Chapter 116: Chapter 136: Playing _1

Longding Hotel, Chu Tianyu lounged lazily on the sofa, a beautiful woman nestled in his arms like a cat.

"Young Master Yu, are we going to accept their invitations today? These people are all lining up to meet you," said the woman.

Chu Tianyu sneered, "Let them wait. I’m not here to give them a chance to build relationships."

"Alright, I’ll decline them."

Chu Tianyu asked, "Did the woman from yesterday die?"

"I’m not sure, I’ll ask later."

There was a knock on the door, and the woman got up to open it. A middle-aged man wearing glasses entered, his face expressionless as if he was wearing a mask devoid of any emotions.

Chu Tianyu asked, "What’s the matter?"

The middle-aged man reported, "Young Master Yu, I just received a call from Tian Wanhai of the Tian Family. They can’t manage the matter we entrusted to them and asked us to find someone else."

Chu Tianyu frowned, "What’s going on? Didn’t they agree to it yesterday? How come they suddenly changed their minds? Are they playing with me?"

The middle-aged man shook his head, "I find it strange too, so I did some asking around. The result gave me quite a shock."

Chu Tianyu smiled, "Zhou Ping, you’re usually emotionless like a machine, yet you got startled? Tell me, what happened?"

Zhou Ping, the middle-aged man, answered, "Tian Ming and Tian Yunhe were rushed to the First City Hospital last night. Tian Ming’s legs were crippled, and he’ll probably need a wheelchair from now on. Tian Yunhe suffered internal injuries and will likely need one or two years to recover. Family head Tian Wanshan and his brother Tian Wanhe both died. The Tian Family is now under Tian Wanhai’s control."

Chu Tianyu’s face changed drastically, and he suddenly stood up, "Who did this?"

Zhou Ping shook his head, "I don’t know. The Tian family members are tight-lipped and unwilling to disclose anything."

Chu Tianyu’s face no longer looked relaxed, "Tian Wanshan and Tian Wanhe were not weak in strength, and Tian Jianfeng was even more powerful with age. Killing the two sons, Tian Wanshan and Tian Wanhe, and crippling the grandsons Tian Ming and Tian Yunhe was like breaking the backbone of the Tian Family. Didn’t Tian Jianfeng do anything?"

Zhou Ping shook his head, "I’m not sure about that."

Chu Tianyu’s expression grew serious, "Is it the Tian Family’s enemy, or someone helping Chu Jiaxue?"

Zhou Ping replied, "It’s probably the Tian Family’s enemy. Chu Jiaxue is alone, and she can’t even fight against a single company’s Qian Bueyi. How could she be a match for the Tian Family?"

Chu Tianyu frowned, "Zhao Yiheng and his son are dead, and the cause of their deaths is also a deep secret that the Zhao family members are unwilling to disclose. The Yutian Sect has even stepped in to settle all possible troubles. Now that the Tian family has just agreed to deal with Chu Jiaxue, they suddenly encounter this disaster. Could it be that there is a powerful figure secretly helping Chu Jiaxue?"

Zhou Ping analyzed, "The Tian family hasn’t taken any action against Chu Jiaxue yet, and only our people and the Tian family know about this matter. No matter who is secretly helping Chu Jiaxue, there’s no reason for them to know. Even if they did know, if they were powerful enough, a warning would have sufficed for the Tian family to back off. There would be no need to cripple the Tian family so directly. Moreover, with Tian Jianfeng present, someone killed his son and crippled his grandson right in front of him. This person must be incredibly powerful. How could Chu Jiaxue, an ordinary person, have such a powerful helper?"

Chu Tianyu thought for a moment and agreed, "It seems that the Tian family’s catastrophe has nothing to do with Chu Jiaxue’s matter. It’s just that their family has undergone such a drastic change and they are now unable to help us, which is why they are rejecting our request."

Zhou Ping nodded, "That should be the case... Young Master Yu, what should we do next?"

Chu Tianyu coldly snorted, "Without Zhang Butcher, does it mean we have to eat hairy pigs? There are so many people who want to work for us. Aren’t there three cultivator families in Pingjiang? Apart from the Tian Family, there are the Han and Lei families. Ziran, have you been in contact with the Han and Lei families?"

Personal assistant Gu Ziran replied, "The Lei family head has contacted us, saying he wants to invite you for dinner. The Han family hasn’t contacted."

Zhou Ping added, "Among the three cultivator families, the Tian family is the strongest, followed by the Lei family, with the Han family being the weakest. The Lei family deals in electrical appliances and communication businesses, while the Han family is in decline, relying on several large sand fields to supply construction sites throughout the city."

Chu Tianyu asked, "How about the strength of the cultivators?"

Zhou Ping answered, "In terms of population, the number of cultivators, and wealth, the Lei family leads the Han family in all aspects. However, the Han family has a Han Wei, who is very powerful and likely can defeat anyone from the Lei family."

Chu Tianyu curiously asked, "A woman?"

Zhou Ping nodded, "Yes, she is the sister of the Han family head Han Shizhu, and should be around 36 or 37 years old. She is very powerful and capable of fighting, being the strongest in the Han family."

"Thirty-six or thirty-seven years old?"

Chu Tianyu instantly lost interest and turned to Gu Ziran, "Contact the Lei family head, I’ll have a meal with him."

"Alright!"

Chu Tianyu sighed, "How can a woman who is incapable of trussing a chicken be so difficult to deal with? Hey, that woman Chu Jiaxue looks like a fairy. If it weren’t for her blood relation to me as my cousin, I wouldn’t need these people to take action. They’re really getting a bargain!"

After pausing, Chu Tianyu seemed to recall something, "Right, I heard that Chu Jiaxue has a cousin who is said to look quite similar to her. Zhou Ping, you help me check it out. If I can’t touch Chu Jiaxue, playing with her cousin shouldn’t be a problem."
