Chapter 291: The Qu Family Attacks

In the Zhang Family residence in Chenyang City, the Zhang Family Head listened angrily to the reports from his Martial Artists.

"All the Martial Grandmasters are dead. Out of fifty Zhang Family Martial Artists, only eight at the Martial Master Realm are still alive. Family Head, you must avenge us!" Several Martial Artists knelt on the ground, weeping and wailing in heartbreak.

The Zhang Family Head asked in a deep voice, "Did those dozen or so Black-Clothed Martial Artists leave any clues?"

"Is there any need to think about it? It must have been the Qu Family who sent people to do this. The entire Chenyang City is spreading rumors that the Qu Family Head is using unscrupulous means to take over Chenyang City and make his Family the sole power.

Ever since the Sima Family was wiped out by a mysterious Martial Spirit expert, the Qu Family hasn't had a single day of peace!" said an Elder of the Zhang Family standing to the side.

The Zhang Family Head nodded; he also believed it was the work of the Qu Family Head.

He understood the nature of the Qu Family Head; he was extremely ambitious, and this incident fit his style perfectly.

"It seems the Qu Family Head is taking advantage of the situation. Since the Ziyun Auction House was robbed by Zhang Wan, he wants to stir up more trouble and frame the Zhang Family for the robbery of the other two shops as well."

The Zhang Family Head thought to himself, "The robbery of the Qu Family's other shops is very likely a fabrication by the Qu Family Head himself. A person like him is capable of such things."

"I will definitely avenge you all, rest assured." The Zhang Family Head said in a low voice. No matter what, he had to pacify these Martial Artists first. As for taking revenge on the Qu Family, he would delay it for a while; at the very least, he had to wait until he had cured his poison.

"Thank you, Family Head." Hearing the promise from the Family Head, these Martial Artists stood up.

Just then, a Zhang Family Clan Member rushed in, looking flustered.

"Family Head, it's bad!"

"What is it?" The Zhang Family Head asked urgently, "What happened to make you so flustered? Don't you see we are in the middle of discussing matters?"

"Family Head, the Qu Family… the Qu Family has attacked! They say they want our Zhang Family to provide an explanation, otherwise… otherwise…" the Clan Member said.

"Otherwise what do they want?" The Zhang Family Head asked furiously.

"Otherwise, they will raze the Zhang Family to the ground," the Clan Member said.

The Martial Artists standing there could hardly endure these words. They had just been soundly defeated by the Qu Family's Martial Artists, and now the Qu Family was actually demanding an explanation from the Zhang Family, threatening to leave nothing of the Zhang Family behind if they didn't get one. Where was the reason in that?

"Let's go and wipe out the Qu Family! We'll fight them to the death!"

"This Qu Family doesn't put our Zhang Family in their eyes at all. Do they think our Zhang Family is easy to bully? They want an explanation from us, but they haven't given us an explanation yet. What kind of explanation are we supposed to give them?"

"…"

Several Martial Artists shouted loudly, wanting to fight the Qu Family to the end.

"Go! Let's go out and see!" said the Zhang Family Head.

He had just spoken of taking revenge, and now the Qu Family had shown up at their doorstep. Usually, he could find excuses to delay, but now that the enemy was at their door, what reason did he have not to stand up for his Family's Martial Artists?

Hearing this, the Martial Artists were very excited and walked out with the Family Head.

Upon receiving the news that the Qu Family had come personally, Zhang Wan also brought his Martial Artists to the entrance of the Zhang Family residence. All the Martial Artists of the Zhang Family, upon hearing the commotion, gathered around.

The Qu Family had brought so many men with them; this was clearly meant to cause trouble. It was very likely that a fight would break out, ultimately deciding the fate of the entire Chenyang City. Therefore, the Zhang Family's Martial Artists gathered solemnly at the entrance, ready to fight the Qu Family at any moment.
