The birthday banquet was lively and lively, but also very hypocritical.
Most of the people who come to the banquet wear "false masks". You compliment me and I flatter you, but in fact, you despise each other in your heart and will never hesitate to stab you in the back if you have the opportunity.
This is a circle, full of intrigues and intrigues.
Zixun stayed away from the business circle for two or three months and seemed to have lost interest in doing business. Even if she saw someone who was probably a noble person in the business world, she would just watch with cold eyes and stay next to Ye Kai with peace of mind. Either she was thinking about her brother
The hope of survival, or you are thinking about what you will go through if you go to the Xuanming Clan to inherit the mantle of high priest, and whether you can succeed?
Or even, when the day comes when you successfully inherit the mantle, can you and your little brother... be a real couple?
"Oh, what was I thinking? I'm really not ashamed!" Zi Xun secretly blamed himself, and then put the blame on Ye Kai. Humph, it must be my younger brother's impatience that has been passed on to me, bad guy.
Then, Ye Kai felt a pain in his waist and was pinched.
But he felt baffled. He was just standing to get something to eat. Didn't he offend anyone?
Time passed by, and for Ye Kai, there was only two words: boring!
He even hoped that Zijian would stand up and have a fight with him, so that he would have an excuse to have some friction with the Zi family, or even have a complete falling out. At that time, he could attack without restraint without having to burden Zixun with the moral responsibility of the people.
shackles.
But, no.
"Biliu, protect Xunxun, I'll go for a walk." Ye Kai said to Jiang Biliu.
Then weaved through the crowd and slipped into the backyard when no one was paying attention.
Since I agreed to Zou Yining's investigation of the case, I had to do something. At least, first check whether there was a prison cellar or the like in the Zi family manor.
With his speed, no one in this manor could notice him.
However, the missing child was not found.
After walking around for a while, I found that the guests had already begun to leave.
Later he learned that Zi Hongzhen ended the banquet early because he was not feeling well.
"Brother, Sanniang just called me and asked us to attend a discussion meeting." Zi Xun whispered to Ye Kai.
"good!"
The so-called discussion meeting is actually a simple information meeting.
Zi Hongzhen came forward in person, and his face didn't look too energetic, and he didn't feel uncomfortable at all. At the same time, Ye Kai discovered that in addition to many ancient warriors, there were also practitioners who attended the meeting.
They are all generally low-level, and none of them exceeds the Yuan Dynasty realm, so there is nothing to worry about.
Ye Kai listened and generally understood——
The Zi family discovered a mysterious valley five years ago, which contains many spiritual herbs and elixirs that practitioners are eager to obtain, and there may even be treasures.
Even practitioners long for it, and it is even more of a dream for ancient warriors.
However, there is danger in that place, not only monsters, but also some strange things.
Five years ago, the Zi family organized people to go into the valley and got some spiritual herbs. They did not use them to make elixirs, but took them directly, which also greatly increased their own skills. Many of their disciples even became qualified to practice and were accepted into the Kunlun Sect.
.
However, that valley is very magical, and there are restrictions outside the door, so it is generally impossible to enter.
The Zi family studied for a long time and finally came to the conclusion that the restrictions in the valley are sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and recently it was the time when the restrictions were at their weakest. As long as they use some tricks, they can enter again.
When Zi Hongzhen said this, everyone except Ye Kai and the others showed excited expressions.
After hearing this, everyone understood.
The Zi family discovered the mysterious valley and knew that there were countless spiritual materials hidden in it, but they did not tell them about the Kunlun Gate, which was the backer behind it. It is understandable if you think about it. The Zi family and the Kunlun Gate are incomparable. Once the people from the Kunlun Gate go in and get the spiritual materials,
Materials or even other treasures, at most the Zi family would be given some leftover soup to drink; more likely, just a few bottles of Qi Replenishing Pills would be enough, and the Zi family would not dare to rebel.
Therefore, in addition to summoning the clan members who were cultivating at Kunlun Gate in the name of the family leader's birthday, the Zi family also invited many less powerful helpers, promising benefits, and everyone went in together.
To put it bluntly, the Zi family is not strong enough on its own and needs to rely on others.
Ye Kai thought carefully about why the Zi family would think of calling him here, and came to the conclusion that the Zi family knew that he had half an innate cultivation level and was qualified to be cannon fodder, and Zi Tian became involved.
His reason; because Zixun cares about her brother very much, and once she gets the news that his brother may not be dead, she will definitely find a way to save him. So, as a boyfriend, Ye Kai must not stand idly by.
"The strategy is good, but unfortunately, the Zi family seriously underestimated my strength!"
"When the time comes, it won't be certain who will be the cannon fodder and who will have the last laugh."
Jiang Biliu secretly sent a message to Ye Kai: "Sir, from what they said, it's a bit like a small world. I don't know what's going on inside. If there are abundant resources and spiritual energy, then we have found a treasure this time."
Ye Kaidao: "Not necessarily, but since you have the opportunity to participate, you might as well go and take a look."
The conditions offered by the Zi family were very fair. The Zi family took 50% of the money and the remaining 50% was shared equally among the outside gang.
After all, the Zi family discovered the place.
"How's it going? Is this condition I've given you fair?" Zi Hongzhen asked with a smile.
No one objected.
The matter was settled like this, and the time was chosen three days later.
During these three days, everyone can make preparations first.
After the meeting, Zi Hongzhen stopped Zi Xun alone, and his grandpa and granddaughter had a brief exchange. During the whole process, Ye Kai secretly watched with clairvoyance, ready to take action at any time. Who knows if Zi Hongzhen recognized him?
With his identity, if he uses his granddaughter as a threat, he will be drunk.
Fortunately, Zi Hongzhen did not do anything inappropriate.
When he came out, he smiled and patted Ye Kai on the shoulder: "Young man, you are not bad!"
Ye Kaixin sneered, maybe in his heart, he was nothing more than cannon fodder, and when the time came to go in alive, he would not come out.
Zixun waited for Zi Hongzhen to leave, and immediately said excitedly: "Brother, I just heard him say that it seems that my brother may really be alive. He may still be alive. If this is the case, can we save him?"
Ye Kai glanced at the wall in front. In front of Immortal Phoenix, Zi Hongzhen's voice and shadow standing behind the wall could not be escaped. He even saw a cruel smile on the corner of his mouth.
He nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue him. Let's go back first and come back in three days."
After leaving Zi's house, the three of them planned to return to the villa in City S to stay temporarily.
However, before they had gone far, a bearded man blocked their way.
One look...
Hey, I know the person we had a meeting with just now, a cultivator in the early stage of the Yuandong Realm.
Ye Kai frowned and asked, "Is something wrong?"
The man smiled: "It's a bit, little brother, to be honest, I am from the world of cultivation. Today I saw that your female companion has very good qualifications, so I came here specifically to give her a good fortune and accept her as my disciple.
"
He said and pointed at Zixun.
"Accept her as your disciple?" Ye Kai's eyes instantly turned cold, "What sect do you belong to?"
"I am a member of the Hehuan Sect."
A burst of anger rushed directly to Ye Kai's head, and Hehuan Sect accepted him as a disciple, because he saw that Zixun had the Nine Yin Mysterious Vein and wanted to turn her into a cauldron.
"Hehuan Sect, I am disrespectful and disrespectful. I also plan to give you a fortune... and send you to be a brother to the King of Hell!"
"boom--"
After Ye Kai finished speaking, he struck out like lightning, without using any martial arts, and slapped the man on the head with his palm.
