Super War God in the City-Chapter 492: Unfit for Reuse!
As Old Master Tang approached, many people around began whispering, especially Young Master Tang's former companions and cronies.
"I had heard before that Young Master Tang had fallen in the inland, and his whereabouts have been unknown recently—it turns out he is truly dead. Fate is unpredictable indeed, and who knows who was so bold as to dare kill Tang Tiancheng!" a young gentleman sighed, astonished.
"Heh, frankly, I've known about this for a while, but it's the Tang Family who kept it under wraps, and it wasn't ours to share.
I have a friend in the inland who was at the scene when Young Master Tang fell in Binzhou. Right after the incident occurred, the Tang Family imposed a gag order on those present!" another person murmured profoundly.
"Brother, you are well-informed! I wonder who this powerful figure is, daring to challenge the Tang Family's territory!" the previous person curiously asked.

"Heh—you guess—aside from the Martial Arts World, how many in the Secular World would dare!" the young man hinted meaningfully.
"Hiss~" Several people who were all ears immediately gasped.
"It's someone from the Martial Arts World. The Tang Family has considerable influence, and even the Martial Arts World would not easily commit such a drastic act. I wonder which ruthless faction from the Martial Arts World it was!" several young gentlemen immediately gathered around whispering and speculating.
At that moment, Elder Tang stood in the center and glanced over the crowd, began, "Thank you, everyone, for attending this memorial banquet today. Due to some special reasons, this tragic news was not disclosed earlier!"
"Let me tell you, the murderer is from the Martial Arts World, and even has significant influence in the international Underworld. Don't laugh, but we haven't managed to catch the killer yet!
However, my Tang Family isn't easy to mess with; this time, no matter what tricks and backing the opponent has, I, Tang Liang, here solemnly swear to kill this thief and avenge my grandson's spirit in heaven!
Everyone present here today will be the witness!"
As Tang Liang finished speaking, applause burst forth from the crowd, led by the Tang Family's vassal families and forces.
Today, Elder Tang organized this memorial banquet primarily to restore the dignity and face of the Tang Family, which had suffered significantly due to Tang Hongyi's actions.
"Old Master speaks well—the killer indeed must have had the gall of a bear and the heart of a panther. It seems Old Master is quite confident this time!" someone immediately bootlicked.
"Heh, need you say more? It appears the opponent is tough, otherwise Old Master wouldn't have been this patient. Only the Tang Family could act like this; we smaller families could only swallow our grievances and resign ourselves to bad luck!" another small family's spokesperson said, flattering with a smile.
Old Master Tang, upon hearing this, smiled slightly inside. These words were precisely what he wanted to hear today.
On the side, Tang Hongyi felt embarrassed. During this period, he had heard from his subordinates reporting all kinds of whispers and rumors spreading outside, even causing the Tang Family's reputation to fall significantly.
It came to the point where the family's stocks dropped significantly, which made him internally depressed and furious, yet he had never anticipated that Old Master's intervention would immediately change the situation.
At this moment, he finally understood the true intention behind Old Master organizing this memorial banquet, and also why his daughter Tang Anqi said it was urgent to inform Old Master and other family members about this matter.
"Indeed, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure!" Tang Hongyi couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Actually, this expression was just a way to describe people like Tang Liang—only someone with such a high level of experience and vision could have such an effect; ordinary folks didn't possess such concepts and awareness.
When people grow old, they can't move or work, and even serving tea and delivering water requires a Scout's effort, not to mention the reluctance to deal with dragging one along.
It's hard to grow old, hard to grow old, and that's a description of the ordinary people's plight in old age, far from Tang Liang's so-called 'like having a treasure'.
Therefore, when young, one must enrich one's wisdom, so as not to be despised when confined to bed one day!
Tang Anqi scanned the gathered crowd—today, many renowned and influential figures had attended, even representatives from the other three major families. Among them were Superman Li's grandson, Li Zhe, Zheng Nan from the Zheng Family, and Huo Yingbo from the Huo Family.
Moved by a thought, Tang Anqi spoke softly, "If anyone here today can avenge my brother, I, Tang Anqi, vow here and now to give myself to him!"
These words immediately caused quite a stir among the crowd, many of the young men flashing covetous gazes, their eyes lingering on Tang Anqi's figure, unable to tear themselves away!
Tang Anqi was dressed in a short skirt, flesh-colored tights, and black high heels with red soles today, which accentuated her well-shaped, slender legs to a perfect straightness. The just-right length of the skirt incited boundless imagination.
Her upper body was adorned with a semi-transparent black mesh top, subtly revealing the color of the bra underneath.
This sensual outfit combined with her striking beauty had quite a few distinguished young gentlemen openly salivating, incapable of hiding their lustful expressions.
Tang Anqi, noticing the buzz around the room from the corner of her eye, nodded inwardly. However, she was unimpressed by these common contenders.
Old Master Tang stood silently to the side, his eyes, however, betrayed a hint of admiration. His granddaughter knew how to leverage her assets to exert influence, truly a talent worth developing!
At that moment, a young man in the crowd pondered briefly before stepping forward.
Seeing this, the crowd's attention shifted instantly. They looked up in surprise, and some of the more impetuous pretenders immediately quelled the restless little flames in their hearts.
Tang Anqi also noticed this advancing figure from the corner of her eye. Turning her head to look, she realized it was none other than Li Zhe from the Li Family.
Tang Anqi's eyes brightened slightly. Li Zhe was tall and handsome, with an impressive background. Clad in a crisp suit, his demeanor was extraordinary, and indeed, the two of them together made a striking pair.
"Anqi, your family has never openly taken a stand regarding Tiancheng's matter, and I didn't feel it was my place to say much before.
Back when Tiancheng was alive, we got along well, and even without your promise today, I had plans to help.
I had already looked into the person who attacked your brother. He was a youngster from the Martial Arts World, flaunting his skills and causing trouble in Binzhou, practically acting like a local emperor!" Li Zhe's calm words were filled with disdain.
The grand incident of Tang Tiancheng's murder couldn't be hidden from someone of his stature. Right after the incident occurred, he had specifically investigated Ling Fan.
In his opinion, aside from Ling Fan's decent cultivation and his reckless, lawless behavior, he really couldn't see anything special about him.
He also knew that after Tang Hongyi made a failed attempt, he had holed up, which puzzled him at first. Later, he discovered that Tang Hongyi hadn't informed any other members of his family and was brooding over it alone.
For this, he had even secretly lamented that Elder Tang Hongyi lacked backbone—devoid of both courage and strategy, no wonder Old Master Tang was adamant about splitting the family assets and authority.
It turned out that Tang Hongyi was not cut out to lead; through this matter, one could clearly see someone's strengths and flaws!
PS: It's awkward, the new rental is an old building, the window seals haven't been changed in twenty years, they rattle in the wind just like a twenty-year-old bicycle—except for the bell, everything else makes a noise!
I've been wanting to replace them, and just this morning, an old man was going door-to-door downstairs, offering to service the window rollers—you know how it is, so I called him over.
Because the windows were too old and deformed, the old man couldn't remove them by himself, so I helped him all morning. By the time we finished, it was already the afternoon, which delayed my writing!
But don't worry, even if I have to take a Power Pill, I'll make sure to deliver at least three updates today~~~
