Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty
Chapter 61: Pingchuan Xinyi

Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Pingchuan Xinyi

At the inception of White Clothes Pavilion, Jiang Lan had received numerous investment proposals from foreign capitals and powers.

However, without exception, she rejected them all.

Actually, Jiang Lan knew that accepting foreign capital would be very beneficial for the development of White Clothes Pavilion.

Especially in terms of opening up international markets, it would make things much simpler and more convenient.

But Jiang Lan was even more clear about what White Clothes Pavilion did: intelligence and assassination. What would you do when the foreign powers ask you to provide domestic secret intelligence, would you provide it or not? If they want you to assassinate some officials, would you execute the hit or not?

If you don’t comply, they would coerce you using their capital.

If you do it, then the nature of your actions becomes deplorable, involving collusion and betrayal.

Even more so, once you compromised for the first time, they would definitely use that evidence to threaten you, to betray your own country countlessly.

At that time, you’d truly be plunged into eternal darkness, never to rise again.

"I won’t make a mistake," Lu Xiao shook his head.

The information about Tianhe Capital was passed on from Black Lotus.

If Arthur could get something this simple wrong, then his head would have likely been chopped off and used as a piss pot by now.

Intelligence capability is crucial for an assassin organization, affecting pricing, risk assessment, and assassination strategies in every aspect.

You can’t just go kill whoever people ask you to kill. What if the target is stronger and more ruthless than you? What if they command powerful forces? Would you still naively charge in and do it?

"Lu Xiao! Don’t push people too far!"

"Even if we don’t cooperate, you can’t slander the Gui Family."

"The Gui Family has a history of over two hundred years. During the war with Japan, every able-bodied member of the Gui Family went to fight; 35 went, and only 3 returned!"

"I will not tolerate your defamation!"

On the ground, Gui Pingchuan roared furiously.

The scene was exceedingly silent, everyone turned to look at Lu Xiao, waiting for his explanation and response.

The valiant resistance of the Gui Family against Japan in the past was historically established.

Lu Xiao sneered, and with one hand, he grabbed Gui Pingchuan by the neck and lifted him up.

"Smack!" Lu Xiao slapped him again, harder than before.

With a single slap, most of Gui Pingchuan’s teeth were knocked out.

"Come on, tell me your last name again. If you dare to claim the Gui surname again, I swear I’ll personally send your entire family to report to the underworld," Lu Xiao said fiercely, his raging shout even trembling slightly.

Chen Fei and Chen Han were both startled by Lu Xiao’s demeanor.

They had been living with Lu Xiao for several days, encountering not a few matters, but they had never seen Lu Xiao this angry before.

Gui Pingchuan was also intimidated by Lu Xiao, his body taut, unable to utter a word.

"If you won’t say it, then I’ll say it for you!" Lu Xiao’s eyes were ablaze with the intent to kill.

"Your name is Pingchuan Xinyi, from Hokkaido, Japan."

"Twenty-two years ago, you and your wife Nakamura Shino came here."

"Under the operation of Tianhe Capital, you assassinated the entire Gui Family and took over their home."

"You even secretly burned down the Gui Family’s Martyrs’ Shrine, placing the plaques of the war criminals inside."

With each word Lu Xiao spoke, Pingchuan Xinyi’s face turned a shade paler, and simultaneously, each of Lu Xiao’s words was like a sharp knife piercing the hearts of everyone present.

"How dare you! How dare you claim to be a member of the Gui Family!" Lu Xiao’s grip on his hand tightened.

When Black Lotus was investigating, they had also compiled the Gui Family’s past exploits.

The entire clan’s young and strong, all 35 of them, fought to the death, with only 3 survivors, who were all grievously wounded and disabled.

While Lu Xiao was moved by these tragic acts of bravery, the fury in his chest burned fiercely.

He had even thought about sending Pingchuan Xinyi straight to hell upon meeting him.

But he held back, as killing one Pingchuan Xinyi wouldn’t quell the rage in his heart.

If he was to kill, he would exterminate them all.

"Damn you, I’ll chop you to death!" Zhou Hu charged forward, wielding a large knife.

The detestable Japanese, committing such heartless atrocities.

"Brother Lu, let him go. If I don’t stab a hundred holes into this bastard today, my last name isn’t Chen!" Chen Han, with a Finger Knife swirling in hand, his expression extremely somber.

The historical hatred of their invasion was still vivid, and now they were causing us harm again!

Besides Zhou Hu and Chen Han, the others also drew their weapons, and those without weapons picked up bricks.

Lu Xiao was pleased with everyone’s reaction.

In the past, you may have been assassins, smugglers, bullies dominating the streets, but at least at this moment, your inner bloodlust was ignited, along with a fervent patriotism deep in your bones.

The next second, Lu Xiao released Pingchuan Xinyi’s neck.

After Pingchuan Xinyi landed, he began to cough violently, then started to laugh maniacally, his laughter eerily arrogant.

"I was going to play with you all a bit longer, but you don’t appreciate it!"

"So go die, all of you!"

"You despicable worms will one day become slaves of Japan!"

"Come out, all of you," Pingchuan Xinyi fiercely raised his hand, roaring loudly.

Figures rushed out from all directions, surrounding the group in just over ten seconds.

Seeing these people emerge, a hint of amusement flickered in Lu Xiao’s eyes.

After playing along with this little Japanese rascal for so long, it was finally paying off.

The only reason he had kept Pingchuan Xinyi alive until now was to make him call out all these people.

In fact, as soon as he got to Pingshan Village, Lu Xiao had detected these people hiding around.

But he didn’t strike; if he killed right away, there would be fish that slipped through the net.

Now it was much better; all were gathered together, ready to be wiped out completely.
