Chapter 138 - 138: The Beginning of the Qin Family’s Complete Rise_l
No doubt, he hadn’t been idle during the time when Qin Changqing was busy making babies.
In the past two years, with the rewards from above, Jin Tianfeng had already broken through to Tier 10 of the Golden Elixir.
How could the Flying Dragon Riders lose when it’s ten against one?
Even with the Sword Intent, such a huge gap was not easily bridged.
Moreover, many of Red Mill’s people were hidden in Jinhe Tower. Once Han Zhi gave the order, where would Qin Changqing run to?
“Unless Mu Yuntao goes too, but Bai Liu sent news that Mu Yuntao has been recalled to the sect, and the remaining two Golden Elixir Realm elders are not worth worrying about.”
“Yes, that’s true.” Jin Tianfeng pondered slightly, “But what I’m afraid of is the
Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse behind him.”
Han Zhi smiled faintly: “City Lord, isn’t this an opportunity? They have a Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse, but don’t we also have one?”
“You mean…”
“No matter what Qin Changqing’s goal is, our only goal is to kill him! If he wants to negotiate with us, this is our chance to kill him. If not, it doesn’t matter. The people sent by the Marshal are ready. How much trouble can a single Nascent Soul Realm cause? We’ll make arrangements in advance and catch them unprepared, killing both Qin Changqing and that Nascent Soul
Realm elder! ”
“As long as Qin Changqing dies, the Qin family will be destroyed too. And how can the Lingxiao Sect become angry? If MO Jiuzhou really intervenes, we can also invite the Marshal over.”
Jin Tianfeng pondered for a moment: “Although this is true, given Qin
Changqing’s nature, how could he not have a backup plan?”
“City Lord, have you forgotten our trump card?” Han Zhi laughed, “Bai Liu is still by his side, and we know his every move.”
Jin Tianfeng was startled, and then laughed loudly: “Right, Bai Liu is still there.”
He was very relieved that he didn’t recall Bai Liu back after Duanjian Mountain.
“This time, I don’t believe that guy can have such good luck again!”
Jinhe Tower.
A very famous restaurant in Yinxu Prefecture.
Although it is called a restaurant, it is also a place of elegance.
Whether they are high-ranking officials or scholars, they would come here to exchange poems and discuss the great way of life whenever they have time.
Jinhe Tower is three stories high. The first floor is for ordinary guests. The second and third floors are for guests with special status, with corresponding better service quality.
From the quality of the girls serving to their attitudes, they were all carefully selected.
After all, they had to serve the distinguished guests, so they couldn’t afford a single mistake, or the entire Jinhe Tower would suffer.
Of course, Jinhe Tower was backed by the Red Mill.
If someone really caused trouble, it would definitely be resolved quietly in the end.
Night fell.
The Jinhe Tower today was lacking its usual bustle.
There were no bewitching girls waving silk handkerchiefs at the entrance inviting guests in.
“Huh? Is Jinhe Tower closed today?”
A scholar-like man walked up to the entrance and was stopped by the guards at the door.
“Today, Immortal Qin has booked the entire place.” “Immortal Qin? Which Immortal Qin?”
“Is there a second Immortal Qin in Yinxu Prefecture?”
A burly man in charge of the entrance scanned the crowd with a sharp gaze and said solemnly, “Everyone, please leave today and not offend Immortal Qin.”
Upon hearing this, those who wanted to go to Jinhe Tower shook their heads regretfully and left. Were there any other Immortal Qin in Yinxu Prefecture?
Wasn’t it the Immortal from that evil Qin family?
This evil was not to say that the Qin family was truly wicked, but rather, the Qin family had helped many poor people over the years, and their reputation was quite good.
It’s just that the marriage trend of the Qin family had made the male
population of Yinxu Prefecture very resentful.
Extremely resentful.
“You, call for more people… don’t let any blind guys come in and make a scene, ruining City Lord’s great event tonight.” The burly man ordered.Soon, a vacant area was cleared around Jinhe Tower.
