Beixi Fang Mansion is also the city lord's palace of Beixi today. When Qiang Xie assumed the position of city lord a year ago, he renovated the Fang Mansion in all aspects. The current scale is more than a cup larger than before, but it is more luxurious than before.
The Dongfang Mansion seems too unsatisfactory.
The main hall of Fang Mansion is not located directly in the first building entering through the gate like Dongfang Mansion. Instead, it extends to the backyard separated by three buildings behind with a winding corridor. At this time, Fang Yuan is taking Dongfang Fan and Godson
Walking in the corridor of Fang's house, he proudly introduced the architecture of Fang's house as he headed to the main hall——
"The pillars of these corridors are all made of ebony. The value of ebony is among the best among woods. It took a lot of effort to select this batch of wood in the first place.
Fortunately, the border demon clan turned in a batch of ebony wood as circulation goods during that time, so our family bought all this batch of ebony wood at twice the price! But these are not worth mentioning, some are more interesting
The ornamental value is all in the back mountain. Although sister Xin'er came to Fang's house as a guest when she was a child, she doesn't know the changes in Fang's house in the past few years. Why don't I take you to visit Fang's house after discussing the matter with dad later?
." Fang Yuan was very afraid of Dongfang Fan, but as soon as he entered Fang's house, he felt relieved. Although he felt that Dongfang Fan was an eyesore, he could only ignore him as much as possible.
"Thank you Master Fang Yuan for your kindness, but Xin'er is not here for rewards this time. She only hopes to make the truth that should be made public known to the world clear." Long Xin'er declined again. There was only hatred in her resolute heart at this time, even if there was at last
A piece of pure spiritual land has been occupied by someone, and it cannot be shaken!
"It's true that I'm impatient. Please forgive me, sister Xin'er. There's no need to be so explicit in calling me. I'm older than you. If sister Xin'er doesn't mind, just call me Brother Fang." Fang Yuan was shameless.
It was thick enough, and Long Xin'er's two polite refusals could not make him retreat. At this time, he even wanted to shorten the distance between the two through a change of title.
"This... Mr. Fang Yuan is the son of the Fang family in Beixi City. Xin'er is just a commoner. He never dares to climb high. When he returns to Beixi this time, after many matters are investigated, Xin'er should return to Huaxia City and resign.
I surrender my free body and am willing to be a slave of Dongfang Mansion." Long Xin'er spoke firmly, Fang Yuan was stunned and unable to respond for a moment.
"It's Dongfang Fan again! It seems that this time it is necessary to use the power of the family to kill him..." Fang Yuan secretly had murderous thoughts in his heart, and while planning how to execute it, he took Long Xin'er and the two of them to the main hall of the Fang family——
Fang Xie, the new master of Beixi, is currently wearing a purple dragon, gold and phoenix martial robe with his back to the entrance of the main hall. He stands with his hands behind his back and sighs. His martial energy is strong but restrained, his body is extraordinary but not crazy, his blood is long but not old, and he is known as the Demon Spear.
, the power of the foundation made Dongfang Fan feel extremely vigilant when he saw this person's back: Fang Xie's strength was actually far superior to Ximen Wujian!
"Uncle Fang, Xin'er is late..." Long Xin'er saw Fang Xie's back, and suddenly it overlapped with the back of Long Batian in his memory. He was so moved by the scene and felt so much that his shoulders trembled.
Silent sobbing.
Fang Yuan saw the situation and thought it was a good opportunity, so he wanted to step forward to comfort him. Unexpectedly, Dongfang Fan stared at him with murderous intent, which frightened Fang Yuan who was eager to show off.
"Okay, it's good to be back. When you arrive at Beixi City, it means you are home. Although Brother Batian has already... our family will be your new home from now on! Yuan'er, go down quickly and arrange a banquet to welcome Xin'er.
Wash the dust! The person next to you must be the rumored descendant of the Sword Demon. Thank you very much for escorting Xin'er back to Beixi City safely. The Fang family should show their loyalty to the landlord. Fang and Xin'er have not seen each other for a long time.
In addition, some funeral matters of the Long family still need to be explained to Xin'er, I wonder if it is possible..." Fang Xie wanted to talk to Long Xin'er alone, Dongfang Fan thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Long Xin'er gradually calmed down from the sadness. The sadness shown by him and Fang Xie's lack of defense convinced Fang Xie that Long Xin'er knew nothing about the truth of the original Longmen murder case!
"Xin'er, don't be sad. I think Brother Ba Tian's spirit in heaven doesn't want to see you like this... It's a pity that I went out to patrol the border that day and couldn't get back in time... Otherwise... ugh!" Fang Xie looked self-blaming.
His expression and the originally stable aura on his body seemed a little chaotic at that moment.
"Uncle Fang, please don't say that. If the bad guys hadn't already planned against our Long family, it wouldn't be possible... Xin'er returned to Beixi City this time. She only hopes to get Uncle Fang's help to find out who killed our Long family.
The real culprit!" Long Xin'er looked resolute. Before setting off from Dongfang Mansion, Dongfang Fan once told her not to tell anyone about her knowledge of the real culprit, not even the closest people in the past.
Although Dongfang Fan did not tell Long Xin'er the reason for doing this, the latter accepted it without any doubt. She also believed that Dongfang Fan did this to help her achieve her ultimate goal, so she did not ask more questions.
"Xin'er, don't worry, our Fang family has no obligation to refuse in this matter! Over the past year, the Fang family has been exploring everywhere inside and outside the human race, collecting intelligence, and tracking down all possible murderers one by one. Although it is still not completely certain,
But we also have a focused target!" Fang Xie's tone dropped, and he stared at Long Xin'er solemnly, as if he was hesitant to speak.
"Key targets? Who are they? Tell me quickly!" Loong Xin'er felt flustered and eager to ask.
