Chapter 78 The forces of Medicine City admit defeat, and the Li family bows their heads.
Refuse to enter the northern city.
"So, have the remaining three major families in Medicine City given in yet?"
Qin Wu inquired.
"No, but they sent a message to the capital, and we intercepted it. It was addressed to Consort De and Prince Xian."
Liu Feng reported.
"Consort De and Prince Xian? It seems that's their source of confidence! However, they believe that Consort De and Prince Xian can protect them, so they issue an order to exterminate the Liu family."
Qin Wu sneered.
Since you're so ungrateful, you might as well just die.
"Yes."
Liu Feng accepted the order and left.
Soon.
Another major event has occurred in the medicine city.
The Liu family, one of the three remaining of the four major families in Medicine City, was wiped out.
Moreover, the situation was exactly the same as that of the Yang family; the entire clan was wiped out without anyone noticing.
Even the Liu family's assets were looted.
This news shocked the entire medicine city.
Not long after the Yang family was wiped out, the Liu family has once again followed in the same footsteps as the Yang family.
This is no small matter.
This caused the officials in Yaocheng a great deal of worry.
They haven't found any clues about the Yang family's affairs yet, and now the Liu family is in trouble too.
They're probably going to be held accountable by their superiors.
The heads of the Li and Wu families gathered together once again.
"Master Wu, we're in big trouble now. First the Yang family, then the Liu family. It seems we've been targeted by some force."
Li Wenbai's brows furrowed.
This incident has exceeded their expectations and control.
At first, people thought that the Yang family had offended some powerful force and had been wiped out.
But now it seems that's not the case; it's likely that someone is targeting the four major families.
Moreover, this force is ruthless and leaves no room for maneuver.
"Patriarch Li, is there someone you suspect?"
Wu De inquired.
He also sensed that something was very wrong.
I just can't figure out what kind of force is so powerful.
There aren't many people who can do that these days.
"Hmm, this time we've probably offended someone we really shouldn't have."
Li Wenbai said coldly.
He had been thinking about the Yang family during this time.
He had been clueless until the Liu family was destroyed, when he had a bold guess.
The one who made this move was probably the Divine Martial King they had offended some time ago.
As for why he made this guess, it was because he had found a lot of information about the Divine Martial King.
The Divine Martial King is absolutely capable of doing something like this.
"Big trouble? What happened? Who did we offend?"
Wu De was getting anxious.
Li Wenbai's words told him that they had offended someone together this time, and this person, who could destroy the Liu and Yang families, might also destroy them.
He needs to know who he has offended so that they can prepare in advance.
"The Divine Martial King".
Li Wenbai said, word by word.
His voice still trembled slightly.
Although his expression was calm, his voice could not hide his fear.
He genuinely hadn't expected it, but he was certain that the Divine Martial King wouldn't dare to attack them.
But the result was exactly the opposite. The Divine Martial King actually dared to take action, and with one move, he wiped out the entire clan.
"It's him? How dare he? We have Consort De and Prince Xian behind us!"
Wu De was somewhat incredulous.
He didn't think the Divine Warrior King would dare to do that.
"You don't dare? Take a look at these documents!"
Li Wenbo made no attempt to hide his mocking smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone handed Wu De a file on Qin Wu.
Wu De flipped through the documents, reading them line by line.
The more I looked at him, the more alarmed I became.
He never expected that the Divine Martial King would dare to attack other princes in the imperial court.
They even dared to openly attack the prince.
What he did was something only a madman could do.
Moreover, the methods of killing used by the Divine Martial King are terrifying.
If this was truly the work of the Divine Martial King, they may have truly faced annihilation.
"If...if it really is...the God...the Martial King, what should we do?"
Wu De said, his voice trembling.
He's genuinely scared now.
The Wu family has paid so much to achieve their current status. If it were to be ruined in his hands, how could he face his ancestors?
"What should we do? We should personally escort the medicinal herbs to Prince Shenwu to apologize, and also contact Consort De and Prince Xian to ask them to think of a solution. Otherwise, once Prince Shenwu takes action, we're finished."
Li Wenbai said unwillingly.
He wanted to make money, but he also wanted to live. If he didn't back down now, they might end up like the Liu and Yang families, which was not what he wanted.
Now, their only chance of saving themselves and their families is to do as the Divine Martial King says.
They have no other choice now.
"Are we just going to give in like this? Even a 2% discount would be a huge loss for us!"
Wu De was still somewhat unwilling.
Thinking about the quantity of medicinal herbs given by the Divine Martial King, his heart was bleeding.
"Major bleeding? How does that compare to your life?"
Li Wenbai looked coldly at Wu De.
He knew Wu De was greedy, but he never expected that Wu De would still hesitate at a time like this.
This is truly a case of risking one's life for money!
"Fine, whatever you say. You can decide what to do with your Wu family."
"My Li family will immediately prepare to send medicinal herbs to the Divine Martial King."
After Li Wenbai finished speaking, he got up and left.
Compared to life, he could still tell the difference in importance.
The next day.
Upon arriving at the medicine market, they saw Li Wenbai, the head of the Li family, personally leading a group of people to escort a large quantity of medicinal herbs.
The Li family's affairs quickly attracted the attention of the entire city.
Many pharmaceutical companies are inquiring about what the Li family is planning to do.
Soon, news spread that the Li family had sent medicinal herbs to the Divine Martial King.
This was something Li Wenbo specifically instructed before leaving.
This was also to get the message to the Divine Martial King, so that he would not attack them again.
He certainly didn't want the Divine Martial King to attack their family again while he was transporting the medicinal herbs.
Not long after the Li family set off, all the large and small medicine merchants in the medicine city began to take action.
Their previous blockade of medicinal materials and price gouging against the Zhenbei Army could not be kept secret.
Many people were afraid of offending the Divine Martial King and the Northern Garrison.
However, with the four major families backing them up, they didn't dare to act recklessly in private.
Now that two of the four major families have been wiped out, the head of the Li family even personally delivered medicine.
This clearly shows that the Li family has bowed down.
Now that the Li family has yielded, they cannot withstand the wrath of the Divine Martial King.
All the large and small pharmaceutical merchants in the pharmaceutical city sprang into action.
Large quantities of medicinal herbs are transported to Jubei City every day.
"Your Highness just received news that two days ago, Li Wenbai, the head of the Li family, personally led a group of people to escort a large quantity of medicinal herbs to Jubei City."
"Moreover, all the large and small medicine merchants in the medicine city have taken action."
Liu Feng reported this to Qin Wu.
"Oh? Looks like you're still afraid of death! What about the Wu family?"
Qin Wu sneered.
These people are really shameless. If we don't teach them a lesson, they'll really think they're something special.
"The Wu family? They haven't made any moves, but they are in contact with Consort De and Prince Xian, asking them to protect them."
Liu Feng said.
"Kill them! They don't know when to stop."
Qin Wu snorted coldly.
Ten days later.
Under the protection of the Zhenbei Army, a large quantity of medicinal herbs were sent to Jubei City.
Li Wenbai, the head of the Li family, also personally apologized to Qin Wu.
Qin Wu saw that he was sensible and let him go.
After all, the Li family has really suffered a huge loss this time.
Li Wenbai finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Qin Wu's reply.
You should know that he had already received the news on his way here.
The Wu family has been wiped out.
He had been on tenterhooks these past few days, but now he can finally relax.
Thus, the problem of medicinal materials for the Zhenbei Army was also solved.
