Chapter 1326 Assassination

"Damn it, who did this? Go and investigate immediately; you must find out who did this!"

Creston was practically going insane with rage. The Brown Family was one of Apple City's four great Families. Their Family's defenses were incredibly strict, with hundreds of gunmen and the world's most advanced high-tech protection System.

Furthermore, with so many experts, how could such an assassination occur, and with two people dying at once?

But the results disappointed him; his subordinates searched through all the Family's surveillance footage and found no trace of anyone entering.

"Father, do you think it could be Ye Bufan who escaped and caused this?"

The speaker was a tall, middle-aged man, Banks, Creston's son.

Creston's expression changed, and he suppressed his anger, saying, "Quickly send people to the maximum-security prison to investigate. If it really is Ye Bufan who came out to assassinate and retaliate, then frame him as a violent extremist and confiscate all his property."

"Yes!"

Banks agreed. He didn't make a phone call to inquire but personally rushed to the maximum-security prison.

His elder brother, Charlton, had died; this was definitely a good thing for him. As long as he performed well, he might very well secure the position of Family heir in the future.

At the same time, in the Field Family, after Orlando's eldest son, Robbie, was assassinated, his body was dropped on the tallest building in the Family's estate.

Orlando was furious and immediately ordered his subordinates to search for the killer, but after searching the entire estate, they found no trace of the killer, only a note identical to the one found at the Brown Family.

These things were, of course, all done by Ye Bufan. Since these two Families wanted to conspire to seize his property and put him to death, he had to make them pay the price.

After doing all this, he found a secluded spot and summoned all 36 Heavenly罡 Generals from the Dragon King Palace.

Ye Bufan called out, "Situ Fei, where are you?"

"Your subordinate is here."

As soon as his voice fell, a thin, gaunt man walked out from the crowd. He was Situ Fei, the Sky Slaughter Island Master among the 36 Heavenly罡 Generals, whose Legacy Martial Skill was the art of assassination.

"From today onwards, the Brown Family and the Field Family shall have one core Family member killed each day, without fail."

"Your subordinate guarantees to complete the mission."

Situ Fei's face showed a hint of excitement. His Legacy Martial Skill was the art of assassination, and compared to his other companions, his direct combat strength was relatively weaker. Today, he finally had a chance to put his skills to use.

Ye Bufan then said to Huang Xiaomei and others, "From

today onwards, you will completely surround the Brown Family and the Field Family. Any attempt to flee will result in immediate execution.

Be careful to hide your tracks and do not let anyone discover your presence."

"Your subordinates understand."

The 36 Heavenly罡 Generals agreed and quickly disappeared into the night. With their Saint-Grade Martial Saint cultivation, no one could possibly discover their presence.

With everything arranged, Ye Bufan summoned Dragonfang and returned to the maximum-security prison by flying with his sword.

When he returned, everything in the cell was normal, as if nothing had happened. He retracted his Erlang into the Dragon King Palace, unsealed the acupoints of the others, and then lay on his bed, sleeping soundly.

Banks rushed to the maximum-security prison and, accompanied by the warden, arrived at the monitoring room.

When they arrived, the Big Beard prison guard was sitting on a chair, watching a movie from an island nation on his phone.

Seeing the warden personally arrive, he quickly jumped up from his chair to greet him.

The warden said, "This is Young Master Banks of the Brown Family. You are now responsible for answering his questions."

"Yes!"

The Big Beard quickly agreed. He couldn't afford to offend either the warden or the Brown Family.

Banks asked directly, "Where is that Ye from Huaxia imprisoned? Quickly pull up his surveillance video for me to see."

"Yes!"

The Big Beard prison guard agreed, picked up the mouse, and manipulated it a few times. The video of Cell No. 1 on the large screen was magnified, showing the situation inside clearly.

"Mr. Banks, this is Ye Bufan."

The Big Beard prison guard raised his hand and pointed towards Ye Bufan's bunk.

Banks followed the direction of his finger and saw Ye Bufan lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

"Did he leave tonight? Did he go out?"

"Uh…"

The Big Beard prison guard was stunned for a moment, then said, "Of course not. This is a maximum-security prison; it's impossible for him to go out."

Banks was slightly disappointed but still said, "Play back the video for me; I want to see it myself."

Although he felt it was unnecessary, the Big Beard prison guard dared not disobey his order.

He pulled up the previous video surveillance and played it from beginning to end, from Ye Bufan's imprisonment until now.

Banks watched it from beginning to end and finally confirmed that Ye Bufan had indeed not left the prison. This filled him with doubt: who exactly attacked his Family? Could it be

(End of this chapter, please turn the page)

Ye Bufan's accomplice?

The warden, not knowing what had happened, followed up by saying, "Mr. Banks, rest assured, this is a maximum-security prison. Not to mention a living person, not even a fly can escape from here.

Unless the higher-ups release him, that kid will never get out."

Banks nodded, then his gaze fell on Ye Bufan again: "I say, what are you doing? Why are you letting him live so comfortably here?"

"This…"

The Big Beard prison guard said with a troubled expression, "As you just saw, that kid's skill is too good. None of the serious offenders in the entire prison are his match, and we have no other way."

Banks said, "Didn't I tell you to add something to his food? How is it like this? Did you not follow instructions?"

"We really did follow instructions." The Big Beard prison guard quickly explained, "We put all those powders into his meals, but there was just no effect at all. We don't know why."

"Damn it, put these in again tomorrow."

Banks casually pulled out a small bottle filled with transparent liquid, threw it to the Big Beard medical officer, then turned and left the maximum-security prison.

At the Brown Family, although it was already deep into the night, after such a major incident, no one in the entire Family was asleep.

Upon returning, Banks rushed to Creston's room and recounted his trip to the prison to his Father from beginning to end.

"Father, I have carefully reviewed the surveillance footage. During this period, that Ye never left the cell door except for going to the bathroom twice. Tonight's events should not have been his doing."

"Damn it, if it wasn't him, then there must be another expert."

Creston thought for a moment and said, "Immediately contact the security forces and have them assign people to keep an eye on those around Ye Bufan. Once there's any sign of trouble, arrest them immediately.

Also, to be on the safe side, have all core Family members return to the estate and live together under one roof, then strengthen security. This situation must absolutely not happen again."

"Yes! I'll go take care of it now."

Banks agreed and walked towards the door, a smile playing on the corner of his mouth. Charlton was dead, and he had indeed gained his Father's trust.

At the same time, he was also very confident in his heart that tonight's assassination was a complete accident. As long as the Family strengthened its defenses, such a thing would absolutely not happen again.
