Feeling Royce’s gaze upon him, Lu Tianxing’s expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "What kind of trick do you think is involved here? If you were in my position, would you dare to kill Avril? She is the Holy Daughter of the Church, and the Pope is an invincible powerhouse half-stepping into the realm of an Earthly Immortal. If I killed her, do you think the Pope would let go?"
"Clap, clap, clap..."
As soon as Lu Tianxing finished speaking, the crisp sound of clapping was heard.
Royce clapped his hands with a look of amazent, "Not bad, not bad, a very clever argunt. If it were an ordinary person, I might believe it, but coming from you, Judge, I don’t believe a word. If you truly feared the Pope, then why did you ruthlessly kill the Holy Son of the Church in New York back then? Were you not afraid of the Pope’s retaliation then?"
"Of course, it’s easy to spot this flaw, but many people think that, while killing the Holy Son might make the Pope hate you to the bone, he wouldn’t lower himself to deal with you because you are the Third Young Master of the Lu Family, and the Old Master of Lu Family is an invincible powerhouse. The Pope wouldn’t risk offending the Lu Family over a re Holy Son of the Church. However, if you were to kill the Holy Daughter, then the Pope would undoubtedly retaliate at all costs because it’s a matter of the Church’s face. You feared the Pope would act personally, so you didn’t kill Avril. This scenario might hold so ground, but it’s not enough to be convincing."
"So boldly, I guessed that you and Avril must have a deep relationship. Otherwise, when Avril wanted to kill you, you wouldn’t have spared her. Even if you didn’t kill Avril, she wouldn’t have been able to leave Beijing because as long as Avril remains in China, the Pope wouldn’t act hastily against you, unless he wants Avril dead. But you didn’t imprison Avril in Beijing; instead, you allowed her to return to the Vatican."
At this point, Royce paused, took a cigarette from his pocket, placed it in his mouth, flicked his finger, igniting the cigarette, and took a gentle puff before continuing, "So, Judge, don’t you find this contradictory? If you’re afraid of the Pope’s retaliation, why did you let Avril return to the Vatican? Aren’t you afraid she’ll co back for revenge? Hence, it can be deduced that you and Avril have a good relationship. If not, then you must have another agenda."
Listening to Royce’s words, Lu Tianxing squinted slightly, his expression unwavering as he said, "Since you know all this, why did you invite Avril to Eagle Country and have her cooperate with you? Aren’t you afraid she’ll leak information to ?"
"I know this, but I’m not sure if it’s true, so I invited Avril over to see what kind of relationship you all have. If she indeed has a relationship with you, she would certainly relay the cooperation details to you. Then I could use this opportunity to set a trap for you and completely eliminate you. If she has no relationship with you, it wouldn’t cause us any loss. On the contrary, we can rest assured and team up with Avril against you."
Royce looked calmly at Lu Tianxing, "Unfortunately, I guessed right; Avril likely has a deep connection with you, perhaps even as your woman. Otherwise, you wouldn’t choose to make a move tonight."
Listening to Royce’s analysis, Lu Tianxing’s gaze remained unchanged. He neither denied nor admitted but responded directly, "From what point did you determine my actions are related to Avril?"
"Does this need to be observed?"
Royce shrugged and said, "Besides, Judge, you don’t need to worry; I won’t reveal this information. After all, it’s just my speculation; even if it’s true, others might not believe it. If I reveal this, I might get bitten back by Avril herself, which would be counterproductive."
"Do you think you three can stop ?" Lu Tianxing ignored Royce’s mockery and spoke directly.
This ti, Lu Tianxing didn’t hide anything. Instead, he placed his gaze on Royce and the others, an icy killing intent flashing in his eyes. Tonight, Royce and Hades must die. Otherwise, having enemies with such ticulous mind would be the most terrifying thing in this world.
"Judge, do you think we can’t stop you?"
Royce wore a confident smile and countered, "If I guess correctly, you’ve probably already prepared a backup plan for yourself, haven’t you?"
"You’re absolutely right."
Lu Tianxing nodded, without any concealnt, dealing with smart people, there was no need for detours.
"Lay your plans before taking action, it’s a good strategy."
Royce complinted, "Actually, in my heart, I’ve always admired the old ancestors of China; they could always plan thoroughly before acting, leaving themselves plenty of room for retreat each ti they strike. No wonder people always say that China is the nightmare of foreign forces. Looking at it now, indeed, China is a terrifying country."
Upon saying this, Royce tossed the cigarette from his hand to the ground, gently crushed it with his foot, "But here in the West, there aren’t so many detours, nor so many conspiracies; we only believe in one thing: might makes right. As long as your strength is strong enough, all conspiracy and tricks are illusions, vulnerable and easily broken. However..."
Lu Tianxing didn’t speak, just looked at Royce indifferently, wanting to see what he intended to say next.
"However, I don’t like bloodshed. If you could give the Four Symbols Ring, I might consider giving you a complete corpse, letting your body return peacefully to China. Otherwise, you might really die without a place to be buried today."
"I should thank you then."
Lu Tianxing squinted at Royce, "However, do you think you bunch of worthless beings can stop ?"
"Whether we are worthless or not, you are about to find out."
Royce smiled at Lu Tianxing, but his voice suddenly turned murderous, "Go, kill him."
Before Royce’s voice had even faded, Poison Wolf, Green, and those behind him hesitated not, charging at Lu Tianxing at the first opportunity.
anwhile, Royce stood quietly, watching with a smile, looking entirely as though he were rely enjoying the show.
