Chapter 319: Chapter 317 A Night with Dark Moon and High Winds

At this moment, Lu Tianxing finally harbored a murderous intent.

Bai Zhiqing had once again encountered a crisis, which made Lu Tianxing realize that the Heavenly God was far more powerful than he had anticipated. Relying solely on the Rose Society and Fu Tu Tie Niu would never be enough to quench his immediate thirst. He needed to possess a far more formidable force, a much greater power to completely dominate Modu and have the entire city under his control.

Since the Rose Society was the strongest force he wielded, he decided to make it even stronger, bigger, and turn it into Modu’s behemoth that many feared and dreaded at the mere mention.

After all, there’s a saying, ”Keep the best for oneself.” Rose was his wife, so of course he would help his own wife. Besides, as long as the Rose Society grew in strength, officials would find it not so easy to take action against them.

”Husband, do you need my help?”

Rose did not ask what exactly Lu Tianxing was planning to do. To her, no matter what Lu Tianxing did, she would support him one hundred percent without needing any reason, even if it meant climbing the knife mountain or descending into the sea of flames.

”No need, what you need to do is quickly gather the overt forces of the Sword Alliance. When the time comes and the Rose Society truly takes over Sword Alliance’s territory, even the officials will struggle to deal with you,” he said.

Lu Tianxing shook his head. This time, he not only intended to annihilate the Sword Alliance as a warning to other forces harboring ill intentions toward Bai Zhiqing, he also wanted to let them know that they should consider whether they could bear his retaliation before they attempted anything against Bai Zhiqing.

Secondly, he planned to clear the obstacles for the Rose Society. Since the last incident, the society had become a thorn in the officials’ side, a source of irritation, as they looked for opportunities to destroy the Rose Society. But if the Rose Society grew stronger again, even those higher-ups would need to consider the consequences of trying to eradicate it. This essentially provided a protective umbrella for the Rose Society, making others hesitant to take action.

”I understand,” Rose nodded and then asked thoughtfully, ”Husband, do you need the Unrivaled Guards to accompany you?”

”No need, just hand me Chen Dao’s information from the Sword Alliance. You just focus on keeping an eye on the officials connected to the Sword Alliance and their power. Don’t let them cause any trouble. Leave the rest to me,” he said.

Rejecting Rose’s suggestion, Lu Tianxing spent a brief, tender moment with her at the Zero Point Bar before taking the files Wu Yan had sent him and leaving directly.

...

Meanwhile, in an extremely luxurious private apartment.

Chen Dao sat in his study, frowning deeply, his face exceptionally cold. He had just received news that a vice hall master of the Sword Alliance had gone to kill Bai Zhiqing on his own initiative and ended up dead. This news had instantly obliterated all his good mood, and he wished he could tear the rashly acting Scarface to pieces.

Who was Bai Zhiqing? The chairman of Modu Bai Group. Even he did not dare to harm her recklessly. Once any harm came to Bai Zhiqing, the consequences were unthinkable. The death of the chairman of a well-known mega-corporation would be a severe blow to Modu’s economy, and the damage to political achievements was self-evident. The higher-ups would probably tear him to shreds in no time, and his protective umbrellas would be useless.

Moreover, what was more important, Bai Zhiqing was the granddaughter of Bai Qiao Mountain.

Bai Qiao Mountain was an outright madman. Once, a minor force tried to harm Bai Zhiqing, and an enraged Bai Qiao Mountain led a cohort of his soldiers to flat out obliterate that force.

As these thoughts crossed his mind, even Chen Dao, a man of great skill and courage, couldn’t help but tremble, his face suddenly turning a shade paler. His Sword Alliance seemed formidable in Modu, but in the eyes of Bai Qiao Mountain, they were like dogs made out of clay, easily shattered.

In Modu, everyone knew there was one entity that should not be provoked, and that was Bai Qiao Mountain.

Though Bai Qiao Mountain was old, his brothers held high positions in the military. Angering Bai Qiao Mountain was akin to poking a hornet’s nest. Overnight, the Sword Alliance could be wiped off the face of the earth, and those foolish soldiers wouldn’t care about your background.

Chen Dao’s face grew increasingly ugly. If an average member of the Sword Alliance had made this move, he could have sacrificed a scapegoat, but unfortunately, it was a vice Hall Master who had acted. Without his nod as the Alliance Hierarch, who would dare to do such a thing? No one would believe him if he said otherwise.

Now, he was in a situation where even if he wasn’t shitting his pants, he still smelled like it.

”Scarface, you son of a bitch, I’m going to tear you to pieces, you’re driving me mad.”

Chen Dao slapped the desk fiercely, his face alight with a crazed intent to kill: ”Bai Qiao Mountain, Bai Zhiqing, this matter is not likely to end well. No, I cannot sit and wait for death. Since the deed is done, there’s no turning back. If that’s the case, then I must strike first, wipe out Bai Qiao Mountain and Bai Zhiqing, and then, even if I die, there will be no evidence against me, and no one will be able to touch me.”

A cold gleam flickered in Chen Dao’s eyes. Since it had come to this, he would eradicate them completely.

...

The night was cool, and the dazzling lights illuminated half of the sky, creating a stark contrast with the outskirts.

After leaving Zero Point Bar, Lu Tianxing moved swiftly, crossing streets like lightning, and soon arrived beside an artificial river, its willow trees weeping over the banks. Directly across was Chen Dao’s private apartment, Half Mountain Apartment.

”Hoo...”

With a long exhale, Lu Tianxing looked up at the bright moon in the sky, revealing a cold smile, ”It’s a night perfect for murder, and although the moon is full, tonight, you are destined to die.”

No sooner had his words faded than Lu Tianxing vanished from his spot, reappearing in the middle of the river. With a light tap of his toes, he drifted towards the brightly lit house on the opposite bank like a floating feather.

In less than a minute, Lu Tianxing was on a road, with Chen Dao’s private apartment not thirty meters in front of him—a three-story building expansive as an ancient mansion.

According to the Rose Society’s investigation, Chen Dao resided in this very building. The first two floors were inhabited by Sword Alliance members tasked with Chen Dao’s protection. Additionally, Chen Dao fortified the apartment like a fortress, making it certain death for any ordinary person to breach it.

Lu Tianxing merely glanced at the private apartment. Surrounded by high walls topped with electrified fences, bodyguards patrolled now and then. The sole entrance was a large door guarded by four Sword Alliance members, which seemed not particularly well-defended.

But Lu Tianxing was under no illusion that the defense was lax. He could almost imagine that if he entered, he would be met with layers of protection.

Sneaking into the private apartment silently and killing Chen Dao would not be difficult, but this time he intended to make an example of him, a warning to those with ill intentions, to deter anyone harboring malice, while also paving a path for the Rose Society.