"Sigh... No, I can't tell you what I know yet... Xin'er, I hope you know that the strength and foundation that can destroy the Long family are definitely not something that you alone can compete with... If you don't have enough
Before you gain strength, please forgive Uncle Fang for not letting you take risks..." Fang Xie shook his head and sighed, with a deep expression in Long Xin'er's eyes that showed unbearability and suffering.
Long Xin'er felt a little dark in her heart. She recalled Dongfang Fan's attitude and knew that both of them were doing it for her own good. However, the uncontrollable hatred in her heart made her unable to devote herself to practice...
"However, Xin'er, you don't have to worry too much. I will continue to track down the real culprit and keep an eye on the suspects. During this period of time, you must continue to improve your level of strength. I believe you also want to
I will kill the enemy with my own hands... However, if the real murderer's strength is beyond my control, then I will take action!"
"In addition, there is one thing I must explain to you solemnly..." Fang Xie held a wooden box that was originally placed on the wooden table at hand in his palm. When the lid of the box was opened, there was a white jade seal——
"This is...?" Long Xin'er asked doubtfully.
"This is the seal of the Lord of Beixi City! It is the symbol of the Lord of the City! Xin'er, when the Long family was destroyed, I was guarding outside the pass, but before leaving the pass, I already learned from City Lord Zhu about the candidate for the next City Lord.
, this 'Beixi White Jade Seal' was originally a property of the Long family, if it weren't for... Sigh! After that, Beixi City had no owner, and was in turmoil for a while, and even evildoers from the demon clan infiltrated into the city.
With the power of Xicheng, I became the Lord of Beixi City. However, I have always known that this white jade seal belongs to the Long family. I keep it properly so that one day I can hand it over to you completely.
!”
"Xin'er, take the seal! Although Brother Ba Tian is no longer here, as a descendant of the Long family, you should take over as the lord of Beixi City!" Fang Xie held the seal with both hands and reached towards Long Xin'er with a smile on his face.
A "relieved" smile.
After hearing this, Longxin'er was stunned: Being a city lord? What's the use? If you can't take revenge, then even if you own the world, it means nothing!
"Uncle Fang, Xin'er is truly grateful for your kindness. It is God's will that the Long family has changed so much and failed to do its part for Beixi City. Uncle Fang can stand up and lead the soldiers at the moment of crisis and stabilize the turmoil. I believe in Daddy Quan
I will be happy if I know... Xin'er doesn't understand war, and has no desire to be the city lord. If this white jade seal is handed over to a junior like me, it will only plunge Beixi City into a panic without a leader... Therefore, Beixi City
Uncle Fang should continue to be the Lord of the city." Long Xin'er returned the white jade seal and expressed his intention directly.
"How can that be done! Since ancient times, Beixi City has been entrusted by the previous city lord with a white jade seal to determine the candidate for the next city lord. The appearance of this white jade seal in the Long Family must be a decision made by City Lord Zhu in advance. Brother Ba Tian
Although he has passed away, no one can take care of the White Jade Seal except for people from the Long family! Don't worry, Xin'er, Uncle Fang will assist you after he hands over the position of city lord. With your wisdom, it will be no problem to manage Beixi City!
"Fang Xie spoke righteously and insisted that Long Xin'er take over the White Jade Seal.
"Uncle Fang... Xin'er cannot accept this white jade seal under any circumstances. In this life, I have no other wish than to eliminate the blood feud between my family! Xin'er knows that Uncle Fang is doing it for my own good, and I also understand that you have your own principles of dealing with things...
If you insist, then Xin'er will announce to the residents of Beixi tomorrow that on behalf of the Long family, he will officially transfer the White Jade Seal and the position of city lord to the Fang family..." Long Xin'er shook her head insistently, it is absolutely impossible for her to take over the White Jade Seal.
.
"This... well, since you are so insistent, how can Uncle Fang force you... However, Uncle Fang has a request, and I hope you can agree to it, Xin'er." Fang Xie hesitated for a while, then compromised with a look of helplessness.
"Uncle Fang said, as long as Xin'er can do it, he will do his best!" Long Xin'er responded seriously.
"Haha, it sounds like Uncle Fang wants you to break into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den. It's like this. The engagement between Lin'er and Tianchuan... has become a pity that I can't witness the result... Now the Long family has been killed by an adulterer.
You have no fixed abode and no relatives. Now that you have returned to Beixi City, it is impossible for Uncle Fang to let you continue to go out in the wind and rain and let the bad guys take advantage of you! So... I hope you can marry into the Fang family!
Firstly, with the marriage between the two families, I have the responsibility to take over Baiyuyin; secondly, let Xin'er have a new family, and Uncle Fang will definitely treat you as his own daughter! Although Yuan'er is not yet mature enough,
, but he also belongs to the elite of his generation. If he fails you, Uncle Fang will never let him go under the demon gun!" Fang Xie said, staring at the stunned Long Xin'er, waiting for a reply.
"Marry into the Fang family...?" Long Xin'er's eyes were confused. Fang Xie had done her best for the Long family. Should she agree to this only request after losing her family?
At this moment, a proud figure appeared in Long Xin'er's mind, followed by familiar smiling faces, as if welcoming her home...
…
After Dongfang Fan left the main hall of Fang Mansion, Fang Yuan took him to the back garden for a tour, but the latter had to leave because of Fang Xie's order, so Dongfang Fan walked alone on the path in the back garden of Fang's house.
, but his heart was very uncertain: he firmly believed that Fang Xie would not take action against Long Xin'er, but it was unknown whether the other party would secretly do anything.
"I hope he can be more sensible...otherwise..." Dongfang Fan thought coldly. At this moment, a young woman waving a spear appeared on the lawn not far away...
