250: The country's attitude
Chapter 250: The Nation's Stance
The news spread quickly.
It followed closely on the heels of the Bai Family's news.
In an instant, the city was abuzz with rumors.
The various great families were all dumbfounded.
Lu Ran is currently at the peak of his power, and he single-handedly resolved a Level 6 monster siege. How dare your Bai Family try to kill him?
The person favored by the Four Great Guilds and the nation, how dare you try to kill him?
What's more, can you even kill him?
Lu Ran single-handedly resolved a Level 6 monster siege. With that strength, can you kill him?
They now couldn't understand the thought process of Bai Yunzong, whose son had died.
And he wasn't even seeking revenge secretly or through a sneak attack; instead, he was doing it with great fanfare!
The citizens walked through the streets and alleys, all wanting to join the excitement.
But they still didn't know what actions the Bai Family was currently taking.
This couldn't stop everyone's heated discussions.
"The Bai Family must be crazy, right? I was on the city wall during the monster siege; Lu Ran could f*cking fly!"
"They must be crazy. Who could possibly kill Lu Ran?"
"Wasn't Bai Lei ranked first in the Tianfu Association? And he was just killed like that?"
"Nonsense, the one who killed him was Lu Ran. Wasn't that simple?"
"The Tianfu Association has released a statement that Bai Lei died during a challenge from a Tianfu Association member, not from a personal vendetta."
"The Bai Family can't handle losing. If he died in a fair challenge, why are they seeking revenge?"
"I'm just here to watch the show. The Bai Family is going to be gone."
...
At the same time.
Tiandao Alliance Headquarters.
Liu Xinxin and the others also received the news.
"Has Lu Ran been notified?" Ye Hongyi asked.
"He's been notified, and I've also spoken with Shen Man. Shen Man's opinion is not to let Lu Ran appear." Liu Xinxin said.
"Oh? Why? How will this matter be resolved then?" Lei Tai asked, puzzled.
"Of course, we'll resolve it. At the same time, we'll see the nation's stance." Liu Xinxin said contemplatively, glancing at Yu Qingcang.
Although Yu Qingcang was also a guild master of the Four Great Guilds, the existence of the Tiandao Alliance made Yu Qingcang much more than just a guild master.
Yu Qingcang was best able to understand and know the nation's intentions.
"The meaning is very clear: the Bai Family is courting death." Yu Qingcang said frankly.
"Then what should we do now? I still think it would be more explosive if Lu Ran appeared in person. It would be so cool for one person to challenge an entire family." Lei Tai said excitedly.
As for worry.
None of these guild masters were worried about Lu Ran; it was impossible to worry!
With Lu Ran's strength, even if the sky fell, he wouldn't die, let alone a small Bai Family.
"The Bai Family is not worth worrying about. Lu Ran can indeed deal with them easily, but that won't achieve the effect we want. Now is an opportunity. Shen Man should also see it. The meaning of the Four Great Guilds and the nation is to jointly resolve this matter. Lu Ran's status and position will be completely established. This is the role of the Bai Family. The timing of the Bai Family's appearance is good. It will push Lu Ran to this current situation, and before the National War. Once Lu Ran performs again in the National War, from then on, the number one person in Dragon Xia will be Lu Ran!" Liu Xinxin said.
Indeed, the thoughts of smart people are different.
Shen Man and Liu Xinxin's ideas coincided.
Even the thick-headed Lei Tai immediately understood.
"I see. Then what do we do now?" Lei Tai pondered.
"Send troops to attack the Bai Family, and do it high-profile, announcing it to the world. As for how the nation resolves it, that's the nation's business. I believe the commotion won't be small either." Liu Xinxin said directly.
"It's settled then! My sisters from the Red Cloak Tower are quite bored right now." Ye Hongyi said, directly opening her communicator.
The Red Cloak Tower assembled and teleported to the Imperial Capital!
