Chapter 91
The power shifts in Donghai were happening faster than anyone could have predicted. With the ruthless elimination of Xu Rong, the entire illegal underworld of the city was shaken. Wang Gao and his allies from Shengcheng made it clear: those who pledged loyalty would rise, and those who resisted would fall—swiftly and without mercy.
Jin Yang, still reeling from the betrayal of Wu Bing and Wu Qiang, now had to navigate the volatile situation in Donghai. The news of Xu Rong’s brutal downfall spread like wildfire, sending ripples through both the legitimate and illegitimate circles of the city. But in his mind, the most important thing wasn’t the shifting power dynamics—it was Jiang Ning.
The rage that had been simmering in Jin Yang since his son’s injury grew even more intense. Lin Feng had brought him the crucial information. Jiang Ning wasn’t just an obstacle; he was the one who had made a public declaration of war by hurting Jin Ran, and that was something Jin Yang could not tolerate.
He wasn’t just dealing with a rogue businessman or an opportunistic rival. Jiang Ning had become an enemy who dared to cross the Jin family. And now, he had to be dealt with decisively.
As Jin Yang stared out of his window, the city of Shengcheng sprawled beneath him, a symbol of his family’s power. But even here, he knew his enemies could strike at any time. It was a city full of hidden dangers, alliances, and betrayals.
He turned back to Lin Feng, who stood there, waiting anxiously. “So, you’re telling me that Jiang Ning is Lin Wen’s son-in-law?” he asked, his voice icy.
Lin Feng nodded. “Yes, Master Jin. He’s very close to the Lin family, especially to Lin Yuzhen, the daughter. He’s also someone no one seems to be able to touch, not even the Lin family in Donghai.”
Jin Yang’s lips twisted into a cold smile. “The Lin family may think they’re untouchable, but this Jiang Ning… he’ll learn the hard way that no one defies the Jin family.”
He paused, letting the gravity of his words sink in, then continued, “Lin Wen and his family need to pay for their insolence. As for Jiang Ning—he must be crushed, and his family should be wiped off the map. The Lin family should learn the price of underestimating the Jins.”
Lin Feng stood silently, trying not to show his fear. He knew that once Jin Yang made up his mind, there would be no turning back. The Jins didn’t forget insults, and they didn’t let anyone get away with challenging their authority.
Meanwhile, in Donghai, the atmosphere had already begun to shift. With Xu Rong’s fall, the illegal circles were left leaderless, and many were flocking to the side of Wang Gao and his new allies from Shengcheng. But Jiang Ning wasn’t one to be swept along by the tides of power. He had dealt with similar situations before. What worried him more now was the growing threat from Shengcheng, from the Jins and the Lin family’s machinations.
The storm was coming, and Jiang Ning knew that he had to prepare, not just for himself but for his family and the future of everything they had worked to build. The stakes had never been higher.
In the shadows, alliances were being forged, enemies were being made, and the streets of Donghai and Shengcheng were about to see the bloodiest conflict the city had ever known. Would Jiang Ning stand victorious, or would the combined might of the Lin family and the Jins bring him to his knees? Only time would tell.
