The next morning, news of last night’s battle had spread throughout the entire Capital City.
In fact, everyone in the Capital City was fixated on this matter.
The Su Family of Yanbei made a move, and Master Wang united over twenty clans to join forces against Su Yang.
In everyone’s eyes, Su Yang was definitely dood. The only question was how he would die!
Even so clans were getting restless, wanting to recapture those who had escaped from their family dungeons.
However, the developnt of the events took everyone completely by surprise.
The Su Family of Yanbei suffered a crushing defeat. The video of Su Ze kneeling and crying on the ground sohow spread throughout the entire Capital City, shocking everyone imnsely.
Subsequently, what happened at the Han Family Courtyard began to spread throughout the Capital City again, with people learning about Su Yang closing the doors and slaughtering all of Master Wang’s people.
Even when over twenty Earth Immortals arrived, they couldn’t stop Su Yang. On the contrary, except for one Earth Immortal who showed up, the rest cowered in the air, not daring to show their faces, which shocked everyone even more.
Who could have imagined that what was supposed to be a certain death for Su Yang would end up with him not only unscathed but also defeating the Su Family of Yanbei and breaking down the opposing forces?
Most crucially, a major figure like Su Ze was beaten to the point of kneeling and crying on the ground, which was truly unacceptable for most. Nobody could understand what exactly happened last night and how on earth Su Yang managed to defeat the Su Family of Yanbei like that?
Yet, the news didn’t stop there. Another piece rapidly followed: Young Master Zhang Seven and Young Master Zhang Eight also participated in last night’s great battle!
When this news broke out, it stirred up an even greater uproar.
Everyone knew about the public dissatisfaction expressed by Young Master Zhang Eight towards Su Yang, so Young Master Zhang Seven and Young Master Zhang Eight joining the battle last night certainly ant they were against Su Yang.
Yet, under such circumstances, Su Yang was still unhard, and Su Ze was beaten and left kneeling and crying on the ground—this made the situation even more bizarre. No one could fathom what was going on with Su Yang, or where such overwhelming strength ca from that could even force back the Martial Champion’s son.
For a ti, the people of Capital City were all deeply concerned, not knowing the real situation of last night’s battle, but they were genuinely fearful of Su Yang!
If the previous incidents had been viewed as minor troubles, with Su Yang considered a difficult villain to deal with, then last night’s battle completely established Su Yang’s position in the Capital City. He could be said to have completely crushed the major families and forces in the city, even standing on equal footing with Lü Donglin!
Lü Donglin relied on his uncle, the Beigong War God, while Su Yang, as a lone individual, stood at this level, which was truly shocking!
At nine o’clock in the morning, Zhao Hu Zi hurried into the living room, where Su Yang was calmly drinking tea.
"Master Su!" Zhao Hu Zi quickly ran to Su Yang’s side and said in a low voice, "There are a lot of rumors outside right now."
"Speak!" Su Yang said calmly.
Zhao Hu Zi imdiately repeated the rumors from outside, to which Su Yang responded with a calm expression, "That’s not rumor-mongering, what they’re saying is all true!"
Zhao Hu Zi scratched his head, realizing that indeed the things being said by the people outside were all true, and hence could not be considered rumors.
"But how did the information about Old Zhang Seven and Old Zhang Eight coming here get out?" Zhao Hu Zi whispered, "We didn’t talk about this matter to anyone outside!"
"The people of the Su Family aren’t all dead; of course, they’ll look to spread the word!" Su Yang said.
"These damned bastards!" Zhao Hu Zi imdiately flared up: "Now there’s this big uproar outside, saying that even the Martial Champion of the Zhang Family is scared of us. This... this is deliberate troublemaking, stirring up discord between us and the Martial Champion..."
"So what?" Su Yang responded calmly: "The way you talk, it’s as if we have a good relationship with the Martial Champion!"
"This..." Zhao Hu Zi scratched his head, awkwardly saying: "But at least we haven’t co to blows, right? If they stir things up like this, then... won’t it cause the Martial Champion to harbour hostility towards us? That... that would be a bit dangerous!"
Su Yang smiled, stood up and patted Zhao Hu Zi’s shoulder: "Don’t worry; regardless of whether there are such rumors outside, the Zhang Family remains an extrely dangerous entity. They will not change their minds and objectives because of anything we do. In their hearts, they’re just calculating when to take action, not whether to hold back due to our actions!"
Zhao Hu Zi listened in confusion, whispering: "Master Su, could you... could you put it more simply? My brain can’t quite keep up!"
"To put it simply, it’s useless trying to please them; they will certainly not let us off. So, there’s no need to be polite with them!" Su Yang said: "Since there are rumors outside, let’s make them clearer. Spread the words I used last night when I rebuked Old Zhang Eight and Old Zhang the Seventh!"
"Ah?" Zhao Hu Zi was stunned; was Su Yang preparing to utterly infuriate the Zhang Family?
"How are the invitations for those three families going?" Su Yang asked.
"They were just delivered; take a look." Zhao Hu Zi handed the invitation to Su Yang.
Su Yang took it and read it over, his brow furrowing.
The phrasing of the invitation was too polite, full of flowery language and even words like ’cordially invite.’ It was all very distasteful to Su Yang.
"Tell them, all the invitations need to be changed!" Su Yang said directly: "Keep it simple; just write ’Master Su invites you.’ No need for anything else!"
"Ah?" Zhao Hu Zi was again dumbfounded; wasn’t this too assertive, too simplistic? It could be called brutally straightforward!
"With these sons of bitches, why bother being polite!" Su Yang said: "By the way, rember to take stock tonight. Those who received the invitation but do not show up, I’ll personally go and talk to them after the banquet!"
Having said this, Su Yang turned and left.
Watching Su Yang’s retreating figure, Zhao Hu Zi felt for the first ti that Su Yang finally had the air of a mighty lord who ruled over all.
In Capital City, aside from the Martial Champion, who else would dare to be so bold?
And Su Yang, he had finally done it!
The invitations didn’t bother with pleasantries; they were a simple summons. If you didn’t co, then he’d seek you out for a talk after the banquet!
Within Capital City, who would dare refuse the invitation?
Excitent surged in Zhao Hu Zi’s heart; he finally understood what a correct choice he had made.
Following Su Yang, he would definitely ascend to a summit he had never dread of before in his life. He was no longer the Great Thief Zhao Hu Zi who was despised by everyone and hunted down; he was now Su Yang’s close aide, a big shot who could point fingers at the Family Heads of the various major families in Capital City!
And all this ca from making the right choice. Zhao Hu Zi was truly very proud of his own brilliance!
