Chapter 1819: Chapter 1853: I Will Marry You!

Lin Zifeng was bound to settle the score with the Three Great Families sooner or later. Even if he didn’t go looking for trouble with them, chances were they’d take the initiative to come provoke South Heavenly Gate. Colluding with the Heavenly Punishment Alliance, then suppressing South Heavenly Gate. What a joke. The Three Great Families knew Lin Zifeng all too well. The idea that he wouldn’t retaliate was simply impossible.

Rather than suffer mental torment day after day, it was better to strike first and get rid of this malignant tumor!

However, the reason Lin Zifeng hadn’t made a move against the Three Great Families these past few days was precisely to grind away their patience. More importantly, to throw them into panic—that was what he really wanted. As long as all three Families were panicking, he could take them down one by one when the time came!

"It’s absolutely true! I’ve already had people check it over and over again. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be absolutely true!" Yu nodded emphatically, her gaze serious.

"Good, I happen to be free tonight with nothing to do. Since the Three Great Families are all set, what reason do I have to refuse?" Lin Zifeng smiled, that face breaking into a charming grin.

"If there’s nothing else for me, I’ll take my leave first." Yu turned to go.

"Wait a second!"

Lin Zifeng suddenly called out to stop her.

Yu snapped her head back, her delicate body giving a light tremble.

"You’ve worked hard during this period. Without you, my South Heavenly Gate couldn’t possibly have gathered so much intel. But I promise you, once South Heavenly Gate unifies Yanjing, whatever you want to do then, I won’t stand in your way." Lin Zifeng walked up to her.

Come to think of it, he really hadn’t been very fair to Yu. He made her shoulder the role of Shadow all by herself, yet only a tiny handful of people knew who Yu really was.

Watching one woman after another slowly gather around Lin Zifeng, how could Yu not also wish to blend into that circle? 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

But for now, in her eyes, that was too extravagant. Too much of a longing, yet unattainable. People like her also had their own self-awareness. People who were never meant to be together could never actually end up together. Everything was already decided.

"No need. My duty is to help South Heavenly Gate. This is the path I chose back then. Since I’ve already chosen it, what right do I have to complain about hardship?" Yu slowly raised her head. Those dark eyes of hers, aside from sincerity, had almost no impurity at all, none of that scheming and treachery you see in people out in society.

Yu was a very simple girl, raised in the Dragon Team from a young age. If it weren’t for Lin Zifeng, she’d never have betrayed the Dragon Team, only to end up with a role that couldn’t see the light of day...

"Yu’er, thank you. I’m really grateful to you. Without you, South Heavenly Gate wouldn’t have grown to where it is today." Lin Zifeng had wanted to say this to Yu long ago, but he’d never had the chance.

"Young Master Lin, I’ve already said it. This is just my duty. Since I chose it, no matter how bitter or exhausting it gets, I’ll crawl to the end on my knees if I have to. Alright. I’ve already reported tonight’s matter of the Three Families alliance to you. How to handle it—that’s your business. I’ll be going now." With that, Yu turned to leave.

"Hold on!"

Lin Zifeng stepped forward and grabbed her small hand.

"Young Master Lin! If someone sees this, it won’t look good." Yu’s brows knit slightly, that pretty face of hers suddenly tense with nervousness.

"Heh, if they see, they see. It’s not like I haven’t held your hand before." Lin Zifeng said shamelessly with a faint grin.

This only made Yu even more embarrassed, especially under that sharp, domineering gaze of his. Her head hung so low she didn’t dare look him in the eye.

"W-what’s with him today? Why is he talking to me like this? Could it be..." Yu lowered her head further and further, until in the end her chin was practically buried in her own chest, not daring to look up at him.

"Hahaha... Yu, thank you. If I, Lin Zifeng, manage to live to thirty, no matter how big the obstacles, I’ll still marry you and make you my wife!"

"You’re awful!" Yu suddenly smacked him hard a few times, her pretty face instantly flushing crimson with shyness. She bolted into the pitch-black night, her figure vanishing in a flash.

