586: Chapter 582: The Tan Family is Destroyed 586: Chapter 582: The Tan Family is Destroyed Seeing Director Sun’s reaction, Tan Ran’s face, which had been full of pride, drained of color in an instant, and his heart turned cold.
Sun Buping’s reaction told him outright that the Flamingo and their cohort were not to be trifled with, and that even the people behind him dare not offend them, otherwise such a look would not have appeared on his face.
It’s over!
The Tan Family is finished!
All the Tan Family mbers’ faces turned to utter panic.
They could not have imagined that Lu Tianxing had managed to enlist the military’s help and this ti, it seed no one could save them.
Lin Zhanpeng watched the scene, a serious expression surfacing on his face as he speculated about Lu Tianxing’s identity.
What could it be that even the military was willing to back him up?
Could it be that he is a secret mber of the military?
Lin Zhanpeng shook his head, quickly dismissing the idea.
If Lu Tianxing were a mber of the military, he would not have chosen to infiltrate the Tan Family but instead would’ve used his military status to simply wipe them out.
The people around, observing Director Sun’s pale and haughty face, imdiately understood the situation; the Tan Family had truly hit an iron wall this ti, offending soone way above their own standing.
Lu Tianxing, the fierce dragon that had crossed the river, had thoroughly suppressed the local snake, the Tan Family.
“Director Sun, you can take your n and leave now.
This matter does not concern you anymore.
Additionally, inform your superiors that they are no longer allowed to intervene in this matter, or else we won’t hesitate to chop off their claws.
Understood?” the Flamingo said flatly, looking at Sun Buping.
“Yes, yes, I’ll rember to pass on the ssage,” he replied.
Director Sun wiped the sweat from his forehead, no longer daring to say anything more.
He waved to his n to follow him and promptly left the Tan Family villa.
If it had only been the Flamingo, maybe he would have dared to push back since they were from different systems.
However, the mont he saw the docunt issued from within the military, any thought of resistance vanished.
He could only hope this matter wouldn’t implicate him and that he could retire peacefully.
Director Sun also secretly rejoiced; it was fortunate that he had not arrested Lu Tianxing.
If he had done so before the Flamingo arrived, he wouldn’t even be able to escape himself.
Watching Director Sun leave with his tail between his legs, Tan Ran’s face turned ashen.
He would have collapsed on the spot if not for the people supporting him.
He seed to age decades in just a mont, no longer displaying the spirited confidence he had before, instead replaced by a thick sense of dread.
It’s all over!
The Tan Family is finished!
Luo Hun was dead, the Tan Family had lost their top fighter, and now even the military was involved.
It was likely that all the connections the Tan Family had cultivated would be severed.
The kind of people who are fair-weather friends would, after hearing Director Sun’s words, likely be eager to dissociate themselves from the Tan Family, let alone offer help again.
As for the other powers in Hang City, they’d be lucky if they didn’t kick the Tan Family while they were down.
Lin Qianru and the others were also stunned.
Nobody had anticipated the situation to shift so rapidly.
Sun Buping and his entourage, who were so imposing just monts ago, had just walked out without any reluctance.
Who was Lu Tianxing, and how did he have such great influence?
Not just her, everyone present was taken aback, gaping at the scene.
They had originally thought they would witness a fierce battle, but it seed they had thought too much.
Lu Tianxing wouldn’t have so brazenly barged in if he wasn’t absolutely confident.
Lu Tianxing remained expressionless, watching with a faint smile on his lips, as if he had already foreseen the outco.
“Get so people to take all the Tan Family mbers back with us.
If anyone tries to flee, execute them on the spot,” he ordered.
The Flamingo waved his hand, directing his n to take control of the Tan Family mbers before turning to Lu Tianxing, “Brother Lu, everything is taken care of.
How do you want to deal with these people from the Tan Family?
Shall we find an opportunity to…”
The Flamingo didn’t finish speaking but gestured a cut across his neck with his palm, the aning quite obvious.
“No need for that.
They will face justice for what they’ve done.
With what the Tan Family mbers have done, they won’t likely ever get out even if they don’t die.
There’s no need to go the extra mile,” Lu Tianxing shook his head.
He reached into his pocket and was about to hand a cigarette to the Flamingo, then suddenly rembered sothing and withdrew his hand, “Almost forgot, you guys aren’t allowed to smoke.”
“It looks like you haven’t forgotten our rules, Brother Lu.
But it’s okay, slling the smoke isn’t bad,” the Flamingo replied, snatching the cigarette from Lu Tianxing’s hand and taking a deep sniff.
“I haven’t slled tobacco in a long ti.
Speaking of which, you don’t need to thank .
I don’t have the authority to have the military protect you.
You should really be thanking our old captain; he’s the one who helped this ti.”
“Old Captain, how has he been, has he been doing well these past few years?”
Lu Tianxing’s eyes lit up when he heard Flamingo’s words.
Of course, he knew exactly who Flamingo was talking about as the Old Captain.
Back when he and Flamingo had just joined the special forces, they were nothing but greenhorns who knew nothing.
