Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 491: Chapter 451 If we want to establish ourselves in Liaodong, we must first eliminate Yang Zhenshan!_2

”Only chaos in Ping Yuan can help!” Liu San said.

Zhao Yunxing’s expression froze, his face turning from green to white.

Cause chaos in Ping Yuan?

As long as Ping Yuan is chaotic enough, the court won’t have time to deal with him; they might even need him to stabilize the situation in Ping Yuan.

”No!” Zhao Yunxing was still afraid!

At the time, his only problems were colluding with business and accepting bribes. Even if the court were to handle his case,

at most he would be dismissed from his post. But if he dared to incite chaos in Ping Yuan, his entire family might face execution.

He hesitated, terrified, unable to make up his mind at the moment.

And at this time, inside a family compound in Dongyang Prefecture.

Yan Huichun was standing in front of a man in his twenties, who was tall, handsome, and spirited. He was fiddling with a string of black pearls, staring blankly at the clear sky.

”Your Highness, I have already conveyed the message to Zhao Yunxing,” Yan Huichun respectfully said.

The young man shook his head slightly, ”Useless, Zhao Yunxing is naturally greedy but also cowardly. It’s okay to provoke him against Yang Zhenshan, but to incite him to create chaos, haha, that’s overestimating him!”

His tone contained a touch of mockery and playfulness, showing no regard for Zhao Yunxing, the Standard Third Rank governor.

Yan Huichun furrowed his brows, asking, ”What should we do next?”

”What else can we do? We should leave!” The young man turned around, grinned, ”If it’s not feasible, better to slip away!”

Yan Huichun was shocked, ”Your Highness, is that really okay?”

”What’s not okay about it?”

”We’ve been plotting in Ping Yuan for so long, just to give up?”

”Haha, all these long plots were just a test, I have already obtained the results I wanted!” the young man said carelessly.

”What results?” Yan Huichun was puzzled.

They clearly hadn’t gained anything; not only had they gained nothing, but they had also made significant sacrifices.

”If we want to establish a foothold in Liaodong, we must eliminate Yang Zhenshan first!” The young man’s eyes flashed with a sharp light as he mentioned Yang Zhenshan.

Yan Huichun pondered, then nodded, agreeing with the young man’s idea.

”However, before we leave, you need to deal with Zhao Yunxing and Zhen Shicheng. They have seen you many times, they cannot be left alive!” the young man added.

”Your subordinate understands, I will handle it immediately!” Yan Huichun replied.

”Hmm!”

The young man nodded and then walked into the room.

By nightfall, both Zhao Yunxing and Zhen Shicheng, the Family Head of the Dongyang Zhen family, had silently died in their study rooms.

Both were killed in the same manner, stabbed through the skull.

Before dawn, the news of Zhao Yunxing’s assassination had spread through Dongyang Prefecture, causing widespread panic.

An Ruhui also received the news; he sat in his study full of anxiety.

It was not until Ding Qiu arrived in his study that his mind somewhat settled.

”Was Zhao Yunxing killed by you?” An Ruhui asked.

”No,” Ding Qiu shook his head.

”Really not?”

”Really not!” Ding Qiu showed a helpless expression.

An Ruhui stared intently at Ding Qiu, seeing his expression did not seem deceitful, then asked again, ”Then who killed him?”

Ding Qiu thought, ”Not just Zhao Yunxing, but Zhen Shicheng died too. We encountered a Martial Arts Master at the Zhen family.”

They had been lurking in Dongyang Prefecture all these days, also arranging for people to monitor several key targets.

However, they noticed nothing unusual about last night’s assassination until chaos erupted in Zhao Mansion.

In Dongyang Prefecture, there are not many Martial Arts Masters capable of infiltrating Zhao Mansion so silently.

At least Ding Qiu felt he couldn’t manage it.

Before meeting with Lord An, he had discussed with Luo Jingsong who was responsible for the deaths of Zhao Yunxing and Zhen Shicheng, and they concluded that it was Yan Huichun.

However, they did not know the origin and identity of Yan Huichun.

”Martial Arts Master? Who is that?”

”I’m not sure, a Postnatal Ninth Layer Martial Artist, not a famous one from Liaodong, probably from somewhere else!” said Ding Qiu.

Lord An’s eyebrows furrowed deeply.

”How could there be a Martial Artist from another place?”

Ding Qiu shook his head.

They had also tried to trace Yan Huichun, but unfortunately, they could not find him.
