<h4>Chapter 1255: Chapter 1254 Might Not Be a Good Thing</h4>


    Su Yang led these people, rushing from one major family to another within Capital City.


    The people Su Yang released from the dungeon, less than ten percent quietly slipped away, leaving Capital City. The rest were engaged in a fierce battle for revenge within Capital City.


    And over this period of time, half of these people had been killed. Of course, the losses suffered by the major families were even more severe, with the number of dead and injured far exceeding that of these individuals.


    Su Yang brought these people on an exhausting journey through the major families of Capital City, all to rescue these survivors.


    Although these individuals were ferocious, they were far outnumbered and less powerfulpared to the major families. If the battle continued, it might inflict heavy losses on the major families, but in the end, none of these individuals would survive; it was estimated that they would all die here.


    Naturally, Su Yang would not stand by and watch these people be annihted, so he went from one to another, rescuing them all.


    Some Family Heads, simr to Master Wang, were quite wise and could both take action and let go when necessary. Saving these people from their hands was rtively easy for Su Yang.


    On the other hand, some Family Heads remained stubborn and unwilling to back down. For these families, Su Yang did not hold back. As the number of people with him grew, exterminating a few smaller families was an exceedingly easy task.


    In one night, Su Yang gathered all these people, and within Capital City, three families werepletely eradicated.


    When the sun rose, the great battle of Capital City finally came to an end.


    This night was nothing short of a nightmare for the major families of Capital City. All families involved in this matter were ughtered without exception.


    Those families fortunate enough not to have their dungeons breached still suffered losses, losing at least a few members to killings.


    And those less fortunate were entirely wiped out!


    All of this was orchestrated by Su Yang.


    After this night, the major families in Capital City were all filled with emotions.


    Those families that had not involved themselves in this matter were extremely excited and secretly relieved. They suffered no losses because they had not gotten involved. Had they been part of it, who knows what the consequences might have been!


    As for those families that had gotten involved, especially those with no direct enmity towards Su Yang, now deeply regretted it. Had they known this would happen, they would never have gotten involved. They had no grievances with Su Yang but suffered heavy losses by involving themselves in this matter. How could they not feel frustrated?


    The key point is, Su Yang not only survived the battle, but he also gathered arge group around him. This was truly a case of losing one’s wife and soldiers.


    ...


    Watching the sun slowly rise, Lü Donglin returned from the balcony to his room.


    Lü Donglin also did not sleep that night. He had been monitoring the great battle taking ce in Capital City throughout the night.


    Although Su Yang said not to help, he still paid close attention at all times. If Su Yang encountered danger, Lü Donglin was still prepared to lend a hand.


    He did not expect the battle to escte to this point.


    When Capital City was thrown into chaos, Lü Donglin couldn’t help butugh. He knew that once Capital City was utterly in disarray, Su Yang would be out of danger.


    However, what happened afterwards was beyond Lü Donglin’s expectation.


    He returned to his room where Bai Qing happened to be. Seeing Lü Donglin, she immediately said excitedly, "Brother, I just had someone inquire about it. Last night, Su Yang wonpletely. He opened the dungeons of many major families, releasing the people inside. These people caused chaos throughout Capital Cityst night, and all the major families suffered heavy casualties. Some families were even directly annihted by him. Su Yang himself remained unscathed and eventually took all those people from the dungeons with him. Now he has a big group with him, strong enough to face any major family! Wow, that guy really knows how to cause a stir. I thought he was done forst night, but he stirred up such a hugemotion, this battle was fought so beautifully!"


    However, Lü Donglin felt not the slightest joy. He sat down at the table and asked softly, "Where is Su Yang now?"


    "In the Shen Family Courtyard," Bai Qing said. "Last night, Su Yang wiped out three families, and the Shen Family was one of them. They’vepletely taken over the Shen Family Courtyard, and now it has be their headquarters. All those people are there."


    "Get in touch with Su Yang," Lü Donglin said.


    "Can’t get through," Bai Qing replied. "I tried calling him just now and his phone is turned off, probably resting. After fighting all night, how could he not be tired?"


    Lü Donglin’s frown deepened, and after a moment of silence, he stood up and said, "Let’s go find him."


    "Eh?" Bai Qing was surprised. "Brother, why are we looking for him? They’re definitely resting right now. How about we wait until the afternoon after they’ve rested to get in touch?"


    "No, we can’t!" Lü Donglin stated tersely.


    "What’s the matter?" Bai Qing was even more astonished as she followed behind Lü Donglin. "Brother, is there an emergency?"


    Lü Donglin nced at her and said gravely, "I’m afraid he’s in danger!"


    "Danger?" Bai Qing was shocked. "What danger? All the major families suffered heavy casualties, and they’re all busy taking care of their own families’ matters; who has the time and energy to ambush him? Besides, Su Yang has so many people with him, why should he be afraid of being ambushed? Any family that tries to challenge him now would simply be seeking death!"


    "The major families won’t act against him!" Lü Donglin stated solemnly.


    "Then what are you afraid of?" Bai Qing asked, spreading her hands.


    Lü Donglin looked at her and said in a grave tone, "Those people around him are the real danger."


    "His people?" Bai Qing was puzzled. "You mean the ones Su Yang rescued from the dungeons? Brother, what are you afraid of? All those people were saved by Su Yang. Without him, they would still be locked up; they should be grateful to Su Yang. How could they be dangerous?"


    By this time, the two had already reached the doorway, and their vehicle was parked outside.


    Sitting in the car, Lü Donglin said gravely, "Do you really think those people locked up in the dungeons are the kind of people who repay kindness?"


    Bai Qing was taken aback, "Brother, what do you mean by that?"


    "I had also thought of using the people from the dungeons to deal with the major families of Capital City. But my uncle stopped me," Lü Donglin said solemnly. "He told me that in the dungeons of those major families in Capital City, there were individuals like devils. Once these people were released, they would be an endless source of trouble."


    Bai Qing’s expression changed as she urgently said, "Brother, this... this isn’t too serious, right? After all, it was Su Yang who saved them. Don’t they have even a bit of gratitude for being saved?"


    "That’s the problem..." Lü Donglin said in a deep voice. "If there’s no conflict of interest, they might still remember the favor of being saved. But if there’s a conflict of interest, there’s no gratitude to speak of!"
