Chapter 2220 - 2193: Plotting Against Each Other?Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa in Shallow Bay.
Even though it’s approaching early winter, and the weather has become cold, Huang Zhengde seems unaffected by the chill, as does Huang Yuanzheng standing beside him.
Father and son sit on a stone bench in the courtyard, with a pot of Longjing tea and two teacups placed on the stone table.
The tea has been sitting for an unknown period and has already turned slightly cold.
"Dad, have you really decided to invite the Third Young Master of the Lu Family to our Huang Family today?" Huang Yuanzheng said, frowning.
Honest feelings from within, Huang Yuanzheng actually does not want Lu Tianxing to come to the Huang Family now. It’s not that he doesn’t appreciate gratitude, but meeting Lu Tianxing at this moment is quite awkward. During the days Tang Wenhu was in Xiangjiang, he attempted several times to betray the Yama Palace—although he didn’t act upon it, he was exposed by others. Now Lu Tianxing is coming to the Huang Family; meeting him at this time is bound to be awkward.
"Do you think I shouldn’t invite the Third Young Master of the Lu Family to our Huang Family?" Huang Zhengde calmly asked Huang Yuanzheng.
After hearing Huang Zhengde’s words, Huang Yuanzheng paused for a moment, then spoke up: "Dad, that’s not what I meant. I just think now isn’t the right time, and also..."
"Nonsense."
Before Huang Yuanzheng could finish, Huang Zhengde interrupted unceremoniously: "When do you think is the right time? Until the Third Young Master of the Lu Family and the Yang Family, Tang Family determine a winner? Do you think by that time our Huang Family is still the number one family in Xiangjiang? Do you think in the Third Young Master of the Lu Family’s heart, our Huang Family is seen as ungrateful or heartless?"
"Do you truly believe the Third Young Master of the Lu Family knows nothing? Do you believe once the Third Young Master of the Lu Family leaves Xiangjiang, the top family in Xiangjiang will change hands? The reason Zhao Long hasn’t acted against us is simply due to the good relationship between the Third Young Master of the Lu Family and Feiyu, acknowledging our Huang Family isn’t easy to deal with. But if the Third Young Master of the Lu Family changes his view of our Huang Family, do you think Zhao Long wouldn’t dare to take action against our Huang Family?"
Listening to Huang Zhengde’s words, Huang Yuanzheng suddenly found himself at a loss for words. His mouth moved, but he couldn’t utter a single sentence. Without the friendship between Lu Tianxing and Huang Feiyu, it would be almost impossible for the Huang Family to become the top force in Xiangjiang.
"Do you understand now?"
Huang Zhengde glanced at Huang Yuanzheng, speaking indifferently: "Do you truly think the Third Young Master of the Lu Family is easy to fool, or do you believe the Third Young Master of the Lu Family is definitely doomed? Do you really think the Tang Family and the Yang Family can possibly deal with the Third Young Master of the Lu Family?"
Huang Yuanzheng didn’t speak, but the fleeting expression on his face betrayed his inner thoughts.
"Yuanzheng, you are mistaken. The Third Young Master of the Lu Family won’t lose. When have you ever seen the Third Young Master of the Lu Family fight a battle without assurance? Initially, Zhao Lin and others thought they could kill the Third Young Master of the Lu Family, but what was the outcome? Zhao Lin died, and the Zhao Family was obliterated. Look at how many forces have been enemies with the Third Young Master of the Lu Family, but what was the final result for them?"
Huang Zhengde exhaled slowly, speaking: "Wanting to kill the Third Young Master of the Lu Family is easier said than done. This time, the Yang Family and Tang Family indeed hold the advantage of time, place, and people. If the Third Young Master of the Lu Family dares to act, he will become the target of all. Yet, the Yang Family and Tang Family have justified reasons to deal with him. But don’t forget, behind the Third Young Master of the Lu Family stands Lu Tiankuang—a figure who made Beijing bleed rivers of blood twenty years ago. He is also Jiang Liufeng’s grandson. Do you think the Tang Family and the Yang Family can deal with him?"
"Wasn’t Jiang Liufeng crippled?"
"Crippled?"
Upon hearing Huang Yuanzheng’s words, he gently tapped the table, shook his head, and replied: "Indeed, Jiang Liufeng was crippled, but do you know what is most terrifying in this world? The most terrifying thing isn’t how strong one’s martial prowess is, but it’s a person’s mind. Jiang Liufeng might lack strength, but he still was a Late Stage of Mythical Martial Artist, possessing cultivation experience. Do you think in the past twenty years, he hasn’t prepared sufficient resources to seek revenge?"
"Do you really think Jiang Liufeng can swallow this bitterness, and watch his daughter and son-in-law being schemed against by the Yang Family and Tang Family, left with no burial place?"
On hearing Huang Zhengde’s words, Huang Yuanzheng shivered all over: "Dad, you mean this time the Third Young Master of the Lu Family’s trip to Beijing is laid out as a plan jointly by the Lu Family and Jiang Liufeng, intending to capture the Yang Family and Tang Family in one fell swoop?"
With this thought flashing in his mind, Huang Yuanzheng trembled more intensely. After all, whether it be the Tang Family or the Yang Family, they are top-level forces. In terms of depth or anything else, they are incomparable to ordinary forces. If an average person offends such a force, they would likely be uneasy day and night. Yet this time, Lu Tianxing intends to plot against two top-notch forces—what boldness it takes to carry out such a plan! A slight mistake and it would all be over.
Huang Zhengde glanced at Huang Yuanzheng’s expression, letting out a faint sigh: "If my guess is correct, that is likely the case. Moreover, I have a feeling that the Tang Family and Yang Family are going to suffer badly this time. Even if not completely destroyed, they will be severely weakened."
"Dad, do you think the Yang Family and Tang Family are unaware of this?" Huang Yuanzheng asked, frowning.
"They know, but knowing it makes no difference!"
Huang Zhengde spoke in an extremely indifferent tone: "You’ve heard the rumors circulating these past few days—the Third Young Master of the Lu Family’s cultivation technique allows him to cultivate through battle, breaking through barriers in combat. Several months ago, he was only at the Heavenly Peak level. But now, he has reached the Middle-stage Mythical Level and possesses combat power rivaling Late Stage of Mythical; do you think the Tang Family and Yang Family dare to let the Third Young Master of the Lu Family continue to grow?"
Will the Tang Family and Yang Family allow Lu Tianxing to keep growing?
The answer is, of course, no—absolutely not.
In mere months, he surpassed the journey that ordinary people take ten, twenty years to complete. If they let Lu Tianxing continue to grow, it would spell disaster for the Yang Family and Tang Family.
Looking at Lu Tianxing’s record since his debut, it has always been that if people don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them; if they do, it’s kill them all. The repeated aggressions from the Tang Family and Yang Family probably filled Lu Tianxing’s heart with killing intent. Nevertheless, lacking strength, he couldn’t retaliate against the Tang Family and Yang Family, thus allowing them to scheme against him.
Once Lu Tianxing reaches the Late Stage of Mythical Level, expect him to act against the Tang Family and Yang Family first, uprooting them entirely.