Watching her retreating silhouette, Lin Zifeng’s laughter grew even louder and more exaggerated...

"I’m not joking with you. If I live to thirty, don’t worry, I’ll definitely marry you!"

......

Ten thirty at night—inside the Shangguan residence of the Shangguan Family in Yanjing... a large number of recently-out-of-seclusion Elders were gathered there, along with all the experts of the Ouyang Family and the Nolan Family. What they were discussing now was a major event—how to wipe out South Heavenly Gate. No! To be precise, how to kill Lin Zifeng!

For several days straight, life hadn’t been easy for the Three Great Families. As long as Lin Zifeng was alive, to them he was like a ticking time bomb. No one knew when that bomb would go off.

But now Lin Zifeng had taken Big Handsome and Little Bear and, under cover of the dark night, arrived at the Shangguan residence!

The appearance of two top-tier Pure-blooded Titans—one punch and the main gate of the Shangguan residence was blasted to smithereens! Then they swaggered in with Lin Zifeng, barging straight into the Shangguan estate!

"Shangguan Chong! Tonight, your granddaddy is here to take your dog life! If you know what’s good for you, hurry up and wipe your neck clean. When I come over and give it a few scratches, we’ll call this whole thing even!"

Big Handsome marched in through the front gate with Little Bear at his side.

This guy’s eyes were as cold as ice. He opened his maw and let out a thunderous roar, and in an instant the entire Shangguan residence echoed with his howls!

"Rooaaar..." With Little Bear joining in, their combined bellow actually shook the massive Shangguan estate so hard it trembled!

This sudden nighttime assault on the Shangguan residence left Shangguan Chong, who’d been on edge for days, completely caught off guard, without even the slightest psychological preparation.

"Crap! That brat surnamed Lin is already here!!! He’s already here!"

In the back garden of the Shangguan residence, when Shangguan Chong heard the commotion, he slipped right off the stone bench onto his ass. His eyes were full of terror, his face drained of color, his mind going completely blank as he panicked, not knowing how to respond.

"H-he’s back? H-he’s back?" Ouyang Tian stammered, his upper lip and lower lip trembling uncontrollably.

"Heaven does not fail us! Since he dares come to our door of his own accord, then it’s him and us, to the death!"

Swish!

With a sudden motion, the Nolan Emperor shot up from the stone chair. His father’s death had been an unshakable nightmare in his mind. Now the nightmare was about to be dispelled.

No matter what, he had to personally cut down his enemy!

"Everyone, don’t panic!" A senior powerhouse of the Shangguan Family stepped forward.

The moment this man appeared, the tense atmosphere in the courtyard immediately settled down.

"Elder Demon Moon! Y-you’ve come out of seclusion!"

Shangguan Chong froze for a second, then stepped up and recognized the Elder at a glance. Elder Demon Moon had already made a name for himself more than ten years ago. Later, because his cultivation hit a bottleneck, he went into seclusion, and that closed-door cultivation lasted over a decade. Up until now, the people of the Shangguan Family had all assumed this Elder Demon Moon was already dead.

"My god! I never thought Elder Demon Moon would actually appear at a time like this! Heaven truly favors us!"

"That’s right! With even Elder Demon Moon here, this time we’re saved."

"So lively—this old man can’t just sit this one out!" At that moment, another wave of energy ripples surged out from deep within the Shangguan compound. Whoosh! A streak of Divine Light descended—yet another powerhouse of the Shangguan Family, one who had been in seclusion for many years!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..." Deep within the Shangguan Family, experts were as numerous as clouds. Before and after, seven or eight formidable cultivators emerged one after another! These eight Elders had all been overlord-level figures from more than ten, even several dozen years ago!

(Brothers and sisters, the fourth Chapter is already up. You don’t need to stay up waiting tonight—lots of people keep waiting because I don’t say anything, really sorry about that. Begging for some Monthly tickets! Some rewards... Once these few days of plot wrap up, Lin Zifeng’s road of conquest is going to get more and more awesome, more and more blood-boiling! Let’s unleash some world-covering dominance together!)
