Demon City, Wang Family Manor.

A heavy snow made the blooming chrysanthemums in Wang Yizhou's courtyard withered overnight, and petals of all colors blew all over the ground.

"After half a year of hard work, I've finished playing like this." Wang Yizhou sighed, squatted down and carefully picked up a pretty complete chrysanthemum.

Just then, a young woman wearing a wool coat walked in quickly. It was Li Qingwen. Because she was walking fast and her breathing was a little rapid, she suddenly thought of what Wang Yizhou often said, "The sky couldn't fall, so Li Qingwen adjusted her breathing, looked at the dense petals on the ground, and said, "Grandpa, you like Fugui chrysanthemums. Next year I will get you some better and more cold-resistant varieties."

Wang Yizhou waved his hand and said without looking back: "Forget it, don't plant it anymore, so don't worry. Qingwen, have you been with Mingyue out? Mingyue, why don't you go back to Jiangnan so soon, right?"

"Grandpa, Mingyue and I met Jiang Hongxue and Zhou Shaotian just now."

Wang Yizhou thought about it thoughtfully, then smiled again: "What's next?"

Li Qingwen simply repeated what she heard in the coffee shop. Wang Yizhou's expression did not change, then walked into the room, put the chrysanthemum in his hand on the table, sat down and said, "This is a good thing."

Li Qingwen didn't expect Wang Yizhou to say this, and couldn't help asking: "Grandpa, I don't understand what you mean."

Wang Yizhou pressed his hand and signaled Li Qingwen to sit down first. Finally, he said: "I heard that Jiang Hongxue is now highly valued by the family, so what Jiang Hongxue said should represent Jiang Shang's meaning. What does the Jiang family win over the Zhou family? "

Li Qingwen thought about it, but finally shook her head.

Wang Yizhou smiled and said, "Jiang Shang and I have known each other since we were young. I know very well what kind of person he is. If our actions did not make Jiang Shang feel in crisis, how could he take the initiative to contact the Zhou family? What's more, our Wang family was kind to the Zhou family back then, so how could Zhou Changchun not remember this kindness?"

"But Jiang Hongxue said that Jiang Yan has already controlled the martial arts world. In recent years, the relationship between the martial arts world and our family is subtle. Now Jiang Yan has controlled the martial arts world again, and I am afraid that the Jiang family will use Jiang Yan's sword to deal with us." Li Qingwen said.

When Wang Yizhou heard this, he frowned again, and kept knocking on the armrest of the seat with his right index finger, which showed that Wang Yizhou was still worried.

After pondering for a long time, Wang Yizhou suddenly asked, "What did Mingyue say?"

"She said we should do whatever we should do, and don't affect our plans because of Jiang Hongxue's one-sided words. But I always feel that Jiang Yan is a factor that cannot be ignored. After all, people in the martial arts world rarely take the law seriously."

Wang Yizhou seemed to think what Li Qingwen said made some sense, nodded, pondered for a moment before saying, "Jiang Yan cannot be ignored. The incident two years ago is vivid in my mind. By the way, is there any news about Chen Qing during Mingyue during this period?"

Li Qingwen shook her head: "She said that the last time she met Chen Qing was a few months ago. During this period, she went to Chen Qing's house and met Chen Qing's wife Xia Xue. Xia Xue said that Chen Qing was in seclusion in Wushen Academy and practiced, but no one knew the specific situation."

Li Qingwen glanced at Wang Yizhou and seemed to have something to say, but she didn't know whether she should say it.

Li Qingwen's reaction naturally failed to escape Wang Yizhou's eyes, "Say whatever you want, don't worry."

"Grandpa, I just think we shouldn't put all our hopes on Chen Qing. If Chen Qing fails in the end, then we have no way out."

Wang Yizhou did not speak immediately, but got up and poured two cups of tea, handed Li Qingwen a cup, and sat down and said, "Our connections in the martial arts world are not as reliable as those of the Jiang family. The only person who can be reliable is Chen Qing. Who else can he expect if he doesn't expect him to be? I think Mingyue's words make sense. The relationship between the Wang family and the Jiang family has developed to this point, and there is almost no possibility of easing. Since that is the case, why should we shrink back?"

Li Qingwen opened her red lips slightly, but she said something to her mouth, but she wanted to speak but stopped.

Wang Yizhou looked at Li Qingwen and continued, "Actually, this matter has been gambling from the beginning, and the risks and gains are proportional. Since we have chosen this path, we have to go on anyway. Qingwen, if you go back, you call Mingyue and say that our Wang family is determined this time and let her do whatever she should do. It will not be a big deal to be afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back."

Seeing that Wang Yizhou had made up his mind, Li Qingwen had to nod and do what she said, although she still had a trace of doubt in her heart.

Wang Yizhou was worried that the Zhou family would agree to the Jiang family's enlistment, so Wang Yizhou later called Zhou Changchun himself. Zhou Changchun swears on the phone that he would not do anything to the Wang family. But just a few days later, Wang Yizhou heard the wind saying that the Zhou family and the Jiang family had joined forces.

When Wang Yizhou learned about this, he was furious. He was in poor health, but he ended up being bedridden.

After Wang Yizhou fell ill, he asked Li Qingwen to temporarily take over the family affairs, but Li Qingwen was just a grandson-in-law of the Wang family. After all, this incident reached the ears of the Jiang family and the Zhou family, and it became the topic of conversation between the two families after dinner.

But the biggest impact of Wang Yizhou's illness was not the ridicule of the Jiang family and the Zhou family, but the members of the Wang family faction changed their minds and gradually moved closer to the Jiang family faction. In less than two months, the Wang family faction's strength was reduced by half, and it was originally inferior to the Jiang family faction and was once facing collapse.

Just when the Jiang family was about to declare victory, Jiang Yan returned and brought more than a dozen subordinates, including Zhang Daoran.

Jiang Shang knew Zhang Daoran's identity. Seeing that Zhang Daoran was respectful to Jiang Yan and spoke to the leader of the alliance, Jiang Shang was finally sure that the news that Jiang Yan had sent back before was true. He had already taken the throne of the leader of the martial arts world.

Jiang Shang was happy. The Jiang family held a big banquet and invited famous figures. First, to congratulate Jiang Yan on his achievements, and second, to tell other forces that were ready to move, the Jiang family's strength.

After the banquet ended and the guests dispersed, Jiang Shang specially brought Jiang Yan to his residence, brewed a pot of good tea, and said with a smile: "Yan'er, Grandpa's expectations for you since he was a child were the highest, and you did not disappoint Grandpa. Now you are in charge of the martial arts world, Jiang Zihan has also made a name for himself in politics, and your third brother has also improved slightly recently. There are three of you among the juniors of the Jiang family, which is as solid as a god. Grandpa can also be content with one hundred hearts. Haha."
