The Wang family hadn't anticipated that the City Lord would personally visit the Shangguan residence.

According to the normal speed of information dissemination, he couldn't have arrived at the Shangguan residence so quickly, and moreover, he shouldn't have come to the Shangguan residence at all.

The Shangguan family was merely a small family, a family propped up by the Wang family, and it was fundamentally impossible for them to warrant the City Lord's attention.

This was a private matter between families of different ranks.

Yet, not only had he come, but his words and attitude clearly indicated that he intended to help the Shangguan family.

Xie Kui walked up to Wang Qingjun with a smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The black market bounty wasn't issued by Shangguan Yu. It's just a marital spat, no need to make such a fuss."

"You say it wasn't, so it wasn't?"

Wang Qingjun slapped his hand away, his eyes fierce as he said, "Besides, we're dealing with family matters. What are you, the City Lord, doing interfering? Could it be that the Shangguan family dares to act this way because the City Lord is instigating them?"

Even when facing the City Lord of Wangjiang City, Wang Qingjun's imposing manner remained fierce, not yielding to the other party, and even turning the tables, suppressing the other party's arrogance.

Anyone else would have looked surprised, but Xie Kui was extremely shrewd, merely smiling slightly and saying, "I just don't want General Wang to make a big mistake due to a misunderstanding. You are the defending general of my Wangjiang City, but you can't harm the civilians in the city without reason."

"City Lord Xie is really putting a tall hat on me! So you're here to protect the Shangguan family!"

Wang Qingjun revealed a look of realization, then a fierce expression: "The woman Shangguan Yu found was either arranged by you, or related to you. Is that so?"

Xie Kui smiled faintly upon hearing this: "The relationship isn't that significant, and it's not important. I'll say it again, I don't want General Wang to make a big mistake, otherwise the position of general will not be able to reassure the people!"

The tone of the second half of his sentence was heavier, the meaning of threat very obvious.

If you don't withdraw your troops and leave, you will be an enemy of the City Lord's Mansion, and your position as general will be revoked!

"Hahahaha!" Wang Qingjun laughed loudly: "Xie old dog, don't say I didn't give you a chance. If you don't leave, I'll chop you down too!"

So what if he was the City Lord?

The Wang family was furious and attacked simultaneously.

In an instant, a fierce conflict erupted within the Shangguan residence, turning into a chaotic battle, and the clanging sounds of fighting spread from inside the residence to outside.

The City Lord's Mansion and the Wang family both sent reinforcements, clashing and fighting on the city's main roads, and the common people fled in panic.

For a long time, Wangjiang City had been jointly guarded by several major families.

In order to unify order, the major families elected one of their patriarchs to serve as the City Lord, and required that the family patriarch be rotated every ten years.

The current City Lord was the Xie family head, but that didn't mean he could do whatever he wanted.

The Wang family wouldn't indulge them.

Dare to provoke? Then just start killing!

Such a large-scale family war rarely happened, otherwise Wangjiang City wouldn't have developed to such prosperity. The last family fight in Wangjiang City could be traced back two hundred years.

When Wang Jiayun learned that the Wang family and the Xie family had started a war, killing each other fiercely, she hurriedly ran to Chen Changsheng for help.

"Young Master Chen! I wonder if you can lend a hand, I'm worried that my second uncle and the others will be in danger!" Wang Jiayun said anxiously as she entered Chen Changsheng's room.

After several days of contention, the two major families had reached a stalemate.

No one knew when the next round of fighting would come, but neither side intended to stop, and the Shangguan family had even directly joined the Xie family's ranks, fully armed and ready to go.

As for the other major families in Wangjiang City, they were happy to see this happen.

The Wang family and the Xie family were too strong. Only when they were both severely injured would the other families have a chance to surpass them.

After hearing this, Chen Changsheng, who was in the room, asked in confusion: "Doesn't Madam have a cultivation big brother? Why not call him back to help the Wang family?"

"My big brother's sect is in the Taihang Region, which is hundreds of thousands of miles away from here. We mortals can't contact him at all. We can only see him when he comes back, and his return time is not fixed."

Wang Jiayun sighed.

If all the members of the family died, all her big brother could do was take revenge.

Distant water cannot quench present thirst. The only one who can help the Wang family now is Chen Changsheng, who is also a cultivator.

"Madam, don't worry. Now that I've come to Wangjiang City with you, I certainly won't watch the Wang family be destroyed."

Chen Changsheng gently pulled Madam Wang to the tea table.

Upon hearing that he was willing to help, the worry on Wang Jiayun's face lessened a bit.

"But regarding the Shangguan family's matter, why does the City Lord's Mansion want to interfere?"

Chen Changsheng had been studying alchemy in his room and didn't know what had happened outside these days.

He originally thought that the Wang family should be able to easily handle a small Shangguan family, but he didn't expect that there was a stone hidden in this persimmon.

"The Wang family has already investigated this matter clearly."

Wang Jiayun's face was a little unsightly as she said in a deep voice: "The woman who was with Shangguan Yu that day was from the Tan family of Wangjiang, and also Xie Kui's sister-in-law, Tan Yun!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng was greatly surprised.

Not only did this man marry the Wang family's daughter, but he also hooked up with the Tan family's daughter.

No wonder Shangguan Yu was so tough, daring to issue a black market bounty on Wang Jiayun regardless of the Wang family's background. It turned out that the mistress he hooked up with also had a very strong background.

The Shangguan family, the Xie family, the Tan family!

The three families united together do indeed have the ability to contend with the Wang family.

Chen Changsheng poured a cup of tea for the frowning Madam Wang and asked softly: "Since that's the case, why doesn't the Wang family announce to the public the truth that your big brother is a cultivator?"

Even if the three families joined forces, once they knew that there was a cultivator in the Wang family, they would probably immediately lick their faces and beg for mercy, right?

Wang Jiayun furrowed her willow brows: "This method can indeed solve the Wang family's predicament, but it will also bring about a disaster."

When cultivators go out to train, they will definitely offend other cultivators.

If their enemies know their roots, the cultivator's entire family will face the crisis of annihilation.

Chen Changsheng nodded slightly: "I overlooked this point."

"As long as Young Master is willing to take action to save the Wang family, I..." Wang Jiayun's jade-like fair cheeks flushed red, and she stammered: "This concubine is willing... willing to accompany Young Master at any time!"

Chen Changsheng's heart stirred slightly, how could he not hear the hidden meaning in her words.

Looking at the shy Madam Wang, he said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile: "Is it Madam who is looking forward to me accompanying you? I always feel like Madam is getting the better deal."

"Both... both are the same!" Wang Jiayun's face was full of shyness and anger as she said: "Please, Young Master, quickly leave the residence and suppress the villains who are bullying the Wang family!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go now."

Chen Changsheng smiled dumbly. Just as he got up and went out, he heard a commotion and fighting sounds from inside the residence.

"It's bad! The Xie family, the Tan family, and the Shangguan family have joined forces to kill their way into the residence!"

A servant shouted with all his might.
