Capítulo 720: Chapter 720: The Deng Family in Trouble
Sima Qing looked at Duan Xing and said, “Continue.”
Duan Xing replied, “Yes, Senior Sima.”
Then, Duan Xing calmly revealed his plan: “Everyone knows that Chen Wuyue has soldiers, military power, and the entire Chen family is in the base.”
“It’s not easy for us to act against Chen Wuyue, and even if we were to break into the base and kill Chen Wuyue, his status in the military would alarm the highest levels of Huaxia. If the highest levels were to be angered, they could mobilize the Martial Saint, and then we’d be in serious trouble.”
All the martial arts experts, upon hearing Duan Xing’s words, nodded with solemn expressions.
In the Martial Arts World, there are rules; one must never be an enemy of the highest levels, as it would be self-destructive, especially since the highest levels have the nation’s Martial Saint.
Once the highest levels are angered and the nation’s Martial Saint is mobilized, all the martial arts experts here, whether from a Martial Arts Family or a renowned master, would be wiped out.
Therefore, the national base must never be provoked, or it’s a death wish.
“Chen Wuyue is a top general of the nation, stationed at the base, truly untouchable. Duan Xing, do you have any thod to lure him out of the base?” Sima Qing’s white eyebrows were slightly furrowed, looking at Duan Xing with doubt.
Duan Xing said, “Senior Sima, you should know that among the Six Great Families in the Capital City, the Chen, Deng, and Liu families are on good terms. Chen Wuyue’s daughter even married the son of Deng Fangzhen. If we make a move against the Deng and Liu families, the Chen family will not stand by. Once Chen Wuyue leaves the base, we can join forces to control him.”
“Then we will lure Lin Zheng’s disciple Lin Fei, and once we capture Lin Fei, we can obtain the Martial Saint Heart Sutra from Lin Zheng’s hands.”
After Duan Xing finished speaking, all the martial arts experts in the great hall nodded in agreent, feeling that Duan Xing’s thod was feasible.
Sima Qing and the other three of the Capital City’s Four Oddities exchanged a look, and from the expressions in their eyes, it was clear they had no objections to Duan Xing’s plan.
“Hmm, Duan Xing, let’s proceed as you said. Although doing so will still involve Chen Wuyue, as long as we capture Lin Fei and then release Chen Wuyue, it shouldn’t anger the highest levels,” Sima Qing said to Duan Xing.
“Then let’s discuss the specific plan to attack the Liu and Deng families,” Duan Xing said as he looked at all the martial arts experts.
That night, within the Forbidden City’s palace, Duan Xing, the Capital City’s Four Oddities, various martial arts families, nurous famous experts, and young talents secretly conspired on how to deal with the Deng and Liu families, how to deal with Chen Wuyue, and how to capture Lin Fei, etc.
The next morning, at the base.
Lin Fei walked out of the apartnt, only to see Li Guang in military uniform standing outside the apartnt building.
In the past, Li Guang was always expressionless before Lin Fei, with the unique cold seriousness of a soldier.
But today, when he saw Lin Fei, there was a trace of respect in his eyes. This was because last night in the forest outside the capital, Lin Fei had fought against four, defeating the Hidden Kill’s Four Emperors and dealing with dozens of the Hidden Kill assassins.
This had made Li Guang witness Lin Fei’s true strength.
If anything could make this Dragon Thorn Captain feel respect, it would be soone with strength, especially soone stronger than him.
And Lin Fei was such a person.
Li Guang greeted Lin Fei proactively: “Good morning, Young Master Lin.”
Lin Fei said, “Li Guang, just call Lin Fei! Calling Young Master Lin every day feels awkward.”
Li Guang was montarily taken aback, calling Lin Fei Young Master Lin wasn’t his preference; it was because he saw that Chief Chen Wuyue was very courteous to Lin Fei from the start, so he called him Young Master Lin.
