"Besides you, who else is qualified to take over Fangshan County? You are from a prominent local family and you are a master of bone refining. As long as you stand out in this matter, is there anyone more suitable than you? Of course, it is still difficult to get the position.
, but if you add in the credit for suppressing the rebellion, being recommended by famous families in Fangshan County, and the Cui family helping to operate in the city, then it won’t be a big problem." Qin Ziling said.
"Okay, I'll follow your elder brother's arrangements." Xiao Qing said.
Qin Ziling nodded, and the two of them discussed it again before going their separate ways.
…
Fang Changcheng, Xiao Family, meeting hall.
The head of the Xiao family, Xiao Wenchen, sits high on the head of the family. Below him sit the Xicheng school captain Xiao Wenyi, Xiao Qing's father Xiao Wenbai, as well as Xiao Anzheng and Xiao Anzhi, two clan elders and other core figures in the clan.
The atmosphere in the hall was solemn and depressing.
"Wen Bai, has there been news about Xiao Qing recently?" Xiao Wenchen asked.
"No..." Xiao Wenbai shook his head and replied.
"What's going on with Xiao Qing? It's been almost half a year. Even if she's worried that the Pang family is plotting against her and hiding her, she should have someone bring news from time to time! Is there something wrong?" the clan elder said.
Xiao Anzheng frowned.
As soon as Xiao Anzheng said this, the atmosphere in the hall became more solemn and depressing.
"It shouldn't be so. In Fangshan County, no one can keep her unless Pang Qiwei takes action himself." Xiao Wenchen shook his head.

"Hopefully!" Xiao Qing's father Xiao Wenbai sighed, and then said: "The most urgent task now is how to reply to Pang Qiwei?"
"It's difficult! Last night, Sixianzhuang was bloodbathed by the Senluo Gang. No one survived. This matter has spread in the city and caused a great sensation. For this matter, Pang Qiwei called me there early in the morning.
He gave me a severe reprimand and asked me to immediately send troops to exterminate the Senluo Gang. Otherwise, I would be held responsible for dereliction of duty and my post as Xicheng school captain would be removed.
Now the truth is on Pang Qiwei's side, and public anger is also great. As the captain of Xicheng, it is absolutely unjustifiable for me not to send troops to annihilate the Senluo Gang. However, the terrain of Yunluo Lake is extremely complicated, and all the five water ghosts of the Senluo Gang are not only
He is powerful, well versed in the nature of water, and cunning like a fox. If he really wants to send troops, he will definitely lose his troops and his generals.
If losing troops and generals can wipe out the Senluo Gang, it will be worthwhile. The problem is that it is very likely that we will lose troops and generals and return without success. In the end, not only our Xiao family will lose men, but also I, the Xicheng captain
I still can't keep my position." Xiao Wenyi said with a sad face.
"Hmph, this Pang Qiwei is obviously repeating his old tricks. He wants to remove Wen Yi just like Lu Jianhui was removed from the post of East City Colonel, so that our Xiao family will lose the power to control the army." Xiao Anzhi, the clan leader, said gloomily.
Face said.
"But now the public is very angry, and justice is on Pang Qiwei's side again. Once Yu Hongshan is gone, he basically has the final say in Fangshan County. On this matter, it is difficult for us to go against him in both ways as we did before!
"Xiao Wenchen said, at a loss.
"Uncle, don't you think this matter is a little strange? In the other three city gates, bandits have not been so rampant recently, but the Senluo Gang attacked Si Xianzhuang at this time, and they insisted on massacring them.
The whole Xixianzhuang! Could it be that the Senluo Gang feels that they are too leisurely at Yunluo Lake, so they must force the government to send troops to exterminate them?" At this moment, a Qingyue voice sounded at the door of the meeting hall.
"Xiao Qing!" Everyone in the meeting hall stood up with surprise on their faces.
Xiao Qing, dressed in white, walked in unhurriedly.
