Chapter 2285 - 2258: Tianlai Villa

"Zhiqing is not in the café; Tang Qingyun took her away."

In the car, Lu Tianxing explained to Lin Yafei while driving, addressing her earlier question.

"What?"

Lin Yafei’s expression changed instantly upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words: "Little man, what’s going on here?"

"Tang Qingyun must have learned about the events in Modu, or perhaps he had someone monitoring us that we didn’t notice. So when we left the Sky Dragon Club and headed to Chen Changwu’s villa, Tang Qingyun must have guessed, so he took Zhiqing away beforehand," Lu Tianxing said, looking at Lin Yafei.

"Are we going now?"

"Tianlai Villa."

Lu Tianxing looked at Lin Yafei, pressed the accelerator heavily, and the car’s engine roared like a beast, suddenly sprinting forward.

Meanwhile, inside villa number 95 at Tianlai Villa District.

Tang Qingyun sat on the sofa, leisurely sipping tea, his gaze falling on Bai Zhiqing sitting adjacent, curling a faint smile at the corners of his lips.

"Miss Bai, don’t look so glum. Don’t you think this is a great opportunity to test whether your man truly loves you?"

Tang Qingyun took a light sip of tea, looked at Bai Zhiqing, and said playfully, "Miss Bai, what are you thinking now? Is there anticipation, worry, or outright disdain? If your man doesn’t arrive within fifteen minutes, would you be heartbroken and think he doesn’t love you?"

"Stop fantasizing, my man will definitely kill you," Bai Zhiqing retorted through gritted teeth, glaring at Tang Qingyun.

"Oh, really?"

Tang Qingyun glanced at Bai Zhiqing and said calmly, "Then I eagerly await it. If your man dies, I’ll be merciful enough to bury you with him."

"Stop fantasizing, my man won’t die. The only one dying this time will be you, definitely you," Bai Zhiqing replied coldly after hearing Tang Qingyun’s words.

"Let’s wait and see, shall we?"

Tang Qingyun chuckled lightly, neither refuting Bai Zhiqing’s words nor speaking further, but leisurely continued sipping his tea.

Simultaneously, with Sima Lingyun’s help, Lu Tianxing navigated unhindered to the Tianlai Villa District.

Following a sharp brake and the permeating smell of burnt rubber, Lu Tianxing parked the car by the roadside, not far from villa number 95.

"Lin Demon, after I get out of the car, drive away and wait for my call," Lu Tianxing instructed Lin Yafei.

"Alright, be careful,"

Lin Yafei nodded heavily at Lu Tianxing, understanding why he wanted her to drive away immediately.

This place is Tang Qingyun’s territory. If Lu Tianxing leaves and Tang Qingyun makes a move against her, even with the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi by her side, they might not be able to protect him. The Tang Family’s poison is legendary, not merely boastful words. Although the Four Ghosts’ defense is formidable, they can’t counter poison.

Lu Tianxing held Lin Yafei suddenly, whispering in her ear, "Don’t worry, I’ll come back alive. Don’t worry about me."

With an affectionate peck on Lin Yafei’s lips, Lu Tianxing opened the car door and got out.

Watching Lu Tianxing’s retreating back as he walked forward, Lin Yafei softly pondered for a long while before unbuckling her seatbelt, crossing into the driver’s seat, then starting the car and swiftly disappearing into the night.

Villa number 95 at the Tianlai Villa District is undoubtedly one of the most luxurious and highest class residences. The number 95 symbolizes the Emperor’s position; residents here are undoubtedly affluent or noble.

The entire villa perfectly combines ancient architecture with modern design, majestic yet elegantly refined, exuding an imposing grandeur that overwhelms the viewer, leaving one feeling somewhat inferior.

Lu Tianxing glanced at the luxurious villa with its open doors not far away, his eyes flickering with cold killing intent. Without hesitation, he stepped forward heavily into the house.

Entering, there was a winding corridor, pebbled paths leading through the yard with pavilion buildings, making one feel as if they had stepped into ancient times, save for the towering modern structures nearby.

Lu Tianxing was immediately blocked by guards stationed outside by Tang Qingyun as he stepped through the entrance.

"Sir, this is no place for you," the leader of the men stood in front of Lu Tianxing, questioning him.

"What’s this? Is this how Tang Qingyun treats guests?" Lu Tianxing replied, his tone indifferent as his voice resonated sharply in the air.

"You’re Lu Tianxing?"

Upon hearing his name, the leader’s face changed drastically, as if recalling something.

As the saying goes, names are like their shadows; the leader was naturally well-aware of Lu Tianxing’s terrifying reputation—forcing a Late Stage of Mythical figure to flee disgracefully with his middle-stage mythic strength. Lu Tianxing is known for his ruthlessness, showing no mercy to enemies.

"Apologies, Mr. Lu. Our young master said if you wish to enter, you must take this pill," the leader of the men said, managing to suppress his shock, while showing Lu Tianxing a brown pill he retrieved from his pocket.

"You really want me to take it?"

Lu Tianxing squinted at the man.

Feeling Lu Tianxing’s cold gaze, the man trembled but forced himself to keep his composure, saying, "Mr. Lu, our young master mentioned that if you don’t comply, you’ll never see your wife in this lifetime."

"Is this a threat?"

Duan Feng laughed coldly, his voice turning icy, like the chill of winter: "Does Tang Qingyun truly think I’m easy to intimidate?"

With his words, Lu Tianxing unleashed a frightening killing intent that radiated outward from his body.

The men blocking Lu Tianxing shivered inwardly at the malevolent aura, involuntarily taking a step back as if electrically shocked.
