Top-Tier Superpower Student

The word "kill" had barely left his lips when a chilling coldness burst forth from Li Xiangqian.

Everyone shuddered, a cold fear gripping their hearts!

...,....

Following that, Li Xiangqian brought some gifts and, together with a few elders of the Li Family, arrived at Li Xiangjin's gate.

Today, they must implore Li Xiangjin to lend his aid.

Lin Tian was formidable, the intentions of the masked men in black unknown, the Li Family teetered on the brink of disaster; one misstep and they could be wiped out, so Li Xiangqian set his pride aside today to beg his younger brother for help.

"Halt, who goes there?" a guard blocked Li Xiangqian and the others, asking.

Before Li Xiangqian could speak, an elder behind him barked, "I am Li Xiangjin's uncle, let us pass quickly."

No sooner had he finished speaking than he tried to force his way inside.

The guard didn't care for his status, swiftly drew his gun, and pressed the muzzle against the elder's forehead.

"This is a restricted area, no outsiders may behave recklessly, and no exceptions will be made. Take one more step and you will be killed without mercy!"

The elder, his nostrils flaring with rage, couldn't believe it; damn it, some lowly guard dared to point a gun at him.

Li Xiangqian quickly held back the elder, whispering, "The younger brother's men are always merciless; don't be rash, or he will truly kill us."

Hmph!

The elder was furious, but he didn't dare to act rashly after all. He glared at the guard and stepped back.

When under someone else's roof, one must bow their head, and Li Xiangqian, even as the head of the Li Family, had no choice but to bow to a mere guard.

"Young man, I am Li Xiangqian, your general's elder brother. I have an urgent matter to discuss with him today, please notify him!"

The soldier holstered his weapon and said coldly, "Wait here!"

He jogged off to find Li Xiangjin.

In a spartan yet clean room, a robust man in military uniform peered through the window. On the drill ground outside, a young man was drenched in sweat, doing sit-ups.

This man in uniform was Li Xiangjin, and the sweating youth was his son, Li Tian.

Having previously stayed with the Li Family, Lin Tian had grown sluggish and listless, which angered Li Xiangjin. He brought Li Tian to the military camp for strict training to rid his son of his bad habits and turn him into a real man.

Poor Li Tian suffered, but he had no choice but to persevere, biting back the pain, for any lack of perseverance would result in even harsher punishment.

At that moment, a guard hurried over, stood at attention by the door, and reported crisply, "Reporting in!"

"Come in!" Li Xiangjin turned and said.

The guard ran in and informed, "Reporting General, several people have arrived at the gate; the one leading them claims to be your elder brother, Li Xiangqian. He requests to see you."

After hearing this, Li Xiangjin fell silent for a long moment, his eyes revealing a complex mix of emotions, a look of profound distress.

In the end, Li Xiangjin waved his hand weakly and said to the guard, "Do not admit them!"

"Yes, sir!"

The guard stood at attention, withdrew, and jogged back out.

No sooner had he left than Li Tian ran in.

"Dad, Uncle wants to see you; why won't you meet him? It's been several months since I saw Uncle, and I miss him. Let me go back to the Li Family for a visit to see them."

Li Xiangjin said, "Did you complete your 500 sit-ups?"

Li Tian's heart sank as he replied in a fearful whisper, "No."

"Then add another 500. If you don't finish today, tomorrow, you'll run a hundred li cross-country. Go!"

Despite his strong reluctance, Li Tian had no choice but to return and continue his sit-ups. An extra 500, making it a thousand total; oh, heaven! It was going to kill him.

After Li Tian had left, a wall in Li Xiangjin's room suddenly shifted, revealing a person.

This man was Li Xiangjin's strategist, essentially his brain trust.

The strategist said, "General, you are after all a son of the Li Family. Are you really so heartless as to wash your hands of the family's affairs?

Li Xiangjin spoke indifferently, "The Li Family has committed many misdeeds over the years. I cannot tolerate it, and even the higher-ups can't tolerate it anymore."

"You mean...!"

A chill went through the strategist's heart, his eyes quivering.

"Indeed, even the higher-ups plan to take action against the Li Family. If I interfere, not only will it not save the Li Family, but it will also drag me down. Now, all I can do is to be prudent and seek my own fortune. Whatever happens to the Li Family in the future is the wheel of karma, the retribution of cause and effect!"

"Alas...!"

The strategist sighed deeply, left without words.

Li Xiangjin too looked in the direction of the Li Family, sighing lightly, "Elder brother, second brother, dear uncles, I am sorry!"

...,....

At the gate, the guard came out and said to Li Xiangqian, "The General says, he will not see you!"

What?

A hint of shock appeared in Li Xiangqian's eyes; was he really so ruthless? Could he truly be indifferent to the life and death of the Li Family?

The elders behind were all infuriated.

"This brat, he's got no humanity."

"I've wasted so much affection on him when he was young."

"It was I who proposed to send him to join the army. Had I known this would happen, I would've sent the second child instead."

