"The head of the Nian family beat someone up personally? He even scolded them? That … seems a little too harsh, doesn't it? "Li Chenglong did not understand the situation in Shangjing.
"The Nian family is related to the You family by marriage. They have long disliked the Wang family. This time, Grandpa Nian beat up Wang Han personally. This is true."
You Xiao Xia said, "Grandpa Nian has a fiery temper. He is the kind of person who will not let things slide if he doesn't beat up Wang Han personally … His temper has always been like this …"
Li Chenglong's mouth twitched. "Alright."
"Also, the Nian family is like the Lu family. They are suppressing the Wang family in all aspects, from the political situation, the officialdom, and civil organizations … They are suppressing them as much as they can. Especially those companies that belong to the Wang family, they are especially harsh. If they can use commercial means, they will use commercial means. If they can't, they will use military means to destroy them. "
"The Wu family, the Liu family, the Lu family, and a few other families are doing the same."
"Now, only the You family and the families of the four great generals of the East, West, North, and South are not doing anything. We are not helping either side."
Ranger explained, "It's not that we don't want to help either side, it's just that … we're all military families, and Heavenly King Gu Hong had some connections with these families back then … we can't just kick them when they're down …"
"We understand."
Li Chenglong sighed and nodded. "It's good enough that you don't help either side."
"But I …"
"I really do." Li Chenglong smiled. "The fact that you're here today shows that you're on our side even though you're not helping either side."
"It's just that you can't do anything on the surface, that's all."
"You understand very well." You Xiao Xia was inexplicably touched. Li Chenglong was too understanding.
"There is also news. Wang Wu of the Wang family, one of the former vice-ministers of the military, was arrested for corruption."
You Xiao Xia said, "He embezzled 1,700,000 Astral Souls. The evidence is conclusive."
"What a huge sum of money. To think that a member of the Wang Clan, a member of the upper echelon … would actually embezzle so much money. Truly, truly …"
Li Chenglong stopped talking halfway. He really couldn't make up any more stories.
Also, this topic was too sensitive and could easily be 404ed. Therefore, everyone understood and smiled. That was good!
Since I've already seen through everything, there's no need to say it aloud. It's fine as long as we both know what's in our hearts!
For a moment, everyone had the demeanor of a wise man on their faces.
"The people of the Wang Clan from all over the world are all returning to Shangjing. The fighting power of the Wang Clan is returning from all directions."
You Xiao Xia said, "Many of the Wang Family members were ambushed on their way back. Although there were some who managed to break through the blockade and return, there were also many who died without a complete corpse in a foreign land … This storm has already shown signs of sweeping across the entire Star Soul Realm."
"Is the Wang Clan that powerful? Sweep through the entire Astral Soul Realm? Is it really that exaggerated? "Zuo Xiaoduo couldn't hide the shock on his face.
"You'll never know how much resources such a long-established family has, how much investment they have made, how many shares they hold, and how many businesses they operate … Basically, the Wang Clan has a stake in every single one of the most profitable enterprises in Astral Souls."
"Even if they can't be the dominant ones, they still have a share of one or two percent."
"But now, many companies are either being canceled, or going bankrupt, or … being restructured and liquidating their shares."
"The overall situation has already become like a landslide … A collapsing wall is being pushed down by everyone."
"The Wang Clan has endured a lot of ups and downs for thousands of years, and it's really showing signs of collapsing."
"The members of the Wang Clan who are fighting at the Sun Moon Pass are the safest."
Zuo Xiaoduo said calmly, "What I want to know the most now is whether the people the Wang Clan sent to Phoenix City have returned."
"You don't have to tell me that. That direction is the most important. From the sky to the ground, an inescapable net has been set up, and an indiscriminate search has been carried out. The military, the government, and countless cultivators who have entered the Dao from Phoenix City's Second High are all lying in ambush on that road. The You Clan also has people guarding that road. "
"The Nian Clan, the Wu Clan, and others … Even the four major clans of the East, South, West, and North have all arranged people to wait for an opportunity to act."
"Especially the Lyu Family. All of the top forces that they can bring out are on that path!"
"They're just waiting to catch those people."
"Everyone knows that those people are of the utmost importance right now. They are the most important witnesses, no less."
"It's a pity that after such a long time, we still haven't found anything, and no news has been sent back."
"What's even more maddening is that we don't know the names of those people at all. So far, we only know that they were sent by the Wang Clan, but we don't know who exactly they are."
At this point, Little Hero You's tone was full of distress.
Zuo Xiaoduo pondered and said, "I know their names, nicknames, figures, and faces …"
"You know? Really? "
Li Chenglong and Little Hero You were both excited.
