Madam Qian, upon hearing how serious Ma Sanbao sounded, decided not to tell his father, Ma Weiwu. After organizing his thoughts, Ma Sanbao said to Madam Qian:
"Mother, this is what happened... They rescued me on the last night. During those two days and nights, I only ate one roasted chicken, and it was dirty. Both Mount and I were injured, and they didn't care about my life at all, so I want revenge this time."
Madam Qian listened while tears streamed down her face as she hated Liu Guanfeng: "Sanbao, how do you plan to take revenge? Didn't your father say not to provoke him? He also said he would help you get revenge soon."
Ma Sanbao shook his head: "I don't care. This time I must take revenge; I want Liu Guanfeng dead." After saying the last sentence, a fierce expression appeared on Ma Sanbao's face, startling Madam Qian.
"Sanbao, what's wrong with you? Don't scare your mother."
Ma Sanbao regained his composure: "Mother, I'm fine. I was just too angry earlier. I need to discuss this with Father because I want to find someone to kill Liu Guanfeng."
Hearing Ma Sanbao say he wanted to kill Liu Guanfeng, Madam Qian was shocked again: "Sanbao, you need to think this through. Killing someone is not that simple. If they find out it was you, even your father won't be able to protect you."
Ma Sanbao said to his mother: "Please don't worry, Mother. I will handle it properly; I just need some money for this. Can you give me some?" After saying that, Ma Sanbao looked at his mother with a pitiful expression.
Madam Qian was timid and felt anxious when she heard Ma Sanbao wanted to hire someone to eliminate Liu Guanfeng. However, seeing her son had been injured by Liu Guanfeng twice already made her resolute: "Sanbao, how much do you need?"
After thinking for a moment, Ma Sanbao replied: "Mother, at least three hundred gold coins."
"Wait here." After saying that, Madam Qian left the room and returned shortly with a small wooden box filled with shiny gold coins.
"Sanbao, this is the three hundred gold coins you asked for; it's your mother's private savings. Take it, but be very careful with this matter." Ma Sanbao nodded. Once his mother left, he called for the butler's son, Ma Lianhao.
Ma Lianhao entered the room and bowed, saying, "Third Young Master, what do you need me for?"
"Little Five, go find Dong Ning and bring him to me."
"Dong Ning? I don't know what Third Young Master wants with him, but I can tell him."
"Just tell him I have something to discuss. As for what it is, I'll explain when he arrives. Go quickly."
"Understood." Ma Lianhao exited the room.
Ma Lianhao went to the Chen Residence and found Chen Whirlwind. Since Liu Guanfeng arrived in Starfall City, Dong Ning had been hanging out with Chen Whirlwind and hadn't returned home. So when Ma Lianhao found Chen Whirlwind, he also found Dong Ning.
When Ma Lianhao told Dong Ning that Ma Sanbao wanted to see him, Dong Ning quickly returned to the Ma Family with Ma Lianhao. Ma Lianhao brought Dong Ning into Ma Sanbao's room. "Third Young Master, I've brought Dong Ning."
Ma Sanbao waved his hand, "You may leave now." Ma Lianhao exited the room.
"Dong Ning, please take a seat. I called you here today because I need your help with something."
Dong Ning quickly stood up, "Third Young Master, just give your orders."
"Dong Ning, why did you come to see me last time?" Instead of continuing his own thoughts, Ma Sanbao turned to ask Dong Ning.
"Well, Third Young Master, I have a grudge against Liu Guanfeng as well. My uncle..." Dong Ning recounted the enmity between his Dong Family and Liu Family.
"Well, it seems you have quite a grudge against Liu Guanfeng?" Ma Sanbao asked again.
Dong Ning nodded firmly.
"Since that's the case, I can rest easy. Dong Ning, if I say I want to get rid of Liu Guanfeng, do you have any good ideas?"
Dong Ning looked at Ma Sanbao in surprise; he didn't expect that Ma Sanbao had such a deep hatred for Liu Guanfeng.
Noticing that Dong Ning was stunned into silence, Ma Sanbao furrowed his brow. "What's wrong? Are you scared?"
Dong Ning quickly came to his senses. "Oh, no. I was just thinking of a way for Third Young Master."
"Then have you thought of any good plans? Just to be clear, we can't use our family's guards."
"Third Young Master, how about we hire Mercenaries? I estimate that there will be quite a few willing to kill someone with Junior Knight strength for a price."
Ma Sanbao nodded. "Hmm, that's not a bad idea. I'll leave this matter to you."
After saying that, Ma Sanbao took out a small bundle from his pocket. "Here are one hundred gold coins. You go handle this matter, and if you need more money, just let me know. Once the job is done, I will reward you accordingly."
"Thank you for your trust, Third Young Master. I will definitely get the job done."
"You should hurry; I estimate that Liu Guanfeng and his group will be leaving Starfall City in the next couple of days."
"Understood, I will take care of it." After saying this, Dong Ning stepped out of Ma Sanbao's room.
At this moment, not far from Ma Mansion, in Chen Residence, a female tiger was raging. Chen Yuer was pacing back and forth inside the house, where many bottles and jars lay shattered on the floor.
