Chapter 48 Yan Family Crisis

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Yan Family Crisis

The Yan Family was located in the southeastern suburbs of the Capital City, covering an area of about ten acres. The courtyards were orderly and crisscrossed, old yet grand, indicating that the Yan Family was not an ordinary splendor.

In the Yan Family’s council hall, Yan Mo sat in the family head’s position, frowning.

"Yun’er, how is your investigation into Yan Rufeng’s background going?"

Yan Yun bowed and said, "Father, there is no such person. All the information about Yan Rufeng in Zhongzhou is blank, but..."

"But what?" Yan Mo pressed.

"Father, I’ve heard that Yan Rufeng from Zhongzhou has come to the Capital City."

Yan Mo frowned again and asked, "Did you find out why Yan Rufeng came to the Capital City?"

Yan Yun paused and said, "Father, I don’t know."

"Yan Yun, when will you handle things like your elder brother? Whatever I ask you, you always don’t know." Yan Mo lectured Yan Yun helplessly.

"Father, you are right to rebuke me. But father, if we can draw Yan Rufeng to our side, I believe the Song Family wouldn’t dare act against us."

Hearing the name Yan Rufeng, Yan Mo’s frown relaxed instantly.

"Do you know where Yan Rufeng is, and are you sure he will help us?"

Yan Yun straightened his back and confidently said, "Father, all Yans in the world share the same ancestry. I believe Yan Rufeng will help us against the Song Family."

"Sigh..."

"It’s true we share the same surname, but does that mean he will necessarily help us?" Yan Mo looked at Yan Yun with a sense of frustration.

"Father, you must know that the Song Family has invited Zhang Feilong, the president of the Martial Arts Association. This Zhang Feilong lost face to Yan Rufeng in Zhongzhou, and it’s said that he has found his master and is preparing to go to Zhongzhou to settle the score with Yan Rufeng. But now, Yan Rufeng is in the Capital City. If we could connect with Yan Rufeng, our crisis will surely be resolved."

Yan Mo pondered. After a long time, he said, "It’s said that Zhang Feilong’s master entered the Transformation Realm many years ago. Then wouldn’t Yan Rufeng be in danger this time?"

Yan Yun smiled and said, "Father, you watched that live broadcast too. Even you said that Yan Rufeng is a master who has entered the Transformation Realm. Just imagine, if two Transformation Realm masters fight, how would Zhang Feilong have the mind to care about the Song Family? When the time comes, we can take the opportunity to counter-attack. The Song Family will surely suffer a loss."

"Hmm, that makes sense."

Yan Mo sat down, took a sip of tea, and ordered, "Yun’er, find out where Yan Rufeng is in the Capital City now. I want to see him within three days."

"I obey, father."

The Song Family, one of the Eight Great Families of the Capital City, was as wealthy as the Yan Family. At the same time, the Song Family was also a long-hidden Martial Arts Family. As for why the Song Family suddenly targeted the Yan Family, it all started with Zhang Mingdong.

Zhang Mingdong’s family left Zhongzhou and sought refuge with his aunt in the Capital City, whose husband was the eldest son of the Capital City’s Song Family.

When the Song Family learned that Zhang Mingdong’s family went bankrupt because of Yan Rufeng, they discovered, before Yan Rufeng’s information was sealed, that Yan Rufeng’s father, Yan Feng, was the eldest son of the Yan Family. Thus, the Song Family decided to erase the Yan Family in the Capital City first, leaving Yan Rufeng without a foundation, and then move against Yan Rufeng.

Of course, confronting the Yan Family was not an easy task for the Song Family. However, Zhang Mingdong suggested inviting Zhang Feilong, the president of the Martial Arts Association, to aid the Song Family. Everything went according to Zhang Mingdong’s plan. Zhang Feilong, having lost his dignity because of Yan Rufeng, did not hesitate to accept the Song Family’s invitation when they sought him out.

