Chapter 260 Old Friend

On the day when Fang Zhixing killed Gong Xixiong, Zhuang Dao'e and others.

Fan Zhenglun returned to Liuxu Sect and continued to help Fang Zhixing collect resources.

The next day, a distinguished guest suddenly came to visit.

This distinguished guest came from the Luo family, one of the four major clans, and the current deputy general of the navy, Luo Keji!

Fan Zhenglun was naturally very surprised by this person's visit.

Liuxu Sect has always been in a corner and has not fought with the world.

Although his beautiful apprentice was coveted by the prince, it caused a lot of storms.

But among the four major clans, except for the Lu family who was more concerned about this matter.

The Luo family, the Rong family, and the Fei family did not show much enthusiasm.

Liuxu Sect was not troubled by these three families.

It was really unexpected that Luo Keji suddenly came to the door today.

Fan Zhenglun had to cheer up and deal with it carefully.

He looked at Luo Keji carefully for a while, and this person can be said to be a rising star.

Ten years ago, he was still the general of the navy of Qinghe County, and he was not very famous.

But in the following years, Luo Keji rose rapidly and became famous.

Not only did his cultivation continue to break through, but in the process of suppressing the rebel army, he showed amazing strategies, repeatedly made extraordinary achievements, and became famous.

As a result, Luo Keji soon gained the favor of the clan, received key training, and was promoted.

There are rumors that the general of the navy is old and will abdicate soon. If nothing unexpected happens, Luo Keji will definitely take over.

In other words, Luo Keji will soon be in charge of the hundreds of thousands of navy troops in Danzhou.

How many people have such an honor?

Luo Keji is undoubtedly a new noble!

Fan Zhenglun had a gentle expression and said with a smile: "Deputy General Luo, your name is well-known. I am lucky to meet you today."

Luo Keji sat down calmly and drank tea, and said politely with a smile: "Master Fan, you are too polite. You are well-known in the martial arts world. I have admired you for a long time. I should have come to see you a long time ago."

Fan Zhenglun said: "Deputy General Luo is a busy man, and I don't know why you are here today?"

Luo Keji was silent for a moment, and asked with a serious expression: "I heard that the people from Fenghaimen came to make trouble not long ago, but they were wiped out by you?"

Fan Zhenglun's mind tightened and his brain raced.

Fenghaimen is also one of the ten major sects, and it is very active. It has a thousand connections with the four major clans and even King Chi'an.

However, Fan Zhenglun did not know whether there was some kind of close relationship between Fenghaimen and the Luo family.

What if Fenghaimen has already sworn allegiance to the Luo family.

Then Luo Keji came here just to ask for an explanation.

Fan Zhenglun's expression froze slightly, and he nodded, "It is true. That day, Lord Lu Xuanxi, the general of the giant army, was also present."

"Yes, I heard about it."

Luo Keji nodded and said meaningfully, "After Lu Xuanxi left you, he quickly sent people to Fenghaimen and directly occupied Fenghaimen, making a fortune."

Fan Zhenglun also heard about this.

After the leader of Fenghaimen, You Buchou, was killed by Fang Zhixing, Fan Zhenglun also considered sending people to completely destroy Fenghaimen.

But this goes against the purpose of Liuxu Sect and will only involve Liuxu Sect in a vortex of greater interest struggles.

So, after weighing the pros and cons, Fan Zhenglun decisively gave up.

After swallowing Fenghaimen, Lu Xuanxi gained great benefits and really stopped harassing Liuxu Sect.

The evil wolf was finally fed.

Before its next hunger, Liuxu Sect will gain a lot of precious time.

Fan Zhenglun took a deep breath and said, "May I ask Deputy General Luo, has the Fenghaimen incident harmed the interests of the Luo family?"

"That's not the case."

Luo Keji smiled and waved his hand, put down the teacup and said, "Fenghaimen is indeed a piece of fat meat, but my Luo family is not going to compete with the Lu family for food."

Fan Zhenglun breathed a sigh of relief, but was even more suspicious and asked, "Then why did you come here?"

Luo Keji smiled and said, "I heard that the person who killed You Buchou is called Fang Zhixing, right? Tell me about him."

Fan Zhenglun blinked, and didn't expect Luo Keji to be very interested in Fang Zhixing.

He described it as briefly as possible: "Fang Keqing was originally a casual cultivator in the rivers and lakes, and sincerely surrendered to my Liuxu Sect..."

Before he finished speaking, Luo Keji interrupted and said, "Where is he from?"

Fan Zhenglun replied, "I wandered around the rivers and lakes, and I have no fixed place to live."

Luo Keji asked again, "His demon form is a tentacle that can suck blood, right?"

Fan Zhenglun frowned slightly and nodded slightly.

Luo Keji's mouth curled up slightly, and he sighed: "Well, it is indeed the Tianluo Huaxue Gong."

When Fan Zhenglun heard this, he immediately had a guess in his mind that Luo Keji was very likely an old acquaintance of Fang Zhixing.

