Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Eliminate Li Changshan

Li Tianhui was dumbfounded.

He stood in his office, phone in hand, his entire body rigid.

Li Changshan’s words left no room for argument. ”You have half an hour to go and apologize. If that’s not enough, then get on your knees and kowtow. If Mr. Qin doesn’t give his approval, don’t even think about returning to the Li Family. I’ll revoke all of your shares! Fuck, give me an answer now!”

’Even my uncle is swearing!’

Li Tianhui scrambled to reply, ”Yes, yes, I understand!”

After hanging up, he trembled so violently he almost flung his phone across the room.

’Motherfucker!’

’Li Changshan, oh, Li Changshan, you’re not the same domineering head of the Li Family you used to be!’

’Take this business with the Northern Domain Battle Department, for instance.’

’It was such a golden opportunity! Even the Defender General, Qin Celestial King, is skimming money on the side, but you? Oh no, not you. You had to take the family’s money and send free supplies to the Battle Department!’

’That was money everyone in the Li Family worked their asses off to save!’

’And now, billions have just been thrown away!’

Li Tianhui clutched at his hair, a venomous resentment building inside him.

His father and two powerful uncles in the Li Family had long been preparing a plan against Li Changshan.

But they had never found the right opportunity!

Because Li Changshan’s prestige was too great!

Furthermore, Li Changshan held ninety percent of the shares in the Changshan Group!

The board of directors and the various levels of management had neither the means nor the courage to rebel!

Unless!

Unless Li Changshan had some kind of accident!

Li Tianhui had already bribed his uncle’s personal lawyer and secretly seen the will Li Changshan had drafted.

Li Changshan was planning to divide the family shares equally among his three brothers and four nephews!

So...

As long as something happened to Li Changshan—preferably an accident—the Changshan Financial Group would fall entirely into his and his uncles’ hands!

With murder in his eyes, Li Tianhui pushed the matter with Qin Tianxuan from his mind.

He decided to use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to launch a lightning-fast strike against Li Changshan before the day was over!

A venomous smile touched Li Tianhui’s lips as he strode out of his office.

”Don’t deal with that idiot Qin Tianxuan for now. Wait until I get back!”

After giving the order, Li Tianhui took out his phone again and sent a message to his father, his two uncles, and his three cousins.

His expression was savage, and he failed to notice that Qin Tianxuan had been standing across from him the entire time.

As Li Tianhui entered a private elevator heading for the parking garage, Qin Tianxuan also issued a command. ”Name: Li Tianhui. Identity: Li Changshan’s nephew. Have someone tail him immediately. Full surveillance!”

Although Wutian and Prince had already left, the Personal Guard loyal to Qin Tianxuan was still stationed in Su City.

This was an elite Special Guard unit, composed of masters with unique skills, who had followed the Night Emperor to slaughter their way across the foreign domains, completely unrivaled!

Upon receiving the command, the Personal Guard sprang into action.

They immediately tracked Li Tianhui to a private mansion, where they initiated full surveillance!

Inside the private mansion, all the service staff had been sent away, leaving only the seven most powerful members of the Li Family.

Li Tianhui’s father, who was second in the family hierarchy.

His two uncles, and his four paternal cousins.

The seven of them sat at a round table, the atmosphere heavy and somber.

All of them looked toward Li Tianhui.

”Tianhui, has it really come to this?” the second-in-command of the Li Family asked, his expression grave. ”Are we really going to make a move on Li Changshan?”

The corner of Li Tianhui’s eye twitched. ”Dad, Uncles, for years, we’ve used the financial loopholes in the construction materials company to secretly embezzle 1.2 billion in assets from the group. We split it evenly; every one of us got a share.”

The men at the table shuddered.

Li Tianhui gave a savage grin. ”I’m the one who handled all of it, which is why I’ve been stuck working in a small family subsidiary until now! The situation now is that Uncle is sending free supplies to the Northern Domain Battle Department and pulling funds from all over. The hole we left behind is going to be discovered sooner or later!”

The powerful figures of the Li Family looked at each other in terror.

Li Tianhui slammed his hand on the table. ”You all know what our uncle is like! He came from the Battle Department and was once a famous general. He still has a whole squad of his old Personal Guard who retired with him. Even the Governor of Su City, Chen Hai, used to be his subordinate!”

Of course, the Li brothers knew this.

In fact, the truth was even more terrifying than what Li Tianhui had described, because Li Changshan also knew people connected to the Night Emperor!

Although the Night Emperor was dead, the rumored Six Halls and the Ninth Army still existed!

So if their scheme was exposed, they would be walking a dead-end road.

They would either end up in prison or be killed by Li Changshan!

”Tianhui, we know all that, but making a move today? Finishing it before this afternoon? Isn’t that too hasty?” The two uncles and their sons were all trembling.

They didn’t have the courage!

Besides, they were Li Changshan’s own brothers. Blood is thicker than water! They couldn’t bear to actually go through with it.

SLAP! Li Tianhui slammed the table again.

”Uncles, cousins, listen to me! Today at the company, I ran into some bastard named Qin. The guy was completely arrogant right to my face!” Li Tianhui said, gritting his teeth. ”I wanted to fire the bastard, but what happened? Uncle Li Changshan personally called me and told me to apologize instead!”

”This...”

Everyone exchanged uncertain glances.

Li Tianhui’s eyes were bloodshot. ”Don’t you get it? That Qin Tianxuan was sent by our uncle to investigate me! Otherwise, how would a lowly employee dare to be so arrogant?”

The men in the room panicked. ”R-really?”

Li Tianhui coughed. ”And that’s not all. On the phone, Li Changshan said this was ’for my own good’! It’s obvious! He’s discovered our plan!”

The second uncle of the Li family leaped to his feet, his face vicious. ”Tianhui, we’ll do as you say! Let’s get rid of Li Changshan! This time, he took the money we worked so hard to earn, bought supplies, and gave them to the Battle Department for free! Is that something a human being would even do?!”

”That’s right!” The two uncles said, trying to bolster their own courage. ”We kill him and split the family fortune! Tianhui, what’s your plan?”

Li Tianhui venomously pulled out his phone. ”Right now, Li Changshan is on his way back to Su City from the Battle Department. He’s on a private plane. I’ve already made the arrangements for it to have an ’accident’ mid-flight. But! Whether or not we go through with it... that’s a decision we all have to make together, uncles and cousins!”

As he spoke, he glanced around at everyone in the room.

After a moment of silence, they raised their hands one by one. ”Get rid of Li Changshan!”
