Chapter 2333 - 2306: I Will Ensure the Mu Family Is Exterminated

Lin Yafei sat there, taking in the looks from Sima Lingyun, Mu Qingchuan, Han Zifeng and the others, then spoke again: "Of course, asking you to help me isn’t for nothing. I’ll give you enough reward for making a move. You can completely rest assured on that."

"Reward?"

After hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Mu Qingchuan’s face showed a trace of disdainful smile. "Miss Lin, it seems you’ve underestimated the foundations of us aristocratic families in Beijing. I won’t deny your Yama Palace is doing spectacularly in Beijing, but if we wanted to wipe you out, it might not be that hard. The only reason no one dares touch you is the Lu Family, not you. Do you really think the reward you’re offering is something we’d even look at?"

Mu Qingchuan’s words could be said to be utterly blunt, but there wasn’t a single thing wrong in them.

The reason Yama Palace has been able to develop to this level actually stems from many factors, but the biggest one is that behind Yama Palace stands Lu Tianxing, and Lu Tianxing is a man of the Lu Family. If you touch Lin Yafei, it’s equivalent to going against Lu Tianxing, which will inevitably drag in the Lu Family. No force is willing to offend the Lu Family for no reason, so naturally they’ve simply let things be, allowing Yama Palace to grow stronger.

For Lin Yafei to say this kind of thing now is indeed somewhat laughable, like a pauper telling a tycoon, "If you help me get this done, I’ll pay you a reward," which is truly ridiculous.

Given how things are developing, if it were anyone else hearing Mu Qingchuan’s words, they would definitely fly into a shame-fueled rage and curse him out. But when Lin Yafei heard him, her expression didn’t change much at all; she merely spoke faintly: "Young Master Mu, aren’t your words a bit far-fetched? My man’s background—does that not count as my background? I’m using my man’s power to raise my own force. What’s so wrong with that?"

At this point, Lin Yafei didn’t continue tangling over this matter, but instead went on: "Besides, I believe that the reward I’m offering this time is something your Mu Family definitely won’t be able to turn down."

"Is that so?"

Mu Qingchuan let out a cold laugh, showing his disdain, but inside he had already begun to ponder what reward Lin Yafei intended to pay the Mu Family this time, and on what basis she was so certain the Mu Family would be unable to refuse.

Although Mu Qingchuan hadn’t dealt with Lin Yafei before, ever since Yama Palace entered Beijing, her way of doing things had already made itself clear. Lin Yafei absolutely wasn’t the type to speak without a target. Inviting them here this time and saying all this was enough to prove she had chips in hand that could move them.

After hearing Mu Qingchuan’s cold laugh, Lin Yafei didn’t speak immediately. She pondered for a moment, then slowly opened her mouth: "Young Master Mu, tell me—if I hand over all of Yama Palace’s power in Beijing to your Mu Family, would that reward be enough to move the Mu Family?"

"What did you say?"

When Mu Qingchuan heard Lin Yafei’s words, his expression changed at once, a trace of shock appearing on his face. He had never imagined Lin Yafei would actually say such a thing to him.

You have to know that Yama Palace now is already a colossal existence in Beijing. Whether in business or in influence, it’s starting to march toward top family status. Countless people are eyeing Yama Palace like a big piece of fat meat, all hoping to swallow it whole. Yet right now Lin Yafei actually intends to hand this piece of fat meat over to the Mu Family—how could Mu Qingchuan not be stunned?

"Miss Lin, are you joking with me?" Mu Qingchuan took a deep breath, suppressing the surging feelings in his heart, and looked at Lin Yafei as he spoke.

"Young Master Mu, do you think I’d joke with you at a time like this?" Lin Yafei looked at Mu Qingchuan and spoke with unquestionable certainty.

"Why should I believe you?"

"Because of the three words ’Lin Yafei.’ Because Lin Yafei is Lu Tianxing’s woman." Lin Yafei said proudly, her face full of arrogance.

After hearing this, Mu Qingchuan didn’t speak. Instead, he fell into deep thought for a long while before finally saying, "What do you want me to do?"

Mu Qingchuan was not at all dazzled by this giant cake; on the contrary, he grew even more clear-headed, because he knew full well there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. For Lin Yafei to throw out such a big piece of fat meat, there was no way it would come without conditions.

"My request is very simple. Tomorrow, when my man steps into the Mu Family to take your younger sister away, I want you to do everything you can to protect my man. You must not let any accident befall him." Lin Yafei spoke heavily. The Mu Family tomorrow would be a dragon’s pool and a tiger’s den; she had to do everything in her power to prepare, to clear away some unnecessary obstacles for Lu Tianxing.

After hearing this, Mu Qingchuan was silent for a moment, then nodded and said: "Alright, I’ll agree to that. When Lu Tianxing leaves the Mu Family, I can do my best to ensure the Mu Family doesn’t intervene in this matter."

This was basically in line with what he had discussed with Mr. Mu. Lu Tianxing might have an accident, but absolutely not within the Mu Family grounds.

Upon hearing Mu Qingchuan’s words, Lin Yafei spoke again: "And one more thing: if my man encounters danger inside the Mu Family, your Mu Family must make a move to help him, no matter what—his safety has to be guaranteed."

"That’s impossible."

Mu Qingchuan rejected her without even thinking: "The fact that our Mu Family is willing to let him walk away is already an extraordinary act of mercy. Besides, do you even know how many people are targeting him this time, how many experts? To save him, to throw the Mu Family into crisis—that’s absolutely impossible..."

"Impossible? Hahahaha..."

Hearing this, Lin Yafei burst into uninhibited laughter. Her beautiful eyes fell on Mu Qingchuan, her tone laced with icy sharpness and killing intent: "If my man dies in your Mu Family, I can promise you this—from that day on, I’ll see to it that your Mu Family lives forever in fear and despair. I’ll make sure your Mu Family’s line is cut off, no descendants left alive."

After hearing Lin Yafei’s words, Mu Qingchuan was so enraged he laughed. How many years had it been—how many years since anyone dared speak to the Mu Family in this tone?

"Miss Lin, don’t you think you’re being far too arrogant? Do you really think you can pull that off...?"

"I think I can pull that off."

Lin Yafei looked at Mu Qingchuan with an icy expression, her face full of chill as she said, "If my man dies in your Mu Family, I will liquidate all of Yama Palace’s power and use every cent from that liquidation to post bounties on the head of every single member of your Mu Family..."