But he didn't know whether the two were friends or enemies.

The next second, Luo Keji asked directly: "Where is Fang Zhixing?"

Fan Zhenglun said: "Fang Keqing went out to play, and I don't know where he is now."

Luo Keji snorted lightly, stood up slowly and said: "I have nothing else to do. When Fang Zhixing comes back, tell him that I have been here and ask him to come to see me as soon as possible."

Fan Zhenglun hesitated and smiled: "Don't worry, Deputy General Luo, I will definitely convey your words."

Luo Keji stopped talking nonsense and turned to leave.

Fan Zhenglun watched him go, his face full of confusion.

A few days passed in a flash.

The Liuxu Sect had just been peaceful for a few days, and suddenly another heavyweight came to the door.

Fan Zhenglun was the head of a sect, but when he saw this man, he had to bow before him and said respectfully: "I've met Mr. Chief Secretary, but I'm a bit far away from you. Please forgive me."

The prince lives in the palace.

In any royal palace, there is a guard and command department called the "Yiwei Department".

Naturally, there was also a Department of Ceremony and Guards in King Chi'an's palace.

The leader of the Yiwei Department, the Chief of the Department, a serious Qianhu, was fully responsible for the protection of King Chian.

This important position is often held by members of the royal family.

Fan Zhenglun never expected that Ji Xiangjun, the head of the Yiwei Department and a descendant of King Chi'an, would personally visit the Liuxu Sect.

Ji Xiangjun is a woman, her age is unknown, and she looks quite young.

She wore a mighty and domineering fish-dragon suit, with long hair tied around her waist, and a heroic appearance.

Her face is like a blooming peach blossom, and her hands are like fine porcelain, smooth and textured.

"Sect Master Fan, please stand up."

Ji Xiangjun walked over with light steps and raised his hand.

Her demeanor exudes elegance and calmness, as if everything is under her control, which makes people fall in love with her.

Fan Zhenglun stood up, cautiously welcomed Ji Xiangjun into the hall, and asked her to take a seat.

Ji Xiangjun sat down calmly and said straight to the point: "Sect Master Fan, I heard that you went to Jiyin Sect a few days ago?"

Fan Zhenglun's mind was moved, and he continued: "If I go back to Si Shou, I did go there once and came back after three or four days."

Ji Xiangjun nodded and said bluntly: "Well, I won't beat around the bush, are the people from the Gongxi clan still alive?"

Fan Zhenglun's breath was stagnant. He didn't know how the news leaked out. It would be bad to alarm anyone, but it happened to alarm the Department of Ceremony and Wei.

Now we're in big trouble.

When Ji Xiangjun saw this, he smiled and said: "Our Yiwei Division not only protects the prince's safety, but is also responsible for collecting intelligence. All the major forces in Danzhou have the eyes of our Yiwei Division, including the Jiyin Sect and naturally your Liuxu Sect. "

Fan Zhenglun took a deep breath and said, "Since the Chief of Staff already knows the truth, why bother asking the old man?"

Ji Xiangjun smiled and said: "I only know that Gong Xixiong and others quietly sneaked into the Jiyin restricted area and never came out again. I don't know what happened specifically during this."

Fan Zhenglun understood. He thought about it and finally did not dare to lie to the Yiwei Division. He said carefully: "Gong Xixiong colluded with Zhuang Dao'e and intended to murder Ning Yuesu, but he was counterattacked and all the people in the group died."

Ji Xiangjun raised his eyebrows and said with a hint of surprise: "I know Gong Xixiong well, and his strength is obvious to all. Who among the Jiyin Sect can kill him?"

Fan Zhenglun paused and replied: "I didn't witness what happened with my own eyes, but as far as I know, Gong Xixiong and others were killed by Ning Yuesu and Fang Zhixing, who took advantage of the special environment of the extreme Yin restricted area."

Ji Xiangjun's eyes lit up and he clicked his tongue and said, "Oh, it seems the information is correct, Fang Zhixing was also involved."

Fan Zhenglun continued: "He was just accidentally involved."

Ji Xiangjun laughed and said: "There are so many accidents. Fang Zhixing killed You Buyou first and then Gong Xixiong. This is not something ordinary people can do."

She stared deeply at Fan Zhenglun and said seriously: "Sect Leader Fan, if a person shines too brightly, he can't hide it at all!"

Fan Zhenglun took in a breath of cold air and remained speechless.

Yes, Fang Zhixing is really sharp and arrogant.

Those big shots were not blind, so there was no way they could not have noticed Fang Zhixing's existence.

Ji Xiangjun smiled and said: "Sect Master Fan, please tell me everything about Fang Zhixing."

The corner of Fan Zhenglun's mouth fell apart, and he said with a solemn expression: "To be honest, I don't know him very well."

Then, he explained in detail the relationship between the Patriarch, the strange man, and Fang Zhixing.

