Celestial Night Emperor

Chapter 206: Chapter 206: For the Sake of That Belief

The entire conversation between Luo Zhonghai and Luo Tianying was recorded.

By now, the villa’s floor was covered in blood.

Luo Zhonghai had begun torturing Luo Tianying directly!

”Luo Tianying, stop holding out. Just a short while ago, our Patriarch convened a meeting with all the Elders and officially decided that Young Master Qilin will be the family heir!”

Luo Zhonghai wiped his hands. They were covered in Luo Tianying’s blood.

”But back then, out of guilt toward your mother, the Patriarch transferred 40% of the family fund into your name. Young Master Qilin has spoken. Those funds are his to inherit. You’d better give us the password and cooperate with us to complete the transfer!”

SMACK.

A transfer agreement was thrown down.

”And another thing. Sign this document, and I’ll give you a quick death. I’ll even arrange for you to meet your mother in the afterlife. Isn’t that a wonderful thing?”

Luo Tianying looked up and laughed.

A mouthful of blood coughed out with his laughter.

”In all my years, I, Luo Tianying, haven’t done a single decent thing. I even screwed up the marriage alliance with the Ye Family. I’ve wasted my life on pleasure, betrayed my friends, and sold out my honor! But!”

Luo Tianying spat a mouthful of bloody spittle onto Luo Zhonghai’s face. ”The family fund was the last gift my mother left me! Her inheritance is in that fund! There are some things I, Luo Tianying, will not sell!”

Some things are not for sale!

Enraged, Luo Zhonghai raised his foot and kicked Luo Tianying viciously in the head.

”You’ve already been abandoned, you piece of trash! Why are you playing the tough guy now? Continue the torture!”

Inside the villa, low, agonized screams echoed continuously.

But to Luo Zhonghai’s surprise, the once worthless playboy, Luo Tianying, actually held on!

Across the way, in the garden.

Qin Tianxuan had even put down his chopsticks, watching the scene on the monitor with surprise.

Prince reported from the side, ”We’ve confirmed it. Luo Tianying does indeed control 40% of the family fund! This is a loss the Luo Family cannot afford. They’re forcing him to sign the document and relinquish that 40%!”

To evade regulations, all of the Luo Family’s business was managed through a family fund established overseas.

This was a common tactic used by wealthy and powerful families.

The fund was their lifeline!

Venerable Yuan, the head of the Intelligence Hall, also handed a document to Qin Tianxuan, who was eating. ”I never would have guessed this Luo Tianying had some backbone. They’ve been at it for half an hour, used every kind of torture, and still, Luo Tianying won’t yield.”

A glint flashed in Qin Tianxuan’s eyes as he shook his head gently. ”You’re wrong. This isn’t about the money in the fund. It’s about a son’s devotion to his mother’s memory.”

A dandy like Luo Tianying could endure this long only because that fund was what his mother had left him.

He would never sell out this last shred of genuine love in his life!

It was a mother’s unconditional love for her son!

Qin Tianxuan shot to his feet and ordered without hesitation, ”Change of plans. We’re moving in directly. Rescue Luo Tianying!”

”Huh?”

Prince and the others were astonished. ”Sir, that’s Luo Tianying. He’s a good-for-nothing idiot. Why save him?”

Qin Tianxuan’s gaze was firm. ”Because he can still be saved! At the very least, he still has faith in his heart—faith in his mother.”

At that moment, Qin Tianxuan’s thoughts returned to that stormy night.

The scene of his mother leading him by the hand, lost and bewildered in the pouring rain after being driven out of the Qin Family.

It was because of this experience that Qin Tianxuan understood Luo Tianying’s current situation so well.

’I, too, was once lost and bewildered!’

’I, too, once shouldered that heavy burden of hatred.’

’The only difference is that I didn’t give up on myself.’

’And as for you, Luo Tianying, I will give you another chance to save yourself!’

Qin Tianxuan gestured again. ”Extract Luo Tianying!”

Inside the villa, Luo Tianying was on the verge of death.

Luo Zhonghai clutched his head, looking at the men behind him. ”Think of something else! I have to make this quick. The Night Emperor is in Jinling, so I can’t stay here for long!”

If one were to name Young Master Qilin’s greatest rival right now, it wouldn’t actually be that small faction within the family, but the renowned and invincible Night Emperor!

That was what worried Luo Zhonghai the most.

Just as he said this, a series of muffled grunts suddenly came from outside.

All of his men stationed around the villa had been taken down.

Through the window, he saw a group of mysterious guards appear, each one displaying astonishing skill!

Like a ferocious tide, they swept through the villa in an instant!

’This is bad!’

’Judging by their methods and movements, could they be the Night Emperor’s men?’

Luo Zhonghai didn’t dare hesitate. He scrambled out of the room and made a break for the villa’s back garden.

The garden was spacious and concealed a helipad.

A helicopter, prepared in advance, was waiting there.

Luo Zhonghai finally boarded the helicopter, but the villa behind him had fallen completely silent.

”It’s the Night Emperor’s men! The most elite fighters from the Martial Venerable Hall! Damn my luck, we were being watched the whole time!”

Luo Zhonghai roared, ”Get this thing in the air! Get out of Jinling, now!”

The helicopter pilot just sat there, dazed and motionless.

Luo Zhonghai slapped him in anger. ”Are you fucking deaf?”

But the pilot’s head simply lolled to the side as he slumped over lifelessly.

”Ah!”

Luo Zhonghai jumped in fright.

SLASH! The cabin door was sliced open by a sharp dagger.

A creaking, tearing sound followed.

Luo Zhonghai turned his head in terror and saw a group of people in black masks standing outside.

”Target confirmed. It’s Luo Zhonghai!”

”Are you going to come down on your own? Or should I cripple your arms and legs first, then carry you down?”

These were the Death Warriors from the Dark Prison Hall, the most mysterious of the Night Emperor’s subordinates!

Luo Zhonghai cowered in the cabin in terror, and then his world went black...

In the garden opposite the Luo Family’s villa, Qin Tianxuan was calmly sipping his tea.

A subordinate from the Celestial Medicine Hall came to report, ”Luo Tianying has been rescued. After emergency treatment, we’ve given him a painkiller, and he has regained consciousness.”

”Bring him here,” Qin Tianxuan said, slowly sitting down.

A stretcher was brought over. Luo Tianying was propped up on it, his mind clear.

In truth, his injuries were mostly superficial. Because Luo Zhonghai needed his password, he hadn’t dared to use lethal force.

But Luo Tianying was still completely bewildered.

’Who... who saved me?’

’These people’s methods are incredible. They’re like an army from the Battle Department, sweeping through Luo Zhonghai’s villa just like that.’

He struggled to lift his head and finally saw his savior—but it was someone he never would have expected.

”Ah! You’re the one who saved me?” Upon seeing Qin Tianxuan, Luo Tianying was in utter disbelief, completely stunned.