It was the Old Captain who had led them through mission after mission, incessantly training and tornting them, transforming them from rookies into battle-hardened soldiers.
If it weren’t for the Old Captain’s hellish training, they might have been dead long ago.
“Old Captain sustained a light injury.
After you left, he led us on a mission and we ran into so trouble, nearly didn’t make it back.
The Old Captain’s arm was injured and he could no longer participate in combat, so he stepped down from the front line to beco a special instructor, specifically training newcors.
You should have seen those newbies, crying for their moms and dads every day.
By the end of a week, they’re almost shedding their skin, truly a living hell,” said Flamingo with a palpable chill in his voice, recalling the inhumane training that they had undergone when he and Lu Tianxing first beca special forces, a training that had nearly claid his life.
“Yeah, those rookies really are pitiful.
I just hope they can hang on.”
Lu Tianxing said reflectively.
If it hadn’t been for him acquiring the Creation Source Technique, he likely would not have been able to persist.
Twenty-four hours a day, with nearly twenty hours spent in training, the remaining four hours were haunted by the fear of a sudden call to assemble.
Only a madman or a lunatic could endure it.
“Yeah, we’re lucky to have gotten through it.
Alright, Brother Lu, it’s getting late, and I have to go back and report on this mission!
I won’t keep you any longer, I’m off.”
Flamingo walked over to Lu Tianxing, punched him heavily in the chest, then the two embraced before he turned to leave.
Just as he took a step away, Flamingo suddenly turned around, glanced at the tense Lin Qianru at the side, and said to Lu Tianxing, “Brother Lu, your wife is quite pretty.
You need to treat her well in the future, or else you won’t be able to find another.
After all, you were the ugliest one in our squad.
The fact that you found a wife is already a stroke of good fortune.
Rember to call to your wedding to drink your wedding toast.”
Lu Tianxing looked at Flamingo with a dark expression.
Was this guy trying to take a jab at him before leaving?
What do you an ‘the ugliest’?
Back then, it was only because his practice of the Creation Source Technique required the use of too much Spiritual Energy, which made him a bit thinner than the others—how could you call that ugly?
And besides, with the daily training under the scorching sun, who wouldn’t look rough and sunburnt?
“Hahaha, I ntion this, and you get a dark face.
Old Captain was right; you hate it the most when soone calls you ugly.
But truth be told, you were really ugly back then.
Alright, I’m off.
You’ll be staying around Hang City for a while, right?
I’ll have so ti off in a few days and I’ll co find you, and we can call over the Old Captain and have a good get-together with the brothers.”
Flamingo slapped Lu Tianxing’s shoulder hard and gestured for the others to take Tan Heng, Tan Ran, and the rest of the Tan Family onto the helicopter without lingering, then imdiately left the Tan Family compound.
Watching Flamingo leave, Lu Tianxing said nothing.
The bond between brothers didn’t need to be voiced; it was kept in the heart.
“Alright, everything’s resolved.
Uncle and Aunt, let’s head back!”
Lu Tianxing watched the helicopter depart, then turned to Lin Zhanpeng and the rest, a faint smile on his lips.
With Tan Ran and Tan Heng taken away by Flamingo, given what the Tan Family had done, their chances of survival were slim.
As for the other mbers of the Tan Family, they would probably spend the rest of their lives in prison.
From now on, the Hang City Tan Family would be no more.
“Yes, let’s go,” Lin Zhanpeng said, casting his gaze around and preparing to leave when a sycophantic voice ca from the crowd: “Big Brother, Big Brother, you’re finally fine.
I’m truly happy for you.
Big Brother, where are you heading now?
Do you want to co back to the Lin Family with ?
I believe that when the people at the Lin Family see you return, they will definitely be very happy.”
Hearing this voice, everyone turned to look, and saw Lin Anwu hastily stepping out from a corner, his face sporting an excited grin as if feeling genuine happiness for Lin Zhanpeng.
“Shaless.”
Those who knew the inside story cursed under their breath as they witnessed this scene.
He had just delivered the man to the Tan Family, and now that the Tan Family was destroyed, he shalessly approached to ingratiate himself—truly faceless.
Lin Zhanpeng said nothing, just looked indifferently at Lin Anwu.
Feeling Lin Zhanpeng’s icy gaze, Lin Anwu trembled, wanting to say sothing, but Lin Zhanpeng spoke first: “Lin Anwu, you needn’t worry about taking the Family Head position from the Lin Family after I leave.
I have no interest in the Lin Family’s leadership.
From the mont I left the Lin Family, I realized that true happiness isn’t in overwhelming power, but in days spent with a united family.”
“From now on, I have no ties to the Lin Family.
You don’t have to say anything.
I suspect that it’s not just you and the Tan Family involved in my being captured.
There must be quite a few from the Lin Family who agreed with this action, right?
Lin Anwu, let give you a word of advice: ‘spare soone when you can.’ To be too ruthless is to invite retribution.”
After speaking, Lin Zhanpeng no longer lingered and turned to head outside: “Qian Ru, Tianxing, let’s go.”
