"Since this mysterious force has left Japan, upon learning of the Shankou Family’s annihilation, they will surely return, but Mr. Lu, you are no longer there. Yet you must keep an eye on Japan’s every move. In other words, you need a pair of eyes, but other families are not trustworthy. You would definitely choose someone you trust to watch Japan, and that person is me, because I am your lover."

Listening to Dechuan Qianxiang’s confident words, Lu Tianxing’s lips slightly curved into a graceful arc: "According to what you’re saying, I must cooperate with you then. But how do you know I trust you?"

"Japan has always followed the commands of the strong. You are a strong person in my heart."

Dechuan Qianxiang slowly spoke: "With me keeping an eye on Japan, you can leave Japan without worry. Whatever this mysterious force does in Japan will only be advantageous to you, without harm. Moreover, your current situation can be described as being fraught with danger. The news of your arrival in Japan being leaked is likely someone wanting to use this opportunity to keep you in Tokyo permanently. And your coming to Tokyo to destroy the Shankou Family is surely a move to intimidate those forces, giving you a chance to catch your breath. So you need help, help that can assist you."

"You’re right, I do need help," Lu Tianxing said indifferently.

These matters might be secretive to ordinary people, but for families like the Dechuan Family, it’s not considered a secret.

Besides, Dechuan Qianxiang is an extremely intelligent woman. If she couldn’t figure this out, she would end up being a sacrificial pawn for the Dechuan Family.

"Do you still wish to refuse?"

Dechuan Qianxiang revealed a charming smile on her face: "You’ve gained a beautiful lover and the power of the whole Japan, a win-win situation with no harm."

It can be said, at this moment, Dechuan Qianxiang completely grasped Lu Tianxing’s mind, knowing what he wanted.

Lu Tianxing lit another cigarette for himself and spoke: "You’re right. For me, this is a beneficial deal with no downsides. I can’t find any reason to refuse."

"So, you agree with me then?"

Dechuan Qianxiang’s face immediately showed a hint of joy.

"Yes, I have agreed."

Lu Tianxing looked calmly at Dechuan Qianxiang, but his voice turned icy cold: "Though I agreed, it doesn’t mean I trust you."

"Don’t think that just because you’re pretty, I won’t dare to kill you. It’s not that no woman has died by my hand. If I find out you’ve done anything against me, or pose a threat to me or those around me, I wouldn’t hesitate to send you into hell myself."

Lu Tianxing sternly said: "Never doubt my words. I can bring you success, but I can equally destroy you."

Listening to Lu Tianxing’s cold and ruthless words, Dechuan Qianxiang took a deep breath. She could sense the strong killing intent in Lu Tianxing’s tone. It was clear to her that Lu Tianxing was not lying but stating a fact. If a day truly came, she believed Lu Tianxing would undoubtedly follow through.

...

The cold moonlight cast down from the sky, draping the world in a layer of silver gauze. Any other time, someone might appreciate such rare beauty. But not today; Tokyo was devoid of admirers. Even typically bustling Tokyo streets, for this time of night, had quieted down. Stores, usually open 24 hours, had closed early, leaving all of Tokyo eerily quiet.

About an hour later, Dechuan Qianxiang drove back to the Dechuan Family.

Of course, Lu Tianxing followed Dechuan Qianxiang back to the Dechuan Family. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Clearly, this was not due to Lu Tianxing being idle, but to fulfill his promise to Dechuan Qianxiang, enabling her to become the Clan Leader of the Dechuan Family. As Dechuan Qianxiang stated, he needed a pair of eyes in Japan, monitoring every move, including the appearance of the Heavenly God. Compared to trusting Dechuan Zhenye, Dechuan Qianxiang, intending to become his lover, was evidently more trustworthy.

After Dechuan Qianxiang parked the car, she opened the door and walked out with Lu Tianxing, heading straight into the villa.

At that moment, inside the villa, Dechuan Zhenye was not asleep but sitting on the sofa in the living room. His face showed undisguised excitement and enthusiasm, fully aware that after today, his Dechuan Family would rise to fame and regain the glory from shogunate times.

Suddenly, footsteps echoed at the entrance.

Upon hearing the footsteps, Dechuan Zhenye immediately looked towards the door. Seeing Lu Tianxing and Dechuan Qianxiang walking in from outside, he promptly stood up from the sofa and approached Lu Tianxing.

"Mr. Lu, are you alright?" Dechuan Zhenye asked, showing concern towards Lu Tianxing.

Of course, whether this was genuine concern or mere pretense was irrelevant to Lu Tianxing, as he planned to confront Dechuan Zhenye later.

Lu Tianxing replied indifferently: "I’m fine. It’s all thanks to the Dechuan Clan Leader’s assistance; otherwise, it wouldn’t have gone this smoothly."

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Dechuan Zhenye hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Mr. Lu, you’re joking. This was something I should have done."

As he spoke, Dechuan Zhenye made an inviting gesture and said to Lu Tianxing again, "Mr. Lu, please sit."

Lu Tianxing nodded, and without hesitation, sat directly on the sofa, lighting a cigarette, leisurely smoking.

Meanwhile, Dechuan Qianxiang stood by Lu Tianxing’s side like a devoted little wife, choosing not to sit.

"Mr. Lu, how did it go? Is the Shankou Family completely annihilated?" Dechuan Zhenye asked eagerly after seeing Lu Tianxing sit.

"Dechuan Clan Leader, you sure like to joke. If the Shankou Family wasn’t destroyed, how could I be standing here speaking with you?" Lu Tianxing replied indifferently as he looked at Dechuan Zhenye.

Though Dechuan Zhenye knew in his heart that the Shankou Family was gone, hearing Lu Tianxing casually confirm it made his heart still tremble: "Mr. Lu, since the Shankou Family is annihilated, about what you promised...".

"Rest assured, I am one to keep my word."

Before Dechuan Zhenye could finish, Lu Tianxing interrupted him and said calmly, "Since I promised the Dechuan Clan Leader to hand over all the Shankou Family’s power to the Dechuan Family, I won’t go back on that. Dechuan Clan Leader, you may go and take over the Shankou Family’s influence tomorrow, but...".
