Chapter 117: The Qin Family’s Great Victory

On the main road leading to Chenyang City, a group of people was hurrying along.

"I wonder how the Qin Family is doing?"

An old man muttered.

The young man beside him listened, his expression somewhat grim, and said:

"Father, I don't understand. Why did you form an alliance with the Qin Family? And why are you helping the Qin Family?"

He had wanted to ask this for a long time, but out of deference to his father's authority, he had kept silent.

Now, hearing his father's murmuring, he could no longer hold back.

His father had always been very prudent in his actions, but this time, he seemed to have gone mad, insisting on forming an alliance with the Qin Family.

The Ouyang Family Head heard his son's words and smiled faintly, saying:

"At first, weren't you also happy to see the Qin Family become one of the Four Great Families of Liu City?

What, now that the Qin Family is in trouble, you look down on them?"

"This… this… I just didn't expect it!"

The young man's expression grew even uglier as he said.

The Ouyang Family Head sighed and said:

"Who could have expected it?"

Things change so quickly in the world. If the Qin Family had a few years, they would surely soar to great heights.

Alas…"

The Ouyang Family Head shook his head and sighed again, only lamenting the impermanence of the world.

Just then, a fast horse galloped over, and everyone looked towards it.

"It's our people!"

The young man exclaimed.

He exclaimed because he knew these were the Intelligence Personnel investigating Liu City.

If there wasn't something major, the Intelligence Personnel would never be in such a hurry.

And what major events in Liu City concerned them the most right now?

First, the Qin Family being annihilated; second, the Wang Family and Chen Family not wanting to let go of the Ouyang Family and pursuing them.

Other than that, he couldn't think of any other significant events.

The Intelligence Personnel galloped directly in front of the Ouyang Family Head, knelt on one knee, wanting to speak, but couldn't utter a single word.

"Was the Qin Family annihilated?

Is Qin Yuan dead?

Is Qin Ming dead?"

The young man beside the Ouyang Family Head was anxious and asked loudly.

The Intelligence Personnel wanted to speak but still couldn't, only gasping for breath.

"Quick, get him some water!"

The Ouyang Family Head shouted.

Immediately, someone handed the Intelligence Personnel a bag of water.

The Intelligence Personnel, dressed in black, took the water and drank it furiously.

He didn't care that the water spilled and splashed onto his clothes.

"I'm dying of impatience! What news is so urgent that he ran like this?"

The young man dismounted and stomped his foot.

Intelligence Personnel ride horses, so they shouldn't be very tired.

But this Intelligence Personnel was so out of breath he almost collapsed, clearly indicating that the news was too important, and he had rushed without regard for himself.

After the black-clad Intelligence Personnel finished drinking the water, he finally managed to speak, stammering:

"Family Head, something big has happened in Liu City! The Qin Family… the Qin Family…"

"What happened to the Qin Family? Hurry up and tell us!"

The young man wished he could slap the Intelligence Personnel to death; he was making them so anxious.

"The Qin Family has Great Martial Masters, many, many Great Martial Masters! They have already annihilated the entire Chen Family, and the Wang Family and the City Lord have retreated.

A great victory, the Qin Family's great victory!"

What?

The Qin Family's great victory?

The Qin Family suddenly has many Great Martial Masters?

These pieces of news made the young man tremble.

"Good! Good!" The Ouyang Family Head roared, "The Qin Family has achieved a great victory! We're returning to Liu City.

No more moving!"

"Haha… Qin Family, you're truly amazing, Liu City…"

The Ouyang Family Head laughed wildly, looking up at the sky.

This time, he had gambled correctly!
