“Yes.”
Cheng Wanshan agreed. At this point, this was the only arrangement he could make. He just hoped that the woman would not dare to come to his house. Otherwise, this would inevitably be a life-and-death battle.
The fear within the Cheng family made all the descendants of the Cheng family feel something was wrong, especially after batches of young people were secretly sent away.
To the outside world, the people who were originally preparing to attend the Cheng family's birthday banquet were surprised to learn that the birthday banquet was cancelled. People from various families and forces were keenly aware of the unusual atmosphere.
After all, the invitations to the Cheng family's birthday party had been sent out a long time ago, but now it has been cancelled, and the reason has not been detailed yet. If you say there is nothing unusual here, even a three-year-old child probably won't believe it.
Someone secretly inquired and found out that the Cheng family had lost four supreme masters for some unknown reason. The younger generation of the Cheng family had been secretly transferred and sent away. The Cheng family had provoked some powerful people this time. They even secretly invited some friendly masters to come to the Cheng family to take charge. The whole family was preparing for the battle, so naturally they had no intention of holding a birthday banquet.
The Cheng family lived in this tense and worried atmosphere, not knowing when the disaster would come to their family. They were on guard almost every day and did not dare to relax for a moment. They even sent people to secretly watch the city gate and return to report immediately if they spotted any outsiders.
A few days later, Fengjiu brought Mi'er and three children to Longnan.
On this day, after entering the city, the few of them found an inn to rest. The Cheng family guard dressed as a beggar who was squatting at the city gate was so frightened when he saw Feng Jiu that he almost buried his head and didn't dare to even look at her for another second.
After seeing them enter the inn, he quickly ran towards the Cheng family.
"Master, Master!"
Cheng Wanshan, who was discussing matters with the old man and others in the hall, saw the guard dressed as a beggar running in in a panic. He shouted with a gloomy face: "How can you be so flustered! What's the matter? If you have something to say, please say it quickly!"
Seeing that the old ancestor and others were all in the hall, the guard dressed as a beggar suppressed his panic, swallowed his saliva, and said: "Master, it's, it's that woman, that woman is here..."
"You said that woman is here?"
The ancestor in the main seat sat up immediately. No one noticed that his body trembled at that moment. He steadied his voice and stared at the guard dressed as a beggar. He asked anxiously, "How many of them came? Where are they now? Are they coming to our Cheng family?"
"It's that woman. I saw it clearly. She is the woman in blue who asked me and others to bring back a message." The guard shook her hand and felt cold sweat on his hands and heart.
He took a deep breath and continued, "There are five of them in total. In addition to the woman in green, there is a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, a boy about eleven or twelve years old, and two younger children."
Hearing this, the Cheng family looked at each other in bewilderment. Especially the Cheng family ancestor, who frowned and asked, "Are you sure? That woman didn't bring any other helpers, but a young girl and three children? No one else?"
