Beauty Chairwoman's Bodyguard Expert

Tang Fengyun was slightly stunned when he heard Tang Fengxing’s words, a thick disbelief on his face. How had it never occurred to him that someone would have such immense nerve, daring to so brazenly provoke the Tang Family? Did that guy really think the Tang Family were a bunch of vegetarians who didn’t dare to kill?

"Big Brother, what are we going to do about this? There’s no way we can swallow this humiliation. We have to hit back hard and let them understand just how terrifying it is to offend our Tang Family." Tang Fengyun spoke through gritted teeth. This concerned the face of the entire clan. If word got out that the Tang Family had been threatened by a woman and didn’t even dare to fart in response, then the Tang Family’s face would be utterly lost.

After hearing Tang Qingyun’s words, Tang Fengxing, for once, did not reject them outright. Instead, he looked at Tang Fengyun and said, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Yes."

Tang Fengyun took a deep breath and said, "Big Brother, aren’t the Lu Family and Huangfu Meigui joining hands to target our external forces? Then we can likewise send people to deal with their forces..."

"You mean to go after the forces under Yama Palace?"

Tang Fengxing frowned and said, "Right now, most of Yama Palace’s strength is in Beijing, and some of their forces are in Jiangnan, or on Qin Island. Those three places—do you think we can even set foot there? Even if we get in, I’m afraid our people will be dead before they can make a move."

"Big Brother, I never said we were going to those places."

An icy glint flashed across Tang Fengyun’s face. "I’m talking about Xiangjiang."

"Xiangjiang?"

Tang Fengxing was slightly taken aback when he heard this. "You’re talking about the Xiangjiang Huang Family?"

"That’s right, the Xiangjiang Huang Family."

Tang Fengyun said lightly, "According to the information we’ve dug up, the Xiangjiang Huang Family was the first force to join Yama Palace. And Yama Palace has a rule: when one of their affiliated forces is under attack and facing life-and-death crisis, they are fully entitled to ask Yama Palace for help..."

Listening to Tang Fengyun, a flash of insight suddenly crossed Tang Fengxing’s mind. He said in a deep voice, "You mean to use the Xiangjiang Huang Family to deal with Yama Palace."

"Exactly."

Tang Fengyun nodded. "As long as the Huang Family dares to call for help from Yama Palace, we can seize that opportunity to lure the bulk of Yama Palace’s power to Xiangjiang, and then wipe them out in one net, turning Xiangjiang into their burial ground."

Hearing the killing intent in Tang Fengyun’s words, Tang Fengxing did not respond immediately. Instead, he lowered his head and sank into deep thought.

Tang Fengyun’s plan was indeed a good one, but it also carried tremendous risk. Using the Huang Family could indeed trick Yama Palace’s strength into Xiangjiang and annihilate them in one swoop. But there was an even more crucial point: if the ones who came were not Yama Palace’s forces, but the Lu Family’s, then the forces the Tang Family sent to Xiangjiang would very likely end up with no burial place at all, with zero chance of survival. The Lu Family would never show mercy to the Tang Family’s people—this was something Tang Fengxing was absolutely certain of.

"Fengyun, you know this plan is extremely risky. If anything goes wrong, our people will be in grave danger." Tang Fengxing looked at Tang Fengyun, his expression solemn.

"Big Brother, I know this plan is very risky, but we have to admit—it’s a very good method."

After hearing Tang Fengyun’s words, Tang Fengyun’s expression remained calm. "More importantly, Xiangjiang isn’t the Lu Family’s turf, nor is it Jiang Liufeng’s turf. Even if the Huang Family’s foundation in Xiangjiang is immense, it’s useless. Placed within China, the Huang Family is, at the end of the day, just a second-rate clan. Once our people enter Xiangjiang, as long as they hide themselves well, a mere Huang Family won’t be able to find where we’re hiding. By then, they’ll be in the open while we’re in the shadows. We’ll be fully capable of grasping every move made in Xiangjiang. If those who come are people from Yama Palace, we strike. If they’re not from Yama Palace, we immediately withdraw. In Xiangjiang, for us, it’s entirely a situation where we can advance or retreat at will—we don’t need to fear anyone."

Hearing Tang Fengyun again, Tang Fengxing once more fell into contemplation.

He had to admit, this was a very good method. Since they couldn’t move against the Lu Family yet, they would start with the people around Lu Tianxing. When the time came, as long as they exterminated the Huang Family and spread word that Yama Palace couldn’t even protect its own forces, then even if Yama Palace had experts sitting in town, its foundations would still be shaken.

After all, Yama Palace was not a traditional family power. It was built up by stacking one force on top of another, forming a pyramid-like structure. It looked solid, but once the foundational stones at the bottom collapsed, Yama Palace would be vulnerable, easily wiped out at any time.

"Click!"

Tang Fengxing suddenly turned and walked toward the desk. He picked up a cigarette, lit it, and only after blowing out a smoke ring did he slowly speak. "Fengyun, your plan is a good one. We’ll do as you say—send people to Xiangjiang to deal with the Huang Family. However, there’s one thing you must remember: do not launch a destructive attack on the Huang Family. We only need to create a sense of panic for them. Everything will wait until the Huang Family asks Yama Palace for help. Once Yama Palace’s people appear in Xiangjiang, we move. If we sense that anything is off, we withdraw immediately."

"Understood, Big Brother. I’ll go make the arrangements right away."

Tang Fengyun nodded, hesitated not in the slightest, and immediately turned to walk out.

Watching Tang Fengyun’s departing back, Tang Fengyun stood rooted to the spot, but an unprecedented weariness flashed across his face. He realized that even twenty-some years ago, the Tang Family had never been forced into such a position. Yet now, a mere Lu Tianxing, a Huangfu Meigui, and a Lu Family that had long since declined actually managed to drive the Tang Family to this point, forcing them to look for other avenues of breakthrough. This was something that had never happened since the Tang Family was founded.

For the Tang Family, this was the greatest humiliation. And to wash away this disgrace, the best way was to cleanse it with the blood of Lu Tianxing and the Lu Family, to use blood to warn everyone that the Tang Family’s majesty was absolutely not to be violated. Otherwise, the only outcome would be death.

"Lu Tianxing, oh Lu Tianxing, I didn’t expect you’d actually grow into an existence capable of threatening our Tang Family. It seems this time we truly cannot let you live. We must tear you to pieces. And your Lu Family—once the Tang Family Ancestor breaks through to the realm of the Earthly Immortal, that will be the day your Lu Family turns to dust."

Tang Fengxing muttered under his breath, his eyes brimming with a bone-deep killing intent, yet he had not lost his reason.

In Tang Fengxing’s heart, he knew very clearly that now was not the time for the Tang Family and the Lu Family to go all-out. Everything had to wait until the Tang Family Ancestor emerged from seclusion. As long as the Tang Family Ancestor broke through to the realm of the Earthly Immortal, then even with the Old Master of Lu Family sitting in town, the Lu Family would still be no match at all.

Moreover, by that time, it wouldn’t just be the Lu Family that would be no match; all the powers in China, and even across the whole world, would be no match in the hands of the Tang Family. From then on, the Tang Family would become the number one power in China and even the world, making countless people look up to them alone. Once they spoke, their words would be as good as divine decree, and no one would dare to refuse.
