<h4>Chapter 1648: Chapter 1641: The Tang Family’s Choice</h4>


    Just as Tang Fengyun was contemting, a sudden, urgent sound of footsteps echoed in the quiet living room.


    Upon hearing the footsteps, Tang Fengyun immediately looked up towards the entrance.


    "How is it, what’s the situation outside?" Tang Fengyun asked, looking at the person who entered.


    "Just like the rumors circting recently in Beijing, early this morning Lu Tianxing left the hotel and headed to the Great Wall. Moreover, shortly after Lu Tianxing’s departure, Avril from the Church also drove towards the Great Wall." The person replied respectfully to Tang Fengyun.


    "Are you certain?"


    "Yes."


    The person nodded solemnly and said, "I can confirm this, and since early this morning, the Yanhuang Group has specially sealed a twenty-mile section of the Great Wall, prohibiting anyone from entering."


    Upon hearing this, a gleam shed in Tang Fengyun’s eyes. He waved his hand and said, "I understand. You may leave now!"


    "Yes, sir."


    The person bowed respectfully to Tang Fengyun and then withdrew.


    Watching the person leave the living room, Tang Fengyun took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it for himself, and gazed dreamily at the ceiling, his face flickering with an indecipherable expression, leaving others unable to guess what he might be scheming.


    Time passed by slowly, and after a few minutes, Tang Fengyun suddenly snapped out of his daze. He flicked the cigarette butt into the ashtray, picked up his phone, and called his elder brother.


    The phone rang for only a moment before it was answered, and a resounding voice came through, "Second brother, what are you calling me for? Didn’t you say recently that the alliance with the Mu Family was a sess? Why are you calling me again? Is it because the Mu Family wants to back out?"


    "Brother, the Mu Family didn’t back out, but I think you might have heard about the recent happenings in Beijing. I believe this is a good opportunity for our Tang Family to eliminate Lu Tianxing, so I called to see if you wanted to secretly send someone to ambush and kill Lu Tianxing." Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the line, Tang Fengyun quickly replied.


    "Second brother, don’t act recklessly."


    Upon hearing Tang Fengyun’s words, Tang Fengxing’s voice immediately came through, "This time you went to Beijing for the marriage alliance with the Mu Family, not to mess with Lu Tianxing. I know you desperately want to avenge Third Brother, but now is not the time, do you understand?"


    "Not the time?"


    Tang Fengyun said in a low voice, "Elder brother, I think it’s precisely the right time. You don’t know; Lu Tianxing has already arranged a life-and-death battle with the Church today at the Great Wall. The Yanhuang Group has already sealed a twenty-mile radius of the Great Wall, which speaks volumes. Besides, if I’m not mistaken, the Yang Family might make a move this time too. This is a great opportunity for us to kill Lu Tianxing, brother. I also heard that the current head of the Lu Family, Lu Haoyue, is also here. By killing him together, we can eradicate the Lu Family and avenge Third Brother’s death!"


    Upon hearing Tang Fengyun’s words, Tang Fengxing’s expression changed slightly, and he anxiously said, "Second brother, it’s exactly because of this that our Tang Family must not meddle in this matter, do you understand? Do you think that old guy Lu Tiankuang is a fool? Would he knowingly send both his grandsons to Beijing, a tiger’s den, to die? Moreover, is that little bastard Lu Tianxing a fool to willingly take such a risk? This time, you must not act, or you’ll never leave Beijing; you’ll die there."


    "Brother..."


    Tang Fengyun opened his mouth to say something but was interrupted by Tang Fengxing, who said, "Second brother, our Tang Family absolutely must not get involved in this matter, and you must return to Shu today on my orders as the Tang Family Patriarch. You must return to Shu today."


    With that, Tang Fengxing directly hung up the phone.


    "Dad, was that Second Uncle calling just now?" In the Shu Tang Family, a young man exuding a gentle aura was sitting in the Tang Family study, looking at Tang Fengxing and asking.


    "It was your Second Uncle; he wants to take action against Lu Tianxing, but I forbade it."


    Tang Fengxing took a deep breath, his face carrying a hint of gloom. How could he not know this was the best opportunity to kill Lu Tianxing, but is it that easy to kill him?


    Without the intervention of someone at thete stage of the mythical level, Lu Tianxing cannot be dealt with. But once someone at thete stage of the mythical level makes a move, will the Yanhuang Group stand idly by?


