After a fierce argument and struggle between the two families, they finally decided that the first wave of the iron blood alliance members would stay temporarily at the Jin Family. When the next wave of another major sect arrives, the Wu Family would be responsible for their reception.
For both families, this was undoubtedly a windfall. Given their status, they were far from being able to associate with major sects. Even if they racked their brains to send their offspring into certain sects, they wouldn’t even get a foot in the door.
And this was just a minor sect.
As for entering a super sect like the iron blood alliance, all they could do was look up in admiration. The idea of being accepted was something they wouldn’t dare to even dream about… now they would actually be living in their home?
Wasn’t this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
No matter how notorious the iron blood alliance was in the past, as long as they were living in my house, it meant they would have the advantage.
However, the Jin Family quickly regretted their decision.
The iron blood alliance was truly not a group of good people.
Absolutely not!
The so-called notorious reputation was not just talk; seeing it in person was even more shocking than hearing about it!
On the very first day of their stay, the iron blood alliance members showed no courtesy and took over the Jin Family. They directly pushed everyone from the Jin Family into a small courtyard: “Get lost! Do we need you to serve us? Do you even deserve it? Stay far away, don’t irritate us!”
This was like a bird occupying a nest!
Not only that, but everyone in the Jin Family was treated as mere servants. They were often beaten and scolded, with no regard for them as guests.
Furthermore, the women of the Jin Family were summoned at will, humiliated openly, and those who dared to resist or disobey were met with death. The Jin Family suddenly realized that their family seemed to have fallen into the hands of devils, and these devils were completely beyond their ability to resist. Any hint of resistance would lead to certain death.
This made the Jin Family, who were eager to climb the social ladder, rue their decision.
But it was already too late.
In this world, there was medicine for everything, except regret medicine!

“Not all super sects maintain a facade of generosity and civility. The iron blood alliance is one of the few rogues among super sects,” Duan Cangkong said lightly. “They have always been known for their treachery and plunder, committing every conceivable evil. Young master, did you suggest they stay to take advantage of their nature to unify Purple Twilight City?”
Chu Yang smiled faintly and said, “If there are irritating people, it’s better to have fewer of them.”
“If I can achieve my goals without having to get my hands dirty, that would be even better.”
Duan Cangkong laughed heartily, “Are you wanting to drive a tiger to swallow a wolf?”
Chu Yang scoffed, “A mere Jin Family considered a wolf? They don’t even resemble one! It’s just inconvenient to remove them directly for now; cooperating with others for mutual benefit is a win-win!”
Duan Cangkong nodded, “Using someone else’s knife to kill, watching the fire from the other side is indeed a clever strategy. The Jin Family has committed heinous crimes in Purple Twilight City over the years, and they truly deserve to face retribution… However, if another major sect comes and the Wu Family is in charge of receiving them, then it would indeed be an advantage.”
Chu Yang smiled oddly, glancing sideways at Duan Cangkong, “Old Duan, are you testing me?”
Duan Cangkong laughed heartily.
“Even smaller sects wouldn’t stoop to the disgrace of borrowing a place to stay; let alone major sects or powerful factions?” Chu Yang smiled. “The iron blood alliance’s stay and their actions being so unrestrained is undoubtedly as usual, but deep down, it implies another meaning, announcing the arrival of the iron blood alliance; as for other major sects… why would they find it so boring?”
