"The Zheng Family, the Zhu Family, the Chang Family, and the Zhao Family, along with the Zhang Family, have formed an alliance against us, surely under the direction of that young lad, Chen Xuan."
"So it seems he's not lying; he truly can command the Luo Family! Now the Luo Family and Li Family are standing with them as well, which is somewhat disadvantageous for us."
"Hmm, their alliance is slightly stronger than our four families. If we rely solely on fighting, the final outcome would be unbearable for anyone."
"We are merely in a relationship of mutual constraint. The key to victory ultimately lies in the struggles between the top-tier families."
The four patriarchs expressed their opinions, each offering their own views.
Patriarch Jiang nodded and said, "What you said is true; whether it's the five-family alliance or our four-family alliance, at best, they are just auxiliary skirmishes."
