Tycoon War God

”Ah!”

「Qin Zhu Courtyard.」

Qin Luoli suddenly let out a cry of alarm.

”The Wanta Building... was blown up?!” she exclaimed, pointing at the television. Her red lips were parted, and her pretty face was a mask of utter shock. ”Who could be so audacious as to...”

Lin Mu just smiled faintly and said nothing.

No matter how hard Qin Luoli wracked her brain, she would never guess that the culprit behind the bombing of the Wanta Building was sitting right beside her.

”No, I have to get to the company right away!” Qin Luoli said, standing up in a hurry. She turned back to give Lin Mu a quick kiss. ”I can’t spend the day with you. Something’s happened to the Wanta Group, and I need to attend a meeting.”

The Qin Corporation and Wanta Group had always been business rivals. Now that a disaster had befallen Wanta Group, the Qin Corporation had to be ready to make its move.

”Go on, be careful,” Lin Mu said, giving her a gentle pat.

He also had to deal with the aftermath and didn’t have time to accompany her.

Today, I will destroy the Fang Family!

As news of the Wanta Building’s bombing spread, all of River City, and even the neighboring city of Jiangling, was thrown into a state of shock. This was especially true for the local prominent families and major powers of River City.

What was the Wanta Group?

It was one of the most powerful enterprises in River City. Whether or not it was an official branch of the Fang Family, everyone knew the Jiangling Fang Family was backing it. Some were even aware that it was one of the Fang Family’s own assets.

Now that it had been destroyed, everyone knew that River City would soon be plunged into turmoil. Countless people grew restless with anxiety. Many speculated about who could have been so daring as to bomb the Wanta Group. Those who knew the truth were first shocked, then fell into a stunned silence.

However, before anyone could fully react, two more pieces of major news swept through River City.

Fang Ming, the young master of the River City Fang Family and Fang Cheng’s only son, had his limbs crippled. To make matters worse, the perpetrator demanded that the family apologize in person or face complete annihilation!

BOOM!

All of Jiangling erupted.

Who in the world was this brazen? This was taking courting death to a whole new level!

Doesn’t he know that the River City branch of the Fang Family is supported by several major powers?

The Wanta Group chairman’s younger sister was the wife of River City’s wealthiest man, Qiao Tianhao. Behind the River City Fang Family stood the prestigious Jiangling Fang Family. And the Jiangling Fang Family not only had strong ties with the Jiangling Martial Alliance Branch but also had a daughter married to a high-ranking official in the Military Department.

All of these were the pillars supporting the Fang Family of River City. Even if they didn’t act themselves, their reputation alone was enough to intimidate the common rabble. If someone truly dared to wipe out the River City Fang Family, the city’s wealthiest man, Qiao Tianhao, would be the first to step forward. He would be followed by the Jiangling Fang Family, the Martial Alliance, the Military Department, and more.

Amidst the shock, everyone was consumed by a burning curiosity. Who was this incredibly audacious individual, so arrogant and bold?

Countless powers dispatched their people to gather information, determined to uncover this person’s identity. In the end, the news they brought back left everyone astounded.

The man who had crippled Fang Ming was named Lin Mu, the chairman of Boheng Pharma. Although he was a chairman, his company was small, and Lin Mu was little more than a small-time boss.

This man… is he a fool? To provoke so many ruthless people! He’s a dead man!

That was the thought in everyone’s mind. In the eyes of giants like the Qiao and Fang families, wasn’t crushing a minor boss like him as easy as swatting a fly?

However, a few admired his spirit. He had dared to blow up the Wanta Group simply because his employee was bullied and treated unfairly. Such fierce protectiveness made him a good boss in their eyes. But to act in such a way also made him an absolute fool.

For a time, discussion buzzed throughout the Three Rivers Area of Jiangling.

「Jiangling! The Fang Family.」

In the grand hall, the butler addressed the Family Head, Fang Tang, who was watching television. The broadcast was reporting on the bombing of the Wanta Group building.

”Family Head, should we send someone over to River City?” the butler asked, his head lowered.

Hearing this, Fang Tang picked up the remote, switched off the television, and stated calmly, ”If he can’t even handle a small matter like this, then sending Fang Cheng to River City all those years ago was indeed a wise decision.” His voice was cold. ”The Fang Family does not nurture the useless!”

This statement served as the final verdict.

The butler nodded. ”And if... he can’t resolve the situation over there?”

Fang Tang glanced at the butler and let out a soft chuckle. ”No matter what mistakes Fang Cheng’s father made in the past, he is still a member of my Fang Family.”

His voice, calm yet filled with dominance, resonated as he started walking upstairs. ”If Fang Cheng dies, we will avenge him. Exterminate the clans of everyone involved!”

As if remembering something, Fang Tang added, ”When the time comes, handle both matters at once.”

”Yes, sir.”

The butler bowed, inwardly shocked at the Family Head’s ruthlessness. Fang Cheng could die, and the Family Head wouldn’t care in the slightest.

And there was more. Some time ago, a disciple sent to River City had met with an ”accident” there. Someone had even sent a message to Jiangling, warning the Fang Family. At the time, the Family Head had merely remarked, ”The Fang Family has many members. The death of one or two is insignificant. However, the family’s honor must be upheld. Find an opportunity to identify the culprit, and destroying his entire clan will suffice.”

For some unknown reason, the matter had been put on hold. Now, it was clear the Family Head had not forgotten.

The Fang Family was domineering, and with its deep connections and powerful background, no one dared to provoke them. As such, they had always considered themselves the supreme rulers of Jiangling. The minor forces in River City were nothing—they could be annihilated with a snap of the fingers.

Some people could be killed just as easily.

「The Qiao Family!」

BANG!

In the study, Qiao Tianhao was first stunned by the news, then erupted in a fit of rage. He smashed his favorite sculpture, a precious Pegasus Stepping on Clouds from Hanyang that he had spent a fortune on at auction. His assistant watched, heart pounding in his chest, knowing the chairman’s fury must be immense.

”Send someone to investigate immediately!” Qiao Tianhao commanded, before suddenly changing his mind. ”No, forget it. Send our people directly to the Fang Family’s residence. Didn’t that man say he was coming to settle accounts? Then we’ll wait for him there!”

”Yes, sir!” the assistant complied, but then asked hesitantly, ”Chairman, aren’t you going in person?”

Qiao Tianhao merely glanced at him, his expression cold and unreadable. The silence was answer enough.

The assistant immediately broke out in a cold sweat. ”I’ll make the arrangements right away,” he said quickly. The chairman’s meaning was crystal clear; if he had pressed the issue, his career would have been over. Now that he knew his boss intended to wait and see, the assistant understood exactly what to do.

「The Fang Family.」

All afternoon, Fang Cheng sat in the main hall, his gaze fixed on the entrance. He wanted to see with his own eyes if that man would truly dare to show up as he had claimed.

”Family Head, everything has been arranged,” the butler reported as he entered, his face a mask of cold fury. ”If that person dares to come, I guarantee he will never leave alive!”

Fang Cheng waved his hand dismissively. ”You may leave.”

Once the butler had gone, Fang Cheng turned to his daughter, Fang Fei. ”Fei’er, are you certain that ’he’ will really come?”

Fang Fei’s hands were tucked into her sleeves. Hidden within, a small red snake gently licked her skin, sending an occasional shiver through her body.

Hearing her father’s question, she gave a cold, arrogant smile. ”Dad, don’t worry. Since Master has already given me his word, he will definitely come.” A murderous glint flashed in her eyes. ”No matter who this man is, he is going to die!”
