"Zhang family is already struggling to protect themselves, and now they provoke the Alchemy Pavilion. Isn't that seeking death?"
"Mu Xun is in charge and is the head of the Alchemy Pavilion's shop in the market. His status is not ordinary; how could he fabricate evidence?"
"To question the head of the Zhang family is equivalent to questioning the Alchemy Pavilion, which is definitely unacceptable."
The crowd shook their heads and sighed.
It seemed that the head of the Zhang family was already flustered and incoherent.
Under normal circumstances, when encountering such matters, one would definitely speak calmly and resolve conflicts peacefully.
How could he be like this, offending people everywhere?
Feeling the terrifying aura from Mu Xun, Zhang Xi's breath hitched, his face showing bitterness.
He knew very well that the elixirs of the Zhang family came from the Alchemy Pavilion; there was no mistake about it.
But knowing this did not prove anything, as he had no evidence.
Moreover, he did not dare to tear his face with the Alchemy Pavilion.
Just dealing with the Li family was already difficult enough. If they offended the Alchemy Pavilion as well, then there would be no room for maneuvering, and they would have to obediently wait for death.
"Li Tiancheng, how did my Zhang family offend you? Why must you act so ruthlessly?"
Calming himself down, Zhang Xi could only shift his target to Li Tiancheng, as the Li family was the core of the matter.
"Head of the Zhang family, your words confuse me. My Li family is a prominent family in the royal capital; how could we have a conflict with you? To put it bluntly, your Zhang family doesn't even have the qualifications for my Li family to deal with."
With a sneer, Li Tiancheng looked disdainful.
"You—"
Zhang Xi was so furious at Li Tiancheng's words that he almost spat blood.
"Alright, it's getting late. Captain Luo, isn't it time to enforce the law?"
In a calm voice, Qin Fen broke the standoff among several people.
What he wanted to see was the extermination of the Zhang family, not just a few people arguing and shouting here.
"Young Master Qin, don't worry. We will act right away."
Captain Luo bowed and nodded, then waved his hand, shouting sternly: "What are you all waiting for? Quickly demolish the Zhang family's shop!"
Who in the royal capital didn't know the Qin family's reputation? They were the most distinguished nobility in the Great Qi Kingdom.
One could say that getting close to the Qin family was like stepping onto a broad highway with limitless prospects.
Moreover, this time, they had support from powerful forces like the Li family and the Alchemy Pavilion, so Captain Luo had no scruples in his actions.
It was ridiculous; with such powerful backers, even if it were a prominent family shop, it could be taken down easily.
Crash!
A member of the enforcement team had already begun smashing the Zhang family's plaque.
"Who dares to touch my Zhang family's shop?"
Seeing the enforcement team truly taking action, Zhang Xi roared angrily, bringing several Zhang family disciples to stand in front of the enforcement team.
Their eyes were bloodshot, and they were so furious that they looked like they could breathe fire.
However, the surrounding crowd could not help but shake their heads and sigh.
"What is the Zhang family thinking?"
They had offended both the Li family and the Alchemy Pavilion, yet still wanted to resist. It was simply seeking their own demise.
How could a mere Zhang family think they could contend with the enforcement team? Wasn't that asking for death?
"Oh, Head of the Zhang family, do you wish to resist the law? Hehe, you might as well give it a try." Luo Ling couldn't help but sneer.
It was ludicrous; he had seen many scenes as the head of the enforcement team.
"Head of the Zhang family, let me make it clear beforehand: if anyone dares to obstruct the enforcement team, they will be directly imprisoned in the royal capital's jail, facing severe punishment. Move!"
With a hand gesture, the enforcement team behind Luo Ling surged forward again, and it seemed the Zhang family was about to be unable to hold their ground.
