Master Ouyang's reprimand left them dumbfounded. It must be known that in the past, Master Ouyang was famous for shielding his own people. But now that his younger brother had fallen into such a state, he didn't hesitate to pour cold water on him.
Perhaps because he was afraid of causing them to gossip, Master Ouyang said that it was this second in command who was unreasonable and provoked him first. The juniors became even more depressed. How many times had the Ouyang family done unreasonable things?
One of the juniors muttered that if they remained silent, then it wouldn't be long before my words would come true.
But unexpectedly, he was caught by Master Ouyang. In front of nearly a hundred clansmen, his four limbs were abruptly beaten. Although it had a deterrent effect, one had to admit that those people had a pole in their hearts. They also understood that Master Ouyang's method was nothing more than to conceal the panic in his heart.
Compared to the Ouyang family's apprehension and fear, the outside world was rejoicing in their misfortune. The entire Nan Yun Province was paying close attention to the Ouyang family's every move. After all, my actions could be said to be provoking them.
If the Ouyang family swallowed their anger, then not only would they suffer a loss, but their influence would also be greatly reduced. This was reflected in all aspects.
Some people say that the Ouyang family wouldn't die if they didn't court disaster. Because of the selections and the engagement ceremony, they didn't learn their lesson. Instead, they deliberately suppressed the Blood Wolf Hall's development. This angered me, causing this unmanageable situation to appear.
Although I didn't rush to the Ouyang family's house to cause trouble, I did make the Ouyang family lose face in front of the public. If the previous two incidents were to let the upper class know that the Ouyang family was no longer the hegemon of the province that could call the wind and summon the rain, then today, it could be said that from the high officials to the common people, everyone deeply felt the rise of a new power!
That's right, it was the Blood Wolf Hall from Cloud City. The previously unremarkable third-rate gang had unexpectedly produced an incomparably dazzling powerhouse. Even the Ouyang family's position was shaken!
For a time, Yuncheng became the focus of the province. Many businessmen rushed to Yuncheng as fast as they could to buy shops, houses, and land as if they didn't need money. So that in just half a day, the transaction volume was equal to that of the past one or two months.
There was no doubt that the reason why these businessmen made a move was related to the Blood Wolf Hall. In the future, the Blood Wolf Hall would become the largest gang in the province. Naturally, it would drive the economy, and even the direction of the planning would shift.
Many people speculated that Yun City would become the second Chu Zhou City in the future. The real estate prices in Chu Zhou City were at least twice as high as in Yun City.
It was necessary to snap up all kinds of purchases while the economy of Yuncheng was booming. Anyway, it was a profitable business.
Even I, the person involved, didn't expect this situation …
Hearing Director Du's earnest and well-meaning tone, I felt a little embarrassed. Obviously, he was doing it for my own good. He hoped that my martial arts could improve further. It seemed that the most important thing now was to go to the capital. With today's deterrence, the Ouyang family wouldn't dare to do anything, right?!
It was undeniable that if I went out of town, the Ouyang family might make a move on my sister-in-law. But this was not a wise move. Think about it, if I had the ability to fight against the entire Ouyang family with my own strength. If something happened to them, I would certainly not let the Ouyang family go. At that time, they would have to bear the pain of being exterminated. It was not worth it. So, even if they wanted to make a move, they should look for me.
Old Ouyang was a smart man. It was impossible that he didn't think about it. But then again, the Ouyang family didn't have the courage, but the Blood Demon did. I didn't think that the Blood Demon would let me go so easily.
He didn't kill me before, which meant that he was interested in my Pure Yang constitution. If he used them to threaten me, then I might completely lose the ability to resist.
I readily agreed to Director Du's request and told him that I would leave in a day or two at most.
Director Du understood my concerns, so he specifically told me to send my sister-in-law and the others to his place.
This was good. With Director Du's presence, the Blood Demon wouldn't dare to act recklessly. After all, Grandmaster Chen was waiting for me. I couldn't act arrogantly. Although it was important to accompany my sister-in-law and the others, the capital to stay with them for a long time came from absolute strength.
Otherwise, if I didn't have the ability to protect them, how could I say that I would stay forever?
"Okay, Director Du, then I don't need to go back. I'll send them to your place. The earliest I can leave is tomorrow. I don't want to keep Grandmaster Chen waiting." Originally, I wanted to study alchemy, but it seemed that I had to put it aside for now.
Hearing this, Director Du was overjoyed. If I wanted to spend some time with my friends, he wouldn't be able to say anything. He wouldn't go as far as to kidnap me and take me to the capital. That would make me a laughing stock.
Fortunately, I knew what was more important. After hanging up the phone, I prepared to take a shower.
However, when I was about to go to the bathroom, I felt a faint aura outside the room. It seemed a little familiar.
After thinking for a while, I tiptoed to the door. The four women were sitting on the bed, laughing and talking. They didn't notice my strange behavior.
I abruptly pushed the door open and looked around, but I didn't see anyone. Suddenly, an unprecedented sense of danger surged in my heart. A sharp claw was about to attack my head.
My heart sank. It turned out it was above me. When I saw it clearly, I felt my hair stand on end. The thing in front of me was extremely ugly. Its eyes flashed with a faint blue light, and its fangs were so dense that I couldn't even keep them in my mouth. It looked so disgusting. Moreover, its skin was so tight that I could almost see its ribs!
Damn, how could it be a human? It's a monster! My first reaction was to take two steps back and close the door.
"Bang." In the next instant, the seemingly sturdy door was pierced through, leaving a large hole.
Soon, my sister-in-law and the others' attention fell on me. When they saw the shining claws and the wriggling alien arms, they were scared out of their wits.
"Hurry up and hide!"
I shouted in a deep voice. This monster's destructive power was far beyond my expectations. It looked like a casual move, but it was no less than a full-power attack from a HuaJin Master. It was simply unstoppable!
I was a little confused. I didn't know what kind of creature it was. Why did it suddenly attack me?!
