White snow was flying, and the cold wind roared unbridled in the void.
Looking from a distance, Luoxia City seems to be shrouded in a white gauze, making it look a bit out of place.
Snowflakes were still flying, and bursts of noise came from the manors of the major families in Luoxia City, almost presenting a lively scene.
The Ximen Family, a thousand-year-old family in Luoxia City, has a history no less than that of the Ye family. At this moment, in the attic deep in the Ximen Family's manor, figures inside were shaking.
The Ximen Family has gradually faded away from the top families in Luoxia City over the past few hundred years, but its strength is no less than that of an ordinary second-level family.
A little white gas came out of the stove, and the whole house seemed extremely quiet. Occasionally, the sound of wood exploding could be heard.
The leader was clearly the head of the Ximen Family, Ximen Chuiyu, with two sword eyebrows on his face that stood out as if carved out of sculpture.
The people sitting below are actually the heads of other aristocratic families in Luoxia City. Looking up from a distance, there are dozens of figures, which means that the aristocratic families here actually occupy two-thirds of Luoxia City.
The atmosphere in the entire room was slightly silent, and the faces of the heads of the small aristocratic families were full of worry, and they looked eagerly at the leader, Ximen Chuiyu.
A few moments later, Ximen Chuiyu's slightly thick voice suddenly sounded: "You mean he's back?"
Hearing this, Mo Ri, the head of the Mo family who was sitting in the second seat, stood up, with a trace of worry on his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice: "Yesterday evening, the spies sent back news that in the evening, there were hundreds of people riding wind horses.
The men in black rushed to the Ye family from the city gate. The expressions of those men in black were black cloaks and silver masks. As we all know, they are the secret guards of the Ye family!"
The Secret Guards! Those machines that kill without blinking an eye! After Mo Ri mentioned the Secret Guards, he clearly felt that the atmosphere in the room was getting tighter. After a pause, he continued: "As you all know, a few days ago,
Xuantian Sect, Ziyang Sect and Lei Dong Sect were all destroyed by the secret guards led by Ye Chen. Now that the secret guards have returned, Ye Chen must have returned to the Ye family, which means that Ye Chen is now in Luoxia City!"
Ye Chen! As soon as the name came out, the faces of everyone in the room changed slightly. Almost at the same time, everyone felt a chilling atmosphere, as if the name Ye Chen represented endless killing.
Everyone is extremely against this name, but they cannot ignore it. This name represents the fall of dozens of Qi Martial Realm warriors and the tragic death of several lives.
The person Ximen Chuiyu was talking about was naturally referring to Ye Chen. Hearing this, even Ximen Chuiyu frowned. He knew that even if he was at the second level of the Qi Martial Realm, he would have little chance against Ye Chen.
The atmosphere in the room became more and more silent, and Mo Ri's face also showed a trace of worry. He shook his head helplessly, sat down and said nothing again.
There was a deathly silence in the house, and the crackling sound of the wood sounded so harsh to everyone's ears at this moment.
There was even a trace of fear on the faces of those small aristocratic family heads, and they were filled with regret as to why they joined this stupid chamber of commerce out of greed for profit. However, how regretful they were in their hearts, at this moment, they were thinking about how to survive the disaster in front of them. At this moment, they
Only then did they remember that the Lei Dong Sect was destroyed. They were not so naive as to think that the evil star would kindly let them go.
"Will that evil star destroy our entire clan?" At this moment, a family head from an aristocratic family booed and asked another family head next to him.
Although this voice was low, it seemed extremely clear at this moment. Hearing this, the heads of various aristocratic families showed worries. With so many people dying at the hands of the evil star, would the evil star mind more?
"He won't do that! If he kills the aristocratic families present, it will definitely cause panic among the aristocratic families in Huangfeng. At that time, even if the Ye family is powerful, they may not be able to cope with the siege of many aristocratic families!" Jian Mei frowned slightly, and Ximen Chuiyu felt the same in his heart at this moment.
He was so worried that he had to say it bravely, but his words had a comforting effect, and the heads of the aristocratic families could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Haha, it's just the Kazuye family, you are so scared, it's ridiculous!" Suddenly, a slightly mocking voice suddenly sounded in the house, and the person who made the voice was a young man standing in front of the door, with his back leaning against the door.
