"Mr. Geng, I'm sorry, we have no obligation to cooperate with you."
"Yes, we have checked ourselves and have not had any interactions with Xia Houxi."
"Fellow Daoist Geng, none of the forces in our Kingdom of the Rising Sun have ever come into contact with Xia Houxi. However, some people did see Xiahou Xi a few hours before he came out. However, Xiahou Xi is mysterious and seems to still avoid him.
Everyone’s eyes and ears.”
"Fellow Daoist Geng, please be more open. At events with thousands of people, there will always be some surprises."
Anyway, if it didn't happen to you, no one would care too much about it. A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. This is the reality of the martial arts world.
When someone else dies, it's their business and it's not their turn to worry about it. It's impossible for them to worry about it, and they might even rejoice in their misfortune.
After all, the relationship between the ten major divine kingdoms was not harmonious to begin with. The competition and conflicts between them made the relationship between them very delicate.
Therefore, when it comes to Xia Houxi's death, many people in the ten major divine kingdoms actually have a spectator mentality.
Just like when I heard that the three major families of the Kingdom of God were ruined on Dongyan Island, it was regarded as a joke in the circles of the ten major kingdoms of God.
Just when the scene was getting a little anxious, someone suddenly walked out of the crowd.
He timidly walked up to Elder Geng: "Senior Geng, when I came out just now, I saw a storage ring in the grass. I picked it up casually. I didn't know who it was, and I thought I had missed it. No.
Do you know this storage ring, right?"
"Bring it here and take a look." Geng Lao became anxious when he heard this.
The storage ring was lost on the ground. If it really belonged to Xia Houxi, it would have been a disaster, and there would even be no possibility of survival.
The man was obviously a child of a small power, and he tremblingly presented the storage ring. When Geng Lao saw the ring, his expression suddenly changed.
This is exactly the shape of the storage ring unique to the Xiahou family. When I held it in my hand, I saw that it was indeed Xiahou Xi's.
For a moment, Geng Lao's complexion changed drastically and he became furious.
"Who, who did this? If you have the guts, come forward! Coward, coward, you don't dare to cheat on someone who kills people. This is a coward? If you have the guts, stand up and show me?"
Geng Lao was so angry that he started to speak indiscriminately.
At this time, the most shocked person was Yan Qingsang. How long had he been out? He actually felt guilty for leaving brother Shao Yuan to face Xia Houxi alone. So he was very concerned. When he saw Jiang Chen coming out, he felt
It's also a joy.
But at this moment, all his joy turned into inner ecstasy and shock.
He quietly walked up to Jiang Chen and said, "Did you do it?"
Jiang Chen looked confused: "What? What are you talking about?"
Yan Qingsang was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and a strange smile escaped from the corner of his mouth, but he understood that Jiang Chen was pretending to be stupid. Although he was still shocked inside, Yan Qingsang did not ask any more questions, his expression returned to his natural state, and he did not continue to pester.
However, deep down in his heart, he felt extremely happy.
Xia Houxi was so arrogant that Yan Qingsang would be lying if he said he didn't hate it. If this guy died, Yan Qingsang would naturally applaud him.
He couldn't help but want to say to Yan Jinnan: "Is this the person you want to curry favor with? Are you going to kill him without any reason?"
However, on this occasion, Yan Qingsang said nothing.
Geng Lao was so angry that it was of no use. There were no clues, no intelligence, and no evidence. All the other contestants might be Xia Houxi's murderer.
And one thing is that the murderer was very cunning, and he could bear not to take Xia Houxi's storage ring, but chose to throw it away.
If someone picks it up, they might be able to pick it up.
Geng Lao glanced at the guy who handed over the storage ring. This guy was timid. No matter from any aspect, he didn't look like someone who could kill Xia Houxi.
He said to this person with a dark face: "What's your name?"
"The villain Yanqing."
"Okay, I understand. You can go down." Mr. Geng took back the storage ring, but he had no intention of expressing his intention.
Seeing this, the man didn't expect to get a reward from Mr. Geng, so he left in despair. He was afraid that if he left late, the old man might fall out with him.
Although Xia Houxi's death caused a huge stir, it was not as sensational as it was on Dongyan Island. After all, the affected area was too narrow, and the Lanyan Island Territory had also warned and reminded about this matter in advance.
Although the people of the Yan family were full of suspicion, they still looked respectful on the surface and did not dare to cause trouble to the Xiahou family at this time.
Under the leadership of Mr. He and Mr. Quan, the Yan family's team was also preparing to leave.
Yan Qingsang grabbed Jiang Chen and said, "Brother Shao Yuan, come with me."
Jiang Chen's original intention was to get close to the Yan family, so he just went with the flow: "Don't push and pull, just let you go."
Yan Qingsang chuckled and glanced at Yan Jinnan provocatively: "How about we go and identify who has gained the most now?"
"Who is afraid of whom?"
