Chapter 1,708: Destruction of the Family
Chapter 1708 Destruction of the Family
Several people's faces showed horror. Zhong Hu patted his chest with lingering fear. The courtyard became quiet for a while. Even the wind stopped blowing and they could hear each other's breathing.
Xiao Muling didn't look at the shocked expressions on their faces. He took out a tea set from the storage space and placed it on the table, and took out a few jars of wine.
"Someone broke into my place, how could I not know." Xiao Muling sat down and explained simply.
Zhong Hu was the first to recover and sat down nearby, "Yes, it was Mo Wen who told us that maybe Ye or people from Shensha Pavilion had forced their way into our residence, so we decided to come back and have a look."
Little did he know that those who came were not from the Ye family and Shensha Pavilion, but the newly chosen young master of the Mu family who left in a menacing manner.
When they arrived, Long Fan had just finished talking to Mu Chengxue and saw the scene of Mu Chengxue leading people away.
Dong You and the others also came back to their senses, each found a place to sit down, and started to relax.
"Let me tell you, Long Fan, what can you do to entertain them?" Lang Ji curled his lips and put down the wine he brought back on the table.
Even if the Mu family is here, there is no need to look good on them. They don't rely on the Mu family for food.
Long Fan twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at Xiao Muling quickly, took the new tea set and made tea again, "I'm used to it."
This sentence can be regarded as an explanation.
After being in the ghost market for a long time, I always feel that I am just a guest and it is not good to offend the peace.
Long Fan knew that Mo Wen's destruction of the gap was not personal. It might be that the tea set was missing a cup and she didn't want it, or maybe someone from the Mu family had touched the tea set and she didn't want it.
Dong You came over and looked at Xiao Muling curiously, "Mo Wen, do you have any grudges with the Mu family?"
She didn't even want the tea sets that Mu's family had touched. This "grievance" was extraordinary.
Although everyone had guesses in their minds, after Dong You asked, they all looked at Xiao Muling curiously.
Judging from her reaction just now, there should be no "grace" in it.
Xiao Muling lowered his eyes and replied: "It's considered a grudge."
A few people suddenly understood and nodded, just say it.
"Sorry." Long Fan apologized.
Indeed, if he gave her things to her enemies, anyone would feel uncomfortable.
Xiao Muling raised her eyes and said with a smile: "I'm here to drink today. Don't worry about them. Let's play with ourselves. We'll talk about anything tomorrow."
Just say these things casually, there is no need to continue.
"good!"
"That `s a deal."
"Have fun today!"
"I don't drink."
"It's not tea."
…
Everyone picked up their wine glasses and teacups, planning to have a great time today and not ask or care about anything else.
It's like after meeting each other yesterday, I always felt that it was too late to meet each other.
Even though they had met several people before, they had never had this kind of atmosphere, and they had never taken the initiative to talk or make friends with each other.
Yesterday, I finally got to know each other.
Have a great time today and discuss some matters tomorrow. They all know that after this trip, they will not be able to leave Wuwang City for the time being, and the Mu family will not let them leave easily.
Lou Guanshan leaned lazily on the armrest of the chair and pointed at them, "Before yesterday, I didn't even know you all lived here."
Before, I kept to myself, didn't want to interact with outsiders, and didn't pay attention to anyone.
"The guest house is not the best restaurant in Wuwang City. Where can we stay if we don't stay here?" Dong You asked disdainfully.
It’s not like they said they have no money, so why should they wrong themselves?
"That's right." Lou Guanshan couldn't refute.
In their situation, there is no need to wrong themselves when they go out.
"I was planning to leave." Dong You looked regretful and couldn't help but sigh.
If that sound hadn't pulled her back, she would have left Wuwang City long ago. She didn't know where her next stop would be. She might encounter a holy land of cultivation worth staying and stay in seclusion for ten or eight years.
It's also possible to go to some desperate place, go in and fight to your heart's content and then come out. Oh, I don't know if I can come out yet, so I'll try my best.
