Everyone relaxed when they heard Ye Wanwan's words. Gu had always been mysterious to people, and anyone would fear the unknown.
Ye Wanwan soon led everyone to retreat dozen or so kilometers back—the location of the branch that was destroyed by the Yuan family.
The branch here was the Wu family, a family that had pledged allegiance to the Fearless Alliance for seven or eight years already and had decent power in the northern district. However, they had a conflict of interest with the Yuan family, and the Yuan family relied on the fact that they had Asura's backing, thus destroying the Wu family.
The place ahead of them was a ruined courtyard.
The patriarch of the Wu family was about 50 or so years old. The current state of the estate was no match for its previous splendor.
Hundreds of members of the Wu family were either dead or injured, and Patriarch Wu's eldest son died in battle.
