Seeing them happy, Sang Qingxiao joined in their merriment.
Misha remarked that the Liang Family had already begun to take action. As long as Qi Hao remained entangled, the Liang Family would have a significant advantage. Li also sent his subordinates to calm the Surname Family, ensuring that he maintained control and that chaos wouldn’t erupt in the city.
Li Cu added that Qi Hao had made his move early, and the spies among the soldiers outside the city had not yet been fully identified. Old Vine had called upon his friends to set numerous traps, and the Warriors were trapped in the mountains. When I arrived, Old Vine was thoroughly enjoying himself and assured me that he wouldn’t let any soldiers escape from that mountain.
Sang Qingxiao nodded and turned to Qi Xiaomian, who was already engaged in a fierce battle with Qi Hao. Zhang Jingxue stepped forward while Qi Xiao Kun executed their plan. Before they began their fight, they had dismissed the guests from the manor, forcibly sending them back to their lodgings and tightening security to prevent anyone from leaving.
At this moment, Sang Qingxiao realized that a portion of the guards organized by Qi Hao was actually under Qi Xiao Kun’s control. Using this unexpected advantage amidst the chaos, he seized control of the entire Qi Mansion with astonishing speed.
Qi Hao witnessed this scene and angrily cursed Qi Xiao Kun as a rebellious son. Ignoring his father’s words, Qi Xiao Kun continued to seal off the entire Qi Family.
Meanwhile, Qi Xiaopeng had already been sent away to Li under the pretense of being stationed at New State to collaborate with Li in preventing chaos in the city. In reality, it was a precautionary measure to ensure his escape if things went awry, preserving his life.
The younger generation at home was initially planned to be sent out today, but due to unforeseen circumstances, they hadn’t left yet. He urged his mother to take a few children through the secret passage and escape.
Zhang Jingxue nodded decisively. "Once I confirm their safety, I will return. Don’t try to persuade me otherwise; I must see him die with my own eyes. If we lose this battle, I will accompany you on the Underworld Road!"
After sending off his mother, Qi Xiao Kun knew he was no match for those involved in the battle, so he devoted himself to managing everyone in the manor to prevent any disruptions.
At the same time, he kept a close watch on the battlefield; if things turned dire, he might resort to extreme measures as a last resort.
The current Qi Family resided on what used to be Zhang Family's grounds. His mother had just informed him yesterday that there were mechanisms deep within Zhang Family's underground; once activated, it could lead to the swift downfall of Qi Family while potentially endangering nearby residents as well.
Though it was meant to eliminate Evil Spirits, dragging so many people down with him raised questions about whether it was worth it.
In truth, he could have notified those nearby and within the manor to evacuate beforehand. However, on one hand, he harbored a sense of luck and didn’t want to alert anyone prematurely. On the other hand, Qi Xiao Kun had selfish motives; making too much noise would inevitably allow someone to catch wind of the truth. If Qi Family fell, no one would be able to silence them; only by sending everyone down into the Underworld could he bury the truth completely.
For Qi Xiao Kun, eliminating Qi Hao was just one challenge; controlling public opinion afterward would be another significant hurdle.
"Xiaoxiao," he called out, "withdraw your weapons! It’s been a while since we’ve had a good fight. If you continue slacking off, don’t compete with us!"
As Sang Qingxiao complied with their wishes and withdrew her weapons, several Spirit Familiars lunged forward.
Li Cu fought fiercely and claimed three heads while Misha dealt with the last one, occasionally lending a hand to Li Cu. Yin Can circled around some of their Spirit Familiars while brandishing his sword playfully.
Two Little Treasures were so excited that, under their strong insistence, Yin Can released the weakest Spirit Familiar for them.
They pounced, bit, and kicked, working together quite well. When they couldn't win, they would escape, and during their escape, they would occasionally set traps. Just as they were about to be caught, a red vine suddenly burst from the ground, wrapping tightly around the Spirit Familiar.
The Office of Censors sat down heavily with his weight, while Buddha Treasure stealthily extended his claws and scratched fiercely a few times.
In this intense environment of fierce struggle, Sang Qingxiao couldn't help but laugh several times.
