Free Web NovelChapter 2055: Chapter 2028: A Mere Outsider
"The dog’s owner?"
Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Han Zifeng immediately said, "Boss, the person you’re dealing with is the one behind the Qingtian Alliance. But from what I know, this person is hidden very deeply. Our Han Family has tried to secretly investigate this person’s identity, but we’ve never made much progress."
At this point, Han Zifeng suddenly stopped, a light flashing in his mind: "Boss, are you saying you know who this person is?"
Lu Tianxing looked at Han Zifeng, just about to speak, when another voice came from behind: "Third Young Master Han, I advise you, it’s better not to know who the mastermind is. It won’t do you any good."
With the voice, a figure emerged from the darkness. Under the faint moonlight, it was clear to see who it was—it was Sima Lingyun.
"Sima Lingyun, you came after all. I thought you planned to stay with the Yanhuang Group and not come out."
Lu Tianxing glanced at the newcomer and casually picked up a can of beer from the table, throwing it to Sima Lingyun.
Sima Lingyun was not polite either, raising his hand to catch the beer directly, opening it without ceremony, and taking a gulp: "Judge, you’re having a good time today. You have no idea how lively Beijing is because of your arrival. No, all of China is lively. Everyone’s eyes are on Beijing to see how you, the main actor, play out this scene."
Upon hearing Sima Lingyun’s slightly mocking words, Lu Tianxing’s expression didn’t change. He simply said, "What does that have to do with me? Can’t I come for a vacation? It’s just that you all are too timid."
Saying so, Lu Tianxing glanced at Sima Lingyun again, slowly standing up, looking at the brightly lit city below, speaking in a calm tone: "Besides, does this world only allow them to come after me but not allow me to go after them? What kind of logic is that? If they want to die, I don’t mind sending them on their way. Anyway, I’ve killed many people, and I don’t care if there are a few more on my hands or how much blood is stained."
"But do you know what you will face this time? Do you think you can take them on?" Sima Lingyun said faintly.
Lu Tianxing retorted, "Do you think I can’t take them on?"
Standing to the side, Han Zifeng looked at the conversation between Lu Tianxing and Sima Lingyun and couldn’t help but say, "Boss, Group Leader Sima, what are you actually talking about? I don’t quite understand. Besides, weren’t we just talking about who the mastermind behind the Qingtian Alliance is? How did it get to this?"
"Third Young Master Han, are you sure you want to know who the mastermind behind the Qingtian Alliance is? Aren’t you afraid of getting yourself involved? It won’t benefit the Han Family in any way."
"Group Leader Sima, do you think I’m the type to be afraid?"
Han Zifeng said with a smile, "Besides, I have already joined the Yama Palace and am now a member of it. Since the Qingtian Alliance wants to destroy us, they are now my enemies. Do you think, after destroying the Yama Palace, the mastermind of the Qingtian Alliance will spare me? Can I escape unscathed?"
"Moreover, if someone now plans to attack my boss, do you think I can stand by and do nothing?"
Hearing Han Zifeng’s words, Sima Lingyun fell into silence immediately. He knew that Han Zifeng owed his life to Lu Tianxing. In Han Zifeng’s heart, Lu Tianxing wasn’t just a brother but also a lifesaver. Now that Lu Tianxing was in trouble, it would be strange if Han Zifeng stood by without raising a finger.
"Alright then! I’ll tell you who the person behind the Qingtian Alliance is."
Sima Lingyun spoke again: "The mastermind behind the Qingtian Alliance is Tang Qingyun, the young master of the Tang Family."
After speaking, Sima Lingyun’s gaze fell on Han Zifeng: "Third Young Master Han, are you sure you still want to get involved in this matter?"
Upon hearing Sima Lingyun’s words, Han Zifeng was slightly stunned and didn’t speak. It wasn’t because he feared Tang Qingyun; it was just that he hadn’t thought about it being him. However, this explained why the Qingtian Alliance could gather a large number of second-rate families in a short time, making them willingly serve and oppose Lu Tianxing. With the Tang Family’s influence, achieving this wasn’t too difficult.
With this thought passing through his mind, Han Zifeng’s expression didn’t change. Instead, he grabbed a can of beer next to him, opened it, took a couple of gulps, and then said: "Group Leader Sima, do you think I’m someone afraid of trouble? So what if it’s Tang Qingyun? He’s the young master of the Tang Family, and I’m the successor to the Han Family! The Tang Family’s power is indeed terrifying, but it’s limited to Shu. This is Beijing, my territory. Whether it’s a dragon, it needs to coil; whether it’s a tiger, it needs to crouch. Could an outsider really think of causing a storm in Beijing?"
Although his words were filled with disdain, Han Zifeng’s eyes showed no sign of underestimating. Tang Qingyun, as the young master of the Tang Family, could appear in Beijing freely. It could be imagined that the Tang Family believed he had the ability to retreat safely. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to let Tang Qingyun stay in Beijing unchecked. After all, as long as Tang Qingyun’s identity was confirmed, whether it was the Lu Family, Lu Tianxing, or Jiang Liufeng, they would not let Tang Qingyun leave Beijing alive.
"Sima Lingyun, you’ve heard it now."
Lu Tianxing suddenly spoke at this moment: "My brothers are not ones you can scare off with a few words. I suggest you stop trying—it won’t work."
Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Sima Lingyun’s eyes flickered slightly. He didn’t continue to dwell on the topic, instead steering away by saying: "What do you plan to do to deal with Tang Qingyun? The Tang Sect’s hidden weapons are unrivaled in the world. It’s impossible that Tang Qingyun doesn’t carry any top-notch weapons for protection. If he seizes an opportunity, you won’t escape death."
"So what?"
Lu Tianxing shrugged and said: "Just don’t give him the chance to act, deliver a punch and kill him straight away. So what if the Tang Sect’s hidden weapons are unrivaled, how would he even get the chance to use them?"
"Do you think you can kill Tang Qingyun in one blow?"
Sima Lingyun said calmly: "From what I know, there’s a high possibility that there are experts protecting Tang Qingyun, and they might even be late-stage Mythical level. Your strength isn’t weak, but dealing with late-stage Mythical level experts won’t be easy."