There was a leaf hanging from the corner of his mouth, and the long hair draped over his shoulders could not hide the young man's handsome face. At this moment, there was a trace of ridicule in the corner of the young man's mouth, and he looked at the people in the room with mocking eyes. At the same time, in
Under the gaze of everyone, the young man walked to the empty seat next to Ximen Chuiyu and sat down without even looking at Ximen Chuiyu.
The head of the aristocratic family, who originally looked slightly angry, couldn't help but smile apologetically when he saw the visitor, and at the same time there was a hint of flattery on his face.
On the contrary, Ximen Chuiyu's expression did not change at all, he looked at the young man beside him, cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if Mr. Situ has a way to solve this?"
Situ, this surname is quite famous in Huangfeng Kingdom, especially in the Imperial Capital of Huangfeng Kingdom, because the Situ family is one of the four major families there, and the young man in front of him is the Situ family sent to assist Luoxia City this time.
When Situ Yun, a member of the aristocratic family, heard this, he did not answer Ximen Chuiyu directly, but asked directly: "Then Ye Chen is really as scary as you said!"
Situ Yun is now in his early twenties, but his cultivation cannot be underestimated at all. He is already at the second level of Qiwu and is also a very famous genius in the Situ family.
Hearing this, many heads of the aristocratic families couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake their heads. With their sophistication, they could naturally hear the dissatisfaction in Situ Yun's words. They all shook their heads secretly. You, Situ Yun, are quite powerful, but in Ye Chen's eyes, you might not be able to do anything.
No, thinking about this, everyone couldn't help but be shocked again by Ye Chen's abnormal talent. Seeing this, Ximen Chuiyu also smiled bitterly and said: "It's extremely scary!"
Situ Yun was obviously dissatisfied with this answer. He raised the corner of his mouth with disdain and said proudly: "With our Situ family supporting you all, even if Ye Chen dares to attack you, how can our Situ family ignore you? Don't worry, if Ye Chen
If Chen dares to attack other aristocratic families in Luoxia City, then our Situ family will definitely attack the Ye family!"
As a child of a family in the imperial capital, Situ Yun has always had some disdain for the children of aristocratic families in other cities, just like nobles have disdain for common people. Even though the strength of the Ye family is good, in Situ Yun's opinion, it is only good. Compared with the Situ family
There is still a certain gap, which is why Situ Yun dared to say so.
Hearing this, all the heads of the aristocratic families present had a look of ecstasy on their faces. With Situ Yun's assurance, they would not be afraid of the Ye family.
Even Ximen Chuiyu's face also showed a hint of joy. In today's Luoxia City family, the Ximen family's power is second only to the Ye family. Ximen Chuiyu has long coveted the major cities controlled by the Ye family. Not only that
, Ximen Chuiyu has a greater ambition in his heart, which is for the Ximen family to replace the Ye family and become the overlord of Luoxia City.
Suddenly, a hurried sound came from outside the door, followed closely by a hurried figure.
Seeing that figure, Ximen Chuiyu frowned slightly and scolded: "Ximen Chuiyu, this is an important place and no one can come in without my permission. Don't you know?"
Ximen Chuixiao, Ximen Chuiyu's eldest son, usually has a very serious temper, but now he is acting in such a hurry, which undoubtedly disappoints Ximen Chuiyu.
At this moment, Ximen Chuiyu ignored his father's scolding, walked in, and said to Ximen Chuiyu: "Father, it's bad, the flow of people in the family's major markets has dropped sharply, and it is already less than 30% of the past!"
"Why, the Ye family has also started to reduce the payment fee!" Hearing this, Ximen Chuiyu Jian's eyebrows frowned slightly, then relaxed, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyebrows. The Ye family finally couldn't hold on any longer!
Not only Ximen Chuiyu showed joy, but other aristocratic families were also so happy. Seeing this, Ximen Chuiyu couldn't help but said anxiously: "The Ye family has not lowered the payment fee!"
Hearing this, everyone felt something was wrong. Even Situ Yun rarely laid his eyes on Ximen Chuixiao.
At this moment, the situation is urgent. Ximen Chuixiao ignores the calmness he should have in the past and informs everyone about the situation that happened in Dafang City. He will also inquire about the news in Yejiafang City and inform everyone, especially the lower level of the Ye family.
As for the sale of swords, most of the traffic now flows into the market controlled by the Ye family.
Although the sound of Ximen playing the flute was a bit urgent, the people present could hear it clearly. When Ximen finished playing the flute, the whole place fell into a deathly silence.
The worry that just disappeared from everyone's faces reappeared on everyone's faces...
