Chapter 278: A Burst of Fury, All for the Sake of a Blue-Faced Friend
He had to devise a development plan for the Golden Dragon Gang.
The Golden Dragon Gang was only slightly famous in the Golden Triangle. He had to rapidly grow and strengthen the gang within a short period.
He needed enough power to protect Hua Bao and ensure he wouldn’t be a burden to her.
Given Hua Bao’s nature, she probably wanted nothing more than to announce their relationship to the world.
But fearing that going public might put him in danger, she kept it hidden.
When Lin Xuan left the Black Web, he sent an English message to the computers at the Black Web’s tech department.
[Your Black Web is nothing special.]
A group of white guys in the Black Web: ???
What?
What’s going on?
Being able to infiltrate a single sentence into all the computers in their tech department meant… their Black Web had been hacked.
And they hadn’t even noticed.
This realization instantly threw the people of Black Web into chaos.
The tech department supervisor panicked, “Strengthen the defense system immediately, and find out who did this!”
Their Black Web had become the main online route for underground transactions over the years mainly due to its confidentiality.
If word got out that their Black Web had been hacked, it would be disastrous.
Half an hour later, Lin Xuan emerged from the space and tossed a development plan for the Golden Dragon Gang to Wang Ba.
“Just follow what’s written here. Also, I’ll order a batch of bulletproof clothes for you.”
“Yes, Lord of the Gang.” Wang Ba flipped through the content and his eyes lit up.
Brilliant!
This plan was absolutely brilliant!
It included not only martial arts and firearms training but also reforms within the gang.
Following this, the Golden Dragon Gang would surely develop.
Wang Ba excitedly said, “Lord of the Gang, please rest assured. I will definitely follow what’s written.”
“As for you two.”
Lin Xuan’s gaze fell on Cheng Da and Cheng Er.
Wang Ba thought Lin Xuan was dissatisfied with Cheng Da and Cheng Er’s abilities and quickly said, “Lord of the Gang, please rest assured. I will drive these two useless fellows out of the gang.”
“Aren’t you two going to scram?”
Wang Ba coldly stared at Cheng Da and Cheng Er.
With a ‘thud,’ they knelt down.
Cheng Er cried with snot and tears streaming down his face, “Lord of the Gang, Second Master, please give us another chance. We will behave well from now on.”
“Please, Lord of the Gang, show mercy.”
To demonstrate their sincerity, Cheng Er and Cheng Da started knocking their heads on the ground while kneeling.
Lin Xuan: “???”
They sure have wild imaginations.
When did he say anything about kicking them out of the Golden Dragon Gang?
“Alright, get up. I never intended to kick you out of the Golden Dragon Gang.” Lin Xuan pinched his temples, feeling a headache coming on.
“Thank you, Lord of the Gang!”
Cheng Da and Cheng Er sighed in relief.
“You two will follow me from now on.” Lin Xuan said.
“Yes.”
Cheng Da and Cheng Er immediately agreed without hesitation, their faces beaming with joy.
The Lord of the Gang’s martial arts were so powerful; following him would surely allow them to learn many good things.
“Lord of the Gang,” Wang Ba frowned, “These two are too foolish. Their combat skills are average. Following you might not be suitable. Perhaps I should send some clever ones to protect you?”
Cheng Da: “….”
Cheng Er: “….”
Lin Xuan said, “No problem, just train them properly.”
He valued their integrity. He needed to keep some trustworthy people by his side.
After handling the Golden Dragon Gang affairs, Lin Xuan glanced at the time. It was already past seven.
Lin Xuan prepared to take out his phone and contact Su Hua.
However, there was nothing in his pocket.
“Lord of the Gang, what are you looking for?” Cheng Er saw Lin Xuan’s anxious expression and couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“Did any of you see my phone?” Lin Xuan asked with a furrowed brow.
Cheng Er scratched his nose and replied, “I saw your phone fall when I grabbed you.”
Lin Xuan frowned deeply.
If his phone can’t be reached, Hua Bao would surely worry about him. He better contact Hua Bao as soon as possible.
“Give me the phone.” Lin Xuan asked Cheng Er for the phone and immediately called Su Hua.
Su Hua’s phone was out of battery and showed a shutdown status.
He then called Jiang.

Near the Hai Bu Strait.
Su Sheng was rolling around in bed with two beauties.
As explosions echoed across the sea surface, the bright flashes illuminated half the sky.
Even the villa where Su Sheng lived shook several times.
“Sheng Brother, could that be an explosion? I heard what seemed like an explosion from the sea.” One beauty curiously asked, “I wonder what exploded.”
Originally enthusiastic, Su Sheng immediately lost interest. He hurriedly pulled on his pants and walked outside.
“What’s happening? What exploded?” Su Sheng grabbed one of his subordinates and asked.
He remembered that his batch of arms was supposed to arrive near Hai Bu Strait around this time.
Could it be…
No, that’s impossible.
Su Sheng shook his head.
His confidentiality work was excellent, and his defenses were solid. There was no way it could be destroyed.
“You, go check immediately, find out what exploded!” Su Sheng anxiously ordered.
“Yes.”
Just as the subordinate left, another rushed in panic.
“Bad news.”
That subordinate panted, “Young Master, bad news.”
“What bad news? Speak quickly!” Su Sheng said coldly.
“Our arms…exploded.”
“What?” Su Sheng widened his eyes, unable to believe it, “You mean, our arms…exploded?”
“Yes.” The subordinate lowered his head, “Everything on those two ships has been completely burned. The flames reached the sky.”
“How is this possible?”
Su Sheng grabbed the subordinate’s shoulders, “Are you lying to me? My security is so good, and I’ve assigned so many people to protect it. How could it still be burned?”
These were goods worth twenty billion.
Most of his savings!
He gambled everything on this.
And it ended up being burned…
The subordinate lowered his head, not daring to speak.
“Who, who did this?” Su Sheng gritted his teeth.
If he found out who did it, he would rip them apart piece by piece!
“I don’t know.” The subordinate trembled as he answered.
No matter how Su Sheng thought, he never expected that Su Hua suspected he might have captured Lin Xuan.
Hua Bao’s fury, all for the sake of her blue-faced friend.
Purely an unforeseen calamity.
Su Hua originally only planned to hijack the cargo, but Night Rose reported that there was too much, and they could only take a small portion.
Su Hua simply had them burn everything.

In the suburbs of Yun City.
Su Hua’s people were frantically searching for Lin Xuan.
Some underlings reviewed the surveillance footage, locking onto a vehicle, but there were too many cameras to check. The license plate was cloned, and many roads lacked surveillance. It would be hard to figure out where the car went in a short time.
Su Hua’s aura dropped to freezing point.
Jiang Qing looked at Su Hua’s murderous expression and prayed with clasped hands.
“Master Lin, where are you now? You’d better come back soon. Otherwise, Su Zong will be difficult to appease, and might even end up locked in a dark room.”
