<h4>Chapter 1087: Chapter 1094: Raid on the Ling Family (Part 3)</h4>


    Under the cover of the noisy sound, a ten-person squad rapidly advanced through the forest. Although Pang Jiulin was responsible for this operation, the true leader was Ling Chen. Pang Jiulin and Tang Yuan fully acknowledged Ling Chen’s abilities. Moreover, facing the Ling Family this time, it was most suitable for Ling Chen to lead the action, given his rich experience in dealing with them.


    Carefully traversing the green woods outside the Ling Family, everyone moved forward. Along the way, relying on their skills and Ling Chen’s keen hearing, they eliminated numerous dark posts. It didn’t take long for Ling Chen to lead Pang Jiulin and others sessfully to the outer wall of the Ling Family.


    Looking at the electric grid device on top of the wall, Ling Chen frowned slightly—this was a significant problem. They had thoroughly investigated these past two days: the grid above was connected to high-voltage electricity, and touching it would certainly mean death.


    "Instructor Pang, have everyone wait here. I’ll go dismantle the electric grid device first."


    "Alright, be careful on your own."


    Leaving the squad, Ling Chen circled along the outer wall to the back door of the Ling Family. At the entrance, two security personnel in suits stood outside, vigntly watching the surroundings to prevent suspicious individuals from approaching.


    Ling Chen quietly observed for a moment, slowly moving his steps toward the opponents. Fortunately, both sides of the back door are surrounded by trees, providing cover for Ling Chen’s body.


    When he was about five meters away from the security personnel, Ling Chen leaned forward, lightly tapping his toes, and instantly elerated, rushing straight towards the two security personnel.


    Though the two security personnel were not slow to react, feeling the gust of wind approaching from the side, they turned their heads rapidly to gaze at the oing figure.


    Despite their quick reaction, Ling Chen was even faster. With a swing of his fist, one security personnel was hit instantly, knocked directly to the ground. Before the other could defend, Ling Chen shifted his footwork, appearing behind him in an instant, and delivered a hard chop downward.


    With a muffled sound, the opponent’s body immediately fell forward.


    Resolving the two security personnel in a sh, Ling Chen exhaled slightly in relief, cautiously walked to the back door. He opened the door and nced inside, only to find two surveince cameras facing the entrance. Walking in directly would definitely be caught on the camera.


    Thinking for a moment, Ling Chen closed the door again and picked up two pebbles from the ground outside.


    With a gentle flick of his wrist, the two pebbles were thrown one after another, and two crisp sounds followed as the camera lenses were shattered by the pebbles.


    Seizing the opportunity, Ling Chen swiftly dashed inside. The back door led to the Ling Family’srge backyard. Once inside, Ling Chen didn’t dare remain idle and quickly shifted positions, finding a rtively safe spot to hide.


    Two minutes passed, and two security personnel appeared in Ling Chen’s view, quickly heading toward the back door.


    The surveince cameras being damaged and the two security personnel at the back door were unreachable; the Ling Family was sure to send someone to investigate. Watching the two security personnel pass by, Ling Chen rolled on the ground, sneaking past them from behind, making directly toward a house in the siheyuan.


    Entering the room, Ling Chen exhaled audibly, his gaze surveying the furnishings. This room seemed uninhabited, with the floor covered in thick dust and misceneous items piled up against the wall.


    While waiting briefly in the room, he suddenly heard urgent and chaotic footsteps outside.


    It seemed the Ling Family had discovered the situation at the back door.


    At this moment, in the main hall of the Ling Family’s siheyuan, a muscr middle-aged man in a suit stood in the center, apanied by several youths.


    "Have you found the intruder?" the middle-aged man inquired solemnly.


    "Second Uncle, we haven’t found anyone yet. Our people are searching; I assure you, whoever’s entered the Ling Family will find escape impossible," a handsome young man replied.


    "Stay vignt; disseminate mymand to elevate the Ling Family’s security level to the maximum. Everyone must be stationed. Until the crisis is resolved, no one is allowed to rest, got it?"


    "Understood!"


    ...


    "You two, go search over there." In the siheyuan, more than a dozen security personnel were conducting a meticulous search.


    Two security personnel were instructed to arrive at the front of a room, exchange a nce, and directly rush inside.


    But just as the two security personnel rushed in, the door was immediately closed. After three minutes, the door reopened, and a man in a suit emerged with his head down.


    ncing around, Ling Chen subtly smiled; everyone was dressed alike, so no one noticed him.


    Now, Ling Chen threaded his way among the security personnel, proceeding quickly forward. With the suit providing cover, Ling Chen’s movement became much more convenient. Soon, Ling Chen reached the outside of a heavily guarded room.


    Considering the surroundings and the intelligence he possessed, this room was likely the Ling Family’s security office, where the Ling Family’s security system was managed. Gaining control of the security office would allow shutting down all security devices, enabling Pang Jiulin and the others to enter.


    Though the security office had guards, it was no issue for Ling Chen. Within moments, Ling Chen swiftly handled the guards outside the door and kicked open the security office’s door.


    Hearing the noise from outside, the staff in the security office was startled and quickly turned around. But before seeing clearly, the intruders felt a pain in their heads, immediately passing out.


    Staring at the equipment in the security office, Ling Chen felt a headache. These were all professional devices controlled byputers, and Ling Chen didn’t know how to disarm the security system.


    Pausing briefly, Ling Chen abandoned further thought, grabbing a fire axe in the room, and struck the equipment forcefully.


    Suddenly, sparks flew, and all the devices started smoking and went into shutdown.


    ncing at the crashedputer, Ling Chen smiled faintly; indeed, brute force was more efficient. With the Ling Family’s security devices disabled, Ling Chen promptly used the earpiece to contact Pang Jiulin outside.


    "Copy! We’reing in now."


    Ending the call, Ling Chen didn’t linger long in the security office; he still had more important tasks.


    This mission was crystal clear: Destroy the Southern Ling Family. Yet, Ling Chen understood that the truly significant figures of the Ling Family were absent; they had long hidden abroad and elsewhere. Nheless, there would be minor characters around. Additionally, given the Ling Family had resided here for years, many secrets were certainly concealed.


    Ling Chen was immensely interested in this. From Lin Guodong’s ounts, Ling Chen learned many things about the Ling Family. In certain respects, even the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was inferior to the Ling Family.


    "Stop!"


    Suddenly, a chilly voice halted the sprinting Ling Chen from behind.
