78: Chapter 79: The Tianyu Royal Family Takes Action 78: Chapter 79: The Tianyu Royal Family Takes Action Gone?
Luo Qingtong laughed.
"When did this happen?" she asked indifferently, her face showing not the slightest hint of surprise.
"It was the day when the incident at Zuihong Building occurred, right after the Marquis left and you, Miss, entered the secret chamber."
The guard half-knelt before Luo Qingtong, reporting respectfully.
This was one of Old Master Luo's personal Iron Guards, staunchly loyal and heeding only the commands of Old Master Luo himself.
Of course, now Luo Qingtong was also included.
"We are incompetent, Third Lady was abducted en route.
We have searched the entire Fenglin City to no avail, finding not a single trace related to the Third Lady!
Please punish us, Miss!"
Guilt was written all over the Iron Guard's face.
Luo Xinning was abducted on his watch, and he was gravely uneasy for failing to fulfill the orders of the Marquis and Miss.
He had been standing guard outside the study all these days, waiting for Luo Qingtong to emerge so he could report to her immediately.
"No matter, this isn't your fault.
There are some forces you simply can't withstand!"
Luo Qingtong knew all too well what was going on!
The Tianyu Royal Family acted swiftly, didn't they?
Did they kidnap the person the moment they received the news?
It wasn't in vain that she had people carry the unconscious and blood-vomiting Luo Xinning ostentatiously through half the city from Zuihong Building back to the mansion, making sure the incident was known throughout the city!
Now it seems that they truly acted to clean up Yu Wenxue's mess!
Luo Qingtong sneered coldly.
This also confirmed that there have always been elements of the Tianyu Royal Family lurking within Fenglin City!
Yet knowing Yu Wenxue's intentions to deal with the original owner and Luo Xinning's bribery and instigation, they did nothing to stop it!
They might have even promoted the development of events from behind the scenes!
Otherwise, how could Old Master Luo, with his overwhelming power in the Marquis Mansion of Dongli Country, not have received even a hint of information, and allowed the original owner to be completely outmaneuvered?
In the end, they almost didn't find a body!
"Very good," Luo Qingtong's smile was bold and enchanting.
She had just about gathered all the information she needed to know!
So then…
all grudges have their culprits and all debts have their debtors!
Tianyu Imperial Family, let's play this slow and steady!
Neither they nor Luo Xinning will escape!
Her blinded eyes must be avenged with blood to be truly settled!
"Alright, leave this matter alone," Luo Qingtong's voice was indifferent.
"You all take charge and manage the mansion's authority.
I need to step out for a while; when grandfather returns, tell him not to worry, I will be back soon!"
"Furthermore, during my absence, if anyone dares to cause trouble in the Luo Family, no matter who it is, show no mercy in killing them!"
Her words carried a resolute intent to kill.
The betrothal dissolution between the Luo and Yuwen Families will happen very soon!
It's inevitable that some might seize the opportunity to stir up trouble!
Especially those from the various branches of the Luo Family, not one of them is trouble-free!
Out of respect for Old Master Luo, Luo Qingtong would not treat them harshly.
But if anyone dares to collude with outsiders to stir up trouble within the Luo Family, then don't blame her for being impolite!
By then, regardless of who, they all must die!
Luo Qingtong wouldn't allow anything to go awry with the Luo Family on her watch!
"Yes!"
A chorus of Iron Guards accepted the order in unison.
Luo Qingtong nodded and strode out of the Luo Family's main gate.
She took a turn around the vicinity, swiftly setting up a highly concealed offensive and defensive formation!
If no one stirred up trouble in the Luo Family, all would be well!
But should anyone dare, she guaranteed a miserable death for them!
This was also Luo Qingtong's strategic defense, specifically arranged against the people of the Tianyu Imperial Family!
Who knows whether they would act against the Luo Family after being jilted in the betrothal?
Luo Qingtong had to make sure everything was in order before she could leave with peace of mind.
Having accomplished all this, she then nonchalantly left Fenglin City!
