Zhao Dongming, noticing Ge Kaiyang’s confusion, chuckled and said, "This is the information I’ve gathered recently. It is said that a disciple of Su Yang, called Xiao Hei and Jeang Zier have both arrived in Capital City. However, neither of them has t with Su Yang, and he’s unable to contact them either. Thus, Su Yang has been searching for them all this ti."
"And I, through so channels I’ve in Capital City, have extensively traced Jeang Zier’s movents post her arrival and found this purple veil in the northern forests. I have no idea what Jeang Zier has gone through, but she has been missing for a long ti, and Su Yang can’t find her. I think we can use this purple veil to bait and lure Su Yang out."
Ge Kaiyang looked at the purple veil with so doubt, "Are you sure this veil can draw out Su Yang?"
"No problem at all!" Zhao Dongming asserted, "I’ve heard that Su Yang has been lingering in Capital City for such a long ti just to look for his disciple and Jeang Zier. Besides, Jeang Zier is extrely beautiful, and I suspect she might have a special relationship with Su Yang. Also, Su Yang’s Divine Physicians Alliance is being managed by Jeang Zier; he couldn’t possibly ignore her. With this veil, it will be easy to draw him out."
Ge Kaiyang slowly nodded, "Then what?"
"It’s simple then," Zhao Dongming said. "I’ll talk to the seventeen families and have them intercept the people Su Yang rescued from the dungeon. As for us, we just wait for Su Yang and Lü Donglin to co. Once those two arrive, don’t expect them to leave alive."
"Lü Wenbang died at Su Yang’s hands precisely because of such tactics, so won’t Su Yang try the sa again, dispatching a group of people in advance, turning the tables on us?" Ge Kaiyang frowned and voiced his concern, "Don’t forget what happened to Lü Wenbang."
"You have nothing to worry about," Zhao Dongming assured him. "This ti, there’s no way for Su Yang to know about our plan or make any early arrangents. Moreover, the seventeen families have no way out this ti; they have no choice but to fight desperately against those who erged from the dungeon. Under such circumstances, Su Yang simply won’t have the resources to ambush us!"
After careful thought, Ge Kaiyang slowly nodded, "Alright, let’s proceed with your plan then. However, everything hinges on whether the seventeen families are willing to cooperate. We must avoid Su Yang’s notice first and talk with the families."
"Of course!" Zhao Dongming smiled, "I will go talk to them about this matter tomorrow night."
"Tomorrow night?" Ge Kaiyang expressed his surprise, "Su Yang will be dealing with them tomorrow noon, and you are going to discuss this tomorrow night? Isn’t that too late?"
"Not at all," Zhao Dongming said with a smile, "Let them speak with Su Yang first. Only when they truly sense the crisis and know what real desperation is will our discussion bear fruit. By then, they will have no other option."
Ge Kaiyang’s eyes lit up, "You’re really thorough, indeed. Let’s talk to them when they’re trapped and out of options. By that ti, it won’t just be about collaborating to deal with Su Yang anymore!"
Zhao Dongming chuckled deviously, this ti they wouldn’t only be dealing with Su Yang, but also gaining so advantages from those seventeen families!
...
The next day, news of Lü Wenbang’s death spread throughout Capital City, shocking everyone.
Lü Wenbang had made such thorough preparations and yet was counter-killed by Su Yang, making people even more wary of him.
Those families previously persuaded by Lü Wenbang to stay out of the fray were now secretly relieved. If they had gotten involved, they would have found themselves in trouble.
There were many powerful families in Capital City, and if they united, they could definitely overpower Su Yang.
However, these families did not dare to make a move now.
After the families of Capital City had previously joined forces and sought Su Yang across the city with more than a hundred Earth Immortals, they failed to kill him and instead suffered heavy losses among their ranks.
Now that Su Yang had so many people by his side and those who had co out of the dungeons were following him, the powerful families of Capital City dared not stir up too much trouble.
After all, if they failed to kill Su Yang again, future troubles would only escalate. With so many people by Su Yang’s side, they would not withstand a counterattack, and no family in Capital City could bear that burden.
Thus, these families were waiting for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow. Otherwise, no one was willing to beco the sacrificial lamb and directly confront the current Su Yang.
The seventeen families had deep grudges against Su Yang and had suffered trendous losses in the chaotic battle, leading them to join forces against Su Yang as persuaded by Lü Wenbang.
However, Lü Wenbang’s seemingly flawless plan had failed, putting these seventeen families in an extrely embarrassing situation.
Reluctant as they were, the Family Heads of the seventeen families had no choice but to attend Su Yang’s banquet truthfully.
Though it was called a banquet, everyone understood it was just a pretext to discipline the seventeen families.
All eyes were on the banquet, as everyone wanted to know what demands Su Yang would make and what price he would have the seventeen families pay. After all, Su Yang’s thods were known to be incredibly ruthless, and the fact that these families dared to provoke him in such a situation was akin to courting death!
Indeed, so speculated how many of these seventeen families would continue to exist afterward.
Many families sent representatives to Su Yang’s banquet location, only to discover upon arrival that they couldn’t enter the event.
The Family Heads of the seventeen families had arrived surrounded by many of their clan experts. However, these experts weren’t allowed into the banquet hall and were left outside.
Needless to say, the Family Heads were very dissatisfied with this arrangent, but their dissatisfaction mattered little; their influence had significantly diminished.
In the end, the Family Heads of the seventeen families had to enter the banquet alone.
The banquet lasted almost three hours. No one knew what exactly happened inside, nor the content of the discussions.
But judging from the ashen faces of the seventeen Family Heads as they left, it was clear that the eting had been extrely unpleasant.
Many families covertly began inquiring about the details of the discussions, but the seventeen Family Heads were too angry to disclose, with so even having outbursts nearby. This behavior only increased speculation about what Su Yang had demanded to cause such fury.
