Wow! My wife is beautiful and obedient, everyone envies her!
Chapter 243 The City of Despair is truly in chaos now.
Dunlop did indeed die.
Qi Yuan still remembers last night when he was showing off that he had a new child. Who knew that he would die in the attack last night?
The unexpected happened so suddenly.
"Who will be the next head of the Leopold family?" Qi Yuan asked.
"Logically, it should be Dunlop's eldest son, but his eldest son is out of town on business. If he comes back alive, he might be the head of the Leopold family. If he doesn't come back alive, then Don might be the head of the Leopold family."
Noah's eyes were full of disdain when he said the name Don.
Qi Yuan also had a bad feeling.
Tang En has already fallen out with them. Coupled with Tang En's personality, he is already arrogant enough even before becoming the head of the family. If he becomes the head of the family, wouldn't he be even more arrogant?
Arrogance is not scary; what's scary is who he'll team up with to kill Noah.
When Dunlop was the head of the family, he was patient with Noah for the sake of the balance of the four families. But Don's personality would not allow him to care about any balance. He is probably only thinking about becoming the new king of the North Continent, and then he will break the balance and cause trouble.
"If Don becomes the head of the Leopold family, how much trouble will it cause us?" Qi Yuan asked.
"It's very troublesome. The four major families could unite to deal with outsiders before, but the head of the Don family will join forces with outsiders to deal with us. In addition, we don't know how many of those well-trained outsiders from last night are still around. Also, the fact that I didn't know that Bartlett and those outsiders infiltrated Juecheng means that someone from one of the four major families is definitely helping them. The worst case scenario is that someone in the Federation is also involved."
The four families each manage a region. If anyone joins forces with Bartlett to cover her entry into the Forbidden City, it means that someone from one of the four families has already betrayed them.
With a traitor emerging from the seemingly balanced four families, even if Noah desperately wants to kill Bartlett, he still has to be wary of someone stabbing him in the back.
Qi Yuan never expected things to become so serious; without realizing it, a traitor had appeared among them.
"Can't we kill Bartlett now?" Qi Yuan asked.
“We can’t do it openly, we have to do it secretly. I’ve already sent assassins to kill Bartlett in secret, but Bartlett seems to have anticipated what I’m going to do. He hasn’t given me a single chance since last night. Actually, I wanted to kill him last night, but unfortunately I only managed to wound his left shoulder.”
Bartlett was someone Noah absolutely could not let live, no matter what.
Little did anyone know, Bartlett already knew how everyone viewed her and managed to protect herself well amidst the chaos.
The chaotic environment didn't kill anyone, and now the other party is even more afraid of dying.
"Do you think it could be Sera?" Qi Yuan asked rhetorically. "Do you remember the bet she made with you last night?"
Noah shook his head. "Lennon was injured in last night's attack. Sera may scold her brother harshly, but he's the one she loves most. So, whatever she's planning, she would never put Lennon in danger. Among the heads of the four great families, she's the most naive, and of course, I'm the most handsome."
It's fine to praise others, but Noah would still praise himself to prove that he was better than them.
Qi Yuan was at a loss with him.
Even when discussing such a serious topic, they still manage to be a little playful.
"Lennon was injured too?" Qi Yuan asked.
Noah nodded. "There were quite a few casualties last night, mainly because of those guys who suddenly broke in and brought heavy weapons that scared us. Of course, after those guys were killed, I took their weapons and had the research team replicate them."
The distance between continents is still too great. Apart from the Eastern Continent, the people of the Northern Continent know very little about the people of other continents, which is why they suffered such heavy losses last night.
"Is Juecheng unsafe these days?" Qi Yuan asked.
Noah sighed helplessly, "Yes, baby, you should stay home and behave yourself these next few days. Don't go out unless necessary. What I'm most worried about right now is that there are still some guys from other continents who haven't been caught. If they run away and cause trouble, at least thirty people will die at their hands, given the weapons they have."
Qi Yuan nodded and said nothing more.
The unexpected entry of a disruptor was something Noah hadn't anticipated.
Noah is about to get busy again in order to find evidence to kill Bartlett openly and legitimately.
Before leaving, he told Qi Yuan to take good care of his injuries and not to leave Davis's house unless necessary.
At present, there is no safer place than the Davis family home.
Of course, Qi Yuan was not the type of person who would obediently listen to orders.
After Noah left, he sent Asa to find Nick.
Nick had been reluctant to become Qi Yuan's subordinate ever since. Looking at Asha who came to see him, he asked, "What does Boss Qi want with me so early in the morning? Isn't he injured? He should be taking good care of his injury!"
"Can you please stop being so noisy? It's hurting my ears." Asa looked at Nick with disgust.