Jiang Chen quickly conveyed the message to Yan Qingsang: "Let him take it out first, and you take it out later. Don't expose all the good things. As long as you can defeat them."
Jiang Chen excavated nearly three hundred pieces of ancient jade rough stone. Jiang Chen speculated that as long as the number exceeds twenty, he can definitely defeat Yan Jinnan and others.
These people have no talent at all when it comes to ancient jade. It's strange that they can beat Yan Qingsang.
The Yan family soon found a shop that processed rough stones.
When Yan Qingsang harvested nearly fifteen stones, Yan Jinnan was completely defeated. Yan Jinnan harvested a large number of rough stones this time, but most of them were worthless waste.
On the contrary, I came across nearly ten pieces of rough jade containing rough jade. Unfortunately, these ten pieces of wild jade were developed with the same qualifications and were considered to be mid-grade at best.
The number of other people is not as great as that of Yan Jinnan.
Yan Qingsang, on the other hand, got a full fifteen pieces of rough stone with ancient jade. This data is naturally better than the other three.
In this way, there is no doubt that 30 million will be obtained.
Yan Jinnan and others cursed and cursed, but in the end they did not dare to default on their debts. After all, the family's family laws were very strict.
You can lose, but you can't lose gracefully.
Seeing Yan Qingsang gain so much, Mr. He and Mr. Quan were also very surprised. They looked at each other with a trace of suspicion in their eyes.
When they returned to the place where they were staying, the two old men immediately called Yan Qingsang.
"Qingsang, your results in this ancient jade excavation event are very good. Congratulations on your excellent performance and a reward of 30 million heavenly spiritual stones." Mr. He greeted.
"Haha, the methods of identifying ancient jade that Brother Shao Yuan taught me are indeed useful. They won't accept it even if they don't accept it. Mr. He, this Shao Yuan is a casual cultivator with a low background. He has always wanted to seek a position in the world. With his magical power
And this family has a long history, and it will definitely become famous all over the world in the future. Perhaps, our Yan family can use this person. What do you two clan elders think?"
Mr. He was surprised and said: "What you gained this time is really not luck? Is it because you relied on some methods he taught you to distinguish?"
"It's really not luck!" Yan Qingsang is very honest. A person can be successful for a day or two by relying on luck, but he cannot rely on luck alone for a lifetime.
"Okay, Mr. Quan, what do you think?" Facts speak louder than words, and Mr. He is now a little curious about the friend Yan Qingsang has made.
"This kind of talent, if he has no other intentions in approaching Qingsang, I think he can be used by our Yan family. Otherwise, with his ability, he will probably be taken seriously by other families." This is Quan.
My personal opinion.
"Qingsang, what did you originally plan to do?" Mr. He asked curiously.
"I originally wanted to invite him to hang out with me. But he has this ability. After this success, I always feel that if we don't retain him, it will be the biggest loss for our family in the future."
Yan Qingsang said.
The two clan elders looked at each other and waved their hands: "Qingsang, you go down first. This matter is of great importance and we need to discuss it carefully."
These two old men are both old foxes who have lived for a long time, so naturally they will not make decisions easily.
When Yan Qingsang walked out, Mr. He sighed: "This Yan Qingsang is a different kind of person in our family. He can't get along with the geniuses in the family, but he gets along well with a foreign casual cultivator. Moreover, I suspect that this kid has gained more than just what he brought out.
of these.”
"Forget it, the family doesn't stipulate that this harvest should be handed over to the public, so it belongs to him. If he really gets some chance to stand out, it will be the family's luck. To be honest, the geniuses in the family are more talented than
Qingsang is taller, there are many of them. But in terms of strength, mind, and courage, I think Qingsang still surpasses young people like Jin Nan." Mr. Quan also said.
"You think so too?" Mr. He was slightly startled.
Mr. Quan nodded and did not deny: "That's what I think. So, let's turn a blind eye to some things. I don't know where that kid came from?"
"Why don't we call your boy here, beat him, cross-examine him?" Mr. He suggested.
"It's okay to ask, but it's best not to cross-examine. Young people are arrogant. If they think we have a bad attitude, it may be counterproductive." Mr. Quan was more cautious.
Mr. He pondered for a moment, then nodded: "That's right. It would be really good if such talents could be used by my family."
After a while, Jiang Chen was called in.
He was also secretly happy, knowing that Yan Qingsang had probably revealed his intention to recruit him, and had even asked the elders of these two clans for instructions.
Now these two clan elders have summoned themselves together, probably to test their opinions.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen also cheered up.
"Haha, brother Shao Yuan, right? I just heard from Yan Qingsang that after learning your ancestral secret method, his ability to find ancient jade has improved. I didn't expect that brother Shao Yuan has such magical powers passed down from his ancestors. I was really shocked.
What a vision."
These were all polite words. Jiang Chen just nodded and smiled in agreement, but did not rush to express his position.
