Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 156, no one dares to save?

"Yuan Tianguang, still waiting for Lin Fan and Yuan Youwei, those two mongrels, to come back?"

Inside the Yuan family estate, Yuan Xiangjun scoffed as she saw Mr. Yuan Sr. standing silent with his brows tightly knitted, her eyes brimming with mockery.

"Let me tell you the truth. No one can save the Yuan family this time, and no one can save you!" she sneered. "As for Lin Fan and Yuan Youwei? Heh, they’re probably long dead!"

At her words, Mr. Yuan Sr.’s eye twitched, and his expression instantly changed. The Yuan family members standing behind him exchanged horrified glances, their hearts leaping into their throats.

No wonder Lin Fan and Yuan Youwei have been missing all this time. Had they been assassinated by the enemy? It’s over. The Yuan family is truly done for!

"Y-you’re spouting nonsense!" Yuan Tao, though shocked and uncertain, gritted his teeth and retorted loudly. "Brother Fan’s martial arts are incredible! We’ve all seen it! Who could possibly get the better of him?!"

"Hmph, there’s always a bigger fish," Han Tianba snorted, a grin that didn’t reach his eyes fixed on Mr. Yuan Sr. "Lin Fan might be a martial arts master, but he’s no match for an elite assassin hired for a hefty sum!"

He squinted at the old man. "Old Yuan, since our families are joined by marriage, I don’t want to take things to the extreme. How about this? Hand over all of the Yuan family’s assets for the Han family to manage. If you agree, I can let you all off the hook... otherwise..."

He glanced over his shoulder at the elite members of the Black Wind Hall. "As you can see, these men of mine are no pushovers. Once they lose their tempers, even I can’t stop them, HAHAHA!"

"Old Hall Master, stop wasting your breath on them! Let’s just get to it!" one of the men shouted.

"Yeah, we’ve come all this way, we deserve to have some fun, right?" another added with a leer. "Look at these Yuan family women... so delicate and tender. It’d be a real shame to just kill them outright!"

The men from the Black Wind Hall responded with savage grins, their lecherous eyes sweeping over the women of the Yuan family.

At this sight, the Yuan family members began to panic, swallowing hard. Many of the women, terrified, began to cry out as they desperately tried to hide behind the crowd.

Yuan Tao clenched his fists, unable to bear it any longer. He turned to Mr. Yuan Sr. and suggested, "Grandfather, if we can’t fight back, let’s call the authorities! I refuse to believe the City Lord’s Mansion will just stand by and watch these bastards run rampant!"

"Go on, call them! Give it a try!" Before a frowning Mr. Yuan Sr. could speak, Han Tianba slapped his thigh and burst into boisterous laughter. "Do you think I’d be here if I wasn’t absolutely sure of myself?" He laughed as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the world, while the elites from Black Wind Hall crossed their arms and smirked, looking at the Yuan family as if they were a pack of idiots.

"Old Yuan, since you refuse to submit, I’ll do you the courtesy of letting you know why you have to die." Han Tianba’s smile vanished, his dim old eyes filled with a profound arrogance. "The person who wants to move against your Yuan family is a big shot from the Imperial Capital. All the proper channels have been greased. No one will care if the Yuan family lives or dies! Forget about reporting it. Even if you managed to run to the gates of the City Lord’s Mansion and scream for help, they wouldn’t dare take you in!"

What? This is the will of someone from the Imperial Capital? What in the world is going on? How did the Yuan family offend such a powerful figure?!

The Yuan family members were stunned speechless, their eyes wide with disbelief. Yuan Tao was also dumbstruck, his face turning ashen. The Hai City Yuan Family certainly had a formidable reputation, but compared to the noble houses of the Imperial Capital, they were nothing!

"...Is it the Wen family from the Imperial Capital? They’re just merchants. Surely they don’t wield that much power," Mr. Yuan Sr. asked in a grave voice, his face tense.

"HAHAHA! The Wen family? They’re nothing!" Han Tianba shook his head vehemently, laughing with sheer arrogance. "Do you think they’re important enough to make me, Han Tianba, personally get involved?"

This time, the Ying family from the Imperial Capital had sent someone to visit, saying they had a favor to ask. The entire Han family was in an uproar. As the Family Head, Han Tianba was so thrilled he nearly fainted from joy. If they could connect to such a powerful network, the Han family could soar to new heights and squeeze into the ranks of the Imperial Capital’s supreme families!

Moreover, their request was very much to Han Tianba’s liking. It was no secret that the Hai City Yuan Family had risen rapidly in recent years, building immense momentum. There were already signs that they were beginning to challenge the Han family of the provincial capital. Yuan Tianguang’s personal prestige was even starting to rival his own as the Money King! Given Han Tianba’s personality, if not for their families being joined by marriage, he would have made a covert move against them long ago. Now, with the support of the Imperial Capital’s Ying family, how could he possibly restrain himself?

Not only did he intend to swallow the fat prize that was the Yuan family, but he also wanted to use this opportunity to establish his dominance. He would show all the bigwigs in the Southwest provinces that the Han family of the provincial capital was still the undisputed hegemon, and no one should dare challenge them!

"Alright, I’ve given you enough time to think. Since you refuse to appreciate my kindness, don’t blame me for being merciless!" Scanning the lavish surroundings of the estate, Han Tianba couldn’t suppress his envy and resentment. Tired of further delay, he abruptly waved his hand.

"HAHAHA! You’d all better behave and not make us waste our energy," one of his men shouted. "Anyone who resists will die without a complete corpse!"

The elites of the Black Wind Hall understood the signal. They advanced with savage grins, closing in step by step.

Seeing his own security personnel swallowing nervously, Mr. Yuan Sr. sighed silently and ordered the security captain, "All of you, stand down. There’s no need for pointless sacrifices."

"Mr. Yuan Sr., we’ve already faced death once. If it comes to it, we’ll give our lives back to the Yuan family!" the security captain declared, shaking his head with firm resolve. They had almost lost their lives last time when they were knocked out by a sleep gas used by Iguchi Watanabe’s men. If Lin Fan hadn’t arrived with reinforcements, none of them would be alive today. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"Fine, you’ve got guts. I’ll make an example of you!" A bald henchman stepped out from the crowd, giving a thumbs-up before whipping out a short blade from behind his back.

A thunderous voice suddenly boomed from the estate entrance. "Make an example? Are you even worthy?"

BOOM! BOOM BOOM!

Immediately after, the continuous roar of engines thundered across the sky above the estate! Everyone was stunned and turned toward the sound. They saw a convoy of black vans, packed with men, barreling in recklessly. Leading the charge was a familiar black Bentley.

"Mr. Yuan Sr.! It’s—it’s the Second Young Lady’s car! They’re not dead! It must be Young Master Fan coming to save us!"

"Thank heavens! The Yuan family is saved!"

The Yuan family members cried and shouted in overwhelming joy. Mr. Yuan Sr. and Yuan Tao exchanged a glance, quietly relieved, their spirits soaring.

The security captain and his men, who had been extremely tense, all jolted. They were suddenly invigorated as if injected with adrenaline, becoming ecstatic.

This is great, truly great! With Lin Fan, the God of Killing, on the scene, who the hell would dare to act up now?!
