Return of the King, Dominating the City

Chapter 1832 - 1716: This Bastard

Song Yun shook his head, stood up and said, "It’s not me who’s ungrateful, but you who are cruel-hearted. Although both you and your brother are my enemies, your behavior of betraying your own brother is utterly shameless. Furthermore, even if your brother is strong, if he dares to assassinate me, there will only be one outcome—death!"

Having said this, Song Yun walked out of the café without turning back.

Tang Jia hadn’t expected that his attempt to inform Song Yun would be met with disdain, making his heart feel increasingly unbalanced.

He shouted angrily at Song Yun’s back, "It’s not me who’s shameless, it’s Tang Xiaoyun who’s shameless. We’re twin brothers, so why is he so gifted while I’m merely average? It’s not fair; it’s because he stole my talent. This is theft; he’s a thief! Originally, all this glory should have belonged to me!"

Song Yun ignored Tang Jia; this person made him feel sick.

The fact that he would betray his own brother out of jealousy and attempt to harm his brother was a sign of psychological distortion.

Of course, Song Yun wouldn’t dislike Tang Jia so much that he would consider Tang Xiaoyun a friend.

On the contrary, he was even more vigilant of Tang Xiaoyun. The current chaotic waters had not become clearer; instead, they became murkier with the emergence of these hidden families or sects.

The Tang Family wasn’t making a move now because they were not confident.

Another half month passed, and one day, Tang Jia was actually waiting for him at the entrance of the Shura Alliance Branch in Yanjing.

Tang Jia stood at the entrance of the Shura Alliance Branch but did not enter.

He knew Song Yun was not to be trifled with. If he infringed upon Song Yun’s territory, he was afraid of getting his legs broken again.

One must know that he had been recuperating for almost half a month, and the family had spent quite a lot on rare treasures to heal him. If his leg were broken again, surely no one in the family would care for him anymore.

"Why are you looking for me? If it’s nothing, just leave, I’m really not in the mood to see you right now. Your mere presence irritates me."

Song Yun looked at Tang Jia in front of him, even though the other had informed him of the Tang family’s revenge, he still didn’t think much of Tang Jia.

Such a person who would betray even his own family, he fundamentally despised.

Tang Jia was somewhat afraid of Song Yun, and he shrank his neck, saying, "I’m here to tell you some news."

"Betraying your family again?"

Song Yun showed a disdainful look and said coldly, "Aren’t you afraid of being executed by your family for doing this?"

Tang Jia seemed indifferent, showing a resentful look, "In their eyes, I’m no different from a dead man. The Tang family doesn’t care about me; all their attention is on my brother Tang Xiaoyun."

"Haha, if they didn’t care about you, last time when I crippled you, they wouldn’t have saved you but rather thrown you onto the back mountain to die by yourself. Wouldn’t that be better?"

Song Yun shook his head, unwilling to waste words with Tang Jia, "Just tell me, what do you want to inform me about today? If the information is worthless, I don’t mind crippling another one of your legs."

Since Tang Jia came to deliver news, although Song Yun despised him, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to not listen to what Tang Jia had to say.

Tang Jia’s face turned serious, and he asked, "Do you know about the Liu Family?"

"Liu Family? Never heard of it."

Song Yun shook his head.

Tang Jia looked puzzled, mumbling, "Don’t know the Liu Family? How could you not know anything?"

"Not my business; why should I know everything? Besides, with so many Liu Families across the country, must I know them all?"

Song Yun shrugged indifferently.

Tang Jia frowned, his voice deep, "The Liu Family is very strong, just like the Tang Family, and we are related by marriage. I received news that the Liu Family is interested in the potion on you."

So it’s the Liu Family! Never heard of them!

Song Yun raised an eyebrow, having heard rumors before about people being interested in his potion and the changes after taking it. Now Tang Jia brought concrete news.

He looked into Tang Jia’s eyes, seeing no sign of deceit, and asked, "Since the Liu Family wants Starfall Dust, why haven’t they made a move?"

Tang Jia replied, "As far as I know, they were planning to act, but after knowing my Fourth Uncle Tang Chuan was easily defeated by you, they halted their original plan."

Song Yun asked, "What are they planning now?"

Tang Jia’s expression turned grave, "Liu Family members visited my home before; I don’t know the details, but it seems both families are working together."

Song Yun pondered for a moment and asked, "Two families joining forces definitely involves dividing benefits. Do you know how they plan to cooperate?"

Tang Jia said, "It seems the Liu Family helps us kill you, and they take two-thirds of the potion, leaving one-third for the Tang Family."

With shared interests and a common goal, it’s nearly impossible for Song Yun to divide the two families.

He looked at cunning Tang Jia and asked, "Why are you telling me this?"

Tang Jia answered, "Because I fear that after the Liu and Tang Families join forces, they’ll kill you. If that happens, my hope for you to kill my brother Tang Xiaoyun will be dashed. So before Tang Xiaoyun fights you, I don’t want you dead; you must stay alive."

Song Yun doubted, "Now that Tang and Liu Families are allies, they won’t wait for your brother to move unless your brother alone is more formidable than the alliance."

"No, my brother is indeed strong, but he’s definitely not surpassing both families combined."

Tang Jia shook his head, sneering, "However, he is very proud and disdainful of teaming up with others. Once back at the Tang family, he won’t allow others to act against you and will insist on a one-on-one duel with you. So, as long as you don’t die too soon, it’s fine."

Haha.

Song Yun chuckled lightly, a smile tugging at his lips as he said, "He’s rather interesting. I’m somewhat intrigued by the prospect of fighting him; at least killing him wouldn’t tarnish my hands."

Tang Jia cautioned, "Don’t underestimate him; his talent is genuinely high and his fighting power strong."

"I don’t need you worrying about that."

Song Yun snorted coldly, showing no friendliness towards Tang Jia, "Is there any other news? If not, leave."

Tang Jia protested, "I’ve given you such vital information; can’t you be a bit more cordial to me?"

"Some people, even if they’re enemies, deserve respect; some, even if allies, are disdainful."

Song Yun retorted to Tang Jia, turning to walk into the Shura Alliance Branch.

Tang Jia shouted after him, "Am I an ally or an enemy then?"

"Whether an ally or an enemy, you’re not qualified."

Song Yun didn’t turn his head and continued walking into the branch.

Tang Jia’s face turned ugly, his finger pointing at Song Yun’s back as he roared, "Song Yun, don’t be so arrogant, or you won’t live to see my brother return. Then all this information I gave you will be wasted, damn it, this bastard is so conceited."
