Binzhou, Yun Fei's residence.
"Sister-in-law, are you okay? Seeing you safe and sound, I can finally relax. This is all my fault. If sothing had happened to you, I would never have the face to see Brother Fan again!" Peng Ming sighed.
"It has nothing to do with you, I was just careless, don't bla yourself!" Xiao Chubing said with a comforting smile.
At that mont, Yun Fei appeared from upstairs.
"Chu Bing, how are you? These past few days we've been so worried about you. Did the Murong Family give you a hard ti?" Yun Fei said with concern.
Ling Fan glanced at Yun Fei, her hair up in a high bun, wearing a knee-length, rose-red dress that set off her fair, lustrous skin, exuding a different kind of beauty. Compared to when he'd left, she looked so much better!
Xiao Chubing smiled radiantly, "I'm fine, fortunately, Ling Fan arrived in ti. I heard you were also seriously injured, how are you recovering?"
"I'm no longer in any serious condition!" Yun Fei smiled, stepping closer to Xiao Chubing.
Ling Fan looked at the two standing together, their beauty in competition, and felt deeply moved. They needed to grow on their own now. After this ordeal, he felt even more the burden of too many ties, adding pressure to himself!
Peng Ming, watching the two sister-in-laws get along so harmoniously, was filled with mixed feelings, wondering just how on earth Brother Fan managed it, feeling envious and resentful!
"Sort out the company matters as soon as possible and prepare to head to Zhongnan. Where's Yao Yue? Why don't I see anyone else?" Ling Fan looked around and asked.
"Oh, An Xiyao went back to check on her hotown with her sister. Those two were raised single-handedly by their aunt. Yao Yue plans to take them to the Martial Arts World. Their futures are uncertain, so they went back to visit and leave behind so wealth, resolving any lingering concerns.
Yao Yue took them back, so she should return soon," Yun Fei explained.
Ling Fan nodded and grunted in response, "Did the Long Family leave any word?"
"Nothing. After they took Feng Shuya, the driver woke up and found only this," Peng Ming said as he handed over a piece of paper.
Ling Fan took the note and saw a line of typewritten characters, a ti and place set, with the Long Family's signature.
"Find a way to contact the Long Family and inform them that Feng Shuya had better be unhard, or I will wipe out their entire family!" Ling Fan said in a chilling tone.
"Brother Fan, I'll handle this!" Peng Ming, standing on the side, suddenly clenched his fists in readiness, eager for the chance to talk tough.
Xiangjiang, the Tang Family!
A fashionable, long-haired beauty stood before Tang Hongyi, her face dark with anger, "Father, is my brother's matter to be left unresolved just like that?"
Tang Hongyi's expressionless face turned to look at his daughter, Tang Anqi, who had just returned from the Snow Country with a frosty deanor.
After a long mont of silence, he sighed, "What else can we do? The murderer behind your brother's death is well-connected. My bounties in the Underworld have been useless. What solution do we have?
All I hope now is that the kid doesn't co looking for trouble with the Tang Family!"
The gorgeous woman remained silent. She and her brother, Tian Cheng, had always been very close. She rushed back as soon as she heard the terrible news, only to miss seeing her brother for one last ti!
"Father, you're old. Let take care of this matter," Tang Anqi spoke up softly.
"An Qi, I understand how you feel, I hate this no less than you do, but we can't act rashly. The Tang Family can't afford to lose.
To be prepared just in case, in fear of that kid seeking revenge, I've already made arrangents to et with Grandmaster Yong Xinghua. He will intervene in tis of danger," Tang Hongyi said.
He too was struggling with the pain. If there was a chance, who wouldn't want revenge?
"Father, have you ever heard of the Martial Alliance?" Tang Anqi asked indifferently.
"Hmm? Are you talking about the Martial Arts Alliance? Do you know soone from the Martial Alliance?" Tang Hongyi muttered and then his face suddenly turned to shock.
