In Tang Qingyun’s heart, at least since Lu Tianxing arrived in Beijing, he has always regarded Lu Tianxing as his greatest threat. However, ever since his father called him yesterday, the threat of Lu Tianxing in his heart has drastically decreased, even to the point that if not for the purpose of killing Lu Tianxing to proclaim that his Tang Family is fearless of the Lu Family’s prodigious genius.

Now in Tang Qingyun’s heart, the real threats are Old Master Lu and Jiang Liufeng. As long as these two are killed, then regardless of the forces cultivated by Jiang Liufeng or the Lu Family, in the eyes of the Tang Family, they’re just ants. It doesn’t even require the Tang Family Ancestor’s intervention; the current forces of the Tang Family can effortlessly annihilate the Lu Family and Jiang Liufeng’s forces without any major repercussions.

However, wanting to kill these two people is definitely not an easy task.

Old Master Lu entered the late stage of mythical level more than twenty years ago, and though he’s been plagued by the sword qi in his body these past twenty-plus years, it’s undeniable that Old Master Lu is more formidable than he was over twenty years ago. Killing him is an exceedingly difficult task.

Not to mention Jiang Liufeng, who has been residing on Qin Island these twenty years. Although Jiang Liufeng was poisoned by the top-tier venom, the Falling Leaves, of the Tang Family, his strength has long scattered like falling leaves in the wind. Now his strength is estimated to be at most a Martial Artist of the Yellow Level Realm, but one should not forget that Jiang Liufeng was once a top master on par with Old Master Lu; his insight and experience are still present.

More importantly, Jiang Liufeng has been on Qin Island for these twenty years. Who knows how many skilled individuals Jiang Liufeng has nurtured using his intellect and insight over these twenty years? Even though the visible disciple of Jiang Liufeng is Cangwu, who knows if Jiang Liufeng has secretly cultivated several Cangwus? If Jiang Liufeng has cultivated several Cangwus in secret, it would be a tremendous threat to the Tang Family.

Therefore, now in Tang Qingyun’s heart, and even in the views of the Tang Family, this time Lu Tianxing is bound to die in Beijing, and the greatest threat facing the Tang Family now are only Old Master Lu and Jiang Liufeng. Once these two die, all powers under their name will be unable to withstand.

Yang Anlong, upon hearing Tang Qingyun’s words and seeing Tang Qingyun’s solemn expression, immediately smiled and said, ”Young Master Tang, you can rest assured. After we eliminate Lu Tianxing, our Yang Family will certainly advance and retreat together with the Tang Family, joining forces against Old Master Lu and Jiang Liufeng. Young Master Tang, you can absolutely rest assured of this.”

Listening to Yang Anlong’s confident voice, a gleam of light flashed in Tang Qingyun’s eyes, but he didn’t say anything. He simply lifted his coffee toward Yang Anlong, then lightly took a sip, gazing out the window, leaving people guessing what exactly he was thinking.

...

On the other side, when Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei returned to the villa from outside, Bai Zhiqing had long since returned from the coffee shop and was sitting on the sofa, appearing somewhat lost.

At this moment, Bai Zhiqing’s heart was filled with unease and anxiety, and there was also a sense of confusion within.

Meanwhile, Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei were sitting nearby discussing other matters.

Though Bai Zhiqing occasionally would snap back to reality, occasionally interjecting a word, it was apparent she was somewhat distracted, her responses rather perfunctory, as if she wasn’t interested in the topics Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei were discussing at all.

Lu Tianxing, being a man, wasn’t particularly observant, and didn’t notice anything. He just thought Bai Zhiqing was under too much pressure because of him recently, hence her unwillingness to speak. However, Lin Yafei noticed Bai Zhiqing’s change.

After all, Lin Yafei is a woman and has been best friends with Bai Zhiqing for several years, naturally understanding that Bai Zhiqing must be harboring inner thoughts, and it’s definitely not as Lu Tianxing assumed, simply thinking that the recent pressure was too much.

Lin Yafei signaled to Lu Tianxing to discuss it later, then turned her head to Bai Zhiqing, frowning slightly and said, ”Little Qingqing, what’s the matter? Ever since we returned, you’ve been a bit off. What’s wrong? Did you encounter something?”

Hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Lu Tianxing also turned his head to Bai Zhiqing and asked with concern, ”Wife, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”

”It’s nothing.”

Bai Zhiqing shook her head lightly and said, ”Maybe I’m just a bit unaccustomed to the air changes in Beijing, feeling a bit uncomfortable. I’m fine, I’ll be okay after resting for a while.”

”Why not let Tianxing accompany you to the hospital for a check-up?” Lin Yafei looked at Bai Zhiqing with concern and said.

”No need, I’m not a three-year-old child. I know my own body. A couple of days of rest and I’ll be fine.” Bai Zhiqing laughed lightly, feigning relaxation as she spoke.

The next moment, before Lu Tianxing and Lin Yafei could speak again, Bai Zhiqing diverted the topic and said, ”You went to meet Sima Lingyun today, how did it go? What’s the situation in Xiangjiang now?”

The topic change was indeed effective, and Lu Tianxing furrowed his brow slightly, slowly exhaling a breath and said, ”The situation in Xiangjiang remains grim. These past two days, the Huang Family has been covertly searching for these people’s whereabouts but still hasn’t found any trace.”

”In this way, there are only two explanations: either the opponent is hiding very deeply, so hidden that even the Huang Family and Zhao Long can’t find their whereabouts, or the Huang Family and Zhao Long have already betrayed the Yama Palace, colluding with this third-party force to create a scheme, attempting to wipe out the Yama Palace’s forces. Otherwise, how could it be possible to not find the opponent relying on their forces.”

Bai Zhiqing, hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, suddenly realized the key point and frowned as she spoke, ”Tianxing, if you’re saying that, isn’t Xiao Bing in Xiangjiang very dangerous? If the Huang Family and Zhao Long’s forces are colluding with this mysterious force, wouldn’t the people we sent to Xiangjiang be in grave danger? Shouldn’t we withdraw them all now?”

”It’s useless, Little Qingqing. The people sent to Xiangjiang cannot be withdrawn.”

Before Lu Tianxing could speak, Lin Yafei, sitting next to him, spoke up ahead of him, ”If we withdraw our people from Xiangjiang now, and it turns out the Huang Family isn’t in league with the opponent, then the Huang Family would certainly be annihilated, and whether we can safely bring our withdrawn people back to Beijing would be uncertain. Moreover, if the Huang Family truly is colluding with the opponent, withdrawing our personnel now would only alert them, potentially endangering Xiao Bing.”
