Chapter 222: Someone"s Here Again!The crowd was having a heated discussion when they heard a rapid series of throttling sounds coming from afar.
“Huh? Someone"s here again?” Everyone looked in the distance with surprised faces.
Another group of skilled people had come on horses. The imposing manner made them look extraordinary.
“Who are they?”
“What exactly is going on? Our Qingyun City has never been this crowded before!”
“Ahh… T-that"s…”
After recognizing who they were, someone in the crowd shrieked. They had yet to open their mouth, when—
The young master of the Li Family, Li Tingtao, and the young master of the Bai Family, Bai Muyan, spoke up. “Young Master Su, you"re here as well.”
“Su?”
“Could it be the Su Family from the Liuyun Prefecture? The main family that the Su Family of Qingyun City is a branch of?”
“It"s also one of the four major families in Liuyun Prefecture! Oh my G.o.d! I didn"t expect that three of the four major families in Liuyun Prefecture would gather in Qingyun City! Is Qingyun City going to face some major changes?”
Everyone in Qingyun City looked at these big figures who were rarely seen in public.
Su Yingying, who had just arrived, glanced at the two b.l.o.o.d.y men on the city walls and smiled at Li Tingtao and Bai Muyan. “Both of you"re so proactive!”
“Same for you.”
They revealed a smile as if they shared an unspoken understanding.
“We"re all here. An Shaoning is a smart person. He would surely come. Why don"t we wait for him?”
“Sure.”
The three of them nodded, not knowing that An Shaoning was actually the first to arrive.
He was among the crowd in Qingyun City at that moment. Standing beside him was a tall woman with a hat. It was Lou Xiaoxiao, who had just woken up. She had not fully recovered from her injuries.
She stared at the two b.l.o.o.d.y men on the city wall, and her eyes turned red. “No, no! I am going to save them. I must save them!”
An Shaoning had rescued her the previous day, and she had only woken up this morning. The alchemist had asked her to take a good rest, but she insisted on coming here.
“Miss Xiaoxiao.” An Shaoning grabbed her wrist. “Before you came here, you promised me that you would not act rashly.”
Lou Xiaoxiao looked back at him. Her eyes, the eyes of a beautiful girl with a bright personality and a strong and heroic spirit, were full of tears. “But I… I can"t, I can"t just watch like this…”
An Shaoning continued to hold her hand. “Don"t worry! I will save them for you, but right now, there are too many of them. It"s obviously not a good time to do it. Wait a little while more. Wait for my father to send us some support. When they arrive, I will immediately save your loved ones.”
A peculiar emotion surged in Lou Xiaoxiao"s heart, and her heartbeat became unstable. She gritted her teeth and nodded. “Okay, An Shaoning, I trust you.”
I trust you.
When he heard these three words, his eyes instantly glowed and his expression became warm.
The two were still talking when smoke rose in the distance again.
Before they could see clearly, they heard the people around them shout, “Again. someone is coming here again!”
“It"s the An Family from Baiyue City!”
“And the Sikong Family from Baiyue City…”
“Gosh, there are so many people…”
The exclamations had not stopped, and the first group had yet to arrive when another group appeared behind them.
“Here again! G.o.d, what"s going on! These are all big shots. Are they going to gather in Qingyun City today?”
“My G.o.d, even in Liuyun Prefecture, it"s difficult to gather so many forces in one day, right?”
Groups of people appeared one after another.
Regardless of how powerful they were, all of them could be recognized by their names.
Li Tingtao, Bai Muyan, and Su Yingying were also dumbfounded.
“S-so many people have come… Could they have the same purpose as us?”
“Yeah, I never thought that Ms. Lou is so influential.”
“And none of us came here because she requested or something like that. We all came of our own accord…”
As they spoke, the three of them looked at each other and saw the shock in each other"s expressions.