Zhong Hu glanced at them in surprise and asked, "You are all here for Wan Zhang Gui Yi Lu?!"
Just like him!
"Otherwise?" they all said in unison.
If Wan Zhang Gui Yi Lu hadn't appeared in the world and was being auctioned as a trading item, who would come to Wuwang City for no reason? This wouldn't be a good place.
Xiao Muling just took a sip of tea and almost choked.
Long Fan silently glanced in her direction, a smile flashing in his eyes.
"It's a pity that the owner of Wan Zhang Gui Yi Lu won't sell it." Lou Guanshan shook his head.
The ghost market doesn't say who the other party is. Even if they want to trade with the other party privately, they don't have this opportunity.
"Long Fan, tell me." Lang Ji looked at Long Fan.
He is in the ghost market. Can you tell me why?
"You didn't receive the news? Didn't it spread all over the world?" Long Fan looked helpless as they stared at him, wanting an answer.
The news was spreading like wildfire outside, but didn't any of them care about it?
"It's really the Ye family." Dong You was shocked.
She had heard the news, but didn't take it seriously at the time. She thought it was just the ghost market that spread the news to give everyone an explanation.
Moreover, the Ye family did not come forward to deny it. In a situation like this, it is more useful not to deny it than to deny it.
If you don't pay attention to gossip, it will naturally disappear. Rumors are just rumors and will never come true.
Zhong Hu smiled and said, "Before you came to Wuwang City, you didn't know much about Wuwang City."
If you really know Wuwang City, how could you ask such a question?
Dong You nodded, "Well, I'm just here to buy something. Why do you want to know Wuwang City?"
It's not like he has settled down in Wuwang City and won't leave.
"The Ye family and Chensha Pavilion have great power in Wuwang City. They want to control everything. You have traveled to so many places, but you have never seen imperial power in places as big as a palm. The Ye family and Chensha Pavilion are just like that. Much like those small countries dominated by imperial power.”
What an emperor, a king, a bunch of mess.
"Ah!" Dong You suddenly realized that this was the case. She really didn't understand these things.
"The Ye family wants to monopolize it. The owner of Wan Zhang Gui Yi Lu knows that, and naturally he doesn't want Wan Zhang Gui Yi Lu to fall into the hands of people like the Ye family."
If it were them, they wouldn't agree.
"So, the owner of Wan Zhang Gui Yi Lu has left Wu Wang City?" If you don't want to trade in Wu Wang City, then choose the next place to continue.
It was like this in Wuwang City, will it be like this in the next place?
As soon as Dong You's question came up, they looked at Long Fan again.
Long Fan is from the ghost market, so he definitely knows more than they do. As for the question just now, if it weren't for Long Fan's confirmation, they would just hear and know the rumors outside, but they wouldn't be sure.
"I am not responsible for this guest." Long Fan raised his hands, "Even if I know, I can't reveal the guest's affairs. Please don't embarrass me."
After Long Fan finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Muling again from the corner of his eye. He was sitting here. Did he dare to say anything?
"Let's chat casually. If you can't talk, don't talk." Zhong Hu waved his hand and didn't care.
They just chatted and didn't say anything they couldn't say, which was okay.
Long Fan picked up the cup and joked: "Thank you everyone."
"You're welcome," they joked.
Just drinking and chatting like this, the atmosphere was still very harmonious. They just met in the middle of the road. They didn't ask about the past, didn't ask about the future, didn't force anything, and had no interests. The only purpose was to get along harmoniously in Wuwang City.
Now they are tied together. They have all gone down to the sinkhole that suddenly appeared, and they know even more clearly that Wuwang City will try their best to deal with them in this matter.
In a way, they are already in the same boat.
Just talk about Wuwang City and they share the same hatred. There is no need to delve into other matters, and there is no need to delve into them.
They drank and had fun in the courtyard, and the restaurant even sent them a few snacks, or else they joked about some random things.
In the evening, they all said what they should have said earlier depending on the time, and they dispersed.
