After Guangling Zi and the others arrived, they did not go directly to the Xiah Hou family. Instead, they randomly chose a hotel in the southeast and checked in.
Both Guangling Zi and the others were well aware that the Xiah Hou family was no ordinary family. Going there rashly might cause some discomfort!
Moreover, they came with ill intentions. If everything wasn't well planned, their visit might only end up being a fool's errand.
This time, it was still Guangling Zi, Han Feijun, and Bai Jiezi, but they also brought four others.
Among them was the second-in-command of the Zhifa Hall, the deputy hall master!
This indicates that this time the Guozhe team was completely serious.
Although Guangling Zi and the others booked several rooms, they didn't go to their respective rooms. The group completely gathered in the same room!
All seven people sat on the sofa.
Among them, a very emaciated old man, as if a gust of wind could blow him away, spoke lightly: "Guangling Zi, was the Xiah Hou family previously very strong in their position?"
This old man was the deputy hall master of the Zhifa Hall, named Chou Zheng, whose strength was even more formidable than the three of Guangling Zi, and he was the one leading them this time.
"That's right, it was Ao Wuheng. His attitude was extremely tough, saying that Xuan Shuangzi was just a worthless person, and if he was killed, then so be it. His life wasn't as valuable as their son-in-law's!"
"Are you sure that's what Ao Wuheng said?"
"That's roughly what he meant!"
Guangling Zi dared not embellish with falsehoods, after all, they were dealing with the Xiah Hou family. If it were discovered that he had exaggerated, he wouldn't have a good outcome.
"Han Feijun, tell us what else Ao Wuheng said?"
"He also said that the Xiah Hou family hadn't come out for half a century, and many people have probably forgotten, then he made a move on Qi Yizhou and Qi Ruohai." Han Feijun supplemented just like Guangling Zi, not daring to speak carelessly: "He said that if the Qi family doesn't submit, then let them face the Xiah Hou family of the southeast!"
"The Xiah Hou family is indeed still as domineering!" Chou Zheng sighed slightly.
"Old Chou, it seems that the Xiah Hou family is indeed going to protect the Marshal this time. I'm afraid our visit this time may not go as we wish!"
A man as strong as a bear suddenly spoke from opposite Chou Zheng: "Probably might even have a confrontation with the Xiah Hou family!"
"You mustn't act impulsively by then. The Xiah Hou family hasn't stepped out in half a century, but their foundation is still there!" Chou Zheng reminded: "Don't resort to violence just because of a verbal disagreement."
The others nodded. They had to listen to Chou Zheng after all, since they were all part of the Zhifa Hall.
Moreover, they also knew that Xiahao Yunting and the leader of the Guozhe had an extraordinary relationship. If things got too stiff, it would hurt their pride and peace.
If it can be resolved satisfactorily, it should be resolved satisfactorily.
"Old Chou, we don't have much on our side, but Shu Mountain and the Qi family might not see it that way. There's also the Dongfang family!" Han Feijun said softly: "Moreover, these people were clearly tailing us, with ulterior motives!"
"And Kunlun, clearly fueling the fire from behind!"
Chou Zheng nodded: "I know this, Kunlun merely suspects that Ye Xunhuan has the 'White-Headed Supreme Classic,' and it was said that during the Black List competition, Ye Xunhuan seemed to use a sword move from the 'White-Headed Supreme Classic,' but it couldn't be confirmed. They probably want us to force out Ye Xunhuan's trump card!"
"As for Shu Mountain, it's nothing more than pride. The Lin family was almost supported by them, but it was destroyed by the Marshal single-handedly, even killing many from Shu Mountain in succession. They seem indifferent but are actually building momentum."
Regarding Ye Xunhuan's matters, Chou Zheng understood them relatively well, as knowing oneself and the enemy is key to being undefeatable.
Moreover, Ye Xunhuan is the Marshal and had already been noted by their Guozhe team.
However, Ye Xunhuan hasn't done anything to harm the country's core interests, and plus being Xiahao Yunting's grandson-in-law, they naturally couldn't be bothered to interfere!
If it hadn't been for Xuan Shuangzi's death this time, they would still have given face to Xiahao Yunting, turning a blind eye to Ye Xunhuan's antics.
Of course, they acted this way with their own plans, as now some people were becoming more and more self-righteous, it was time to teach them a lesson.
And Ye Xunhuan is undoubtedly the best blade to make them realize, except for our Guozhe team, no other power can easily deal with this Marshal.
It's no exaggeration to say that both the Guozhe and other powers have their own calculations.
"What about the Qi family?" Chou Zheng showed a disdainful expression: "With just Ao Wuheng and the Living King of Hell from the Xiah Hou family, they could practically wipe them out, the Dongfang family is even less to worry about!"
"As for the Marshal's strength, Non-Jun has evaluated before, not yet reaching the Celestial Being realm, but at least a half-step into it!" Chou Zheng spoke lightly: "Ordinary people really can't do anything to him at all."
"Old Chou, then why don't we watch the tigers fight from the mountain, and then make our appearance?"
Another man, the youngest among the seven, said with a calm face.
"Yuan Zui, we cannot just watch from the sidelines." Chou Zheng glanced at the man and said: "Our goals differ from theirs!"
"We're merely investigating, maintaining dignity, while they are seeking revenge, vastly different from us!"
"Old Chou, I know this, but if it really turns out Xuan Shuangzi died by the Marshal's hand, we Guozhe cannot forsake our dignity, right?"
"That depends on what Xiahao Yunting has to say!" Chou Zheng spoke unhurriedly: "If Xiahao Yunting gives a satisfactory explanation, then we have nothing to argue about, and if we overstep, do you think that will look good to the higher-ups?"
Yuan Zui fell silent. Although the Guozhe is powerful, it has factions and internal conflicts. Despite the conflicts, they all obey one person!
That is, the head of the Guozhe.
His power is overwhelming, and it is said that he has a brotherhood with Xiahao Yunting, and it was also rumored that the Guozhe team once promised Xiahao Yunting the position of the Guozhe's second-in-command, but he refused it.
If we really confront Xiahao Yunting, it's almost like blowing things out of proportion.
For a Marshal, it's definitely not worth it.
"We just need to watch the show."
"Old Chou, what you mean is, we just fan the flames a bit, let the Qi family, Shu Mountain, and even Kunlun fight Xiahao Yunting?" Han Feijun asked thoughtfully.
Chou Zheng looked at Han Feijun appreciatively: "Non-Jun, this kind of talk shouldn't be spoken carelessly, and now I'm a bit tired too, you handle the rest, I'll take a break first!"
Saying that, Chou Zheng got up, ready to leave.
Han Feijun glanced at Chou Zheng, with an understanding face.
He already knew what to do, and what he should arrange!

(PS: The previous chapters were mixed up, it wasn't Little Yi's fault, there was a system glitch. Little Yi has also proven his innocence in the group, and also posted the erroneous chapters in the group. In the book review section of the previous chapter, Little Yi also posted the chapters. If you don't trust Little Yi, you can check the book review to see when it was posted. But now the chapters are normal again. If it hasn't been restored, just download the chapters again in the directory. As for the browser, Little Yi will reach out to the editor tomorrow to address it. And such low-level errors of repeated chapters, Little Yi could not possibly make because Little Yi doesn't want to welcome scolding. Also, hope everyone can verify with Little Yi first when encountering such situations next time before deciding whether to scold Little Yi. Group number: 241770676!)
