Although the Xu and Jiang families have only recently become hostile, their grudges have actually been brewing for a long time.

The two sides were already rivals two generations ago.

The Xu family originated from Jiangcheng, and back then, they were the only family in Jiangcheng that could rival the Jiang family.

In order to monopolize the market, Xu Jiajian took an unorthodox approach, attempting to completely drive the Jiang family out of Jiangcheng.

After his misdeeds were exposed, he suffered the consequences and left Jiangcheng in disgrace before finally settling down in Mucheng.

Later, the Xu family gradually encroached upon the Mucheng business district, becoming the dominant force, and the events of that year were gradually forgotten.

However, everyone knows the truth.

"Since Xu Mingchang and his son took over the family business, although they have not explicitly forbidden us from going to Mucheng, they have been guarding against us like we are thieves. A few months ago, I went to Mucheng for a competition, and if I hadn't been with the national team, I definitely wouldn't have been able to come back safely."

During that time, she felt like someone was following her whenever she went out.

I almost got into a car accident several times.

"It must have been the Xu family who did this." They didn't go all out because they were worried that if the national team investigated, they would have a hard time escaping punishment.

So it was just some childish tricks to remind her whose territory Mu City was.

Jiang Yueming said seriously, "I haven't joined the company, nor have I participated in your business competition, yet their family is so wary of me. What about you, my third nephew?"

Jiang Zhou is the pillar of their family and the head of the Jiang family business.

With such an identity, it would be impossible for him to go to Mu City openly and honestly without being targeted and destroyed by the Xu family.

The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became tense.

Even though Grandma Jiang is usually very calm, there was a hint of worry in her aged eyes.

On the contrary, it was Jiang Zhou.

Without a flicker of emotion: "They've already gone all out; they won't do anything to me anytime soon, and besides..."

He paused, then looked up at the girl across from him, who was engrossed in eating.

His thin lips unconsciously curved into a smile.

"I am not alone."

He was completely absorbed in watching.

After a long pause, he pretended nothing had happened and continued in a deep voice, "The car accident more than three months ago was related to the Xu family. Even if they don't come looking for me, I will take the initiative to find them." Hurting him and his family will inevitably come at a price.

He must find the person who is pulling the strings behind the scenes.

Otherwise, even if we resolve this life-threatening crisis, new problems will arise next time.

He doesn't like having his life and death controlled by others.

Jiang Zhou's words plunged the dining table into complete silence.

They knew that no one could change Jiang Zhou's decision, and they also knew that the long-standing grudge with the Xu family had to be resolved.

They cannot avoid this battle.

Only by defeating their opponent can they survive.

The same applies to Song Qingge.

Upon hearing that Song Qingge was going to Mu City in two days, Yue Lingyu couldn't sit still and used her spiritual power to travel directly through the city.

"Do you even know what Mu City is? Even if you have a talisman that can protect you from one attack, Mu City is the home of evil spirits!"

Due to its geographical location and historical reasons, Mu City was the easiest city to conquer, and many people died there.

Over the years, the accumulated resentment and evil spirits have formed an extremely yin place.

It cannot be resolved.

People born in Mu City are basically of extremely yang or extremely yin constitutions, and only in this way can they survive.

Life expectancy is the lowest among all cities.

Yue Lingyu earnestly advised, "By dispelling that vengeful spirit now, you won't lose too much spiritual power. In comparison, it's at least acceptable. But if you go to Mu City, you might lose even more, and your spiritual power might even be polluted."

As you know, if your spiritual energy isn't pure, breaking through to the next realm is practically impossible. You'll stop here, with no further possibility of advancement.

Although the vengeful spirits still have connections with the Jiang and Xu families, breaking them up does indeed involve some risks.

But he's there.

"I'll help you, no problem at all!" He was absolutely confident.

Song Qingge smiled faintly: "I know what you're saying, but as a cultivator, one must keep the promises one makes."

Once you delve into cause and effect, you must resolve the issue properly.

Her eyes were calm: "I can't abandon the lives of everyone in the Jiang family just to protect myself." Even if she could, Heaven would punish her.

One day, she will suffer the consequences.

"Sigh..." Yue Lingyu sighed deeply.

He looked at Song Qingge helplessly for several seconds, then took out a peach wood sword from his magic bag and handed it to her.

He patted her shoulder solemnly: "Take it. Good luck."

Peach wood swords are made of peach wood, which has been used since ancient times to make ritual implements to suppress evil spirits.

Song Qingge's eyes lit up: "You're giving me something this good?" She accepted it with both hands.

Pure peach wood is extremely rare, and this peach wood sword, when held in hand, contains a surging power.

Moon Spirit Jade arrogantly burrowed back into its original form.

"Don't be too touched. I have too many treasures, and there's no use for them. But considering how carefully you cultivated this Ganoderma lucidum before, I'll help you out."

I hope I can see his friends safely again.

Song Qingge understood perfectly, and without saying anything too sentimental, she simply gently stroked Lingzhi's small umbrella.

"Tsk, don't tickle this Ganoderma lucidum, it's itchy."

"Come on," Song Qingge chuckled. "You love it when people tickle you."

Since taking human form, Yue Lingyu's favorite human item has been a back scratcher.

Outrageous.

The two were joking with each other when there was a knock on the door.

It was Uncle Li's voice outside the door: "Young Madam, Mr. and Mrs. Tang have come to visit you, they seem to have something urgent to discuss."

It's been almost half a month since the Tang family banquet, and it seems that Ran Xing and Tang Chengze can't hold on any longer.

However, she didn't expect that it wasn't Tang Chengze who came to ask for her help.

Ran Xing suffers a backlash, and those who get close to her will also suffer misfortune, especially Tang Chengze, with whom she has emotional ties.

So this must be the reason why Mr. Tang's wife came looking for her.

As soon as she entered the reception room, the couple immediately stood up to greet her: "Master Song!"

Tang Zhishan said with shame, "I am so sorry to bother Master Song again. My wife and I really have no other choice but to ask Master Song to help our son."

Although my son is obsessed with romance, he's not a bad person, so there's still hope for him.

However, he had a very unpleasant argument with Xiaozhou at the last party. As a father, he was worried about his son's safety but was too embarrassed to bother Xiaozhou's wife.

That's why it's been delayed for so long.

"It's nothing." Song Qingge sat down, looking calmly at the couple.

The Children Palace has lost its luster, a change indeed observed at the banquet.

She cut to the chase: "What he's going through now is because of Ran Xing. This isn't a good match; forcing a relationship will only lead to more unpredictable things happening in the future."

"Sigh." Tang Zhishan and his wife exchanged a glance, their eyelids drooping.

He had completely lost the spirited demeanor he displayed at the party.

"I understand, but..." That brat is blinded by love, and there's nothing he can do about it.

Madam Tang pleaded, "So we'd like to ask Master Song to go to the hospital with us to help Ran Xing." The only way is to first help the girl resolve the backlash.

Otherwise, if things continue like this, there won't be a single good part of my son's body.

For the sake of her son, she was able to forgive the person who once wanted to marry her.

Song Qingge was shocked and stood there stunned for two seconds.

Tang Zhishan assumed she was still bothered by what his son had said at the party, so after apologizing again, he said, "As long as the master is willing to help, I'm willing to pay any price!"

The word "money" brought Song Qingge back to her senses.

He remained calm on the surface: "Okay, I'll go with you."

My heart is bursting with joy.

She was naturally delighted to have business delivered to her door.

Outside the ward, Tang Zhishan received a work call from Mu Cheng, asking her to go in with Mrs. Tang first.
