Sun Tianbiao had three objectives he intended to accomplish in Qingshui City. Firstly, find the whereabouts of the Sun Family’s men. Secondly, find Ling Yun and kill him! Finally, search for news about the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor’s Book.
As for the Zhuang Family and their engagement, those meant nothing to Sun Tianbiao.
There was no way Sun Tianbiao would have made a trip to Qingshui City just to deal with Zhuang Tiande, a rich merchant in Qingshui City.
Sun Tianbiao already prepared himself for the scenario where Niu Fenjiao and the Sun Family’s men were dead.
Sun Tianbiao believed that Ling Yun disappeared and went into hiding on that weekend night because he was frightened. Hence, he set up many ploys to lure Ling Yun out.
However, those two matters weren’t the priority. To Sun Tianbiao and the experts that he had brought, the most important matter was to find the whereabouts of the Emperor Brush and Earth Emperor’s Book!
That was also what Ling Yun was most concerned about. He wasn’t afraid of the Sun Family discovering that he was the one who had killed the Sun Family’s men or them choosing taking revenge. He was most concerned about someone finding out that he had the Emperor Brush in his possession!
Other than Ling Yun’s most trusted allies, such as Dugu Mo, Miao Xiaomiao, and Tang Tianhao, he wiped all the others’ memory of the Emperor Brush!
Zhuang Meifeng laughed dryly as she reclined elegantly on her own sofa. With a negotiating tone, she said, “As long as you can promise that your Sun Family will never bother the Zhuang Family ever again, I’ll tell you everything that happened that night.”
Seeing Zhuang Meifeng’s composure, Sun Tianbiao could only nod and agree. “Fine, I’ll promise you. Tell me what happened that night!”
Zhuang Meifeng smiled leisurely as she replied, “I hope you keep your word.”
Sun Tianbiao replied faintly, “I, Sun Tianbiao, from the Sun Family, would never break such an insignificant promise to a little girl like you.”
Zhuang Meifeng knew this as well. The very fact that she was able to make it this far was already a huge surprise to her. Even if Sun Tianbiao went back on his promise, there was no way she could stop him with her abilities.
She was also very confused. She didn’t expect Sun Tianbiao to be so agreeable toward her demands. He had actually given her multiple opportunities to do so while they negotiated on equal grounds!
Zhuang Meifeng would have never imagined that Sun Tianbiao believed that there was an imaginary enemy backing her up. Right now, she was just going with the flow!
Without time to think about it any further, she didn’t make other requests and began to execute the plan that she and Xiao Meimei had talked about. She said, “I think your Sun Family must already know about the Assassins Organization in China, correct? He Xinyan is from that organization, and they have been planning an attack on the Sun Family!”
“What! He Xinyan? Assassins Organization? This…” Hearing this, Sun Tianbiao’s brow furrowed tightly!
Behind Sun Tianbiao, the Xiantian Realm experts from the Tranquil Sect, Shaolin Temple, and Maoshan Sect couldn’t help but look at each other as their expressions changed simultaneously!
…
Ling Yun disappeared out of the blue. Obviously, the two highly intelligent women, Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei, wouldn’t just sit still and wait at home. That was especially so after the Sun Family reached Qingshui City. They racked their brains to come up with a countermeasure.
Many bystanders’ memories had been wiped that night, but Zhuang Meifeng’s and Xiao Meimei’s memories were not. Together with Xiao Meimei’s careful consideration, the two of them ultimately came up with a countermeasure and chose to implement their plan separately.
Both of them knew that this plan would cost a huge price. In fact, because of a huge loophole in the plan, there was a high chance that it wouldn’t succeed. However, in order to save Zhuang Meifeng’s family, the plan of action they decided was to buy time and await Ling Yun’s return.
The crux of this plan was the Assassins Organization!
This was because after Ling Yun had killed Deepa on Thursday night, Xiao Meimei had a conversation with Ling Yun at the rental house. She had clear memories of that.
Back then, Ling Yun asked Xiao Meimei how the Assassins Organization used their communication devices and whether they would be able to make use of it to disguise themselves as assassins from the organization. From there, they could lure out the people that wanted to assassinate them.
While they were discussing this, Xiao Meimei had warned Ling Yun that if they did that, they would bring out even higher-ranked assassins from the Assassins Organization. She had asked him if he would be afraid of that. At the time, Ling Yun gave a proud answer. “If they do, we’ll just fight them off! Let them all come at me!”
This left a deep impression on Xiao Meimei. So, she began to formulate a plan with the Assassins Organization at its core.
On that night, three assassins from the Assassins Organization had come for Ling Yun. It was unrelated to the Sun Family, but out of the four great experts from the Sun Family, one of them had been from the Assassins Organization!
That person was He Xinyan, who was at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Eight!
When Ling Yun killed He Xinyan, he had said to everyone that He Xinyan was from the Assassins Organization!
While Ling Yun was preparing to go to the crater that weekend, he was very busy. He only managed to make a trip to the rental house on that Sunday afternoon to tell Zhuang Meifeng and Xiao Meimei to return to Qingshui Wharf’s Mansion Number Nine. He didn’t have time to explicitly tell the two what had happened on Friday night.
When Zhuang Meifeng returned to the Zhuang residence, she arrived much later than Xiao Meimei. When she arrived, she had happened to hear Niu Fenjiao announce the cancellation of the engagement. During the time she ran away from the Zhuang Family, she didn’t know what had happened in the Zhuang Family.
However, Xiao Meimei knew better than anyone else about the power and secrecy of the Assassins Organization!
If they wanted to find a scapegoat for Ling Yun, Xiao Meimei could only make use of the Assassins Organization!

