"You are the one who has cut sleeves and shared peaches!" Ling Tian reprimanded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Ling Jian's parents pa.s.sed away when he was young and he treats Ling Chen who has the same plight as him as his younger sister . As for Ling Chen, she is my…" talking about Ling Chen, Ling Tian's eyes were filled with warmth as he recalled the beautiful memories with her . I have not seen that la.s.s for such a long time already . I wonder if she is doing well . Will she cry when thinking about me? I really want to go back immediately…

"Oh…" Li Xue let out a long breath and her eyes formed a crescent shape, "No wonder! I was thinking too far . Thankfully you are not…" Thinking about her previous ridiculous thoughts, Li Xue felt extremely amused and began to burst out laughing uncontrollably, "Hahaha… how funny…"

Ling Jian looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression, not knowing what Li Xue was laughing about . Could it be that my expression was too strict and I scared her silly?

However, he did not know that this lady's strength should not be estimated . She definitely didn't place the First Pavilion Head, number one a.s.sa.s.sin in the world, Ling Jian, in her eyes!

Ling Tian could not help but also chuckle helplessly, "She is a crazy la.s.s . "

Ling Jian came to a realization and said, "No wonder . What a pity, what a pity . What a waste of her beautiful looks . "

"What do you mean about pity? I do not need you to evaluate my looks!" Li Xue stopped laughing and scolded fiercely . At this moment, she could already predict that if she wanted to follow by Ling Tian's side, this cold block of wood would definitely be the biggest obstruction to her . To think that he would even feel jealous on behalf of his younger sister…

He isn't Jing WuMing indeed! Because Jing WuMing would never behave in such a manner!

Ling Jian looked at her calmly and shut his eyes . Since his young n.o.ble said that she was a crazy la.s.s, it meant that she must definitely be a crazy la.s.s . What was the point of bickering with a crazy la.s.s?

Seeing the both of them bickering for no good reason, Ling Tian quickly changed the topic, "In your trip to the Yu Residence, you have seen the true strength of the Yu Family . What are your thoughts?"

Hearing Ling Tian's question, Ling Jian opened his eyes and thought for a moment before replying solemnly, "Powerful! They are powerful to the point I shuddered in fear . I think that I will never have the courage to enter the Yu Residence again!"

"They are powerful indeed," Ling Tian agreed, "I tried to overestimated the strength of the Yu Family but never expected that I actually underestimated them still . To think that they still have such a large strength being concealed . Thankfully, you unknowingly exposed their hidden strength in this trip of yours . If this trump card were to be revealed when our armies are facing each other and we do not make the proper preparations…"

"That's right . " Ling Jian said unblinkingly, "We must definitely remove this hidden strength of the Yu Family as early as possible . Young n.o.ble only need to give the command and I will lead my brothers to execute them all . Rest a.s.sured young n.o.ble, we will only take action after ensuring a foolproof plan!"

"Foolproof plan?! How would it be so simple?" Ling Tian smiled, "Nothing can be fully predicted in the world . If not for today, would you ever imagine the strength of the Yu Family to be so terrifying?! Presently, the Yu Family has already revealed twelve subdivision heads with each of them no weaker than Yu ManTian . Furthermore, behind every single one of them definitely lie a secret force . While we have not seen the force with our very eyes, they should be stronger than the ordinary Yu Family experts . It would definitely not be a simple task to get rid of them, not to mention getting rid of them without suffering any losses . "

"It should be a total of fourteen!" Ling Jian corrected . "There are still the two experts who concealed themselves last night despite the dire circ.u.mstances . However, their aura fluctuated multiple times last night as though they wanted to take action but did not take action in the end . According to this subordinate's senses, their strength is definitely no weaker than the twelve Yu Family experts . Furthermore, there are still Yu ManTian, Yu ManLou, and Yu ManTang . This means that there are at least seventeen XianTian experts in the Yu Family currently . However, this is only what we have seen so far and we wouldn't know how many experts are still being hidden . "

"There should be nineteen," Ling Tian corrected . "There are still two more people, the Soul brothers of the Yu Family are still outside trying to kill me . "

"Nineteen XianTian experts?!" Ling Tian and Ling Jian looked at each other with a solemn expression . In the eight Great Families, the weaker families may not even have a single XianTian expert, such as the NanGong, XiMen, and Yang Families . It can be seen just how rare a XianTian expert is . However, the Yu Family was actually able to produce nineteen XianTian experts! While it can't be said that there are as many XianTian experts as cabbages in the Yu Family, it wasn't too far off .

No wonder the Yu Family had such great ambitions! Probably no family with such a powerful force would be able to remain low profile .

"Ling Jian, you are the only one who truly understands the strength of both parties . Make an estimate, if the First Pavilion were to face the Yu Family now, what are the odds of victory? I want to hear the truth!" After pondering for a moment, Ling Tian asked .

