Chapter 221: A Hostile Guest

The next day arrived.

The sun rose.

A huge commotion occurred outside Qingyun City, and even the ground inside the city began to tremble.

"What's happening?"

"Such a huge commotion?"

"What happened?"

Everyone in Qingyun City was shocked by the trembling ground. They rushed out of the city.

The previous day, the devastating massacre of the City Lord's Mansion's Lou Family had shocked them. Would something happen again today?

Everyone felt scared and uneasy.

Lady Mo was still eating breakfast at home when she saw someone rush toward her.

"Lady, something bad has happened! Something bad!"

Lady Mo's expression darkened, and she glared at him. "Why are you shouting? Can't you properly tell me what's wrong? Did Lou Qianxue come back?"

She knew that Lou Qianxue's cultivation was not low. Although she was hard to tackle, the Mo Family had more people. They could exhaust Lou Qianxue to death.

"No... No! It's not Lou Qianxue coming back."

"Then what is it?" Lady Mo asked as she frowned.

"It's, it's the Liuyun Prefecture. All of its four big families came."

"What?" Lady Mo was stunned. She thought that she had misheard. "What did you say? The four big families?"

"That's right, Lady. The Li Family and the Bai Family from the four big families of Liuyun Prefecture have brought their men here."

Lady Mo immediately stood up with a delighted expression. She then anxiously said, "This is a good thing! For such important people to come to Qingyun City, it's a blessing for us! Quickly make arrangements. The Mo Family is now the City Lord's Mansion of Qingyun City. We must host them well."

"No, not that." The servant was on the brink of tears. "Lady, they are hostile!"

Lady Mo was stunned. "Hostile? What do you mean?"

With a despairing expression, the servant spoke, "Lady, they are here to seek trouble with us. They said that they want justice for the Lou Family and that we should release the two men hanging on the city gates."

"What?" Lady Mo's expression became twisted, and her eyes venomously glinted. She coldly said, "By what right do these people from the Liuyun Prefecture are interfering with Qingyun City's matter? Humph! So what if they are from the four big families? We have the Prefectural Governor and the Zhu Family backing us. Are we still scared of them?
