276 Chapter 276



Now that several days had passed without the Jiang Family doing anything, it meant that Lin Fan could finally put the next step of his plan in action.

He knew that there could only be two reasons why the Jiang Family were passive.

One, they were overwhelmed by the amount of pressure that Lin Fan had put on them and there was nothing they could do.

Two, they were plotting something and that something was definitely going to be big.

No matter what the reason was, Lin Fan knew exactly what his next move would be.

He would be putting even more pressure on the Jiang Family by targeting their true main business.

On the surface, the Jiang Family\'s main business was quite diversified with a few businesses that were a bit darker, but there was actually much more under the surface. The Jiang Family had a business that was so dark that it would completely destroy their reputation if it was ever revealed, but it made up for the majority of the funds and influence that they had.

On the Blue Star Planet, the planet itself was mainly ruled by humans and they were fully united by the threat of the beast invasion.

For humans, what this meant was that they had a large amount of pride as a race and could not stand any human being beneath another.

While they still accepted things like murder and stealing because of the barbaric society, one thing that they didn\'t accept was slavery.

But that was also the hypocritical part of human society since not only did they allow beasts to be enslaved as pets, they also allowed the slavery of different minority races such as elves and dwarves. To them, as long as they didn\'t belong to the same race, it didn\'t matter.

But of course, the humans seemed like this on the surface, but it was also not that simple under the surface.

The main business of the Jiang Family was exactly this, they dealt in slavery.

Human slavery.

The Jiang Family had created a skewed society system in Rock Mountain City with a large disparity between the rich and poor. It had reached a point where people didn\'t even find it strange if a beggar or two were to suddenly disappear from the streets. Everyone just assumed that they had died or moved on, but that was far from the truth.

The Jiang Family was able to easily collect slaves that way by capturing a few of the homeless once a week, before selling them to their clientele.

Now this wasn\'t actually that big of a secret since this was considered an open secret within the upper stratum of the Blue Star Planet. The reason why they could get away with this was all because they had the influence of a Legendary Realm Family.

In the end, this was a world that was ruled by the strong and there was nothing stronger than the Legendary Realm Family.

Of course, they hadn\'t always been doing this, starting just recently, but now they had made it their main business.

But the main reason for the fact that everyone accepted this was because most of their clients were actually nobles and royals which made up over 80% of the Union Government.

There were also exceptions to this such as the Mu Family of Green Wood City and the Zhu Family of the Water Pearl City, but that didn\'t mean that various nobles and royals in those cities weren\'t customers of the Jiang Family.

Lin Fan wasn\'t a saint, so he didn\'t want to destroy this business out of the kindness of his heart, but rather because it was what would allow his plan to proceed. Of course, if it meant that he could save a few people, he definitely wasn\'t against it.

So after the store closed for the day, Lin Fan once again headed out.

Angela offered to come, but surprisingly Lin Fan refused this and had her stay with Song Shu.

He didn\'t know why, but there was an uneasy feeling that was in his heart like something was about to go wrong.

Still, he set off with that feeling in his heart.

He met up with Jiang Zhi Shu and his elite subordinates and headed out of the city.

The facility that the Jiang Family was using for this slave trade was found outside of the city.

While it was commonly accepted by the upper stratum of the Blue Star Planet that the Jiang Family could run their slave business, it still was "illegal". It was best for them if they didn\'t do it out in the open, so outside the city was the best choice.

It was found near a smaller mountain and there was an entire secret base under that mountain.

The only reason Lin Fan had even been able to find this facility was because the information network that he had been trying to set up had actually been starting to take form.

After he had destroyed the businesses of the Jiang Family, there were openings in Rock Mountain City which his information network easily took advantage of.

This was a mountain that looked just like a normal mountain, but when Lin Fan spread his spiritual sense around, he could tell that this mountain was too heavily guarded for a normal mountain.

All the guard posts had been hidden, either being inside of a hollow tree or inside of hollow rocks. In short, if no one knew what this place was, they never would have suspected it for what it really was.

Lin Fan took out a map of the surrounding area and carefully marked all the guard posts that he had found with his spiritual sense before sending off his subordinates to hit these guard posts.

These subordinates were all elites that had followed Jiang Zhi Shu through many battles, so naturally they were more than skilled enough to find these guard posts and secretly make their way in to incapacitate all the guards. Of course, they didn\'t take out all the guards, leaving just a few to hold hostage and check in with the main command when asked to check in.

Just like this, they went around the entire mountain and destroyed all the guard posts around it, creating a net so that no one would be able to escape tonight.

They left several of their members outside in the guard posts to watch out before making their way to the entrance of the mountain.

When they arrived, they could see two guards standing by an elevator inside this cave.

Jiang Zhi Shu leaned in towards Lin Fan and asked, "Boss, what should we do here? Do we just go right in and take them all out?"

Lin Fan knit his brows as he looked at the guards before saying, "Wait, something\'s not right."

Jiang Zhi Shu also knit his brows as he asked, "Not right? What do you mean?"

Lin Fan was in thought for a bit before saying, "These guards seem like they\'re too nervous. It seems like something is happening here tonight."

Jiang Zhi Shu knit his brows even tighter when he heard this, "Something is happening? Should we abandon this mission then?"

,m Lin Fan hesitated a bit before saying, "No, let\'s watch for now. We have control of the situation outside, so there\'s nothing to worry about if we spend a bit of time here."

Jiang Zhi Shu seemed like he wanted to say something, but seeing that Lin Fan had made up his mind, he swallowed his words and moved back up against the wall.

They were already used to this, so all the subordinates pressed themselves against the wall as Lin Fan released his shadow law to cover them up.

While this shadow law wasn\'t a complete law, it was still much stronger than when Lin Fan had been in the Sacred Rock Realm. Lin Fan had been taking time each day to head to Snow Wind City and suck a bit of Yin\'s laws for himself.

Now as long as no one looked at them too closely or if they weren\'t in the Legendary Ream, it would be hard to find Lin Fan\'s group. To be honest, how likely was it that a Legendary Realm Expert would be passing by here?

Lin Fan didn\'t want to wait long and as fate had it, he didn\'t need to wait long for something to happen.

Ten minutes after they began waiting, there was another group that had suddenly come into the cave.

This group wasn\'t that big and they were heavily cloaked, but Lin Fan felt that there was something familiar about the leader of this group.

The leader of the cloaked group came up to the elevator and asked the guards, "Has there been any reports?"

The guard on the right said, "Elder, we haven\'t heard anything yet, but we will be sure to maintain our guard."

The leader of the cloak group nodded before saying in a cold voice, "Remember, this is very important to the family. If you make a single mistake, it will be your head!"

The two guards immediately lowered their heads to bow as they shouted, "Yes, elder!"

The cloaked group ignored this and headed to the elevator which the guards opened with their keycards.

When they went into the elevator, they turned around and suddenly took off their cloaks.

Lin Fan didn\'t recognize the rest of the party, but he definitely recognized the leader.

It was Jiang Hei, the fourth elder of the Jiang Family!
