153: Chapter 153 Suppressing Liu Changfeng, Attacking the Liu Family
"Yes, Brother, Brother Yun only agreed to save you after accepting the medicinal herbs I cultivated," Ye Lingxi said proudly, as if being able to help General Ye Wudi was a matter of great pride.
Upon hearing this, General Ye Wudi looked at Ye Lingxi with a hint of doting affection.
"Brother Yun, try my cooking!" Ye Lingxi went to show off her skills happily.
While Hun Tiandi and the others were talking, a servant from the Liu Family keeping watch outside looked shocked and muttered to himself, "General Ye Wudi has actually recovered. I must go tell Young Master Liu Changfeng immediately..."
He immediately turned and left. A cold sneer appeared on the corner of Hun Tiandi's mouth; tonight was destined to be turbulent.
The fish has taken the bait!
The Liu Family residence.
Liu Changfeng was leaning back in his chair, tapping his fingers on the table, waiting for news to close the net.
"Young Master Liu Changfeng, it's bad! General Ye Wudi's injuries have healed, and he's lively and active."
"Damn it, ruining my plans..." Upon hearing this, Liu Changfeng stood up abruptly and led his men towards the Ye Siblings' small courtyard. In Tianhuang City, no one had ever dared to offend the Liu Family.
The Ye Siblings' small courtyard.
Ye Lingxi had prepared a table of food—dishes made from medicinal herbs paired with monkey spirit wine—and everyone was enjoying the delicious meal.
"This wine is not bad..." General Ye Wudi gulped it down. Surging energy dispersed and rampaged through his body, and he felt his physical strength increase significantly.
"If you like it, drink more." Hun Tiandi was not stingy and took out a few more bottles, placing them on the table.
Just as everyone was having a good time, a gloomy-faced young man barged in with his followers.
"Young Master Liu Changfeng, why are you here?" General Ye Wudi asked. He had been escorting supplies for the Liu Family, and since they had ignored his injuries, his impression of them had dropped to freezing point.
"Ye Wudi, the reason for this visit is that a few days ago, the route for the Liu Family's supply transport was leaked. An investigation revealed that the three of you are highly suspicious, so you need to be brought back to the Liu Family for interrogation..."
Liu Changfeng was extremely overbearing. With a wave of his sleeves, the dozen or so guards behind him drew their cold weapons, the blades glinting with a chilling light, surrounding Hun Tiandi and the other two.
Upon hearing this, General Ye Wudi frowned slightly. He turned to look at Hun Tiandi, unwilling to believe that his savior could be a secret assassin.
"No, Brother Yun has done me a great favor..." General Ye Wudi shook his head, refusing to believe it, and rejected Liu Changfeng's attempt to take him away.
"It's impossible; Brother Yun is not that kind of person..." Ye Lingxi also spoke up, looking at Liu Changfeng with angry, beautiful eyes.
Hearing this, Liu Changfeng's expression turned completely cold. A hint of greed appeared in his eyes as he looked at Ye Lingxi, and he was furious inside.
Hun Tiandi was drinking leisurely, seemingly unaware of the dangerous scene before him. Yan Xing's cloudy eyes flickered as he prayed for Liu Changfeng in his heart: of all the people you could have provoked, why did you have to provoke this bane?
"Kid, come with me, and you'll be spared from physical pain," Liu Changfeng said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Hun Tiandi raised his head and glanced at the arrogant Liu Changfeng. He then looked at Yan Xing. After understanding the signal, his aura surged forth.
Clang... The surrounding guards were enveloped by this powerful aura. Their weapons fell to the ground, and their eyes were filled with terror as they collapsed onto the floor.
"A Dou Zong?"
"Hmph, let me go immediately! I am a member of the Liu Family. Offending me means you won't be able to leave Tianhuang City..." Liu Changfeng blustered, his voice weak despite his fierce tone.
"Hehe, what kind of bullshit Liu Family is that? Daring to offend my Master..." Yan Xing sneered.
"Why target us?" Hun Tiandi asked indifferently. From buying the golden blood ginseng at Furong Pavilion, to sending people to tail us, and bringing men here to frame us.
Liu Changfeng remained silent, but his heart was filled with horror; this youth actually knew all about his plans.
"Kill..." Hun Tiandi said coldly. Yan Xing clenched his palm abruptly, and one of the guards silently dissolved into a pool of thick liquid, a strong stench of blood filling the air.
