Chapter 2844 - 2906: Family Precepts

Wang Chunlai is gone, and his nephew has been taken away as well. However, his legs were broken by Wang Chunlai himself right at the entrance of the Li family. This made Li Yifei smirk coldly; Wang Chunlai played this hand well, not only blocking Li Yifei from venting his anger but also showing the attitude of the Wang Family—a ruthless one, where Elder Wang is ruthless to his family and naturally the same to others.

Speaking of the connection between Wang and Zhao Fugui, bringing the latter home—if Wang Chunlai knew nothing about it, Li Yifei doesn’t believe it. A person like Wang Chunlai, if he couldn’t control the family, Li Yifei would believe even less. The reason why the old man came to the Li family decisively to apologize is all because of Li Yifei’s actions.

Once he took action, it was earth-shattering, rendering Zhao Fugui and the experts he brought all crippled. Such a move truly scared and intimidated a group of restless people.

Standing at the entrance, Li Yifei nodded with a smile; this is good, always giving a warning to those with unclear attitudes, letting them imagine how the Three Great Clans in the provincial capital were destroyed, even wiped out overnight.

"Why do some people just not understand a basic truth?" Li Yifei seemed to be talking to himself, yet also appeared to be asking the security guards standing beside him. Seeing he had been silent for a long while, the closest guard said, "Clan Chief, people like that aren’t incapable of understanding the truth, they simply choose not to understand or pretend ignorance."

Upon hearing this, Li Yifei turned around, pointed at the security guard, and smiled: "You’re right, the former is fine, but the latter is bad."

The guard nodded repeatedly, then listened as Li Yifei continued to say, "But it’s okay; it doesn’t matter who is good or bad. Our Li family is just the Li family; from the establishment of the clan to today, it has been carried by me, and you all. We fear no one coming."

Upon hearing these words, several security guards immediately looked excited, standing tall and straight, and the guard who spoke first quickly said, "Clan Chief, we are born as Li family people, and we will die as Li family people, with absolutely no second thoughts."

"Don’t get excited, I didn’t say that. I absolutely believe in your loyalty, there’s no doubt about that. You help me, protect my family, and I won’t forget it—sharing honor and disgrace together." Li Yifei patted his shoulder, the guard’s face turning red from excitement, nodding forcefully as he heard Li Yifei say, "Gather everyone who’s at home and not on duty, I want to hold a meeting."

"Yes!" Several guards immediately turned and jogged away, beginning to gather the Li family guards dispersed everywhere to the meeting room.

Twenty minutes later, Li Yifei walked into the meeting room, and dozens of guards stood up in unison, their movements in perfect synchronicity, yet the room was very quiet.

When Li Yifei walked to the main seat, the guards said in unison: "Clan Chief."

"Sit, everyone sit down." Li Yifei smiled.

"Yes, Clan Chief." They immediately replied.

"It’s been a while since I’ve talked properly with all of you." Li Yifei sat down first, then the guards sat down together. After his opening remarks, Li Yifei smiled, saying, "Today, let’s discuss serious business first, and then talk about other things."

The guards sat upright, listening attentively, and Li Yifei went straight to the point: "In Black Province, there’s a Zhao Family, ranked first in Black Province. I believe many brothers have heard of them. Perhaps because they’ve been at the top for too long, they’re thinking of expanding; recently, they’ve set their sights on Ning Province. Being number one in Ning Province, our family has naturally become their target. Of course, this is understandable. If they can’t handle us, then they can’t establish themselves in Ning Province either. But this is a bit excessive; Ning Province is so vast, and money should be earned through ability, not force. The strong dragon can’t overpower the native snake."

"Moreover, they are not even a strong dragon. Our native snake here is far more powerful than a dragon." As Li Yifei spoke, laughter erupted from the crowd below. After their laughter faded, Li Yifei’s face turned serious, saying: "Therefore, I’m giving you one task, the only task."

"You all have trained for so long, never abandoning training even in peaceful times. Now it’s time to test your skills. My task is to protect my family and yours. This is our home; this is the Li family. Anyone who dares invade will be killed without mercy!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The Li family guards exuded a murderous aura, their shouts echoing.

Li Yifei nodded and continued: "If any brothers unfortunately get injured or sacrifice themselves, as long as I or my family are here, we’ll ensure they live well. This is my promise to you all, for I do not know what dangers the future holds!"

"Clan Chief, the families of the brothers have already received much favor; even if we die for the Li family, we will not hesitate. If the Zhao Family dares come, we guarantee they won’t return!" A guard stood up, speaking firmly.

