When the Zhao family head saw the list, he was so angry that he threw it on the ground!

"This is a threat!" the Zhao family head said angrily. "She dares to use her master to intimidate us! She's gone too far! Does she really think we, the nine great families, are easy to bully?"

Zhao Mingyuan stood below, and even though the other person had a powerful master, there was nothing they could do!

"Hmph!" Patriarch Zhao snorted coldly, picked up the list again and looked at it. "Mingyuan, what do you suggest we do?"

"We definitely have to pay out on this order, but it's only been two weeks. If Yunyin Pavilion..."

The Zhao family head nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, "That suits me perfectly! Let's do it that way!"

"We also need to do the work that's on the surface!" Zhao Mingyuan said with a smile.

“I know, I’ll invite these old guys to a get-together another day!” said the Zhao family head.

Back at the Qian family home, Qian Jingyuan arranged rooms for everyone. He looked at Tang Doudou with some concern, "You took too much risk. You're desperate. What if they mobilize the Cloud Hidden Pavilion..."

"Don't worry, if they really send out the Cloud Hidden Pavilion, we can take the opportunity to wipe them out!" Tang Doudou said with a smile.

“The Cloud Hidden Pavilion is not as simple as you say!” Qian Jingyuan said with some concern. “In the past two years, I have learned that the Cloud Hidden Pavilion is much stronger than it appears on the surface. Even the nine major families depend on the Cloud Hidden Pavilion for their survival. Moreover, the person in charge behind it may be someone from higher up!”

Tang Doudou never expected Yunyin Pavilion to be so powerful!

However, this is for the best. Only by taking action can we gradually understand the enemy!

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" Tang Doudou nodded. It seemed she would have to have the system check Yunyin Pavilion again!

"DouDou, what's wrong?" Lin Yu came out of the room and saw the two of them standing together chatting, so he quickly went over to them.

"Young Master Qian is telling me about Yunyin Pavilion," Tang Doudou said with a smile.

"Yunyin Pavilion?" Lin Yu was puzzled; he had never heard of Yunyin Pavilion before.

Qian Jingyuan felt a little disappointed as he looked at Tang Doudou's smile, but now was not the time to be jealous. If the Zhao family really let Yunyin Pavilion take action, the situation would only become more dangerous.

Qian Jingyuan quickly told Lin Yu what he knew, and the information from the system also arrived. "I didn't expect the power behind this to be so strong. It exists on almost every continent. However, it's called Yunyin Pavilion here and Lingyun Pavilion on Lingyun Continent. The name is different on different continents. And we can't find any information about the power behind this!"

Tang Doudou was also a little confused for a moment.

"Lin Yu, have you ever heard of Lingyun Pavilion before?"

Lin Yu nodded. "Lingyun Pavilion, I've heard of it. It's just a small place for gathering information. What's wrong?"

Tang Doudou was shocked; what the system said was true!

However, since we've already gotten ourselves into this mess, we'll deal with whatever comes our way!

"It seems this Cloud Hidden Pavilion is very well hidden." Tang Doudou clenched her fist, her eyes hardening. "Whatever pavilion it is, if they come here, we'll make sure they don't leave alive!"

Qian Jingyuan was still somewhat worried: "Our strength is still too weak."

Lin Yu echoed, "Don't worry, I've recruited some people recently and we're stepping up their training."

"How about we cooperate?" Qian Jingyuan asked again.

Lin Yu nodded. He hadn't expected her opponent to be so powerful.

Although he didn't like Qian Jingyuan, he had no choice but to cooperate with him for Tang Doudou's sake!

Tang Doudou nodded in satisfaction, seeing the two of them being so friendly.

The next day, the Zhao family convened a meeting of all the clan leaders to discuss the compensation proposed by Tang Doudou.

"Isn't this outrageous?!" The Shen family patriarch roared in anger.

The other families echoed his sentiments, but the Qian family head, hiding in a corner, remained silent.

"Master Qian, the person is now in your house. Tell me what's going on!" Master Zhao asked.

"I don't know either. She's my son's friend, and besides, Master Void is behind her. I can't just kick her out, can I?"

"Hmph! Master Xukong, you're so busy, how could you care about such trivial matters?" Patriarch Gu said rudely.

"I heard that Master Xukong is in the Heavenly Realm. What if he only has one disciple..." the Li family head said in a low voice.

That possibility cannot be ruled out! After all, they don't know the Void Master's strength!

"Then what do you suggest we do?" the Zhao family head asked.

Everyone fell silent. No one wanted to pay money to avoid trouble, but they couldn't afford to offend Master Void!

"How about we split it equally?" the Zhao family head said through gritted teeth.

"You two started this whole thing; we were basically not involved," the Fang family patriarch and the Ye family patriarch said after exchanging a glance.

"Yes, yes, it has nothing to do with us!" Patriarch Gu quickly denied.

The remaining companies also quickly severed ties.

"So, you think the Zhao family should be the ones to pay compensation?" The Zhao family head slammed his fist on the table in anger and asked sternly.

"If we lose this money, we'll probably be penniless!" Yan Jia said weakly.

The head of the Zhang family nodded repeatedly, "Our two families are currently at the bottom in terms of strength, and we can't even provide enough supplies for our own families."

The Zhao family head snorted coldly, "Don't try to play the poor card with me. Do you think I don't know your true situation?"

Everyone was silent again.

"Why don't we talk to Tang Doudou and see if we can reduce the amount?" the Gu family head suggested.

"Don't come after me for this!" The head of the Qian family quickly distanced himself from the matter.

“She’s staying at your house, can’t you even say anything? If there’s to be compensation, your Qian family should also contribute!” said the head of the Shen family.

"Ha!" Kong Jia, who had been silent until now, snorted coldly. "Master Qian has a good plan. This Tang Doudou is having an affair with his son. If the two of them get married, wouldn't everything belong to the Qian family?"

"That makes sense. No wonder the Qian family head kept pleading for Tang Doudou!" the Shen family member said sarcastically. "So that's what he was planning. He thinks we're all fools."

"Think what you want, I wouldn't stoop to coveting my daughter-in-law's things!" The head of the Qian family stood up. "Excuse me, I'll be leaving now. As for compensation, I'll pay what I'm entitled to, and I won't give you a single penny for what I'm not entitled to. You can decide what to do!"

After finishing his sentence, the head of the Qian family turned and left.

"The Qian family has gotten too arrogant lately, they really think they're something special!" the Yan family head said indignantly.

“Others have a good son, do you?” the head of the Kong family said from the side.

Everyone was silent.

After a long pause, the Zhao family head asked again, "What is your solution?"

No one spoke. Everyone had better ideas in mind, but these clan leaders were all shrewd and none of them were willing to say them aloud.

“Since you don’t know what to do, let’s distribute this order and prepare it yourselves! Tang Doudou, give us two weeks!”

Everyone looked at the lists they had been given, as if they were hot potatoes. The Zhao family had clearly tampered with them, but there was nothing they could do about it.

All of these are spiritual herbs and magical artifacts. Even if they are distributed among each household, it's still acceptable.

But who would willingly give away their things to someone else for nothing?