Lei Tai and Liu Xinxin exchanged glances.
They also took out their communicators and began to summon high-level professionals from the War Flag National Protection Army and Mirror Flower Water Moon.
Yu Qingcang's method was the simplest.
He was currently at the Tiandao Alliance Headquarters. A single shout was all it would take for him to depart!
Not long after.
On the other side.
Liu Qinghe was pacing restlessly at home, constantly checking his communicator.
There were several messages from Bai Yunzong.
Of course, they were urging Liu Qinghe to help.
Seeing that Liu Qinghe didn't respond, he began to threaten Liu Qinghe with canceling their cooperation and so on.
"Damn it, this Bai Yunzong is really crazy." Liu Qinghe cursed irritably, "The news is already all over the city. I wonder what the Four Great Guilds' attitude is now? And what about the nation's attitude?"
This was difficult.
For Liu Qinghe to give up his cooperation with the Bai Family was also a painful matter.
The current Liu Family was in a dilemma, which made Liu Qinghe extremely agitated.
At this moment.
A subordinate suddenly reported news.
"Our people received news that a large number of War Flag National Protection Army personnel are teleporting to the Imperial Capital."
"People from Mirror Flower Water Moon and Red Cloak Tower have also arrived, and they are all high-level professionals."
"Currently, they are all heading to the Tiandao Alliance. The Tiandao Alliance also seems to be summoning its guild members."
...
Liu Qinghe's eyes widened.
What did this mean?
The Four Great Guilds assembling in the Imperial Capital?
Were they going to deal with the Bai Family?
But...
Did they need to make such a big fuss? Just for the Bai Family's actions against Lu Ran, they were taking such drastic measures?
"If they're coming for the Bai Family, then..." Liu Qinghe pondered.
But before he finished speaking.
Another subordinate also reported news.
"The Professional Alliance, as well as the Imperial Capital Supervision Team, have entered the Bai Family's various industries to conduct liquidations and detailed investigations." The subordinate said.
Instantly, Liu Qinghe's brow twitched wildly!
He could almost certainly conclude that.
All these matters were because of Lu Ran!
Or rather, because of Bai Yunzong's idiocy!
The Bai Family was finished!
Just at this moment.
Bai Yunzong's message came again:
"Liu Qinghe, give me a concrete reply. Are you going to help the Bai Family or not? You'd better think carefully. The Bai Family and the Liu Family have cooperated for so many years, intertwined like milk and water. If you..."
Liu Qinghe didn't even finish reading. His pupils suddenly constricted.
That's right.
The Bai Family and the Liu Family had cooperated for so many years, intertwined like milk and water!
If the Bai Family had problems, what about the Liu Family, which would be dragged down with them?
He instantly panicked.
He directly opened his communicator and cursed, "Help your grandma! F*ck you, what relationship do I have with you? What relationship does the Liu Family have with your Bai Family? Get lost! If you send me another message, I'll block you!"
He strictly and seriously stated the Liu Family's position!
At the same time, he summoned the managers of the Liu Family's various industries.
He shouted without hesitation, "Completely strip away all current cooperation between the Liu Family and the Bai Family! Not a single shred can remain!"
These managers were all bewildered.
"But... if we forcibly strip it away, the losses..."
"Regardless of the losses, strip it all away! Damn it, do you not understand me? If anyone makes any mistakes, or doesn't complete it because they're reluctant to lose money, I'll skin them alive! Do it now, quickly!" Liu Qinghe cursed and urged.
What time was it? Could they still worry about losses?
The Liu Family was going to be gone!
"This Bai Yunzong is an idiot, damn it. How did I not notice it after so many years of cooperation? Damn it, good thing I reacted quickly. I hope it's not too late!" Liu Qinghe's body was trembling slightly.
It was too f*cking terrifying.
He now wished he could slap himself twice.
He should have made the decision directly when Bai Yunzong started acting foolish!
