The morning in the small village was very peaceful, filled with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers. It was in this peaceful environment that two figures swiftly flew out of the small village without alerting anyone.
Lanjiang City was quite a distance away from the small village. Along the way, Quan Yong introduced the situation in Lanjiang City to Feng Hao in detail, as well as what kind of faction House Wei was.
"House Wei is not a local faction born and raised in Lanjiang City, but an outsider. This is no secret in Lanjiang City. House Wei has established a foothold in Lanjiang City for several thousand years now. Due to their deep foundation, they were able to contend against the veteran faction, the Wu family, the moment they arrived in Lanjiang City. Now, they are not inferior to the Wu family at all. In Lanjiang City, they are also a leviathan level existence. There are no less than a hundred people in the direct line of descent, and if you include the side branches, they number in the thousands … Moreover, it is rumored that there are no less than ten experts of the Wu Huang realm within House Wei. Among them, there is an old ancestor of House Wei who has lived for more than seven hundred years. It is rumored that he has already unblocked seven orifices and reached the peak of the Wu Huang realm …"
As he spoke, there was still a trace of worry in Quan Yong's eyes.
There were many experts of the Wu Huang realm in House Wei. Would a young man like Feng Hao be able to handle all of them?
Deeply worried, he told Fenghao all the rumors he had heard about House Wei, hoping that Fenghao would back off and give up on this operation.
"How is House Wei doing in Lanjiang City?"
Feng Hao frowned slightly when he heard the enormous number of people in the family.
If they were all killed, rivers of blood would flow. Moreover, there would definitely be innocent people among these thousands of people. He did not want to kill too many.
"Sigh …"
Quan Yong sighed softly, shook his head, and said, "The Wei family has an extraordinary background. Rumor has it that they came from a small family clan in a large city. However, they must have offended someone they could not afford to offend, and that is why they have hidden themselves within Lanjiang City. Due to their rich foundation, the Wei family has always been unreasonable, and their methods are extremely tyrannical and bloody. During a treasure hunt, they even dared to kill a member of the Wu family. Because of this, the two families nearly fought to the death. However, the Wu family considered that even if they suppressed the Wei family, they would still suffer severe losses, and might even lose their status. Therefore, in the end, the matter was left unsettled … It is also because of the Wu family's repeated concessions that within Lanjiang City, other than the factions that have attached themselves to the Wu family, all the other factions, big and small, have been merged by the Wei family. Those who do not submit will be annihilated … If not for the City Lord's Mansion repeatedly stepping in, I'm afraid that even the Wu family would be moved against."
"House Wei is actually so overbearing."
As he listened to the various rumors that Quan Yong spoke of, a cold glint flickered in Feng Hao's eyes as a bone-chilling aura spread out.
In truth, it was not difficult to guess. Just based on the incident deep in the mountains, one could see the character of the Wei family.
Snatching the spirit herb was one thing, but they had actually killed someone in a fit of rage just because the harvesting method was incorrect. This was definitely a long-standing habit within the family.
"Looks like there's going to be some trouble."
Feng Hao frowned slightly.
If he touched the Wei family and did not eliminate them completely, then it was very likely that after he left, the Wei family would carry out revenge and kill everyone in the small village.
If he wanted to prevent future trouble, then there was only one path he could choose, and that was to completely destroy the Wei family.
However, killing a large family with thousands of people was also a troublesome matter.
"What about the Wu family's conduct?"
After pondering for a moment, Fenghao opened his mouth and asked.
He believed that as long as he got rid of the higher-ups of the Wei family, the Wu family would be more than happy to take advantage of the situation. Of course, the prerequisite was that the Wu family had to be kind and honest.
"The Wu family."
When he heard these two words, Quan Yong's expression became a little unnatural, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant.
"What, are they the same as the Wei family?"
Seeing him like this, Feng Hao's brows furrowed even more.
In this world where the strong survived and the weak preyed on the strong, the strong were the truth. There was no way to change this situation.
There were pros and cons.
The pros were that it could stimulate people's desire to improve and prevent them from seeking comfort and happiness. The cons were that the weak could not be protected.
Feng Hao could only sigh at this.
This situation could not be changed at all. If it weren't for this, the human race would have been destroyed long ago if there weren't any external pressure.
Take himself for example. If Yunying had not pressured him back then, he might have chosen to live a mediocre life.
"No, no …"
Quan Yong repeatedly shook his head. Under Feng Hao's astonished gaze, he sighed softly, and a trace of sadness surfaced in his eyes once again. "The Wu family is a large family that was born and raised in Lanjiang City. Back then, the Wu family's ancestor was merely a village man, but because he obtained some opportunities deep in the mountains, the current Wu family came into being. In Lanjiang City, the Wu family is considered a pretty good family, and there are few rumors of them bullying the weak …"
"Oh, looks like Big Brother Quan is very familiar with the Wei and Wu families."
Fenghao naturally saw the change in his expression and asked in a seemingly unintentional manner.
"To tell you the truth, I was actually a guard of the Wu family back then. However, due to some special reasons, I left the Wu family …"
Quan Yong said bitterly with a bitter smile on his face.
"I see."
A glint flashed across Feng Hao's eyes.
From Quan Yong's expression, he could roughly guess what had happened …
Quan Yong, who was originally a Martial King and a guard of the Wu family, was severely injured by someone, causing his cultivation to drop, and ended up hiding in a small village with his daughter.
All of this must have been caused by the Wu family.
"Big Brother Quan, since the Wu family is pretty good, let's pay them a visit first …"
Feng Hao deliberately acted as if he knew nothing as he spoke calmly.
"No."
Quan Yong's reaction was very intense. The sadness in his eyes turned into panic as he shook his head repeatedly.
This further confirmed Fenghao's guess in his heart. The corner of his mouth also hung up in a shallow arc.
Since he had been saved, he should repay the favor. Otherwise, he would not feel at ease.
"Big Brother Quan."
Feng Hao also stopped and placed his hand on Quan Yong's shoulder. He patted him gently and comforted him. "I know that Big Brother Quan has some sort of relationship with the Wu family, but don't worry. Leave everything to me. The Wu family won't dare to do anything to me."
"I …"
Perhaps it was because of the confidence in Feng Hao's eyes, but Quan Yong gradually calmed down.
He knew that Feng Hao must have noticed some clues. He sighed softly and slowly explained his relationship with the Wu family.
