Chapter 680 - 676: Huang Family’s Reaction (2nd Update)
While Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing were indulging in each other’s company at the Peninsula Hotel, the entire Xiangjiang was boiling over with a piece of news that everyone was talking about: the influential Peng Family of Xiangjiang had been annihilated. They were exterminated, blood-washed to the last man, including their bodyguards—no one survived.
This news swept through Xiangjiang like autumn leaves in the breeze, rendering everyone silent and chilled to the bone, especially with the shocking explosion in the middle of the night and the fire that could be seen throughout the entire Xiangjiang, sending shivers down countless spines.
If it were just these events, it would instill fear in them, but what truly terrifying was the identity of the culprit responsible for the complete elimination of the Peng Family.
Because they couldn’t find out who it was that eradicated the Peng Family. All the information had been wiped clean, even the various video materials were completely deleted. However, they still got some information—that the attack on the Peng Family involved not only the person who carried out the annihilation but the Huang Family as well, and more likely than not, the Huang Family was just playing a subordinate role, in other words, they were merely pawns.
The reason being, even though the Peng Family was wiped out, the Huang Family didn’t take over their power; they merely held it in their hands to prevent others from interfering. Beyond that, there was no other movement, which clearly showed that the person who eradicated the Peng Family was very powerful, so much so that even the Huang Family was afraid to claim the power for themselves.
Even the Huang Family dared not offend this mysterious force that had wiped out the Peng Family, what more the others? Various forces began to withdraw their own people, no longer daring to investigate who was behind the annihilation of the Peng Family, fearing to provoke this mysterious enemy. After all, they didn’t have much to do with the Peng Family, and there was no need to offend someone over the Peng Family that they couldn’t afford to mess with.
At this time, in the backyard of the Huang Family.
Huang Yuanzheng stood respectfully, reporting to Huang Zhengde, "Dad, the Peng Family has been erased, including Peng Tianhu and Peng Tianbao; no one from the Peng Family is alive. There was also a massive explosion at the scene. After investigation, it seems that Peng Tianhu, cornered, tried to take Lu Tianxing with him. But unfortunately for him, Lu Tianxing’s strength was beyond his imagination. Lu Tianxing left the villa just a moment before the explosion."
"Furthermore, we investigated and found that the Peng Family had hired a substantial number of mercenaries in the underground market yesterday and purchased a large amount of special-characteristic bullets. However, according to those who went to protect Bai Zhiqing last night, when Lu Tianxing returned, he was unharmed, not even his clothes were damaged. From this, we can deduce that Lu Tianxing’s strength is much more terrifying than we had imagined; not even ordinary special-characteristic bullets can harm him in the slightest."
