Two thousand four hundred and sixty-one the precarious Song family
Huh...huh...
The breeze blowing from outside the south gate of Daolin City blew away the two handfuls of ashes on the ground, as if those two gate guards had never existed in the world.
Those present were at most just cultivators who had just entered the holy level. They did not even see when Yun Xiao made his move. The two city gate guards were burned to death in such a strange way, with no trace left.
Not a trace was left.
"As expected, he is a wanted person at the Imperial Palace Headquarters!"
At this moment, although these people did not dare to speak, there was a sense of awe deep in their hearts. This was a kind of awe for the strong, and they would not be made to do anything because of whether they were wanted by the Canglong Imperial Palace or not.
Wrong judgment.
Regardless of whether Yun Xiao, who killed the city gate guard, could escape the pursuit of the Canglong Imperial Palace, at least at the south gate of the city, he was respected today, and no one dared to say anything more.
And in the minds of some people, this person's strength is probably a bit more powerful than that of the Imperial Palace Commander in Daolincheng. The method just now may not be possible even by the Imperial Palace Commander at the peak of Huaxuan Realm.
It can be displayed.
Especially the stalwart man who had narrowly escaped death, his eyes shone with a kind of excitement, secretly thinking that his precarious family might be changed forever because of this young man's arrival in Daolincheng.
Just burning and killing two city gate guards at the peak of Tongtian Realm, Yun Xiao didn't care at all. If these two guys didn't want to frame good people indiscriminately, he wouldn't even be interested in taking action against these two people.
"It's time to fight back!"
Holding the wanted notice from the Canglong Emperor's Palace in his hand, Yun Xiao murmured when he saw the four portraits on it. He didn't care about the grateful gaze of the sturdy man next to him, and strode directly towards the city gate.
Everyone looked at the thin figure in rough clothes in awe, but none of them noticed the flash of black light in Yun Xiao's eyes, or the flash of black light in the eyes of a despicable guy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
It wasn't until Yun Xiao's figure had disappeared inside the South City Gate that everyone heard crisp sounds coming from their ears. When they turned their heads and took a look, everyone had a look of horror on their faces.
I saw that the short guy who had framed the strong man just now was raising his hands and slapping his own cheeks. This self-slapping behavior undoubtedly made people feel even more weird and unpredictable.
"Is it Yun Xiao's trick again?"
Everyone saw that the five-short guy had no intention of stopping at all, and couldn't help but have a suspicion in their hearts. They secretly thought that no one except the young man named Yun Xiao could use such a strange method, right?
And everyone can also guess that the five short guys just said nothing and only wanted to please the Imperial Palace. They must have angered the rough-clothed boy and were not directly burned to ashes like the two city gate guards.
It's all good luck.
A moment later, after the five-year-old guy slapped himself dozens of times, all of his teeth flew out. His face was as swollen as a pig's head, and his original appearance was almost unrecognizable.
With his face swollen like this and his teeth blown out, it was natural that he could no longer talk nonsense. Perhaps this was the punishment Yun Xiao gave him, to make him remember and not to talk nonsense in the future, lest disaster come from his mouth.
"Ouch!"
Looking at the short guy who slapped himself with a feeling of relief, the sturdy man suddenly patted his head and immediately ignored the guy who had fallen to the ground and ran directly towards the city gate.
This sturdy man named Song Gu was originally a powerful figure in a large family in Daolincheng. This time the family suffered a great disaster, and he went to bring in reinforcements as a last resort.
Unexpectedly, the reinforcements did not move in, but they almost suffered an unreasonable disaster outside the south gate. At this moment, Song Gu thought of the family's crisis, and he didn't want to delay for even a moment. After entering the city, he rushed home directly.
"Brother, brother, I'm back!"
Song Gu, who hadn't arrived yet, shouted loudly when he ran to the door of the house, but there was no response, which made his heart sink slightly and he ran into the house faster.
Naturally, Song Gu knew his home very well, and he went straight to the most important hall. However, after running into the hall, he suddenly saw a black coffin parked in the middle of the hall.
"Brother, this...this is..."
Song Gu was really surprised. After scanning the people in the hall, he had already guessed some clues and choked up with a sad look on his face.
"Second brother, Baoer, he...he..."
Song Gu's eldest brother is named Song He, and he is the current head of the Song family. His cultivation has reached the middle stage of Huanxuan Realm. Compared to Song Gu who is half a step up to the Saint level, he is not even a bit stronger.
After getting the answer he had guessed in his heart, the sadness on Song Gu's face became even more intense, because he knew that Bao'er was his elder brother's most beloved son and his nephew who he treated like his own son. Now he died, and
How can we not be sad?
