On the empty street, a huge group of people came.
"These four old guys."
Qiu Zhanyu sneered.
He could clearly see that there were many experts among the four people, and there were even experts from the older generation who had disappeared for many years.
They didn't go out to suppress the bandits, but they secretly recalled them. Who these people were guarding against was anyone's guess.
"My lord!"
In the distance, shouts were heard.
These four pampered heads of the family pushed aside the crowd in front of them and went up to the city tower. When they saw Xu Wenji, they were all complimented and complained about.
Xiao Xian, the head of the Xiao family, who was dressed in green clothes, looked a little embarrassed, and his expression was also very bad.
"The thieves had no law and forced their way into people's houses in broad daylight. They openly occupied my Xiao family's ancestral home and killed and injured no less than seventy members of my clan..."
As he said this, Xiao Xian and all the Xiao family masters gritted their teeth and turned pale.
Looking at the embarrassed people, Qiu Zhanyu had no empathy, but felt that his mood was not that bad.
He was not surprised that Ji Longshan would go to the Xiao family.
Apart from Nie Wendong, the Xiao family had a big feud with Jilong Mountain. Nie Qing'er's death had something to do with them.
This is something everyone knows.
"Sir, you must severely punish that evil thief and avenge this blood revenge for innocent people like us."
Xiao Xian held Xu Wenji's hand tightly and cried every word.
The masters from the other three families also had ugly expressions on their faces, and they all echoed in agreement.
The four great families have been in Qingzhou for many years, and they have always been the only ones bullying others. How have they ever been bullied?
"That thief is so bold?"
Xu Wenji took out his palm without leaving a trace and wiped it on the corner of his clothes.
"Sir, we are reduced to this because we responded to your call to suppress the bandits and used all the experts in the clan. You can't just sit back and ignore us."
The speaker, dressed in white, looks very good and looks like a noble prince, but he is none other than Lin Xingchen, the head of the Lin family.
Henry Chu and Ye Sheng looked at each other and did not speak, but they were also waiting for Xu Wenji's answer.
"Anyone who violates the king's laws, no matter who they are, will be brought to justice by this official."
Xu Wenji nodded slightly, but his eyes fell on Xiao Xian and all the Xiao family masters:
"You all have fought against Ji Longshan, so you should know his martial arts skills."
"this……"
Hearing this, Xiao Xian looked a little embarrassed, but the pale old man behind him reluctantly spoke.
"My lord, Ji Longshan has already mastered martial arts. Especially when he practices horizontally, he is almost invulnerable. We tried our best to resist, but we couldn't force out this person's martial arts skills..."
The old man smiled bitterly.
What should I use to learn about martial arts skills?
As soon as Ji Longshan broke into the Xiao family, a group of masters went to protect the master's family and evacuate. No matter what means the rest of the people used, how could they withstand every move?
Anyone who saw his martial arts skills would have gone to report to the Lord of Hell.
"This man's skill is simply unbelievable. My brother stabbed his throat with the black iron sword, but it was broken. He didn't even see him use the body-protecting power..."
Xiao Xian reluctantly said.
It was after seeing this scene that he gave up the idea of taking action.
A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. Although he is not powerless to fight back, he does not want to compete with these desperadoes.
He thought so, and the others would naturally be no exception.
"Sir, don't be too pretentious. You should have seen Ji Longshan take action a few hours ago on Fuxing Street."
Henry Chu sighed, cupped his fists and saluted:
"I concealed it before. It's true that we also need to protect our people. It's not because we are deliberately slacking off and not doing our best..."
Henry Chu was also sighing in his heart.
Suppressing bandits requires work but no effort.
This was a unanimous decision of the four families. The masters of the clan who were closer would send letters to keep them away, while those who were far away would not be notified.
It was originally decided to weaken the power available to Xu Wenji and Nie Wendong. From now on, they would still have the final say in Qingzhou.
Who would have thought that Ji Longshan would be so bold as to attack Qingzhou City directly?
This sudden change directly disrupted his overall plan.
"Um……"
Xu Wenji was silent.
Qiu Zhanyu naturally knew that it was his turn to speak at this time, coughed lightly and said:
"Most of you don't know that Ji Longshan's martial arts skills are not only perfect, but also his magical powers. Within a few minutes, he defeated the joint efforts of four famous prisoners: Zhao Qingchuan, Tang Bailie, Bu Lingxu, and Yu Xuan...
"
"Supernatural power?!"
"Destroyed four silver medal catchers in just a few rounds?!"
"This this……"
Hearing this, the people present were in an uproar.
Henry Chu and the others looked at each other, and their hearts sank. How could they not know what magical power was?
"Supernatural power..."
Xiao Xian's throat surged. He had seen Ji Longshan's inhuman horizontal training with his own eyes, and he had suspected that this person might have acquired supernatural powers.
But now that it was confirmed, I was still a little moved.
The martial arts of mortals and the supernatural powers of immortals and Buddhas!
Tracing back to its origins, the original powerful martial arts were evolved from the supernatural powers of Buddhist and Taoist masters.
Once one masters supernatural powers, ordinary martial arts will almost lose their meaning. Only superior martial arts can fight, but they may not have a chance of winning.
but……
"This person's magical power is extraordinary. Even a hundred-forged black iron sword may not be able to cut through his skin. In addition to this magical power, he also cultivates superior aura such as the Red Dragon True Gang..."
Xu Wenji pretended to sigh:
"Of course I want to capture this man and bring him to justice, but the four famous arrests were all defeated in one fell swoop. It's not easy to capture him."
Having spent half his life dealing with aristocratic families, he naturally knows it very well.
For these people, nothing about the country and the people's livelihood is enough to impress them. What can really make them contribute can only threaten their interests and foundation.
