Secret Marriage:The Wolf And The Sheep Chapter 153
Advertisement
Chairwoman Lu sat in her library, carefully considering the e mail she had received this evening. It seems the head's of the finance and accounts departments had been sacked already. This could mean only one thing- that the person appointed by the Alpha group had discovered the anomalies. So finding the truth was going to happen sooner or later. And yet there was no movement from the Yoo's. Finally, she decided to go to the Yoo Mansion again and this time she would not return until and unless she was able to find Elder Yoo.
Before she could leave, however, the butler walked in. Held in his hands was a scroll. She frowned and collected the old fashioned scroll. "Madam, this was delivered by someone from the Yoo family."
Chairwoman Lu's face suddenly brightened at the prospect of the content of the scroll. Could it be that her request had been met? But then why not just inform her? Why send a scroll? As far as he knew, the Yoo used to have the habit of not leaving any evidences after the deed was done. She looked at the rolled scroll in her hand and smirked? Were they so arrogant now that they would do this. Her brother would definitely be pleased. But the content of the scroll soon made her frown. She read the lines again and again before frowning intently. She had been summoned?
"Please come to the appointed place in an hour."
She did not understand the reason but she understood that the people behind this were erious or they would not have been so formal. So, she immediately ordered, "Get the car."
The butler nodded before hurrying away while Lady Lu pondered if she should inform her brother of this meeting.. but in the end decided against it. He only knew how to use guns anyway. He would only create more trouble.
It was already dark when the car drove towards the graveyard and everything had turned silent. Lady Lu wondered if she was going to see a new person tonight as the previous one was dead, but she paid no mind to such thoughts and leaned back in the seat. Soon they had reached the graveyard. Getting off, Lady Lu ordered the driver, "Stay here." and went inside arrogantly, not at all afraid of any ghosts lurking in the graveyard. However, if she had only turned back at this moment, she would have known that the driver had already started to hurriedly walk back from the car towards the main roads.

Inside, Lady Lu was surprised to see the person who had come. But she covered her surprise and bowed deeply," Elder, you could have summoned me home. Why come here.."
Elder Yoo smiled and motioned the woman close. Once she had come around the grave, Elder Yoo turned his back to his grandson's grave and started to walk away," Lady Lu, you are an old woman now but I have always considered you my sister and like a daughter. When you rescued my Shiro, I promised on my grandson's grave that I would help you whenever you needed me. I waited and waited but you never came to get your favor. And now that you finally approached, I have failed you miserably. I can never forget that dreary day when you came to me with my Shiro and told me how you had rescued one grandson but were unable to rescue the other.. And then you brought me here where you had buried the ashes of your father and my grandson. I could not have regretted more and I could not have been more thankful. But I have failed you again and again now so tonight I have invited you to witness my punishment. "
Lady Lu who had been frowning until now, looked up sharply as Elder Yoo said this but the next moment, she followed his gaze and was shocked. There, was a small bomb on the grave and a remote in the Elder Yoo's hand. Before she could speak a word, he had pressed a button on the remote and ,"BOOM"
A loud sound pierced through the night and a large fire engulfed the grave. Lady Li felt her mouth fall open in horror and she turned to glance at the old man but he had already turned away..She ran up to him and stopped him forcefully,"What...what do you mean by this old man? Are you going back on the oath you made?Do you think you would be able to satisfy me with this. Your grandson is already dead for many years so why do this drama? The only person, that grave mattered to was you,anyways. You can simply admit that you are unable to fulfill my wish! I would have asked for something else!"

But Elder Yoo paid no mind to the woman who blocked his way and said tiredly,"Yes. I am unable to help you. And this is my punishment. My grandson has seized all the power that I held. So I am just an old man. By now, Elder Yoo had reached the gates on the other side of the graveyard and a cold light glittered in his eyes as he looked into the dark and nodded.
The next moment, a scream echoed and the old woman was thrown into the car with a sack on her head and her hands tied behind her back.
The driver cum bodyguard who had just started to walk back towards the car, ran at full speed after hearing the scream. He felt worried and guilty as he thought of the payment he had received for going away from the car for a little while. The person had assured him that he would not be implicated and the old woman would come to no harm. But now he had heard the scream of the old boss so he was worried. But just as he reached the car, he watched the madam coming out of the gates. She was walking hurriedly while looking back. There was something different about the madam but he paid no mind to it and ran to open the door. He thanked the fates that he had ran fast or he would have been fired..Closing the door as soon as the madam had slid in, he closed the door and started the car.
In the backseat of the car, he watched as the madam, tried to catch her breath. He had never seen her like this and wondered if he should take her to the hospital. But the madam, lay her head back and closed her eyes so he drove silently.
After the car was long gone, a van drove out of the other side. The windows of this car we're covered so that no one would guess what was inside. Behind this car was a long stretched limousine and inside was the old man who had just had a broken expression on his face but right now had a serene smile on his face.
At this time, in the shady streets, a few police cars we're parked under disguise. They had received the information of an upcoming drug deal and were waiting for the perpetrators to arrive. The informant had told them about that a very important person was about to be present tonight and this one was that had been on their wanted list for a few years now.
Soon it was time for the deal and many black shadows started to roll outside the warehouse. This man was none other than Lady Lu's brother who had come to pacify an old customer.
Then two people were in the middle of a negotiation when suddenly the customer came up with a gun. The man who was selling the drugs, smiled an evil smile. Did this man take him for a fool? Just because he was an old customer, he could get away with this?
When the man did not receive the reaction he wanted, he stepped closer and threatened," Give me my supply or I will kill you, Wu Tao!"
"Will you? But that won't help you, will it? After all, the police cars that you have arrived with and the ones that are waiting for me to confess, they would be extremely disappointed. Now let me tell you something, you want your thing, you don't bargain and you most certainly don't try to fix a meeting desperately. It becomes pretty clear that you have become a mole."
As Wu Tao said this he casually threw the lighter in his hand onto a patch of dry grass. Immediately the grass caught fire and the policemen rushed out of their hiding places, to capture him.
But Wu Tao had already caught on, and before the smoke could dissipate, he ran from there. As the men opened fire, a bullet grazed by his hand, making him swear but he was not going to let such a small thing stop him! He held up his middle finger and disappeared into the smoke.

Verdant Heart Seed - A Reverend Insanity fan-fiction
Back in the Late Antiquity Era, the protagonist meets his untimely demise. But Heaven and Earth always leaves a way out, his new cultivation journey begins anew on the path of reclaiming his former strength and defying Fate.---This is a story about a native cultivator of the Gu world. He lived in the era of/before Spectral Soul Demon Venerable (two venerable eras before the main RI plot). He suffered the rise of the demon venerable, barely able to make his arrangements before his death. He manages to rebirth, but doesn't everything go as planned. The story starts off in an isolated small word (grotto heaven), until the MC can grow and reclaim his former glory, before surpassing it. (long way, he was already rank 8 before) The MC has a pragmatic worldview, aligned with what you would expect from someone living hundreds of years in that kind of hostile environment. He doesn't shy away from immoral acts if it benefits him. The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
