Chapter 355: Meng's Bet, Who Killed Him! (Two in One)

Several centurions also landed one after another, and led the troops to block the sudden arrival of this group of people, as if they were facing a great enemy.

After all, the innate aura of the other party was so strong that it was really hard to ignore, and there were more than 20 people!

Just as these centurions were thinking about whether to directly release the signal flare of the invaders, one of the people in the group did not waste words and directly took out a token.

There were many patterns engraved on it, and in the middle was a big word Meng.

The soldiers were shocked and put down their weapons immediately.

They all recognized that it was the identity token of the Meng family, and the clothes of this group of people were indeed the children of a big family.

"Where is the flag owner Yang?" The older man holding the token in the lead said.

His voice was not loud, but it turned into sound waves that were progressive and easily spread throughout the city lord's mansion.

A few breaths later, Yang Zhen, Song Changming, Xing Tiexin and others landed in this yard one after another.

"Hello, Senior Meng Yuan." Yang Zhen's eyes fell on the leader, his face changed slightly, and he bowed.

Song Changming saw from Yang Zhen's expression that the leader in front of him undoubtedly had a high status in the Meng family.

He wore a jade crown and had a few wrinkles on his face, but he was not as old as Zhao Liang.

"Tell me how my brother died!" Meng Yuan had no expression on his face, but his voice was emotional.

Obviously, his heart was not as calm as his face.

Song Changming also quickly realized that the leader of the Meng family was actually Meng Jianli's elder brother.

The innate energy on the other party was extremely strong and full of oppression.

Song Changming felt deeply that the elder brother of Meng Jianli in front of him was actually a top strong man who had opened up nine martial veins and reached the innate perfection realm!

Yang Zhen explained the assassination of Meng Jianli by the disguised flower cat slave demon, but did not reveal the matter of Zhao Zun and Zhao Liang for the time being.

Meng Yuan listened in silence, his aura becoming slightly unstable.

The surrounding energy also became chaotic, the flowers and plants in the yard flew, the floor tiles broke, and the gravel was disturbed by the energy magnetic field and floated one meter above the ground.

The other Meng family members who arrived looked at each other and kept silent, not wanting to get into trouble at this time.

"Uncle." Meng Shuxuan suddenly arrived.

Meng Yuan's aura just stabilized, and the chaotic energy around him dissipated.

"Xuan'er." Meng Yuan's face showed sadness and sighed.

"Uncle is late."

Meng Shuxuan pursed her lips and said, "Uncle, mother is waiting for you."

"Okay, take me there." Meng Yuan nodded.

After watching the group go away, Song Changming retracted his gaze.

"Not bad, at least he didn't vent his anger on us, and he is not a rude person." Xing Tiexin said softly on the side.

"This Meng Yuan is not simple. He also has a lot of say in the Meng family. Maybe we can work on him." Yang Zhen said.

He didn't know Meng Jianli, but he knew who Meng Yuan was.

In a house, Meng Yuan looked at Meng Jianli's body in the coffin, clenching his fists.

"Brother"

"Xuan'er, is everything you said true?"

In the lobby, Meng Shuxuan stood behind Meng Yuan with cold eyes.

"I saw it with my own eyes. The Zhao family colluded with the demon clan."

"I know." Meng Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Outside the house.

Song Changming walked into the lobby at this time, attracting the attention of many Meng family members present.

"Senior Meng Yuan, the city lord left me a letter before he left, and asked me to take it back to the Meng family and hand it to you personally."

Song Changming directly stated his purpose and handed over the suicide note given to him by Meng Jianli.

Meng Jianli is undoubtedly a meticulous person.

He had been worried about the possibility of an unexpected event one day, so he had always prepared such a letter and explained many things after his death.

Before Meng Jianli died, he did not have time to explain who he wanted to give the letter to, but at this time Song Changming thought that it was a good choice to give it to the person in front of him.

Because of this letter, many Meng clan members present looked at Song Changming differently.

After all, Meng Jianli was willing to entrust the letter to Song Changming before his death, which was enough to show that Song Changming was at least a person Meng Jianli trusted during his lifetime.

Meng Yuan took the envelope and opened it.

There were several pages of letter paper, and it could be seen that Meng Jianli did explain many things.

After reading the letter paper, Meng Yuan was quite moved. After a long time, he exhaled and looked at Song Changming.

"Thank you."

"My condolences." Song Changming shook his head and said.

"You are the General Song that Xuan'er mentioned. Can I have a word with you?" Meng Yuan suddenly said.

