Chapter 405 Detain

"How disrespectful!" The second Elder said, dissatisfaction lacing his face. "We are your Elders! Is this what that silly mother of yours has taught you?" He was about to say more when another elder tugged his arm, making him swallow his next words. He immediately glared at the First Elder.

"Jiang Yue… why don't you come here to the mansion, so we can talk?" The First Elder calmly suggested. "I understand that you are mad because we have tried to attack your man, but it was only a warning. We didn't intend to kill him."

Jiang Yue's sarcastic laugh immediately echoed inside the room after First Elder's words. Did those people still think that she was that dumb after what had happened to Gideon?

"Listen up, old fools!"

"I am done playing your game!" She said as her expression turned serious. "This time, you will be playing my game."

"How arrogant! You…"

The Second Elder's words suddenly were interrupted by what was shown on the screen of the tablet.

"You…"

"Yes… me." Jiang Yue's voice was full of provocation as she continued. "If I am right, it's you and everyone inside the Li Family's estate."

"Now… one wrong move and the space weapon, you are so proud of, will blast everyone inside that room!"

Her words made everyone in the room speechless. Even the First Elder was so shocked by her words that he was not able to stop his eyes from widening. His usually stoic expression immediately disappeared. Did that mean that Jiang Yue was the one who had annihilated the whole Kim Family from the surface of this planet?

"Yes. You are right." Jiang Yue answered as if she was able to read everyone's thoughts. "The King is dead, the Kim Family is gone. If you dare to do something that will irritate me, you will watch me destroy your family next."

"Jiang Yue… Child… why are you doing this? If you want the throne, we will gladly give it to you. It is rightfully yours anyway… do you want money? Influence? We can give you everything you want. You just need to tell us!" One of the elders decided to change their approach while sending subtle hints towards the other elders as well. Jiang Yue seemed to be very irritated at that moment. They couldn't afford to irritate her any further.

"The Fifth Elder is right… Yue'er why don't we talk about this? Tell us what is it that you want? We will do anything to give it to you." The Third Elder added.

The elders were not dumb at all, with the space weapon in Jiang Yue's hands, they instantly realized that she was practically untouchable at that moment. That weapon was something that they had secretly designed. It was specially made to deal with the Vercello Family. They never even imagined that there would be a time that the weapon, which they had personally made, would be used against them.

"Let me tell you what I actually want…" Jiang Yue made a deliberate pause. "I want you to sit tight on your spots. No need to do or say anything. Just watch me change everything! Don't worry... I am not planning to kill anyone... Yet..."

"Just don't provoke me. Never touch my family or anyone I love again. Or you can say goodbye to your family and watch them burn with you."

"Remember! I am watching you! Always!" She narrowed her eyes and gave them an eerie smile.

Then, the video ended.

The silence that surrounded all the elders after Jiang Yue ended her video was deafening. It was deadly, as every one of the elders felt a suffocating aura lace the entire room.

*Bam!*

"How dare she threaten us?" One of the elders couldn't control himself anymore.

"Ahhhhh! I can't take this! I need to kill her! I need to kill her!" The Second Elder got up from his seat and paced around the room.

"One more thing!" Once again, Jiang Yue's voice echoed inside the room, making the elders want to cry… How could she hack their security system in a matter of seconds?

"You are not allowed to leave your seats until I say so," she said. "Make one move. Just one, and I will burn one of your properties in this country."

"The satellite has sensors. If it detects you out of this room. Your family will suffer the consequences. Everything is being recorded…"

"Are you trying to illegally detain us?" The Second Elder bellowed. "Do you think that you can do that with us? We have been around for tens of years! You can't defeat us!"

"So rude!" Jiang Yue rolled her eyes. "Let me finish, you fool!" Everyone heard as Jiang Yue typed something on her computer. "As a punishment, I will blow the island that the Li Family owns just fifty miles away from M Country."

She did not let them say another word as she showed them a live video of the moment the satellite fired missiles at the island.

"Now… are you ready to listen to me?" She smirked at their ghastly pale appearances.

"Once again… I am showing how easy it is for me to destroy you and your entire family. I can do it just in a few seconds. The moment you took one step out of that room, I will blow one place after another and let you watch as your country burn in front of you."

Everyone swallowed their nonexistent saliva as they continued listening to Jiang Yue's instructions. She was right, she could obliterate them in a matter of seconds. For now, they could only listen to her words and act obediently. Then, they could plan on the counter-attacking after she was gone.

Jiang Yue laid beside Fu Jin the moment she cut her video call with the Li Elders. A devious smile made way onto her face, as she stared at the man beside her. Because of what the Li Family had done to Fu Jin, she would let them watch her change their beloved country.

She would torture them with stress and anxiety, letting them feel that she would kill them once they made a wrong move. Then, she would change the country that they had painstakingly built.

After all, was there something more painful than watching how something you loved so much getting destroyed in front of you?