She is pure and pure, with a calm expression, and a detached and cold temperament that makes people dare not offend her.
Xiao Qing walked through the hall, and then Shi Shiran sat on the chair placed on the right side of the upper square table, side by side with the head of the family, Xiao Wenchen.
"Xiao Qing, you are finally back. You haven't even heard from you in the past six months. My father, your mother, and all your uncles are very worried about you!" Xiao Wenbai said.
"I'm sorry to trouble you all, father, but if you don't reach the realm of bone refining, even if you come back, you'll have to be tied up and huddled in the Xiao Family Fort all day long. What's the point of that?" Xiao Qing said lightly.
As soon as Xiao Qing said this, the entire hall fell silent instantly.
After a while, the whole hall exploded like dynamite being ignited.
"Bone refining! Xiao Qing, you have actually done bone refining! You are only twenty-five years old this year, a twenty-five-year-old great martial artist!"
"God is wise, our Xiao family finally has another great bone refining master!"
"There is hope for the rise of our Xiao family, there is hope!"
"..."
In the meeting hall, everyone's faces were full of excitement, and two elderly clan elders even burst into tears.
Seeing the excitement of everyone in the meeting hall, Xiao Qing felt very complicated.
Without Qin Ziling's appearance, she would have been given away as a concubine, but now, she has become the hope of the Xiao family's rise!
Moreover, the extremely excited Xiao family did not know that she was not only a great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining, but her real combat power was already close to that of a great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining.
After a long time, the meeting hall gradually calmed down.
"Xiao Qing, what did you mean when you first came in? Is there an internal conspiracy behind the Senluo Gang's bloodbath at Sixian Village?" Xiao Wenchen asked.
"The Senluo Gang is actually a vicious wolf secretly raised by Pang Qiwei. They are bloodbathing Sixian Village at this time to lure our Xiao family soldiers to Yunluo Lake. Fortunately, Yunluo Lake teamed up with people from the Nether Sect to ambush us and kill our people.
All stay in Yunluo Lake. Not only will our Xiao family's vitality be severely damaged, but we will also be accused of failing to suppress bandits, and the post of Xicheng school captain vacated by the third uncle will also be taken away by the Pang family."
Qing replied.
"Hi!" Everyone took a deep breath when they heard this.
"Xiao Qing, how did you find out?" After a while, Xiao Wenchen asked with a gloomy face.
"After the Senluo Gang bloodbathed Si Xian Villa, they still refused to stop and led people to Shuiyue Villa overnight. As a result, I and the people from Shuiyue Villa were intercepted and captured on the way," Xiao Qing replied.
"My father is indeed the work of the old thief Pang Qiwei who colluded with the Netherworld Sect! If I don't kill Pang Qiwei and avenge my father's murder, how can I, Xiao Wenyi, have the dignity to live in this world!" Xiao Wenyi said with a face full of grief and anger.
"Pang Qiwei is not only a great bone-refining martial artist, but also the governor of Fangshan County. Behind him is the Pang family of Zhoucheng. How easy is it to kill him?" Xiao Anzheng shook his head.
"Yes, even now Xiao Qing is already a great bone-refining martial artist and has the strength to rival Pang Qiwei, but Pang Qiwei is a veteran great martial artist, and his identity and the power behind him are very important. Not to mention that it is almost impossible to kill him.
Even if he is lucky enough to be killed, the Xiao family will probably be destroyed soon!" Xiao Anzhi, the elder of the clan, shook his head and said.
"Are we, the sons, supposed to know that Pang Qiwei is the enemy who killed our father, yet still have to endure the humiliation and survive? The worst case scenario is that our Xiao family will also betray Da Qi and join Wang Lang like Yu Hongshan." Xiao Wenyi said.
"Nonsense!" Xiao Anzhi slapped the armrest of the chair when he heard this and glared: "Do you want to put the entire Xiao family into a situation of no return?"
The hall fell silent instantly.
The atmosphere became solemn and depressing again.
