58: You even went after your sister-in-law?

"Although Minger has only just begun to handle the Family's business, he is truly very capable. Not only did he effortlessly resolve several crises brought about by the Huangfu Family, but he also pushed them to the point of desperation."

"Moreover, our Feng Family's income has increased several times over compared to before. Minger's ability is obvious to all; your Eldest Uncle's Wife will always support you."

The others nodded one after another upon hearing this.

Only Feng Mian felt some confusion.

He had been away from home for less than a year, and upon returning, he had no status left.

Had this younger brother not only married his wife but also charmed away his parents?

They even trusted him completely as a Family.

Feng Xiaotian spoke up: "Speak, I want to hear the strategy you have in mind."

Feng Ming replied: "I want to go to Qingyang City and fight the Huangfu Family to the end."

"I have many Pill Formulas with high yield rates. High production means a price advantage. The Huangfu Family certainly cannot compete with us on this. If they can run to Liumian Prefecture to wage a price war against us, we will go right to their doorstep to fight."

"Of course, when they can't compete, they will certainly resort to violence. But when that happens, with the law in place and the City Lord watching like a tiger, they won't be able to escape even if they want to."

Feng Xiaotian nodded, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

"Those aren't the problems. What I am most worried about is what we should do if they resort to secret assassinations?"

Feng Ming nodded, "The simplest and crudest method for this is to kill all the powerful members of the Huangfu Family."

"What?" The crowd was instantly stunned.

This method was indeed simple and crude.

The key was, was it feasible?

Feng Muqing was the first to recover, and he said: "Minger, stop messing around. This isn't just a matter of venting by saying harsh words. If you actually go through with it... that would be gambling with the lives of everyone in the Feng Family."

"The head of the Huangfu Family, Huangfu Qing, is a powerhouse at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, and his strength is about to enter the Mahayana Realm."

"Even the City Lord of Qingyang City, who is in the Mahayana Realm, is wary of him. You are only at the Foundation Establishment Realm; how could you possibly wipe out the powerhouses of the Huangfu Family?"

As an elder, Feng Muqing thought that Feng Ming was unaware of the situation in Qingyang City, so he carefully informed him.

Feng Ming smiled faintly, "Eldest Uncle, when I said kill, I didn't mean I would do it personally; I meant killing with a borrowed knife."

"Isn't the City Lord of Qingyang City at the Mahayana Stage? If he makes a move, it will certainly work."

Feng Muqing shook his head, "The City Lord certainly has the strength, but he will not help us, and the Huangfu Family has given him no leverage to make a move."

Feng Ming laughed, "That is why we should all move to Qingyang City and give the City Lord some leverage."

"We only need to consider how we will survive when the Huangfu Family makes their move."

"However, there is no need to worry too much. The Huangfu Family should be even more cautious than us, because they not only want to kill us, but they also have to be careful not to leave behind any evidence."

Feng Muqing understood what Feng Ming meant, but his brows were still tightly furrowed.

"The Huangfu Family's strength is very formidable. Our current Foundation cannot cope with it at all. Once they go for the kill, we will be completely wiped out."

Feng Muyang, however, strongly agreed with his son's point of view.

"Big Brother, I know what you are worried about, but if we don't fight back, will the Huangfu Family let us go?"

"We chose to escape back then, which is why we moved the whole Family to Liumian Prefecture. Do you still want to run away like a stray dog, just like before?"

In reality, everyone knew in their hearts that they had no choice now.

Either run away or fight to the death.

At this moment, everyone's gaze turned to Feng Xiaotian, waiting for him, the head of the Family, to make a decision.

Feng Xiaotian did not speak, only tapping the armrest of his chair incessantly.

A full quarter of an hour passed before he sighed and spoke.

"Our Feng Family was once glorious. Now that we have fallen to this state, it is indeed time for us to bounce back from rock bottom. I am not afraid of death, but you..."

"You juniors are the hope of my Feng Family, and I truly cannot bear it."

