"If we don't seize the chance first, we'll all die!" someone shouted. "The Long family is wiping out everyone who is a threat to them, can't you see?"
"Are you saying that the Chang family is a threat to the Long family?"
"Are you not? Your younger brother must have died at the hands of the Long family because the Chang family is a threat to them!"
"Mr Chang, if you don't retaliate now, then the Long family might attack you directly! It's an emergency situation now!"
"That's right! Mr Chang, please think carefully about this!”
All of them surrounded Chang Zaiyuan.
Among all the first tier families, the Chang family was one of the most powerful ones. They weren't too far off from the supremely powerful families.
Even though the craziest among them, Chang Zaishan, was dead, his death was the reason why the Chang family would be willing to fight alongside them to defeat the Long family.
"The Long family really doesn't know how to pander to others," Chang Zaiyuan scoffed. "Since all of you would like me to lead the way, then I will accept this role."
"Thank you so much, Mr Chang!"
"Mr Chang has made a marvellous decision!"
"Mr Chang, to us, your family is the one who is most eligible to become a supremely powerful family!"
The expression on Chang Zaiyuan's face didn't change at all even after everyone had said so many niceties and polite words. It was as if he was no longer able to have any other expression.
"The Long family is very powerful, so you have to strike first to gain the upper hand. What can all of you offer?" he asked calmly. "Without enough fighters, defending ourselves would be a problem, never mind attack the Long family.”
"If you are serious about attacking the Long family, then don't hide anything anymore."
The powerful families of the north often kept something hidden as a means of backup. Some hid away highly skilled fighters, some hid money away. Either way, they would never reveal their backups if they didn't need to.
Chang Zaiyuan went straight to the point.
"If anyone hides anything for themselves, then don't blame me for getting nasty! Nobody willingly allows others to just use him as a gun!"
