Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1348: Watching and Choosing

At this moment.

It's not just Yang Rui and the others watching. The three of them, equivalent to representing three major families in Sea City, have long discarded the invitation Li Feng sent to their main home into the trash.

Who do you think you are, Li Feng?

Sending invitations to our family.

I estimate the invitation never reached the hands of the heads of the three families; it couldn't even pass the threshold.

In another suite.

The several major families of Huacheng that received the invitation were sitting together.

"Old Master Wei."

The middle-aged man who opened the door looked at the elder outside; naturally, he was not unfamiliar. After all, they were all local families of Huacheng, with close ties.

The Wei Family was previously just a second-tier family in Huacheng, far from first-tier status. But since Sihai's collapse, the Wei Family's daughter clung to Li Feng, and the Wei Family seemed to be thriving.

Originally, they were all on the same level, but now the Wei Family surpassed them, possibly becoming one of the four major families in Huacheng.

Yes, the four major families here are considered first-tier families.

"Well, let me say a few words."

Guided by Wei Lan, Wei Zhongze walked into the room, despite his old age, his eyes sharp like a hawk's.

"Old Wei."

"Old Wei."

Those calling him "Old Master Wei" are relatively younger, yet already in their forties or fifties, managing their family, while those calling him "Old Wei" are elders over sixty, not much younger than Wei Zhongze, but of comparable standing.

With similar family backgrounds, they naturally did not wish to concede.

"So everyone is here."

Wei Zhongze knowingly said, "Then I'll get straight to the point."

"I understand everyone's thoughts well, and we all have mutual clarity; we all want to wait and see."

"But as the saying goes, being indecisive ultimately results in losing everything."

"Wang Qian sends invitations to us just to support Feng Shao's reputation; it shows Feng Shao considers us as insiders."

"Adding value in easy times is common, but help in adversity is truly precious."

"I've said my piece."

"Let's go."

Wei Zhongze turned around, supported by Wei Lan, directly left the room.

"Old Wei said it lightly, but this time Li Feng offended the three major first-tier families: Yang, Xu, and Wei."

"Moreover, these three families are backed by three major chambers of commerce."

"The Wei Family, though not in Huacheng, is nearby as a director in An Chamber of Commerce. The Xu Family is the president of the Yi Chamber of Commerce, while the Yang Family has deep ties in Yue City Chamber of Commerce."

"These three families can influence decisions in the three major chambers of commerce. Even if we are just second-tier families, facing the background of the three chambers of commerce, we would lay low."

"This time, we've indeed been terribly wronged by Wang Qian."

The elder was Liu, the head of the Liu Family in Huacheng.

"Yes, though people say that, the name Hidden Dragon has penetrated deep into people's hearts in Huacheng over the years. Back in the days, one of the four major families in Huacheng was toppled by them."

"Last year, Qi Family from the Sihai Group had the chance to take the position and become the new fourth major family in Huacheng, but what happened?"

"Overnight, Sihai collapsed, the Qi Family was eradicated, becoming history."

One of the Sect Leaders nearby was somewhat apprehensive; after all, the name and reputation of Li Feng in Huacheng are unignorable.

"Hm, folks, you must also consider whether the fall of Qi Family was entirely Li Feng's doing?"

"When the wall collapses, everyone pushes; Qi Family from the Sihai was always domineering, having a poor reputation in Huacheng, and complex backgrounds. Their main business, real estate, had substantial debts."

"Thinking about it, Qi Family's downfall, though led by Li Feng, was also due to us, even if those three old first-tier families had no intention of accepting Qi Family, secretly stirring the pot."

"With these layers of efforts, Sihai couldn't last through the New Year and crumbled, yet Li Feng took the biggest slice of the cake, leaving us scraps while expecting gratitude?"

In the distribution of benefits, naturally, it couldn't be all-inclusive. For example, the Wei Family received substantial advantages, not only claimed a share, but Wei Lan became the president of Qingcheng Group.

Li Feng played the role of the boss who let Qingcheng be managed by the Wei Family, naturally making people assume Li Feng was backing up Wei Family, enabling their rise from second-tier family status, a crucial aspect.

The family speaking these words had not received substantial benefits last time, naturally harboring some resentment.

Without the targeting by the three major first-tier families, he naturally wouldn't vocalize these opinions; even with minimal benefits, he dared not offend Li Feng.

Several people present glanced at the Wu Family Sect Leader speaking, agreeing with his blunt yet true statements.

Although Li Feng gave them benefits, they owed him nothing, especially concerning their family's prosperity and decline. Naturally, they couldn't act impulsively.

Li Feng may be formidable in his territory in Huacheng, but rising to a higher level.

Like tonight's gala, how many would attend?

"Wait a bit longer, there's still time before it begins."

Someone expressed their impatience, finding this choice truly agonizing, knowing Li Feng is not one to be trifled with.

"Grandpa, what about them?"

"Don't worry about them, I'm only responsible for the Wei Family. What we said earlier was merely a reminder, we've been friends for many years; this is considered fulfilling my duty."

Wei Zhongze replied.

Wei Lan nodded, but still bit her lip, "But Grandpa, this seems like we're standing with our position beforehand."

Wei Zhongze turned to Wei Lan: "What's wrong, do you have second thoughts?"

Wei Lan quickly shook her head: "If it were just me, I wouldn't hesitate to stand behind him, but Grandpa represents the Wei Family."

"Recently, Huacheng is in turmoil, even Qingcheng Group hasn't been spared from harassment, that Yang Rui even…!"

Wei Lan recalled Yang Rui boldly approaching her, the blatant look in his eyes making her feel nauseous.

"I know, that's why I chose a side."

"This is the opportunity for the Wei Family to ascend as one of Huacheng's four major families."

"I'm already old; I can't wait for a second chance, but your father…!" Wei Zhongze sighed and shook his head.

From the hotel to Emperor Residence, it's merely two blocks.

Wei Lan helped Wei Zhongze off the car and handed over the invitation to the door host.

"Esteemed guest, please keep your invitation, please come inside." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

The host checked the invitation and made way for them.

Wei Zhongze smiled, moving forward, leaning on his cane guided by Wei Lan, though before they could enter, a premium business car stopped in front of Emperor Residence.

The host eagerly opened the door, and a sharp middle-aged man stepped out, followed by a lady companion in an evening gown.

"Please show your invitation, sir."

"Ouyang Jingming, President of Fruit East Continent District."

Wei Zhongze recognized the visitor instantly, as the person was no small figure.

"Hm, is it him?"

Wei Lan was also surprised; Fruit is a Northern Federation Company with assets over a trillion Federation Coins, also a top-selling phone brand worldwide, and Fruit's East Continent District President surely belongs to Fruit's core management.

Moreover, Ouyang Jingming is backed by the Ouyang Family, a first-tier family within the Yan Country circle in Northern Federation.
