It was late at night on the third day after I left Changyukou.
"Black Tiger".
Black Tiger let out a cry and ran out, then returned to the space, transforming into an exact replica of her. After emerging, it sat there in her place, meditating and practicing its skills.
Xiao Zhixing and Bai Feng flew to the Luo family in Xiazhou.
The Ghost Guard has confirmed that this Lovi is indeed Pilovi.
The young master of the Luo family took Feng Mo to the Luo family in Xiazhou.
Xiao Zhixing never lets revenge linger overnight. Now that she's made up her mind, she won't cause trouble in the Northern Frontier for the time being, but she certainly won't let the Luo family in Xia Prefecture get away with it.
This can also be seen as stirring up trouble, giving the Emperor System and Lovi a heads-up.
She, Xiao Zhixing, has arrived.
More than an hour later, under the starry night, they arrived at the Luo family in Xiazhou.
Bai Feng disappears into the shadows, and Xiao Zhixing, disguised as Doctor Xue, goes down to find Xin Wu.
"Dr. Xue, the person is here."
Xiao Zhixing nodded to him to leave, then carried the man on the ground and flew towards the main courtyard of the Luo family.
"Who?" Immediately, someone charged forward.
"Your great-aunt!" Xiao Zhixing kicked the other person to death and slammed the person in his hand towards the main gate of the courtyard.
Bang.
The entire Luo family was instantly awakened.
The guards were shocked and attacked simultaneously.
Xiao Zhixing sneered and said in the voice of an old woman, "Patriarch of the Luo family, I am here today to seek justice from you. If you do not want your entire clan to be wiped out, then come out and die obediently."
Bang bang bang, several guards were killed in one blow.
The sound traveled a long way, and the entire Luo family heard it.
The guards were so frightened that they dared not come any closer.
"Venerable one, you are a guest from afar. Please come inside and talk." An aged voice rang out from inside the house.
Xiao Zhi walked in.
"The Luo family is really keeping it hidden. They have a Heaven-level expert sitting in their house, yet they remain completely unknown."
The old man sitting cross-legged on the low couch inside the room was not Luo Shanhe, the head of the Luo family, but an elderly man.
Xiao Zhixing saw no guards in his field of vision. He sat down at the table and looked the old man up and down. "Oh, so your time is coming to an end. No wonder."
Those who reach the heavenly realm in their seventies or eighties, no matter how much they extend their lifespan, are like rotten wood being repainted – it's all in vain.
"Venerable one, what brings you to my Luo residence in such a menacing manner?" the old man asked angrily.
Just then, Luo Wei's father, Luo Shanhe, rushed over and saw Xiao Zhixing's missing person at the door, his expression changing slightly.
Xiao Zhixing turned around, "Old sir, are you really unaware or pretending? Luo Shanhe wouldn't be hiding it from you, would he?"
Luo Shan coldly sized her up. "Who are you? If you're here seeking revenge, you should give the Luo family a reason."
Xiao Zhixing sneered, "Does Patriarch Luo not recognize that person? Are you pretending not to know when you clearly do?"
Luo Shanhe frowned, his eyes flickering. "I don't recognize this man."
"That shouldn't be the case. He looks so much like your son. How can you, as the grandfather, not recognize your own grandson?"
Xiao Zhixing scoffed, "Do you really want to provoke me into wiping out the Luo family?"
"Arrogant—"
"Shut up!"
The old man stopped Luo Shan from speaking again, saying, "Venerable one, since you haven't gone on a killing spree, you must have something to ask for. Why don't you tell me?"
Luo Shan cried out anxiously, "Grandfather!"
The Luo family patriarch glared at him fiercely, "Step back."
Xiao Zhixing smiled, "It seems that the old gentleman is a wise man. Today, I have come on behalf of my master to settle three accounts with you. First, Luo Wei used the illusion to harm my master's mother. Second, he defiled the harem and confused the royal bloodline. Third, he framed my master in this year's imperial examination."
"My lord has found evidence for all three of these matters. If there were no evidence, I would not have come to you."
Her killing intent was chilling. "Furthermore, your Luo Wei is now the Imperial Tutor of the Northern Frontier, which is tantamount to treason. If this matter is made public, and I were to slaughter the entire Luo family, the whole world would only applaud and cheer."
