Chapter 653: Aristocratic Family Skills

No one would not be shocked by this news, because the people present had heard so many reports, and the huge contrast between the two was even more difficult to accept.

These people knew something about the Su family. In this new county city, the Su family might not be the most arrogant family, but it was definitely the kind that would take revenge. With the Su family's usual style of doing things, it would be strange if they did not retaliate with the toughest means when so many low-level warriors in Linshan County City joined forces to make trouble.

However, the current practice of the Su family was not only difficult for the painters from several super families to accept, but also for the leaders who led many warriors to be relentless.

Of course, they could not have been unprepared for this action, or in other words, without any support, how could they dare to challenge these super families in Linshan County City.

Putting aside the combined strength of the shops of these families in the city, the troops stationed outside the county city by each family were a terrifying force. These warriors are not only numerous, but also too low in cultivation. Even if their overall strength is raised by one level, they probably don't have the capital to compete with these super families.

Under such an absolute power gap, it is probably very easy to understand what other families do. However, if such a thing is regarded as a simple outbreak of resentment among warriors for too long, then such a treatment is understandable.

Since the strength is far superior to the opponent, just use force to subdue it directly. Why bother to argue with the opponent in a peaceful manner? Isn't this damaging the face of the super family?

It is for this reason that the managers of the training grounds of these super families dare to carry out their exploitation so fearlessly.

However, sometimes there are exceptions. This incident was indeed an accident. But this accident gave the person behind the scenes an opportunity. This opportunity seems to have appeared by chance, but it is also in line with the plan of the person behind the scenes. He is waiting for such an accident.

Of course, no one really knows what is hidden behind such an incident, but naturally there are people with a keen sense of smell who will make adjustments immediately after discovering the problem. The original person in charge of the Su family walked into this conspiracy without any accident, but Su Lan came here by chance.

Su Lan, the commander of the Su family, is an old monster with hundreds of years of practice experience. He has experienced all kinds of battles for the Su family in his life. He has seen too many conspiracies and tricks in his life experience, and he certainly won't naively think that such things are purely coincidental.

He sensitively smelled the smell of conspiracy, so after hearing the cause and subsequent development of the incident, he decisively issued an order for the family to keep their troops on hold and only send people to negotiate with the other party.

All these measures are waiting, waiting to see the subsequent development of the matter. His wait-and-see soon paid off. As Su Lan expected, other families immediately used force to solve the current problem. However, the result of this kind of force suppression ended in a lose-lose situation.

Although this result was beyond his expectations, it also proved that his worries were not redundant. After continuously collecting intelligence, Su Lan decisively issued orders, not only to peacefully resolve the current problem, but also to try to meet the other party's demands.

So this is why the painter's inquiries came back with the news that the three training grounds belonging to the Su family gave extremely "generous" compensation conditions. Not only that, the person who reported also mentioned a situation, that is, the person in charge of the training ground of the Su family was directly captured by Su Lan and sent back to the family to wait for judgment.

Although he did not punish him on the spot, doing so would damage the face of the Su family after all. However, if he was sent back to the family, even if there was no other punishment, this would be the heaviest punishment for the person in charge. If he lost the management authority of the training ground in Linshan County, his status in the Su family would also plummet.

When he was here, he acted arrogantly. Although he had a good relationship with a limited number of family members, he also offended many new generation disciples of the Su family invisibly. How such a person will be treated in the future, you can guess about 70% by thinking about it.

Therefore, the actions of the Su family have made those troublemakers, or the people behind the troublemakers, lose the excuse to continue.

Zuo Feng and the painter, the seventh son, are not confused people. After listening to the report of the Su family, they also saw the hidden meaning behind the actions of the Su family.

The young painter's face was as heavy as water at this time, and he was no longer as calm as before. He looked at Zuo Feng several times intentionally or unintentionally. The actions of the Su family forced him to connect the young man's suggestion just now.

Whether the young man's suggestion was just an unintentional suggestion, or he really had some plans, the young painter couldn't tell now. However, if the young man really had any intentions, then he seemed to have helped himself unintentionally by doing this, but if there was another meaning, then would his decision have any impact on the family.

