Zhang Yang smelled a conspiracy.
This matter was definitely the work of the Qin family.
However, Zhang Yang found it strange where the Qin family got their influence.
How could they simultaneously put both the Guan and Luo families at a disadvantage.
Could it be...
Zhang Yang suddenly thought of Qin Shengnan's sect, Qisha.
If they were the ones who made the move, then they indeed had the strength.
It seemed this matter was going to be a bit tricky.
Zhang Yang frowned, but after thinking about it, whether it was the Guan family or the Qin family.
He had to save them!
Not for any other reason, but because these two families were in danger because he asked them to search for Han Xiyao.
Therefore, Zhang Yang had no choice but to take responsibility!
Having made up his mind, Zhang Yang immediately called He Qiyan.
"Do me a favor, go to the Guan family and protect them," Zhang Yang said sternly.
On the other end of the phone.
He Qiyan heard the seriousness in Zhang Yang's voice and after a two-second silence, said.
"Okay, I'll go now."
Han Xiyao's disappearance and the commotion in Jiangnan City last night were things He Qiyan was aware of.
Moreover, yesterday, under the leadership of Grandfather He, she and Zhang Yang had reached a consensus.
Therefore, He Qiyan had no intention of refusing Zhang Yang's request and set off immediately.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yang pondered for a while.
Worried that it might not be secure enough, he thought about it and made another call.
"Zhang Yang? What do you need me for?" Fang Zheng asked curiously upon answering the phone.
"Commander Fang, my master contacted me. I told him about your request, and he said... he would intervene when Jiangnan City encounters trouble," Zhang Yang said.
"Really! That's great!" Fang Zheng was very excited and asked eagerly.
"Zhang Yang, did your master say when he would return to Jiangnan City?"
Zhang Yang heard this, deliberated for a moment, and said.
"He didn't tell me the specific time, but he will return to Jiangnan City in advance, so you don't need to worry."
After answering, Zhang Yang changed the subject.
"Commander Fang, I have a personal matter I'd like to ask for your help with. The Guan family is being attacked by an unknown powerful enemy because of me. Can you go and resolve this crisis?"
"The Guan family is in trouble?" Fang Zheng was surprised.
He naturally knew the reason why the entire Dragon Group was dispatched last night.
"Okay, I'll go over now." Fang Zheng agreed without hesitation.
Zhang Yang had helped him so much, so Fang Zheng naturally wouldn't mind such a matter.
Moreover, the Guan family had considerable influence in Jiangnan City, so it was only right for him to intervene.
"Then I'll trouble you, Commander Fang." Zhang Yang hung up the phone and rushed towards the Luo family.
...
Both the Guan and Luo families were in trouble simultaneously.
The opponent's intention was obvious: to make Zhang Yang unable to attend to everything, thus defeating them one by one.
However, Zhang Yang had also cleverly resolved the opponent's tactic.
Now, He Qiyan and Fang Zheng were going to rescue the Guan family.
And he himself was going to rescue the Luo family. This way, no matter what backup the opponent had prepared for him, Zhang Yang could handle it all.
The reason for this arrangement.
It wasn't that Zhang Yang cared more about the Luo family.
It was because from Han's Group, it was closer to the Luo family.
He Qiyan set off from the old residential area, and the road to the Guan family was also closer.
This arrangement was clearly the most reasonable and efficient.
However.
There was one point that gave Zhang Yang a headache.
His master, whom he had fabricated out of thin air, would have to make an appearance again.
And it would be in the public eye.
This was quite difficult to handle...
Fortunately, Zhang Yang had also thought of a reasonable way to resolve this matter.
Of course, these were all things to come.
The immediate priority was naturally to resolve the crisis at the Luo family!
Screech~
The tires screeched violently against the ground.
Zhang Yang parked the car steadily at the entrance of the Luo family.
He was somewhat fortunate that he had been provoked by Huang Xin and her daughter, which led him to buy a high-performance Mercedes-Benz GT coupe.
Otherwise, the journey would have taken much longer.
As soon as he got out of the car.
Zhang Yang smelled a scent of blood and rushed in.
Upon entering the Luo family mansion.
Zhang Yang's ears twitched, and he rushed towards the direction of the shouts and killing sounds.
Along the way, Zhang Yang saw injured people all over the ground, some of whom had died gruesome deaths.
Zhang Yang had some impression of these people.
He had seen them when he came to treat Old Master Luo.
...
Time returned to half an hour ago.
The Luo family was suddenly attacked by unknown powerful enemies, and everyone retreated to the main hall in the backyard of the Luo family.
