Chapter 1156: Token of Allegiance
Zhang Yuelu arrived with her team at the Wang family estate. The Spirit Guards behind her immediately surrounded the residence.
The Wang family estate occupied a large area, but it could not withstand the sheer number of people Zhang Yuelu brought. With Great Sage Jiang now in charge of the Spirit Guards, there was no shortage of manpower.
At this moment, the Wang estate did not have a true master. Wang Danqing had gone to Lion City. Wang Jiaohe and Wang Jiaoying were attending an emergency council. Only Wang Jiaoyan remained at home because she could no longer show her face in public.
Zhang Yuelu stopped in front of the gate. A Spirit Guard stepped forward and knocked loudly. “Open up! Open the gate!”
The gatekeeper had heard the commotion outside long ago, but he dared not show himself and shrank back indoors.
Wang Jiaoyan was seated in the main hall not far from the gate and could clearly hear the knocking. She instinctively rose to her feet, but slowly sat back down.
She knew that the Nanyang United Trading Company was finished. Those involved were either dead, imprison, or have fled. It was finally her turn.
She had never imagined that the political landscape in Poluo would shift so quickly after Qi Xuansu’s arrival.
The butler stumbled in, pale with fear. “Ma’am, Second Deputy Zhang from the Lingnan Daoist Mansion has arrived.”
The Wang family had committed the grave taboo of switching allegiances.
