Chapter 160: Chapter 156: Unwilling

Translator: 549690339

After a careful analysis of the power structure within the Marquis’s mansion, you would clearly find that Mi Hou, as the second son of the clan leader, functions merely as a figurehead or a mascot, as all affairs big or small within the mansion are handled by Li Shaoyuan.

Even if Mi Hou stays out of sight for a year, the industries under the jurisdiction of the mansion would still operate properly. However, if Li Shaoyuan were to disappear for some time, chaos would likely ensue in the mansion. It would be some time before things would return to normal.

“So, this person is our target,” Tang Luo took out a portrait of Li Shaoyuan from his bosom and placed it before them.

Elder Xu looked at the portrait, his face filled with confusion. “Target? What target?” he asked.

“Once we capture him, Mi Hou will release the hostages,” replied Tang Luo nonchalantly.

This made Elder Xu even more at a loss, “Didn’t you say that the southern part of the city is under the constant surveillance by Spirit Beasts? How will we capture him?”

Tang Luo did not reply and instead directed his gaze toward Gong Zheng.

“The young master suggests that I should lure Li Shaoyuan out?” Gong Zheng’s face turned gloomy. It was not that he couldn’t carry out the task, but this move was bound to offend Mi Hou. As for what would happen to his widow and orphan after his death, he was rather hesitant about accepting Tang Luo’s plan. “Is there a problem?” asked Tang Luo, indifferent to his troubled expression.

Gong Zheng considered for a moment, clenched his teeth with his eyes shut, “No problem!”