"He's broken my heart, he's not a descendant of the Li Family anymore; we don't recognize him as one of us from now on!"

"Damn it, let me in, I want to see him myself," shouted one of the more hot-tempered elders.

However, the guard at the gate pointed their gun, and the elder was stupefied; he could only retreat helplessly.

"Alas...!"

Li Xiangqian sighed deeply; he didn't expect Li Xiangjin to be so "heartless!"

"Forget it, if the third refuses to make a move, there's nothing we can do. Our only hope now lies in those masked assailants. Whether it's a blessing or a curse, if it's a curse, there's no avoiding it—let's go back!"

For a moment, Li Xiangqian seemed to have aged a decade, his voice listless, no longer resembling the once dominant Family Head of the Li Family.

..., ... .

Wu'an City!

Lin Tian, along with Wang Ying, Jiang Hui, He Qianqian, Bu Mengting, Shen Mengyi, Chen Lihui, and others, sat around a large round table, sipping tea and nibbling on sunflower seeds.

Now Lin Tian was under no great pressure; Wang Yuan had just called him to inform that he had destroyed two of the Li Family's properties. At this rate, within a week, Wang Yuan would wipe out the Li Family's businesses, leaving them isolated like a lone fortress—suffocated to death or driven mad with frustration.

With Lin Tian holding the fort in Wu'an City, he wasn't worried about any assassination attempts!

But the threat of unknown enemies looming over his loved ones made Lin Tian uneasy; even the meals didn't taste good. And according to Wang Ying, the shadowy figure who attacked them yesterday was very strong. Better safe than sorry; if a real disaster occurred, what would they do then?

In broad daylight, they couldn't simply storm in, and the Capital City didn't need Lin Tian to worry about it. It was better to deal with the hidden threats while they had nothing else to do.

The question was, how to root them out?

Lin Tian thought: they had targeted the apartment, surely aiming for He Qianqian and Bu Mengting to threaten him.

Since their first attempt was unsuccessful, they likely wouldn't give up that easily. They must be hidden nearby, waiting for the opportune moment to strike.

They were strong, with clever tactics; the chances of dragging them out from the shadows were almost zero.

If he couldn't find them, he had to lure them out.

But how to lure them out?

Lin Tian thought hard and finally came up with an idea, but immediately shook his head, dismissing it.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you thinking about?" He Qianqian noticed Lin Tian pondering and asked.

"Yeah, honey, what's on your mind?" Bu Mengting chimed in with her question.

Lin Tian said, "I'm figuring out how to draw out the person who attacked you."

He Qianqian immediately guessed Lin Tian's thoughts, a little frightened, she tentatively suggested, "How about I go out as bait? You all can protect me from the shadows. I'll lure him in, and you can strike together and take him down!"

Lin Tian was deeply moved upon hearing this and hugged He Qianqian tightly, giving her a vigorous kiss.

His lead wife was truly on the same wavelength as him, always knowing what he was thinking.

Bu Mengting, standing to the side, watched in a daze, her eyes swirling with emotion as she stared at Lin Tian, as if to say: Husband, why aren't you kissing me? Come on, kiss me, quick!

The junior wife was also great. In front of so many people, how could Lin Tian forget about her?

He gave her a "sweet kiss" too!

Bu Mengting smiled softly, very satisfied as she continued munching on her sunflower seeds and sipping her tea water.

Then, Lin Tian asked He Qianqian, "Lead wife, those who attacked you are quite formidable; aren't you afraid?"

He Qianqian was just an ordinary person; how could she not be afraid? But fear alone wouldn't solve the problem; to help Lin Tian, she was ready to risk it all!

She bravely shook her head and said, "I'm not afraid!"

After speaking, her complexion turned pale, but she added, "I believe my husband will protect me!"

Bu Mengting quickly grasped He Qianqian's arm, saying, "I'll be with Qianqian. Together, we won't be afraid, and I also believe that my husband will protect us!"

Ah!

These two wives, they were simply too wonderful.

So understanding!

In his previous life, Lin Tian must have performed some immense act of kindness to find such amazing wives.

Thumbs up...!

Lin Tian's thumbs shot up for both his lead and junior wives, wanting to give them a billion thumbs up in appreciation!

To reward them, Lin Tian cheerfully gave each a "sweet kiss!"

On the side, Wang Ying quickly advised, "Brother, it's too risky. I've seen that person; they're very powerful, and their movement technique is extremely elusive, coming and going like a shadow; bullets can't touch them. If we're even a step too slow, the sisters-in-law will be in danger. You can't use them as bait—it's far too dangerous!"

"It's okay, we're not scared; your brother will take good care of us," He Qianqian, knowing Wang Ying meant well, reassured him.

Wang Ying didn't say anything, but he clearly disagreed with Lin Tian's plan.

Chen Lihui stepped forward and said, "Right, Big Brother, you can't have the sisters-in-law serve as bait, it's too dangerous. I'm your brother too; let me do it, I'll be the bait!"
