After punching Sun Yaowu to death, Lu Yu slowly stood up, reached out a hand to grip Sun Yaowu's neck, lifting him like a chick, then slowly picked up Sun Guangzhi's corpse and headed toward the coffin in the hall!

Sun Guangzhi's body was still bleeding as Lu Yu dragged him toward the hall, leaving a crimson, eerie trail on the ground, like a human paintbrush, the sight was truly shocking!

After placing Sun Yaowu and Sun Guangzhi into the coffins, Lu Yu slowly covered the coffin lid, and at that moment, Marcus appeared behind Lu Yu, and spoke: "Sir, everyone in the Sun Family has already passed out, should we take this chance to finish them all?"

Marcus was from the Assassin Alliance, accustomed to such matters, he specially came to seek Lu Yu's opinion at this moment.

"No need!"

Upon hearing Marcus's words, Lu Yu shook his head, stating: "With Sun Yaowu dead, the remaining members of the Sun Family will naturally be dealt with by others. Your task now is to clean up the entire scene for me, understood?"

The Sun Family and the Li Family held considerable power in the Capital, occupying many of its resources and prime locations, thus they had many rivals. When Sun Yaowu and Li Zhenxuan were alive, no one dared to attack them, but now with their deaths, people will surely be eager to step up and deal with them!

Bai Yaochen of the Bai Family is one of them.

The old Bai Yaochen first showed goodwill towards me and then had his eldest grandson Bai Haocang inform me about this, all aiming to use me to get rid of Li Zhenxuan, thereby facilitating the Bai Family's rapid development!

Moreover, I had no choice but to kill Li Zhenxuan, employing the strategy of driving tigers to swallow wolves, truly executed brilliantly!

Therefore, now Lu Yu is certain that once the news of Li Zhenxuan and Sun Yaowu's deaths spread, the Bai Family will undoubtedly seize and annex the assets of these two families, crushing them completely!

This is precisely why Lu Yu didn't instruct Marcus to wipe out everyone!

After all, having already killed the heads of the Sun and Li families, further aggression would surely attract the attention of the authorities, bringing huge trouble.

And with the death of the Sun Family and Li Family's patriarchs, people will instinctively suspect the Bai Family was behind it, and if the Bai Family makes any move to annex them, it would be a tacit acknowledgment that they did it, thus allowing Lu Yu to easily extricate himself.

So, it's prudent for Bai Yaochen to take the blame for the deaths of the Sun Family and Li Family's patriarchs, as they have the power and influence to handle such matters effortlessly!

Thinking of this, Lu Yu said: "Do the work quickly, make it look like an accident, don't leave any flaws!"

"Yes, Sir!"

Upon hearing Lu Yu's instructions, Marcus couldn't help but smile slightly, for disguising a scene as an accident was exceedingly simple for the Assassin Alliance.

...

Meanwhile, in the secluded courtyard of the Capital Bai Family.

At this moment, Bai Haocang was kneeling on the ground, his once pristine white suit soaked in sweat, his previously upright physique trembling, while his face showed a pained expression.

He's been kneeling here for a whole day now, his knees are swollen and red, painfully aching all over, and not only that, he hasn't eaten or drunk anything for a whole day, leaving him extremely weak!

"Do you know your mistake?"

Bai Yaochen asked looking at his grandson, sitting on a rocking chair, his words colored with coldness.

"I know, Grandpa."

Bai Haocang replied through gritted teeth, his words filled with pain.

"Oh? Then tell me, what was your mistake?"

Upon hearing Bai Haocang's words, Bai Yaochen said coldly, his expression full of intent.

"Grandson's mistake was, I shouldn't have followed Lu Yu, I shouldn't have spied on his battle with Li Zhenxuan!"

Bai Haocang said, his words full of difficulty.

"You are indeed foolish to the core!"

Upon hearing Bai Haocang's words, Bai Yaochen sighed lightly, then said: "This Lu Yu, who exactly is he, we don't even know now, just that he openly crashed Sun Family's engagement banquet with a punch that jolted Sun Yaowu, proves he is someone you absolutely can't provoke, you dared to spy on him, it's a miracle you came back alive!"

"Grandpa, grandson understands his wrongs!"

Upon hearing Bai Yaochen's words, Bai Haocang said respectfully, his words full of reverence. Reflecting on last night's scenes now, he shivered from head to toe, the gruesome scene where Lu Yu effortlessly slaughtered forty men still haunting him like a nightmare, refusing to fade.

He had never seen such terrifying scenes in his life!

"Alright, you may rise now."

Seeing the fear in Bai Haocang's eyes, Bai Yaochen knew Bai Haocang understood his mistake, he said with a calm tone: "Go apply some medicinal wine, rest a bit, tomorrow we will strike against the Sun Family and the Li Family!"

All along, the Li Family was like a Great Saber hanging above Bai Yaochen's head, preventing him from raising his stature, now with Li Zhenxuan finally killed by Lu Yu, naturally, the Bai Family will strike against the Sun Family and the Li Family!

Just as Bai Yaochen finished speaking, a young man suddenly walked in, upon seeing Bai Yaochen, he said: "Sir, Sun Yaowu and Sun Guangzhi are dead!"

"What?"

Upon hearing the young man's words, Bai Yaochen was taken aback, his old eyes widened as he asked: "What happened?"

"Lu Yu brought a bunch of men, singlehandedly killed Sun Guangzhi and Sun Yaowu, now their bodies are in the Sun family courtyard, there's also Li Zhenxuan's corpse!"

The young man said respectfully!

Bang!

Upon hearing this, Bai Yaochen crushed the teacup in his hand, his eyes showing immense surprise, after a few seconds of astonishment, he said: "This Lu Yu is indeed remarkable, if I want to annex the Bai Family and the Sun Family, I must take the blame for this! Truly excellent moves!"