They were being targeted like this by Wuwang City during their trip. If they were not prepared at all and didn't think of joining forces, that would be stupid.
After Lang Ji and the four of them left, Long Fan looked towards Jun Zhao's room.
"Jun Zhao is causing trouble for the girl. Just drive him away tomorrow morning." Long Fan didn't trust Jun Zhao, but he couldn't stay here forever.
In the ghost market, he had other things to deal with, especially this trip to the "Xuan Pit", which he had to arrange.
This time the wine was not in vain, the six of them went down together, and then the six of them jointly faced each other. If anyone escaped, I am afraid that if they see each other in Huanyuan Continent in the future, they will not have the same joke today. Scenes of the world.
"This is my business." Xiao Muling said simply.
Jun Zhao wakes up and decides whether to stay or leave. She won't force her to come. Anyway, it's a rented place. She paid for it. It's empty. It's good to have people living here.
Long Fan turned around and stared at Xiao Muling, "I understand."
She didn't want to drive Jun Zhao away, but there was nothing wrong with letting Jun Zhao stay here.
"If you want to find someone to cooperate with something, you can come to me. I will ask him not to care about outside matters." As he spoke, Long Fan took out his own wooden sign and handed it to Xiao Muling.
This is his promise.
Xiao Muling glanced at the wooden sign, raised his eyes to meet Long Fan's gaze, smiled faintly, and reached out to take it.
"Okay." There is nothing wrong with having one more ally in Wuwang City.
Long Fan cupped his hands and walked away.
Xiao Muling watched him go away, gently rubbed the wooden sign with her fingertips, then glanced down at it and put it into the storage space.
Jun Zhao had a dedicated person taking care of him in the room. Xiao Muling didn't go to see him. Xiao Muling didn't take care of the mess in the courtyard on the first floor. He just asked the people from the restaurant to clean it up tomorrow. Xiao Muling went straight upstairs.
In the dark night, Xiao Muling sat down on the balcony, opposite the Mu family.
Xiao Muling closed her eyes, her figure melted into the darkness, and she could hardly feel her breath.
Xiao Muling determined Ye Jingyuan's location as quickly as possible. The man who showed off his power outside would be as timid as he wanted when he returned home.
At this moment, Ye Jingyuan was kneeling in the ancestral hall. As the day passed, he did not dare to leave, let alone complain.
Even though he was already furious and wanted to smash all the tablets in front of him, he just thought about it and didn't even dare to touch them.
Seeing Ye Jingyuan kneeling there so bored, Xiao Muling stopped looking. There was no need for him for the time being, so he could just stay with Ye Jingyuan at home.
When it comes time for him to wait, the Ye family should...
Xiao Muling opened her eyes, got up and walked to her room. Her room was next door to Qianyou's room. When she returned to the room, Xiao Muling entered the space.
In the space, the puppets in a divine cauldron lay in it and were tempered by the fire of the earth's core. Various attributes of spiritual power were gathered in a divine cauldron for them to absorb power.
While tempering, absorb the power of your own attributes, a two-pronged approach!
The main reason is that Xiao Muling has no better time to do it all at the moment, otherwise the tempering and absorption of the attribute power that the puppet cultivated during his lifetime would have to be done separately.
These are the first batch of puppets that Xiao Muling refined. They are mainly used for training and experiments. In addition, she needs a few dead warriors to use them as long as they can. Xiao Muling has no intention of forcing others.
After making sure that they were all in good condition, Xiao Muling went to practice. She walked into the Lingyuan Pond and sank herself to the bottom of the water. The continuous power in the water entered her body like running water.
Xiao Muling lay quietly under the water, as if asleep.
It's not that Xiao Muling can't feel the pain that he felt underwater before, but he's just used to it, and the feeling is not as unbearable as before.
Lingyuan Pond is good for practicing, regulating breath, and washing away fatigue. There is no other better place in this space for Xiao Muling to recover.
No matter how much the space changes, Xiao Muling will still come to Lingyuan Pool to take a dip when she feels tired.
