Chapter 2381 - 2354: The Slaughter Continues

As the Divine Gun Guards had just taken care of the five individuals, they respectfully addressed the woman approaching, saying, "Miss Shen, everyone has been dealt with. You may proceed inside! Leave this matter to us; nothing unexpected will occur."

The woman was none other than Shen Manjun, who had rushed out from the research institute upon hearing that Lu Tianxing was heading to the Mu Family, and hurried to Bai Zhiqing’s villa.

Although the Shen Family couldn’t overtly intervene in the clash between Lu Tianxing and the Tang Family, they were more than capable of protecting Bai Zhiqing from the shadows.

After hearing the Divine Gun Guards’ words, Shen Manjun spoke to the leader, "Qiang Yi, I’m fine. You don’t need to worry about me. Just keep an eye on the surroundings; they must be prepared this time. These few people are likely just scouts sent by them. The real attack is yet to come."

"Everyone, stay fully alert and on guard. If anyone disobeys, kill without mercy."

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison, their eyes flashing with icy murderous intent.

They were all trained by Jiang Liufeng, and Lu Tianxing was his grandson-in-law, while Bai Zhiqing was his granddaughter-in-law. They were determined to protect Bai Zhiqing at all costs, even if it meant risking their lives.

Shen Manjun nodded, speaking in a deep voice, "Remember, do not be complacent. Also, don’t fight hard needlessly; the moment there’s something amiss, retreat immediately. Absolutely don’t engage in battles that lead to pointless sacrifices, understand?"

"Understood."

After hearing those words, Shen Manjun took a deep breath, slowly lifted her head, and swept her sharp gaze around. Her enchanting and delicate face bore a hint of bloodlust. Lu Tianxing was her man, Bai Zhiqing was not only his legitimate wife but also her sister. Anyone daring to make a move here wouldn’t be spared by her hand.

"Miss Shen."

The leader of the Divine Gun Guards, Qiang Yi, looked at Shen Manjun and asked, "Miss Shen, should we inform the Young Master about this situation?"

Upon hearing this, a trace of contemplation crossed Shen Manjun’s delicate face.

Eventually, Shen Manjun exhaled deeply, shook her head, and said, "Forget it, let’s not inform Tianxing for now. He’s currently at the Mu Family, surrounded by dangers, and can’t afford any sloppiness or relaxation. Let’s not mention this to him for now; we only need to guard the villa."

Lu Tianxing’s upcoming ordeal at the Mu Family was terrifyingly dangerous, making it impossible for him to relax even for a moment. Any lapse might mean he couldn’t make it out of the Mu Family successfully.

Right now, Lu Tianxing must focus completely on dealing with Tang Qingyun and Yang Anlong, and maintain high alertness. And also, the forces targeting Bai Zhiqing this time undoubtedly belonged to other factions within China, seizing the moment of Lu Tianxing’s trip to the Mu Family to strike against Bai Zhiqing. If they capture Bai Zhiqing, they could obtain Lu Tianxing’s cultivation technique. Even though Lu Tianxing’s strength and tactics inspire awe, under the weight of absolute interest, these factors become negligible and inconsequential.

No one said anything further upon hearing Shen Manjun’s words, and they all focused on scanning the villa’s surroundings, preparing for whatever might come.

Moments later, several figures darted in from the distance, not hesitating for a moment. Like phantoms, they instantly appeared inside the villa.

Unfortunately, before these individuals could react, without even a chance to scream, beams of bullets roared in, piercing through the air with a fiery aura. They pierced their chests, nailing them to the villa’s walls. Their bodies twitched twice before going silent, unquestionably dead.

Following this wave of death, the faces of those hidden outside the villa turned extremely grim. The walls surrounding Lin Yafei’s villa prevented anyone from seeing the situation inside, but they had already sent in two groups without achieving the expected results. Instead, those who entered seemed to vanish without a trace, not uttering a single sound. This realization dropped everyone’s spirits into the abyss.

Given the current situation, there’s only one explanation: an inescapable net had long been laid inside. The people they dispatched were immediately dealt with using thunderous measures, causing their silent demise.

"Things seem dire; the other side must have been prepared, indeed waiting for us to charge in. What’s our next step?" one group leader asked, lowering their voice, eyes fierce yet tinged with unavoidable caution towards the direction of Lin Yafei’s villa.

"What can we do? We can only charge in now; is retreat still an option at this point?" A middle-aged man with a knife scar on his face harshly replied, his tone filled with an unspeakable murderous intent.

"That’s right, there’s only one path left for us to take now."

Following the knife-scarred man’s words, a woman wielding dual blades also spoke, "We’re already at the point where the arrow is on the string, we have to move. Even if we retreat now, Lu Tianxing might not spare us. If Yama Palace traces back to us, considering Lu Tianxing’s character, do you think he’d let us go?"

"Exactly, Lu Tianxing certainly won’t spare us; instead, he’d eliminate us entirely. Not only us, but our families, loved ones would also face ruin. Given this, why not take a chance?"

The middle-aged man with a knife scar stated ruthlessly, "Now, the entire world talks about how Lu Tianxing can challenge those above his level due to his cultivation technique. And Bai Zhiqing is his favorite woman; as long as we capture Bai Zhiqing and force Lu Tianxing to hand over his cultivation technique, it won’t be long before we cultivate top-tier experts one after another. Who could stand against us in China then?"

"Everyone charge in, get inside. Let’s see if there’s truly an inescapable net laid inside this villa. Even if there is, I will tear it apart."

The knife-scarred middle-aged man added harshly, "Don’t go in all at once, enter in batches. But ensure the interval between batches never exceeds three breaths’ time. Once a battle ensues inside, everyone storm in and wipe out the villa’s defensive power with thunderous force."
