C798 The Conflict Between the Dongfang Family and the Sheng Family
The conflict between the Dongfang family and the Sheng Jia.
Half a month later, zhang Xing and the others finally passed through the hurricane steppe and arrived at the Brook Town.
Dongfang Biying and her siblings were in a state of excitement along the way. Not only did they not slow down when they arrived at their home, they became even more excited.
That was because they invited back a war god!
Furthermore, they had also brought back shocking news about Zhaoyang Ancestor being alive.
The Brook Town was located more than 500 kilometers southwest of the Capital, and it was close to a branch of the Redwater River.
The environment was not bad, but the soil here was not suitable for planting crops. People's lives mainly came from the aquatic creatures in the Redwater River.
There were about 200,000 people here. The most powerful ones were the Dongfang family and the Sheng Jia.
The two families, one east and one west, occupied the two docks of the Redwater River branch.
On one hand, it was for the resources in the water, and on the other hand, for the river.
The two families had been fighting openly and secretly for decades. They were evenly matched, and neither of them could do anything to the other.
However, in the recent year, the Sheng Jia had received the help of some unknown force, and had frequently taken action to snatch the Dongfang Family's business.
After a few rounds of competition, the Dongfang family had no choice but to back down in defeat.
Originally, the Dongfang family had half of the river's territory, but they had already lost two-thirds of it, and their income had plummeted.
The cargo business on the dock had also been pried away by the Sheng Jia through various means.
The expenses of the Family had clearly become scarce. Many of the merchants who had attached themselves to their family had changed sides and joined the Sheng Jia.
The current Chief of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Chengye, was sixty years old. The cultivation level was not high, and he was only at the Intermediate War Emperor Realm.
He knew that the Family was in imminent danger, but it was not caused by the Sheng Jia, but the hidden force behind it.
Therefore, he sent the sixth generation juniors of the family, who was led by Dongfang Wang, to once again embark on the treasure hunt.
He hoped that luck would descend from the heavens this time, and he would be able to find treasure.
Even if he gave up the foundation that he had built up over the past few decades, even if he died in battle... As long as Dongfang Wang and the others were still alive, they would still be able to obtain the Secret technique left behind by the Old Ancestor.
Then, they would be able to rest in peace.
Early in the morning, a group of people from the Sheng Jia were blocking the dock, saying that the batch of rare ores that were transported from the Capital had disappeared.
They insisted that it was definitely stolen by the Dongfang Family in the middle of the night.
Furthermore, there were witnesses who requested to search the warehouse of the Dongfang family's dock.
This was pure nonsense. It was nothing more than finding a random reason to prevent the Dongfang family's cargo ship from transporting the goods.
If the delivery time was delayed, the Dongfang family would have to compensate the other party for the loss.
After receiving the news, Dongfang Chengye personally led the fifth generation of the Family to the dock.
"Sigh! Another fierce battle is unavoidable!"
The Dongfang Family and the others sighed with grief and indignation in their hearts.
When they arrived at their own pier, they saw a mess.0
The three rows of cargo containers on the pier that were over 200 meters long were smashed into pieces.
Some of the employees and Supervisor who were hired by the Family were beaten black and blue. They were kneeling on the ground and trembling, not daring to make a sound.
As for the hundred over guards in the Family, they were either dead or injured. They were piled up in a pile, and the ground was filled with their blood and broken limbs and amputated arm.
"This is too much!"
Dongfang Chengye's eyes were on the verge of splitting open, and his temples were throbbing.
It seemed like the Sheng Jia had received some kind of instruction, and it was going to kill him.
In the past, the skirmishes between the guards were small-scale. A dozen of them would have a scuffle at first, then two families would each send five people to duel, and they would win three out of five rounds.
The losing side compensated and gave up their territory.
But this time, their Dongfang Family's pier was directly flattened.
Dongfang Chengye realized that he might not be able to make it today.
