Chapter 421 - 417: Ambush
The Outer City District of Wind and Rain City housed a large population. Although there was a mix of good and bad people, refugees fleeing from the outside often first came into contact with the Outer City District.
In this place, the local powerhouses could easily acquire some valuable items from these outsiders and thus make a fortune.
However, although the rules and regulations of the Outer City District were not as comprehensive as those of the Inner City, becoming a powerhouse in the Outer City District was still no easy task. At minimum, it required the backing of a Top Martial Saint and someone of the Devas Level.
It was like certain families that dominated a county; they had to have connections inside the city. Otherwise, when the higher-ups took action, they would be the first to bear the brunt.
The Luo Family, which relied on the Zhang Family, was one of these powerful clans in the Outer City District.
Since land outside the city was not as scarce as within, the Luo Family had enclosed three to four square kilometers to establish a fortress-like mansion. Around the mansion were the residences of Protectors and collateral family members, while the most central part was surrounded by a "wall" over six meters tall.
Gu Jinlai took Zhou Ming to the place where he had buried the evidence of the Luo Family colluding with the Sky Silver Tower and masquerading as the Primordial Spirit Monarch’s close friend to destroy the Zhou Family. After obtaining the evidence, they quickly arrived at the Luo Family Mansion.
No sooner had he and Zhou Ming appeared on the periphery of the Luo Family Mansion than they were discovered.
But with his exceptional movement technique, before those people could even cry out in alarm, Gu Jinlai had already breached the inner part of the Luo Family Mansion.
Upon reaching the surrounding wall, he shouted loudly, "I have received a report from the Zhou Family. The Luo Family destroyed the Zhou Family under a trumped-up pretext. Now, all the principal members of the Luo Family, come out and cooperate with my investigation. Should you dare to resist, don’t blame me for being merciless."
