A streak of flame lit up the horizon. Upon closer look, it was in the direction of the Shangguan Family. The fire there grew increasingly fierce until the entire Jiangcheng could see its glow.
The flames seemed to be reaching for the heavens, illuminating the dark night.
This massive fire burned for a whole day and night before it was extinguished. Overnight, the Shangguan Family was exterminated, leaving no survivors. Shangguan Tanglong and Shangguan Yunyang turned to ashes, and even Shangguan Tenglong, who was lying in bed, met the same fate.
This incident caused an uproar in Jiangcheng like a tidal wave. No one could have imagined that the vast and powerful Shangguan Family could vanish in just one night.
Not long after, rumors began to circulate, claiming that it was the Yunteng Family who orchestrated this. The specific reasons, however, were unknown for the time being.
