CHAPTER 933 IMPORTANT DECISION
The Pang family was completely destroyed in one night.
This was the family that had consolidated the most power out of the four supremely powerful families.
But it was gone in just one night.
Nobody even knew how they had vanished or why they did.
It seemed like just yesterday when the Young Master of the family, Pang Bo, had organized a major event that was well attended by all the powerful families.
But in the blink of an eye, the Pang family was no more.
The news went out first thing in the morning and completely shocked the north.
The tremendous change in the north had made many powerful families fearful and the death of the head of the Long family was like a huge hammer striking their hearts already.
They were feeling more and more wary and had to be more cautious than ever.
And this time, the Pang family had vanished overnight. All the powerful families were shuddering.
Those who had been secretly dabbling in a lot of evil deeds and had earned a lot of money unethically were even more terrified. Many of them went ahead to turn themselves in and were more willing to suffer a severe punishment for their crimes than to go to bed one night and never wake up again.
If a powerful family like the Pang family had perished overnight despite lying low and never offending anyone else, then they were definitely doomed.
The even more afraid when they saw that the remaining three supremely powerful families seemed to have joined forces.
What were they afraid of?
Did they decide to join hands because they were afraid that they would also end up like the Pang family?
That was really too frightening.
Nobody dared to do anything rash in the north for the time being. They seemed to have gone into a strange mode and were extremely careful in everything they did. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
And the three supremely powerful families were also clear on what sort of behavior the north should have now.
At the Long house.
"Send the message out that the Long family will now focus on just surviving and we're not after development, so shrink all our businesses." Long Ling'er was now the head of the Long family and didn't tolerate any protests. "I will not allow any of the Long family businesses to be engaged in any sort of illegal activity. If I catch anyone doing such a thing, I will make sure that all involved will be punished severely!"
She turned to look at Long Fei and he nodded. "You can make the call. I'll support you."
"Also, with regard to Lin Group setting foot in the north." Long Ling'er took a deep breath. "The Long family will give them our full support!"
"Yes, Miss Long!" replied all the important members of the Long family in unison.
At the same time, the Xue family was making similar arrangements.
Xue Fangyang didn't hesitate at all. He didn't dare to. He called all the important members of his family together first thing in the morning.
"From today onwards, the Xue family and the Jiang family are allies," he declared loudly. "We will move together as one. So if the Jiang family does well, so will we. If they suffer, we will too. Understand?"
"Yes, Master Xue!"
"Also, regarding Lin Group - all major businesses under the Xue family will fully support them. Do not make any mistake!"
Xue Fangyang looked around at them and narrowed his eyes slightly.
After he had confirmed who Jiang Ning was and had witnessed Jiang Ning's prowess for himself, he was very sure that if someone had to be king over the north, that person had to be Jiang Ning!
But Jiang Ning wasn't interested in the north at all.
He gave up being in a position of absolute power even though he could have taken it easily. So what was the north to him?
Xue Fangyang knew that it would be difficult to become good friends with Jiang Ning because they were at vastly different levels and there was no basis for them to become friends.
But if he could maintain a good relationship with the Jiang family, that would guarantee that the Xue family would spend the next few decades without any need to worry.
Two supremely powerful families had made the most important decision as quickly as possible.
As for the Jiang family, there wasn't much left to say.
Jiang Daoran had a good night's rest and by the time he woke up, Xue Ning had already made breakfast for him.
