Chapter 254: Tower of No Return

"What the— Who the hell are you?" the man wearing pink yelled as he eyed the now fallen guard."What did you do with the— someone calls the head guard!"

"That would be useless. Don't worry, I didn't kill them. After all, I am being nice."

"You— you put them to sleep and barge in, and you still call yourself nice?"

"Please sit down. Don't worry, I am not here to discuss sinister stuff. Where is my seat?" she asked.

"You— " A man suddenly stood from his seat and pointed a gun at Lyca. Without saying anything, he pulled the trigger, surprising everyone in the room.

"Mr. Ling! What are you— "

"Eh?" Everyone widened their eyes when they realized that the woman was no longer in front of them but was standing behind Mr. Ling. "Seems like you wanted your family to lose a patriarch?" Lyca didn't wait for the man to answer as she raised her hand and slit the man's throat.

"What the hell!?"

"My goodness!"

"What are you doing!?"

Almost immediately screams and surprised gasps echoed inside the room. Most men sat frozen and stared at Mr. Ling who was holding his bleeding neck, struggling before falling into the table, dead. The thick smell of blood shrouded the room. "Now, ladies and gents, let me ask you again. Where is my seat?" she smiled at the frozen people inside the room.

"You— Who are you?" This time, an obvious fear can be seen in everyone's eyes. The woman just killed someone because he shot at her. She didn't even hesitate to end a man's life and smiled as if nothing happened! "And why are you here?" In the man's eyes, this woman should be here to become the new leader of the territory. Why else would a monster like this suddenly appear out of nowhere… "Wait… you look familiar."

"Do you know her?"

"I think she looks… "

"My chair?" Lyca ignored their question. First and foremost, she was already tired, and the lack of food is making her mood turned sour.

"You can take my seat." A man with a square face and long hair stood and gave her his own seat before he grabbed the seat from the person who just died.

"Thank you." Lyca smiled before she calmly sat. "Now, let's start talking about the meeting."

"What meeting?"

"What is she talking about?"

"Is she going to talk without even introducing herself?"

"I think she is Q's wife."

The last statement silence everyone inside the room. Everyone stared at her, their expressions grave. If she was Q's wife, then what could this mean for them? Will she lead the territory now that her husband is dead? However, not all of them became wary. In fact, the man wearing pink immediately sneered. "What's with all this fuss? If you are Q's wife, then how dare you to kill one of ours? We are paying Q for our safety! How dare you act against one of us? Didn't you know that your husband received a few tens of millions from each of us for our protection?"

"Tsk. Tsk." Lyca clicked her tongue in response. "What do you think will happen if all of you will die?"

"You— you can't say that— " A man wearing a blue coat uttered.

"Why are you so scared of her Hum? Such a p*ssy! She can't do anything to us. If we die, what would happen to the money that we gave to Q? Our heir would— " the man in pink paused when he saw Lyca smiling.

"If you die, your heirs will bury you, and they will start giving me money to protect them." Lyca wanted to laugh when she saw fear flashed in the man's eyes.

"You can't do that!"

"Why can't I?" Lyca asked, amused. As expected, talking like this is still easier than having negotiations. Isn't it better to coerce people? That would make her job easier. She silently patted her own shoulders. "Do you think, you can stop me if I kill you now?"

"We will call the— "

"Please…" Lyca interrupted. This is already a lawless City, where the police feared the gangs and criminals. Isn't this why she chose to settle in this City? She fought the urge to roll her eyes. "You can only do that if you can dial faster than the knife that would fly towards your head." She smirked. "Now, what was that again? The purpose of this meeting?"

Again, silence followed her words. This was because they realized what she was saying was actually true. If she killed them now, the police would probably rule this as some problems related to gangs. They would never suspect this woman as she wasn't someone known. They might even think that the people who killed them are from the other Territories!

Then this case would be close forever! So, what would happen if she kills them? Simple. Their heirs would bury them without any justice, then they would become the new clan head. Then they would give Q money to protect them. Business-wise, this move could make Q's business bigger as they could demand more money to ensure their safety!

The man in pink shivered as he looked at Lyca's sinister smile. Shen Qui never talked to them like this! The man never threatened them at all! This was the reason why they were so confident. It was because Shen Qui doesn't care about their actions and would only intervene if it would affect his territory. However, now that Shen Qui is dead then… "Are you— Are you planning to take over the territory?"

"Hm?" Lyca lifted an eyebrow as she met the man in pink's eyes. "That would be a no." Why the hell would she want to work herself to death like that? If she would manage this territory, she would end up killing everyone who disobeyed her as that would be the quickest way to subdue them. "But… I am here to change the name of this tower and ask more money to ensure that you will survive this day without any bruises and wounds." She smiled. "Alright, first the name. I want to name it: The Tower of No Return! Any objections?"

"…"

"…"