Despite the protection of the Luo family guards, their faces were still pale and fearful.
Because the Luo family guards protecting them were falling one by one.
The intruders in the Luo family were incredibly fierce.
Although there was only one person!
But the strength they displayed left the Luo family members stunned.
The opponent was masked, so their appearance could not be seen clearly.
However, judging from their voice and attire, they were definitely not old.
It was just that their ruthless methods were chilling.
"Who is this person? Why is he inflicting such cruel harm on my Luo family!"
"I haven't heard of such a person in Jiangnan City. When did my Luo family offend someone like this?"
"Is Heaven trying to destroy my Luo family!"
"..."
The Luo family members were all in a state of panic, huddling together to conceal their fear.
Some of the women were already trembling uncontrollably.
Their legs were shaking, and tears were flowing.
A smell of urine permeated the entire hall.
But at such a time, their hearts were in their throats, and no one cared about this.
Judging by the opponent's posture, they clearly intended to annihilate the Luo family.
The Luo family's decision-makers also looked grim.
In broad daylight.
The Luo family mansion, belonging to one of the three prominent families of Jiangnan, was actually attacked by enemies!
No one would believe it if this were to be told.
Old Master Luo, as the head of the Luo family, was even more furious.
When he discovered that the Luo family guards were no match for the opponent, he had already notified the patrol department, hoping they could provide firepower support with firearms.
But so much time had passed, and he hadn't even seen a shadow of the patrol department!
Could this indicate that the person making the move had immense power?
And that someone from Jiangnan City was also involved.
"Yiren, what did Zhang Yang say? Is there a way to bring the Dragon Group to help?" Old Master Luo asked.
Old Master Luo originally did not know Zhang Yang's status in the Dragon Group.
However, since the entire Dragon Group was dispatched last night to help search for Han Xiyao, Old Master Luo had asked Luo Yiren to call Zhang Yang for help.
"Grandpa, Zhang Yang said he'll be here soon," Luo Yiren replied.
Her beautiful eyes were fixed on the current situation, and they were full of solemnity.
Although she was also somewhat fearful, she gritted her teeth and persevered.
This masked person attacking the Luo family was too powerful.
They dared not flee.
Because...
They had tried to escape earlier, but not a single one of them managed to get away.
Instead, some people were directly killed by the masked man.
However, the masked man's behavior was also somewhat strange; instead of killing them, he only incapacitated them.
Although they didn't understand what the masked man intended to do, they could only submit.
They hoped that the reinforcements would arrive quickly to help the Luo family resolve the crisis.
"Grandpa, do you think this matter might be related to the Qin family?"
At this moment, Luo Youmeng, who was pale with fear, asked.
Compared to Luo Yiren, Luo Youmeng's temperament was clearly inferior.
At this moment, she was already trembling and her face was devoid of color.
Old Master Luo shook his head slightly upon hearing this, "It's unlikely. This person is clearly a martial arts master, and the Qin family wouldn't have someone like this."
"Then what if the other party was hired by the Qin family with a large sum of money?" Luo Youmeng still insisted.
"Grandpa, I think it might be because you pressured the Qin family to help Zhang Yang yesterday, which angered them, so the Qin family..."
"Luo Youmeng, shut up! What time is it, and you're still preoccupied with internal strife!"
Luo Yiren was very angry and directly interrupted Luo Youmeng's speech.
When Grandpa was in a coma.
Luo Youmeng had been eager to seize all the power in her hands.
However, Luo Yiren invited Zhang Yang to cure Old Master Luo, which caused Luo Youmeng to lose everything she had tried to gain.
Not only did she fail, but she was also stripped of all her authority.
Now that the Luo family was on the brink of death, she was still thinking about pursuing the reasons.
This was clearly targeting her.
Luo Youmeng was displeased at having her speech interrupted and glared at Luo Yiren, gritting her teeth.
"Luo Yiren, am I wrong? Besides helping Zhang Yang, the Luo family has never offended anyone!"
"Why is the Luo family facing such a crisis today? Isn't it because of him?"
"All in all, it's all because of you. You always like to get involved with Zhang Yang!"
"Now look, you've implicated the entire Luo family! Luo Yiren, you are truly a scourge!"
Luo Youmeng spoke loudly, and the Luo family members who heard it felt that she had a point.
Soon, they joined the ranks of those denouncing Luo Yiren.
"Youmeng is right. Although the Luo family is powerful in Jiangnan City, apart from the Qin family last night, we have never actively offended anyone!"
"It must be because of Zhang Yang. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't be in this situation."
