Chapter 1309: Chapter 1359: Complete Fallout
Li Yifei never expected Ma Dongxiang’s willpower to be so strong, no matter what method of interrogation he used. Ma Dongxiang stuck to her story, claiming that her son was given to her by someone else and insisting that she didn’t know who sent the child. She steadfastly maintained that the child had a birthmark under his arm.
If Ma Dongxiang were someone who had undergone rigorous training like Li Yifei, it wouldn’t be surprising that she could fabricate lies even in such circumstances. However, Ma Dongxiang was a daughter from a prominent family, living a privileged life after marrying into the Sunx Family. How could she possibly possess such resilience?
This almost seemed to suggest that Ma Dongxiang was telling the truth.
"Honey, how did it go?"
Su Mengxin was waiting at the door when Li Yifei emerged from the basement. Since the situation involved their son, no one could be more anxious than her.
Li Yifei explained the situation honestly and then slowly said, "It seems what Ma Dongxiang said is indeed true. However, it’s still impossible to confirm whether the child is ours."
Su Mengxin, having already prepared herself for the worst, managed to remain composed and said, "I feel it’s false. The other party is clearly exploiting Ma Dongxiang’s hatred for our Li family, deliberately sending a child to harm us. It’s not uncommon for children to have birthmarks there. There’s another way to confirm—conduct a DNA test. I’ve already located the remains of the child and arranged for DNA testing. Soon, we’ll know whether this child is ours."
This was undeniably a practical approach, and Su Mengxin had already taken steps to implement it. Li Yifei and Su Mengxin immediately went to perform the test.
Even with their connections, the results would not be available for another two days, making the waiting period excruciating for Li Yifei and Su Mengxin. Though Li Yifei had a strong feeling that the child couldn’t possibly be his, it seemed absurd that someone capable of abducting his son for three months without making any demands would then hand the child over to someone like Ma Dongxiang.
Before the results came out, however, the Song Family and Sunx Family had already come knocking.
The representatives of both families included their clan chiefs—Elder of the Song Family, Song Zude, and Sunx Fugui—as well as several important members of their clans.
The two factions stood in front of the Li family courtyard. Song Zude and Sunx Fugui wore stormy expressions. They had learned about the death of Song Ziqiao and the abduction of Ma Dongxiang but were clueless about the reasons behind these events. All they knew was that Song Ziqiao and Ma Dongxiang had conspired to target Li Yifei.
Regardless of the cause, the deaths of members of their own families were unacceptable, and that alone justified their demand for retribution.
"Outrageous! Tell Li Yifei to get out here, right now!" Song Zude roared, slamming his hand fiercely against the gate and yelling at the guards inside. They had already waited for over ten minutes yet hadn’t seen any trace of Li Yifei. The guards stubbornly refused to let them in.
Inside stood two security guards, both with somber expressions. One of them said in a stern voice, "Elder, please behave yourself. Our gates are equipped with automatic sensors, and any attempt to forcibly break in might lead to unpredictable complications."
"Blasphemous! Who the hell do you think you are to talk to me like this? If Li Yifei doesn’t show his face soon, I’ll tear this gate down myself!"
The Song Family was the most powerful clan in the province, and no family dared to disrespect them. Even rival clans had to yield to them publicly. Yet the Li family, merely a minor clan within the city, dared to defy them—despite their connections, this level of arrogance was intolerable.
"Unless our boss gives his order, you cannot enter. One more warning: any further offensives will be met with retaliation," one of the guards replied bluntly.
"Retaliation?" Song Zude sneered. "You lowly lackeys want respect from me? The audacity of the Li family is truly astonishing!"
While Song Zude was boiling with rage over the death of Song Ziqiao, Sunx Fugui was equally anxious over the abduction of his daughter-in-law. His expression was dark as he snapped, "Why haven’t you reported to your boss yet? What’s taking so long?"
"Perhaps he’s busy, or perhaps he simply doesn’t care to deal with you," came the curt response from the guards.
The Li family had not concealed the events surrounding Li Yifei and had no intention of backing down. Its members were even itching to settle accounts with the Song Family and Sunx Family, though awaiting Li Yifei’s command kept them restrained. Now, with these families showing up uninvited, it was a minor miracle that they hadn’t charged out to confront them directly.
