My wife is a stunning female CEO

Zhong Hefeng smiled bitterly.

He, the head of the Zhong family, was attacked and killed!

As a result, no help has come so far.

If he still can't see anything, he won't have to be the patriarch anymore.

Zhong Hefeng sighed, "No matter how hard you try, you can't prevent a thief from within your own home!"

Zhong Hefeng trembled and tried to stand up!

As a result, I found that my legs were too weak and I couldn't stand up for a long time.

Zhong Hefeng simply stopped standing!

He just sat on the cold ground, looking in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

Zhong Hefeng said: "The real culprit behind this matter is the City Lord's Mansion!"

"City Lord's Mansion?" Su Chen's eyes flashed.

Zhong Hefeng nodded, "Mr. Su, do you know? Among the twelve cities of Daqian, Qinglong City was once the best!"

"As a result, there were heavy casualties in the process of expanding the territory."

"To sort out this matter, we have to start from my father's generation."

Hearing this, Su Chen pursed his lips and said, "Speak to the point."

Zhong Hefeng choked suddenly.

He had no choice but to pick out the key points and say, "Mr. Su, you have also seen that the location of Qinglong City is right next to the Warcraft Forest."

"For the practitioners of the Daqian Dynasty, whether they want to gain experience or find cultivation resources, the most direct way is to enter the Monster Forest."

“However, in the Monster Forest, there are many monsters and demons, and dangers are lurking everywhere. Even powerful warriors dare not go too deep!”

"And the younger generation of disciples can only explore on the edge! In fact, they have to wait until the masters of all the major forces have cleared out the area before they dare to let the disciples go out to practice."

Su Chen nodded.

On his first day in Liuli Realm, he encountered two ninth-level Spiritual Sea Realm monsters on the outskirts of the Monster Forest!

If it weren't for him, Zhong Yushang would have died long ago!

Although, these two Spirit Sea Realm ninth-grade monsters most likely appeared on the outskirts of the Monster Forest where they shouldn't have appeared because of someone's mischief.

But this also shows the danger of the Warcraft Forest.

For some younger disciples, the risk is indeed quite high!

Zhong Hefeng continued, "In order to make better use of the Monster Forest and for the sake of profit, Qinglong City has decided to unite with other surrounding cities to do something big!"

"What's the big deal?" Su Chen asked.

Zhong Hefeng continued: "Work together to push the Monster Forest back a hundred miles!"

Su Chen was slightly shocked.

This is no small project!

But if it is accomplished, it is estimated that all parties will gain greatly!

"Did it succeed?" Su Chen asked.

Zhong Hefeng was slightly startled and seemed a little hesitant.

He sighed, "It was a success, but not that successful!"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows.

Zhong Hefeng said: "With the joint efforts of many forces, they have cleared the way and have indeed pushed the Warcraft Forest nearly a hundred miles away."

"However, no one expected that within a hundred miles of this Monster Forest, there are already big monsters living!"

"That time, our Zhong family was assigned to lead the charge and suffered heavy casualties."

Su Chen frowned.

No wonder Zhong Hefeng said that this matter was successful, but not that successful.

The Zhong family suffered heavy losses, and even if there are profits, they won’t get much!

Zhong Hefeng continued, "Many families have discovered that, within a hundred miles of the Demonic Beast Forest, although there are extremely dangerous monsters, there are also countless rare treasures!"

"Many forces have tasted the sweetness of this trip!"

"So, they didn't choose to stop! Instead, they continued to send people in to explore while testing the bottom line of the big demon."

"But our Zhong family suffered heavy losses and could only watch."

Su Chen frowned slightly when he heard this, "Then what? What does this have to do with today's ambush?"

Zhong Hefeng nodded: "This involves the factional disputes within our Zhong family!"

"After the death of the previous clan leader, some people in the family wanted to continue cooperating with other forces and continue exploring the Monster Forest to seek benefits!"

"However, I think that with the current strength of the Zhong family, they will not gain much benefit from participating in this matter. Instead, it will accelerate their demise!"

"So, I firmly disagree. From then on, the Zhong family was divided into factions, and there was a dispute over the route!"

Su Chen asked doubtfully: "But, does this have anything to do with the City Lord's Mansion?"

"Yes!" Zhong Hefeng nodded. "The big families in each city and the city lord's mansion in that city are mutually reinforcing and mutually restrictive."

"Because the Zhong family chose to withdraw from the exploration of the Monster Forest, the voices from Qinglong City became weaker and weaker, almost falling to the bottom."

"Later, the Lord of Qinglong City came to me once and asked me to arrange for the Zhong family to work with the people from the City Lord's Mansion to go on the expedition together."

"At first, I agreed! In the end, the ones who were able to return safely were all from the City Lord's Mansion!"

"And none of the cultivators sent by my Zhong family survived."

Su Chen's heart skipped a beat.

With such a huge contrast in results, if we just say that the people in the City Lord’s Mansion are lucky, I’m afraid no one will believe it!

Zhong Hefeng's eyes showed a furious look, "I am not stupid!"

"Cooperating with the people from the City Lord's Mansion is absolutely courting disaster. How can there be any good results?"

"If we continue like this, the City Lord's Mansion will reap all the benefits, and the danger will fall on our Zhong family!"

"So, even if the City Lord's Mansion invites me again in the future, I will reject them all!"

"But because of this, I broke up with the City Lord's Mansion!"

Su Chen nodded.

For the Zhong family, Zhong Hefeng’s choice was correct!

Zhong Hefeng said: "Outsiders only know that our Zhong family rejected the invitation from the City Lord's Mansion and lost their face!"

"But they don't know how vicious this city lord is!"

“Later, news of my daughter and son’s giftedness spread!”

"Since then, people from the City Lord's Mansion have repeatedly inquired about Xiao Jian and Yu'er's whereabouts!"

"You saw the final result! My son was poisoned, and my daughter almost died at the hands of the monster!"

Zhong Hefeng's eyes were filled with anger and hatred!

As he spoke, he glanced at the other courtyards nearby and said hatefully, "There are even traces of my brothers' involvement in this!"

"This City Lord's Mansion clearly wants to use my Zhong family as pathfinders and consumables!"

"As a result, those idiots naively thought that the City Lord's Mansion would give them benefits for free!"
