Supreme Warrior in the City
Chapter 856 - 855

Chapter 856: 855

Li Changtian had lived to his age and had certainly become quite astute.

He was well aware that the current development of affairs had placed Changtian Martial Arts Hall in a very awkward position.

Originally, they were helping the Liu Family, but now, Zhao Ping’an had forcibly ordered them to confront the Liu Family.

Even if they were reluctant to do so, why would the Liu Family care about their reluctance? Thus, they could only try their best to reconcile with the Liu Family, so that they might have room to maneuver in the future.

As for how to reconcile, they needed to put some effort into dealing with Min’er.

Li Changtian took a deep breath and spoke in a low voice, "Miss Min’er, the death of Young Master Liu here distresses us as well. But at this juncture, there is nothing we can do. You saw how forceful Zhao Ping’an was, what can we do? However, if you want to go to the provincial city, I might be able to help you."

"What help can you offer?" Min’er said coldly.

Li Changtian said, "The Liu Family is large and powerful, and even if you go there, you’ll only meet ordinary members of the Liu Family, not the high-ranking ones."

"Nonsense, I am Liu Changnian’s girlfriend, how can I not meet the high-ranking members of the Liu Family!" Min’er said proudly.

"You might meet a few high-ranking individuals, but the key figures will be out of reach, and your message won’t get through to Patriarch Liu, which would still be useless!" Li Changtian said, "I have a friend who has some connections. He can take you to see Patriarch Liu. At that time, you can explain everything in front of Patriarch Liu. Not only will you be able to relay your message directly to Patriarch Liu, but in the future, Patriarch Liu might even value your efforts for Young Master Liu, and reward you for it!"

Min’er’s eyes lit up; her main reason for going to the provincial city was to confront Zhao Ping’an. Of course, it would be even better if she could meet an important figure like Patriarch Liu, and perhaps even receive some rewards.

"Li Changtian, I see you still have some conscience!" Min’er said.

"Hehe..." Li Changtian gave a subtle smile and spoke in a low voice, "Miss Min’er, when you go directly to the provincial city, I’ll give you a business card. After you arrive, just contact this person directly, I’ll arrange everything for you."

"Great!" Min’er immediately nodded, "If I really meet Patriarch Liu, then I will definitely speak highly of you in front of him!"

"I appreciate that!" Li Changtian smiled faintly.

Min’er, looking proud and confident, completely disregarded the people around her.

As they watched Min’er walk away, a disciple couldn’t help saying, "Master, why are you so polite to her? Liu Changnian doesn’t even like her; he just uses her as a tool to vent. She’s just a mercenary woman who’s only out for money, the Liu Family won’t care about her at all."

"I know!" Li Changtian said calmly.

"Then why still do this?" the disciple wondered.

Li Changtian smiled and said, "This person isn’t important, but she can help us send a message to the Liu Family. Our goal is to let the Liu Family know that we were forced into this situation, and that our hearts are actually still with the Liu Family!"

The disciple suddenly understood and nodded, "Master, you think of everything. This way, even if we go to the provincial city, the Liu Family won’t treat us harshly!"

Li Changtian smiled faintly and nodded, looking in the direction of Dewei Martial Arts Hall, he said coldly, "Su Yang, Zhao Ping’an, you’ve managed to offend all the Ten Great Families of Hanxi Province at once. Humph, I want to see how terribly you’ll die this time going to the provincial city!"

Inside Dewei Martial Arts Hall, Fu Dewei was full of worry. He pulled Zhao Ping’an aside and spoke anxiously, "Ping’an, why... why were you so rash, why did you kill a member of the Liu Family? Now, isn’t that a death feud with the Liu Family?"

"Master, I came here specifically to kill him; it wasn’t a rash move." Zhao Ping’an smiled faintly, "Master Su said that we are going to the provincial city this afternoon. This time, it’s going to be a great shuffle of Hanxi Province, and I expect that most of these so-called Ten Great Families won’t remain!"

"What?" Fu Dewei was astonished, "Master Su really said that? But that... those are the Great Families of the provincial city, they... they not only have masters but also a lot of people. Even if all the great families from our side of Liuan City help you, it... it’s still not nearly enough..."

"It’s fine!" Zhao Ping’an smiled, "Master Su said that when going to the provincial city this time, we don’t need that many people, just few key members of the families from our side of Liuan City should suffice. Master, don’t worry, Master Su has a plan!"

Thinking of Su Yang’s strength, Fu Dewei also breathed a sigh of relief. However, he quickly added, "If Master Su is really going to confront the Great Families of the provincial city, the best tactic would be to catch them by surprise, not letting them prepare ahead of time. Just now, you asking Li Changtian to go to the provincial city to help you, I think this is very inappropriate. Li Changtian is not known for his virtues. I suspect that he will eventually choose the Great Families of the provincial city and definitely betray you behind your back!"

"That’s just fine." Zhao Ping’an smiled, "Master Su said, if Li Changtian chooses correctly this time, Changtian Martial Arts Hall can still exist. But if he makes a mistake at the critical moment and stands on the wrong side, then this time, let Changtian Martial Arts Hall be completely eradicated!"

Fu Dewei was shocked; was Su Yang planning to cleanse all forces in Hanxi Province at once?

In the afternoon, Li Changtian arranged his men and hurried to meet Su Yang and Zhao Ping’an.

At this point, Li Changtian felt not the slightest panic. With Min’er going to the provincial city, the Liu Family would understand his intentions. When the time came, stabbing Su Yang and his group in the back would surely make him esteemed by the Ten Great Families, and perhaps more significant benefits would await him later!

Furthermore, just as Zhao Ping’an said, not many people from Liuan City were following them to the provincial city. From the Six Great Families, only about forty to fifty members were joining them. Among them, the family heads of the Six Great Families were all accompanying.

After Su Yang had eliminated the Fong Family and expelled two other family heads from Liuan City, the Six Great Families reaped a huge advantage. Now, they were absolutely loyal to Su Yang and Zhao Ping’an. Even though Su Yang said he was going to the provincial city to confront the Ten Great Families, they followed without hesitation.

After all, they had witnessed Qi Zhishan’s intervention on behalf of Su Yang the previous night and were aware of Su Yang’s formidable strength. Hence, they were very confident in Su Yang. It seemed utterly foolish for the Ten Great Families of the provincial city to provoke Su Yang!

The family heads of the Six Great Families specifically chose trusted members from their families to accompany them. They were well aware that a lot of the Great Families of the provincial city would likely be eliminated this time. They were going to seize the opportunity; naturally, it made sense to bring along their trusted aides.