Luo Shanhe's face grew increasingly pale, until finally turning deathly white.
The Luo family patriarch sighed deeply, "I wonder what instructions your lord, Prince Yuansheng, has?"
Xiao Zhixing said, "My lord has decreed that Luo Shanhe of the Luo family should atone for his sins with his death, and all assets of the Luo family under the name of Xiazhou shall be turned over to the public and handed over to General Mu Wan for receipt."
"Finally, the evidence of Lowe's debauchery in the harem should also be handed over."
This is a good tool for dealing with Zhao Lin. By holding the evidence that he is not Zhao Yunqi's son in our hands, we can remove his halo of being the eldest prince in the future.
Sometimes, the bloodline of an emperor can stir up a lot of trouble, and she has to plan ahead.
“No, where is there such evidence?” Luo Shan denied it outright.
"It seems that the lives of your entire family are not worth as much as one Lovi."
The power of a third-level Heavenly Realm expert erupted.
*Pfft, pfft*, of the three present, Luo Shanhe and the guard coughed up blood and were injured, while the Luo family patriarch was also pale and swaying.
"Your Excellency, please stop!" The Luo family patriarch cried out after resisting, "We agree!"
Xiao Zhixing withdrew his oppressive aura. "Wouldn't it have been better if you had just behaved yourself earlier?"
Luo Shanhe, his face ashen, reluctantly handed over the evidence from back then.
Inside are letters between Luo Wei and Zhang Xiu, tokens of their friendship, and Luo Wei's confession when he defected from the Luo family.
"You guys are well prepared."
The Luo family patriarch smiled bitterly, “We have produced an unfilial descendant. The entire family cannot be allowed to sink into ruin with him. I hope Your Excellency will convey to Prince Yuansheng that our family has committed grave sins, but the children are innocent and do not know the reasons behind this. Please ask her to leave a bloodline for our Luo family.”
They knew in their hearts that the death of Luo Shan alone could not extinguish Xiao Zhixing's anger.
They naively assumed that, given the emperor's silence over the years, the matter had simply passed.
Unexpectedly, the cycle of karma has come full circle, and this day has finally arrived.
Xiao Zhixing carefully put away the evidence and said calmly, "Old sir, there's no need for you to retreat in order to advance. My master is not a murderous maniac and has no interest in the heads of your entire household. Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. My master is clear about gratitude and resentment and can distinguish who the mastermind is."
She could certainly wipe out their entire family, but keeping them as hostages would be a good bargaining chip when dealing with Lowe in the future.
Moreover, it's certainly not a good reputation to wipe out an entire family just because of a fit of anger.
How can you attract wise and virtuous people to your side if you have a reputation for being bloodthirsty and tyrannical?
She only kills those who deserve to die.
As for Zhao Lin's background, witnesses were needed. In the end, she left with the unconscious Luo Shan and Luo Wei's young master son, saying, "The main body of the Luo family head has been taken away. As long as he obeys and cooperates in the future, he will have the day to live and be free."
She flew onto the roof and said, “Tell Lowe, my lord will visit him sooner or later, and tell him to wash his neck and wait.”
After that day, the Luo family handed over their centuries-old family property, left the prefectural county in sorrow, and returned to their ancestral home to live a quiet life.
After pointing to a successor, the patriarch personally killed all those who knew the truth before passing away without leaving a single word.
The best protection for them is that they don't know those secrets.
It was a great blessing that the entire clan was spared.
Xiao Zhixing will send people to keep an eye on them.
That's a story for another time.
Xiao Zhixing then tossed the unconscious Luo Shanhe into the system space to keep Zhang Xiu company.
They found Xin Wu, and left with Luo Wei's son and Feng Mo.
Bai Feng appeared and said, "This man is called Luo Cang. He is Luo Wei's son who was placed in the Luo family. Through him, we got to the tail of the host of that subsystem in Zhongzhou. The Ghost Guard has already gone to investigate, and we believe we will have results soon."
"How do you plan to use these two?" Bai Feng pointed at Luo Cang and Feng Mo.
