Chapter 77: Su Yang County

  "What? The three major families of Shan City were all annihilated? Who was behind it?"

  "Isn't that right? The three major families of Shan Cheng, with hundreds of years of foundation, yet no one was completely annihilated? Could it be that some powerful force intervened?"

  "What kind of person have I offended?"

  "It's strange, with the three families joining forces, their strength shouldn't be weak, right? How did all three family ancestors die? And all three families suffered heavy casualties? Who would dare to do this?"

  "It seems that the three major families of Kao Shan City are going to decline! Hehe, Kao Shan City, one of the entrances to Hai Zhou? How can we not make a fortune? However, they all died from poisoning? Could it be the doing of the Poison Dragon Valley?"

  "Du Long Valley? The three families in the mountain city shouldn't have offended Du Long Valley, should they? But it wasn't them, so who was it that struck with poison and hidden weapons? It's actually a master of using poison and hidden weapons!"

  Only three days have passed, and the world is in an uproar. The three major families of Kao Shan City were suddenly annihilated overnight, leaving only some shrimp soldiers and crab generals behind. Whose handiwork is this?

  Especially some of the nearby forces even sent people to come and check. The final result shocked them all, with hundreds of corpses being collected, while the majority were poisoned to death, their faces dark purple, their bodies filled with golden needles, and some even had their flesh and blood rotting away, like the three old ancestors. The sight was truly unbearable.

  Who is behind this?

  Everyone who knew the news was guessing in their hearts.

  The three major families in Kao Shan City are not weak in terms of actual strength, and they can't be ranked too low in the world. I estimate that they are at most a second-rate family, and even among those, they are downstream. However, in reality, if these three families join forces in Hai Zhou, they will have first-rate strength, and there aren't many people who dare to provoke them. Those who can afford to provoke them don't care about this small port city; otherwise, the three families wouldn't be able to occupy Kao Shan City. It's worth noting that Kao Shan City is a passage to the outside world, and at least one-third of Hai Zhou's goods must pass through here before they can go out, with enormous profits inside.

  In Haizhou, three big families that could be called kings and overlords were actually annihilated like this, and those people died so miserably, who was the ruthless person who did it?

  At this time, the ruthless man was hurrying to Su Yang County with a whip. Not to mention outsiders, even he, the perpetrator, saw the result of his own actions and felt a chill in his heart. He began to wonder if he had been too ruthless?

  Those corpses covered in blood, made his stomach churn with a mix of emotions. Luckily, he managed to hold it in. In his heart, he secretly thought that this was all their fault for not being careful and plotting against him. He had no choice, if they didn't die, then he would have to die instead. "Die for the sake of friendship, or live a life of poverty", you can't blame me for this!

  Killing, Wu Ming had never felt anything uncomfortable. The first time he killed someone, he still felt a slight surge of blood. But with over a hundred mangled corpses appearing in front of him, and it being his own doing, this young man who had crossed over from modern society couldn't help but feel a thread of fear in his heart. He silently wondered if he was too ruthless. Two would have been enough, so why did he end up exchanging for four?

  But this time, it's quite refreshing, a one-time kill, so cool!

  So, for the past few days, Wu Ming was excited and conflicted. He was thrilled that the fireball had such great power, and he had grasped the timing perfectly, wiping out so many people at once, which would surely intimidate a lot of others. What was troubling him was that he had never killed so many people in such a bloody manner before, and there were so many young people who were only a few years older than him or roughly the same age as his past life.

  It took five days to get here, rushing along the way and taking many detours, just to avoid being seen by others. After all, those three families suffered countless casualties, but who knows if news about him would leak out?

  Shi Jingxuan has been staying here, and I don't know how she's spent the past few days. Wu Ming thought to himself, but then he thought again, probably she shouldn't have come here for long, right?

  Shi Jingxuan had only arrived in Su Yang County three days ago, found a hotel and quietly checked in. For the past three days, she had been staying in her room almost all the time, not going anywhere except for meals. She even took an easy-to-eat pill before coming out to eat, fearing that her identity would be exposed and implicate Wu Ming.

  However, in the past few days at the wine house, she had heard the storyteller talk about the situation in Shan City, and her mind was put at ease, so she didn't go to find Lin Bufan, just waiting like this, waiting for Wu Ming to come looking for her.

  After some time, Wu Ming finally found Shi Jingxuan, and both of them let out a sigh of relief. Upon meeting, they were overjoyed, especially Shi Jingxuan, who cried profusely, but insisted that Wu Ming tell her about his experiences over the past few days. Wu Ming had no choice but to pick out some trivial matters to talk about, not daring to say anything too serious, occasionally boasting about how brave and capable he was. Even so, it wasn't until after they finished eating that her tears finally stopped.

  The wine house has storytelling, the tea house has PhDs. Just found a good seat and sat down, I saw a storytelling master appear, this old man must have come at mealtime, there are many people in the wine house now.

  The storytelling master tapped the wooden clapper to attract everyone's attention, then picked out some interesting or thrilling passages and told them for a while. When he spoke well, he also received some reward money, naturally delighted.

  Wu Ming and Shi Jingxuan had eaten almost enough, just about to get up, when the storyteller smiled slightly, tapped the wooden table, and said loudly: "The old man has been telling these stories for a while, I'm sure everyone is tired of hearing them. Today, I'll tell you something new. Five days ago, the Zhang, Li, and Yang families in Leshan City were all killed in one day. This news has been mentioned several times in the past few days, so I won't repeat it. What I want to say is based on this. Think about it, it's not strange that everyone from the three families died, but what's strange is that people from the Zhang and Li families all died at the Yang family? There's obviously something fishy going on here!"

  "This is also true, why did they all die at Yang's house?"

  "It's possible that the ruthless person is a common enemy of all three families. The three families got together to discuss how to deal with it, and then the ruthless person heard about this and went over to kill them off guard."

  "Cut, how can it be so simple? It's said that the Li and Zhang families have also sealed off Mount City, what about this? Are they still planning to surround and kill that ruthless person? But didn't the Yang family not make a move at all?"

  “......”

  Because of Mr. Shuoye's one sentence, the whole wine building suddenly buzzed with discussion, each with their own views and reasons.

  "What's there to argue about? Just listen to what the old man has to say!"

  The storyteller was naturally pleased to hear this. If no one listened to him, what kind of business would he have?

  At this time, Wu Ming and Shi Jingxuan sat down again, also wanting to hear what the storyteller had to say, after all, how much did he know!
