Upon his return to Pingxi City, Yan Liqiang found out that the city gates had much stricter security measures than a few days ago .

The soldiers at the city gates were all armed with swords and spears . The numbers were also greater than before and they checked everyone strictly, especially the Shatu people .

Yan Liqiang knew what this was of course . Just two days ago, Wang Jianbei lit up the fire barrels in the areas where the Shatu people gathered .

The black four-wheeled carriage went into the city without obstruction . On the city streets, it wasn’t the police patrolling the streets anymore, but the soldiers . People who normally loitered around didn’t roam the streets anymore, and most people walked past quickly .

The black four-wheeled carriage rode straight to the Prefectural Governor’s Office . Yan Liqiang got off the carriage and was welcomed into the back garden of the Prefectural Governor’s Office by the attendant . Prefectural Governor Wang Jianbei had already set up a feast in the garden as though he had just been waiting for Yan Liqiang to come .

“Hahaha, Liqiang, you came just at the right time!” Wang Jianbei laughed and held Yan Liqiang’s arm as he pulled Yan Liqiang hospitably into the balcony . “I knew you would come around this time . The wine and food were just brought up, waiting for you!”

“Prefectural Governor, you seem to be in a good mood!” Yan Liqiang smiled . If it was his other life, Yan Liqiang definitely would not have come when one man kept inviting another man to have dinner in a garden, but Wang Jianbei seemed to love this atmosphere . Of course, he didn’t have other intentions .

“The night sky is beautiful today . Here, I can invite you to watch a great show, hahaha…” Wang Jianbei said and poured Yan Liqiang a cup of wine .

“You’ve chosen it to be tonight?” Yan Liqiang asked .

“Mhm . Two days ago, I pulled out the soldiers that maintained order in the east city . We’ll let the dogs fight each other . The east city has been quite boisterous these two days . Tension has been building up between the two sides . Tonight will probably be a wild night!” Wang Jianbei smiled and poured himself a cup .

“Haha, then let this first cup of wine be cheers to the future prosperity of our Pingxi Prefecture!” Yan Liqiang raised his cup and smiled . The two touched cups and drank .

“This decision wasn’t easy to make!” Wang Jianbei sighed . “Without the support of the Provincial Governor and you, I’d be hesitant to create such a commotion in Pingxi City…”

“Those people are the tumor of Pingxi City . They always create ruckus and chaos . One slight unhappiness and they create a huge commotion to rebel against the bureaucracy . If there’s a change in the situation, these people are a huge threat to the city . The heavens sees the law of karma . In these few decades, these people used forceful and shameless means to rob places . The citizens have endured many hardships and have nowhere to ask for help . That area is now a place for hiding all the darkness and filth . Even though the Prefectural Governor used some means to remove this threat from Pingxi City, it’s like scraping the bones to remove the poison . It’ll be a huge merit . Liqiang will salute a cup to Prefectural Governor!” Yan Liqiang poured wine for them both and then the two downed it all again .

“The aftermath will be left to you, Liqiang . You must not let people hit my backbone!”

“Hahaha, rest assured Prefectural Governor . Leave that area to me . I promise it will be ten times more prosperous than when the Shatu were there!”

“That’s great, that’s great!” Wang Jianbei smiled and nodded .

“The Shatu have nefarious intent and are used to being domineering in the city . If we attack tonight, the Prefectural Governor needs to be wary of forcing them into a last stand based on their numbers!”

“Liqiang, don’t worry, I have made the arrangements . Your idea from last time is very good . Life has been getting harder for those Shatu people in the city this year . Quite a few of them have already left the city . There are much fewer Shatu people here compared to a few years ago!”

Drinking and talking about the future plans for that area of the city with the Prefectural Governor, Yan Liqiang had the feeling that he was a greedy real estate developer conspiring with officials to forcefully mow down a piece of land .

Of course, to the Shatu people in the city, Yan Liqiang’s heart was quite dark indeed, but this was a compliment to Yan Liqiang because being evil to bad people was an act of kindness itself . Only after kicking away those Shatu people would Pingxi City finally be removed from a big threat . Yan Liqiang would be able to sleep peacefully . Otherwise, those Shatu people were like a ticking time bomb . If some situation arose, those Shatu people would be able to conspire with the Shatu people from the outside . The damage they would be able to do would be immeasurable . This possibility made Yan Liqiang restless . Kicking away the Shatu people in the city was his target after coming back home this time .

If the Dark Razor Tribe and Dark Wood Tribe didn’t have a conflict, it wouldn’t be easy to kick out those Shatu people in the city . The way Yan Liqiang thought of before was to slowly cook the frog, slowly exhausting their power . But in this conflict, there was a better way to take care of them .

This was because out of the Shatu people gathered in the city, the most numerous were the Dark Razor and Dark Wood Tribe people . The two combined accounted for more than 70% of the Shatu population in the city . The Dark Razor Tribe and Dark Wood Tribe had about the same number of people, and these two tribes lived separately . Dark Razor Tribe was slightly stronger in power and was the leader and manager of the Shatu people in the city . If something happened, the Dark Razor Tribe could gather all the Shatu in the city and mobilize them .

But now, as the conflict between the Dark Razor and Dark Wood Tribes grew, the atmosphere had changed . The Dark Razor and Dark Wood people’s relations in the city grew tense . There would often be small conflicts . Before, Wang Jianbei sent soldiers into their area for patrol to maintain peace . They segregated the area that the Dark Razor and Dark Wood Tribes lived in from the nearby streets . He set up a firewall between the two tribes, but now Wang Jianbei had taken that wall away . His excuse was that the situation at the Gulang Plains was unstable . He needed to assist defending White Stone Pass .

Wang Jianbei not only took away the firewall, but he also added fire to oil . These two days, people from the Dark Razor Tribe and Dark Wood Tribe mysteriously disappeared . This caused tension to escalate to unprecedented levels .

In less than two hours, the wine wasn’t finished but the sky was completely dark . Not long after that, a fiery inferno rose up from the direction of the Pingxi City’s Nine Dragons Bridge, illuminating the sky red…
