Chapter 68 The Lin family, not a single one spared!
Lu Ming, standing to the side, also looked completely lost and dejected.
Only at this moment did he sadly realize that all his usual scheming and plotting were utterly laughable in the face of overwhelming power.
As for Consort Shu, her face was ashen.
She never imagined that she, a powerful expert at the fifth level of the Heavenly Origin Realm, would be caught off guard and fall into the hands of such a character!
"I refuse to accept this! I refuse to accept this!"
Consort Shu suddenly screamed hysterically, her hair disheveled and her appearance like that of a madwoman, completely devoid of her usual composure.
"I am a disciple of the Ziyang Sect, a genuine Tianyuan Realm expert!"
"How dare you ants treat me like this?"
"snort!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Ji strode forward with a cold face, and without saying a word, kicked Consort Shu hard in the mouth.
The kick was so powerful that it knocked out several of her teeth, leaving her mouth full of blood and unable to speak, only able to whimper.
"Don't try to intimidate me with the Purple Sun Sect!"
"Open your eyes wide and look carefully! This is the Great Yan! This is the Lu family's territory!"
"You intend to usurp the throne and murder the emperor. Even if the higher-ups of the Ziyang Sect find out, they will absolutely not protect you!"
Having said that, Wang Ji looked down coldly at these three once high and mighty creatures who were now reduced to prisoners.
"The victor is king, the loser is villain; don't you understand such a simple truth?"
"In fact, from the moment you decided to take action, your fate was already sealed."
"Guards, take him away!"
At Wang Ji's command, several Soul Platform Realm experts who had been waiting nearby immediately stepped forward and dragged the three away like dead dogs without saying a word.
Then, not long afterward.
With a whooshing sound, a figure landed steadily in the courtyard of the Prince's mansion.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed Wei Jiuqian, who had left earlier and was now hurriedly returning.
However, his face was gloomy at the moment.
"Eunuch Wei, how is the situation? Have you captured Lin Ruofu?"
Wang Ji strode forward to greet him and asked.
Wei Jiuqian shook his head helplessly, then sighed heavily.
"In the end, that old fox still got away."
"He operated in the capital for many years, leaving behind countless secret passages and hidden rooms."
"Our family chased after him all the way to an abandoned house in the west of the city, where we completely lost track of him."
"but……"
At this point, Wei Jiuqian suddenly changed his tone, and a ruthless glint flashed deep in his eyes.
"He was seriously injured today and won't be able to cause any trouble for a while."
"They ran away?"
Wang Ji frowned slightly, but quickly relaxed.
"So what if he ran away? As long as the Lin family, this big tree, falls, he can't amount to anything on his own."
"Now that the Lin family has lost all its elite forces, it's the perfect opportunity to kick them while they're down!"
Wang Ji's eyes flashed with murderous intent. He cupped his hands to Wei Jiuqian and said, "Eunuch Wei, take your men back to the palace to report to His Majesty. Also, take these three traitors back with you."
"I will return to the camp immediately to gather troops; we will surround the Lin residence tonight!"
"His Majesty's decree: The entire Lin family, down to the last chicken and dog!"
"Not a single chicken or dog will be spared..."
Upon hearing this, Wei Jiuqian's heart trembled slightly.
He knew Lu Tianxing's character well; although he was decisive in killing, he was not a bloodthirsty person.
The fact that such a harsh decree has been issued now is clearly to pave the way for Lu Xuan and clear away all obstacles!
This also indirectly confirms that His Majesty's health probably won't last much longer.
We must completely eliminate all hidden dangers before that day arrives, at all costs!
"We understand."
Wei Jiuqian nodded, his expression solemn.
"General Wang, go with peace of mind. With my master and Master Ying in charge of the palace, nothing can go wrong."
"As for the Lin family..."
A complex look flashed in Wei Jiuqian's eyes.
The Lin family is, after all, a behemoth that has stood in the Great Yan for a hundred years. If it is destroyed, the top combat power of the Great Yan will be reduced by at least 20%.
Those neighboring enemy countries that are eyeing us with predatory intent are probably about to stir up trouble again.
But this is the price that must be paid!
Do not break or stand!
Only by completely eradicating this malignant tumor can the Great Yan Dynasty be reborn!
"General Wang, please be careful."
Wei Jiuqian gave Wang Ji a deep look.
Wang Ji's presence here was not for the so-called merit of following the emperor, nor for a share of the spoils after the Lin family was destroyed.
He did it for the sake of the Great Yan dynasty.
This person is not loyal to any one person, but to this land and the people on this land!
As long as the emperor's orders do not violate this principle, he will carry them out without hesitation, even if it means being crushed to pieces!
"Hahaha! Don't worry, Eunuch Wei!"
Wang Ji laughed heartily and mounted his horse.
"After tonight, the Lin family will cease to exist in the capital!"
"drive!"
With a loud shout, Wang Ji, exuding a fierce and murderous aura, spurred his horse and galloped away.
Watching Wang Ji leave, Wei Jiuqian took a deep breath and turned to look at the three people who had been brought out, bound hand and foot.
"Release me! Wei Jiuqian! You eunuch! How dare you tie me up?"
Lu Heng struggled desperately. Although his cultivation was sealed, his arrogant and domineering attitude remained undiminished.
"I am the Crown Prince! The Heir Apparent of the Great Yan Dynasty! Your insubordination is punishable by the extermination of your entire clan!"
Lu Ming, standing to the side, also had a distorted expression, staring fiercely at Wei Jiuqian.
"Eunuch Wei, leave yourself a way out; it's better to meet again in the future."
The usually arrogant Consort Shu was now cursing like a shrew.
"You damned eunuch!"
"I am a disciple of the Ziyang Sect. If you harm me, the Ziyang Sect will not let you off..."
