Super War God in the City

Insla Duchy, Moses Manor, a graceful young man sat at the dining table, where servants were using a set of professional equipment to test the nutritional content of the food and whether it contained any unsafe toxins.

"Master, it's safe to eat," a servant nodded, stowing away the professional equipment.

Just as the young man had picked up his milk, his female assistant Mary, clutching a notebook, respectfully stood by his side.

Glancing at his female assistant from the corner of his eye, he knew she wouldn't disturb him during his mealtime unless it was something of absolute importance.

Setting down his milk, he elegantly said, "Mary, what's the important matter?"

"Master, you can discuss it after your meal," Mary responded respectfully.

"You standing next to me piquing my curiosity — do you think I can still eat? Speak up!" the man said with a smile.

Mary opened her notebook, hesitating before speaking, "Master, in our family-operated Underworld network database, I found an Assassin task that might interest you!"

"Oh?" the man curiously took the notebook.

At his level, almost nothing in the world could pique his interest anymore, unless it involved family affairs or a Third World War were to break out.

As the man took the notebook computer, his usually composed self couldn't help but constrict his pupils, his expression changing slightly but quickly returning to tranquility.

"Mary, what are your thoughts?" the man asked mildly.

"Master, don't you think he looks familiar?" Mary pondered.

"But, he died on Burial God Island two years ago. After that, the Eight-Nation Sky Army conducted a month-long extensive search by sea, land, and air. The team that remained for monitoring stayed there for six months. How could it be?

That was a Super Weapon. Even if he were some kind of god, he would have turned to ashes!" the man shook his head.

"Perhaps it's just someone who looks very similar; we should arrange for someone to investigate thoroughly!"

Mary nodded, "I've already made arrangements, though it may take some time. If it really is him, that would be incredibly unbelievable!"

"People who look alike exist in this world. Perhaps it's his brother or something. If so, there might be a story there — I wonder what his abilities are like," the man said thoughtfully.

Just then, the man's private phone began to ring.

Looking at the unfamiliar number on the screen, the man frowned, "Mary, check this unfamiliar number."

Mary glanced at it, "It's from Huaxia, I will check the details right away!"

The man's eyebrow twitched as he glanced at the information in the notebook. Could it be...

"Mary, never mind about checking!"

After hesitating for a bit, he immediately answered the call.

Located at Danyang Shangguan Yue's Villa, Ling Fan couldn't help but tease upon the call connecting, "I say Ivan, given your family's rules, shouldn't you still be in bed at this time? Why the slow response to a phone call?"

Upon hearing this voice, the man's expression finally changed, or more precisely, he lost his composure!

"What exactly are you?" Ivan controlled his emotions and asked in a deep voice.

Even Mary, standing by, turned serious upon seeing her master's rare loss of composure. If she remembered rightly, the last time her master was like this was upon hearing about the fall of War Emperor Beiming.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, just two years apart and you've already forgotten an old friend? Seems like the ship of our friendship isn't very stable — ready to capsize at any moment!" Ling Fan scoffed.

"Huh~" Ivan sighed internally.

"Is it really you?" At this point, Ivan had confirmed the identity of the person on the other end, and although he was hardly willing to believe, he had to admit that the caller was indeed Ling Beiming.

Because in this world, no one else would dare speak to him like that; that familiar, infuriating tone could only belong to that one person.

"Heh, disappointed, huh? That incident from two years ago—you had a hand in it, didn't you?" Ling Fan said with a laugh over the phone.

Ivan's back went cold upon hearing this; no one else in the world could give him that feeling.

"Cough, cough... Beiming, that's not funny at all. It has nothing to do with me. Don't talk nonsense about grasping at straws!" Ivan said lightly.

"However, that matter from back then definitely had something to do with 'Freedom Island'. At least, that super weapon isn't something ordinary people could get their hands on!"

Ling Fan chuckled lightly, "We'll settle that old score slowly. As long as it wasn't you, that's fine. Let me tell you something—there's a bounty on me on your family's lousy website. You'd better take it down or deal with it. For now, I'd rather not reveal myself!"

"Uh..." Ivan was at a loss for words.

"Beiming, there's no precedent for this!"

Ling Fan sneered over the phone, "Pah, spare me that. It's just because you haven't dealt with me before. How's the research on the Sun God that I sent to your family going? Did you figure out the secret from Starry Sky Beyond?"

Ivan, who had just calmed down, lost his composure again, "Damn it, you've studied it? That's our family's sacred object. Did you tamper with it? What else do you know?"

"Pah, your family's sacred object, my foot. It's not even yours; I found it. Besides, if it were yours, wouldn't you realize if I had tampered with it?

And why should I tell you what I know!" Ling Fan said with a snort.

Ivan took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down again, feeling somewhat annoyed. His family's upbringing absolutely didn't allow any loss of composure.

But, every time he faced Ling Beiming, he couldn't control himself; this guy always knew how to provoke him.

"Alright, I can handle that for you, but I have a question. How did you escape back then? I can't imagine you surviving in that situation!" Ivan regained his past elegance.

"Don't you think you're asking too many questions? I'm busy here. I'll catch up with you when I get a chance!" Ling Fan said indifferently and then hung up the phone.

Ivan gripped the phone, listening to the busy signal, his mind still somewhat dazed. Could this guy really still be alive?

"Master, is it really him?" Mary couldn't help but speak up.

"Hmm, this guy is truly amazing. Handle his information. He said he doesn't want to be exposed right now, so help him out.

Soon, the world will get interesting again. It looks like there will be some entertainment to watch, and Beth is probably going to have nightmares very soon!" Ivan smiled as though bathed in a spring breeze.

Mary took a deep breath, "Incredible, could he be a god? The underworld is about to stir!"

Remembering what Ling Fan had just mentioned on the phone about the Sun God, Ivan immediately ordered, "Prepare the car, I need to go to the family headquarters to see Grandpa!"

Inside Shangguan Yue's villa, having finished his phone call, Ling Fan finally relaxed. If anyone familiar with the underworld's structure had heard his previous phone call, they would have been utterly shocked.

The Ivan he had just been speaking with was the heir to the World's Number One Family, the legendary Mysterious Emperor, War Emperor Beiming, with connections spanning the entire globe.

It was not without reason that governments around the world feared him. Those few phone calls provided a glimpse into that!

The two women saw that Ling Fan had finally finished his calls, each in a language they didn't understand.

"Uh... Ling Fan, who were you just calling?" Li Shishi asked like a curious child, unable to hold back her inquiry.

"Oh, it's nothing, just a few friends I met while washing dishes abroad!" Ling Fan casually fibbed, knowing some things weren't for these women to know.

"Yeah right!" Li Shishi stuck out her tongue, knowing he didn't want to tell.

It was hard for her to believe Ling Fan's story. What kind of restaurant was so incredible that people from several countries would scramble to wash dishes there?

Ling Fan closed the website and put away the laptop, thinking of the Tang Family, and couldn't help but get angry. If it weren't for the Tang Family, how could he have been exposed so soon?

"Damn it, I'll have to deal with the Tang Family sooner or later. Keeping them around is always troublesome," Ling Fan muttered to himself.
