Although Jiang Liufeng said this, Bai Zhiqing and the others also knew that if Lu Tianxing encountered any danger in Japan, Jiang Liufeng would certainly take action immediately. Jiang Liufeng’s calmness now was enough to show that Lu Tianxing was fine, but even so, Bai Zhiqing and the others were filled with anxiety, constantly praying in their hearts for Lu Tianxing’s safety.

Compared to Bai Zhiqing and Lin Qianru’s worries, far away in Beijing, Lin Yafei and Rose were sitting on a sofa in the villa. Beside them was a woman exuding an aura of elegance and nobility, but with a particularly enchanting face. This woman was none other than Shen Manjun.

Since learning that Lu Tianxing had gone to Japan to destroy the Shankou Family, Shen Manjun’s thoughts had not settled, so she directly went to find Lin Yafei and Rose, hoping to hear some news about Lu Tianxing from them.

"Sect Leader Shen, did you come to us so late because you want to know about Tianxing?" Lin Yafei held a glass of red wine, took a gentle sip, looked at Shen Manjun, and straightforwardly asked.

"That’s correct."

Shen Manjun knew Lin Yafei and Rose were clever women, so she didn’t beat around the bush and admitted directly: "He’s my man, so of course, I want to know if he’s safe. It’s just that I don’t know if you’re willing to tell me, Yafei."

"Of course I can tell you. You’re his woman; knowing about his safety is certainly understandable."

Lin Yafei and Rose exchanged a glance, without feeling surprised. If Shen Manjun had no connection to Lu Tianxing, she wouldn’t have helped him multiple times.

"Actually, Tianxing hasn’t encountered any trouble in Japan. The Shankou Family has been destroyed, and he should be leaving Japan soon." Rose looked at Shen Manjun and slowly spoke.

"Will he return home?"

"I don’t know. He is facing many enemies now. Since he’s already out, he probably won’t come back so easily."

Rose shook her head and said: "Actually, Sister Manjun, you don’t need to worry. You know our man’s capabilities; you’ve never seen him fight a battle he’s not confident in. If he dared to leave China, he must have a way to return safely, so don’t worry."

Listening to Rose, Shen Manjun paused. Indeed, she had never seen Lu Tianxing fight a battle he wasn’t sure about. Even when Avril laid a trap for him in Beijing, intending to catch him once and for all, it still couldn’t affect Lu Tianxing, who eventually turned the tide, showing he isn’t reckless.

Taking a deep breath, Shen Manjun glanced at Rose and Lin Yafei, hesitated, then said: "I’ve heard that Qingtian Alliance has been suppressing you lately. I’m wondering if I have the qualifications to join forces with you to fight against the enemy."

Upon hearing Shen Manjun’s words, Lin Yafei and Rose were slightly stunned but then smiled and said: "Sister Manjun, if you want to join us, we welcome you with open arms. If you don’t mind, we’ll give you the position of Yama Palace’s Third Hall Master."

"I won’t decline this kind offer."

Shen Manjun did not hesitate and agreed directly, joining Yama Palace with the power of the Shen Family, making the exchange for the Third Hall Master position entirely justifiable. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Congratulations Sister Manjun for joining us."

Lin Yafei showed a slight smile, raised the wine glass on the coffee table, and toasted Shen Manjun.

Rose did the same.

Shen Manjun smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass in front of her, and raised it.

"Clink!"

The three wine glasses collided, producing a crisp sound.

The three of them simultaneously raised their glasses and drank the red wine, decisively.

After a glass of red wine, a radiant blush appeared on their cheeks, under the illumination of the light, looking exceptionally alluring, with their watery eyes particularly captivating, giving a sense of sparking the fire from deep within one’s heart with just one glance.

Unfortunately, there’s no one in the villa to notice this scene.

No one knows that inside this simple villa hall, the future Yama Palace’s Third Hall Master, who will frighten countless people, has officially joined Yama Palace.

...

Time continued fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, several days passed. In these four days, Tokyo underwent earth-shaking changes.

First, the Shankou Family was destroyed, and then the Dechuan Family forcefully merged the Shankou Family’s entire power, instantly becoming Tokyo’s number one family. With the support of a mysterious force, they eliminated several forces not weaker than Dechuan Family, but secretly provoking them, bringing a sudden peace to Tokyo.

Just when everyone assumed Tokyo had quieted down, another piece of news swept through Tokyo like autumn leaves, sparking much discussion among countless people.

This matter was the unexpected announcement of Dechuan Family’s Clan Leader, Dechuan Zhenye, to abdicate publicly, handing over the Clan Leader position to Dechuan Asaka, breaking the newfound peace in Tokyo like a thunder.

All the media eagerly reported Dechuan Asaka’s rise as the Dechuan Family’s Clan Leader, attracting many onlookers.

Knowing that in Japan, traditionally, men are superior to women, and women’s status is generally lower than men’s. However, at this moment, Dechuan Asaka, as a woman, climbed to the position of Dechuan Family’s Clan Leader, inevitably sparking surprise and shock.

Even if Dechuan Zhenye came out later to say that he was stepping down due to old age, wanting to enjoy a normal life and a role he gave to his only daughter, Dechuan Asaka, apart from ordinary people, not any forces believed this statement.

They knew Dechuan Zhenye well, a person willing to tolerate even his wife’s death for power and status wouldn’t abandon the Family Head position when at Dechuan Family’s peak. This is as unbelievable as the sun rising from the West, with no one believing it, thinking there must be something fishy, an inside story.

However, what exactly the inside story was remained unknown, with no one able to pry it out from Dechuan Zhenye himself, because since the abdication announcement, Dechuan Zhenye had left Japan to travel around the world, with no one finding his whereabouts anymore.
