The rest of the night went by quietly.
The grandmasters from the Tan family had gone to Donghai, but there was no news after that.
All those watching the Tan family and Donghai had waited an entire night for news, but nothing came back to them.
It was as if Tan Xing had brought the other eight for a walk and returned to the northern mountains without confronting anybody in Donghai at all.
This really stunned the powerful families in the north.
They couldn't believe it.
How could this be?
The Tan family had gone out with great fanfare. Nine grandmasters had moved out together, so it was like they had thrown a huge bomb into the lake, but it didn't even cause a ripple.
It had crashed into the lake hard, but floated up and was taken out of the water again.
"I won't see anyone!" Tan Xing was practically yelling. "I don't want to see anybody!"
"Whoever tries to ask about Donghai will not get any response from the Tan family!"
He didn't expect so many people to come looking for news first thing the next morning. Some came formally and some came in secret, but they all wanted to know about Donghai and they wanted to know what happened between the Tan family and Donghai.
But were they really concerned about the Tan family?
Bullshit!
Tan Xing was beginning to really believe what Jiang Ning said.
The Tan family was probably already rotten to the core!
Out of the eight bloodlines, how many were really thinking about the reputation of the Tan family?
Possibly none!
He was so furious.
"News is circulating out there that the Tan family is afraid of Donghai and can't even get justice for ourselves!"
"Master Tan, let us go! We don't care if we live or die, but we must not let others look down on the Tan family!"
"We want to fight!"
Representatives from all eight bloodlines were shouting loudly outside the ancestral hall.
"Go home NOW! Whoever dares to say another word will be thrown out of this family!" Tan Xing didn't mince his words.
His expression had darkened and his angry shouts scared everyone into leaving.
But the people coming to get news never stopped. The powerful families of the north kept trying to use all sorts of channels to get news.