General Ye Wudi was quick; he covered Ye Lingxi's eyes, as this bloody scene was not suitable for her to see.
"You..." Liu Changfeng was terrified, his voice trembling.
Surging energy filled Yan Xing's massive palm, and a murderous aura was released. The temperature in the surroundings plummeted rapidly, as if it were the dead of winter.
Sensing the old man's cruelty, Liu Changfeng said, "My Liu Family received information that the news of you offending the Starfall Pavilion and the Xiao Family has spread. If we capture you, we can curry favor with those two great factions."
He held back nothing and spilled everything.
Once these words were spoken, Liu Ling and Yan Xing looked grim, but only Hun Tiandi remained calm, as if he had known all along.
"What about General Ye Wudi being ambushed while escorting supplies?" Hun Tiandi asked again.
Liu Changfeng's expression changed drastically; he even knew about this.
"The route for the transported supplies was deliberately leaked by me. The goal was to wipe out the guards escorting them," Liu Changfeng said with a terrified expression.
"No, the loss of supplies is actually a trivial matter. Your target was Ye Lingxi, right? Once General Ye Wudi, her brother, was dead, with the methods of your Liu Family, Ye Lingxi would naturally fall into your hands..."
Hun Tiandi shattered his illusions once again.
"You..." Liu Changfeng's fingers trembled as he pointed at Hun Tiandi.
"What? Liu Changfeng, you truly deserve to die..." Upon learning the ins and outs of the matter, General Ye Wudi was furious.
If they hadn't met an expert, just imagine what would have happened if Ye Lingxi had fallen into his hands—there would definitely have been no good outcome.
"Kill him!" Hun Tiandi commanded. Yan Xing acted cleanly, crushing all the remaining guards to death.
"Let me go, otherwise my Liu Family will destroy you." Fear covered Liu Changfeng's face, and he regretted not bringing more men.
"Don't be in such a hurry. You go on ahead, and I'll send the Liu Family down to join you shortly after," Hun Tiandi said, as cold as ice.
Yan Xing twisted his palm, and Liu Changfeng turned into ashes, dissipating with the wind.
Afterwards, he waved his sleeves, dispersing the smell of blood.
"You should also leave quickly and find another place to live!" Hun Tiandi stood up, about to leave the Ye Siblings' home.
"Brother Yun, wait! We, the Ye Siblings, want to go with you..." General Ye Wudi shouted urgently.
"Oh? Actually, Liu Changfeng was right. I have offended the Starfall Pavilion, the Xiao Family, and the Burning Flame Valley... If you come with me, you will be hunted down at all times," Hun Tiandi asked with interest.
"Brother Yun saved my life. I, General Ye Wudi, am willing to follow you. Life and death are in the hands of the heavens," General Ye Wudi said solemnly.
Beside him, Ye Lingxi's beautiful eyes held a hint of anticipation.
"Very well, go get ready!" Hun Tiandi finally nodded, not hiding in the slightest what they were about to face.
Ye Lingxi smiled slightly and nimbly collected the medicinal herbs from the herb garden; these were all painstakingly cultivated.
She stored them one by one in jade bottles.
By nightfall, Ye Lingxi had packed all the medicinal herbs. General Ye Wudi stood to the side, looking back at the small courtyard; having left today, he did not know when he would return.
"Liu Ling, take the Ye Siblings and wait for me at the plaza's space wormhole." Hun Tiandi arranged the plans for the night; the Ye Siblings' strength was too low, and it would be dangerous to bring them along.
Liu Ling nodded.
Tonight, the moon was dark and the wind was high; it was time to attack the Liu Family.
Since the Liu Family was deeply involved in the great waves, they should be prepared to capsize.
Immediately, the group left the Ye Siblings' small courtyard, splitting into two parties to depart.
"Hmm? Why hasn't Liu Changfeng returned yet?" Inside the Liu Family's great hall, Liu Ruyan was pacing back and forth, waiting anxiously with her delicate brows furrowed. She had previously been informed by her subordinates that Liu Changfeng had taken men to the Ye Siblings' small courtyard.
"Could something have happened?" As if realizing something, Liu Ruyan suddenly looked up.
She was about to call for someone to go to the Ye Siblings' small courtyard to see what exactly had happened.
In front of the Liu Family residence. "Attack. Leave no one alive," Hun Tiandi sneered.
