Chapter 253: The Truth of the Past

No one had waited long for Lin Yang when urgent footsteps sounded outside the tea house.

They weren't there yet, but their voices arrived first.

"Boss Zhou is amazing, he found us a hundred-million-dollar client so quickly!"

"Rest assured, you'll get every penny of your commission!"

Still standing on the stage, afraid to move, Zhou Fei could only give an embarrassed smile upon hearing that.

Then, the door was pushed open.

A man in his thirties walked in, carrying a safe.

He really put on a show.

After he entered, he first glanced around.

Seeing Lin Yang sitting in the front chair, back to him, he chuckled and walked over.

He said with a chuckle.

"Friend, you have great eyes; this Longevity Pill guarantees you and your family long life and health."

Lin Yang chuckled and asked, "What if it doesn't work?"

"I and the Yang family head guarantee that if it doesn't work, we'll refund the full amount!"

Han Wenyu and Yang Guobin stepped into the tea house together.

Besides them, they also brought many bodyguards.

That group of bodyguards hurriedly closed the door.

Whether outside the door or inside, there were people standing guard.

After all, this is a hundred-million-dollar deal, and it's the lifeline money for both families!

Now, their fortunes have nearly been emptied.

They're just waiting for this wave to come and save them.

Besides them, two juniors from the two families stood beside them.

They came here also to see who could produce a hundred-million in cash!

They also wanted to befriend such a person.

As Han Wenyu and Yang Guobin approached Lin Yang with smiles.

Both of their eyes showed doubt.

They felt that this back view was somewhat familiar.

"Tsk tsk, you two really dare to say that for money."

"This Longevity Elixir is made by me; I don't even know if it works."

Lin Yang turned around with a chuckle and looked at Han Wenyu and Yang Guobin.

The moment they saw Lin Yang, both of their faces changed dramatically.

Cold sweat poured from their foreheads; their first reaction was to flee!

And the two juniors standing beside them, Han Yulei and Yang Tao.

They furrowed their brows, looked at Lin Yang, and said.

"Who are you? You're the one who made this Longevity Elixir."

"You came with us; you wouldn't be looking for trouble on purpose, would you?"

"When adults are speaking, juniors have no right to interrupt—shut up."

As soon as Lin Yang's words fell, Lu Jin Yan appeared beside them.

Before the indoor guards could react, he raised his hand and struck left and right, knocking out both of their teeth.

They even fainted from the pain.

Seeing this, Zhou Fei felt deep fear.

Meanwhile, Han Wenyu and Yang Guobin's faces turned grim.

But having witnessed Lin Yang's methods, they dared to be angry but not to speak.

"Both family heads, you used my Longevity Elixir to deceive people—how should this be handled?"

Han Wenyu gritted his teeth, looked at Lin Yang, and said.

"You sold these Longevity Elixirs to us; why do you care how we use them?"

Lin Yang shook his head and said.

"I don't care how you use it, but using it to deceive people is not allowed."

"By doing this, you're essentially destroying my Longevity Elixir."

As they were preparing to retort, a long sword appeared in Lin Yang's hand.

"You, does anyone have a problem?"

Both of them shuddered at the sight of the icy long sword.

Han Wenyu endured his fear and said to Lin Yang.

"Lin Yang, do you really intend to force the Four Surnames to their death?"

"What good would it do you to drive us to death?"

Seeing Han Wenyu's unwilling expression, Lin Yang chuckled and said.

"Watching you die is my greatest benefit."

"Lin Yang, you're bullying people too much!"

Han Wenyu shouted loudly, appearing ready to fight Lin Yang to the death.

Just as he was about to move, Lin Yang's sword tip pressed against his throat.

So what?

What you now possess shouldn't belong to you.

I merely took what wasn't yours.

Hearing Lin Yang's words, Han Wenyu's body trembled.

Finally, Yang Guobin lowered his head, hunched over, and looked at Lin Yang, saying.

What do you want before you'll let us go?

Seeing Yang Guobin like this, Lin Yang knew his psychological defenses had collapsed.

Letting you go is impossible, but I can leave your family a path to survival.

Yang Guobin's face turned deathly pale as he looked at Lin Yang and asked.

What are your conditions?

Lin Yang stared at Yang Guobin, his gaze sharp.

I need to know the exact details of that disaster that befell my family back then, and who was involved!

Yang Guobin felt a chill, knowing that as long as he spoke...

He would surely die!

He glanced at Han Wenyu, who also kept his head down, unknown what he was thinking.

You have one minute to consider; if after one minute you still don't speak...

I will kill them both.

Seeing Lin Yang's icy long sword, Yang Guobin hesitated for a moment, then finally said.

I'll speak!

In the southwest, our Four Surnames participated; in Jinling, there are three families!

We are all the black-gloved lackeys for that Yanjing family!

The list, I will write it for you after you release their juniors!

Lin Yang narrowed his eyes, looking at Yang Guobin.

Are you trying to negotiate terms with me?

I dare not!

At this moment, the silent Han Wenyu spoke.

As long as you are willing to release the juniors of our two families, I can tell you a truth you don't know.

Upon hearing that, Lu Jin Yan was about to act.

You're still setting conditions.

Stop.

Lin Yang looked at Han Wenyu, nodded, and said.

Fine, I'll release them; have your people take them away.

I also guarantee I won't kill the juniors of your two families.

Upon hearing Lin Yang say that, Han Wenyu ordered people to take them away.

After they left, Lin Yang looked at the two and said.

Speak.

Han Wenyu exhaled a foul breath and told Lin Yang a shocking piece of news.

Actually, after the fire back then, your mother still had some breath.

Even some of the maids in your household still had breath.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yang's body instantly straightened.

Veins bulged on his forehead, and the indoor temperature plummeted.

Continue speaking!

Ke Jian'an of Jinling sent your mother on her way.

Lin Tianzheng and we, all those not yet dead, we...

Speaking, he glanced at Lin Yang once more.

At this moment, Lin Yang's eyes were bloodshot.

His voice grew hoarse.

Continue speaking!

Your sister also nearly fell victim to the Chen family's poisonous hands.

They even considered taking your sister to Jinling.

But then that person from Yanjing suddenly arrived, and they stopped.

That person came, although they didn't find the blood jade, they took something from your father's corpse.

Having said that, both of their gazes turned to Lin Yang.

At this moment, Lin Yang felt a ball of fire burning in his chest.

Killing intent boiled in his eyes.

Whether the Jinling families or the Yanjing family, he will go demand an explanation!
