Dongping was shaken up and down. The tragedy that occurred at Tianlan Manor outside the capital city was the most deadly invasion by foreign monks in the entire Noble Phantasm world in the past thirty years.
Bai Baodong, the dean of Beichen Academy, was killed, resulting in the loss of four level 10 treasure phantoms, one level 10 combat tool, thirty-seven pieces of level 9 mechanical immortal armor, and more than 200 casualties.
Moreover, Tianlan Manor is outside the country and poses a great threat to the powerful people in Dongping.
The Bai family was very worried about this. They were busy directing the public opinion of the whole society to the invasion of foreign monks, so that the public would ignore their underground secrets in Tianlan Manor.
The people are easy to fool, and most of them follow what they say, but the dignitaries in the country are not easy to explain. The Zhao family is the leader, and the other two major families join in. They jointly attack the Bai family and ask about the secrets of Tianlan Manor.
The Bai family had no choice but to find ways to calm down their anger - for this reason, the head of the Bai family, Bai Bao'ou, was very angry. The four major families were doing what the Bai family was doing, but others were not caught, and the Bai family was caught.
The foreign monk had been killed on the spot, but Bai Baoou's hatred for him had not weakened at all, and he secretly regretted it. At this time, it seemed that trading with him was a good choice.
Now, there is only one piece of precious real gold left.
Tao Ziru is dead, but Song Zheng is still alive. He is still secretly controlling the two Bai family members - he is greedy for Mr. Song's gifts and wants to plot against him. How can the matter be solved so easily?
That's not how Long Yiwei does things.
…
In the video box of Dongping Kingdom, every channel was playing this news. Hua Zhan and Hou Ji also saw it. The tragic situation of Tianlan Manor reminded them almost immediately of the foreign monk who contacted them.
, the expressions on their faces flickered.
Hou Ji was in his office, looking at the tiny figures running about on the street one hundred and twenty floors down, and finally took a deep breath.
He knew that if he compromised with the Zhao family, he would be controlled by the Zhao family forever. Even after his death, the entire Hou family would become a vassal of the Zhao family.
But he now has too much, and the risk of colluding with the foreign monks is too high, not to mention that once discovered by the Dongping Kingdom, the Hou family will definitely be in disaster - judging from the Tianlan Manor incident alone, the foreign monks themselves
It's a huge danger.
He still didn't dare to take risks.
He personally dialed the Homophone Noble Phantasm, and after waiting for a moment, a majestic voice came from the other end: "Hou Ji."
"Mr. Zhao, do you have time? I have something very important to report to you."
A strange smile appeared on the corner of Mr. Zhao's mouth on the other end. How could he not notice that Hou Ji had been trying to break away from the Zhao family all these years? Hou Ji hadn't spoken to him in such a humble tone for a long time.
He said: "Wait a minute."
Bang! The Homophone Noble Phantasm was hung up, and Hou Ji felt uneasy. Once he decided to surrender completely, Mr. Zhao would truly have the power to decide everything about him. Any move made by the other party would make him think deeply for him.
He walked around in the office on the highest floor of the building, anxious. After waiting for a full hour, suddenly his homophonic treasure rang, and he quickly connected. It was Mr. Zhao's secret technique: "Tonight, I will
Qinglan Winery, you come alone, Mr. Zhao doesn't want to see anyone waiting around."
"yes."
The secretary didn't say what time it was, so he immediately set off and rushed to Qinglan Winery.
This is a very secret place in the capital with a profound background. There are only five courtyards in total, and only five waves of guests are received every day.
But Mr. Zhao didn't want to see any idle people waiting. When he arrived, he immediately invited the boss and asked for the contact information of the other four groups of guests tonight. Of course, those who can enter Qinglan Winery cannot be bullied casually.
Senior, he gave generous compensation, apologized to himself, and finally managed to persuade the other four guests to leave after exhausting himself.
Then, he let out a long sigh and waited quietly in the Qinglan Winery. It was late at night before Mr. Zhao's Noble Phantasm carriage quietly drove into the Qinglan Winery. Hou Ji's heart, which he had been holding on to, finally relaxed.
When Hou Ji rushed to Qinglan Winery alone in the afternoon, his driver's eyes were deep and he saw everything. Song Zheng sat in a room and secretly shook his head, knowing that he had lost Hou Ji's choice - this was
The price of his grudges at Tianlan Manor.
That incident will definitely trigger a series of subsequent reactions. People in this world have always been deeply wary of foreign monks. Tao Ziru's killing will definitely touch their sensitive nerves.