Nick looked at his stern face and suddenly leaned closer. "Mr. Asa, did you learn this personality from Boss Qi? Why are you so cold and aloof, always ignoring people?"
"I'm enthusiastic towards everyone, but I ignore you because I simply dislike you," Asha said seriously.
Upon hearing this, Nick instantly felt wronged.
"Why? I think I'm a really nice person, why do you hate me?"
"There's no reason why I've disliked you since the first moment I saw you."
Asa harbors an inexplicable dislike and aversion towards Nick, stemming from a bad first impression, which extends to her current lack of affection for him.
"It's really hurtful. This is the first time I've met someone who hates me so much for no reason. Mr. Asha, you and I are colleagues who worked under Boss Qi. It won't do if we don't get along. Let's try to get to know each other better in the future."
Asa glanced at him indifferently and said, "I don't want to waste time with you. Get out of the car. We're at Davis's house."
As soon as the car stopped, Asa was the first to push open the car door and get out.
Nick stared at his retreating figure, utterly bewildered. "What's going on? Why is he so hostile towards me? What did I do to him?"
Nick really didn't know why Asa hated him so much, and he was determined to find a way to make Asa stop hating him in the future!
With that thought in mind, Nick opened the car door and went into Davis's house.
Qi Yuan was already waiting for him in the living room.
Some people felt that the bandages affected their appearance, so they removed them and only applied gauze soaked in medicine to the wound.
Qi Yuan's forehead, which he bumped, is now swollen like a steamed bun. Underneath a piece of white gauze, it looks even more like a steamed bun.
Seeing Qi Yuan's condition, Nick respectfully asked, "Mr. Qi, are you alright?"
"Nothing serious. Have you gotten any results from the investigation I asked you to last night?" Qi Yuan asked.
Nick thought for a moment and told Qi Yuan what he had found out last night.
Nick's investigation revealed something similar to Noah's initial findings: several outsiders carrying heavy weapons stormed into the banquet hall and caused a disturbance.
However, the place where they appeared was where the banquet symphony orchestra would perform. According to the bodyguards who inspected the place, the people were musicians from out of state. When they came in, they did not find any weapons or anything like that, but they felt that the instruments the other party was carrying were somewhat different.
At the time, I thought the different instruments were due to the different regions, but now I realize that they were weapons that they had disassembled and reassembled to mislead the inspection.
After infiltrating the banquet hall, these people killed the band members.
He used a knife, and his attacks were quick, precise, and ruthless.
Needless to say, the other side came out with weapons and started shooting.
In addition to this information, Nick also brought news that Noah hadn't told him: the eldest son of the Leopold family was dead, and Lina had miscarried from the shock she experienced last night. Therefore, the current head of the Leopold family was Don Leopold.
Qi Yuan had previously told Noah that he was worried that Don would be the head of the Leopold family, and it turned out that Don really was.
The city of Jue is truly in chaos now.
Upon hearing that the Leopold family was now headed by Don, Qi Yuan remained silent for a while before standing up and saying, "Let's go out and find Sherley."
"Mr. Qi, what do you want with Shelley?" Nick asked.
"Don't be afraid. I'm just going to talk to him about some important matters, things that will be good for both of us. Let's go."
Qi Yuan patted Nick on the shoulder, signaling him to relax.
Nick thought to himself: Do I have the right to say no?
Qi Yuan was a domineering boss to him, giving his employees no time to think and simply making them listen to him.
Fortunately, Qi was kind by nature, so working under him didn't necessarily require doing anything out of necessity.
The group arrived at the church by car.
The church was crowded today.
Many people died in last night's attack, and many of those who came here are seeking God's embrace for the souls of their deceased family members.
The church was filled with a somber atmosphere today.
Qi Yuan found a nun and asked her about Xie Li's whereabouts. He eventually learned that Xie Li was in his office, so the three of them headed straight there.
Upon arriving at Xie Li's office, Qi Yuan knocked on the door, and Xie Li's voice quickly came from inside: "Come in."
Qi Yuan pushed open the door and went inside.
Perhaps Xie Li did not expect Qi Yuan to come at this time. When he saw that the person who walked in was Qi Yuan, he immediately stood up excitedly and even went around to the person standing in front of him, trying to use his body to cover the other person's face.
This is like being caught cheating by your husband and trying to cover your tracks.
Unfortunately, the person Xie Li wanted to block was a head taller than him, and the other person's gaze was fixed on Qi Yuan without any fear.
Qi Yuan also noticed the other person's gaze and looked up directly at him.
"Mr. Qi Yuan, what brings you here?" Xie Li asked.
"I came here because I needed to talk to you, Eric. It's been a long time."
Qi Yuan looked at the tall man behind Xie Li and greeted him.
