In the world of martial arts, grind your skill level to become a saint.

Chapter 148 Decision! Seizure!

"A good show?"

Su Hao was slightly taken aback. "Is it related to the Chu family?"

He asked tentatively.

Now that the Chu family patriarch, Chu Xiongfeng, has been killed, the entire Chu family has suffered a great loss of strength. It is the time to settle old and new scores!

"Hehe, the Chu family and my Zhou family have had many conflicts in the past, and with the Qingzhi Valley incident, the relationship between the two sides has become extremely strained. This matter needs to be settled!"

Zhou Zhengtang nodded slightly.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Chu family is now severely weakened and leaderless, the Zhou and Ren families, by joining forces, will surely be able to completely eliminate the Chu family!

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Su Hao nodded and then asked.

"No need. With our two families joining forces, taking down the Chu family is a sure thing. We just need to be careful not to let Chu Tian escape!"

""

Speaking of Chu Tian, ​​the eldest son of the Chu family, a cold glint appeared in Zhou Zhengtang's eyes.

This guy had repeatedly caused him trouble, which had already pushed his killing intent towards him to its limit.

In this operation, everyone in the Chu family can survive except for Chu Tian!

"But—since it was previously suspected that the Nestorian Church attacked the Chu family, could it be that the Chu family also possesses something the Nestorian Church wants, so this matter—"

After searching for a while, Su Hao expressed his concerns.

It should be noted that the current head of the Chu family was killed by members of the Jingjiao sect, so regardless of whether they had a cooperative relationship before or for other reasons, they are related to the Jingjiao sect.

Given this, will the Zhou family's current actions against the Chu family provoke the Nestorian Church once again?

This mysterious sect, capable of simultaneously attacking the Zhou, Ren, and Chu families, possesses a strength that none of them can rival on their own.

Therefore, these factors must be taken into consideration.

"Don't worry! We've already thought these things through." Zhou Zhengtang nodded. "So, the operation three days from now will be secretly assisted by government officials. The goal, of course, is to lure out some of the leaders of the Nestorian Church."

"And do you think we can easily eliminate the Chu family without the approval of the authorities?"

Zhou Zhengtang added further.

These families were all major merchants of medicinal herbs, and they had intricate relationships with many clinics and pharmacies in the city.

It should be understood that medicine is one of the factors that maintain the stability of Yanshan City. How could the government possibly sit idly by and watch these factional struggles among powerful clans?

Therefore, the government had already been aware of this matter for a long time. However, because the Chu family was exposed for colluding with the Nestorian Church, which violated the bottom line of the imperial law, the government turned a blind eye this time.

"So that's how it is—" Su Hao immediately understood.

"In that case, congratulations to Brother Zhou on the resounding success of his operation three days from now!"

Su Hao cupped his hands and smiled.

I didn't expect Zhou Zhengtang and his men to be so well-prepared, they even made arrangements with the government.

However, this is for the best, at least it solves the biggest variable and trouble.

Otherwise, if things get halfway through and the authorities interfere and pin a crime on you, it would truly be a case of losing more than you gain!

Yanshan Castle, Kitamatsu Town.

Kitamatsu Town, the least noticeable town in the entire Yanshan Castle, has always maintained an extremely low profile.

There are no superior medicinal resources here, nor are there wealthy families clustered together. The only industries here are a few restaurants and one or two streets, which support the daily lives of the ordinary people living in this town.

At this time, in a remote residential area of ​​Kitamatsu Town, there was a dilapidated mud-walled thatched cottage.

Four or five people were gathered in the courtyard, standing in front of a house, quietly watching the figures of several young men dressed in brocade robes inside.

"Good! Very good! Several days have passed, and you still haven't released me. Very well!!"

Inside the house, a handsome young man dressed in a black and gold brocade robe strode to the iron gate, his eyes fixed on the figures standing outside.

He slammed his fist hard against the iron gate. Although the force was considerable, reaching the level of a three-blood copper skin, it only caused the iron gate to emit a dull thud before falling silent.

"What the hell do you want?! Believe me, the Yan family will wipe out your entire clan!!"

"Don't think I don't know who you are! I remember every single one of you! You're all just waiting to die!!"

The young man shook the iron gate with all his might, but found that it wouldn't budge. He could only continue to point at the figures outside the gate, cursing and roaring.

Considering his status—the heir of the Yan family, one of the eight great families of the Inner City Martial Arts Alliance—he was a true overlord.

And now we're being treated like this by a bunch of good-for-nothings!?

He wasn't stupid. Although these people had all disguised themselves and concealed their identities, he could still easily guess their true identities.

The three factions and two groups have already taken sides, and both sides have an agreement not to arbitrarily target the younger generation of their families.

Besides the three gangs and two factions, who else could be capable of kidnapping them besides these old fogies from the Outer City Martial Arts Academy?

Although he didn't know which of these martial arts academy members were involved in this operation.

But if he's released, no martial arts academy in the outer city will escape punishment! They will all be wiped out!

The other young men in brocade robes who were also imprisoned nearby all had ugly and angry expressions.

They were all scions of prominent families in the inner city. This was the first time in all these years that someone had dared to kidnap them in the street!

They also wanted to know who had the audacity to oppose the Eight Great Families.

"Yan Qishan, although you are the heir of the Yan family, you are now nothing more than a prisoner. What right do you have to spout such nonsense here?"

Upon hearing the young man in black's words, the eyes of the people outside the iron fence turned cold.

They clearly aren't buying it.

"If it weren't for the fact that you have some value, you would already be a corpse by now. So, don't take yourself too seriously. If you continue to be so arrogant, you'll lose your life!"

One of the figures, shrouded in black robes, snorted coldly, then flicked a black pebble from his fingertip, which shot fiercely towards the young man named Yan Qishan with a whooshing sound.

The man in black robes made a decisive move, launching a pebble that seemed to contain some kind of energy. It was extremely violent, almost tearing apart the surrounding air, before landing on Yan Qishan's chest, who was unable to dodge in time.

It exploded violently in Yan Qishan's chest again!

boom!

With a dull thud in the room, Yan Qishan was struck as if by a heavy blow, sent flying by a pebble, and crashed hard into the iron wall behind him, then coughed up a mouthful of blood!

"If they won't listen to reason, who else wants to cause trouble?"

As the man in black robes began to act, the others also turned cold, their eyes fixed on everyone in the room.

At the same time, a chilling wave quietly enveloped the entire room!

This caused all the young people inside to turn pale and dare not utter another sound!
