Cultivation Pet Shop

After that filling lunch, all they wanted to do was go back and sleep, but of course they couldn't since they still had to run the store in the afternoon.

Well, they didn't really need to run the store since there were no customers, but Lin Fan still wanted to at least put on a professional display. Not to mention that it would be good to have some alibis for what he was about to do later.

During these first few days, he had had Jiang Zhi Shu and his men keep their heads low, but now it was finally time to act.

After coming back from his trip last night, he had sent a letter to Jiang Zhi Shu outlining his targets. Most of them were all affiliated to the Jiang Family in one way or another.

But the main reason why they could attack them was because these were all forces that were affiliated with a few shady connections, which meant that the Jiang Family would never directly help them. If they just sent a few of their lower ranking members over, Lin Fan was more than confident in dealing with them.

Moreover, these were all organizations that were rather low on the tree when it came to the Jiang Family, so there was no problem if there were a few that were taken out.

Lin Fan's plan was to slowly clip the branches of the Jiang Family to apply pressure on them to make them reveal their plans. He didn't have time or the intelligence network to slowly gain information, so the only thing he could do was apply pressure until they made a slip up.

Jiang Zhi Shu had already led his men to attack a few of the branches that had weaker members. As for the ones that Lin Fan would be joining the attack on, these were all branches that had at least a Platinum Realm Expert or pet guarding them.

As time passed, no one else bought anything from the store. There was no lack of people who came to check it out and there were certainly those that tried bribing Lin Fan with money for another training spot, but Lin Fan didn't budge on this.

When closing time came, Lin Fan put the pets that had been training during the day back into their cages and locked up the store.

Before he headed off, he made sure to bring Song Shu back home first.

While she was slowly getting stronger, she still wasn't at the point where Lin Fan felt assured in bringing her.

And of course he couldn't convince Angela to come since she wanted to stay with Song Shu. For some reason, Angela kept insisting on staying with Song Shu ever since they had come back from the Sacred Rock Realm. It had been like this when they had come back from the planar crack too.

The only reason Lin Fan could think of was what Angela had wanted to tell him about back in the planar crack, but Lin Fan knew that if she had said it, it would have just made it worse for her.

Right now, all he could do was support her and the best way to do that was to let her do what she wanted.

Not to mention that Lin Fan was more than confident in taking care of this himself since he had become much stronger after that trip to the Sacred Rock Realm.

When it came to love, sometimes obsession wasn't the right thing. Obsession was good in some cases, but for a longer relationship, what they were built on was trust.

Or at least that was what Lin Fan had learned from all the shojo mangas that he had read, which was his guilty pleasure.

So after leaving both of them in the place that they had rented, Lin Fan switched into dark clothes before blending into the night.

It didn't take him long to locate Jiang Zhi Shu's group since he still had Brainy's seed in him, which allowed Lin Fan to quickly meet up with them.

Lin Fan didn't have him added to the contacts in his watch and the only way to contact Jiang Zhi Shu was through the manager of his shop. The reason for this was to maintain as much distance between them, so no one would suspect that they were connected.

While that didn't mean a thing right now since no one cared about them, with how Lin Fan's plan would develop, this would be an important thing in the future.

After meeting up, Jiang Zhi Shu revealed a faint smile when he came to greet Lin Fan. After several days of being idle and bottling up the worry inside him, he finally had a chance to vent it to the misfortune of these gangs, but he definitely felt much better now.

When Lin Fan came over, Jiang Zhi Shu said, "Boss, when do you want to do this?"

Lin Fan looked at his watch first before looking up at the sky. It had taken him some time to come here, so it was already getting dark, so there was no problem with starting now.

He actually wanted to get this over with as soon as possible since he knew that the Jiang Family would be sending people out to investigate after over ten different gangs under them had been destroyed. If they stalled any longer, this plan might become even more dangerous, so it was better to take care of this as soon as possible.

Lin Fan nodded and said, "Let's do this now. You guys can go in first and I'll come out when I'm needed."

Jiang Zhi Shu nodded as he said, "Alright." Then he led his men into the office building.

This gang under the Jiang Family was called the Wasp Hive and it was one of the more lucrative businesses that they had since it mainly dealt with lending money. Or to put it more accurately, this Wasp Hive was the den of loan sharks and once they stung, you would never be able to break free.

Lin Fan stood at the back of Jiang Zhi Shu's group as Jiang Zhi Shu led them up to the building.

Naturally as one of the businesses that generated quite a bit of cash for the Jiang Family, they would have improved facilities. Unlike the other gangs that just hung out at bars and pool halls, this one had a proper office building and security guards.

When the security guards saw this large group approaching them, they immediately had one person report this situation in on the radio while the others came forward to stop them.

The leader of the security guards came forward with his hands up as he said, "Gentleman, please turn back. This is private…"

But before he could even finish, he had already been knocked out by the blunt side of Jiang Zhi Shu's spear.

Even if Jiang Zhi Shu was filled with hatred towards the Jiang Family, he still had his wits about him. He knew that these security guards were just hired help for the Wasp Hive, so there was no need to be that cruel to them. They were just trying to do their jobs.

But Lin Fan didn't feel the same way. He felt that since they were willing to accept this job, it meant that they tacitly accepted this organization and their method of business. Since that was the case, they were just as connected as any member of this organization.

The security guards were caught off guard, but they were also well trained.

The Wasp Hive generated quite a bit of cash, so naturally they hired some of the best guards. Most of them were in the Bronze Realm with a few of the team leaders being in the Silver Realm, but they were no match at all facing Jiang Zhi Shu's group.

The guards soon quickly fell to the ground.

After taking care of the guards, Jiang Zhi Shu went up to the building and shattered the glass doors with a single kick. The metal frames of the glass doors flew right into the lobby of the building which was already completely empty.

As soon as the guards had called in to report this group, the building had been evacuated and their main forces had been gathered.

There was only a single person in the hall right now standing by the elevator. This was a man who had his hair swept back with gold rimmed sunglasses in a purple suit. If one had to describe him, he would fit the definition of a gangster to the t.

But the problem was that this man's cultivation wasn't that high, only being in the Bronze Realm.

If he thought that he could stop Jiang Zhi Shu's group alone, that would mean that he must be crazy.

But that man didn't show any fear as he came forward and said, "Gentleman, please turn back now before this gets nasty. I'm sure you don't want to make an enemy of our group."

Jiang Zhi Shu didn't ignore him this time like he had done with the guards, instead he looked right at this man with a menacing look as he said, "Call your boss out now, I want to have a little talk…"

Right before he could finish his words, there were sudden cold glints that appeared in the corner of his eyes.

Before he could finish, there were two men who had jumped out of the ceiling with swords slashing down at Jiang Zhi Shu's neck.
