Water Ink Panel: Starting with Bow Technique to Hunt the Sun and Patrol the Skies Chapter 373 52 Yongzhou Incident

Wu Sheng looked up and saw Shen Qing's figure, his face full of astonishnt as he stuttered, "Boss..."

"You... weren't you at the Jingluan Assembly?"

Shen Qing strode in and casually said, "The Jingluan Assembly has already ended."

"That ans..." A trace of joy flashed in Wu Sheng's eyes as he quickly got to his feet, excitedly saying, "Boss, you won at the Jingluan Assembly?"

"Almost," Shen Qing replied calmly. "I should be staying in the Capital City from now on."

Overjoyed, Wu Sheng's eyes imdiately lit up as he excitedly said, "Congratulations, Boss. Congratulations."

"There's nothing to congratulate, it was just good luck."

Shen Qing walked up to the seat Wu Sheng had been sitting on and asked, "Has everything been alright in Yongzhou since I left?"

He rembered that before he left, there were basically no threats left in Yongzhou.

Whether it was the Zhou Family or the Sun Family, the big households had been mostly dealt with, leaving only those minor governnt officers and officials who couldn't stir up much trouble.

Wu Sheng beca hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Shen Qing slightly furrowed his brow and asked, "What, did sothing happen?"

Wu Sheng said, "Right after Boss left, a mber of the Zhou Family arrived in Yongzhou City the next day."

"A Zhou Family mber? Who?" Shen Qing was puzzled.

He rembered that the Zhou Family's old ancestor had been killed by him, and most of the remaining mbers had not escaped. There shouldn't be any survivors.

How could there possibly be a Zhou Family mber popping out from sowhere?

"His na is Zhou Su," Wu Sheng explained. "He's similar to ; he was sent by the Zhou Family to the Capital to establish connections. He has so roots in Capital City. It's like he tid it perfectly; just after you left, he hurried back to Yongzhou."

"Once back in Yongzhou, he joined forces with Prefecture Chief Dou Wenxi and County Supervisor Yan Xushou's n, trying to take back the Zhou Family's properties. These days, they have been suppressing us, and our situation is not so good..."

By the end of his speech, Wu Sheng's gaze beca sowhat evasive.

Now that Shen Qing had passed the Jingluan Assembly, he had soared to a high position and entered the political arena; his future was boundless.

Yet, with such a situation unfolding in Yongzhou, and him being far away in Capital City, it seed sowhat "dishonorable."

If it caused him to leave a poor impression in Shen Qing's mind, it would truly be a loss.

He felt annoyed within and couldn't help but curse himself for why he hadn't persevered a bit longer.

Shen Qing glanced at him, fully aware of Wu Sheng's thoughts, but he understood that nobody was perfect.

Everyone has an instinct to seek fortune and avoid disaster, as long as there are no fundantal mistakes, the problem wasn't too big.

Shen Qing pondered for a mont and asked, "Does this Zhou Su have any substantial backing?"

Wu Sheng thought and said, "It's said that Zhou Su is quite close with Lord Xue of the Xue Family."

"Lord Xue? Xue Bai?" Shen Qing expressed in surprise.

Wu Sheng asked curiously, "Boss, you know him?"

Shen Qing calmly stated, "Yes, I've t him. I've already killed him."

"Ah? Killed!"

Wu Sheng shrieked in surprise.

He had never anticipated this outco.

Shen Qing killing even a mber of the Shi family, the Xue Family?

That's fierce.

"It's no wonder I've been involved in so many issues with the Xue Family; it seems connected to this Zhou Su."

Shen Qing didn't believe in so many coincidences.

Originally, he had planned to establish himself in Capital City before returning to Yongzhou, but now it seed he needed to move up the tiline.

Shen Qing rose from the bench and walked towards the door.

"Boss, where are you going?"

"Back to Yongzhou to handle so family matters," Shen Qing responded without looking back. "These next few days, find a residence in Capital City."

With that, Shen Qing stomped his foot, his body emitting a burst of rainbow light as he soared into the sky.