Although the head of the Song family has two sons, the youngest son Bao'er's talent is extremely amazing and he is the perfect candidate for the next generation of head of the family. At a young age, he has already shown that he is much more talented than his elder brother.
Song Gu didn't expect that what he would see when he came back was the coffin of his precious nephew. He couldn't help but punch his right palm, and there was a look of hatred in his eyes.
"Damn Hua family, do they really want to fight my Song family to the death?"
Song Gu had an impatient temper, otherwise he would not have said anything at the city gate, which almost made him unable to escape. At this moment, his anger was rising, and he wanted to seek revenge on the so-called Hua family.
"Second brother, now that the Hua family has taken refuge in the Imperial Palace, our Song family is no longer able to compete. They not only killed Bao'er, but also gave me a deadline for the Song family. Today is the last day.
If we don’t surrender, what awaits our Song family will be annihilation!”
The head of the Song family, Song He, seemed to be more calm than Song Gu after his son died. After all, he was the head of the family. He didn't think about himself, but he had to think about the whole family.
Nowadays, the annexation plans of the imperial palaces in major cities have been accelerated. The top forces cannot contribute, but the small families and sects in these cities have all been brought under their control under coercion and inducement.
However, this Song family is a tough one. Although the strongest member of the family is Song He, who is in the middle stage of Huaxuan Realm, he has always been cowardly and unwilling to obey the orders of the imperial palace.
Therefore, the Daolincheng Imperial Palace Director asked the Hua family, who had always had quarrels with the Song family, to take action. This was the last chance for the Song family, otherwise the next death would not be just Song Baoer.
"By the way, second brother, I asked you to go to the Liehe Wang family for help. What did they say?"
After Song He calmed down, he remembered something and couldn't help but ask, causing all the powerful figures in the Song family in the palace to turn their attention to Song Gu.
The Liehe Wang family can be considered a big family, and its patriarch's cultivation level is even better than that of Song He. More importantly, the head of the Wang family is the father-in-law of Song He, the head of the Song family.
In other words, Song He's wife was the biological daughter of the head of the royal family. The two parties had this relationship. Only at this critical moment did Song He send Song Gu to move rescue troops.
But when he saw that he and his second brother had been talking for so long, but no outsider showed up, Song He had actually guessed something, and his heart sank.
"Huh, back home... Mr. Wang cares about the safety of the Wang family and refuses to send anyone to help. He also said... He also asked the eldest brother to send the eldest sister-in-law back to Liehe as soon as possible, so as not to harm the Wang family!"
Speaking of this, Song Gu felt a little angry. If he hadn't been worried that his sister-in-law Wang was also present, he might have thought that the head of the Wang family was an old guy. This old guy simply didn't miss the old relationship at all.
Hearing Song Gu's angry words, the face of the Song family's mistress, Wang, changed, but the determination in her eyes became even stronger.
"Oh, this is human nature, but I think too much!"
Song He was not as angry as Song Gu. Instead, he shook his head slightly. Although he was disappointed in his heart, what he said was correct. Who dared to go against the Imperial Palace in the Nine Layers of Dragon Sky now?
If the Wang family helps, it will certainly allow the Song family to survive for a while, but if the Daolincheng Imperial Palace takes action, it will only involve one more family, and the final outcome will not be any different.
"Madam, what my father-in-law said is not unreasonable. You'd better pack up and go back to Hunting River!"
Suppressing the disappointment in his heart, Song He, the head of the Song family, turned his attention to his wife Wang. After saying these words, he suddenly felt an extremely violent aura emerge from her body.
"Song He, are you going to divorce your wife?"
Although Wang was a female, she was still a woman, and her eyes widened at this moment, making all the members of the Song family so angry that they did not dare to say anything, for fear of incurring the wrath of their mistress.
"Madam, why are you doing this?"
Song He, who was asked angrily by his wife, felt warm in his heart. However, after thinking about the outcome of the Song family, he did not want to implicate his wife. But when he said these words, the anger on Wang's face couldn't help but become more intense.
"I tell you Song He, since I, Wang Chunlian, have married you, I will be a member of your Song family for the rest of my life. Don't even think about kicking me away!"
The Wang family, whose real name is Wang Chunlian, shouted loudly, which made everyone in the Song family feel a little moved. They knew what the mistress's decision meant. It was blocking their last way of life.
"You all listen, from today on, I, Wang Chunlian, will have nothing to do with the Liehe Wang family. The worst I can do is die. Are you afraid that his Hua family will fail?"
What Wang Chunlian said next immediately moved the people of the Song family even more. This was not only to break away from the Liehe Wang family, but also to tie them to the Song family that was about to be destroyed.
