Ninth in The World - Chapter 72

Chapter 72: 72

“Is that it, Brother?” Di Ziheng had watched Di Jiu struck different parts of his father’s body for a few minutes before he forcibly fed him a black pill .

“Yes, he is now metabolizing it in his body . The toxins will be cleansed in up to three hours . Your father will wake up by then . If you do not believe me, just look at his face . ” Di Jiu clapped his hands and picked up his big bag .

Di Ziheng noticed that the grayish-white color of his father’s face had been replaced by a pale white color that was caused by malnourishment .

“Brother, my father has neglected us for years . He never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father . Meanwhile, Xi Xiumin sent you to Luo Jin to suffer . As sons, we should forgive our parents’ mistakes . We are after all…”

Before Di Ziheng could finish speaking, Di Jiu interrupted him . “That’s water under the bridge, Ziheng . This was my old life . From now on, I will have nothing to do with the Di Clan’s manufacturing business . I will go my own way . We can discuss later whether we will get a chance to meet again in the future . If we get along, then maybe we can be friends . ”

Di Ziheng sighed . He knew that there was no point in trying to persuade him . When he saw Di Jiu walk out, he quickly asked, “Did you say that Dad was poisoned? If it was poison, then why wasn’t he cured earlier?”

Di Jiu smiled . “There are a lot of poisons without a cure . That’s nothing unusual . ”

“I must go find that evil woman and ask her why she was so cruel as to poison my father . ” As Di Ziheng thought of Xi Xiumin’s face, anger filled his heart .

“There’s no need to do that . She is already here,” Di Jiu said before he opened the door .

Di Ziheng followed him out . He still didn’t quite understand what Di Jiu meant . However, as soon as he walked out, he saw Xi Xiumin, who was blocked by a hospital security guard as she fought her way in . She seemed to be asking why she did not have the right to visit her husband without the hospital dean’s presence .

“How long have you been away from home, Ziheng? There are a lot of things to be handled at the company . You can leave your father with me!” Xi Xiumin shouted as soon as she saw Di Ziheng .

When she saw Di Zimo, she yelled angrily, “Di Zimo! How dare you return! Leave right now . Ziheng cannot interact with an illegitimate child that does not belong to the Di Family . His father might still be ill, but the rest of his family will not allow him to act like this . ”

Di Ziheng clenched his fists in anger . He finally understood why every time Xi Xiumin came to visit his father, the old hospital dean would stay in the room . If the hospital dean were not there, the hospital guards would stop her .

Di Jiu resisted the urge to slap Xi Xiumin in the face . He did not have to worry about her . She would be dead soon anyway .

“Gather the board of directors and call a meeting,” Di Jiu told Di Ziheng .

Di Ziheng, who immediately understood Di Jiu’s intention, also held back his anger . “Whether my uncles disapprove of my behavior will be determined by my discussion with the board of directors . I demand to have a meeting right now . I am tired of having my every move monitored and controlled . ”

“You, you…” Yan Xiumin seemed to be mad at Di Ziheng . She pointed her finger at Di Ziheng as she stuttered a bit, unable to utter a single word . After a while, she said, “As you wish . We will see what the board of directors has to say . ”

She had originally thought that Di Ziheng would be easy to control, but now it seemed like her opinion had changed .

…

The Di Clan’s manufacturing business was very influential in the Swallow Capital, so it was only natural that its headquarters would be an 88-floor building .

Yan Xiumin’s influence among the Di Clan’s manufacturing business was obviously really strong . When Di Jiu and Di Ziheng followed her into the meeting room, the board of directors of the Di Clan’s manufacturing business had already arrived . At either side of the door of the conference room were two big men . It seemed like if anyone dared speak audaciously during the board meeting, the two men would silence them .

“Why are there so many people here?” Di Ziheng asked doubtfully .

There were 17 people in the room . Since when were there so many directors at the Di Clan’s manufacturing business?

Yan Xiumin swept her gaze across Di Ziheng and Di Jiu . In her opinion, Di Jiu should not be allowed inside . However, there was a transfer contract he needed to sign, so it would be beneficial for him to come in . She was actually happy that Di Jiu had been caught in the act by her . Otherwise, there might have been some minor doubts regarding the share transfer of the Di Clan’s manufacturing business .

Yan Xiumin did not pay attention to Di Ziheng’s words . She just stood up and picked up a document . “72% of the Di Clan’s manufacturing business is currently in my hands, and 7% of the shares belongs to Di Ziheng . The rest of the shares are divided between…”

Di Jiu stood up without waiting for Xi Xiumin to finish her speech .

“What are you doing? We are having a meeting right now . This meeting will determine whether everyone agrees with Di Ziheng…” Yan Xiumin yelled angrily as Di Jiu walked up to her .