The thing that they had searched high and low for had actually fallen into Zuo Xiaoduo's hands?
This turn of events was a little unbelievable!
Zuo Xiaoduo nodded. "When I visited the Lu Clan last time, I wanted to tell them this news, but after thinking about it, I realized that it was greatly inappropriate. The Lu Clan's desire for revenge is unquestionable, but they don't have any peak experts in their clan."
"As for those fellows who went to Phoenix City to cause trouble, the Wang Clan sent out Peak Sky Realm experts to ensure their safety. If the Lu Clan were to make a move, even if they managed to kill those fellows, they would most likely suffer great losses …" Wang Chong continued.
"How would I know that those people would become the enemy of the entire nation, extreme criminals … Things changed too quickly …"
Zuo Xiaoduo was really regretting it now.
He really didn't expect that there would be so many people interested in this matter.
However, it wasn't too late now, there was still room for redemption.
Zuo Xiaoduo looked at Little Hero You and thought for a while, then muttered, "If this matter is handed over to the You Clan to handle …"
As he said that, he looked at Li Chenglong.
Li Chenglong and Zuo Xiaoduo had been close friends for many years, so he instantly understood and seemed to ponder.
Little Hero You's face was full of anxiety, looking at Li Chenglong eagerly.
This was an important opportunity.
Little Hero You knew very well that if the You Clan could take this matter and complete it beautifully, it would greatly improve his relationship with Zuo Xiaoduo.
As a member of the You Clan, Little Hero You's family was prominent and famous. He didn't need to pay attention to the relationships of most people in this world.
However, Little Hero You valued his friends like Zuo Xiaoduo and Li Chenglong very much.
Since he was young, the ranger had not made many friends. Even if he did get along well, they were just drinking buddies who chatted with each other. Since they were all children of the big families in Shangjing, they naturally knew each other. However, it would be a joke to talk about who could have a heart-to-heart with whom. However, Zuo Xiaoduo and the others didn't care about Little Hero You's family background when they first met. They laughed and scolded each other, calm and unrestrained. This was the way friends interacted with each other that Little Hero You didn't know. Not only were they comfortable, but they also had a sense of steadiness as true friends!
Besides … Although Little Hero You was a foppish playboy, his eyes were very sharp.
Ever since the experience in the Starry Mountains, Little Hero You could see that the team created by Zuo Xiaoduo had unlimited potential!
Not to mention Zuo Xiaoduo, who was invincible, anyone in the team was a top-notch talent, a first-class Heavenly Son of Heaven!
Such a team, as long as they didn't die prematurely, would definitely become giants that shook the world in the future!
On top of that, there was Zuo Xiaoduo, a ruthless character who was like the sky holding down the fort. No one dared to make any small moves!
Such a team … was definitely a hidden dragon, a hidden dragon that could rise to the sky at any time!
Based on this understanding, Little Hero You made up his mind at that time. Even if he had to bark like a dog every day, he had to sneak in … In order to live the rest of his life and live a happy life, face was nothing, it was just a shoe pad …
If the You Clan could really get hold of the details of those few people's identities and successfully take them down … it would be equivalent to taking a solid step forward!
Li Chenglong pondered for a long time and finally said, "It's not impossible to hand it over to the You Clan, but there's one thing that needs to be clear. Only by saying it first can we not delay the important matters."
Little Hero You immediately straightened his chest and said, "Go ahead and say it."
Li Chenglong pondered and said, "You also said that the Wang Clan is a clan that has been around for many generations, so we mustn't underestimate them. If the You Clan has the intention to set up this operation, we must send … enough experts to strike like lightning and finish off these targets in one fell swoop. Eight to ten Skysoar Realm experts … I don't think we can take them down. Even if we send out Dao Integration experts, it might not be easy. "
"That can't be, right? Even if all five of them are peak Skysoar Realm experts, they shouldn't be so difficult to deal with. "Little Hero You was flabbergasted.
"I'm not saying this to scare you, but to make sure everything is well prepared."
Zuo Xiaoduo said with a gloomy face, "If it's just the Wang Clan alone, with the You Clan's strength, it'll be easy to take them down. However, the situation has changed. If our guess is correct and the Southern Dipper and Northern Dipper are really involved, then … this matter has become extremely troublesome. If the people sent out aren't strong enough or are too few, they might even be killed by the traps set by the other party. "
"Back in Phoenix City, a single Left Assistant Star Emissary was enough to make us battered and exhausted … Although that Left Assistant Star Emissary was only at the Cloud Transformation Realm at that time, but … all kinds of schemes still make people shudder when they think about it."