"Take down the damn gate!" Song Zude bellowed, commanding his men.
Two armored cars—a pair of bulletproof Mercedes-Benz—revved up instantly. While crashing into the iron gates would certainly cause some damage to the vehicles, it was guaranteed to break through the gates under ordinary circumstances.
Sunx Fugui and Song Zude both smirked, unafraid of escalating the situation. With Song Ziqiao dead and Ma Dongxiang seized, they had ample reason to demand retribution, indifferent to potential repercussions from other factions.
The two vehicles accelerated to over 100 miles per hour and charged at the gate.
However, five meters before reaching the gates, steel pillars suddenly shot up from the ground. Each pillar was twenty centimeters in diameter, capable of halting any vehicle, even a truck.
The cars crashed violently into the steel barriers, flipping over on impact. The force pushed them closer to the gate, but just two meters away, the ground in front of the gate abruptly lifted, flinging the vehicles backward like giant fans.
The two Mercedes landed heavily, their drivers already unconscious. Fortunately, the cars’ bulletproof designs spared them from being crushed outright. In standard vehicles, the occupants might have been killed instantly.
Sunx Fugui and Song Zude were stunned. The level of security at the Li family’s gates was beyond abnormal—it was outright monstrous!
"Outrageous!" Song Zude roared, striding up to the gate. "I’d like to see how you plan to stop me!"
Sunx Fugui wouldn’t let Song Zude go alone and marched alongside him. Reaching the gate together, they both lifted their legs to kick at it.
"Ah!" The moment their feet touched the gate, an electric current surged through, leaving them paralyzed and slumped on the ground.
Their men rushed to pick them up, finding their faces pale. Though the shock wasn’t lethal, it was enough to overwhelm men of their age.
"What’s happening?" Li Yifei’s voice came from behind the gate.
Sunx Fugui and Song Zude finally saw the person they had been waiting for. Their fury grew exponentially. Song Zude sprang up, his eyes blazing, and roared, "Li Yifei! As a clan chief, you killed my grandson? Return my grandson’s life!"
Sunx Fugui followed suit, bellowing, "Li Yifei! I’ve exercised great patience with you, but you captured my daughter-in-law this time. You’ve gone too far! If I keep tolerating you, my Sunx Family will lose face in the province!"
Li Yifei stood inside the gate, his expression dark, and replied coldly, "So much for your claim of patience... Song Zude, Sunx Fugui, your Song Family’s Song Ziqiao and Sunx Family’s Ma Dongxiang kidnapped my son, strapped a bomb to him, and blew him to pieces. I haven’t even begun settling this score with you, yet you dare come here accusing me?"
"What?" The two men gasped in shock.
Li Yifei’s icy glare pierced them as he declared, "I don’t care whether you were involved or ignorant of the matter. What I do know is that my Li family was humiliated, and this matter won’t be left unresolved. Here and now, I declare: from this moment on, my Li family and your Song Family and Sunx Family are enemies for life. Unless your two families are completely eradicated, I will not rest!"
Sunx Fugui and Song Zude’s faces darkened. Even if Li Yifei’s claims were true, they had their own grievances—Song Ziqiao was dead, and Ma Dongxiang was held captive. Both families had suffered significant losses. As clan chiefs, they couldn’t show weakness in the face of such threats.
Song Zude responded with a deep, chilling laugh that abruptly stopped. His face turned grim as he said, "Eradication, huh? I’d like to see how you plan to achieve that. Know this—starting today, the Song Family will not allow the Li family to exist in this province. We are officially at war!"
Sunx Fugui yelled furiously, "Li Yifei, don’t think that my previous forbearance means we fear you. Release Ma Dongxiang immediately, or brace yourself for retaliation!"
The prospect of two major families declaring war against the Li family created a monumental crisis. Given the Li family’s power, it seemed impossible for them to withstand such combined might. novelbuddy.cσ๓
Song Zude and Sunx Fugui thought Li Yifei’s declaration was absurd, mocking his decision as childish and reckless. Cold smirks flickered across their faces—they would make Li Yifei regret his choice.
But Li Yifei merely gave them a frosty look, his lips parting to utter one word: "Leave!"
Infuriated, Song Zude and Sunx Fugui trembled violently, yelling in unison, "You’ll regret saying that word!" before turning to board their cars.
