The master is inhuman; he beat up his senior brother, destroyed the sect, and then left.

Chapter 147 A New Order of Breaking Free from Control

Upon hearing this, the group quickly departed. They were all seasoned veterans; they easily understood the young man's meaning. Following the Liu family, the Jade Cauldron Profound Sect had chosen to be irreconcilably opposed to the City Lord's Mansion.

On the third floor of Jubaozhai, Wang Moran sat at the head of a spacious room with a gloomy expression.

Nearby, several middle-aged men sat upright with serious expressions, and the whole room was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.

Wang Moran spoke slowly, his voice deep and powerful, echoing in the silent space: "You all must be aware of the Liu family's affairs."

As he spoke, his gaze swept across the faces of everyone, observing their reactions.

But in my heart, I was secretly glad that I had made such a wise decision.

Thinking back on that incident, he felt a chill. If he hadn't acted decisively and chosen to back down, the situation now wouldn't be as simple as losing a suit of armor; it would definitely be a major disaster.

The others present were well aware of what had happened to the Liu family the previous night.

Like Wang Moran, Liu Qing was a powerful cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, but when Liu Qing provoked that person, he was beaten horribly.

When Wang Moran faced that person, wasn't he just as embarrassed and humiliated?

Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

He still remembers the scene when he confronted that person. The powerful sense of oppression and the unstoppable momentum still make him feel lingering fear. He knows that the person's strength is unfathomable and is not something they can easily contend with.

At this moment, a middle-aged man in the room frowned and broke the silence: "Elder, the Liu family suffered a great loss in front of that person this time, which has served as a reminder to us that we must find a way to get closer to that person."

His tone was anxious, because given the current situation, aligning with that person was the best course of action.

Wang Moran pondered for a moment and slowly said, "It's not that easy to get close now. We didn't make a good impression on them before. If we force our way in now, it will only annoy them. You must not act rashly."

His voice was cautious and composed, and the others nodded in agreement.

"Compared to us, the City Lord's Mansion must be having a bigger headache right now, right?"

Wang Moran gazed into the distance with a deep look in his eyes and said calmly, "Old Liu, don't blame your old friend for not standing by your side in this crucial moment."

After speaking, he sat quietly for a while, then made a major decision and slowly spoke again: "From today onwards, Jubaozhai and the City Lord's Mansion will cease all cooperation, sever all ties, and have no further connection."

The moment those words were spoken, the room fell silent. The middle-aged men were stunned, their faces filled with astonishment.

Over the years, the two sides have cooperated well and achieved mutual benefit. To suddenly break off the cooperation would be a significant loss.

Wang Moran didn't give them time to think, and immediately said, "Don't hesitate, this is the wisest choice. The City Lord's Mansion is in trouble right now. If we don't sever ties with them quickly, we'll definitely get dragged into it."

After everyone left the room, Jubaozhai immediately took action, unilaterally canceling all cooperation related to the City Lord's Mansion.

Orders were issued and executed swiftly, and contracts and documents related to cooperation with the city lord's mansion were ruthlessly torn up and thrown away.

The news spread like wildfire throughout the city.

In the streets and alleys, people were talking about it. Various forces were first surprised by Jubaozhai's decisiveness and then followed suit.

Various speculations and rumors arose, and the entire city was shrouded in a tense and uncertain atmosphere.

Inside the city lord's mansion, Liu Wujing learned that Jubaozhai had unilaterally terminated all cooperation. He was so angry that his face turned pale. His hands were clenched into fists, the veins on the back of his hands bulging. His eyes were full of rage, and he cursed, "You, Wang Moran!"

He never imagined that after so many years of friendship with Wang Moran, the other party would be so heartless.

Liu Wujing sat in the room, his face terribly gloomy.

The sudden attacks from the Liu family and the Jade Cauldron Profound Sect, coupled with the decisive break from Jubaozhai, caught him off guard. In addition, with various forces secretly stirring up trouble, Qingmu City now seems to be slipping out of his control.

"Ancestor, Miss is seriously injured and surrounded by several Core Formation experts from the Liu family. If we don't send someone to rescue her soon, she will be in danger!" A soldier commander rushed over to report, as if every second of delay would lead to disaster.

Liu Wujing remained completely calm. He merely narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his beard leisurely, and said calmly, "Don't worry, she can handle it."

At the end of a block in Aoki City, it seemed shrouded in a layer of gloom.

Liu Sisi was cornered alone on a street corner by five Core Formation experts from the Liu family. Her frail figure looked particularly helpless in the dim light.

The five men spread out in a fan shape, surrounding her in the middle, creating a tense atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

The guards who originally surrounded her were all eliminated by the Liu family.

She had several frightening wounds on her body that were still bleeding, but fortunately none of them were fatal.

She gritted her teeth and, unusually, threw the sword in her hand to the ground.

The moment her sword hit the ground, her eyes turned fierce, regaining their confidence and determination. She said coldly, "You think I'm just a pretty face in the City Lord's Mansion? It's time to show you my true strength!"

These words were spoken with absolute certainty, like an ice blade, making the surrounding air seem to chill a few degrees, and a powerful aura instantly emanated from her.
