Chapter 313 - Dongxian Family Retaliates (2/2)
If things got too dangerous, he could just leave the town with Nanlan Qianxue.
He was not a saint.
Without any form of reward, there was simply no reason to put their lives in danger for the sake of a town that they had absolutely nothing to do with.
Of course, Lu Tianzi was hoping that the situation would not become as extreme as that.
Nevertheless, since he had no idea what was going to happen, Lu Tianzi decided not to worry about it anymore.
Keeping away his spoils, his eyes turned towards a huge tub in the room.
Continue with practice!

The night passed quickly, and morning came along with a raquet that was rather uncharacteristic of the current Bog Town.
Knock-! Knock-!
”Open up!” ”Open up right now!”
A group of men shouted as they slammed their fists against the front door of an ordinary looking house.
”Who are you people?” someone questioned from behind the door.
”This place is suspected to be a gathering spot for criminals plotting to overthrow the Town Lord! Open up before we force our way in!” the men yelled in response.
”Absurd! We have nothing to do with such matters!”
”If you are not going to do as you are told, then don't blame us for what's coming next!” the men sneered.
As they spoke, the man in the lead raised his boot before stamping forward with all his strength.
Bang-!
The front door of the house flew upon, revealing a small group of people gathered within.
”How dare you break into my house like this? Do you have no eyes for law and order?!” an elderly man stepped up to confront them.
”Heh,” the man in the lead snorted in disdain before swinging his arm across, smashing into the elderly man's face. ”You are the ones obstructing law and order if you try to stop us from doing our jobs!”
Gasp-!
The other people in the house gasped in horror as the impact sent the elderly man stumbling to the ground, his broken nose bleeding profusely.
”Search the place!” the man in the lead shouted, not one bit concerned about the miserable state that the elderly man was in.
At his command, the rest of the men moved out, thrashing the place as they looked around, seeming to be searching for something in particular.
”Wait, you can't do this! Stop!”
”What did we do? Help! Someone inform the authorities!”
But all they could do was to wail and shout. Against this group of powerful martial artists, the group of people within the house were powerless to resist.
Just like that, they could only watch on helplessly as their house was ransacked in broad daylight.
They were not the only victims either.
A similar scene was happening in a few other places around Bog Town as well, with various houses being forcibly entered and the insides thrashed.
”Hurry and inform the authorities!”
”Let the town lord know about this!”
Their neighbours could only watch on in horror after sending a message to inform the authorities. Even if they wanted to help, they knew full well that they were too weak to stop these men.
If they really took action, not only would they be unable to salvage the situation, but they would also be bringing misery upon themselves.
In their hearts, all of them were secretly hoping that after these men were done with their current targets, they would just leave instead of moving on to others!
Damn it!
Just where on earth did these men come from?!

At the Dongxian Residence, Master Dongxian sat at his desk. His gaze was full of malice as he looked out the window and into the distance.
Those damned peasants!
As if targeting the Dongluo Family was not enough, now those bastards actually grew brazen enough to ruin his transaction?
Did they even know just how much he had lost because of that?
There was no way he would take this lying down!
Yesterday it was this transaction, who knew what would be next?
Attack his shops?
Kidnap his people?
Before things got any worse, he would chase every last one of them out of the town, even if he had to do it with his own two hands!
To begin with, he would take away every single location that those bastards had been rumoured to gather at. As long as they remained within the walls of Bog Town, he would not give them any room to breathe.
Since they did not know their place, he would let them understand it by force, so that they would never dare to rise up against the Dongxian Family ever again!
