Chapter 800 Noble Family Meeting!
Moreover, Wang Wenshan is also the chairman of the North Capital Martial Arts Association.
“Today we are discussing matters related to Dao Kong and the Half-Spirit Clan,” Wang Wenshan said slowly. “Next, everyone can raise their hand to express their views.”
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately raised their hand.
Wang Wenshan looked at that person and smiled, “Brother Dong, what would you like to say?”
“I believe we shouldn’t jump to conclusions… in other words, we need to confirm that the Half-Spirit Clan actually exists before discussing anything else,” Dong Zheng replied.
He came from a middle-tier family, the Dong family, and was a direct descendant of the third generation.
“What’s there to confirm? What happened to the Wei family yesterday is already a fact. If you don’t believe it, you can go see the Wei family mansion,” someone frowned and objected.
“I know what happened to the Wei family is a fact. I’m just questioning the identity of the person who did this to the Wei family,” Dong Zheng said calmly. “I think none of us here had heard of the Half-Spirit Clan or the so-called Dao Kong before, right? These two names are quite unfamiliar to us.”
“Brother Dong, you can share your thoughts,” Wang Wenshan said.
“It’s simple. I’m just wondering… could it be that someone attacked the Wei family and then, to avoid responsibility, used some secret technique to change their appearance and fabricated a non-existent identity?” Dong Zheng said.
Hearing this, Fang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly.
It seems the Half-Spirit Clan’s influence has extended not only within the Martial Arts Association but also into the martial arts families.
Sitting nearby, Wang Wenshan’s eyes also flashed with an unusual light.
“How is that possible… so many people were present yesterday and witnessed the power of that Dao Kong. Are you suggesting everyone was deceived?” someone questioned.
“It’s a possibility,” Dong Zheng replied. “There are secret techniques that cannot be seen through.”
“I think you’re overthinking it. In my view, what happened is simply the truth, without all these complications,” that person said.
“I’m just expressing my opinion, not claiming it as fact,” Dong Zheng smiled.
“I think what Dong Zheng says makes sense.”
“I agree. We should first investigate whether Dao Kong and the Half-Spirit Clan truly exist.”
“Yes, we should clarify this…”
Dong Zheng’s perspective gained support from many people.
“But how do we investigate this?” someone asked.
“I heard that before taking action yesterday, the so-called Dao Kong was actually the newly appointed vice chairman of the Martial Arts Association, Fang Chengtian,” Dong Zheng said. “We should first find Fang Chengtian and question him…”
“I’ve already brought him here,” Wang Wenshan said.
After saying this, Wang Wenshan glanced at Fang Yu.
Fang Yu stood up and said, “I am Fang Chengtian.”
Seeing the wounds on Fang Yu’s face and his poor condition, the representatives of the various families present all showed a glint of understanding in their eyes.
“So you’re Fang Chengtian…” Dong Zheng looked at Fang Yu, a flash of ruthlessness briefly appearing in his eyes.
This flash of ruthlessness was caught by Fang Yu.
Indeed, another member of the Half-Spirit Clan.
“I want to ask you, what exactly happened yesterday?” Dong Zheng stared into Fang Yu’s eyes and asked solemnly.
Fang Yu glanced at Wang Wenshan.
“Vice Chairman Fang, just repeat what you told us this morning. Of course, if you could provide more details, that would be even better,” Wang Wenshan said.
“Alright,” Fang Yu nodded.
“Yesterday morning, my assistant Zheng Ze and I got into the Martial Arts Association’s special vehicle with two attendants and headed to the Wei family. Then we were ambushed…” Fang Yu said.
“Ambushed? At what specific time? At which location? What was the surrounding situation like?” Dong Zheng asked three questions in succession.
Fang Yu glanced at Dong Zheng, pretending to recall, and answered, “We were ambushed about half an hour into the journey. As for the location and surrounding environment, I’m not clear because I was looking down at my phone at the time.”
Dong Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “Who ambushed you? Do you remember their physical characteristics clearly?”
“Several men in black. They appeared suddenly, forced our car to stop, and then Zheng Ze and I realized the danger and tried to act. But in an instant, we were dragged out of the car, and then my head was hit by something, and I passed out. When I woke up, it was already early morning today,” Fang Yu said.
“What about the physical characteristics of the men in black?” Dong Zheng asked.
“They had their faces covered. I don’t remember clearly,” Fang Yu said.
Dong Zheng took a deep breath and said in an unfriendly tone, “How is it that you can’t remember so many things?”
“Brother Dong, Vice Chairman Fang was ambushed, so it’s quite normal that he doesn’t have a clear impression of the environment and various details at that time,” Wang Wenshan said from the side.
“I just want to clarify the entire situation, I don’t mean to target him,” Dong Zheng seemed to realize his emotions were inappropriate, and his expression softened considerably.
“Vice Chairman Fang, thank you for answering the questions. Please sit down,” Wang Wenshan said.
Fang Yu sat down and smiled slightly at Dong Zheng.
Dong Zheng’s expression froze, then his face turned ashen.
As a member of the Half-Spirit Clan, he had learned the truth about the whole incident after it happened yesterday.
Therefore, he had volunteered to represent the Dong family at today’s family meeting, intending to find a way to redirect everyone’s attention.
But he hadn’t expected that Fang Chengtian would also be here!
His questions had no effect on Fang Chengtian, who didn’t reveal any flaws!
What’s worse, Wang Wenshan of the Wang family seemed to be on Fang Chengtian’s side!
This meant his plan for today was basically ruined.
After Fang Yu sat down, Dong Zheng’s questioning was essentially ignored.
The family representatives continued to discuss matters related to the Half-Spirit Clan and Dao Kong.
“In my opinion, our major families should unite, send out all our elites, and raid the Half-Spirit Clan’s lair!”
“I think so too. Should we wait for Dao Kong to launch a second sneak attack? That’s too passive! We should take the initiative! Don’t give him a chance to strike again!”
“I agree with this approach. The Martial Arts Tournament will begin soon, and we need to resolve this matter quickly…”
Fang Yu listened to their discussions with a faint smile on his face.
Meanwhile, Dong Zheng’s face grew increasingly gloomy.
He didn’t know what to do now.
Overnight, the Half-Spirit Clan, which had never been exposed to the public before, suddenly became a target of public hatred!
If this continues, various plans of the Half-Spirit Clan would be difficult to implement!
“It’s been so long since this happened, and apart from revealing the truth, the superiors haven’t given any instructions… what’s going on? There should be a solution!” Dong Zheng’s thoughts became increasingly chaotic.
He had been a member of the Half-Spirit Clan for three years.
During these three years, he had received many benefits, and his cultivation had advanced rapidly.
From that time on, he was determined to follow the Half-Spirit Clan and the instructions of Immortal Dao Kong, all the way to the era of the Great Revival!
Immortal Dao Kong had promised that when that time came, he would grant each member of the clan a great opportunity!
For this great opportunity, Dong Zheng had been very obedient these three years, completing all the tasks assigned to him.
He had been envisioning the arrival of the Great Revival era.
He wondered how much benefit his great opportunity would bring him.
But unexpectedly, before Immortal Dao Kong’s Great Revival era arrived, the Half-Spirit Clan had been thrust into the spotlight.
Dong Zheng knew very well that the situation was already extremely critical.
If the superiors didn’t respond soon, things would spiral out of control!
“The Half-Spirit Clan and Dao Kong don’t exist at all! The real culprit behind yesterday’s incident is Fang Chengtian himself!”
Just as Dong Zheng’s mood was becoming increasingly heavy, a loud, resentful voice suddenly came from behind!
