Chapter 187: Ling Yue

The moment the patriarch realized the gravity of the situation, a deep chill arose in his heart. He knew that the Wang Clan would not survive this disaster no matter what. 

He also realized that the power structure of the city would undergo a huge change after today. The City Lord had been waiting for such an opportunity. He would never let go of this. The City Lord's office and the Ling Clan would surely swallow the power that was in the hands of the Wang Clan. It would in turn pressure other big clans present in the city.

The Wang Clan Patriarch also realized that the other clans will not have a good time in the city after this. More and more power would be swallowed and the clans would eventually bend and pay allegiance to the City Lord. The earlier balance and checks present in the city would be gone and the City Lord would become the undisputed despot of this city.
