Chapter 1066 Tian Family(3)

"W-Wait a minute!" Tian Xianzu suddenly said.

"What"s wrong?" Yuan asked.

"This is ridiculous! You want to go against the Lin Family, one of the Seven Legacy Families?! I appreciate your willingness to help us, but that"s too much! You"re not only going to get yourself killed, but you"re also going to drag our Tian Family along with you to the grave!" Tian Xianzu exclaimed.

He turned to look at Tian Yanyu and continued, "You too! Stop your nonsense! The moment we lay a finger on the Lin Family, they will completely destroy us! The only reason they don"t dare to touch our family right now is because of our family history! However, if we give them a reason to act, they will move in full force!"

"Are you telling me to sit still and stay silent while they continue to hara.s.s our family?! Our restaurant"s business has gone down 90 percent since last year because of the Lin Family"s cowardly antics! If this continues any longer, our Tian Family will be reduced to nothing, regardless if we touch them or not! And I am not going down without a fight!" Tian Yanyu remained resilient.

"You—!" Tian Xianzu didn"t know what else to say after hearing his daughter"s words.

"Let"s all calm down, shall we?" Yuan suddenly said, still looking as relaxed as ever.

"The Lin Family may be one of Seven Legacy Families, but they are not untouchable. Why don"t you tell me a little more about your situation?"

Tian Yanyu nodded and took a seat at the table.

"I will get another teacup." The old lady said before leaving the room.

Once she was seated, Tian Yanyu spoke, "It started four years ago when I first met Lin Minghai on the stage during a friendly compet.i.tion between our sects. I managed to narrowly defeat him, and the very next day, he would begin courting me. Of course, I refused. However, he would continue to court me persistently over the next several days. Eventually, days turned into weeks, and weeks turned into months. It"s been four years since then, but he"s still courting me."

"He was just being annoying at first, but as time pa.s.sed, he would become more aggressive, and he would also start scheming by spreading bad rumors about me so that others would stay away from me. Then he started targeting our family businesses. We used to own several restaurants throughout the city, but we had to close down most of them because the Lin Family would send thugs to cause drama in our restaurants and mess with our reputation, forcing us to close them down. Now we"re down to just one restaurant."

"Of course, we can"t do anything about it because we don"t have concrete proof that the Lin Family is behind these incidents, but there"s no way it"s all just a coincidence. Lin Minghai even personally came to our house before, and he told my father that he would help us deal with the thugs, acting like he is innocent."

Yuan listened to Tian Yanyu explained their situation in detail with a tranquil expression on his face, but he was inwardly annoyed at the Lin Family and their nature.

"How typical. The powerful and influential tyrants are abusing their power and oppressing the weak to achieve their goals. This is quite common in the cultivation world. These people are a waste of spiritual energy. We should just kill everyone in the Lin Family and get this over with." Feng Yuxiang snorted.

"Have you forgotten about our situation, Feng Feng? We"re already being hunted by the Seven Legacy Families and the Ji Family. If we do something like that, they will be all over us." Yuan said.

"We"re already hunted, so it wouldn"t make any difference. In fact, we should be the ones to strike first! They tried to ambush us outside the Stairway to Heaven, so it would only be fair if we ambushed one of them in return!"

"Let"s not make our situation any more complicated than it already is. If we can solve this without shedding too much blood, that would be ideal." Yuan shook his head inwardly.

Once she finished explaining, Tian Yanyu asked, "What do you think? Can you help us?" Freeᴡebnovel.cᴏm Only.

Yuan pondered for a moment before speaking, "Are the thugs still an issue?"

"Yes, they come to our restaurant once a week to cause trouble for the customers, sometimes more."

"Then we will start by dealing with the thugs. The Lin Family won"t be able to do anything unless they want to reveal that they"re with the thugs." Yuan said.

"That sounds reasonable. But how are we going to do that?" Tian Yanyu asked him.

"It"s quite simple, actually. I am going to visit your restaurant as a customer, and if they pick a fight with me, I will deal with them accordingly." Yuan said with a smile.

"You make it sound so easy… but will it really work out as it does in your head?"

He nodded, "Of course. They"re working for the Lin Family and you"re their target, right? If you visit the restaurant with me, they will, without a doubt, try to mess with us."

Bang!

Tian Xianzu suddenly slammed the table.

"Wait! You want my daughter to be bait?! I am against her involvement in your nonsense!"

"Well, I don"t really need her help, but it will make things move quicker."

"I will do it." Tian Yanyu said.

"Yanyu!"

"You say you don"t want my involvement, but I am already involved— I have been since the beginning. And like Yuan said, the Lin Family won"t be able to do anything to us unless they want to expose themselves." Tian Yanyu said.

"That may be true, but they will still know that you"re trying to fight back against them! I don"t want anything to happen to you!"

"Don"t worry, I will protect her." Yuan suddenly said.

Tian Yanyu turned to look at Yuan and smiled, "Don"t look down on me. I am not so weak that I need your protection. If it wasn"t for his background, I would"ve already taken care of Lin Minghai by myself."

"Good." He smiled.