It was night, and the moonlight was like water, flowing through every place in the world. Afterimages passed quickly under the moonlight and walked outside the "Qiu Tower".
"kill!"
With an order, one figure after another rolled into Qiu Tower as fast as possible, taking advantage of the fact that the people in Qiu Tower were unprepared to kill the killer!
The smell of blood quickly spread in Qiu Tower, and then everyone in Qiu Tower woke up, and a fighting battle broke out in Qiu Tower.
This battle lasted for most of the night, and no one from Qiu Lou came out. No matter they were people who went in or were from Qiu Lou, there was no movement until the sky was slightly light.
Gao Yi'an was sitting on the high platform of the martial arts training ground. The people kneeling below were all people from Qiu Tower, and the owner of Qiu Tower, Qiu Zhuang, was now a dead soldier.
Cang Wu and the others came over, glanced at Qiuzhuang on the ground, and looked at Gao Yi'an.
"Master Gao, we will take this person away." Yuan Nian clasped his fists.
Gao Yi'an nodded, "Of course."
Gao Yi'an was very happy. If the four of them hadn't helped, the battle in Qiu Lou wouldn't have been so smooth.
Knowing that they were sent by the girl, Gao Yi'an was even more happy. The girl didn't ignore him. No, she even sent someone to help.
Nanfeng and Cangwu took the people with them, and the four of them walked in the air and soon disappeared under the dim sky.
Qianyou and Zuo Xia stood on the left and right sides of Gao Yi'an, watching the four of them go away, with solemn expressions and uneasiness.
A dead body has to be taken away, what is that girl going to do?
They didn't dare to guess, let alone know too much. They would leave as soon as the affairs in Wuwang City were over. If they had to know too much, they wouldn't be sure whether they could leave.
Some things are better not known.
Until now, the sect leader is very happy that the girl sent someone to help. Has he ever thought about why the Tianlei sect needs help when the people around the girl are so powerful?
"Master..." Zuo Xia just started to speak, but Gao Yi'an raised his hand to stop her from continuing.
"You take care of the living on your own. The obedient ones stay, and the disobedient ones are free to you." After Gao Yi'an finished speaking, he looked at the sky and stretched.
It was getting late and he had to go back to rest.
Qianyou's face darkened, and when he was about to speak, Zuo Xia pulled him back, "Yes."
After Gao Yi'an walked away, Qianyou looked at Zuo Xia and said, "Xiao Xia, why do you care so much about him? More than ten years ago, you didn't care about things in the sect, but now you still don't care about them when you come back. We are not the masters of Tianlei Sect, so why should we care so much? many!"
After taking down a force, what happens next should be arranged by the sect leader, not them. They have taken care of enough over the years.
Zuo Xia raised her hand and patted Qianyou, then walked to Gao Yi'an's seat and sat down. She sat on half of the seat, leaving the other half for Qianyou. Qianyou hesitated and sat on the other half.
"What do you want to say?" Qianyou asked.
"We all dislike him. Do you think the girl can think that he is such a big deal?" The girl knows better than them what the Tianlei Sect's leader is like.
Qianyou pouted, "She is so powerful, of course she won't take him seriously."
This is inevitable.
The previous leader of Tianlei Sect only valued Gao Yi'an because of his strength, thinking that his strength could intimidate all the forces in Wuwang City and prevent Tianlei Sect from being destroyed.
The current situation is indeed the case, but...if it continues like this, not even the scum of the Tianlei Sect will be left.
"We can't leave, and the owner doesn't care, so we have to do something. If the girl's affairs go smoothly, we can leave more smoothly."
They don't have to worry about what Gao Yi'an did, what they did is the most important.
Qianyou asked worriedly: "That girl will really let us go?"
If you are involved in it, can you really leave?
Zuo Xia thought for a while and murmured: "Wuwang City is definitely possible."
She couldn't guess what the girl would decide.
Things are already like this, so why don't they follow their own ideas. They have been aggrieved for Gao Yi'an's words for so long these years, so why don't they go all out this time.