    "Dad, is Lu Tianxing really that terrifying?" Tang Qingyun asked lightly, looking at his father.


    "Qingyun, you don’t understand. He is a second Nie Kuangren, a figure who surpasses the monstrous geniuses of the Lu Family lineage, someone who can dominate an era."


    Tang Fengxing exhaled slowly, looked at his son, and said seriously, "Qingyun, I know you might be unconvinced in your heart, but let me tell you, if you ever encounter Lu Tianxing, never underestimate him. Either do nothing or kill him immediately. Never give him any chance to catch his breath; otherwise, you will be the one to die."


    "I understand, Dad."


    Tang Qingyun nodded slightly, but a hint of disdain shed deep in his eyes. He was the Tang Family’s top genius, already a middle-stage mythical expert at a young age. With the Tang Family’s elusive hidden weapons and poisons, even someone at thete stage of the mythical level would die at his hand if they made the slightest mistake. Against a mere middle-stage mythical person like Lu Tianxing, no matter how strong he is, he can’t possibly defeat someone at thete stage of the mythical level. He doesn’t even fear ate-stage, let alone a middle-stage mythical person.


    Tang Fengxing looked into his son’s eyes, sighed in his heart, but said nothing more. Instead, he bowed his head in contemtion.


    Meanwhile, at a research institute of the Shen Group in Beijing.


    Shen Manjun, wearing a whiteb coat meant for scientific researchers, looked mature and charming despite the loosely fitted attire. Her jade-like face retained a seductive allure, yet it couldn’t conceal a strong shade of worry as her fingers sped tightly.


    "Tianxing, I’m sorry. This time, I fear I really couldn’t help you. I’m sorry."


    Shen Manjun muttered softly to herself. As the leader of the Shen Family, she was well aware of the recent happenings in Beijing, and how dangerous things were around Lu Tianxing, yet she had no means, nor could she spare any effort, to intervene.


    The only reason the Shen Family still stood tall in Beijing as a prestigious family was not just their foundation, but also because since her father’s time, they’ve been researching gene enhancement technology for China. It’s precisely because of this reason that despite the Shen Family’s weakness, no other n dared to act rashly against them.


    That night, she rushed off after receiving a call because theboratory researching the gene enhancement technology was attacked, prompting her urgent return.


    This technology had consumed two generations of the Shen Family’s strength. Her parents had departed this world sadly due to excessive mental exhaustion from researching gene enhancement. As their sessor, she was determined to fulfill her parents’ dying wish ofpleting this gene-enhancing technology.


    The gene enhancement technology research had now reached its most critical juncture. She couldn’t afford to be distracted by other matters, not even to leverage the Shen Family’s power, because the previous attack was just the beginning. Once the opposing forces discovered that the gene enhancement technology seeded, they would stop at nothing to seize it. The Shen Family’s resources had to be entirely dedicated to safeguarding this, without anyxity.


    "Tianxing, you must protect yourself and ensure nothing happens, or I’ll live in remorse for the rest of my life."


    Shen Manjun murmured softly again, her face disying even deeper worry.


    "Chairman, the research results are about to be revealed. Are youing over to take a look now?"


    At this moment, someone knocked on Shen Manjun’s office door. A middle-aged man in a whiteb coat entered.


    "Understood, I’m heading over now."


    Shen Manjun took a deep breath, instantly masking her worry. Her enchanting face adopted a serious and solemn demeanor as she turned and strode out.


    Not only Shen Manjun, but also far away in the U.S., in HSD, neon lights now illuminated the night, bathing the city in varied, colorful splendor.


    A crescent moon hung high in the sky, stars twinkling incessantly, a gentle night breeze stirring, and the mesmerizing moonlight ensnaring countless handsome men and beautiful women.


    In the Morgan Family Mansion’s gym in the United States HSD.


    At this moment, Angel, holding a handgun, stared seriously at the target on the shooting range. After a minute, she quickly raised the gun, pulled the safety, and fired at the target ahead.


    "Bang!"


    The bullet sliced through the air, flying directly towards the target a hundred meters away.


    "Bang!"


    With a soft prating sound, the bullet urately hit the bullseye, scoring a perfect ten.


    "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"


    Angel kept pulling the trigger, each bullet hitting dead center, showcasing her exceptional marksmanship.