The Martial Alliance is the Martial Arts Federation organized by martial artists from various countries. In a duchy, aside from the military forces, it's the strongest existence!
Even in so smaller countries, the status of the Martial Alliance is exceptional, far exceeding that of the usual ard forces.
Tang Anqi nodded slightly, her tone carrying a hint of pride, "When I was expanding our family business in Snow Country, I t my current boyfriend, Takako Junta. He is from the Snow Country Martial Alliance, and he has trendous influence!"
Tang Hongyi took a deep breath, never expecting that his daughter would know such a powerful figure.
"Anqi, it's not that I don't want to take revenge. The Tang Family suffered heavy losses previously, and we cannot act rashly. If you're sure about this, I won't object!" Tang Hongyi said thoughtfully.
Tang Anqi nodded, "My boyfriend Takako-kun and I have co back together this ti. We discussed this before coming back, and he has agreed to help. When necessary, he will deploy the power of the Martial Alliance!"
Tang Hongyi let out a sigh of relief, a glimr of hope shining in his eyes, "In that case, it's not impossible to discuss!"
"Dad, we have Master Yong Xinghua in Xiangjiang, and with the support of the Snow Country Martial Alliance behind us, there's no reason not to take revenge. Even if that kid has a lot of skills, can he still ascend to heaven?" Tang Anqi spoke up.
Tang Hongyi nodded, "Okay, please invite your boyfriend in. Let's discuss the specific action details!"
By this ti, the news of Ling Fan hanging the Dragon Gate Grandmaster, Yin Tianzu, had not yet spread to Xiangjiang. Otherwise, Tang Hongyi might have hesitated!
...
The day of the appointnt arrived in the blink of an eye. In the Imperial Capital, the storm was brewing as news about the Long Family closing off Phoenix Perch Mountain had been boiling over in the circles two days prior.
Early in the morning, all mbers of the Long Family had gathered in the main hall.
The patriarch of the Long Family, Long Xian, sat at the head seat, his spirit fierce, his gaze sharp.
"Everything's been arranged with the Five Peaks, right? When will they arrive?" Long Xian asked Long Zhengye indifferently.
"Father, everything is in place. The Gu Family has promised to send soone on ti today!" Long Zhengye confidently declared.
Long Tianjun stood beside his father, his eyes revealing a trace of malignancy. The scene of Ling Fan insulting him to his face at the Feng Family while holding Feng Shuya lingered in his mory, and he had long wanted to flay and dismber that youngster!
The Second Elder of the Long Family, Long Pengju, and his son Long Xiao stood by, keeping silent. The idea of both generations of father and son of the Long Family being cuckolded by the Ling Family brought an uncontrollable sneer to their minds!
Long Yun, the third elder of the Long Family, and his wife Li Huan stood at the back, looking sowhat unnatural, particularly Li Huan. The affair with Su Wei back then could be said to be her ddling gone wrong!
Originally, she and Su Wei were good friends. It was a well-intended comnt that went awry, leading to this outco. Although it was an inadvertent mistake, she had sown the seeds of the grudges that haunted these years. Ever since Su Wei's death, she had set up a Buddhist shrine at ho, seeking to atone for her sins.
It was Long Tianyu, standing to one side, who remained quiet with a sneer in the depths of his eyes. After enduring humiliation for many years, this chance might completely change his life.
The key mbers of the Leng family also gathered together, and they too had called upon the support of their backer.
"Let's go, to Phoenix Perch Mountain!" Leng Liangce, leaning on his cane, stood up and addressed everyone with a simple command.
The entire Capital Circle was roiling. Although Phoenix Perch Mountain was closed off, it was crowded with people. By now, only those of distinguished status could enter Phoenix Perch Mountain.
Many were aware that the Long Family was not only settling a two-decade-old vendetta, but also dealing with Ling Fan, the Young Master Ling, who had recently risen to prominence after beating Dragon Gate Grandmaster Yin Tianzu.
