Billionaire God of War novel (Jiang Ning)
Chapter 683 Waiting in Formation

Swoosh!

The masked man disappeared in an instant, leaving behind a dead body with a horrified expression on the ground.

Meanwhile.

Back at the Tan house in the northern mountains.

Tan Xing had been waiting for news for a long time.

After he found out from Jiang Ning that someone who knew Tiger and Crane Fists had appeared, he had a bad premonition.

So he quickly sent someone he trusted out to see if his guess was right. They agreed that he had to send a message every hour to show that he was still alive.

But it had been five hours since the last message and there was no response.

"He should have reached that place by now. I suppose he ran into trouble." There was a tinge of anger in Tan Xing's eyes, but there was also worry and wariness. "If that's the case, that means..."

He swallowed hard and clenched his fists slightly. "Things are going to get troublesome then."

Tan Xing didn't hesitate. He immediately gave Jiang Ning a call. The Tan family couldn't resolve such a big issue by themselves.

If those people really decided to go mad, then it wasn't just the martial arts world that would be turned upside down. The entire world would be topsy turvy!

Nobody could bear such consequences at all!

That was a group of mad men.

It wasn't so bad if they worked separately. But if someone was actually making use of them as a group...that was a thought that was too scary for even Tan Xing to imagine.

Tan Xing now knew why someone like Jiang Ning was willing to walk into the darkness to find the darkest thing and destroy it even though he could have lived as a well respected man who had everything in life.

"Come to the Tan house, I have an important discovery." That was all Tan Xing said over the phone.

This sort of thing should not remain as a guess. Perhaps after Jiang Ning came and they exchanged moves, they would all be certain.

After hanging up, Tan Xing stood in front of the ancestral hall for an entire afternoon and watched the sun go down. He had a very bad feeling in his heart.

It was as if something extremely terrifying was making its way to the Tan house right now.

"Tan Long!" Tan Xing suddenly shouted out.

Swoosh!

A figure immediately appeared in front of Tan Xing.

"Master Tan!"

"Tell the eight bloodlines to activate our strongest defense!" Tan Xing's expression was more solemn than usual.

Tan Long was stunned. He didn't understand why Tan Xing had said this.

He didn't understand why they needed to activate their strongest defense at a time like this. The Tan family wasn't as great as the used to be, but they were still a respectable and reputable sect in the north, so very few would offend them.

Even the powerful families of the north only tried to recruit them or get them on their side, but they would never dare to be disrespectful.

"Master Tan, have things become so serious?"

Tan Long never opposed Tan Xing's words, but he didn't understand why Tan Xing

sent this order out.

Tan Xing narrowed his eyes and stared at Tan Long. His tone of voice was even more solemn now.

"It is a matter of life and death!" he shouted sternly.

Tan Long's expression changed and he didn't dare to ask anymore. He quickly ran off to inform the rest.

A matter of life and death! This was very serious indeed.

Tan Xing didn't look like he was joking at all.

Was this a matter of life and death for the Tan family? What sort of enemy was the Tan family expecting?

Everyone in the family was in an uproar.

After the men in charge of the bloodlines heard this order, they were initially surprised and thought Tan Xing had said the wrong thing.

When did they ever have to activate their strongest defense after all these years?

Nobody would make trouble for the Tan family.

Even if they did, the Tan family was powerful enough to make sure he didn't make it out alive.

"Tan Long, is that what Master Tan really said?" one of them frowned slightly and asked. "He said this is a matter of life and death for the family?"

They didn't believe it. Or rather, even if they knew that they had to obey Tan Xing's orders, they were unhappy with it.

Tan Xing's recent decisions had caused the reputation of the Tan family to go down, and they had lost quite some benefits as a result as well. But as long as Tan Xing was still alive, they knew that he called the shots in the family and nobody could go against him.

"Humph, this is an order!" Tan Long shouted back without bothering to be polite at all. "Don't think that I don't know what all of you are thinking about! I will just say this once!"

"Whoever dares to go against Master Tan is a sinner of this household! I, Tan Long, will kill him myself!"

His threatening words made all the ones in charge shudder and they didn't dare to hesitate any longer.

Everyone in the Tan family was quickly mobilized. All eight bloodlines sent out their best fighters to guard the main gate of the house. All the elderly, women and children were sent to the large house behind the ancestral hall and there was plenty of food and water for them.

They were waiting in formation and prepared to fight!
