The three sons of the Nangong Family were coming strong, swiftly clashing with Zhou Gu and Zhang Yun who were trying to uproot the Nangong Family's secret agents.
The influence of the Nangong family in Nanchu, entrenched for hundreds of years, was not a mere figure of speech. Thus, even if Zhou Gu and Zhang Yun were extremely capable and cunning, they couldn't halt the overwhelming force of the three sons of the Nangong Family and their covert assassins within a short time.
Luckily, there were secret agents placed in Nanchu by the Crown Prince beforehand. Otherwise, no matter how competent they were, they couldn't act rashly on Nanchu's home turf.
Even so, they were placed on the defensive, very much on the defensive.
The two of them, along with their secret guards, launched a fierce battle of wills, strength, ruthlessness, and lethal tactics against the three sons of the Nangong Family.
Zhou Gu was injured countless times, and so was Zhang Yun.