Seeing Zuo Xia's solemn look, Qianyou stood up and raised his hand to rub her head.
"I'm going back."
"Hey!" Zuo Xia couldn't believe it, let her come alone!
"I don't have to plan for our future." Qianyou said without looking back.
Before coming back, she promised the girl that she would do it so that they could leave Wuwang City as soon as possible.
After staying here for so long, she was already tired of it, and she wanted to change places.
Zuo Xia laughed silently when he saw Qianyou walking away.
All right.
They were each busy with their own affairs and making plans for what was to come.
It was daybreak, and the whole Wuwang City knew about Qiu Lou. It was not that people around Qiu Lou didn't know about the big commotion last night, but they just didn't act.
No one cares about the life or death of others unless the matter falls on themselves.
Everyone also understands the grudge between Tianleimen and Qiulou. Sooner or later, it will happen, and it depends on who strikes hard first.
As a result, it is obvious that after Gao Yi'an came back, Tianleimen was no longer as forbearing as before. He had been bullied so many times before. If he quit, how could Gao Yi'an secure his position as the leader of the sect?
The news that Qiu Lou was destroyed soon reached the ears of Shensha Pavilion and the Ye family. After they heard the news, they were surprised that Gao Yi'an destroyed Qiu Lou.
The way Gao Yi'an looked in front of them more than ten years ago, he didn't look like someone who could get out of such a thing.
He also thought that in the more than ten years since Gao Yi'an was gone, the Tianlei Sect had indeed been bullied miserably. If he could endure it, it would not be Qiu Lou but the Tianlei Sect that would disappear.
Gao Yi'an is not a fool to become the leader of the sect. Now that he is back, he must destroy one or two forces to increase his prestige.
Forget it, this kind of petty quarrel is nothing. As long as it doesn't get in front of their two families, they can ignore everything and pretend they don't know what they are doing.
Shensha Pavilion and the Ye family didn't react at all. Even if the Wuwang City incident became more uproar, there would be no trouble for anyone going to Zhongtian Thunder Gate!
When the news reached the ghost market, Long Fan was having breakfast with the owner of the ghost market.
"Qiu Lou just disappeared like that?" The boss was a little surprised, and then laughed sarcastically, "It's nothing."
Just a small thing.
In other places, if a fight between one or two forces would have resulted in numerous casualties, it would not have caused much disturbance. In fact, Wuwang City had been peaceful for too many years.
There had been no fights between forces in decades, let alone the annihilation of families, so they were so surprised when they heard the news.
Long Fan frowned and didn't answer. Seeing his silence, the boss looked over in confusion.
"You don't think it's right?" If you have any ideas, let them talk about it together.
Long Fan hesitated and shook his head, "I don't know, maybe Wuwu City has been peaceful for too long, and suddenly there is this kind of struggle to destroy the family, and I feel..."
Not used to it?
All in all, a very strange feeling.
"Okay, eat quickly. Are you going to see Jun Zhao? I will figure this out." The boss joked.
He didn't go back to the ghost market all night, so he looked nervous.
No matter why Qiu Lou was exterminated by the Tianlei Sect, he still had to find out clearly to be sure.
At the mention of Jun Zhao, Long Fan came back to his senses.
Yes, he wanted to go see Jun Zhao early. He didn't know what happened to him tonight.
As for the Mu family, they didn't care about Qiu Lou at all. The sinkhole that appeared left the Mu family at a loss. How could they care about others destroying the family?
They just want to know what the few people who went down saw there, whether there is any danger down there, and whether they can fill this hole!
It is absolutely impossible for Wuwang City and Linglu Mountain to be so disconnected!
Guest house, Xiao Muling's yard, after Cang Wu and the others came back, Xiao Muling heard the noise and left the space.
On the balcony, Xiao Muling looked at Qiu Zhuang, who was still cold. The puppet threads gathered in the palm of his hand. The moment the puppet threads took shape, Xiao Muling waved his hand and tied Qiu Zhuang's limbs. Then, he opened his eyes!
