Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

At this moment, Lu Tianxing did not choose to tell Bai Zhiqing about Bai Qiao Mountain’s abduction; he didn’t want to see Bai Zhiqing anxious.

”Hmm!”

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing’s face lit up with a happy smile. With this man by her side, she was the happiest woman in the world.

”Honey, don’t be happy too soon.”

Lu Tianxing suddenly spoke, his initially tender expression turning very serious, as he looked at Bai Zhiqing and said, ”But this time, because of your willfulness, it led to so many things. So, when we get home, I’m going to punish you severely, using Lu Family’s rules, to let you know that making mistakes comes with a price.”

Bai Zhiqing was initially taken aback by Lu Tianxing’s serious expression, her heart filled with apprehension, but upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s latter words, a blush flashed across her pretty face. Having been with Lu Tianxing for so long, how could she not know what Lu Tianxing meant by ”family rules.”

”Honey, let’s go home now.” Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Zhiqing’s blushing face and spoke again.

After hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Bai Zhiqing didn’t say anything, just nodded and followed closely behind Lu Tianxing like a newlywed wife, her face filled with shyness.

Just after Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing left, two figures suddenly appeared atop a tall tree, not far from the villa, gazing intently at the now ruined villa.

After quite a while, one of the men slowly spoke, ”Sima, it seems that the Third Young Master of Lu Family has improved quite a bit. Your wish to make him your rival is out of luck. If he progresses further, you may not be able to beat him.”

”What does it matter if I can’t beat him!”

The other man beside him spoke, ”But as for your Mu Family, you might have struck gold this time. If the Judge doesn’t die, your Mu Family’s status in China might be second only to the Lu Family.”

Judging from their conversation, it was clear who these two were. They were none other than Sima Lingyun and Mu Qingchuan.

Lu Tianxing raced all the way to Tianlai Villa, and Sima Lingyun closely followed. Along the way, he coincidentally met Mu Qingchuan, who had heard the news and was heading to Tianlai Villa. The two went together, and when Lu Tianxing and Tang Qingyun were in combat, they had already arrived, just hidden in the shadows, only appearing after Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing left.

Mu Qingchuan, hearing Sima Lingyun’s words, showed no change in his gaze and calmly said, ”Sima, aren’t you worried about anything else? Lu Tianxing killed Tang Qingyun this time, which may have directly angered the Tang Family. The death of a family heir may not sit well with them. If the Tang Family steps out of Shu now, to fight the Lu Family to the death, the whole of China could fall into chaos, and the Yanhuang Group might not be able to suppress it.”

”Don’t worry, they can’t cause chaos.” Sima Lingyun said calmly after hearing Tang Qingyun.

”Can’t cause chaos?”

Mu Qingchuan frowned slightly, ”Sima, what do you mean by that?”

”The person who died wasn’t even Tang Qingyun, just a substitute, really. The Tang Family won’t risk everything for the death of a substitute, let alone choose to step out of Shu.” Sima Lingyun said calmly.

”Substitute?”

Mu Qingchuan, upon hearing Sima Lingyun’s words, couldn’t help but show a hint of confusion, not understanding what Sima Lingyun meant.

”Indeed, a substitute.”

Sima Lingyun nodded and said, ”Although this Tang Qingyun’s strength was terrifying, and he practiced the Tang Family’s ultimate Xuantian Scripture, did you notice? When this Tang Qingyun fought the Judge, he always used a sword, even in life-or-death moments, never deploying any hidden weapons. Doesn’t this seem unreasonable to you?”

”Moreover, our investigation uncovered that Tang Qingyun brought with him the Tang Family’s unique ”Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle,” capable of causing even the Late Stage of Mythical to lament. Yet, Tang Qingyun never used it until his death. Isn’t that strange? Despite its precious nature, compared to one’s life, which is weightier, doesn’t need much thought.”

”And most importantly, did you notice the person who was fleeing just now?”

”I did, what’s the matter?” Mu Qingchuan asked with a hint of puzzlement.

”He is Tang Qingyun’s bodyguard, or shall I say, his Protector.”

Sima Lingyun took a deep breath and said, ”In the Tang Family, each outstanding genius is accompanied by a Protector, with terrifying and extraordinary strength, instilled with loyalty to the Tang Family since childhood, akin to a servant. The saying ’To command death upon a minister; the minister can’t refuse death’ applies to such people. If the real Tang Qingyun had died, would his Protector not go all-out?”

Sima Lingyun’s face glowed with light, his gaze like a torch.

”Perhaps he thought he wasn’t an opponent and chose to avoid pointless sacrifice by fleeing; after all, you witnessed the terrifying strength of the black-clad individual standing next to Bai Zhiqing earlier.” Mu Qingchuan speculated, actually, when they appeared, the black-clad individual had noticed them and swept his gaze across their hidden location at first glance. Though it seemed ordinary, to Sima Lingyun and Mu Qingchuan, that gaze transformed into an unassailable divine presence, leaving them with no thought of resistance, just like mortals before gods.”

”The reason you gave is highly unlikely.”

Sima Lingyun shook his head and said, ”Young Master Mu, you’re underestimating the brainwashing prowess of the Tang Family. If the person killed by the Judge really was Tang Qingyun, then as the Protector, if the individual he was protecting died, he wouldn’t retreat before knives and fire either, attacking as needed, even at the cost of death. But now that Tang Qingyun is dead, the Protector ran away, which is enough proof that the Tang Qingyun who died was fake, not the real Tang Qingyun.”
