Chapter 23 The Yang Family Under Siege

Seeing one person kneel and confess, Yang Zhenwu's expression gradually improved, but when he saw that the Su family father and son had not yet acted, his gaze became even more sinister.

"What? Do your families want to test the strength of my three thousand generals?"

The hall was deathly quiet. The Yang family members all looked at the confessing individuals below with arrogance. It was imaginable that after today, no one would dare to interfere with the Yang family's actions in Jiangnan.

Yang Zhenwu was the greatest backing of their Yang family!

The onlookers in the hall remained detached, with only a few kind-hearted individuals sympathizing with the plight of the Su family father and son.

However, with the Yang family's current power, the Su family father and son could only grudgingly accept their fate!

In the hall, the Su family father and son, one by one, had grim expressions filled with grief and indignation. For the sake of a minor dispute, Yang Zhenwu was forcing them to such an extent. It was truly excessive! Da Feng Novel Network

Forcing them to kneel, and to hand over half their assets, how could they accept this?

"Plop!" In the silence, another family confessed. The head of that family, along with his son, knelt on the spot, their faces filled with despair.

"The Qi family confesses!"

The hall was silent. Everyone looked at these confessing individuals, waiting for them to kneel.

Su Haoran's face was full of struggle. He looked back at Su Ping, whose face was contorted with rage, as Su Ping was being held by him. He gave a bitter smile.

If they didn't kneel, the Su family would perish!

Now, all they could do was kneel!

"Su family." Su Haoran spoke slowly, pulling Su Ping and preparing to kneel. At this moment, a figure suddenly burst into the hall, attracting everyone's attention.

"King! Ten brothers sent to Jiangcheng have lost contact!"

It was a member of the Three-Star Divine Hall. Upon entering the hall, he immediately knelt and reported the news.

In the hall, some people who didn't know the truth looked bewildered, not understanding what was happening.

But the Yang family members' faces instantly turned angry. They all looked at Yang Zhenwu.

"Boom!" Yang Zhenwu immediately stood up, a powerful aura erupting from him. He stared fixedly at the speaker, his voice calm and unhurried.

"Lost contact? All ten of them are of General level strength. They went to kill an ant in Jiangcheng, and they lost contact?"

"When did the people of my Three-Star Divine Hall become so useless?"

"Even if their situation is unknown, you still have the nerve to report to me?"

"Go investigate! Even if they are dead, you must find their bodies!"

"As you command! King!" The person kneeling below responded immediately, then quickly left the hall.

But after he left, the atmosphere in the hall changed. Everyone present was a shrewd individual, and from Yang Zhenwu's few words, they could guess the course of events.

Yang Zhenwu had sent ten generals to kill Li Xiaotian, and his men had lost contact!

With today's advanced information, no matter what the situation, they wouldn't be unable to send back even a single message, would they?

But now that those ten men had lost contact, had they all been killed by Li Xiaotian?

"Zhenwu, should we send someone to investigate Jiangcheng again?"

Old Master Yang said in a deep voice. For some reason, he had a bad feeling. Li Xiaotian had once vowed to destroy their Yang family in three days, and today was the third day!

"No need! He's just an ant. Today is the third day. If Li Xiaotian has the guts, let them come to our Yang family and try!"

Yang Zhenwu shook his head, not caring at all. He was just a little angry that his first action after returning was so anticlimactic. This made him very unhappy!

As for whether the people he sent were killed by Li Xiaotian, he didn't care. Even if they were killed by the opponent, so what?

He had three thousand generals! Li Xiaotian was definitely no match for him!

Moreover, his current strength was that of a War King! Immeasurably powerful!

He had plenty of confidence!

"However, if we just wait for Li Xiaotian to come to our door, it makes our Yang family seem somewhat weak!"

Yang Zhenwu changed the subject, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. He shouted towards the outside of the hall.

"Issue an order! Send a hundred men to capture Li Xiaotian and bring him back to me! If he escapes, then kill everyone related to him!"

"Yes!" Outside the hall, a roar instantly sounded.

In the hall, everyone was trembling with fear. As expected of the King of the Three-Star Divine Hall, Yang Zhenwu was quiet for a long time, but when he moved, he shocked everyone.

Although the previous ten men had lost contact, this did not affect the awe the crowd felt towards Yang Zhenwu. After all, ten men were but a drop in the ocean compared to three thousand.

"Why haven't you knelt yet? Do you really want to be exterminated?"

Seeing that the Su family father and son were still standing, Yang Zhenwu's anger surged, and he roared.

"Su family father and son, do you want to be exterminated? Hurry up and kneel! Also, in addition to handing over half your assets, Jiang Xiaorou must also be sent to the Yang family!"

Yang Xiaodong followed Yang Zhenwu's words, shouting angrily and viciously. With the Yang family's current rising momentum, he could use this opportunity to fulfill his own wish.

"Yang Xiaodong." Su Ping's face became even more contorted when he heard Yang Xiaodong's words. He had just uttered the name when Su Haoran slapped him.

Su Haoran's face was filled with despair, his eyes dead. Their Su family was about to be defeated!

Just as Su Haoran was pulling Su Ping to prepare to kneel, a person faster than the previous one rushed into the hall from outside.

"King! The mountain below has been surrounded!"

The person was anxious. Upon seeing Yang Zhenwu, he even forgot to kneel and spoke directly.

He was terrified. The Three-Star Divine Hall had just prepared to send a hundred men to capture Li Xiaotian, but when they reached the foot of the mountain, they were all killed by some black-clothed men who had rushed out in a single encounter.

When the men of the Three-Star Divine Hall went to rescue them, they discovered that the entire mountain had been silently surrounded.

Moreover, the black-clothed men who had just killed the hundred generals were only twenty-odd in number, while the number of black-clothed men at the foot of the mountain was at least five hundred!

How could this not shock him?

Several commanders of the Three-Star Divine Hall were startled and ordered their men to withdraw. They had all mingled in the war zones and could naturally discern the strength of the black-clothed men at the foot of the mountain; they were all superior to them.

"What??"

Yang Zhenwu leaped up with a "whoosh," his face filled with rage. The men he sent had been killed at his doorstep, and moreover, someone dared to surround the Yang family knowing he had returned. This was simply slapping his face!

The people in the hall were also shocked. Who dared to send people to surround the Yang family? This was courting death!

At this moment, everyone's mind suddenly recalled a person: Li Xiaotian!

But then, everyone dismissed this thought. It was impossible. Could Li Xiaotian, a live-in son-in-law from Jiangcheng, have the power to send people to surround the Yang family?