He did not inquire about Zhou Su's cultivation.

In his view, if Zhou Su had high cultivation, he would not have waited until now.

Zhou Family had been destroyed, and he had not appeared to the end, indicating that his cultivation would not be higher than the Innate Realm.

Such a martial master was rely easy prey for Shen Qing at the mont.

So people are seeking death, so he couldn't bla himself for their demise.

Yongzhou.

Zhou Family's old courtyard.

A group of officials in black robes and a group of n in various colorful brocades gathered together.

The young man standing in front of them exuded an air of nobility.

This person was none other than Zhou Su, a descendant of the Zhou Family.

Having learned that he was listed on the Jing Luan Assembly by Shen Qing, he had prepared to return to Yongzhou to reclaim the Zhou Family's properties.

So, as soon as the Jing Luan Assembly began, Shen Qing had just left Yongzhou, and he entered right afterwards.

Leveraging the reputation of the Xue Family and the remaining influence of his own family in Yongzhou, he easily gathered a group of supporters and took back the old Zhou courtyard on the sa day.

Subsequently, various other Zhou Family businesses fell into his hands smoothly.

In the crowd, soone nervously said, "Zhou Family's young master, are we really going to the Shen Mansion today?"

"Otherwise?" Zhou Su snorted coldly, sounding annoyed.

"But that's the Shen Family after all, Shen Qing is too terrifying..." a young man stamred, "Do you think he will really die in the Jing Luan Assembly?"

Zhou Su looked down on them contemptuously, "Look at the little spirit you guys have, no wonder you're only branch family mbers. Let tell you honestly, I've already secretly notified Lord Xue of the Xue Family. Their group includes several Innate Realm martial masters. Shen Qing won't have a chance to escape."

"Besides, do you think the Jing Luan Assembly is so easy to get through?" Zhou Su continued with a cold huff, "This ti, the Capital Families have placed heavy bets, including Spirit Void Realm Guardians. Even if Shen Qing narrowly escapes the Xue Family's kill, with his imnse talent, he will still find it extrely difficult to survive the Jing Luan Assembly, he's dood for sure."

The crowd's expressions beca excited as they heard this, many of them being branch mbers of various major families in Yongzhou. After their main families were destroyed by Shen Qing, they had been living cautiously, afraid to stir up trouble.

Each of them felt frustrated and stifled inside.

"I just want to ask you, are you really willing to do it?" Zhou Su swept his sharp gaze over them and said coldly.

"Let's do it! I don't believe that Shen Qing can still turn the heaven! He won't escape this Jing Luan Assembly!"

"Yes, I'm in."

"Count in too!"

...

Soon, many people continuously responded.

Zhou Su finally felt satisfied upon seeing this scene.

Alone, he was weak, but rallying these people might be beneficial.

The glory of the Zhou Family might be re-established by his hands.

"Good. With everyone's help, that damned Shen Family will undoubtedly fall to us."

Zhou Su shouted loudly, "For safety, gentlen, I've specially invited an Innate Master from the Tie Gang of the Capital to guard us here. Senior Lin! Co out and et everyone."

As he finished speaking, a burly man as large as a mountain walked out from the side hall, exuding an imnse sense of oppression.

The attendees were all shocked and couldn't help but step back.

Senior Lin, the Tie Gang's strong man, looked down at the crowd and said, "Let's make it clear beforehand, the paynt you offered is only enough for to take action three tis. If you want more from , you'll need to pay extra."

"I, Zhou Family, always keep our promises; we'll handle it according to the rules. With so many people here, even if I can't afford it, everyone can chip in enough for Senior to act several more tis."

"Ha ha, that's also true. Let's not waste ti then."

Zhou Su nodded, "Over the years, we've managed to snatch so manageable properties, but the remaining ones are tough. Let's deal with that Shen Family first. Have the city gates been secured to prevent them from escaping?"

A few officials in black robes replied, "You can rest assured, I've already given a heads up to the brothers guarding the city gates."

"Good, let's not delay any further, let's set off. Go!"
