Meeting

Compared to Mi County's prosperity and dense population, Chen County had an even stronger martial culture. The reason was that an extremely famous innate martial artist had once emerged from this place, and everyone in the county, from old to young, admired the martial path.

Among them, Wang Kui'an was an exceptionally renowned martial master. Though he had never entered the innate realm, he had spent many years helping those in need, quelling unrest and relieving troubles. His reputation was immense, and he had built up a considerable family fortune.

Xiang Yang arrived in Chen County and found a small inn to stay at. After making careful inquiries, he finally learned the full story.

Sun Tao and the others from Little Merchant Mountain had come to Chen County to establish a power base. They needed a spacious plot of land to put up their sign and establish a foothold, and they had set their sights on a piece of the Wang family's land, intending to seize it by force.

Who were the Wang family? They were unremarkable when viewed across an entire commandery, but in Chen County, they were a top-tier great household. They possessed considerable strength themselves, so how could they possibly yield? The two sides failed to reach an agreement, and so they fought.

The result was that the land was taken, one of Wang Kui'an's two sons died while the other was injured, not to mention the losses among the family's retainers.

With a hatred as deep as the sea, how could he let the matter rest? Thus, regardless of whether they belonged to the righteous or criminal paths, Wang Kui'an invited friends and experts far and wide, already determined to fight Little Merchant Mountain's people to the bitter end.

Xiang Yang was not optimistic about this.
