Chapter 169:
As Wan Ronghua’s body fell to the ground, the entire Wan family fell into chaos.
"Sir?"
"Sir has passed away."
The guards were nurous and bustling around. So Spirit Refining martial artists were also present, their faces slightly embarrassed.
In tonight’s battle, although they were many in number, they didn’t have much impact, just standing on the sidelines.
Although not to the point of sacrificing himself for Wan Ronghua, the employer’s death under their care indeed made their faces look unpleasant.
The mbers of the Wan family had a drastic change in their expressions. The death of their family head was a major event, equivalent to an earthquake for them.
After the earthquake, several people quickly developed unusual thoughts in their minds.
The Wan family was a large and influential family, one of the four wealthiest families in the Imperial Capital. Now that the family head had died, the Wan family needed a successor…
In the back of the crowd, the concubine Fang Fang’s face turned slightly pale.
She had married into the Wan family only a few years ago.
Fang Fang’s position within the Wan family depended solely on Wan Ronghua’s favor and affection. It all depended on his whims.
Now that Wan Ronghua had died, it is likely that she would face more than just falling out of favor…
With Wan Ronghua’s death, the faces of the people varied.
At first, they were shocked, found it hard to believe, and then more and more complex thoughts arose in their minds.
But in the end, all the complex thoughts quickly disappeared. The gazes of the crowd, which was enormous and dense, couldn’t help but fall on Qiao Mu.

Qiao Mu was already dead.
At the final mont of his life, he sat cross-legged on the ground, slowly closed his eyes, and had a faint smile on his lips.
This appearance was completely that of an elder who had fulfilled their last wish, smiling as they passed away, without regrets.
Uninford passersby might even think that this old man was happily mourning.
However, the Wan family, who had witnessed the entire process, couldn’t help but feel a deep sense of fear and dread when they saw the faint smile on Qiao Mu’s face after his death.
Qiao Mu had serious injuries on his body.
But several experts in spiritual refining could tell that most of Qiao Mu’s injuries were actually self-inflicted. He had used a life-threatening secret technique that put an imnse strain on his own body.
They watched as Qiao Mu rushed in, and then watched as Qiao Mu died. His death was swift and clean, like a brilliant firework that lit up the night sky in an instant.
"This person appears so old, probably at least eighty or ninety years old, right?"
"I’ve seen many old people, and most of them beco more protective of their lives as they age, especially those from wealthy families… But this old person from the Qiao family, to launch such a determined attack at our Wan Mansion, it’s quite surprising."
"What a grudge this must be! Lord Wan seems to have been extrely unlucky for the past eight generations, to have provoked soone from the Qiao family… They must really not care about their own lives."
The large group of guards surrounding them, including the two servants called "spiritual refining