"Okay." Song Changming agreed, thinking that the other party already knew about Zhao Zun and Zhao Liang.

The two of them left the hall and came to a small courtyard with no one.

"You killed Zhao Zun and Zhao Liang, and you should also know that the Zhao family will never let you go." Meng Yuan went straight to the point and said bluntly.

"It's the same whether you kill them or not." Song Changming stood two steps behind Meng Yuan and said this.

"Indeed, you have no way out, and you must be against the Zhao family." Meng Yuan nodded.

Song Changming didn't say much. He saw that the powerful man from the aristocratic family in front of him was not a person who would beat around the bush, so he simply waited for Meng Yuan's next words.

He also knew that what he said next was the key point.

It depends on the other party's attitude towards this matter.

"I can help you." Meng Yuan turned around and looked at Song Changming directly, and he really didn't beat around the bush.

"Even let the Meng family stand on your side in this matter, but there is a prerequisite."

"Senior, please speak."

"Xuan'er said that you killed that old man Zhao Liang alone. To be honest, I don't believe it without seeing it with my own eyes. If you can block my sword, it will convince me." Meng Yuan said.

Song Changming understood. He thought that the other party was willing to help him, largely because he killed Zhao Liang alone.

This record is really amazing.

He doesn't have the Qi training of the innate perfection realm, but he has the combat strength of the innate perfection level.

For such a talent, Meng Yuan doesn't mind trying his best to get a piece of it.

Of course, the premise is to test the goods.

Whether Song Changming really has this strength and potential, it is worth it for him to do so.

"Okay." Song Changming agreed.

"Then here, do you need to prepare?" Meng Yuan pulled out one of his swords and asked.

"Anytime." Song Changming has already sacrificed all the armor seals.

The other party is also a strong man in the innate perfection realm, he can't be arrogant.

"Okay!" Meng Yuan was not polite and stabbed out a sword.

The sword energy was like a beam of strong light, and it hit Song Changming's abdomen in an instant.

It was not a vital part, and if Song Changming could not take it, it would not be fatal.

This sword energy was extremely condensed, and even if it fell on Song Changming, it did not cause much noise, and did not even cause too much energy shock in the courtyard. It was obvious that this was done intentionally by Meng Yuan.

He did not want to attract too much attention.

Puff!

With a slight sound of flesh tearing, a small bloody wound appeared on Song Changming's abdomen.

Song Changming was injured, but that was all. The injury was not serious. Even Song Changming's body did not shake because of the sword, and he still stood firmly in the same place.

After a few breaths, without any movement from Song Changming, the wound stopped bleeding by itself and gradually healed.

"Without using the Qi to protect the body, pure flesh and blood resisted, an amazing result of body training!"

Meng Yuan knew the power of his sword, and he was quite moved by Song Changming's calm and calm blocking with his flesh.

Especially after seeing Song Changming's self-healing ability afterwards.

In his eyes, this treasure-level body is truly flawless and rare in the world.

With this flesh and blood body alone, he is indeed qualified to fight with the strong men of the innate perfection realm, and even has the possibility of killing them.

Even if this person's Qi training level is only to open four martial veins.

A thought flashed through Meng Yuan's mind, and he basically recognized Song Changming's extraordinary combat power.

"I will help you within my ability, this is my promise." Meng Yuan put away his sword and said.

"Then what do you need me to do?" Song Changming said seriously.

I always feel that Meng Yuan's promise to help him is too easy.

This muddy water is not a trivial matter. It is to offend the Zhao family, which involves a lot.

Even if Meng Yuan is backed by the Meng family, which is also a top family, but if it is a family level, is Song Changming really worth offending the Zhao family like this?

"This is what I promised you, and I will not go back on my word. If you have any concerns, then just consider it as a favor owed to the Meng family." Meng Yuan walked out, talking as he walked.

"In addition, for me personally, you helped my brother before, and I can't just sit back and watch this time."

Meng Yuan said, and left the yard.

It can be seen that Meng Jianli's death still made him feel depressed, and he was unwilling to talk more.

What he said was that Song Changming helped Meng Jianli when he just took office in Fengcheng.

Song Changming was not sure whether what the other party said was sincere or not. After all, it was their first meeting and conversation, and he didn't know much about this super strong man from aristocratic family.

But no matter what, Meng Yuan promised to help this time, and Song Changming didn't actually pay anything.

Whether the other party regretted it or not, he didn't lose anything.

