Jiang Ning's gaze instantly becsharp.
"Red Cloud!" He stared at the two disfigured faces in front of him after their masks had been removed. It was impossible to tell who they were.
Jiang Ning knew the powerful families of the north had sent these two to sound him out, but he didn't expect them to be connected to Red Cloud! The Red Cloud that he had been investigating all this time! "Looks like I've been moving in the right direction alright," Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes towards the north as if he was staring at someone in the distance. "Just you wait, I'll kill my way into the north soon!" He didn't say anymore and let Brother Gou deal with the two men in black and prepare for Number 18's funeral.
Meanwhile.
Back in the Long house in the north.
Long Ling'er still looked a little fearful.
She had downed several glasses of water already, but her face was still pale.

"Investigate this! Find out who did this!" "I don't care who it is, I'm going to make sure he disappears from the face of this earth!" "Yes, Master!" his men immediately replied politely and left the room.
Long Xiang walked over to Long Ling'er and patted her shoulders as his expression becgentle and concerned.
"It's alright, you're home, so everything will be alright." Long Ling'er looked up at him and nodded without saying anything.
Her face was drained of color and all she thought of was how Number 18 had collapsed.
Someone who didn't know her had protected her with his life because someone had ordered him to.
"Dad, you must find out who this killer is," Long Ling'er said after taking a deep breath. "I owe that man my life, so I must avenge him!" "Don't worry," Long Xiang nodded. "I'll settle this matter." His gaze deepened as he looked very seriously at Long Ling'er. But since she still looked so pale, he quickly tried to console her.
After stime, Long Ling'er started to look a little better.
"You should have taken more people with you to Donghai," said Long Xiang. "I've already made arrangements for at least four bodyguards to go with you wherever you go. Right now, not only is the north in a state of unrest, even the south is problematic." Long Ling'er looked up and there was a tinge of surprise in her eyes.
"Donghai.Js it him?" Long Xiang suddenly asked.
He knew that Long Ling'er had dropped everything to go to Donghai because of that fellow. Long Ling'er would do anything immediately upon hearing the n'Jiang Ning'.
Long Ling'er had told him over the phone that it wasn't him, but Long Xiang asked again.
"It's not him," said Long Ling'er with a bitter smile as she shook her head. "I wish it was him too." Search the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
She couldn't hide the disappointment on her face and tears started flowing down her cheeks.
"Don't be too upset," Long Xiang sighed. "Perhaps he died a long tago." After he had been chased out of the Jiang family and becan exiled son of a powerful family, the most tragic thing that could happen wasn't the fact that he would be homeless. Enemies of the Jiang family would definitely not allow any descendants of the Jiang family to survive.
If they could kill any of the Jiang family's descendants, they would! The north was a very cruel place, and the fight between the powerful families was even worse.
In order to exist, you had to step on others' dead bodies. If others didn't becdead bodies, you would.

When Long Ling'er heard these words, she couldn't hold it n't hold it in om anymore! She hugged Long Xiang and started crying very loudly. She cried so miserably.
"Don't cry, don't cry. My heart breaks when I see you cry." Long Xiang sighed as he patted his daughter's back and tried to console her.
After a long while, Long Ling'er stopped crying, but the but thedisappointment and sadness on her face was still very apparent. Long Xiang had never seen his daughter so upset before.
He was about to say a few more words of comfort when Long Ling'er squeezed a smile out.
"Dad, I'm going back to the office." Long Ling'er didn't say anymore and left.
Long Xiang watched her leave and his heart broke.
He didn't say anything and watched her leave the house.
"Master, Young Mistress must have met
that man. Is it possible that she didn't recognize him? They haven't seen in each other in many years after all." X
