The caretaker, Li, left the house and sprinted towards the headquarters of the Triad while dialing Lei Yuantu's phone number. With only ten minutes left, he needed to tackle this from multiple angles.

As the leader of the Triad, Lei Yuantu was currently working on cleansing the entire organization's image, which seemed to be yielding some positive results. It was now year-end and also a crucial time for planning the new direction for the upcoming year. Therefore, Lei Yuantu had gathered all high-ranking members of the Triad as well as key leaders from their affiliated companies to have a meeting. This included several senior figures within the Triad who were not actively involved in day-to-day operations but held positions above Lei Yuantu.

"Everyone, I've called you here today because we need to discuss our development strategy for this year." Lei Yuantu appeared to be in his fifties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a tailored suit with hair styled neatly. He didn't look particularly robust but rather slim, giving him an appearance more akin to that of an executive from a multinational corporation than the boss of a criminal organization.

Of course, those who knew Lei Yuantu well understood that treating him as just a businessman would lead to dire consequences!

Cunning yet vicious, wise yet treacherous—this was the most accurate description of Lei Yuantu!

"Yuantu, these past few years under your leadership, we've seen great progress. We old timers have noticed it," a man wearing traditional Chinese clothing with a snowy white beard reaching his chest said: "Your approach has proven successful; pure black market operations aren't sustainable in the long term. The future belongs to those who can balance both worlds. To be honest, when you first chose this path, we were skeptical, but seeing how the Triad is thriving now, our hearts are at ease. We've gone through fire and water for the Triad; it's our home, and none of us want our home to be anything less than powerful."

Lei Yuantu adjusted his glasses, then said earnestly: "Uncle Mo, thank you for your trust. Your words have warmed my heart,"

Cured, even more motivated."

Vice-Chairman Mo chuckled: "Yuantu, your tongue is still as sharp as ever! Even old fellows like us are delighted to hear you!"

This Vice-Chairman Mo's full name is Mo Junhui. He was a key figure who fought alongside the previous generation’s Triad boss and became irreplaceable in the Triad hierarchy after the previous boss passed away. Now that he is over seventy, though he no longer handles day-to-day affairs of the association, his prestige remains intact. When Li Yuantou encounters issues, he would always consult Mo Junhui for advice. This is not only out of politeness but also to learn from a senior.

At this moment, Li Yuantou's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and his eyebrows furrowed slightly.

The Butler Li, Li Muhao.

Isn't he always with my son Why would he suddenly call me

By instinct, Li Yuantou felt that something was amiss. Could it be that something happened to my son Li Yinglong But there were so many seniors present; if I answered the phone now, it could seriously damage my image.

Seeing Li Yuantou hesitate while his ringing phone echoed in the room, Mo Junhui stroked his beard and said with a slight smile: "Answer it. There might be an emergency."

Lǐ Mùháo was anxiously waiting on the other end of the phone. Upon connecting, he immediately said, "Master, something’s wrong! The young master has been kidnapped!"

"What Kidnapped Who would be so bold" Lí Yuǎntú felt a rush of blood to his head upon hearing about his son being kidnapped and slammed the conference table.

"Master, time is urgent. I won't go into details. The kidnapper has already issued a statement: if you don’t arrive at the scene within ten minutes, he will break one of the young master's fingers every minute!"

"Such audacity! Where are you now" Lí Yuǎntú hadn’t heard such arrogance in a long time. His rage turned to laughter, but there was something sinister about it.

"The young master’s office is very close to our headquarters." Li Muhao stopped walking: "Master, time is of the essence. Please hurry— I’m not his match!"

"Even you can’t handle him" Lí Yuǎntú was taken aback! He knew better than anyone else how capable Li Muhao was; Hong Kong’s top five experts had met their match, so who could it be And why would he act with such audacity

"I’ll see what kind of methods this person uses to kidnap someone on my Triad's territory!" Lí Yuǎntú hung up the phone, his face darkening.

"What’s going on" Actually, Mò Jùnhuī had already guessed that something was amiss from Lí Yuǎntú's phone call. Clearly, it was the Triad’s "young master," Li Yinglong who had been kidnapped. To be honest, Mo Junhui and a few others thought highly of Lí Yuǎntú but were disdainful of Li Yinglong; this wastrel had been damaging the reputation of the Triad for so long. If Lí Yuǎntú didn’t step in to discipline him, the historically significant Triad would eventually fall apart because of Li Yinglong!

"My son, Li Yinglong, has been kidnapped." Li Yuantu had no interest in further explanations. He said, "Sorry everyone, please wait here for a moment while I handle the issue."

If even Li Muhao couldn't be his opponent, then Li Yuantu was planning on taking along his few bodyguards who were sent to America’s mafia to train at great expense; not only did they have excellent martial skills, their shooting accuracy was unparalleled. Li Yuantu believed that no matter how proficient someone's kung fu might be, it wouldn’t escape the bullet, especially when multiple people fired simultaneously!

"Such an event actually happened! This is a blatant provocation against the Triads!" Mo Junhui and several old fellows glanced at each other and said, "We should go over there too. If we've been absent for so long, someone might be thinking they can act high-handedly in front of the Triads!"

Li Yuantu was quickening his pace as he walked forward when he heard Mo’s words that he wanted to accompany him. He felt touched initially, but the following sentence made him stumble and nearly fall; did this old man really have senility What kind of nonsense was it to say such a thing How could anyone be high-handed just because one hadn’t been around for some years

Even though Li Yuantu knew that Mo Junhui might not have meant anything by his words, what the speaker had said didn't sit well with the listener. Anyone who heard these words would feel rather unpleasant.

"Let's go and take a look together!" A group of people thumped the table in unison as they called out.

Wang Zheng was very clear that there were a large number of Triad members heading towards them, but he showed no signs of tension. Instead, he sat on Li Yinglong’s chair and looked at his watch while saying, "Mr. Li’s eldest son, you have one minute left before your finger will be broken; I’m quite curious to ask how this feeling of waiting is." and third-rate companies follow suitStanding opposite with an excited expression, Secretary Wang Qunsheng said to this group of city leaders: "We must mobilize all policies and personnel to provide t...
