Chapter 232: The Ying Family’s Fury!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As Sima Yu expected, the Ying family became enraged when they received the news. And their fury soared sky high!

For so many years, they had always been the party that bullied other people, and no one had ever dared to cause trouble for them. In fact, this was no longer simply causing trouble. This was equivalent to bearding the lion in its own den. If this guy had the guts to do this, who knew what else he was capable of!

That explosion last night attracted the attention of the whole capital. The police inspector in charge of this area sent his entire police force to the crime scene at once. He was very relieved to find the rich and influential people unharmed.

These people represented almost half of the prominent families in the capital. If anything were to happen to any of them, he wouldn’t be able to answer for it even if they chopped his head off a hundred times.

The powerful families were also relieved to learn that their own members were not hurt. Though the seniors heaved a sigh of relief, they still had to grudgingly swallow their pride to claim them back. After rounds of bitter scolding and severe reprimanding, these profligate offspring were grounded with a stern warning to never go to such sleazy nightspots again.

“Only the members of the Ying family perished in that night’s explosion. It looks like someone was deliberately targeting the Ying family.”

The Song family, Chu family and Qin family, which were the other four great families, also got a good understanding of the crime scene immediately.

In the ruins, there existed a sword scar of a hundred meters. Someone shattered the entire Romance and Rendezvous Club with a single sword strike. This level of strength could only come from at least a Great Grand Master, or even a War General.

When they realized that such a person was targeting the Ying Family, many families that did not get along with the Ying Family all watched the good show in secret glee.

Things were getting worse, and the furious Ying family could only watch in frustration, at least they could not take any action openly. In any era, a faction’s intelligence organization should be not exposed and should not be publicized.

“Investigate thoroughly. We must investigate this matter thoroughly, and make the person who did this pay a heavy price, or else it will be a complete loss of face for the Ying family!”

The higher-ups of the Ying family were hopping mad. Ying Chao, the patriarch of the Ying family, pulled a long face all day. The other clansmen present felt a great sense of oppression and did not dare to breathe loudly.

In addition to one Ying Feng, a large number of intelligence agents of the Ying family died. They were all the elite of the Ying family.

“By Heaven’s Grace! Ying Mei’er survived. She must have a lot of information about the murderer.”

All the higher-ups of the Ying family paid Ying Mei’er a visit. After a day’s medical treatment, Ying Mei’er’s injuries were no longer serious. At present, she was lying on the bed, covered with bandages.

“Mei’er, can you tell us what did you see last night?” The enraged Ying Chao

tried his best to display a gentle smile and present the kind side of an elder in front of his junior.

Ying Mei’er, on the other hand, remained in a daze for a moment. Then, a look of horror appeared on her pretty face as if she was unwilling to recall the scene last night.

“I… I only saw… There was a man with a mask. I could not see the face clearly. He slew Uncle Feng and the other clan members with a sword. In front of him, we could not fight back at all. We were ridiculously weak.”

“Then, with one swing of his sword, he hacked the whole club…”

Ying Mei’er cowered in one corner of the bed, her body shivering and her eyes full of fear. A group of clansmen from the Ying Family were trying to calm Ying Mei’er down and asking questions at the same time.

In the end, they all frowned. From Ying Mei’er’s description, they only learned that the person who went up against the Ying family was an expert in using the sword with a cultivation level that was roughly in the range between Great Grand Master Grade 9 to the War General realm.

As for the rest, she knew nothing!

“You take a rest first.” Left with no choice, Ying Chao could only say this to Ying Mei’er.

Immediately, the Ying family deployed their own forces to search for clues of the murderer. Finally, they located those rich and influential people who went to the Romance and Rendezvous Club that night.

As a result, according to their recollection, they actually did not have any recollection of what happened that night, or rather, they could not recall.

Ying Chao’s frown deepened at once. This conveyed a very frightening signal to him.

The person who was targeting the Ying family was not only likely to be a War General who was a sword user, but he also very likely possessed a mental-type skill that could affect people’s memories. This made it even more difficult to capture him.

“Damn it! I won’t rest until I catch you, you rascal!” After searching for another day or two, there was still no result. The furious Ying family members cursed bitterly.

At this moment,

Ying Mei’er got out of bed and went back to a separate house. This was the house where she and her mother used to live.

After opening the door to the room, Ying Meier placed three incense sticks on the memorial tablet hanging on the wall and knelt down respectfully to pay her respects.

After a moment, she closed the door of the room tightly. She retracted that charming and alluring expression and said viciously, “Mother, I’ve come to visit you. Please wait a little longer. Soon, I’ll bury the Ying family as a funeral offering for you.”

Just like back then, Ying Mei’er dismembered and buried the servants who killed Ying Mei’er’s mother in the ground of this dwelling compound.

The Ying family’s care for her over the past ten years or so had not extinguished the flame of her hatred a single bit. Instead, her hatred grew increasingly stronger.

This was because she knew that all this was just the Ying family’s investment in her because they held her talent in high regard. If it came from the heart, what the heck were they doing before this?

Her mother, a direct descendant of the Ying family, would not have died at the hands of a few lowly servants.

Ying Mei’er crawled under the memorial tablet just like she did when she was a child. When she was tired and weary, she would take a nap in her mother’s arms. The cold floor seemed to have some warmth in her perception.

After a long while, she reverted to her previous disposition and left.

Unbeknownst to her, a member of the Ying family watched all her movements in secret and reported to an elder of the Ying family.

His name was Ying Tianlai, a direct descendant of the Ying family. He was the seventh elder, a War General, and the chief in charge of the Ying family’s intelligence operations. Therefore, all the intelligence reports had to go to him for consolidation before he reported to Ying Chao.

After Ying Tianlai learned of this, a trace of iciness appeared in his aged eyes. “It seems that this little girl’s hatred for us still hasn’t lessened. She is still holding a grudge.”

This clan member bowed his head and said worriedly, “Elder, is it really good to let someone who hates us live in the Ying family?”

Ying Tianlai said with a sneer, “Don’t worry. It won’t be long before she will be assigned by the family to complete more tasks for us. She was never our family member in the eyes of the patriarch. She was just a weapon.”

That was right. The Ying family had been nurturing Ying Mei’er for more than ten years, but they treated it as just polishing a knife. Only when the knife was sharp could she execute more unspeakable things for the Ying family.

“Once this weapon is finished with what it can do, then the day it is scrapped will not be far away.” Ying Tianlai said in a low voice that only he himself could hear.

At this moment, it was not only the Ying family that was anxious. The Zheng family was in the same situation. Zheng Xiaochuan was the only male heir of the Zheng family. No matter how profligate he was, he would still inherit the Zheng family’s business empire in the future.. However, this heir had been kidnapped, so how could the Zheng family not be in chaos?
