Chapter 2245 - 2218: I Have No Other Choice

Since the events in Xiangjiang spread across China, Lu Tianxing’s surroundings have become tumultuous with undercurrents, crises lurking everywhere. The enemies he must face are not just the Tang Family and the Yang Family, but also various forces from China. Should Lu Tianxing face any mishap in Beijing, Old Sir Lu and Jiang Liufeng would definitely go berserk.

Once they are consumed by rage and blinded by hatred, if someone fans the flames at that moment, then the Old Master of Lu Family and Jiang Liufeng would have no qualms about uprooting all forces connected to these events. Combined with the peak battle prowess of the two old masters at the late stage of mythical, this would be enough to stir a storm of bloodshed across China.

"Judge, as long as you are willing to leave Beijing, our Yanhuang Group will spare no effort to send you to Jiangnan." Sima Lingyun spoke heavily once more.

"Spare no effort to escort us back to Jiangnan?"

After hearing Sima Lingyun’s words, Lu Tianxing slowly spoke: "Sima Lingyun, how long do you think your Yanhuang Group can protect me, temporarily or forever? And now, the Tang Family and the Yang Family are not only plotting against me, but also against Yanhuang Group. Are you just going to watch idly as Yanhuang Group falls into the hands of others, becoming a tool for them?"

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Sima Lingyun’s face could not help but flash with a trace of coldness as he snorted, "The Yang Family and the Tang Family will eventually be uprooted by me someday. To think of manipulating Yanhuang Group, wanting Yanhuang Group to become their tool, is simply wishful thinking."

He had painstakingly removed all the black sheep within Yanhuang Group, allowing it to be reborn. Now, the Yang Family and the Tang Family dare to scheme against Yanhuang Group, trying to turn it into their private army, which caused Sima Lingyun’s heart to involuntarily surge with murderous intent.

After hearing Sima Lingyun’s words, Lu Tianxing displayed a smile on his face and said, "Sima Lingyun, you want to destroy the Yang Family and the Tang Family, and so do I. So why don’t we team up to deal with them and catch them all in one sweep?"

"Judge, don’t act recklessly."

Sima Lingyun said in a solemn voice, "The Yang Family is ultimately a top-tier family in Beijing, standing strong in China for hundreds of years, definitely not ordinary. Although your strength is quite formidable now, if you really push them to the brink, you may not be able to withstand them, so don’t act recklessly."

"Of course, I know they are not easy to deal with. I never said I want to destroy them right now. I just want to break one of their arms and make them feel the pain," Lu Tianxing said calmly.

He wasn’t foolish. Of course, he knew that Yang Family, having stood for hundreds of years in China, certainly had a deeper foundation than what appeared on the surface. Who knows how much power the Yang Family hides in the shadows. While he is confident in oppressing the Yang Family until they can’t breathe, he isn’t confident he can easily annihilate them.

Even adding Old Sir Lu and Jiang Liufeng might not be enough to achieve that, and the cost would be unimaginable even if possible.

Lu Tianxing doesn’t aim to destroy the Yang Family now, but to hurt them deeply and make them unable to breathe. Annihilating the Yang Family isn’t urgent.

Moreover, Lu Tianxing believes that the Yang Family may hide tremendous power in the shadows, but such power would not appear easily and would only be revealed in a crisis threatening the family’s extermination. Otherwise, twenty years ago, when Old Sir Lu attacked the Yang Family, they should have used this power.

This is the confidence that emboldens Lu Tianxing to confront the Yang Family head-on. As long as this power doesn’t appear, the Yang Family can’t do anything to him.

After hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Sima Lingyun fell into silence for a while before slowly speaking: "Judge, do you know how much danger lurks around you? Any accident could lead to your destruction."

"Even if nothing unexpected happens, destruction still awaits me."

Lu Tianxing said nonchalantly: "Since that’s the case, why not take a gamble? Maybe a gamble can turn a bicycle into a motorcycle. Do you think I have plenty of time left?"

"Even if I want to retreat now, will the Tang Family and the Yang Family let me go? Not to mention, there’s a Heavenly God who hasn’t shown up yet. Do you think when the Heavenly God reappears, I can withstand him?"

Upon hearing these words, Sima Lingyun fell into silence again. Although he hadn’t interacted with the Heavenly God, from the style of several of Heavenly God’s actions against Lu Tianxing, it was clear he was someone who wouldn’t easily compromise.

The Heavenly God has not appeared during this period, not even when Lu Tianxing wiped out his follower, the Shankou Family, in Japan. This absolutely does not mean the Heavenly God is afraid of Lu Tianxing, but instead, he must be brewing some grand move. The moment the Heavenly God strikes again, it will inevitably be with thunderous means, leaving Lu Tianxing no chance to breathe. Once he makes a move, Lu Tianxing will surely die, and even having Old Sir Lu by his side will be of no avail.

"Sima Lingyun, do you understand now?"

Lu Tianxing’s voice resounded again, calm without stirring any waves, reaching into Sima Lingyun’s mind: "Moreover, don’t you think this is an opportunity?"

"Opportunity?"

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Sima Lingyun was slightly startled, then involuntarily recalled the recent rumors about Lu Tianxing’s cultivation technique. His face suddenly changed: "Judge, what do you want to do? This is a life-threat, one misstep and you’ll be dead with no place to be buried."

"I know, but I have no choice now."

Sima Lingyun heard the resolute answer again, gave a bitter smile and said: "Judge, it seems you’ve made up your mind. All I can do is wish you success. You know what we’re facing in Yanhuang Group now, we can’t help with anything extra, but my master has a message for you; don’t worry about the Yang Family Ancestor making a move, my master will hold him off, but the rest is up to you."

"I understand."

Lu Tianxing thanked, saying: "Convey to your master for me, if I survive, one day I will definitely help him resolve the curse on him."

Upon hearing this, Sima Lingyun gave a bitter smile and said: "Mr. Lu, your sentiment is enough."

At this point, as if recalling something, Sima Lingyun spoke again: "By the way, Mr. Lu, do you know about some incidents that happened to the Qindao Qiu Family?"