"Very good. Next, I’ll tell you how to deal with experts. The Zhao Family has many experts. Although I don’t know where they got so many experts from, such people are challenging to handle at close range. However, we have advanced technology and weapons that compensate for our shortcomings. In terms of shooting skills and tactics, they cannot match us, and that is our advantage."

Below, everyone nodded continuously, and Li Yifei continued: "Operate in combat teams as units; heading out must be done in teams, and the same applies to protecting others. At home, ensure hidden points are constantly manned with people 24 hours, and all devices should be activated to their highest level. If their people dare to come, they will be killed."

"Yes!" The crowd shouted.

Li Yifei continued for half an hour, giving out all necessary instructions, then left a few team captains to strategize a detailed plan. After all, the women of the Li family still need to work, so external protection is essential.

"Family Head, all commercial vehicles in the home have now been fully modified!" A captain reported.

"Very good." Li Yifei nodded. These vehicles were specially commissioned by Li Yifei and sent to a state department for modifications. He used his connections to have all these vehicles upgraded—not only reinforced with steel plates, and the glass changed to bulletproof ones, but many components on these vehicles, many features have been enhanced. They look like regular cars, but if a situation arises, they will serve their role unexpectedly.

"Recruitment and testing of new members have been completed," the captain continued.

"Train them first; there’s no rush this time." Li Yifei said.

"Yes, additionally, Family Head... There’s something I’m unsure if I should mention or not."

"Speak, what is there that can’t be said?"

"Family Head, I believe our personnel should be valued for their quality, not quantity!"

Li Yifei smiled and nodded, saying, "Of course, I understand that. Right now, it’s not considered too much; furthermore, this period is tumultuous. But the focus of our training in the future should indeed change. Although called security guards, the Li family guards are essentially members of the family—only with a different surname. As long as they are loyal, they can work not just as security guards but, if capable, in our various companies!"

"Thank you, Family Head." Several captains simultaneously expressed gratitude.

Li Yifei comforted them with a few words before leaving the meeting room. Speaking is one thing, but he might not be as forthright as his words suggest. The loyalty of these guards need not be questioned, but their descendants or later guards are indeed questionable. Furthermore, Li Yifei set the retirement age between forty and forty-five. If one feels depleted in energy, they may apply for retirement, receive payment, and transfer to a Li family company or even move out. However, confidentiality must be signed, prohibiting external discussions of Li family matters.

Arriving at Jiang Ningxiang’s residence, Li Yifei first entertained the child, then helped Jiang Ningxiang wash and arrange the baby bottles and such. Though he hadn’t done much of these things, he was quite adept. Jiang Ningxiang, like a few years ago, is virtually unchanged—that’s one of the benefits of being an Innate Expert. She doesn’t look like the mother of a two or three-year-old but rather still resembles a college girl.

Watching the child eat and fall asleep, Jiang Ningxiang placed them in the crib, turning around with a shy smile at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei opened his arms, embracing the little darling into his arms, and gently exerting pressure, filling his embrace with Yingxiang.

"Hubby," Jiang Ningxiang whispered, feeling Li Yifei’s warmth. "The baby... the baby just fell asleep, let’s go downstairs."

"Where’s your mind going? I’m here to see you and the child, not for that matter; you don’t have to mind it, it’s feeling your presence and thus acting instinctively!" Li Yifei twisted his body slightly, speaking indifferently.

"Ah?" Jiang Ningxiang hurriedly said, "No... it doesn’t matter, I do enjoy doing those things with hubby; just worried about disturbing the child. You know, sometimes I get carried away."

"Silly girl, after all these years, you haven’t changed; you’re still my silly girl." Li Yifei couldn’t help but laugh: "Really don’t have to do that; actually, going to your house itself is a different feeling, you could say it’s an enjoyment. The experiences with each of you are different; coming to each of your homes doesn’t necessarily mean doing those things—I genuinely mean that."

"I know." Jiang Ningxiang nodded emphatically, wrapping her arms around Li Yifei’s waist, burying her head in his embrace.

After a moment, Jiang Ningxiang raised her head, asking, "Hubby, do we have enemies again?"

"Not really, haha, our family now isn’t easily looked down upon by ordinary folks." Li Yifei laughed.

"I heard from Sister Yingying, about the situation at home; don’t worry, I’ll take care of things as best as I can. If anyone dares to come, I’ll pick up a weapon to teach them a lesson," Jiang Ningxiang said resolutely.

"Don’t be too tense, things aren’t clear yet, though I’ve just provoked the Zhao family; it’s wise for us to be cautious." Li Yifei responded.
