The Martial Family of Nandu came looking for trouble with great fury, and the officials of Da Peng City had almost instantly been informed of the whole story.
Governor Zhou Weiren of the City Hall personally intervened to stop the matter.
"The death of the Martial Family's member on the battlefield has had a very negative impact. As Elder Jiang is a symbolic figure of our Da Peng City, we will naturally go all out to mediate. However, a person has died in the end... and the situation shouldn't have become so awkward," he said.
The City Hall's stance was clear, they didn't want to offend anyone and sought to leverage the death to give the Jiang family a slight knock.
But it probably surprised everyone when Jiang Xinrun, who was leading the team this time, said quite directly, "Only the Martial Family knows why their person died. If there's evidence that it was someone from our Jiang family, by all means, make the arrest.