With that, since the Zhuang Family were all regular people, they didn’t have any power to stop what had happened. Naturally, the Sun Family wouldn’t be able to push the blame on the Zhuang Family either.
Furthermore, if they redirected the blame where the Assassins Organization had killed the Sun Family, then the Sun Family’s biggest enemy would become the Assassins Organization and not Ling Yun!
Even though Ling Yun couldn’t avoid his responsibility in the matter completely, making this claim would definitely divert Sun Tianbiao’s attention!
This would kill two birds with one stone!
While the two wrestled with one another, Ling Yun would benefit! This was originally a plan that Ling Yun had thought up himself, but he didn’t expect the two intelligent women by his side to use it while he wasn’t around!
This would definitely buy some time for Ling Yun. Once they contacted Ling Yun, the two beauties believed that he would have enough wit and ability to resolve all the problems!
It was because his glowing golden body that was protected by the nine dragons dispersed an emperor’s aura. Ling Yun was simply too powerful!
…
“The Assassins Organization? You’re saying that on that night, people from the Assassins Organization showed up as well? Why would they attack our Sun Family?” Sun Tianbiao’s brows furrowed tightly as he stared at Zhuang Meifeng and questioned. He seemed to be murmuring to himself at the same time.
Seeing Zhuang Meifeng’s composure, Sun Tianbiao couldn’t help but believe her words. It was because an ordinary person wouldn’t have known about the existence of the Assassins Organization. Anyone who knew would have already died!
Smiling plainly, Zhuang Meifeng replied, “That’s right, the Assassins Organization was there!”
“I admit, in order to save me and protect his own life, Ling Yun killed several regular experts from the Sun Family. But that was only self-defense. Back then, his only plan was to make your wife withdraw the engagement by writing this letter!”
As she said this, Zhuang Meifeng lifted her beautiful hands and extended her index finger to point at the letter. Continuing, she added, “This letter was indeed written after your wife called you. At the time, it was already getting late. After the engagement was canceled, both sides no longer had any energy to continue fighting, so we prepared to leave. This was when it happened!”
“Three strong fighters from the Assassins Organization appeared at the house. Together with that He Xinyan from your Sun Family, they began to kill the people from the Sun Family without saying a word!”
“At the time, Priest Compassionless, Priestess Heartless, and Head Priest Liu Deming were still around. They started to fight, and the whole place became a mess…”
“When we saw that, we were at a loss and couldn’t tell who was fighting. We only knew that someone got injured quickly. But after a while, something else happened!”
“I heard someone shout loudly while another person appeared. After that, my vision turned black, and I can’t remember anything after that…”
The narration of events Zhuang Meifeng had just told was amazing. With her words, the truth seemed to sound like a lie, and the lie sounded like the truth!
Xiao Meimei knew that attempting to lie to Sun Tianbiao about what happened before that call would be useless, so she told Zhuang Meifeng to tell the story as it was.
However, even if that were the case, Zhuang Meifeng continued to push all of the blame onto the Sun Family.
However, everything Zhuang Meifeng talked about after the letter was written was fake. Originally, Ling Yun had the upper-hand. After killing Priest Compassionless and Head Priest Liu Deming, he killed all three assassins from the Assassins Organization with his ability-surge.
However, with her words, she extracted Ling Yun from the entire picture, pretending as if He Xinyan was the one who betrayed them and caused a fight to break out between the Sun Family’s men and the Assassins Organization…
Furthermore, in the mix of her truths and lies, the greatest addition was how she heard “yet another person appear” and how her “vision turned black”.
It had already been messy at the start, and with the arrival of another person, the situation had become more chaotic. Right after that, Zhuang Meifeng fainted, so she would have had no clue where the Sun Family’s men were and what happened to the assassins from the Assassins Organization!
When Zhuang Meifeng explained what happened, Sun Tianbiao used his sharp gaze to stare at Zhuang Meifeng’s eyes as he thought deeply in his heart.
Within the seven families in the city, there was a complicated political battle brewing amongst them. On the surface, it seemed to be something they could ignore as everyone maintained a delicate balance for peace.
The Sun Family’s power as an entity was neither strong nor weak. They ranked fourth out of the seven families. Not only were they a family that hoped to fight their way to get a spot in the top three, but they were also a target for backstabbing. Their position amongst the families was precarious indeed.
He Xinyan excelled in Qinggong and assassination. Could it be that it was really the Assassins Organization that did it? Why did they send spies to the Sun Family? Which family was the one behind this scheme?
Was it the Long Family? The Chen Family? Perhaps the Ling Family?
The Chen Family had been desperately hoping to rise in rankings. Without concern for their methods, they were involved with the East Asian Tokugawa Clan as well. They were likely to be the culprit…
Even so, this didn’t seem right. Even if the Chen Family really wanted to attack the Sun Family, there would be no way they would have done it in such a roundabout way by getting the Assassins Organization involved. Furthermore, they used them just to attack Niu Fenjiao and Sun Xing…
Sun Tianbiao had multiple women by his side. Purely by counting his sons, he had at least seven. If they wanted to capture a powerless wife and a useless son to put him in distress, that was simply ridiculous.
“Is what you said really true?”
Sun Tianbiao was an old, sly fox. Even though Zhuang Meifeng had executed the plan flawlessly, after thinking for a while, he refused to believe it.
However, Zhuang Meifeng’s purpose wasn’t to let him believe it. As long as Sun Tianbiao began to second-guess himself, she had succeeded!
Staring straight into Sun Tianbiao’s eyes coldly, Zhuang Meifeng’s beautiful eyes were alluring. With a steely gaze, she said, “Anyway, this is all I know. It’s up to you whether to believe it!”
