Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 223: Chapter 223 Zhao Family Backing Up

Fang Cui wore a look of pride and said, ”Heh, do you really think the Yu Xuan Family is that simple? Let me tell you the truth, the situation with the Yu Xuan Family is something beyond your wildest imagination!”

”What?” The three of them were shocked once again. Wasn’t the Zhao Family background formidable enough?

Fang Cui repeated the matter of Qin Haishan, and the three almost popped their eyes out.

The Zhao Family and the Qin Family, there was quite a significant gap between them.

Just the Zhao Family alone had left them shaken to the core. Who could have imagined there would be an even closer connection with the Qin Family?

My God, the three of them felt so overwhelmed with joy that they were almost fainting. Their nephew by marriage actually had such an incredible background? What did that make Su Yang then?

”Sister, could you also take us to the gathering of the Ten Great Families tonight...” Fang Jianhong said excitedly, ”Su Yang will definitely be there tonight, and I want to vent all the frustration I’ve endured right in front of him!”

”I want to go too, I want to go too!” Fang Hui said through clenched teeth, ”Today, I must make him kneel before me and kowtow!”

”This...” Fang Cui was a bit worried and looked towards Liao Yuxuan.

Liao Yuxuan, however, was decisive, and once again spoke to Zhao Changlong about the matter. Zhao Changlong did not hesitate either, immediately agreeing to bring them along, which made them jump for joy.

...

At six o’clock in the evening, Su Yang finally walked out of his room.

He had absorbed all the spiritual energy from that idol, and now he felt a deathly stillness in the True Qi within his Qi Sea. However, Su Yang was well aware that this was just the calm before the storm.

His power had essentially reached the Fusion Realm, and now the True Qi inside his body was quietly integrating. Once the True Qi completely fused, Su Yang would step into the Fusion Realm!

In the Qi Refining Realm, Su Yang could slay experts of the Fusion Realm. Once he stepped into the Fusion Realm, slaying The Sovereign would be no problem at all!

Half an hour later, Hou Shilin also drove over to personally take Su Yang to the Qingyun Clubhouse. The meeting of the Nine Great Families was being held at the Qingyun Clubhouse.

On the way to the Qingyun Clubhouse, Hou Shilin also analyzed the current situation for Su Yang.

Among the Top Ten Families of Pingnan Province, the Xue Family had already withdrawn from the historical stage, leaving nine remaining.

Among these nine, there were two families that did not have good relations with the Hou Family, namely the Xie Family ranked fourth, and the Chen Family ranked eighth. These two families definitely would not support the Hou Family.

Two families had close relations with the Zhao Family, and another two with the Hong Family. This left three other families, namely the Ye Family ranked first, the Nan Family ranked fifth, and the Qin Family ranked sixth.

The Nan Family and the Qin Family would likely support the Hou Family. The attitude of the Ye Family was unclear, but given that both the Xie Family and the Chen Family had poor relations with the Hou Family, they definitely would not be supportive. Therefore, the situation for the Hou Family was very precarious indeed.

Su Yang sat in the car, listened to Hou Shilin’s analysis, and just smiled faintly, ”All these things are trivial. Tonight, nothing can stop the Hou Family from becoming one of the Top Ten Families!”

Hou Shilin felt reassured. He knew that whatever Su Yang said, he could make it happen.

”Su Yang, be cautious of the Wang Family later,” Hou Shilin said in a low voice, ”The Wang Family has the second-ranked expert in Pingnan Province, Wang Wanli, who is said to have reached the Venerable Realm. The Wang Family has good relations with the Zhao Family, and being ranked third among the Ten Great Families, their influence here should not be underestimated!”

”Wang Wanli?” Su Yang chuckled. If it had been before today, facing a Venerable, it would probably have taken quite an effort. But now, Su Yang was not afraid at all.

Upon entering the Qingyun Clubhouse, Su Yang immediately felt that the atmosphere today was starkly different from the past. Not to mention, the number of guards outside had significantly increased. Moreover, the guards here were no longer from the Hou Family; they should be from the Nine Great Families!

As he walked into the hall, he saw a group of people gathered together from afar, seemingly chatting and laughing about something.

”It’s the Zhao Family’s people!” Hou Shilin whispered.

Su Yang also saw Lin Qingru and the people of the Fang Family among the crowd and couldn’t help but frown slightly. What was the involvement of the Fang Family in tonight’s events?

”Su Yang!”

Fang Jianhong, the first to spot Su Yang, glared bitterly. An archenemy was always a sight for sore eyes, and he hurried over, ”Su, you’ve finally arrived. I’ve been waiting for so long, I was really afraid you wouldn’t come!”

Su Yang stood with his hands behind his back, calmly replying, ”What difference does it make whether I come or not?”

”If you’ve come, tonight I will make you regret everything you’ve done!” Fang Jianhong said through clenched teeth. ”Moreover, this time, whether you cooperate with our project or not, I won’t let you off. Even if you kneel down and beg me, I will still make sure you suffer!”

”Is that so?” Su Yang glanced at Fang Jianhong, ”And you think you can do that?”

At this moment, Zhao Changlong came over, sneering, ”What’s the matter, you seem very unconvinced. You think we can’t do it?”

Hou Shilin’s expression darkened as he said solemnly, ”Mr. Zhao, the Su Brothers are friends of the Hou Family. What are you implying with such remarks?”

”Step aside!” Zhao Changlong rebuked angrily. ”Who do you think you are to talk to me like that? Have your grandfather come and talk to me!”

Hou Shilin’s face turned awkward; in front of Zhao Changlong, he was indeed of the younger generation.

Yet the people of the Fang Family were sneering continuously, extremely thrilled. Zhao Changlong was truly domineering, to scold Hou Shilin like this on the Hou Family’s turf—it was really satisfying to listen to.

Su Yang glanced at Zhao Changlong and spoke coldly, ”Old man, watch your words. Otherwise, although you managed to get to Nanluo City, it would be embarrassing if you couldn’t get back!”

Zhao Changlong flew into a rage, pointing at Su Yang, ”You brat, dare to threaten me? You should look in the mirror and see what you’re worth before speaking to me like that. Damn it, how can such trash be allowed in the venue? Get him out of here!”

Several people immediately rushed out from behind Zhao Changlong, heading toward Su Yang with aggressive momentum.

Su Yang let out a cold laugh, ready to make his move, when an angry voice came from behind, ”Everyone, stop right there!”

Turning to look, they saw Hou Xiangde coming over with a group of people.

A trace of disdain flashed in Zhao Changlong’s eyes as he spoke coldly, ”Hou Xiangde, do you think you can control me?”

”Master Su!” Hou Xiangde first greeted Su Yang, then gave Zhao Changlong a cold look. ”Whether I can or can’t, this is Nanluo City, and it’s not your place to call the shots!”

”What if I insist on talking?” Zhao Changlong scoffed. ”I want to kick this kid out today; what can you do about it?”

”You just try!” Hou Xiangde replied directly. ”I don’t care who you are from the Zhao Family, if anyone dares to make a move, I’ll chop them up and feed them to the dogs. Listen up, Zhao Changlong, this is Nanluo City. We may not be as powerful as the Zhao Family, but here in Nanluo City, we have plenty of people. I could kill all of you and at most pay with my life. What can you do about
