Capítulo 1253: Chapter 1246: News Brought by Angel

After Bai Zhiqing walked into the bathroom and closed the door, Lu Tianxing didn’t sneak in as usual to enjoy a passionate battle with Bai Zhiqing. Instead, he slowly walked to the balcony, pulled out his phone from his pocket, and dialed Angel’s number: “Angel.”

“My dear Judge, you finally decided to call me. You heartless man, you’ve been in New York for so long and didn’t think to call me. Come clean, have you been charmed by that vixen Li Ya? Darling, do you know what you’re doing? You’re having an affair, understand? Be careful, or people might unite with your wife to take you down.”

Angel’s dissatisfied voice immediately came through the phone.

“Angel, don’t slander me. When did I ever have feelings for Li Ya? She’s just Zhiqing’s classmate, alright.”

“Hehe, classmate? Seems like Lin Yafei is also Bai Zhiqing’s best friend, and Lin Qianru too, yet you still dared to make a move on them. So what if they’re classmates!” Angel said playfully.

“Uh.”

Lu Tianxing’s face went black upon hearing Angel’s words: “Angel, let’s not talk about this and remain good friends.”

“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. I know you’re a heartbreaker, but you owe me one this time. Next time we meet, I want you to battle me till dawn.”

“Battle till dawn, Angel, can you let me off? I can’t handle it.”

Lu Tianxing’s face was dark; this woman was becoming more and more outrageous. At this rate, he’d end up dying in bed one day.

“Hmph, whether you can handle it or not, you must. Otherwise, I’ll tell your wife about all your affairs with mistresses three, four, and five.”

Angel threatened Lu Tianxing fiercely but knew when to stop. Her tone became a bit serious, and she sighed, saying, “Judge, you shouldn’t have come to New York right now.”

“Angel, I know what you want to say, but some things are beyond my control. Whether New York is a dragon’s lair or abyss of hell, I have to go through with it. I can’t afford to lose this time, nor can I lose.” Lu Tianxing said in a grave tone, with a hint of determination.

This time was his only chance. He had to break through to the Middle-stage Mythical in the shortest time, no matter what, he had to achieve this. He couldn’t just stand by and watch Old Master Lu die, because Old Master Lu was his grandfather, one of his few family members in the Lu Family. Even if there was only a sliver of hope, he didn’t want to give up. Otherwise, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

A man can let go of some things, but others must be completed no matter what.

After hearing the resolute tone in Lu Tianxing’s voice, Angel fell silent. She didn’t know what happened after Lu Tianxing went to Jiangnan, but she could tell Lu Tianxing had made up his mind to stay in New York, regardless of the countless people who wanted his life there.

Taking a deep breath, Angel said solemnly, “Judge, do you need my help?”

Angel knew she couldn’t say anything now, Lu Tianxing wouldn’t leave New York no matter what she said. All she could do now was give her utmost to help her man.

“Angel, I’ve already sent Little Bee to find out how many people are trying to come after me, but I’m worried relying on Little Bee alone isn’t enough. I need your Angel Intelligence Station to help me investigate, preferably to identify which forces are involved.” Lu Tianxing said in a serious tone.

“Judge, I’ve already investigated what you mentioned. Those targeting you this time are from the Church and the Shankou Family. The Church sent Holder Owen, their Saint Heir, to New York. His power isn’t weak; his light-type powers have reached the Peak of Early Stage Mythical. Besides him, there are three Red Cardinals with him, one of whom has broken through to the Middle-stage Mythical. Additionally, the Church has also dispatched the Cross Expedition Army, it seems the Church is determined to keep you in New York forever.”

Angel paused slightly, took a deep breath, and said: “Aside from the Church, the Shankou Family in RB also wants to deal with you. Leading this operation for the Shankou Family is Shankou Hongyi, an extreme right-wing figure with strong abilities, already reaching the Middle-stage Mythical realm. Moreover, he hasn’t learned traditional RB ninjutsu but had previously gone to the Shaolin Temple with a hidden identity to learn martial arts. However, he didn’t officially enter, only studied under an old monk briefly, but I’m not sure exactly what he learned, because after Shankou Hongyi left, that old monk died.”

Angel expressed a bit of regret, thinking if the old monk hadn’t died, she might have been able to discover what Shankou Hongyi had learned. After all, there’s a saying, know your enemy and yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles without defeat. Knowing Shankou Hongyi’s methods would make dealing with him much easier.

“The Church! The Shankou Family!”

After hearing Angel’s words, Lu Tianxing snorted coldly, a cold gleam flashed in his eyes, and his tone carried a hint of ruthless intent: “Do you know why the Church would make a move against me? I don’t recall ever having any interaction with them.”

“I don’t know too much.”

Angel shook her head and said: “However, it should have something to do with your wife.”

Lu Tianxing frowned: “With Zhiqing? What do you mean?”

“I’m not exactly sure either, I just know Holder Owen once pursued Bai Zhiqing, but was rejected by her. Later, Holder Owen left the United States, and after he became the Church’s Saint Heir, everyone treated it as a joke and didn’t pay much attention to it. I can’t verify if it’s true or not.”

Angel slowly began speaking: “If that counts as one reason, then another reason would likely be related to events from decades ago.”

“You mean the severance event.”

Lu Tianxing frowned. Back then, the Church wanted to send people officially into China to preach but it ended without any results. Since then, China severed all ties with the Church.

Angel nodded and said: “You’re right, but not entirely. When the Church entered China, they weren’t stopped by authorities, but by Chinese martial artists, and they even killed many from the Church, including members of the Cross Expedition Army. Eventually, the Church had no choice but to withdraw from China.”
