Chapter 2020 - 1993: Lu Tianxing Appears
"Chen Kunchang, are you saying that Lu Tianxing once had contact with your corpse?" Just then, Tang Er suddenly spoke, with a hint of undeniable gravity in his expression.
"That’s right."
Although Chen Kunchang didn’t understand why Tang Er asked, he nodded.
"Mr. Tang Er, what’s the matter, have you discovered something?" Zhang Yue also looked at Tang Er and asked.
Tang Er took a deep breath and glanced at Chen Kunchang, saying, "If my feeling is correct, he has been planted with Soul Chasing Powder."
Soul Chasing Powder!
Upon hearing Tang Er’s words, Zhang Yue’s face instantly turned extremely grim. She didn’t doubt Tang Er’s words at all; Tang Er was an elite cultivated by the Tang Family to protect Tang Qingyun. She and Tang Qingyun were allied, so Tang Er had no reason to deceive her.
"This is bad!"
Zhang Yue seemed to remember something, her heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Chen Kunchang with a murderous intent, saying, "Tang Er, kill him. We need to leave here immediately."
Chen Kunchang being planted with Soul Chasing Powder indicates that he was tracked by Lu Tianxing and Sima Lingyun. Now, Chen Kunchang appears here, and if Sima Lingyun and Lu Tianxing show up, escaping would be impossible.
"Zhang Yue, how dare you...?"
Upon hearing Zhang Yue’s words, Chen Kunchang’s face twisted with malice, cursing angrily as he immediately backed away, moving like lightning towards the door. He had fought Tang Er once before and was no match for him, and Tang Er would definitely kill him.
"Tang Er, don’t let him escape, kill him."
Zhang Yue shouted again, her voice filled with intense murderous intent.
Tang Er nodded, said nothing, and quickly chased after Chen Kunchang.
But before Tang Er could chase him out the door, Chen Kunchang, who had just escaped, let out a terrified scream, "Third Young Master of Lu Family, why are you here?"
Upon hearing the scream, Zhang Yue’s heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly followed Tang Er’s figure and rushed outside, her gaze scanning towards the front yard.
At this moment, in the front yard, Lu Tianxing and Mandala’s figures had somehow appeared at the villa, standing atop a statue, overlooking Chen Kunchang. Both bore faint smiles on their faces, seeming to mock Chen Kunchang’s futility and ridicule his attempted escape.
Chen Kunchang’s face turned deathly pale upon seeing Lu Tianxing appear in the villa, shivers ran down his spine as he hadn’t anticipated being tracked by Lu Tianxing all the way here.
As Zhang Yue and Tang Er emerged from the villa, they looked at the distant figure of Lu Tianxing, their expressions turning extremely grave. They weren’t completely confident in dealing with Lu Tianxing; otherwise, they wouldn’t have plotted against him and would have removed him forcibly.
Especially now on Qin Island, where the famed Beiqiang Jiang Liufeng resided, once Cangwu, in the Late Stage of Mythical, made a move, their escape would be futile.
"So, it’s you who’ve been scheming against me all along. How does it feel to plot in the shadows? Delightful, isn’t it?" Upon seeing Zhang Yue and Tang Er emerge, Lu Tianxing slowly said.
Although Lu Tianxing’s tone was as calm as ever, anyone could tell the intense murder intent beneath his words.
After hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Zhang Yue took a deep breath, suppressing her fears, and said solemnly, "Chen Kunchang was deliberately let go by you."
"You tell me!"
Lu Tianxing looked at Zhang Yue, his tone indifferent, "A person who feigned death to escape Yanhuang Group for survival wouldn’t choose suicide so easily. The flaw in this sham is obvious, so of course, I had to take precautions. Even if he truly died, it would merely waste some Soul Chasing Powder."
"However, I must say, his cultivation technique is peculiar indeed—reversing True Qi, expelling most of his blood, yet still surviving. Truly an eye-opener."
Listening to Lu Tianxing’s words, Zhang Yue’s face darkened further, "In other words, you could have killed Chen Kunchang during his escape, yet you didn’t, intending to use him to find us?"
"Correct."
Lu Tianxing nodded, then slowly took out a cigarette and lit it, "It was easy for me to kill Chen Kunchang, but I kept him alive, knowing he would come to find you on Qin Island, as only you could save him. If not, he’d have no chance anywhere else, only a dead end. I let him live to lead you to me."
"My assumption proved correct; he came to you after escaping."
Lu Tianxing slowly exhaled a smoke ring and said, "Though I didn’t expect you to discover the Soul Chasing Powder on him so quickly and plan to kill him and flee, it doesn’t matter now. He’s served his purpose; his life doesn’t matter anymore."
Listening to Lu Tianxing’s words, Zhang Yue replied coldly, "Third Young Master of Lu Family, you truly are clever, but smart people often die quickly."
"Afraid I’ll disappoint you."
Lu Tianxing flicked the ash from his cigarette tip and said lightly, "Once, a fortune-teller told me I’d live to a ripe old age, and all my enemies would end up in Hell. You won’t be the first, nor the last."
"You’re overly confident."
"I’ve always been confident."
Lu Tianxing said calmly, "Now, can you tell me who you are? You plotted against me in Eagle Country; now again on Qin Island. Tell me your names, identities, who you’re working for, and I’ll leave you an intact corpse."
"Third Young Master of Lu Family, you sound a bit arrogant. Do you think you alone can handle us?" At that moment, Tang Er, standing beside Zhang Yue, spoke, his gaze fixed on Lu Tianxing with overwhelming murderous intent.