Especially the latter.
The interests can be divided and the foundation can be divided, but no one is allowed to touch it.
Sure enough, Henry Chu and the others made eye contact, and then they took the lead and spoke sincerely:
"My lord, let me tell you straight. As long as you can capture that bandit, whatever you ask for and within our ability, we will do our best."
"That's right! Sir, if you have any requests, we will grant them."
"What Brother Chu said is exactly what we think."
…
The senior executives of the four major families nodded like garlic, and naturally there was a chorus of agreement.
Qiu Zhanyu looked at it with disdain in his heart.
The four families have been able to take root in Qingzhou for so many years. Naturally, there are outstanding people from generation to generation in the clan, but this does not mean that all of them are the best among the people.
Moreover, people are not static.
Experiencing luxury and wealth for a long time will eventually wear away the blood and courage in your heart.
With the background of the four major families, if they really want to fight to the death, Ji Longshan may not be invincible even if he possesses magical powers.
But even now, these people still want to let others take the lead...
"Thirteen blood exchanges, five levels of foundation building. The blood is like a furnace, the Red Dragon True Gang... If that's all it is, it's not difficult to take it down."
Seeing everyone expressing their opinions, Xu Wenji nodded and said:
"In order to capture Jilong Mountain, we must first break through his magical powers!"
"Break his magical power? I also know that my magical power can be broken, but that is just what is said in the book. I don't know whether it is credible or not. Moreover, how can my magical power be broken?"
Xiao Xian was the most active and responded immediately after hearing the voice.
Tao, fruit, supernatural powers and the like are top secrets to ordinary people, but to them, naturally they are not.
But it only remains as recorded in books.
On the other hand, Henry Chu frowned slightly, then covered it up, and asked doubtfully: "Is there a way to crack the magical power in Tiangongyuan?"
"All things are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. How can anything be invincible? Martial arts are like this, and magical powers are no exception. However, it is naturally not easy to defeat magical powers."
Xu Wenji did not show off and looked at Henry Chu:
"Master Chu, are you really willing to give up anything?"
"this……"
Feeling Xu Wenji's eyes, Henry Chu's heart thumped and he smelled something bad, but at this point, he couldn't refuse.
He could only respond bravely: "If we can capture and kill Ji Longshan, Mr. Chu will naturally not be reluctant."
"That's good."
Xu Wenji smiled when he heard this:
"I heard that a few years ago, the Crown Princess gave the Chu family a copy of the 'Yuan Fu Jing'..."
Yuan Fu Jing has three characters and one export.
All senior members of the Chu family, including Chu Xuan, all changed their expressions.
"No! Never!"
Before Xu Wenji could finish speaking, an elder from the Chu family already refused: "This is the only thing you can't give to anyone else!"
"What does the Master of the Chu family think?"
Xu Wenji didn't look at him either, just looked at Henry Chu lightly.
"Yuan Fu Jing?"
Xiao Xian and others also looked at Henry Chu.
"The Imperial Concubine once gave me a Yuanfu Sutra, but this thing is just a volume of sutras..."
Henry Chu smiled bitterly.
There was a hint of regret in his heart, and he didn't expect that this matter actually involved Yuan Fu Jing...
"The Imperial Concubine is a disciple of the 'Fu Shui Guan'. The scriptures she gave are naturally not scriptures in the ordinary sense."
Xu Wenji said calmly:
"Among them, I guess there should be a few talismans, right?"
The royal family and the harem are the most dangerous places in the world.
Concubine Shu was able to gain a foothold in the palace, naturally not only because she gave birth to a prince, but also because she became a disciple of the master of Fu Shui Temple, Taoist Yun Ni.
Taoist Yunni is one of the twelve martial saints in the world, and one of the masters who clearly possesses the Taoist Fruit.
Although Princess Shu has no Taoist fruit, she has inherited Taoist Yunni’s divine seed ‘Sacred Talisman Book’.
"I……"
Chu Xuan was about to speak but stopped.
Of course he doesn't know what the Yuan Fu Jing is.
He wanted to refuse, but feeling Xiao Xian's eyes, he still hesitated.
Xu Wenji just looked at him indifferently, as if he didn't care whether he would refuse.
"There is indeed a talisman in the Yuan Fu Jing, but can only one talisman break the magical power of Jilong Mountain?"
Seeing Chu Xuan's hesitation, the elder of the Chu family spoke up again.
"Maybe, maybe not."
Hearing this, Xu Wenji immediately felt certain in his heart, but he also automatically ignored the words of 'Zhang'.
Either Concubine Shu didn't give it to her, or she gave it to her, so there's no chance it would be one.
At least, she should have all the ones she is good at...
"Chu agreed, but who will activate the talisman? Since Ji Longshan has magical powers, once the talisman is activated, he will definitely notice it. If he misses a hit, then..."
Henry Chu glared at the old man fiercely, gathered his thoughts, and said with a wooden face.
But the thought of wasting such a precious talisman made his heart bleed.
"Thank you, Brother Chu."
Xiao Xian was relieved after hearing this.
"Just give the 'Armor-breaking Talisman' to me."
Xu Wenji put forward his request.
"good……"
Henry Chu's heart was bleeding, but after listening to Xiao Xian's words, he felt better and was about to agree.
"Master Xu, I can pay for a talisman, but who is going to use it? You have to tell me to wait, right?"
The elder of the Chu family said again.
"Be bold!"
Qiu Zhanyu shouted coldly, but Xu Wenji held his arm down.
"Your requests are quite reasonable."
Xu Wenji agreed, took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Henry Chu:
"This is the battle report that Ling Ying just sent, from Mulin Mansion..."
