Chapter 42: Chapter 42 Ancestral Coffin

"Great Elder, the Wang Family and the Wan Family have been attacking our businesses like mad dogs these past few days," a servant reported from below: "Several of our pill workshops and weapon vaults have already been forced to close."

"In the past, our three families developed peacefully. I didn't expect that as soon as Father passed away, they wouldn't be able to contain themselves," Situ Bo, the eldest son, said indignantly, "If you ask me, we should just fight them. Let them know we're not to be trifled with and get them to think twice before they act."
