Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Following Huang Yuanzheng’s gaze, an elderly man nearing seventy slowly walked in from outside. This man had a ruddy complexion, yet his eyes appeared somewhat cloudy. However, if you looked closely, you would notice that there was a trace of wisdom in those cloudy eyes, a glimmer of insight into the human heart.

”Dad, why are you here? Weren’t you resting?”

Upon seeing the old man, Huang Yuanzheng quickly extinguished the cigarette in his hand, placing it in the ashtray, and stood up from the sofa.

Huang Zhengde glanced at Huang Yuanzheng, then at the pile of cigarette butts in the ashtray, frowning slightly as he said, ”Yuanzheng, you rarely smoke. Why have you smoked so much today?”

”Dad, it’s because of the recent events in Xiangjiang. I just can’t calm down.”

Huang Yuanzheng sighed deeply. Although the Huang Family held significant influence in Xiangjiang, within China, especially in the eyes of those top families, the Huang Family was at most an insignificant power. It would be incredibly easy to annihilate the Huang Family.

Hearing Huang Yuanzheng’s words, Huang Zhengde also sighed in his heart, sitting down on the sofa as he slowly said, ”Are you worried that Yama Palace won’t be able to help our Huang Family?”

”Dad, I...”

”No need to explain, you’re my son. Do you think I don’t understand my own son’s thoughts?”

Huang Zhengde waved his hand to interrupt Huang Yuanzheng, speaking in a calm tone, ”Yuanzheng, do you think our Huang Family has any other options now? There’s only one path in front of us: trusting Yama Palace, believing that Yama Palace can help our Huang Family overcome this crisis. It’s the only path we can take; all other paths lead to death.”

”I know you once thought of leaving Yama Palace, even contemplated joining forces with the mysterious power this time to deal with Yama Palace. But you should know what the consequences of such actions would be: it would completely enrage the Third Young Master of the Lu Family. Once the Third Young Master of the Lu Family comes to Xiangjiang, what fate do you think awaits our Huang Family?”

Upon hearing these words, Huang Yuanzheng’s breathing became somewhat rapid. The fate of the Huang Family would undoubtedly be utter devastation, blood flowing like a river.

”You should be grateful you didn’t put this thought into action but chose to believe in Yama Palace. Otherwise, I wouldn’t hesitate to capture you and hand you over to Yama Palace for punishment. Although you are my son, I don’t wish for the entire Huang Family to fall into crisis because of you.”

”Dad, I understand my mistake in handling this matter. It won’t happen again.”

”As long as you understand. Some things are better left as thoughts, never to be put into action, or they will only bring harm to others and yourself.”

Huang Zhengde glanced at Huang Yuanzheng, without delving further into the matter, as he calmly asked, ”Do you think Yama Palace won’t win this time?”

”Yes!”

Huang Yuanzheng nodded and said, ”Dad, you should know how strong and terrifying those who broke into our Huang Family are. The middle-stage mythical experts we recruited couldn’t pose any threat to them and were directly suppressed. Even though Yama Palace has sent many masters, and the Yanhuang Group is secretly assisting, I think you can guess the enemy’s intention is to deal with Yama Palace.”

”Given this, they must have anticipated Yama Palace sending people. Do you think they wouldn’t be prepared in the shadows? Wouldn’t they have prepared enough manpower to deal with Yama Palace?”

Here, Huang Yuanzheng paused, exhaling a deep breath before continuing, ”Since they know this, they would certainly have made complete preparations. Even if Yama Palace sends people to Xiangjiang with the Yanhuang Group secretly assisting, I fear Yama Palace may still be powerless against them. On the contrary, they might even be completely annihilated by the enemy...”

Listening to Huang Yuanzheng, Huang Zhengde didn’t interrupt but quietly listened to him without saying a word.

Not until Huang Yuanzheng finished did Huang Zhengde finally ask, ”What do you think of the Third Young Master of the Lu Family?”

”A very frightening person.”

Surprised by Huang Zhengde’s question, Huang Yuanzheng gave his assessment, ”I’ve never seen such a terrifying young man. His methods and everything else far surpass his peers. He’s undoubtedly incomparable to ordinary people. If he doesn’t die, in the next hundred years, everyone will live under his shadow; no one will surpass him.”

Huang Yuanzheng gave an extremely high evaluation. To know that within a century, many talents would emerge, yet he firmly believed no genius would surpass Lu Tianxing in this hundred years, highlighting the evaluation’s significance.

Listening to Huang Yuanzheng, Huang Zhengde nodded silently and said, ”Since you know the Third Young Master of the Lu Family is very frightening, do you think he would be unaware? Wouldn’t he know the enemy intends to use the excuse of annihilating our Huang Family to lure Yama Palace’s people to Xiangjiang for a complete roundup? If you can guess, do you think the Third Young Master of the Lu Family can’t?”

Upon hearing his father’s words, Huang Yuanzheng’s body shuddered slightly, ”Dad, you mean...”

”That’s exactly what I mean.”

Interrupting Huang Yuanzheng, he said, ”In the eyes of the Third Young Master of the Lu Family, he never fights a battle he’s not sure of winning. Since he dared to let Yama Palace’s people appear in Xiangjiang, it indicates he has made thorough preparations. Regardless of which force is coming to Xiangjiang, if they dare to reveal themselves, I guarantee they won’t see the sunrise tomorrow. Their fate is the same: a dead end.”

Listening to this, Huang Yuanzheng took a deep breath and said, ”Dad, I understand.”

”Good that you understand.”

Huang Zhengde looked deeply at Huang Yuanzheng and said lightly, ”Since our Huang Family chose to join Yama Palace, we must follow them to the end, to see if our choice was wrong.”

At the end, Huang Zhengde’s voice bore a hint of determination.

Back when he met Lu Tianxing, he took a gamble, and he won, making the Huang Family the most prominent family in Xiangjiang, even surpassing Zhao Long. This time, he would gamble again, betting on Lu Tianxing’s victory. If he wins, the Huang Family’s influence might further advance, becoming one of China’s great families.

Hearing Huang Zhengde’s words again, the heavy expression on Huang Yuanzheng’s face eased significantly, as he sat on the sofa, bowing his head in contemplation.
