Free Web NovelChapter 2061: Chapter 2034: Lu Tianxing Must Die
Upon hearing Tang Fengxing’s words, everyone let out a helpless sigh. The Tang Family Ancestor is currently in seclusion, hoping for a chance to reach the legendary Earthly Immortal realm. If he were disturbed and this led to a loss of progress or even a Qi deviation, it would be a catastrophic disaster for the Tang Family. Without the Ancestor’s presence, the Tang Family would likely fall from its position of prominence in an instant, which is a scenario no one in the Tang Family wishes to see.
"Family Head, are we just going to let this go?"
Tang Liangcai said with some reluctance, "This time, we could completely join forces with the Yang Family to kill Lu Tianxing. As long as we kill Lu Tianxing, even if that old Lu Tiankuang tries to come after us, as long as he dares to set foot in Shu, we can join hands with the Yang Family to make Shu his burial ground."
"This plan won’t work."
Just as Tang Liangcai finished speaking, Tang Zhiwen began to speak: "Teaming up with the Yang Family to kill Lu Tianxing might make dealing with Lu Tiankuang seem easy, but don’t forget, that little bastard Lu Tianxing is also Jiang Liufeng’s grandson. Jiang Liufeng’s apprentice Cangwu is also a Late Stage of Mythical expert. What if they join forces and storm into Shu? Even more crucially, Qingyun is still in Beijing! If we target Lu Tianxing, do you think the Lu Family won’t keep an eye on Qingyun? If we kill Lu Tianxing, do you think Qingyun will escape the Lu Family’s wrath?"
Hearing Tang Zhiwen’s words, the breathing of everyone present seemed to stop for a moment, as they fell into silence. They almost forgot that Tang Qingyun was also in Beijing; if Lu Tianxing were killed, Tang Qingyun would certainly not survive, as the Lu Family would never allow him to leave Beijing alive.
Upon hearing Tang Zhiwen’s remark, Tang Liangcai broke into a cold sweat uncontrollably, feeling a chill down his spine. If they really acted as he suggested and killed Lu Tianxing, Tang Qingyun would be doomed, and he would die without a place to be buried.
After all, he was the one who proposed the idea, and if it led to Tang Qingyun’s death in Beijing, Tang Fengxing would undoubtedly direct his wrath at him, driven by the pain of losing a child.
"Big brother, don’t just sit there smoking, say something."
Tang Fengyun looked at Tang Fengxing and said, "What should we do about this, big brother? Please give us a clear answer, and we will definitely support you."
The others remained silent but again focused their gaze on Tang Fengxing, waiting for his response.
Feeling the weight of everyone’s gaze, Tang Fengxing took a deep breath but didn’t speak immediately. Instead, he firmly pressed the cigarette butt into the adjacent ashtray.
"In fact, Liangcai isn’t wrong; no matter what, Lu Tianxing must die this time."
Tang Fengxing stated word by word: "Lu Tianxing is the wicked genius of the Lu Family, and you’ve all witnessed his rapid growth. Regardless, Lu Tianxing must die, or else it will be our Tang Family that faces annihilation. No matter what, Lu Tianxing must die, and more importantly, we must obtain the Four Symbols Ring from him."
Upon hearing Tang Fengxing’s words, a look of amazement couldn’t help but flash across everyone’s faces. They had heard of the legend of the Four Symbols Ring but always thought it was a fabrication.
As for the events involving the Four Great Families back then, they assumed that the Four Great Families had ventured into a deadly area, which led to their total annihilation. Fearing ridicule, they concocted such an excuse, because otherwise, after all these years, why has no one found the Qi Refiner’s Grave that the Four Great Families attacked?
"Big brother, are you saying that this legend is true?" Tang Fengyun looked at Tang Fengxing, unable to hold back his question.
"I’m not entirely sure, but it’s all instructed by the Ancestor. Otherwise, why do you think I originally sent Lao San to Jiangnan, just to destroy the Lu Family?"
Listening to Tang Fengxing’s words, everyone’s thoughts began to race uncontrollably. If the legend about the Four Symbols Ring were true, and they could obtain it and enter the Qi Refiner’s Grave, then the Tang Family would truly prosper.
It’s known that the Qi Refiner’s Grave, according to legend, not only holds the power for immortality but also wealth rivaling that of entire nations. If the Tang Family could obtain this, they would undoubtedly become the number one family in China, or even the biggest power in the world, unstoppable by anyone.
Even without the power for immortality, having wealth rivaling entire nations would be like adding wings to a tiger for the Tang Family.
Wealth of that magnitude means limitless possibilities. With vast financial resources, the Tang Family could cultivate countless masters, solidifying their strength and transforming into a colossal, invincible family.
For a moment, the usually silent Tang Fengyun could not help but speak up, his eyes glinting with intense fire: "Big brother, I’ve heard the Four Symbols Ring is the key to the Qi Refiner’s Grave. If we get it, can we really obtain the enormous wealth inside?"
The power of immortality seems too distant, but it’s the enormous wealth they need most right now. With it, they can cultivate countless experts and become the top power.
Tang Fengxing slowly exhaled a breath of foul air and said slowly, "I can’t be completely sure if it’s true or not, but the likelihood is over eighty percent. You’ve heard how formidable the Four Great Families were back then, yet their elites vanished overnight, and they nearly faced extinction due to curses, resulting in the current isolation of Ji Xingyun. Once Ji Xingyun dies, the Ji Family will vanish completely. To render the Four Great Families so helpless, I can only think of the mysterious forces of the Qi Refiner’s Grave as capable of such a feat, nothing else comes to mind."
After hearing Tang Fengxing’s words, Tang Fengyun and the others found their eyes gleaming with more intensity. They may not have believed the legend before, but now, even their own Ancestor seeks the Four Symbols Ring, implying the legend is true. If they obtain it and access the Qi Refiner’s Grave, they could strut across China without fear, even facing Ji Xingyun and Lu Tiankuang head-on without concern; taking them down would be easy.
Tang Fengxing slowly surveyed everyone, speaking in a slightly composed tone: "So, no matter what, Lu Tianxing must die this time; he absolutely has to die."
