<h4>Chapter 1820: Chapter 1813: The Wind Rises</h4>


    While the dance party was in full swing on the Tianbao ship, Sun Yaoyang’s men were all seated on speedboats at the edge of a secluded coastline.


    Sun Yaoyang himself sat on a speedboat, gazing silently at the pitch-ck sea, his expression unchanged.


    "Ring ring..."


    At that moment, a sudden and urgent phone ring pierced the night, severe and unsettling.


    Upon hearing the ringtone, Sun Yaoyang’s face shed with excitement, and without hesitation, he answered the call: "What’s the situation?"


    "Family Head, we’ve just received word that the Tianbao ship has set sail and has reached the designated location and stopped,"


    a deep voice came from the phone.


    "I understand,"


    Sun Yaoyang’s eyes flickered, and he hung up without hesitation. He nced at everyone seated on the speedboats: "I’m sure you all know what we need to do tonight. Our goal tonight is to kill, and anyone who obstructs us will be killed without mercy. Understand?"


    "Understood."


    The somber voice rose amid the sea breeze, carrying a chilly, murderous intent.


    "Good, tonight we’ll unleash a massacre, without mercy. Set sail, onward to the Tianbao ship."


    Apanied by the roar of engines, the speedboats glided over the waves, their beams quickly disappearing into the distance.


    Meanwhile, Lu Tianxing had no knowledge of these events; it was only after listening to Jiang Tianbao’s exnation that he understood the matter.


    It turned out that Zhao Yuanlong had fallen for a youngdy from a small family, and they were about to marry. Invitations had been sent out, and the whole of Coal Province was aware of it. But then, on the eve of the wedding, a change urred unexpectedly.


    At a g, Zhao Yuanlong was upied that day, so he sent his fiancée ahead. During that time, Wei Xu and Zhao Yuanlong’s fiancée became involved, finding a resting room at the venue and indulging in scandalous activities.


    Someone called Zhao Yuanlong with the news, and in a rage, he stormed in and cornered Wei Xu and the woman in the room...


    For a man, anything can be tolerated, except being cuckolded. More outrageously, his woman was crazier in bed with another man than with him, a situation difficult for any man to ept.


    The result was predictable: Zhao Yuanlong and Wei Xu fought, and Zhao Yuanlong was unable to beat Wei Xu. If not for someone intervening and considering Zhao Yuanlong’s status, Wei Xu might have killed him; even so, Zhao Yuanlong was nearly beaten to death.


    For any man, his fiancée sleeping with another man is bad enough, but to be beaten by the lover is infuriating. If not for the intervention, he might have been killed, the most humiliating event of his life.


    Afterward, Zhao Yuanlong became the butt of jokes throughout Coal Province, and Wei Xu was mocked as well, known as "Ol’ Wei from next door." Countless rich heirs distanced themselves from him—no one wants to associate with someone who might suddenly hand them a green hat.


    Because of this, Zhao Yuanlong and Wei Xu’s rtionshippletely broke down. Avoiding each other was fine, but if they crossed paths, cold sarcasm was inevitable.


    Regarding Zhao Yuanlong’s predicament, Lu Tianxing could only offer a helpless smile, not finding it unusual. Compared to Zhao Yuanlong’s lean and dark appearance at five foot three, Wei Xu was a handsome man; a woman with weak willpower would naturally fall for him.


    "What happened afterward?"


    "Wei Xu was merely ying around with her; once bored, he discarded her."


    Jiang Tianbao shrugged helplessly: "As for what happened to the woman, I heard she couldn’t bear to stay on Qin Ind, and considering Zhao Family’s potential revenge, she sold her assets and went abroad. Interestingly, as she left, that kid showed some reluctance, secretly seeing her off."


    Lu Tianxing heard this oue and gave Zhao Yuanlong an odd look, surprised to find Zhao Yuanlong was a romantic, apanying the woman who cuckolded him before her departure, even if secretly—something most wouldn’t do. Instead of killing her, some might consider it real love.


    Faced with Lu Tianxing’s peculiar gaze and Jiang Tianbao’s mockery, Zhao Yuanlong’s expression remained unchanged, as if unfazed by the unrted event. Yet Lu Tianxing could sense Zhao Yuanlong’s brief sh of murderous intent, revealing his inner storm.


    It was understandable; any man would struggle to entirely relinquish such a matter.


    "Enough, Lord Buddha, don’t expose my faults before Mr. Lu; these things are past. Better to part amicably, no point in further discussion. Her choice wasn’t wrong; dressed up, I still resemble a bum, which I’m used to."


    Zhao Yuanlong took a deep breath and smiled: "Mr. Lu, I came here to tell you, Wei Xu is no good; whatever he wants, he gets. Especially after you embarrassed him in front of everyone; he won’t let it slide."


    "Mr. Lu, Yuanlong is right; you’d best be careful,"


    Jiang Tianbaomented: "Though Mr. Lu, your skills are decent, Wei Xu employs underhanded methods, capable of anything for revenge."


    Listening to Jiang Tianbao and Zhao Yuanlong, Lu Tianxing replied calmly: "If he dares act, I’ll show him what Hell is."


    The calm tone was unmasked, brimming with murderous intent.


    Zhao Yuanlong, upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, was pleasantly surprised; had thought Lu Tianxing merely a lucky young man tied to the Qiu Family, but now, he seemed a mysterious and formidable figure, a veritable dragon.
