At that ti, the bodies of Tang Chuan and Tang Wu were transported back to the Tang Family’s estate.
Looking at the two corpses, Elder Tang was utterly enraged. Although Tang Chuan wasn’t his favorite grandson, he was an important link to Tang Yu, the King of Hidden Weapons. To just die like that? And Tang Wu... he was a First-Rank Overlord! Even for the Tang Family, a First-Rank Overlord at the Great Achievent stage is extrely rare, yet he was murdered just like that. This is intolerable!
"Father, you must avenge my son!" Tang Wenqiang knelt on the ground, crying out.
"Who did it?" Elder Tang’s face was grim.
"Yang Qi!" Tang Wenqiang exclaid. "It’s the sa Yang Qi who killed Tang Fei and crippled ! The score from Three Prefectures Town hasn’t been settled, and now he’s added a new grudge to the list!"
"That Yang Qi... how could he possess such ability?" Elder Tang furrowed his brow. Previously, he had found it unlikely when Tang Wenqiang claid Yang Qi had slaughtered Wu Yonggui. Now, he suddenly felt that he had underestimated the young man.
"Father, are you afraid?" Tang Wenqiang asked.
"Hmph, afraid?" Elder Tang said coldly. "He is but a re Yang Qi, a First-Rank Overlord at his Peak at most. Do you think my Tang Family of Sea City would be afraid of him? Pass on my orders! Increase the bounty by ten billion, dead or alive. Also, inform those people in Thunder City that the Tang Family of Sea City will be paying them a visit to exterminate Yang Qi!"
The news spread quickly. The Tang Family’s declaration, in particular, beca common knowledge throughout Sea City and Jiangnan Prefecture. For a ti, the na Yang Qi was on everyone’s lips in both Sea City and Jingnan Prefecture.
In a room sowhere, Uncle Jian took out his phone to video chat with Lin Qingxuan.
"Miss, your little sweetheart has really stirred up a hornet’s nest in Sea City this ti," Uncle Jian sighed. "Not only did he cause a huge commotion in Jingnan Prefecture, but now he’s provoked the Tang Family. The Tang Family is no ordinary clan. I’m afraid your sweetheart is in for a tough ti."
"What Realm is he in now?" Lin Qingxuan asked.
"It’s unclear," Uncle Jian said, shaking his head. "I was there when he killed Tang Wu. Judging by his Realm, he should be a First-Rank Overlord. However, he defeated Tang Wu, a First-Rank Overlord at the Great Achievent stage, with ease. So, it’s hard to say what this kid’s actual Realm is."
"What? A First-Rank Overlord? He’s already a First-Rank Overlord?" Lin Qingxuan was shocked. "I thought my own cultivation speed was quite fast, especially since I’m enjoying the resources of the Heavenly God Sect. How could he possibly be faster than ? He really is worthy of being my husband."
Uncle Jian couldn’t help but laugh. "Miss, aren’t you embarrassed? You’re not even married yet and you’re already calling him your husband?"
"Hmph, it’s none of your business. He is my husband, and I’ll be his woman sooner or later," Lin Qingxuan pouted. "That ’Son of God’ or whatever is so annoying. I really dislike his high-and-mighty attitude."
"Alright, I have to go. I need to keep watching the show," Uncle Jian said with a smile. "The kid is planning to make a move on the King of Jingnan’s people in Thunder City next. He’s as skilled as he is bold. Perhaps this ti, I’ll find out what his true combat power is."
"Keep in touch. I now have the opportunity to go out on missions for training, so I have a little ti each day. Tell more about him," Lin Qingxuan said before ending the video call.
「White Mountain Manor.」
Yang Qi’s eting was drawing to a close. "In short, that’s the gist of it. Ye Feng, you will issue a challenge in the na of the Star Shining Society. The Jingnan Royal Mansion, the Wang Family, the Yan Family, the Wind Control Sect, the Seven Swords Sect, and the Black Wolf Sect must all be included."
"But Boss, if we do that, the Star Shining Society will beco a target for everyone. Are we really going to face all of them at the sa ti?" Ye Feng asked, worried.
"Yes, we’ll beco a target for everyone. But at the sa ti, if the challenge succeeds, the Star Shining Society will beco famous overnight. More people will want to join, and you’ll be able to get things operating normally much faster," Yang Qi explained.
"But if we do that, they’ll definitely team up, right?" Lei Qingtian asked worriedly.
"I want them to join forces," Yang Qi laughed. "If they don’t, I’ll force them to. Otherwise, how am I supposed to wipe them all out in one fell swoop? Just do it. My ti is very precious!"
Helpless, Ye Feng could only agree to carry out the order. He trusted Yang Qi’s judgnt.
Soon, two news items simultaneously beca the hottest topics in Jingnan Prefecture.
First: The Tang Family of Sea City announced they would soon co to Thunder City to eradicate Yang Qi and destroy the Zhao Family.
Second: An organization called the Star Shining Society had suddenly issued a challenge to major powers like the Jingnan Royal Mansion, intending to unify the Jianghu of Thunder City.
Both stories sparked intense discussion. Everyone in Jingnan Prefecture now knew that Yang Qi’s father was Yang Qingshan, the owner of Qifei Group. They all wondered if Yang Qingshan would intervene this ti. If he didn’t, Yang Qi was surely dood, and the Zhao Family would be annihilated.
The Star Shining Society was a mystery. It was said to be newly established, and its only known mber was Vice President Ye Feng, who was also the President of the Jingnan Prefecture Martial Arts Association. No one knew who the President was. Had such an organization gone mad, suddenly provoking six major powers?
No one could figure it out, so they didn’t bother trying. Besides, the six major powers had already begun to act.
The sentint was imdiate. "The Star Shining Society dares to provoke us? Obliterate them! Who cares if they have Ye Feng?" "Exactly! We will not be slandered by anyone! No one!" "We need to join forces!" At once, the Wang Family, the Yan Family, the Wind Control Sect, and the Seven Swords Sect ford an alliance.
Only the powerful Black Wolf Sect and the Jingnan Royal Mansion chose to face the matter independently. In their eyes, the threat of the Star Shining Society was negligible.
"Since the Black Wolf Gang isn’t joining the others, let’s give them a little push. Yingying, Wolf King, we’re going to the Black Wolf Hotel!" Yang Qi sneered. The Black Wolf Sect has to join the alliance. I need to show them that they can’t handle the Star Shining Society on their own.
The Black Wolf Hotel was a five-star hotel in Thunder City owned by the Black Wolf Sect.
Yang Qi arrived at the hotel with the Wolf King and Lei Yingying, heading directly to the restaurant on the second floor. There were quite a few guests, and the atmosphere was indeed very pleasant. The patrons who could afford to dine here had a net worth of at least ten million, making it a high-class establishnt.
On the first floor, a pianist was playing. He was presumably a hired professional of considerable skill. Even those who knew nothing about piano could feel a sense of pleasure that whetted their appetite.
The three of them took a seat in the second-floor restaurant. There were several private rooms nearby, with dedicated waiters bustling back and forth. Yang Qi ordered a few dishes and a bottle of red wine. He wasn’t particularly fond of the taste, but with a lady like Lei Yingying present, red wine seed more appropriate.
While waiting for their food and wine, they could hear people whispering throughout the restaurant. Though the voices were low, Yang Qi’s hearing was sharp enough to catch every word. After all, anything spoken aloud in a public place wasn’t much of a secret, and real secrets wouldn’t be discussed here anyway.
The topics of conversation all revolved around the two recent hot-button issues. It was clear that Yang Qi had truly given them sothing to talk about.
