Finally, even the head of the Zhao family shouted indignantly: "Come to think of it, I, Old Zhao, and Lord Feng Dacheng are old friends!"
"I didn't expect, I didn't expect, that he would actually do such a dirty thing of betraying his credibility and harming his old friends! If I can't get back the "Qi Mu He Spiritual Skill" today, Zhao will never give up!"
Previously, Feng Jinyu thought he had a clever plan and asked Feng Yue to "borrow" books from the four major families in his name, and promised to return them within one day.
If not, the compensation will be doubled.
He never thought that his pursuit of Chen Shen would result in the death of all the senior officials of the Feng family, including Feng Jinyu himself, the lord of the city.
Those four skills and mysterious skills also completely "disappeared" with Feng Jinyu's death.
In the past two days, the four major families sent people to the City Lord's Mansion many times to express their intention to return the book in a "gentle" way.
However, the whereabouts of all the senior officials of the Feng family were unknown. Suddenly, in the huge city lord's mansion, not even a single person who could take charge of the family could be found.
In the end, it was the housekeeper's old slave who came out and spoke, asking the people of the four major families to wait a little longer. When the city lord comes back, he will definitely solve the problem himself.
This wait lasted another day and night.
If it was just a credit of several hundred thousand gold, there would be no need to quarrel with the lord of the city.
However, what the four major families lost were their unique ancestral skills and mystical skills! This was related to the future of their entire family, how could they be careless?
Everyone endured it again and again, and finally on the third day, they couldn't bear it anymore, so they came to the gate of the city lord's palace to cause trouble, and the resentment they had been holding in their hearts for several days completely burst out.
Right now, chaos is erupting.
The four major families in Qianxu City have even begun to storm the city lord's palace and force out Feng Jinyu...
In addition to these four major families, Qianjia City also has a transcendent force - the Qianjia family who were severely injured due to civil strife five hundred years ago and migrated here.
At this moment, Qian Minghai, the head of the Qian family, was standing proudly on top of a towering building.
He raised his eyes to look at the scene of riots in the city lord's palace, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and his eyes were filled with an unpredictable splendor...
Qian Minghai is over middle-aged, but he has a handsome appearance, quite like a Confucian gentleman, and his strength is even stronger than Feng Jinyu, a four-star Xuan Master.
At this moment, he stared at the riot scene in front of the city lord's palace, and the corner of his mouth traced a playful arc: "Haha... It seems that the power system of Qianlong City is about to undergo a big change."
Half a step behind this middle-aged man, there is a pretty girl, standing tall and graceful.
If Chen Shen were here, he would definitely recognize this person at a glance - isn't she Qian Miaoling, the second place winner in the Dan Hall competition during the Hundred Schools League?
The quiet girl licked her cherry-red lips and spoke softly: "Father, do you want me to replace you?"
Qian Minghai nodded slowly: "The illusion of civil strife deliberately faked five hundred years ago has deceived everyone, but for so many years, generations of ancestors of the Qian family still have not been able to find the legendary Coiling Dragon Blood Jade.
"
"My Qianjia has been dormant in Qianjia City for so many years, and it's time to make a sprint. In the past, I just suffered from not finding the right opportunity."
"Nowadays, there are only ten senior members of the Feng family, and it will be difficult for the royal family to find someone to replace the Feng family in the short term. The four major families in Qianxu City are not yet qualified to be the masters of a first-level city."
"Inferring from this, the throne of city lord this term belongs to me!"
"After becoming the lord of a city, my family will have absolute say in this area. Things that were inconvenient to do before can be done in the future!"
Speaking of this, Qian Minghai suddenly smiled: "Speaking of which, I really want to thank that boy Chen Shen. If he hadn't killed Feng Jinyu, I, Qianjia, would definitely not have dared to take risks with my own life..."
Qian Miaoling was silent for a long time before speaking again: "But, Huainan King Xia Chunqiu..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Qian Minghai with a wave of his hand: "It doesn't matter! If you want to get the Coiling Dragon Blood Jade and revive the glory of the Qian Family, a branch of our Beast Refining Sect, you will naturally have to take some risks."
"Miao Ling, my father wants to ask you, is there really nothing wrong with what you saw on the Phoenix Eagle Beast that night?"
Qian Miaoling replied without hesitation: "It's absolutely true. That one-horned red-maned beast as red as fire must be the mount given to Chen Shen by the King of Great Xia during the Hundred Schools League."
Qian Minghai nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm... Okay, what a good general! No matter for whatever reason, he killed the imperial official, this is an indisputable fact. To us, this is also a
It’s not a big deal.”
"Make good use of this, Chen Shen, and even the entire General's Mansion, will be beneficial to us."
The girl was silent for a moment, then nodded gently: "My daughter knows what to do."
…
Who would have thought that the "civil strife" in Qianjia five hundred years ago was actually a deliberately disguised illusion?
Who would have thought that the once wealthy family of Daxia Kingdom actually had a hidden background of being a branch of the Beast Refining Sect?
Who would have thought that the reason why they chose to lie dormant in Qianxi City for many years was just to find the legendary Coiling Dragon Blood Jade?
For this reason, not only Huainan King Xia Chunqiu was involved, but even Chen Shen and the General's Mansion behind him may not be able to escape the fate of being exploited...
At this time, Chen Shen, who was thousands of miles away, had no idea that his execution of Feng Jinyu had been exposed.
This young man still gained experience as an eighteen bronze man, riding a red rabbit and killing monsters, while he sat cross-legged inside the sedan chair all day long, practicing the art of mysterious talismans.
Shun Lao and Ling'er focused on the newly acquired skills and studied them with great concentration.
When they encountered something they didn't understand, they went to ask Zhang Yidao or Lu Yijian for advice.
With these two great mystical masters guiding them, the progress of the two of them in transforming Qi and Shen Ling was extremely fast. It would not be an exaggeration to describe it as a thousand miles a day.
In comparison, Xiang Nanren was the most leisurely one. Fortunately, this woman had a cold nature and loved tranquility. Even if no one came to talk to her, she was happy and at ease.
The sun rises and the moon sets, the stars disappear and the stars emerge.
Three days have quietly slipped through my fingers.
At a certain moment——
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully advancing to the mortal level as a Nine-Star Mystic Talisman Master!"
"Ding! The host's success rate in refining a high-grade mortal-level mysterious talisman has been increased to 100%; and the host's success rate in refining a low-grade mysterious talisman in the mysterious-level is also 10%."
"Phew, there are nine stars in the Xuan level! There is only one step left to break through the mortal level and reach the realm of the Xuan level Xuanfu master. Keep up the good work!"
The young man had just cheered himself up. Unexpectedly, a sudden system prompt made him suddenly grimace——
"Ding! Warning: The energy in the Eighteen Bronze Man's body is on the verge of depletion. Please ask the host to replenish it with the Five Elements Spiritual Stone in time."