"Luo Yiren, you must take full responsibility for this matter. The opponent not killing us is definitely waiting for an explanation from you!"
"Quickly kneel down and beg the opponent for mercy, perhaps you can buy a glimmer of hope for the Luo family!"
"Yes, yes, sacrifice Luo Yiren alone to protect our Luo family, let Luo Yiren die!"
"..."
At the brink of death, everyone was selfish.
To survive, as long as it wasn't themselves who were sacrificed.
There was nothing they wouldn't do.
Even if there was a slight possibility of survival, they were willing to let others die for them.
It was truly a case of "better my neighbor's house burn than mine."
Seeing Luo Yiren become the target of public criticism, Luo Youmeng smiled.
It seemed that she still had many supporters.
With her instigation, she might be able to turn the tide and make a comeback.
"You people... have your conscience been eaten by dogs?" Luo Yiren shouted angrily.
Ever since Grandpa handed over all the Luo family's authority to her.
Apart from revoking all of Luo Youmeng's authority, Luo Yiren had not mistreated anyone.
But now, with Luo Youmeng's instigating words, they were all attacking her.
"You must take responsibility for your own actions."
"Since you have a conscience, Luo Yiren, kneel down and use your life to protect our Luo family," Luo Youmeng said with a cold snort.
The Luo family members also felt that it made sense and voiced their support.
"Yes, let Luo Yiren die. If it weren't for her getting so close to Zhang Yang, why would we have to worry together!"
"It's all because of her, otherwise we wouldn't have fallen to this point."
...
The situation in the Luo family's old mansion suddenly became somewhat bizarre.
The Luo family guards were desperately holding their ground, preventing the Luo family members from getting hurt.
However, the Luo family members were not trying to find a way to resolve the crisis.
Instead, they were preparing to push out a scapegoat to exchange for peace.
At such a critical juncture, the family members were actually having internal strife.
This made Old Master Luo, who had heart disease, furious.
Thump!
Old Master Luo, holding his cane, struck the ground forcefully several times with his cane, his voice low.
"All of you, shut up! Anyone who says another word against Yiren will be expelled from the Luo family immediately and leave with nothing!"
With Old Master Luo's decree, all the Luo family members fell silent.
Leaving with nothing?
Wasn't that worse than death?
Old Master Luo's cloudy eyes turned, and he glared at them angrily.
Everyone who met Old Master Luo's gaze lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
Finally.
Old Master Luo turned his gaze to Luo Youmeng, whose expression had shifted from smugness to shock.
"Grandpa, what I said just now was not wrong, this matter is because..." Luo Youmeng wanted to explain something.
But she was slapped by Old Master Luo.
Slap!
The sound was crisp and loud.
"Youmeng, I thought you were just power-hungry, but I never expected you to be so vicious."
"Do you think pushing Yiren out will make the opponent let the Luo family go?"
"You are too naive. I hope this slap makes you wake up. If you dare to disrupt the Luo family's unity again, you can get out of the Luo family right now!"
Old Master Luo said sternly and solemnly.
Luo Youmeng covered her cheek, her eyes filled with venom.
"Grandpa, you hit me? For Luo Yiren, you hit me?"
"Hmph, think carefully about why I hit you." Old Master Luo snorted coldly and turned away.
Luo Yiren also let out a cold laugh and turned around.
However.
The two of them did not notice that as they turned, Luo Youmeng's eyes flashed with a look of madness.
She quietly retreated to the back of the crowd and took out her phone...
"Grandpa, thank you for helping me out of this situation," Luo Yiren said gratefully.
"Girl, why are you talking nonsense?" Old Master Luo gave Luo Yiren a loving glare and said.
"Even if what Luo Youmeng said is true, and this masked man is indeed retaliating because we threatened the Qin family, so what?"
"Zhang Yang saved my life. We must repay kindness with kindness, and Yiren, you have done well. Zhang Yang is a young man worth befriending."
Speaking of this, Old Master Luo sighed to the heavens.
"If the Luo family can get through today, I feel like the sky in Jiangnan City is about to change, and my Luo family will take another step forward!"
Luo Yiren nodded and smiled knowingly.
"Grandpa is the smartest in the Luo family. They are all short-sighted fools."
The old and young master and granddaughter looked at each other and both smiled.
In their minds, the figure of Zhang Yang appeared simultaneously.
But not long after.
The smiles on their faces vanished.
Because the Luo family guards had all been dealt with by the masked man.
And a scene that made them suspicious appeared.
Luo Youmeng, at some point, had appeared beside the masked man.
And an even more shocking scene appeared: behind Luo Yiren were more than ten men in tight-fitting clothes!
