Difference in Status

Zhao Yan was not surprised that Zou Bai would do this. He had already provoked him to that extent just now. It would be wrong if he did not react.

"What is Fourth Master Zou doing?" Zhao Yan smiled. "Could it be that he wants to beat me up?"

Since Zhao Yan dared to provoke Zou Bai, he naturally had his own confidence. Although the Zhao Family was not as powerful as before, it was still one of the four great families. The four great families in Beijing had to help each other and could not casually attack another family.

This was a rule set by the ancestors of the four great families. It was to prevent internal strife and bloodshed in the capital. If that time ever came, other families would take advantage of it.

Moreover, Beijing was the center of China. If it was chaotic there, the entire country would not be at peace. It would affect the stability of the country.
