Chapter 1109 - 1108: Thunderstruck
Chapter 1109 - 1108: Thunderstruck
Tang Rao walked out of Li Qi Qi's room, and Tao Er, like a laser scanner, sized up Tang Rao from every angle several times."Tang Rao, you'd better be honest. Did you do anything to my lady? I'm telling you, if you took advantage of her, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!"
"Little Taozi, do you live by the shore of Pal Yang or something? You're really nosy!"
Tang Rao brushed past Tao Er, not taking her words to heart.
This was the reward he was supposed to get after all his hard work. What's wrong with taking a little advantage? He wanted to take advantage of Li Qi Qi, and he would do it openly. What could Tao Er do to him?
"Tang Rao, you're shameless!"
Tao Er genuinely wanted to spit in Tang Rao's face.
"Whether I'm toothless or not, I'm not telling you, but your miss's sweet lips are truly fragrant."
After speaking, Tang Rao dashed away, but Tao Er squatted on the ground and started to cry.
"Miss, Miss, how could you let that beast Tang Rao take advantage of you? Miss, you've been wronged!"
Li Qi Qi blushed with embarrassment from the conversation outside.
What did he mean by 'Miss's sweet lips are truly fragrant'?
Other than holding hands with Tang Rao, nothing else had happened between them.
Describing Tang Rao with propriety should fit him quite well.
"Brother Tang Rao, I heard you put on quite a show today?"
Leng Pengfei found Tang Rao in the middle of the night, bringing him some fine wine.
As soon as he heard Tang Rao did something big, he went to find him.
"Not at all, not at all, and I have to thank Brother Leng for providing me with the information. Otherwise, how could I direct such a spectacular show?"
Tang Rao was not modest, even praising Leng Pengfei in the process.
"Liu Zhizhi was a tough character. She's dead, but the people behind her aren't. Li Xiong's biological father watched as Li Zhentong killed his son. Do you think he'll make a move?"
Once Leng Pengfei's plan started, it couldn't be stopped. Just like Tang Rao observed, the conflicts within the Li Family were intertwined. Any one of them could be fatal if tugged.
"He'll make a move. If it were me, I would act immediately. Li Xiong's real father is an old man; he should act with some restraint, much calmer than us."
Everything was within Tang Rao's plan, and Leng Pengfei was quite satisfied with the outcome.
As Tang Rao and Leng Pengfei predicted, an unexpected guest arrived at Li Zhentong's place.
This should have been something Li Zhentong could have expected, but he was too confident, thinking the Li Family wasn't that easy to infiltrate.
Unfortunately, he forgot about the cunning ways of a man who had been having an affair with his wife for so many years.
"Li Zhentong, I've come to seek revenge on you. For the lives of my wife and child, tonight I'll use your blood as a sacrifice!"
Li Zhentong, in the bedroom, sensed something was wrong outside and got up immediately but was still surprised by the man's sudden attack and was wounded by a sword.
"Such audacity, trying to take my life, Li Zhentong's life."
He was quick to roll away; otherwise, he wouldn't be standing here talking now.
"Besides your life, I'm also after your whole family's lives!"
Li Zhentong tore away all the blackout fabric from the night market, countless night market fabrics fell from the wall, and the man's face appeared in Li Zhentong's sight.
"Is it you?"
The man knew his identity was exposed, but he didn't care. He intended to take Li Zhentong's life, and dead men tell no tales.
"It's me, aren't you surprised?"
The man laughed heartily at the sky.
"Li Zhentong, how does it feel to wear a cuckold's hat?"
The mention of this infuriated Li Zhentong beyond control.
"Zhou Cheng, is it you, my good brother?"
Li Zhentong went through people who might do such a thing, yet he didn't expect it to be Zhou Cheng.
"That's right, we've been good brothers for so many years. I slept with your wife; surely, you wouldn't mind?"
Inside, Zhou Cheng felt a kind of pleasure rising.
When he first did something against Li Zhentong many years ago, he felt a bit guilty, but after Liu Zhizhi gave birth to Zhou Cheng and her first and only son, who called Li Zhentong 'daddy,' Zhou Cheng felt no guilt anymore.
Li Xiong never called Zhou Cheng 'dad' once in his life, which became a lifelong regret for Zhou Cheng.
"Zhou Cheng, you are the brother I've always protected, yet you treat your brother this way?"
Li Zhentong was nearly having a stroke from high blood pressure due to anger.
"Is that so? Exactly, you didn't seem so upset when acting as a daddy to my son. Your wife being my wife shouldn't upset you."
Years of brotherhood crumbled with such words.
"Enough nonsense, since you came to me, I haven't planned on being polite. Shall we settle this privately or resolve our grudge with a duel?"
Li Zhentong gave Zhou Cheng an option.
"Let's make it quick, right here. Li Zhentong, you're no match for me."
Zhou Cheng was quite confident about defeating Li Zhentong.
"Then let me show you how I will claim your life."
Li Zhentong didn't use a divine artifact.
He transformed both hands into claws with sharp talons, each talon appearing so venomous that they instilled awe.
In terms of intimidation before a mid-god makes a move, Li Zhentong certainly succeeded.
Zhou Cheng, who had planned a sure-win strategy, pulled out the Mystic Iron Divine Artifact he'd forged over the years and aimed at Li Zhentong's weak spot.
Fortunately, he had repaired his hand injury completely while talking to Zhou Cheng.
Li Zhentong's bedroom was too small for both of them to fight, so he burst through the roof, with Zhou Cheng close behind. Li Zhentong didn't stop until he found a flat surface suitable for battling.
"Since you are so eager to fight me, let's do it now, and we'll battle it out."
Li Zhentong's greatest wish was to know who was the man behind Liu Zhizhi. Now that he knew, he was utterly devoid of any sentiment towards Liu Zhizhi and wouldn't show any mercy towards Zhou Cheng.
"Thunderous Wrath from Above!"
Li Zhentong had a Thunder Attribute, and in manipulating thunder and lightning, he was second to none.
From a distance, through the Little Spider's transmitted video, Tang Rao could clearly see all of Li Zhentong's actions.
He had to admit that his current strength was far behind Li Zhentong's; no, it was a whole Pal Yang away.
Dark clouds gathered in the sky, flames erupted, countless lightning strikes came crashing down from the heavens. The thunder that struck Li Zhentong was tempering his muscles and bones, but for Zhou Cheng, who didn't have a Thunder Attribute, it was trying to take his life, even turning Zhou Cheng into charcoal.
Tang Rao genuinely wanted Leng Pengfei to witness this drama too, but only Tang Rao knew how to use the Illusion City now. The Divine Realm was too dangerous; caution was necessary.
"Fight, keep fighting. I'd be happiest if both were grievously injured. Yes, more thunder, oh, if only these strikes could hit me, how thrilling that would be."
