Chapter 428: Chapter 424: Tang Zuo’s Tactics

“Clan Leader Tang! We…” Reize, trailing behind, seemed to have a thousand words to say. No one understood the characters of the various clans in Chengzhou better than him. These were clans that exhibited a wolf-like behavior: when you showed power, they acted weak; when you acted weak, they pounced.

As someone who deeply understood the power of the Tang Clan, Reize naturally knew the backbone of the Tang Clan. However, Tang Zhi’s performance today would only make the other clan leaders perceive him as weak. They wouldn’t view this as magnanimity. After all, if the knife didn’t cut the neck, who would know how sharp it is?

Tang Zhi dismissed Reize’s words with a wave of his hand, turning to the remaining clan leaders of the New City and saying, “Gentlemen, go back today. Tomorrow will bring clarity. I believe our Tang Clan’s act of traveling thousands of miles to save lives in Chengzhou carries some weight in everyone’s heart. They won’t flip sides rashly.”

His visage remained calm, his tone mild, yet this outlook seemed far too naive. Even the clans that originally had no intention of betrayal, after seeing the performed weakness of the Tang Clan, would be tempted, especially when the cost of betrayal is so low.

Perhaps not only the nine clans of New City will leave tonight; perhaps tomorrow morning, only nine clans will be left in the council hall.

“Alas!” Reize sighed deeply, his face full of sorrow, and bowed his hand towards Tang Zhi, “I will take my leave now!”

After the last group of New City clan leaders had left the convention hall, only Tang Zhi, seated at the top, and the old man besides him were left.

In the chamber occupied by only the two of them, the old man said resentfully, “Even after a rigorous selection process, these Chengzhou families are still so pathetic. It’s truly disheartening!”

“Elder Tang Zu, you are being too harsh.” Tang Zhi laughed, “In my view, out of nearly thirty tribes, only one is hugely ambitious. This is a remarkable achievement. The assessment by the disciples of the Tang Clan is excellent. Especially the selection work done by Tang Yao!”

Tang Zu’s face looked solemn, “I just hope that they can conceal themselves well in New City. The Tang Clan has already lost too many good disciples. Each of the remaining