Finally, he concluded: "In short, he is the descendant of that strange man, and his whole body is full of mystery. I didn't ask too much about his origin."

After listening, Ji Xiangjun couldn't help but tilted his head and fell into deep thought.

After a moment, she spoke again: "The Gongxi clan is the most wealthy clan among the four great clans. The entire clan's elites suddenly suffered an unexpected event, which was beyond everyone's expectations. Once the news spreads, it will definitely cause a lot of turmoil. .

It stands to reason that strength is respected, and whoever destroys the Gongxi clan is qualified to replace them.

However, the prince will definitely not support a person whom no one understands to replace the Gongxi clan. "

Fan Zhenglun said flatly: "Fang Zhixing has no intention of replacing the Gongxi clan. He just wants to be safe."

Ji Xiangjun snorted and said in a deep voice: "Having said that, Fang Zhixing is so powerful that he can destroy an entire clan with just a wave of his hand. How can a master like this be willing to submit to others for the rest of his life?"

Fan Zhenglun was shocked mentally and physically: "What does the Chief Secretary mean?"

Ji Xiangjun continued: "It's impossible for the prince to let Fang Zhixing do whatever he wants. Today he destroyed a sect and tomorrow he slaughtered another clan leader. What's the point? He must be controlled."

Fan Zhenglun couldn't help but ask: "How do you want to control him?"

Ji Xiangjun was well prepared and replied directly: "I haven't met Fang Zhixing yet, so I don't know much about him.

In this way, how about you invite people from the ten sects to come to your Liuxu Sect and let Fang Zhixing compete with the masters of each sect? "

"……good!"

Fan Zhenglun did not dare to disobey, nodded in agreement, and asked: "When?"

Ji Xiangjun said: "I'll give you three days to prepare. Is that enough?"

Fan Zhenglun sighed deeply.

The Liuxu Sect is determined to live in seclusion and escape from the world, but the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. It's too bad!

Fan Zhenglun sent Ji Xiangjun away and immediately called the elders to discuss matters.

Then, everyone dispersed and went to various sects to send invitations.

Fan Zhenglun did not rest for a moment and went to Jiyin Sect in person.

Soon, he met Fang Zhixing.

"Oh, Luo Keji came to see me..."

After listening to Fan Zhenglun's narration, Fang Zhixing chuckled, with a playful expression on his face.

Luo Keji once regarded him as a lackey, driving him at will and exploiting him to his heart's content.

However, after Fang Zhixing became troublesome, Luo Keji abandoned him without hesitation.

"We haven't seen each other for ten years, Luo Keji has become a big shot."

Fang Zhixing's face showed endless anticipation.

At this moment, he was very much looking forward to meeting Luo Keji again and seeing what kind of expression he would have on Luo Keji's face.

Fan Zhenglun said cautiously: "No one can resist the order directly issued by the Yiwei Department. You must accept the challenge from the masters of the ten sects, and it must be a wheel battle. Is that okay?"

Fang Zhixing didn't hesitate and said with a smile: "You can't avoid this kind of thing. What's supposed to come will always come, so let's let the storm come more violently."

The two immediately returned to Liuxu Sect.

Three days passed before I knew it.

This morning, the road leading to Liuxu Sect was crowded with people.

For the first time, Liuxu Palace invited the other nine sects to come as guests.

No, it should be the Eight Sects, Fenghai Sect is dead in name only.

Behind the scenes, there is the Department of Ceremony and Health who is adding fuel to the flames.

As a result, the news spread like wildfire, attracting many people from all walks of life to join in the fun.

In addition to some small sects and small sects, many people came, and even the four major sects also sent people to watch the battle.

For a time, Liuxu Palace was full of guests and friends, and it was more lively than ever.

In fact, such a grand event is rare for hundreds of years.

For this reason, everyone in Liuxu Sect was busy.

They built a huge viewing platform, big enough to accommodate thousands of people.

There were noisy gongs and drums outside, but there was peace in the room.

Fan Zhenglun is introducing seriously:

"Fenghai Sect is finished. Jiyin Sect is on our side. Your pressure mainly comes from the other eight sects, namely Feihuang Sect, Yunshui Sect, Miaoyin Pavilion, Mojian Sect, Qingliang Temple..."

The old man counted the masters of each sect in detail and made an inventory.

Fang Zhixing listened quietly, his expression calm.

Not long after, someone came to report: "The Chief Secretary is here."

Fan Zhenglun and Fang Zhixing immediately stood up to greet them.

Ji Xiangjun walked over, his eyes fell directly on Fang Zhixing, looking at him non-stop, and said with a smile: "You are indeed a talented person, I guess your strength is unfathomable."

Fang Zhixing cupped his hands and said, "Master Sishou is overly praised. I was able to kill You Buyou because I relied on Sect Leader Fan to hold him back. As for Gong Xixiong, it was a pure luck that I was able to kill him."

Ji Xiangjun disagreed and said with a smile: "Luck is also a part of strength."