"What kind of luck does Liu Guanfeng have? Not only did he win five championships in the competition, but he also received a personal reward from Your Majesty." Next to Chen Yuer, Chen Whirlwind and several other subordinates lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.
"Chen Whirlwind, you useless fool! Didn't I tell you to get revenge for me last time? How could he still take first place? And their academy won the championship because of him. What are we going to do about this?"
Upon hearing Chen Yuer call him out, Chen Whirlwind stepped forward: "Miss, it's my incompetence. We had already approached Ma Sanbao from Ma Mansion to create some trouble, but unexpectedly, Young Master Ma was ambushed by Liu Guanfeng. Not only did he get injured himself, but his Mount Leopard was also severely hurt."
"Useless! All of you are useless! Can't you think of a way that would satisfy me?"
"Um... I don't know what Miss wants to do to vent her anger," Chen Whirlwind asked softly.
Chen Yuer glanced at Chen Whirlwind with disdain: "I said I want Liu Guanfeng to disappear. Can you do that?"
When Chen Yuer said this, Chen Whirlwind was taken aback: "Miss, are you serious?"
Hearing this question, Chen Yuer was also stunned. She had said she wanted to eliminate Liu Guanfeng out of anger, but when Chen Whirlwind asked again, she felt a bit scared. However, as the young lady of the family, she couldn't take back her words. So she could only continue:
"Of course I'm serious. Do you have any methods?"
"Please rest assured, Miss. There are ways to do it. However, if you want to eliminate Liu Guanfeng, I will need to find someone else to help; we cannot use anyone from our family or even brothers from the gang. If that's the case..."
"You mean money, right? I still have some decorations and gold coins saved up from before, about one hundred and fifty gold coins. Is that enough?" Chen Yuer gritted her teeth and took out all her savings.
Chen Whirlwind took the box of decorations and gold coins from Chen Yuer and bowed to her, saying, "Miss, just wait for the news. I will take my leave now."
Chen Yuer waved her hand, "You may go."
Chen Whirlwind and Scar left Chen Yuer's room. Both of them wiped their foreheads simultaneously, realizing they were drenched in cold sweat. Although they usually acted without restraint, neither had ever killed anyone. After all, they were only twelve or thirteen years old.
When they returned to Chen Whirlwind's room, Dong Ning was already waiting for them inside. Since Dong Ning often hung out with Chen Whirlwind, the servants of the Chen Residence had become quite familiar with him. Therefore, Dong Ning frequently came to the Chen Residence to find Chen Whirlwind.
As soon as Chen Whirlwind saw Dong Ning, he asked, "Dong Ning, do you know why the Third Young Master of the Ma Family called for you?"
Dong Ning shook his head and replied, "What else could it be? Of course, it's to find a way to get revenge on Liu Guanfeng. What happened to make you two look so downcast?"
Chen Whirlwind explained, "It's that Liu Guanfeng again. Not only did he win first place at the competition, but he also received a personal reward from the king. This has made our Fourth Young Lady very angry. She just called us over to scold us and told us to find a way to get back at Liu Guanfeng."
"Chen brother, have you thought of any ways to get revenge on Liu Guanfeng?"
Chen Whirlwind shook his head, "Dong Ning, you don't understand. This time our Fourth Young Lady wants Liu Guanfeng's life. How can I come up with any plans?"
"The Fourth Young Lady wants Liu Guanfeng's life? I remember that the Fourth Young Lady doesn't have such a deep grudge against Liu Guanfeng," Dong Ning said, puzzled as to why Chen Yuer wanted Liu Guanfeng dead.
"Who says that's not true? But it is indeed the case. Dong Ning, look at this; this is one hundred and fifty gold coins that the Miss gave me." With that, Chen Whirlwind placed Chen Yuer's bundle in front of Dong Ning.
Seeing the gold coins brought out by Chen Whirlwind, Dong Ning also made up his mind and took out the package from his bosom that Ma Sanbao had given him. He opened the package to reveal a hundred gold coins lying inside.
Chen Whirlwind was taken aback when he saw Dong Ning take out a hundred gold coins. "Dong Ning, where did this money come from?"
"Did not Brother Man say that these gold coins were given by Ma Family's Third Young Master? His request is to deal with Liu Guanfeng."
"I didn't expect Liu Guanfeng to be so notorious, with so many people wanting him dead. Dong Ning, do you have any good ideas?"
"I do have one."
"Let's hear it." Upon hearing that Ma Sanbao also wanted to get rid of Liu Guanfeng, Chen Whirlwind felt more assured. Moreover, he could profit from it.
"Brother Chen, I think if we want to eliminate Liu Guanfeng this time, we shouldn't use the forces of both families. If people find out, it will be hard to handle and the repercussions would be too great. My idea is to hire Mercenaries to take care of this matter."
"Mercenaries? That's a good idea, but how can we get them involved? If we go out and set up a mission, we'll be recognized right away, won't we?"
"This is easy. Usually, Scar Brothers know quite a few Mercenaries, right?" The scarred man nodded in agreement.
"As long as Scar finds a Mercenary who has a good relationship with Usually and spreads the news that Liu Guanfeng is selecting a priceless treasure in the king's palace, there will be plenty of Mercenaries approaching Liu Guanfeng."
"Then we can spend some money to bribe a few Mercenaries and take action from there. Won't everything be settled then?"