"Feng Ming, how much certainty do you have that you can keep everyone safe?"

Feng Ming said: "Big Brother, Shuwan, and I will all go to the Lingxiao Sect. In the Sect, they won't dare to make a move, but at home..."

"They will definitely target you, Grandfather, and the Eldest Uncle."

"Currently, I am eighty percent sure that I can block the Huangfu Family's hidden arrows."

Feng Xiaotian nodded.

"The Huangfu Family's reliance is their strength, but as long as they don't wipe us out completely, we can open our shops in Qingyang City. When that time comes, the Huangfu Family's reputation will inevitably decline."

"Calculating it this way, taking the risk is worth it. Even if we die, we will have created a world for you all, and it will be a death with purpose."

"Therefore, I have decided: we will move into Qingyang City!"

Feng Xiaotian looked at his two children and daughter-in-law, "You don't blame this old man, do you?"

Feng Muqing and Feng Muyang looked at each other and smiled. "Father, they are our children too; how could we blame you? We support you!"

The several elders looked at Feng Ming simultaneously, their eyes filled with gratification.

Jiang Shuwan tightly grasped Feng Ming's hand, her expression resolute.

Feng Xiaotian continued: "Since there are no objections, let us prepare."

"Minger, you should also hurry and take Shuwan to participate in the assessment."

Feng Ming shook his head, "Grandfather, I have another suggestion. Since we have decided to go to Qingyang City, let us start planning from today."

"Moving away certainly cannot be done with great fanfare, lest we attract the attention of the Huangfu Family. But my Feng Family is, after all, a well-known and reputable household in Liumian Prefecture, and we have quite a lot of assets."

"I think it would be better to start today and gradually liquidate the things that are inconvenient to carry!"

"Then, after five days, we will set off together for Qingyang City!"

"Five days later? Why so urgent?" Feng Xiaotian looked confused.

Feng Mian was stunned, then immediately remembered.

"Because five days from now, the Lingxiao Sect Disciples will return. Every year after the recruitment of Disciples ends, the City Lord of Qingyang City sends Garrison Soldiers to various cities to pick up these new Disciples and take them to Qingyang City."

"If we travel with the recruitment team, the Huangfu Family won't dare to take any action even if they know."

After Feng Ming finished speaking, Feng Mian wore an expression of 'as I expected.'

How had he never noticed before that this younger brother's mind was so meticulous?

At the same time, he was also glad; it was fortunate that Feng Ming was his younger brother. If he were an enemy, that would be truly miserable.

Feng Xiaotian also laughed, "You truly had a plan all along."

"Since that is the case, I will leave this matter to you. The entire Feng Family will follow your arrangements."

Feng Ming nodded, "Good, then thank you to all the elders for your cooperation."

Feng Xiaotian waved his hand, "The most pressing matter is to finish the assessment first. You should hurry off."

Feng Ming, Jiang Shuwan, and Feng Mian left.

The remaining Feng Muqing, Feng Muyang, and the Eldest Uncle's Wife went to busy themselves with the moving arrangements.

Such a secretive matter had to be handled personally.

Otherwise, once the news leaked and the Huangfu Family noticed, things would become very troublesome.

...

After leaving the door of the hall, Feng Mian looked at Feng Ming with a look of deep emotion.

"Second brother, I never noticed; you really have so many tricks up your sleeve."

"Honestly speaking, besides stealing my wife, have you ever tricked me in other ways?"

Jiang Shuwan spoke a step before Feng Ming.

"Big Brother, my husband is not like that. This time, it was the Huangfu Family that went too far, which is why my husband planned to fight back."

Feng Mian's complexion darkened a bit upon hearing this.

"Hmph, I don't believe it. He must have tricked me; otherwise, how could he have married you?"

"Ah, how times have changed. There are only the two of us in the Feng Family. Although we are not born of the same mother, we are as close as brothers, yet you even refuse to spare your own sister-in-law."

"Are you even human?"