But if it were to happen again, Song Zheng would still do the same thing. Is it possible that he should be killed by leading him? This is not how Long Yiwei handles things, and Mr. Song will never be weak because of difficulties.
…
Hua Zhan bit his nails. He had this habit since he was a child. He would bite his nails when he was nervous.
When he was first admitted to Huajia, his biological father beat him severely for this problem. He slowly got rid of this problem, but when things really happened, his habit would still emerge involuntarily.
come out.
His mother is now pampered and living the life she has always dreamed of. The situation of her son Hua Zhan has never been a problem for her. As long as she has this son, as long as this son is recognized by the Hua family, it is enough. All she needs is her mother's credentials
If you have a noble child, you can live a life of fine clothing and fine food.
Hua Zhan knew that he could not discuss this matter with his mother. After much deliberation, he decided to go to his father. He did not have enough courage to trade with the foreign monks.
God knows, will he become the next Bai Baodong?
Late at night, he quietly went out and came to his father's house alone.
Two monks were guarding the door. They were my father's personal bodyguards. They had profound cultivation. In the eyes of ordinary people in the world of Noble Phantasms, they were simply invincible. Moreover, they were equipped with level 12 combat equipment, which was very powerful and ensured that my father
of safety.
"I want to see my father."
The two monks stood at the door calmly, not showing any intention of informing him: "The master has already gone to bed."
Hua Zhan whispered: "I have something very important!"
The two monks couldn't help but laugh, with obvious contempt in their smiles: "Fourth Young Master, no matter what happens to you, what good results do you think you will get if you wake up the master at this time?
The master will not listen to what you say, he will be furious, and you will be the one who suffers. Go back, and if anything happens, we will report it according to normal procedures tomorrow morning."
Hua Zhan was angry: "I am his son, and there is something important about my life and death. Isn't that enough for you to make an exception and report it?"
The two monks were still laughing and said lightly: "It's not enough."
A strong sense of humiliation surged into his brain. He knew that the entire family looked down on him. This was not the first time he encountered such a direct and naked humiliation. But for some reason, he felt this humiliation particularly strongly tonight.
His emotions exploded and he turned around and left without saying a word.
The two monks watched him leave, still smiling: "What a fool, doesn't he understand that if he is really dead, the master will only be secretly happy?"
Their voices were like sword threads, penetrating into Hua Zhan's ears and deeply piercing his nerves.
He left his father's house and immediately broke into his driver's house.
Song Zheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, after confirming that Hou Ji's line was disconnected in the afternoon, he immediately secretly used Yang Shen's magical power to stir up Hua Zhan's emotions and secretly influence him. Otherwise, this time's plan
It was a complete failure.
The driver sat up from the bed and looked at him quietly: "Young Master has already made a decision?"
Hua Zhan sat down but did not speak. Song Zheng took out a jar of strong wine and placed it in front of him. Hua Zhan grabbed it and drank half of the jar, making him covered in wine. He dropped the jar heavily,
He asked with straight eyes: "You really won't hurt me?"
Song Zhengdao: "Actually, I won't hurt anyone. If Bai Baodong wants to arrest me, of course I won't give in. Tianlan Manor is the price he pays for his arrogance."
Hua Zhan's lips trembled a little: "It is indeed you."
Song Zheng nodded lightly: "Fourth Young Master Hua, why don't you think about it from another angle? This just proves that I am not an ordinary foreign monk. I travel through various worlds and have extensive knowledge. The treasures of your world cannot limit me.
It also proves that by trading with me, I have the ability to protect my business partners."
Hua Zhan sighed and said, "Okay, what do you want."
Song Zheng smiled slightly.
…
Although Hua Zhan has little status in the Hua family, he is, after all, the fourth son recognized by the Hua family as the head of the family. His three brothers are responsible for their own family businesses and control huge funds and power.
When we arrived at Huazhan, there was only an average-sized Noble Phantasm refining factory in Baishan City, seven hundred miles outside the capital.
This factory ranks very low among the entire Huajia family. There are no real experts in Noble Phantasms. There are only 300 workers, and the annual profit is only around 10 million.
Hua Zhan left the capital early the next morning and went to Huigu Mountain, thousands of miles away, to explore and relax. No one in the Hua family cared about him.
Huigu Mountain has always been a mysterious mountain in Dongping Kingdom, with many myths and legends.
Hua Zhan was stimulated by his family. When he arrived at Huigu Mountain, he was running around all over the mountain. He lost his footing and fell into a valley. When the bodyguards found him, he was unharmed, but he seemed a little dazed. He faced