“Alright, then I’ll just call you Lin Fei from now on.” Li Guang, being a soldier, wasn’t one to fuss, and imdiately changed his greeting.
Lin Fei nodded in satisfaction.
Then, not seeing the jeep, Lin Fei couldn’t help but ask Li Guang, “Li Guang, why didn’t you drive over? Did you forget I have to go to school today?”
Li Guang’s expression suddenly turned serious, and he said, “Lin Fei, the chief has ordered to protect you. These days, you can’t leave the base to avoid retaliation from Duan Xing.”
Lin Fei knew that Chen Wuyue must be aware of what he did at the Duan family last night and was concerned about his safety.
Lin Fei looked at Li Guang and said, “You said you want to protect . Is your martial arts better than mine?”
If he had said this before, Li Guang would have been furious, but now he wasn’t angry at all. Instead, he calmly replied, “My martial arts are not better than yours, but the chief’s order must be executed.”
Lin Fei shook his head helplessly: “Alright, protect if you want. I’m just curious; Duan Tianlong is dead, Duan Yifeng has been crippled, and the Hidden Kill Four Emperors are dead or surrendered. How can the Duan family retaliate against ?”
Li Guang said, “Though the Duan family suffered heavy losses, the strongest person in the Duan family, Master Duan Duan Xing, is still alive, and the power of Hidden Kill hasn’t been eradicated. They still secretly lurk in the Capital City, waiting to seek revenge against you.”
Lin Fei thought about how he had killed his way into the Duan family last night and didn’t find Duan Xing. He didn’t know how strong this Duan Xing was or what thods he would use to retaliate.
Of course, he was not afraid of Duan Xing’s retaliation.
He just worried that Duan Xing would retaliate against his classmates and friends.
“Li Guang, do you know what kind of strength Duan Xing has?” Lin Fei couldn’t help but ask Li Guang.
Li Guang pondered for a mont, then said, “Duan Xing is the top among the Capital City’s Top Ten Experts, his strength is unknown, but it is said that more than a decade ago, he had already reached the seventh level of the Martial Emperor.”
Although there are those in the Capital City with strength surpassing the Top Ten Experts, Duan Xing’s strength is still formidable. Even among the Capital City’s Top Ten, I’m only ranked fifth, far from comparable to him.”
“Hmm, the top of the Capital City’s Top Ten Experts, it seems I cannot be careless!” Lin Fei said thoughtfully.
Then, he said to Li Guang, “For now, I won’t go to school, but I’m worried that Duan Xing might use the sa old tricks against my classmates and friends. Could you temporarily place my classmates and friends at the base to prevent any incidents?”
Li Guang said, “Lin Fei, I forgot to tell you last night. Because your classmates and friends were injured, I brought them back to the base hospital for treatnt. They’re at the base now; Duan Xing can’t use them against you.”
Lin Fei smiled and patted Li Guang’s shoulder, saying, “Good job, Li Guang. Co, take to see them.”
Although Lin Fei had considered having Li Guang bring Deng Ziyu and Liu Wei to the base as well, he thought that both the Deng and Liu families were prominent families with their own powerful forces, and it wouldn’t be easy for Duan Xing to deal with them.
So he didn’t ntion it.
However, Lin Fei didn’t know that this thought led to the Deng and Liu families paying a heavy price later, and he felt guilty about it.
Li Guang agreed and led Lin Fei towards the base hospital.
Night fell again, and the Deng family’s villa estate was as quiet as usual. Under the lights, guards could be seen patrolling the estate.
Suddenly, a group of n in black, like phantoms from hell, used the cover of night to fly into the estate.
As soon as they landed in the estate, these n in black drew their sharp blades and launched lightning-like attacks on the unsuspecting Deng family’s guards.
The guards couldn’t even issue a warning before their throats were slit by the sharp blades of the n in black, their voices reduced to gurgling noises.
The night in the Deng family estate was instantly drenched in blood, with one guard after another falling in pools of blood, turning the Deng family into a living hell.