The Song Family Patriarch, Song Wentao, aged 65, held the rank of Martial Artist Peak.

In the living room, Song Wentao smiled with eyes flashing shrewdly, looking at Zhang Feilong in front of him.

"Brother Zhang, with your help, the Yan Family’s grand edifice will surely collapse."

"Haha..."

"Brother Song, you overpraise me. To be on the safe side, I have informed my master. He will arrive in the Capital City in three days."

"Oh!"

Song Wentao’s tone shifted, "Brother Zhang, is it necessary to trouble Immortal Hu to deal with the Yan Family personally?"

"Brother Song, don’t forget, the Yan Family has Yan Rufeng. We can’t be careless." Zhang Feilong emphasized.

"Sigh."

Song Wentao sighed deeply, "Who would have thought that the Yan Family would produce such an extraordinary genius? Yan Mo would never imagine that his never-before-seen genius grandson would bring about the Yan Family’s destruction."

Zhang Feilong seemed to envision stepping on Yan Rufeng, laughing arrogantly, "Brother Song, to be safe, we should join forces with more families to deal with the Yan Family together." Zhang Feilong suggested.

Song Wentao bowed his head in thought. After a long while, he said, "Hang’er, for the sake of your brother-in-law, visit the Mu Family."

Song Hang bowed and said, "Father, I will go to the Mu Family right away."

Yan Rufeng had just left the Mu Mansion when Song Family’s eldest son, Song Hang, arrived at the Mu Family.

"Nephew Song Hang greets Uncle Mu."

Mu Yang opened his eyes and said, "Speak directly."

"Uncle Mu, my father asked me to convey his wishes."

"Haha!"

Mu Yang sneered, "Since when does the Song Family command our Mu Family? And conveying your father’s wishes, get out!"

"Hmph!"

Song Hang snorted coldly, "My father pitied your Mu Family for being devastated by the Yan Family and thought to collaborate with your Mu Family against the Yan Family. Now it seems you don’t deserve such an opportunity."

"To deal with the Yan Family, you Song Family must be dreaming." Mu Yang turned and left, ordering to see the guest out.

Kicked out, Song Hang cursed, "What arrogance from a declining family! If you don’t know what’s good for you, don’t blame our Song Family for being impolite."

Song Hang returned to the Song Family, and when Song Wentao heard what happened, he was furious, "Mu Yang, you old fool, don’t give you face and lose it instead. When I, Song Wentao, destroy the Yan Family, I’ll deal with your Mu Family next..."

Everything the Song Family did greatly pleased Zhang Mingdong. He knew it wouldn’t be long before he could personally deal with the detested Yan Rufeng.

That night, the Song Family hosted a banquet to entertain Zhang Feilong. During the meal, Zhang Dongming shamelessly requested to become Zhang Feilong’s apprentice. Initially, Zhang Feilong refused, but Song Wentao kept praising him, so Zhang Feilong reluctantly accepted Zhang Mingdong as his disciple.

Seeing this, Song Wentao smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, do you know anything about the Special Forces?"

Zhang Feilong smiled, "Brother Song, the Special Forces are too mysterious; I’m not very clear about them."

"Haha..."

Song Wentao laughed, "Brother Zhang, I’ve heard that the Special Forces are recruiting now, doesn’t your association still have two spots?"

Zhang Feilong did not speak, thinking to himself, "This Song Wentao is really cunning. Does he want to send Zhang Mingdong to the Special Forces?"

"Brother Song, you are well-informed and resourceful. I admire you."

Song Wentao said, "Brother Zhang, your disciple, Zhang Mingdong, was bankrupted by that brat Yan Rufeng. Zhang Family has lost its direction. Since your association still has spots, please grant one to my son-in-law Zhang Mingdong."

Zhang Feilong forced a smile, "Since Brother Song asked, how could I refuse?"

Hearing that he could go to the Special Forces, Zhang Mingdong was overjoyed and quickly said, "Thank you, Master, for making it happen."