Zuo Feng didn't seem to see the young man's eyes. He could understand the other party's concerns to some extent, but he himself didn't have too many ideas, so he was calm in his heart.

The rough man surnamed Li opposite him had a strange look on his face. Sometimes he looked gloomy and seemed to be thinking about something, and sometimes he showed a hint of a smile. After hearing this, most of the other warriors seemed to be beaming with joy on the surface. Only a few of them had blank expressions on their faces without any expression.

Zuo Feng's eyes swept across the crowd, and he caught the expressions of those expressionless people at a glance. But Zuo Feng's eyes did not linger on these people for long, but when he lowered his head and meditated, the light in his eyes flickered slightly, and he revealed a meaningful smile.

Zuo Feng didn't pay too much attention before. After all, the warriors in front of him were so crowded inside and outside the hall that it was almost impossible to distinguish them at a glance. But now that the news of the Su family's actions came back, the expressions of these people changed as if a big stone was thrown into the calm lake, and all the sand in it was stirred up.

What Zuo Feng saw at this moment was exactly what was hidden under the water, and it was also a problem that he had not noticed before.

When he swept past, most of the people who were looking happy and clapping their hands to each other were somewhat low-level in cultivation. Most of them were in the early stages of bone refining, and there were even warriors in the late stages of physical strengthening. But those with gloomy faces and no expressions, although they only account for a minority, most of these people's cultivation levels are in the late stage of bone refining, and some even hide their cultivation levels. Zuo Feng can generally tell that they are in the muscle tempering stage. The above warriors are among them.

Because it was a purposeful observation, these subtle changes were also discovered. Zuo Feng also suddenly understood how such a warrior could cause such destruction in the training grounds of various aristocratic families. I am afraid that the people who really caused the destruction were the expressionless people in front of him.

Although Zuo Feng does not understand the situation here as well as the young painter, based on his current discoveries, he has understood that there should be an undercurrent behind these seemingly simple large groups of warriors.

At this time, the young painter no longer paid attention to Zuo Feng, let alone continued the topic of asking Zuo Feng. The curiosity about Zuo Feng, a young man, could no longer be compared with the situation in front of him.

The young painter thought for a while, then suddenly smiled, politely clasped his fists towards the rough man opposite and saluted again, and then slowly spoke.

"What happened today is indeed that we, the painter, were at fault. As for the request of Master Li, I can make the final decision here to grant all the requirements. The warriors who just practiced, regardless of whether there are any injured people, will also receive compensation."

After a short pause, he continued: "As for what happened in the past, I am indeed not very clear about it, but we painters will definitely investigate this matter to the end and will never tolerate it."

After hearing this, the expression on the rough man's face changed slightly, and some warriors wanted to speak out. The young painter seemed to have expected this to happen. He stretched out his hand and made a calm gesture for everyone, and then continued.

"But no matter what happened today, everyone came here. I think they are all people who often visit our painter's practice ground. These years are considered to be support for our painter's practice ground. I think it is still too early to say anything about compensation. But how can we come up with the amount that Brother Li just said, which is our artist’s way of thanking you for supporting us over the years.”

Everyone thought that the young man had finished speaking at this time, and most of their expressions softened. But suddenly a warrior said in the crowd, "What about the painting manager? We have to ask for an explanation today."

This person spoke, and Zuo Feng raised his head intentionally or unintentionally. He noticed that the person speaking was the gloomy-looking person he had noticed before. It seems that the purpose of these people coming here is to take advantage of the troubled waters in the practice field, and at the same time try to make the matter as big as possible.

There was a trace of ridicule on the face of the young painter, but he spoke again: "This brother is really too impatient. I am about to tell you about the painting manager. I just said that we will definitely investigate what happened in the past. But what happened today was indeed his fault, and he should give everyone an explanation."

At this time, all the warriors on the opposite side had no objections. Although the person who spoke before was somewhat reluctant, he really couldn't find a place to start with what the other person said.

Now Zuo Feng finally saw the super family's methods. They were able to settle things in a few words without losing the family's face. Such skill is definitely not something a mountain boy like him can possess.
