757: Chapter 753 Common Enemy (Fifth Update) 757: Chapter 753 Common Enemy (Fifth Update) Hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Sima Lingyun’s gaze fluctuated for a mont before he spoke, “Miss Lin, are you so confident that the Wang Family won’t target you?
Since that’s the case, why do you want to control the Sky Dragon Gang?
What exactly are your plans?
This isn’t a typical approach to revenge.”
“There are no plans, I just want to have a pair of eyes in Beijing, besides, Group Leader Sima, don’t you think there’s a common enemy between the two of us?”
“A common enemy?”
Sima Lingyun’s brow furrowed slightly, only to relax imdiately, he smiled and said, “Miss Lin, you must be joking.
You are from Jin City, I am from Beijing.
Moreover, strictly speaking, today is the first ti we’ve t, how could we possibly share a common enemy?
Besides, I am the leader of the Yanhuang Group, who would dare to be my enemy.”
“Group Leader Sima, you underestimate , Lin Yafei.
Would I invite Third Young Master Han to ask you to co here without considering these matters?”
Lin Yafei gently sipped her tea, her gaze drifting towards the lake outside the window, slowly saying, “Heavenly God, Group Leader Sima, have you heard this na?”
“Miss Lin, how do you know of Heavenly God?”
Upon hearing these two words, Sima Lingyun’s expression turned sharp instantly, but he quickly regained his composure.
He almost forgot, Lin Yafei was one of Lu Tianxing’s won; knowing of Heavenly God’s existence was not a difficult feat.
“Group Leader Sima, not only do I know of Heavenly God, I also know that it’s highly likely Heavenly God is hiding right here in Beijing.
Even if he’s not here, there must be soone who is his subordinate in this city.
Although I have never t Heavenly God nor have I interacted with him, I have heard of his deeds.
He acts eccentrically and domineeringly, and is imnsely ambitious, a fact evident from his desire to obtain the Four Symbols Ring.
Group Leader Sima, what do you think will happen if there are those of Heavenly God within the Yanhuang Group?”
“That’s impossible.”
At Lin Yafei’s words, Sima Lingyun’s face changed drastically.
If what Lin Yafei described were to happen, the consequences would be unthinkable; once Heavenly God made his move, the Yanhuang Group might disintegrate from the inside, and by then, even he would be helpless should Heavenly God wish to act.
“Nothing is impossible.
When faced with sufficient benefits, anything is possible.
The Yanhuang Group, haha.
Group Leader Sima, no offense, but the current Yanhuang Group is the Yanhuang Group of the great families, not the Yanhuang Group of the common people, a point you are no doubt very aware of.
Are you certain those families aren’t controlled by Heavenly God?”
At Lin Yafei’s words, Sima Lingyun fell silent.
Lin Yafei was right; the Yanhuang Group was no longer the sa group that took up swords for China’s stability, slashing foreign invaders.
Back then, nurous martial artists followed one after another with the sole purpose of resisting foreign powers.
Even when facing certain defeat, they would draw their swords against their enemies, using their lives to stall the others.
That Yanhuang Group was the true Yanhuang Group, serving the country and the people.
But now, while there were martial artists truly serving the people within the Yanhuang Group, they were few; most were from great families and could never embody the selfless commitnt of their ancestors.
Sotis, for personal gains, they even committed cris, including murder—Duàn Rèn was the pri example.
Although he was the leader of the Yanhuang Group, there were things beyond his control.
Though called invincible in the Mythical Realm, there were still plenty that could kill them.
Lin Yafei sat beside him, leisurely sipping her tea with an expressionless face.
She believed Sima Lingyun knew how to choose.
After a while, Sima Lingyun spoke, “Miss Lin, since you want to cooperate with , why would you make a move against the Wang Family?
I’m curious about this point.
You want to eliminate the Wang Family, while my enemies are those prominent families.
It seems like there is no benefit for in cooperating with you.
Instead, it looks like I’ve beco a tool under your control.”
“Of course, there are benefits.”
Lin Yafei said with a smile, “Group Leader Sima, don’t you think the Wang Family’s history of developnt is a bit strange?”
“Strange.”
Sima Lingyun frowned.
Lin Yafei organized her thoughts before slowly saying, “Group Leader Sima, as far as I know, the Wang Family was at best a third-rate power in Beijing decades ago.
However, since Wang Anlong mysteriously disappeared for a week and then returned, the Wang Family’s power began to expand crazily.
In just a few decades, they went from a third-rate power to a top-tier family in Beijing, with nurous skilled martial artists.
Group Leader Sima, don’t you find it strange?
For a third-rate power to erge victorious among fierce competition and eventually dominate, do you believe there’s no foul play involved?”
“I don’t believe.”
Sima Lingyun shook his head.
He indeed did not believe it, because there were many prominent families and top-tier powers in Beijing.
The ergence of yet another top-tier force ant another person sharing the cake, which others definitely would not want to see.
He had seen too many forces trying to climb up, only to eventually et their doom.
Yet the Wang Family had leapt from a third-rate power to a top-tier family, which was indeed suspicious.
Previously, he didn’t think much of it, as there were many who stumbled upon great fortunes – the Wang Family was just another one.
But now that Lin Yafei ntioned it, he too found it strange.
The previous head of the Yanhuang Group had secretly investigated the Wang Family during their rise, as it was necessary in Beijing to monitor any rising force to prevent those with ulterior motives.
However, the Yanhuang Group’s investigation ca up empty in the end, only learning that Wang Anlong’s disappearance for a week was due to him accidentally entering an ancient tomb, getting trapped, and there obtaining a cultivation technique, which drastically improved his abilities.
Beyond that, the Yanhuang Group could not discover anything else.
Even the ancient tomb Wang Anlong had accidentally entered was thoroughly destroyed, leaving no trace, which made people assu it was destroyed by Wang Anlong out of fear of exposing his secret.
But on reflection, it indeed was filled with suspicious points, giving one a profoundly unsettling feeling.
“Group Leader Sima, you don’t believe it, and neither do I.
Therefore, I suspect that there must be other forces behind Wang Anlong, not just the good luck that outsiders talk about,” Lin Yafei said.
“Do you suspect this force might be Heavenly God?” Sima Lingyun asked sternly.
Lin Yafei shook her head and said, “I’m not sure.
Heavenly God is too mysterious and frighteningly so, with nurous skilled martial artists under his command.
He indeed has the capability to support the Wang Family, or perhaps it’s a force behind Heavenly God supporting the Wang Family.
Regardless of whether this conclusion is correct or not, I think it will not be of any disadvantage to you, Group Leader Sima….”
Continuing to update, one more to go!!!
