In the presence of everyone, Yan Huangjiu announced Yan Qingxue as the heir, and then handed her a token.
This token symbolized that all the finances and business routes of Mount Shang City henceforth would be under Yan Qingxue's charge.
Another identical token, controlling all martial forces within Mount Shang City, was still held by Yan Huangjiu, as he had not yet decided to pass it on.
After making the announcement, Yan Huangjiu left with his people, but before leaving, he looked deeply into Su Xin's eyes, questioning if this man really deserved his trust.
Meanwhile, as Yan Shengheng and the others returned to their quarters, the first thing they did was to inform the powers behind them and seek assistance.
Since Yan Huangjiu had declared Yan Qingxue the heir of Mount Shang City, the influence given to them by Yan Huangjiu was now moot. Their only strategy was now to seek help from their backing sects and gauge their intentions.
