878: Chapter 838: Nangong Family’s Counterattack 878: Chapter 838: Nangong Family’s Counterattack At dusk, at the Nangong Residence, inside the Welcoming Garden.

Nangong Lingya had arranged five or six tables for a banquet to receive Huang Tianming’s arrival.

Passing through the main gate, Huang Tianming, accompanied by his entourage, entered the residence and after reaching the garden, he quickly walked towards Nangong Lingya.

“Miss Nangong, so eager to see me — has something significant happened?”

Nangong Lingya gazed at him with a cold expression and said, “Your disciple recruitment site was annihilated, are you aware of that?”

“Of course I am aware.

Since we know who the murderer is, we should directly confront him.

If we don’t know who it is, then we should first investigate and act only after we have pinpointed the murderer,”

Nangong Lingya sneered, “You make it sound so simple — kill the murderer and find the murderer are easy to say, but what about doing it?”

“Do you know who the murderer is?

Do you know his power?”

Huang Tianming clasped his hands together, “I do not know, but I know one thing — whoever provokes our Fiery Sword Sect, I will certainly dismember them completely!”

“Nonsense, you still want to dismember him completely?

You are dreaming!

The person has the strength of the Martial Saint Realm, even ten of you together wouldn’t stand a chance against him.

With such a power gap, you still think about dismemberment?”

Huang Tianming looked up at Nangong Lingya, his mouth agape with shock.

“What?

A Martial Saint Realm expert?

When did we offend a Martial Saint Realm expert?

Impossible, that shouldn’t be!”

He said, utterly perplexed.

His Fiery Sword Sect, even with the support of the Nangong family behind him, still dared not offend other forces recklessly in the outside world.

After reviewing past events, he simply could not figure out when he had offended a Martial Saint Realm expert.

This left him baffled.

“It has nothing to do with you.

It’s our Nangong family who offended that person.

He annihilated your people just to warn me; I understand his intentions,”

“Now, we need to strike back,”

Huang Tianming took a deep breath, feeling inevitable tension as he thought about facing a Martial Saint Realm expert, making his whole body tremble nervously.

“So…

What should we do?”

Nangong Lingya looked towards the banquet tables and said, “Let’s sit down and have a meal first; we haven’t caught up in a long time.”

“No problem.”

Huang Tianming sat next to Nangong Lingya, cautiously picking up his chopsticks and starting to serve himself some dishes.

“Actually, our enemy is Lu Chuan, his name is Lu Chuan, but he is not from the Lu family, so you can rest assured.

Even if we kill him, the Lu family won’t trouble us; they might even reward us.”

Huang Tianming nodded slightly, “Lu Chuan?

This name sounds unfamiliar.

I’ve never heard of him.

Is he a master hidden from the world?”

“He’s not really a hidden master; according to the investigations of my subordinates, he comes from the secular world,”

Huang Tianming immediately furrowed his brows, “The secular world?

That’s quite far!

Traveling all this way, he must really be here to accomplish something significant.”

“What did he come here for?

Traveling so far, he must be planning to do something big, right?”

Huang Tianming asked curiously.

“What he plans to do is simple, he intends to wipe out the Lu family’s power in Kunlun Domain.

Anyone who obstructs his path will be his enemy.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Tianming couldn’t help but laugh, “Miss Nangong, please don’t joke with me.

Who would dare to take on the biggest tyrant-type family in the Kunlun Domain as their enemy?”

“Moreover, he is someone from the secular world.

What kind of strong individual can the End of Sects and Magic Era produce?”

Nangong Lingya gazed intently at Huang Tianming and said, “That’s exactly why it proves his strength is formidable enough.

You said it yourself, the secular world is an End of Sects and Magic Era, a place that does not produce top-tier strong individuals or geniuses.”

“Yet, he still climbed his way up from the End of Sects and Magic Era, which completely surpasses our understanding.

Don’t you think he must have some skills?”

Huang Tianming thought seriously, and his expression turned grave immediately.

“Miss Nangong, now that you mention it, it does seem to be the case.

Looking at it this way, this guy is definitely not someone ordinary.

His strength surely exceeds our expectations.”

“Regardless, we cannot compromise with him.

Your task is simple.

Starting tomorrow, stay in Beihe City and begin assassinating people from the Dongfang family.

Kill anyone you see, apply enough pressure on them!”

Huang Tianming curiously asked, “That young man, is he staying at the Dongfang Residence now?”

“Exactly, he is hiding in the Dongfang Residence.

What you need to do next is kill all the people of the Dongfang Residence for me, spare no one except for Dongfang Cheng!”

“I just don’t believe that the Dongfang Residence can withstand such immense pressure and still keep this person!”

Nangong Lingya clenched her fists and pounded on the chair, then said, “I need to lay low for a while, can’t let that man find me.

If there’s anything, talk to my caretaker later, he will report the situation to me.”

After saying this, Nangong Lingya got up to leave.

Seeing this, Huang Tianming wanted to ask more, but seeing that Nangong Lingya was not in a good mood, he shut his mouth.

At that moment, an attendant came over and asked curiously, “Lord Sect Leader, this task seems quite daunting.”

“It’s just about killing some people from the Dongfang Residence, isn’t it?

The Dongfang family hasn’t invested much in Beihe City.

The strongest there, Dongfang Ming, is only a Martial Emperor Realm Grade 1.”

“Dealing with them will definitely be a breeze for us.”

The attendant anxiously said, “But what about this Lu Chuan?

What if we encounter him?

He is in the Martial Saint Realm, Lord Sect Leader, have you seen the elegance of the Martial Saint Realm?

Their speed is so fast that our mortal eyes can’t catch them, their Spiritual Energy inside is immense, as if they never run out!”

“Their strength, agility, martial arts skill, swordsmanship, and such, all far exceed the levels of Martial Emperor Realm!”

“If we run into that Lu Chuan, we might not even have a chance to escape!”

Huang Tianming dismissively said, “He may be strong, but he can’t fight alone against many.

He’s just one person; we are a group.

We can always find a loophole to kill the people of the Dongfang family.

Once the Dongfang family can’t bear the pressure and drives him out, our opportunity to act will be even greater.”

Huang Tianming looked at the food on the table and said, “Everybody eat well.

After we finish, let’s get to work and smoothly handle the task Miss Nangong entrusted to us!”

The members of the Fiery Sword Sect quickly finished their dinner and then prepared to go out and proceed with their task.

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan had dinner at the Dongfang Residence and was preparing to rest.

At the door of the guest room, Lu Chuan walked over under the guidance of Dongfang Cheng.

“Is there Lu family’s influence here in Beihe City?”

Lu Chuan asked.

Dongfang Cheng nodded slightly, “Of course.

The Lu family’s influence spreads throughout Kunlun Domain, and Beihe City is no exception.”
