A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1066 Trouble Brewing

Xur Shao-Hua was immediately put on the spot.

"Ming-Feng, it's not that I don't want to help you, but there's really nothing I can do. Elder Wei was the best I could get already, but even he perished so easily at Ye Fan's hands. Even if I get more good fighters from the family, they'll all just end up dying. Besides, I still haven't thought about how to explain Elder Wei's death to the family yet."

Wei Wu-Ya wasn't really a servant of the Xur family.

Strictly speaking, they were more like family friends.

Even Xur Shao-Hua's father treated Wei Wu-Ya with utmost respect.

All these years, Wei Wu-Ya had been willing to be a bodyguard for the Xur family out of gratitude to the Xur family's years of support and grooming.

After all, Wei Wu-Ya got to where he was mostly because of the help he received from the Xur family.

That was why a martial arts grandmaster had been willing to just be a bodyguard for the family.

But now, Wei Wu-Ya was dead.

This was a huge loss to the Xur family.

Xur Shao-Hua could already imagine his father losing his temper.

"In that case, all the more we should kill Ye Fan and avenge Elder Wei. That way, when your father wants to punish you, you can get out of it," Lu Ming-Feng continued to persuade Xur Shao-Hua. Xur Shao-Hua nodded in agreement.

"You're right. But since this Ye Fan could kill Elder Wei, that mean he's a really highly skilled martial artist himself. It won't be that easy to kill him."

Lu Ming-Feng hummed to himself for a while before saying, "It might be too hard for a human to fight him, but we could always use weapons. No matter how formidable he is, he's made from flesh and blood after all. I don't think he could hold up against guns and cannons, right?"

Xur Shao-Hua's eyes lit up. A malicious and cold smile slowly spread across his lips.

That very night, Xur Shao-Hua called his grandfather and said that he wanted a troop of special soldiers to secretly come over to protect him.

Old Master Xur happily agreed to this request.

Xur Shao-Hua was his one and only grandchild, so the old man had always indulged him.

Now that Xur Shao-Hua was requesting for men in the name of protecting himself, it was impossible for the old man to turn him down.

So just like that, a fully armed five man team traveled overnight to arrive in Jiangdong.

"Young Master, my name is Yang Yun, and I have been sent here by Old Master Xur to protect you in Jiangdong," said the muscular man leading the team respectfully when he came to meet with Xur Shao- Hua.

Xur Shao-Hua nodded. "Good that you're here. I have a mission for you guys."

"What mission?" asked the muscular man curiously.

"Help me to kill someone!"

What?

Yang Yun was immediately taken aback.

"Young Master, our mission is just to protect you. As for other matters, I'm afraid..."

"What is this? You dare to go against me?" snapped Xur Shao-Hua nastily as he frowned.

"I wouldn't dare," replied Yang Yun as he lowered his head.

"Humph. Good you know," scoffed Xur Shao-Hua. "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you. The man I want to you kill provoke us first. If he doesn't die, then we might end up dead. You guys know Elder Wei, right? In order to protect me, Elder Wei died at this man's hands. I'm doing all this for the sake of protecting myself."

Xur Shao-Hua cleverly used his words to persuade Yang Yun and his team.

Yang Yun was even more shocked to hear that Elder Wei was dead.

"Young Master, did you say that Elder Wei is dead? How...how is that possible? Elder Wei was formidable enough to fight off an army by himself. Even if all five of us combined our efforts, we wouldn't be a match for Elder Wei at all. He's such an amazing man but he's now dead?" Yang Yun was really shaken by this.

Of course Yang Yun knew who Elder Wei was.

Even though this old man was getting on in age, he was extremely powerful.

Even the top brass of the army were like mere children to Elder Wei.

Legend had it that 30 strong men surrounded Elder Wei to attack him at once, but Elder Wei had emerged unscathed.

A strong man like Elder Wei had always been an idol and example to Yang Yun.

He didn't expect Elder Wei to die in a tiny place like Yunzhou.

"Now you understand what sort of person we facing? We only stand a chance of surviving if we attack first. Otherwise, we'll just be sitting here and wait to die! Aren't you here to protect me? Getting rid of him is the same as protecting me," said Xur Shao-Hua in a stern voice.

Yang Yun and his team fell silent for a moment. After a long while, Yang Yun spoke up a little worriedly, "But Young Master, five of us combined still aren't a match for Elder Wei, so how are we going to kill this man?"

Xur Shao-Hua laughed quietly and said, "You won't be able to kill him with your bare hands, but what about with weapons?"

"But Young Master, we didn't bring a lot of weapons with us this time, just a few simple revolvers and bullets. Elder Wei had reached a level where he was no longer afraid of bullets. So I'm not sure if our weapons would be enough to pose a threat to this man," said Yang Yun hesitantly.

Xur Shao-Hua shook his head. "You don't have to worry about the weapons. I've gotten them ready for you."

He waved his hands and some men came in with several boxes.

The boxes were opened to reveal modern firearms.

"This is..." "RPG?!"

Yang Yun and his team were shocked when they saw what was inside the box.

That was a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.

It was a highly portable anti-tank weapon that could launch grenades. RPGs were mostly used to destroy tanks and armored vehicles at close range.

The RPG and the AK-47 were both some of the most powerful weapons of the 20th century. This weapon was not only a threat to normal army trucks, tanks, armored vehicles and other vehicles on land, it was also very damaging to expensive air vehicles like helicopters and low flying planes.

The US troops lost two Black Hawk helicopters to RPGs back when they fought in Mogadishu.

Yang Yun and his team never expected Xur Shao-Hua to provide them with such a lethal weapon just to kill one man.

"I'm sure you guys know what this is. Even someone like Elder Wei wouldn't be able to hold up against a few blasts. Are you now confident of completing this mission?"

The Xur family was so powerful within the military, it wasn't difficult for the heir of the Xur family to secretly get his hands on such weapons.

Xur Shao-Hua was smiling faintly with an arrogant look in his eyes.

But Yang Yun was still hesitant. "Young Master, this weapon causes a lot of damage. If we use it within the city, I'm afraid it might cause unnecessary panic and chaos. If this matter blows up as a result, I'm afraid..."

"Don't worry, just carry out the mission. I'll clean up the mess afterwards," said Xur Shao-Hua coldly.