Afterwards, the Meng clan members who arrived took over Fengcheng and let one person temporarily take over the position of the city lord, so as not to let the officials in the city be leaderless, and try to ensure the development and operation of Fengcheng, and avoid chaos.

When the new city lord transfer order is issued in the main city, the temporary city lord will be removed.

And Yang Zhen, Song Changming and others also received a notice from the military department and had to go back to report.

Also returning with them were Meng Jianli's family members, including Meng Shuxuan with the golden-winged Roc.

On the other side, the core area of ​​the main city, Zhao Mansion.

In a courtyard with pleasant scenery and great style, the atmosphere seemed particularly dull at the moment.

"Is Zhao Liang really dead?" An old man with disheveled hair walked into the courtyard, and an old voice came out.

"Meet the elder Zhao Lie."

When several people in the courtyard saw the old man coming, they all stood up and bowed.

This also included the contemporary Zhao family head, Zhao Boqi.

"Boqi, you tell me." Zhao Lie looked at the Zhao family patriarch with his hands behind his back.

Zhao Boqi sighed, his face solemn, and nodded: "It is true."

"I thought Zhao Liang would live to the end of his life." At this time, another old voice floated in from outside the courtyard.

Looking carefully, it was another white-haired old man who came in.

"Meet the elder of the Lei clan." Everyone in the courtyard bowed and greeted respectfully.

"Boqi, how did that guy die?" Zhao Xinlei asked.

"He was killed outside." Zhao Boqi shared the information he got.

However, in just a few days, Zhao Boqi was able to learn about the fate of Zhao Liang and Zhao Zun, as well as a series of events that happened in between. It can be seen that the Zhao family's intelligence network is also quite powerful.

Of course, on the other hand, Zhao Liang brought Zhao Zun to Song Changming and the other two to settle accounts, and other people in the family actually knew about this.

However, on the surface, those who knew about this were giving Zhao Liang face and covering for him.

It was not until the news of Zhao Liang's death came back that they could not sit still and were summoned by the family one after another. Finally, the news reached the ears of the head of the family.

Zhao Boqi also knew the cause and effect of this matter.

"Hmph, an old bone, really useless, can't even beat a junior, but lost his life, bringing shame to the family, and the crime is even more serious!"

Another gust of wind blew, and I don't know when the third old man appeared in the courtyard. He spoke sharply and was not polite to the dead.

"Meetings, Elder Tong!"

When the younger generations of the family saw the tall and thin appearance of the visitor, their hearts jumped heavily.

Sure enough, this matter would alarm this elder!

From the changes in the expressions of these Zhao's younger generations, it can be seen that the third elder who appeared has a greater prestige in the family.

"This time, let the descendants of Zhao Liang bear the responsibility for the crime, and don't let them off lightly!" Zhao Butong said this, his eyes fell on the head of the family, Zhao Boqi, obviously speaking specifically to him.

Zhao Boqi took a few steps forward and didn't agree as he did in the past, but shook his head and sighed: "His son Zhao Zun also died this time."

"Zhao Zun? I have some impression that he seems to be Zhao Liang's most proud son." Zhao Lie thought about it and recalled Zhao Zun's appearance in his mind.

"Zhao Zun is also dead? This is really." Zhao Xinlei didn't know what to say for a while.

If Zhao Linxin, who died a few years ago, is added, the most important direct bloodline of Zhao Liang's lineage has died in just a few years.

Even Zhao Butong, the elder of the clan who was most dissatisfied with Zhao Liang, gave up the idea of ​​blaming him for a while when he learned about this, and asked in a deep voice.

"Who did it?"

"The same person, the commander of the 41st flag army in the army, Song Changming." Zhao Boqi said in a deep voice.

"Commander?" The wrinkles on Zhao Xinlei's face became deeper and more lined.

"Even if Zhao Liang was not good enough, he would not be killed by a commander in the army. This doesn't make sense. Is there any other hidden story?" The elder Zhao Lie questioned.

"To be honest, when I first heard the news, I couldn't believe it, but this is the fact. The information from many sources is the same. It is basically correct!" Zhao Boqi said with some difficulty.

In the courtyard, Zhao Juchang, a senior deacon who had been standing with his hands down, suddenly spoke up at this time.

"Master, several elders, according to the latest news, the team that the commander is in is already on the way back to report."

Seeing that the big guys in the family all looked over, Zhao Juchang paused and then asked.

"Should we intercept and kill him so that he can't return to the main city directly?"