About half an hour later, Qin Changqing rode in a carriage and arrived at the tower.
He led Bai Liu down from the carriage and stepped into this famous elegant hall in Yinxu Prefecture.
The madam of Jinhe Tower was a charming young woman, not very old, but quite steady in her dealings with people. Unlike ordinary women in the world of brothels, she was not vulgar at all. Instead, she looked like a well-educated young lady, her manners and speech well-cultured.
Later, Qin Changqing found that the elegance of Jinhe Tower was far better than he had imagined. What he thought was an ordinary brothel turned out to be a high-end club.
Before coming here, Bai Liu had already given him a general introduction of the place.
As an important place for Red Mill’s undercover operations in the secular world, Jinhe Tower’s main mission was to gather information, because the people who came here were rich and powerful, knowing far more than ordinary people.
Of course, that does not mean that Red Mill has no combat ability. On the contrary, those seemingly delicate ladies would not hesitate to attack you the moment they confirmed their target, taking advantage of your most relaxed moment.
“Like a female mantis,” Qin Changqing mused.
Soon, the madam ushered him and Bai Liu into an elegant room on the third floor.
This place had a semi-open layout and an excellent view, overlooking the bright lights of Yinxu Prefecture in the distance.
“Husband, Han Zhi has ordered Red Mill to kill you, but everyone here has been replaced by my people,” Bai Liu whispered. “However, there are still many Flame Armor Army soldiers lurking outside Jinhe Tower, as well as people sent by the marshal. Red Mill has not been able to locate them yet.” This time, Qin Changqing planned to deal with Jin Tianfeng.
So Bai Liu’s undercover work was coming to an end.
Of course, from now on, Qin Changqing would make sure Yinxu Prefecture was entirely under Qin family’s control, including the Red Mill.
With Bai Liu around, controlling the Red Mill would not be a problem.
As for those who would not submit, killing them was not a concern.
Meanwhile-
In a hidden spot outside Jinhe Tower-
“Sister Lingshuang, is this really okay? Won’t our husband be too hasty? Jin
Tianteng has been in control of Yinxu Prefecture tor many years, and he has a lot of resources under his command,” Murong Xue said worriedly.
Murong Family was well informed about Yinxu Prefecture’s situation. Beneath the City Lord were two powerful families of the seventh tier. Although the Gongsun Family was destroyed, the other family was still going strong. More importantly, killing Jin Tianfeng directly was equivalent to signaling war with the Dayan Dynasty.
Qin Changqing was valued by the Sect, but would he be able to cope with such a big upheaval?
Qin Lingshuang replied, “Don’t worry, elder brother knows what he’s doing.”
Not far away, Liu Siqi, Mu Ling, and other high-ranking wives from the Qin family had basically all arrived.
Tonight was the beginning of the Qin family’s rise to power.
Further away, Liu Shuisheng stared at Jinhe Tower with wide eyes, not even blinking despite his eyes beginning to ache.
“He’s crazy, Steward Qin really wants to kill Jin Tianfeng, this isn’t like the Gongsun family. Attacking Jin Tianfeng is like attacking Yinxu Prefecture. How dare he?”
Killing the City Lord and annihilating the Gongsun family were not on the same level.
“Why can’t he?” Zhou Qingshan muttered angrily, “There’s nothing this brat can’t do, if you put a Deifying Realm elder in front of him, he’d dare to attack Dongchi!”
“But what if the sect investigates later…”
“Enough, don’t worry about it. Do your job now, and leave the rest for later,” Zhou Qingshan said, seeing the situation clearly.
Moreover, he wasn’t concerned about any investigations.
Him? All of them?
They were not even qualified to be investigated by the Sect!
Not to mention Mu Yuntao the elder, there was Jin Tianxia the bodyguard, and MO Jiuzhou the master. To put it bluntly, they were not worthy!
Anyway, doing this job well would be rewarding in the long run.
If there were any subsequent repercussions, it would be up to the Sect to clean up the mess.. Why should they worry?
