Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 187: Chapter 187: The Luo Family Must Never Be His Enemy

Qin Tianxuan had already noticed the twelve burly men. He gave a faint smile. "Not bad. This place is wide open, perfect for a spar. Are they coming all at once, or one by one?"

’Damn, he looks down on the heroes of my Luo Family this much?’

Luo Tianying turned around. "The twelve of you, go test him out!"

But the twelve Luo Family disciples didn’t move an inch. They had been staring wide-eyed and muttering to each other ever since Qin Tianxuan appeared.

"Are you all deaf?" Luo Tianying roared.

He felt he had lost a lot of face.

Only then did the twelve family disciples shuffle forward reluctantly, their eyes still fixed on Qin Tianxuan, a hint of panic in their gaze.

"No way, it can’t be *him*..."

"Yeah, Lord Night Emperor wouldn’t just show up here, but..."

They exchanged whispers.

At that moment, Qin Tianxuan grew impatient. He pointed at the most muscular one. "Luo Xiaolong, you’re a Captain in the Battle Department. What are you doing? Why are you dawdling like an old woman?"

Luo Xiaolong, a hero of the Luo Family’s new generation, had already reached the rank of Captain in the Battle Department!

He and a few of his brothers-in-arms had been commended during a military exercise years ago, and from a distance, they had seen Lord Night Emperor once.

That was, without a doubt, their moment of glory, and the memory was etched into their minds.

Now, with Qin Tianxuan appearing in civilian clothes, they had a vague feeling it was him, but from a distance, they didn’t dare to be certain.

But the moment he spoke, they recognized him immediately.

Qin Tianxuan had even called out Luo Xiaolong’s position as Captain without a second thought!

With a THUD, Luo Xiaolong fell to his knees!

The remaining Luo Family elites behind him also fell to their knees with a series of THUDS.

In an instant, the soft lawn was covered with kneeling figures.

The cigar fell from Eldest Young Master Luo Tianying’s mouth, his eyes wider than marbles.

He grabbed a confidant by his side and roared, "What the fuck is going on? Isn’t Luo Xiaolong supposed to be one of the family’s elites? Aren’t they the experts you brought?"

The confidant was also dumbfounded. He scrambled over and kicked Luo Xiaolong viciously. "What are you doing? Get up and fight him!"

But Luo Xiaolong’s blood ran cold, and his face was a mask of terror.

The man standing before them was actually Lord Night Emperor!

’My god, has the Eldest Young Master lost his mind?’

’Of all the people to offend, he had to offend the Night Emperor?!’

The men behind Luo Xiaolong were also drenched in a cold sweat.

Qin Tianxuan frowned and walked over. "Luo Xiaolong, you’re not going to fight?"

"This lowly one... n-no... I wouldn’t dare..." Luo Xiaolong stammered.

Qin Tianxuan was speechless. "During the Western Domain campaign, you were quite the fierce general. I remember you charging bravely into battle; you left a good impression. For your sake, I’ll let this matter go today!"

Luo Xiaolong was so moved he almost cried.

’He’s doing this for my sake!’

’Just because of the camaraderie we shared fighting side-by-side on the battlefield back then, Lord Night Emperor is giving me this immense honor!’

He kowtowed again, his head hitting the ground. "This lowly one will go back and explain this matter clearly to the family. Even our Young Master... he was deceived by others!"

Qin Tianxuan’s expression darkened. "Are you trying to plead for Luo Tianying?"

The light in Luo Xiaolong’s eyes dimmed. "This lowly one wouldn’t dare!"

Qin Tianxuan leaned down. "My identity must not be revealed. Understand?"

A chill went through Luo Xiaolong’s heart.

’Judging by the way our Young Master is acting, he has no idea of Mr. Qin’s identity.’

’Now that the Night Emperor has personally ordered him not to reveal it, isn’t this just watching the Luo Family jump into a pit of fire?’

But he had no choice but to obey!

He kowtowed deeply once more.

Qin Tianxuan smiled faintly, then turned to the dumbstruck Luo Tianying. "Looks like you can only stand there and watch me leave."

Watching Qin Tianxuan’s cool and effortless departure, Luo Tianying trembled all over.

He glared at the twelve family elites. "Lock these losers up! Find out why they were so disgraceful!"

A subordinate’s brows knitted together. "Young Master, something doesn’t feel right. Xiaolong is the most promising of his generation in the family and already holds the rank of Captain. For him to suddenly kneel... could it be that this Qin Tianxuan has an extraordinary status?"

Luo Tianying pulled up the file on his phone and shoved it in the subordinate’s face. "This is Qin Tianxuan’s file! You find it! Find where it says his status is so extraordinary!"

Of course, there was nothing to be found in the file.

The Luo Family’s so-called think tank was completely baffled.

They locked Luo Xiaolong and the others in the villa’s basement and took turns interrogating them.

Luo Xiaolong’s expression was calm. From beginning to end, he said only one thing: "Mr. Qin’s status is extraordinary. The Luo Family must not make an enemy of him!"

’What the hell is going on?’

Several of the Luo Family’s trusted confidants gathered in private and began to discuss in low voices.

"To make Luo Xiaolong kneel on the spot, and he’d rather die than reveal the man’s identity... this Qin Tianxuan is no simple character!"

"I think I’ve figured out his identity!"

Everyone looked at the subordinate Young Master Luo trusted most.

The man lit a cigarette and took a deep drag. "Only the identity of the one from the Northern Domain could scare Luo Xiaolong like this!"

’The one from the Northern Domain?’

The subordinates’ faces turned pale in an instant!

"It’s... it’s him?"

They didn’t even dare to speak the Night Emperor’s name.

The trusted subordinate nodded grimly. "It’s the only possibility. We all know the Night Emperor is in Jinling! Now you should understand."

The other subordinates all lit cigarettes. "Brother, we’ve followed Young Master Luo for years and done plenty of bad things. What should we do? We all trust you!"

That trusted subordinate viciously stubbed out his cigarette. "I’ve already decided to skip town. I’m going back, transferring my money, and then I’m leaving immediately to live under a new name!"

At this, the confidant’s eyes filled with fear. "Going against Lord Night Emperor? A small fry like the fucking Luo Family is just asking for death. Hmph, forget the Luo Family—even their backers, the Divine Doctor Ye Family, plus the entire Daqin Royal Family, would be nothing but cannon fodder!"

There was no time to delay. They left the basement, transferred the money from their accounts that very night, and fled.

Early the next morning, as a drowsy Luo Tianying was just yawning—the two beautiful girls he had just hooked up with still clinging to him—the bad news started rolling in, one piece after another.

"What? My think tank has disappeared?"

"What? My most trusted guy skipped town?"

"Damn it! The family took Luo Xiaolong and his men back? Where is my authority as the Eldest Young Master?"

Overnight, Eldest Young Master Luo had become a general with no army!
