit more before we make our move] he did not need observing at all, he was going to destroy their strongest support and leave the family as a sinking boat, then e rest would be handled by the other families.
Under constant suppression of the Chen family, they must have been very angry and when an opportunity arises, they wouldn’t miss it.
Time flies, the couple had been in the town for another two days, and at this time huge carriages arrived. That all had the Chen family logo and it seemed the important figures in the family had just returned as he had heard, from spying on the family.
In the streets, many people gave way and avoided the carriages but some still made small whispers.
[Is this the Chen family carriage? I heard the family patriarch had been out for some time, it seems he is back.]
[No wonder all the Chen family elders are standing at the gate ready to welcome him.]
Through the discussions, Ruruo could perceive she finally understood why they had to wait for two more days before taking action.
[It turned out to be them! The husband should I make a move and deal with this scum]
She asked Wang but he raised his arm motioning her to relax first.
[What the hurry, we should let them enjoy this moment. Besides, the family should accompany each other even in the netherworld.]
Wang replied calmly and after that become silent in thought.
Since it was a show, it would be best to let them make it even grander, to not only announce the demise of the Chen family but also serve as a warning when they are gone.
The street heading towards the Chen family was blocked, but this did not bother Wang and Ruruo.
On the contrary, they were just sitting in the restaurant observing the actions of the Chen family slowly.
This fanfare had attracted everyone as they watched from the sidelines.
