Chapter 823

Outside the hall.

A servant stumbled into the hall with a panicked look on his face.

"Eldest Master, Third Master, Fourth Master, it's bad, it's really bad, the Huang Jin thieves are outside the city!"

The servant knelt on the ground with a thud and pointed in the direction behind him.

The hall fell into silence instantly.

After reacting, everyone's eyes widened, including Zhen Jiang, who was also extremely surprised.

The Huang Jin thieves had arrived?

So fast?

Zhen Jian, who had risen, could no longer care about Zhen Jiang and Lady Zhang, and strode toward the outside.

As he walked, he pointed his finger at Lady Zhang and Zhen Jiang: "Kind words are useless; now that the enemy is at the gates, if the Zhen clan is destroyed, you will be the sinners of the ages!"

"For the sake of selfish interests, you have pushed the Zhen clan into an abyss from which there is no return; just you wait!"

"Third Brother, Fourth Brother, let's go!"

Zhen Jian flicked his sleeves and walked out of the great hall.

Zhen Ren of the third branch and Zhen You of the fourth branch also hurriedly followed Zhen Jian's footsteps.

As they brushed past Zhen Jiang, the gazes of Zhen Ren and Zhen You were extremely malicious, looking at Zhen Jiang as if they wanted to swallow her alive.

The huge profits from white paper and snow salt were a small matter now.

If the Huang Jin thieves besieged the city and the city fell, the entire Zhen clan would cease to exist; that was the major matter concerning their lives.

Several people walked out of the hall one after another, and the room was suddenly left with only Zhen Jiang, Lady Zhang, and Zhao Yun.

Lady Zhang was already panicked to the extreme.

If they did not hand over the production methods for snow salt and white paper, not only would their family be expelled from the direct line, but they would now face the destruction of their family and death.

The urgent Lady Zhang stepped forward and looked at Zhen Jiang: "Jiang'er, just hand over the production methods."

"Mother doesn't want to force you either, but right now..."
