The next day, terrifying news spread throughout Snatching Light City.
In the early hours of the previous night, the heavenly masters of the Alchemist Union found thirteen men and a woman committing adultery in a dungeon in a courtyard.
If it was an ordinary hookup, naturally no one would care. But with so many men and a woman, this kind of play was really shocking. They didn't even dare to think about this kind of thing.
However, the most important thing was that these fourteen people were all from the Fang Clan. The woman was none other than one of Fang Bihan's proud subordinates, Shang Qing.
Not only that, the heavenly masters of the Alchemist Union found a curse box on the ground. After opening it, they found Fang Bihan's name written inside, and this news quickly spread.
Anyone who was cursed by their own servant would probably be unable to bear it, let alone Fang Bihan, one of the top three profligates.
After being questioned by the Alchemist Union, early in the morning, the Alchemist Union sent the fourteen people to the Fang Family residence. After knowing what had happened, the Fang Family members' expressions were extremely ugly.
They didn't expect that the image that the Fang Family painstakingly built would be ruined by these slaves!
When others saw these servants causing trouble, they would think that the masters were the same. As the saying goes, if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. Anyone would suspect the entire Fang Family! Coupled with the curse box, the Fang Family members were even more furious!
In the main hall, the Fang Family's patriarch, Fang Mou, was livid. Looking at the slaves kneeling in front of him, he wanted nothing more than to kill them immediately! Fang Bihan was also present. After learning that she was cursed, her mood had been very gloomy.
But even if they wanted to execute these people, they had to know what had happened. Fang Mou pointed at the slaves and shouted, "Speak! What happened?! "
Shang Qing's body shook violently. She quickly kowtowed and told everything that had happened yesterday afternoon and last night in full detail. At this point, in order to survive, she didn't hide anything.
"Miss, I really didn't do the curse box. That person forced me!" Shang Qing cried and said, "Even if you gave me a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to Miss! Miss is so good to me, I can't thank you enough. How could I do such an outrageous thing?! "
Shang Qing's words were filled with sincerity, causing others to be moved. However, Fang Bihan's expression was still gloomy and didn't change at all.
"You can do it when others force you?" Fang Bihan spoke with a gloomy voice, "What is the Curse Box? What are you? Even if you die, you can't use the curse box to curse me, understand? "
Shang Qing looked at Fang Bihan in shock. She didn't expect the young miss who had always been good to her would give such an answer. But after two breaths, she reacted and continued to beg for mercy. No matter what, she wanted to live.
"Say it again. Who are the people looking for you?" Fang Mou frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"It's a young man!" Shang Qing hurriedly replied, "He seems to be around fourteen or fifteen years old. I saw him at noon yesterday. At that time, he was with a maid. At night, he came to seek revenge on me. As for his appearance …"
Shang Qing said a lot, but it was a pity that her expression was too poor. There was too little information that people could accept. Even the artist at the side shook his head after listening.
"No," the artist said to Fang Mou. "With these things, it's impossible to draw an accurate portrait."
"A bunch of trash!" Fang Mou slammed the chair and shouted at the slaves in front of him.
"What do we do now?" Someone on the side asked.
"Daring to make a move on us, I'm afraid he's not from Snatching Light City. He probably left in the night."
"Yes …"
Fang Mou's frown deepened. He turned to the housekeeper and asked, "What do you think?"
The housekeeper had a high status in the Fang Family. Although he wasn't from the Fang Family, he had always been giving advice and advice to the Fang Family.
"I don't think it's that simple." The housekeeper thought for a while and said, "It seems to be because of what happened at noon yesterday, but it might be a trap."
"Continue." Fang Mou said.
"If it was a passerby, why would they fight when a maid in a tavern was molested?" The housekeeper said seriously, "I suspect that this matter was premeditated. Even if the maid wasn't one of them, no matter what happened yesterday, the other party might have come looking for trouble. "
"The other party's purpose is obvious. They want to ruin our Fang Family's reputation. If it was a foreigner, they could have just killed someone. Why would they have such ulterior motives? So, it must be a local family that wants to make a move on us. "
Hearing this, Fang Mou frowned. Indeed, he had thought of this as well. The housekeeper had the same thought as him. Someone was purposely going against the Fang Family. In Snatching Light City, only the other four families had the guts and power to do so.
The five big families had not been peaceful recently. It seemed that this time, someone finally couldn't take it anymore and made the first move?
"No matter what, we have to find out who did it!" Fang Mou thought for a while and said, "Get someone to check on the movements of the other four families. See if there's anything strange. Also, we have to be prepared for battle. We can't let others take advantage of everything! "
"Yes!" The people around him said immediately.
"How should we deal with them?" Someone looked at the fourteen people who were still kneeling and asked.
Fang Mou looked at them coldly and said, "Kill them."

In fact, it wasn't only the Fang Family that was having a meeting. At the same time, the other four families were having the same idea.
This matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed. It was very likely that someone had made a move on the Fang Family. Recently, there had been some friction between the five big families and they had always been in conflict. Although they seemed to be friendly on the surface, they all wanted to kill each other.
The four families were guessing which family had made a move on the Fang Family, how the Fang Family would deal with it and how they would decide. After all, none of the five big families could escape from the fight.
The five big families were all smart people. They wouldn't give anyone the chance to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Once the five big families were involved, it would be a problem to pick a side.
Snatching Light City was a huge resource. Thinking about it, if the five big families were reduced to four or even less, the profits of each family would increase by a huge level.
The four big families also sent people to find out more about the other party. They were very close to each other, including what happened in the pub that day. Just the pub owner was questioned countless times over the next three days. Naturally, the other customers saw it and the news spread out.
The movements of the Five Great Clans caused the entire Seizing Light City to become nervous. The five big families knew that the other four families were looking for information, but Fang Mou didn't think that the other four families didn't know. Someone was just pretending.
This thought also appeared in the heads of the other four families.
In order to find out more information, the five big families even bumped into each other a few times. Because of this special period, everyone was very sensitive. There were even a few times when they fought, making the situation even more confusing.
Because of this, the five big families were also cleaning up the enemy spies in their own teams. This was something that everyone understood. But at this time, these uneasy things couldn't be left alive. In a short period of time, the spies were killed, making the five big families even more bloody.
Everyone in Snatching Light City could feel the atmosphere. Everyone knew that a war between the five great clans was about to break out.
As the instigator of all this, Lu An was quietly refining pills at home. He actually didn't go out for a whole week.