Di Jiu reached out and slapped Xi Xiumin before pulling her aside .

“You must have a death wish!” a middle-aged board director yelled at Di Jiu as he stood up . Di Jiu did not wait for him to speak . He immediately raised his hand and threw a wind blade .

A bloody trail suddenly spluttered around . The middle-aged man looked at Di Jiu in disbelief before he collapsed .

Everyone else was too afraid to look at Di Jiu . How could such a person exist? Was he crazy? They had forgotten that Di Jiu had previously killed Di Qiang with a wind blade .

“Come in and restrain him quickly…” Although Yan Xiumin was a woman, she was the first to react .

The two squat-shaped men who stood by the door immediately rushed over . Di Jiu threw two wind blades at them .

Two more corpses suddenly fell to the floor . All the board members finally reacted, rushing madly out of the room .

Di Jiu, who stood by the door, said coldly, “Whoever dares take another step will be killed immediately . ”

He had no time to waste with these people . The easiest way would be to kill them all and take responsibility for his crime before going to the Fairy Planet .

“Brother…” Di Ziheng looked at Di Jiu in disbelief . Did he have a death wish? How could such a method be a solution?

Di Zimo looked at Xi Xiumin, who was already sitting sluggishly on the floor, and said, “Both Di Ziheng’s mother and mine are missing . Did you have anything to do with their disappearance? How dare you poison Di Wencheng, you malicious woman!”

“You shouldn’t act impulsively . We can discuss this . ” Yan Xiumin was terrified . If she lost her life, what use would the Di Clan be to her?

What was even more shocking to her was Di Zimo’s cruelty . However, she understood why Di Zimo was still alive despite being involved in the underground illegal boxing incident in Luo Jin .

“As far as I know, there are only three original shareholders of the Di Clan’s manufacturing business, Di Wencheng, Di Ziheng and I . I will ask for all the shares to be returned to Di Ziheng . Does anyone have a different opinion?” Di Jiu’s eyes swept over the crowd .

Who would dare express a different opinion at this moment?

Di Ziheng tried to speak again, but Di Zimo waved his hand at him before raising it and slapping Xi Xiumin on the head . Xi Xiumin fainted on the spot . Di Jiu believed that, even if she woke up again, she would not be able to cause any more trouble . Di Wencheng would wake up soon and deal with everything .

“Brother…” Di Ziheng could not help but say again .

Di Jiu sighed . “There are cameras here . Everything that happened was my doing . This had nothing to do with you . I will hold these people hostage and allow them to leave in two hours . ”

Di Jiu had bid on a ticket to the Fairy Planet at the auction, so he could leave any day he wished at 4 o’clock in the afternoon . It was already past 2 o’clock in the afternoon, so two hours later, he would be on his way to the Fairy Planet . No one would be able to catch him . Then, Di Wencheng would be discharged from the hospital . With Xi Xiumin abolished and Di Wencheng discharged, it would be easy to kick the rest of the directors out .

As soon as he said this, Di Jiu took everyone hostage and added, “I will leave first . If anyone tried to pull some kind of trick, I will return and hunt them down . Ziheng, please help me go to the Swallow Capital University’s Institute of Martial Arts and visit Qi Xiang . I have to tell him that I will be going to our meeting place first . ”

As he watched Di Jiu walk out of the conference room, Di Ziheng felt his whole body go limb . If he had known that his brother would take over the Di Clan’s manufacturing business in such a manner, he would not have agreed to this . This would end his brother’s life . He could foresee that Di Jiu would be living like a refugee in the future .

…

Di Jiu had originally planned on going to the Swallow Capital University’s Institute of Martial Arts to meet Qi Xiang before visiting the Fairy Planet the next day . He had to enter the Fairy Planet earlier after the incident at the Di Clan’s manufacturing business .

It would take about an hour to travel from the Di Clan’s manufacturing business to the Earth Union Aerospace Airport . Di Jiu arrived there at around 4 o’clock .

The auction ticket was very easy to use . When Di Jiu took it out, no one tried to check his big bag . If he put on a disguise, no one would speak any nonsense or check his ID . Di Jiu would also be taken to a small private cabin, so spending billions on this ticket had been totally worth it .

When the plane departed from Earth, the Fairy Planet Earth Union Headquarters were informed that the person who had bought the three jade slips had used a ticket to the Fairy Planet and boarded in disguise . The plane, which took off from the China Union Aerospace Airport, would reach the Fairy Planet in 40 hours .

“Ha ha ha…” Ai Di stood in the big office of the Earth Union and laughed . He had finally received a useful message .

No matter who this person was, they had to be stopped . When the plane arrived at the Fairy Planet Aerospace Airport, he had to be the first to meet them .

It was a pity that the person in question only had the three jade slips . If they had also had the ring, things would have been perfect .
