Frontier Army Warrior

Chapter 1099 You should all prepare for your funerals.

This is, after all, Duan family territory. He is the most influential person besides Second Master Duan, and even the children of the Duan family have to show him respect.

“Mr. Muchuan, this is the Duan family. Please be more polite in your speech. I am here for the sake of Third Sister.”

Duan Jingqiu quickly put on a smile and said, "Mr. Muchuan, Uncle Lu is Third Sister's elder. How could he possibly harm me?"

Lin Feng sneered: "You're doing this for Third Sister's own good, but what's the point of bringing along these murderous guys?"

Lu Fang brought six assassins with him. Because these assassins never show themselves in public, they sneak in from the shadows to avoid being seen by others.

However, as soon as Lu Fang gives the signal to make a move, they will rush in without hesitation.

However, how could all their actions escape Lin Feng's consciousness scan?

Lu Fang's eyes darted around: "What murderous fellow? Third Sister, is there some misunderstanding here?"

Duan Jingqiu was also confused, not knowing what Lin Feng was talking about.

Lin Feng sighed, picked up a piece of jade paperweight from the desk, and tossed it upwards with a flick of his wrist.

The paperweight flew with lightning speed, yet its movements were clearly visible to everyone inside the room.

The jade paperweight crashed through the roof with a loud bang, striking a bodyguard lying prone on the roof tiles. Without uttering a sound, the bodyguard rolled off the tiles.

With a loud bang, it crashed into the yard, kicking up a cloud of dust.

This immediately caused a gasp of surprise, and then the servants and guards began shouting in a flurry of noise.

The Duan family's assassins are all rigorously trained. Unless they receive the signal to act, they cannot take the initiative to expose themselves and act, even if something happens to others.

Even with the level of security at Duan's Bank, they were still unable to discover and locate these hidden assassins.

Lu Fang's face immediately turned ugly.

He hadn't expected that this Mu Chuan was so capable; indeed, the previous assassination attempts were all related to this person.

Lin Feng turned to look at Lu Fang: "Mr. Lu, do you still want me to kill them all?"

Lu Fang hurriedly waved his hands frantically, saying, "No, no, no, Mr. Mu Chuan, these people are all my bodyguards. I didn't mean anything by it. Please don't misunderstand."

Lin Feng sneered, "I've seen these people before. They must be assassins kept by your Duan family. Mr. Lu, do you use people like these as bodyguards?"

Lu Fang's face turned green. Little did he know that the other person was so knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the matter.

"This...they...I..."

Cold sweat broke out on his face.

Lin Feng was furious. He had never seen such a stubborn and foolish father who repeatedly tried to kill his own daughter, and remained obstinate even after failing.

“Lu Fang, go back and tell Master Duan that this time I will respectfully address him as Master Duan. If he does not follow my instructions, then please tell him that you should all prepare for your funerals.”

After Lin Feng finished speaking, he stopped looking at Lu Fang.

Lu Fang stayed put. He looked at Duan Jingqiu and saw that she was also in a daze.

He was at a loss for what to do. He usually considered himself resourceful, but when faced with such a powerful force, he was like a scholar encountering a soldier, with no room for maneuver.

Fortunately, this Mu Chuan wouldn't harm him. He knew that even if he gave the signal, the remaining five assassins would probably be no match for him.

It's best to leave as soon as possible.

"I will certainly pass on Mr. Muchuan's words to Second Master. Farewell."

After saying that, he turned around in a disheveled state and stepped out.

His steps were a little unsteady.

Lu Fang, accompanied by his entourage, strode out of the gate of Duan's Bank and onto the main street.

As soon as I climbed onto the horse, I heard a voice in my ear.

"Three days. I'm only giving you three days, otherwise... you'd better think it over."

Lu Fang turned his head and looked around. Apart from his attendants, there was no one else around him.

"Okay, okay, I understand."

Having said that, he hurriedly spurred his horse and rode away, not daring to stay for even a moment longer.

Seeing Lu Fang run away, Duan Jingqiu frowned and looked at Lin Feng.

"Mr. Kikawa, thank you. I'm angry too this time."

She wasn't stupid. She knew the Duan family had assassins. Why would Lu Fang have good intentions if he brought assassins with him?

"Hesitation only leads to more trouble. Your father is too stubborn; it's not suitable to use family affection to persuade him."

Duan Jingqiu gritted his teeth and nodded, but tears streamed down his face.

Lu Fang spurred his horse on, galloping without resting along the way, and returned to Luoyang in less than four hours.

Without bothering to shower or change, covered in dust, he appeared disheveled in Master Duan's study.

When Master Duan saw Lu Fang's state, he knew things were not going well.

After listening quietly to Lu Fang's narration, he remained motionless for a long time, staring blankly ahead.

"Has this Mu Chuan's identity been verified?"

After a long while, Master Duan finally spoke.

Lu Fang smiled wryly: "It is said that he was a doctor among the Thirteen Caravans, or a cook. He did indeed escape back with Third Sister."

"Is this person very capable?"

Lu Fang nodded: "It's probably even more powerful than we imagined."

"Oh?"

"Second Master, think about it, how could Mr. Yan of Tianshan have disappeared without a trace..."

Master Duan let out a long breath, his body slumped into the chair like a deflated balloon.

Lu Fang's eyes darted around. He had been pondering this matter all along, and he also had some doubts in his heart.

"Second Master, this Mu Chuan is young and dashing, tall and handsome. Could it be that he came here because he admires Third Sister's beauty?"

Master Duan immediately propped himself up and began to look around.

“That makes perfect sense. I’ve never heard of such a master before, but he appeared right after Third Sister was in trouble. He must have been attracted to Third Sister.”

Lu Fang smiled and said, "That makes things interesting."

Master Duan frowned: "Hmm?"

"Think about it, Third Sister is someone His Highness the Crown Prince favors, so isn't this Mu Chuan..."

"So you mean..."

"Second Master can pretend to agree to their demands. As long as His Highness the Crown Prince returns to Luo City, everything will be decided by the Crown Prince."

Master Duan clapped his hands: "Great plan! No matter how capable he is, can he be more capable than His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"We can send someone to deliberately spread the news. How can His Highness the Crown Prince tolerate this? He will surely be furious... Hehe."

Lu Fang smiled smugly.

Master Duan nodded: "Send someone to tell Third Sister that Father has agreed to all her requests and will come to the Luocheng headquarters to take over the Duan family business."

Lu Fang gave a thumbs up: "Second Master is magnanimous. One can endure for a moment and then enjoy life to the fullest."

The two exchanged a glance, their smugness evident in their eyes.

The Duan family's bank in Luoxi Prefecture received an official notice from Master Duan, requiring Duan Jingqiu, the bank's manager, to go to the Duan family's headquarters in Luoxi within two days to take over as general manager.

Immediately, everyone at the Duan family's bank in Luoxi Prefecture was overjoyed.

Because they had always worked for Duan Jingqiu, this time they became the first trusted confidants of the head of the Duan family headquarters, so they were naturally much happier than the employees of other Duan family shops.

Duan Jingqiu placed the letter from Second Master Duan on the desk, dismissed the old steward, and looked at Lin Feng.

"Mr. Kikawa, what's your opinion?"

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Manager Duan already has his own judgment, so why bother asking me again?"

Duan Jingqiu nodded: "Based on my understanding of Father, he wouldn't give in so easily. There's probably more to this than meets the eye."
