Strongest Eccentric Consort 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 ma.s.sacre 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?

“Go. Ask everyone in the Mo Family to follow me. I believe that they can't do anything to me even if I refuse to release the two men!”

“Yes, Lady.”

Soon, Lady Mo haughtily led a group of people from the Mo Family to the entrance of Qingyun City.

It was a day and a half's journey between Qingyun City and the Liuyun Prefecture. The forces in Liuyun Prefecture had immediately set out after receiving the news last afternoon. After traveling through the night, they only arrived in the morning.

However, the ground in Qingyun City trembled from the sounds of their galloping horses from afar.

When the people in Qingyun City rushed to the entrance, they saw groups of intimidating and powerful soldiers. This surprised them, and they started to talk about the Li Family and the Bai Family.

“Who are these people?”

“They look so powerful! Everyone there is at least in the fifth level of the Spiritual realm! There are even Mystic Martial realm experts! So powerful! They can trample Qingyun City if they wanted to!”

“I know, I know who they are! I saw them at the prefecture compet.i.tion. They are the men from the Li Family and the Bai Family of Liuyun Prefecture's four big families. The handsome young man wearing white over there is Li Tingtao, the young master of the Li Family. The other even more handsome man clad in blue is Bai Muyan, the young master of the Bai Family!”

“What? Liuyun Prefecture's four big families? Why did such powerful people come here?”

“You don't know because you came here late, right? I heard them say that they came for the Lou Family. They even demanded the Mo Family to release the two men and said that they were here to rescue them!”

“What? How is that possible? Something only happened to the Lou Family yesterday. How can they arrive here today? Wait—could it be that they traveled through the night? That doesn't sound right! I have never heard of the Lou Family having such an intimate power backing them up!”
