Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

”I heard Lin Demon mention it before.”

Lu Tianxing nodded and said, ”Why, the esteemed leader of the Yanhuang Group is concerned about these things?”

”I am the leader of the Yanhuang Group, so naturally, I have to care about these matters.”

Sima Lingyun said calmly, ”Do you need help?”

”No need. I can handle these matters myself. It’s just the right opportunity to see who is a friend and who is an enemy. If someone seeks death, I don’t mind sending them on their way.”

”Judge, don’t kill the innocent indiscriminately.”

This time, Sima Lingyun did not persuade Lu Tianxing. Benefits entice the heart; if some people seek death, no matter how you try to talk them out of it, it won’t help. They will find you bothersome instead. It’s better to watch them turn to dust than become hated.

”Rest assured, I know the limits.”

”Since that’s the case, I won’t say anything further. I have other matters to handle. I’ll hang up now.”

With that, Sima Lingyun didn’t give Lu Tianxing a chance to speak again and directly hung up the phone.

Listening to the busy tone from the other end, Lu Tianxing slowly put the phone down on the sink, gazed into the mirror at himself, and his lips curled into a bloodthirsty smile. He promised not to kill indiscriminately, but he also believed in one saying: towards enemies, one must eradicate evil completely, eliminate them root and branch, regardless of whether the opponent is male or female, old or young, or an ant attempting to defy heaven. He didn’t want anyone seeking revenge against him decades later.

After taking a deep breath once more, Lu Tianxing didn’t linger in the restroom and directly turned to walk downstairs.

As soon as he descended the stairs, Lu Tianxing was momentarily stunned. He saw Bai Zhiqing and Lin Yafei, the two women who had just been at odds, now chatting and laughing in the dining room, showing no sign of their prior animosity. If someone unaware saw this scene, they would surely think Bai Zhiqing and Lin Yafei were the best of friends, rather than being adversaries.

After being slightly stunned, Lu Tianxing quickly snapped back to reality and didn’t find anything strange. If Bai Zhiqing wanted to fall out with Lin Yafei, it probably would have happened eight hundred years ago, leaving no chance of them becoming best friends. Given Lin Yafei’s personality, it would be more surprising if she hadn’t teased Bai Zhiqing at some point.

Moreover, with Lin Yafei’s gift of gab, trying to stage a dramatic face-off between best friends is nearly impossible.

”What are you standing there for? Come on over and have breakfast. Don’t you want breakfast anymore?” Bai Zhiqing said, looking at Lu Tianxing.

”Uh, okay.”

Lu Tianxing snapped back to reality at Bai Zhiqing’s words and quickly sat down beside her.

”Tianxing, who was calling you just now? Did something happen?” Bai Zhiqing asked, looking at Lu Tianxing.

”It was Sima Lingyun.”

Lu Tianxing picked up a bun, took a big bite, and then continued, ”It wasn’t anything particularly important. He just mentioned in passing that his master will shield me from the Yang Family Ancestor.”

Just as Lu Tianxing finished speaking, Lin Yafei eagerly prompted, ”Little man, will the Yang Family Ancestor make a move too?”

Lin Yafei frowned slightly, ”Little man, as far as I know, the Yang Family Ancestor entered the late stage of Mythical decades ago. Though he may not have reached the realm of Earthly Immortal, his abilities are likely still at the peak of Late-stage Mythical, standing among those at the top of the pyramid. Are you sure Sima Lingyun’s master can withstand the Yang Family Ancestor?”

”Lin Demon, you’re underestimating Sima Lingyun’s master.”

Lu Tianxing slowly said, ”You forget the events of over twenty years ago. Back then, my grandfather stormed the Yang Family, killed Yang Shenxing’s brother Yang Fengxing before their eyes, and caused a bloodbath in the Yang Family. By all accounts, that should have been a grudge of unwavering hatred, yet Yang Family, even with the strength to kill my grandfather, ceased their aggression when Ji Xingyun appeared. Do you think that was simply because Ji Xingyun was the leader of the Yanhuang Group?”

Listening to Lu Tianxing’s words, Lin Yafei nodded slightly. Indeed, if Ji Xingyun’s being the leader alone could not deter the Yang Family, especially after the Lu Family flooded their grounds with blood. For a top family to swallow such humiliation would be strange.

Yet, after Ji Xingyun appeared, Yang Family chose to swallow their anger, clearly not just fearing Ji Xingyun’s identity but also his power. After all, the Old Master Lu himself came knocking and killed many in the Yang Family. Even if Yang Family were to destroy the Old Master, the Yanhuang Group would find it hard to intervene at that point, but Yang still chose to relent, showing that their fear of Ji Xingyun’s abilities wasn’t unfounded.

Furthermore, the Old Master Lu was long plagued by the Void Invisible Sword Energy, making him unable to act, yet the Yang Family refrained from moving against the Lu Family. The reason, most likely, was the concern that if they harmed Old Master Lu, Ji Xingyun might not let Yang Family off easily.

”Little man, understood.”

Lin Yafei nodded, looking at Lu Tianxing said, ”Little man, do you plan to uproot the Yang Family this time?”

”Uprooting the Yang Family is premature.”

Lu Tianxing shook his head lightly and said, ”As they say, a starving camel is bigger than a horse. Yang Family has stood firm in China for hundreds of years, highlighting their terrifying foundation. Although we’ve overwhelmed them now, Yang Family has not opted for the last resort with us, showing they still don’t view us as a threat capable of endangering their existence. Otherwise, upon my entry to Beijing, Yang should have had me killed, rather than teaming up with Tang Qingyun.”

”Part of this is perhaps they fear my grandfather’s power, but fear alone wouldn’t deter Yang Family from making a move against me.”

Hearing this, Lin Yafei nodded, glancing at Bai Zhiqing, with a flicker of thought deep in her eyes, she looked at Lu Tianxing and said, ”Little man, wondering if you have time today, would you accompany me to take a walk to Yama Palace? If Qingtian Alliance attempts to harass Yama Palace, having you there would be safer, and besides, Yama Palace is something you established with your own hands. You’ve been in Beijing for so long yet haven’t seen its real power. How about I accompany you to have a look today?”

As she spoke, Lin Yafei discreetly winked at Lu Tianxing, followed by another subtle glance at Bai Zhiqing, hinting subtly.