While Ling Tian had taken action personally, he left immediately after saving Ling Jian and did not cross blows with the other Yu Family's experts . However, Ling Jian had exchanged blows with every single one of them and thus Ling Tian would say that Ling Jian was the only one who understood the strength of both parties .

"With the current strength of the First Pavilion, if we were to fight them face on, it would be our loss for sure!" Ling Jian said without hesitation, "But… if we were to a.s.sa.s.sinate them, things wouldn't be so simple…"

Ling Jian considered for a long while before giving an answer, "If we were to a.s.sa.s.sinate them, the final result would probably be to… exchange a life for a life, both parties peris.h.i.+ng together! In fact, our loss will probably be greater . " After saying that, Ling Jian's forehead was filled with cold sweat! While he had never blinked an eye when killing another individual, he was currently making a prediction about the lives of his brothers!

Ling Tian let out a refined smile and Ling Jian who was used to seeing this smile could not help but s.h.i.+ver slightly .

Every time his young n.o.ble gave such a smile, someone would be in trouble! Furthermore, he would definitely be in big, big trouble . The last time Ling Tian smiled as such, the victim was XiMen Qing…

"If that's the case, then it is best for us to find another plan . " Ling Tian chuckled, "Since we know that the chances for victory are slim, why should we allow our brothers to sacrifice for nothing? I have said this before: My future is meaningless without all of you beside me!"

Seeing Ling Tian's refined smile, Li Xue frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "What a crafty smile! You didn't seem to have this habit in the past!"

"Really? Am I very crafty?" Ling Tian rubbed his nose indifferently, "I am only trying to seriously discuss a plan with the both of you . In what way am I being crafty? I am obviously extremely calm . "

Ling Jian was excited to the point his face turned red and let out two coughs . However, his wounds began to open up from the coughs, and he could not help but clench his teeth in pain as he asked, "Does young n.o.ble have a plan yet? Young n.o.ble plans to…" As he said that, he looked at Ling Tian with a burning gaze .

"Of course I have my plans . Could it be that I am only taking a vacation in Bright Jade City?" Ling Tian stood up with his hands crossed and said with a profound tone, "The hidden strength of the Yu Family has always been my greatest concern . Apart from investigating the trump cards of the Yu Family, I was afraid that all of you will launch an operation towards the Yu Family despite not knowing their full strengths, resulting in unnecessary losses . Being able to save you back this time is already the biggest fortune out of our misfortune . However, you will probably need a good month or two before you recover fully from your injuries . After infiltrating the Yu Family alone and almost losing your life, I believe that you will know how to be obedient from now on?" Ling Tian chuckled .

"Young n.o.ble, please don't make a joke out of me . Young n.o.ble's words seemed to be incomplete? Could there be a third reason?" Ling Jian's eyes shone brightly . After following his young n.o.ble for more than ten years, Ling Jian was certain that his young n.o.ble was extremely confident . Since his young n.o.ble already had a plan, there was no need for him to worry at all . All he needed to do would be to follow the plan . Could it be that his young n.o.ble's plan would possibly go wrong? Ling Jian felt his heart ease up . While his trip to the Yu Residence seemed extremely rash, it solved the greatest worry in his young n.o.ble's heart and wasn't a wasted trip .

From the way Ling Tian spoke, even if Ling Jian hadn't taken action today, he would have done something similar in the future . Only when they truly understood the Yu Family's strength could they make further plans to rule the world . Thus, the extremely dangerous move of sneaking into the Yu Residence was something that could not be avoided . While Ling Jian suffered serious injuries from his trip, he was extremely satisfied with the trip . Thankfully, he was the one to visit the Yu Residence . If his young n.o.ble was to go without a proper understanding of the Yu family's strength and end up being surrounded, while they may not necessarily be able to capture his young n.o.ble, it would be a dereliction of his duty if his young n.o.ble was to suffer any injuries!

Ling Tian rubbed his chin and said with a deep gaze, "Since we cannot win with strength, we must win with tactics . Since we will suffer a huge loss if we take action personally, we must bring the trouble to another party . This young n.o.ble enjoys watching a dog-eat-dog show the most . "

"It wouldn't be easy right?" Ling Jian said with a defeated tone, "With the present strength the Shui Family has in Bright Jade City, it wouldn't be sufficient to provide any trouble for the Yu Family . If they were to break out into a fight, it would definitely be a one-sided ma.s.sacre . The remaining forces of the Shui Family in the city definitely don't have the ability to fight back . While young n.o.ble's plan is brilliant, it wouldn't be of much use before the Shui Family's reinforcements arrive . If we were to delay the plan by a few days, the situation will have changed again and we would have missed our opportunity…"

"Haha, Shui Family?" Ling Tian burst into laughter, "Ling Jian, do you think that only the Shui Family is capable of matching the Yu Family? Don't forget that there is the number one financial magnate in the continent concealing themselves extremely well and waiting for an opportunity! Hehe…"
