Chapter 74: The Evil of the Zhao Family (Twenty)
Zhao Shiming saw people from several major families not far away.
Xiao Pingyue, Xiao Jueshan, Xie Manqing, Feng Qi, Feng Qinghe, Ying Liangzhi, Chen Zhuozheng, An Xu, and Xia Qin from the City Lord's Mansion.
What caught his attention most were Xu Qiuqian and Li Shiqian who were sitting on the soft clouds.
He stared at Xu Qiuqian sinisterly.
It was this woman who caused the Zhao family to fall into such a situation!
"Zhao Shiming, you have done so many evil things, did you ever think that this day would come?"
Zhao Shiming burst into laughter when he heard this.
"I just used some tricks to help the Zhao family rise up, how can it be considered a sinister act!"
"Small tricks? Aren't you afraid of your tongue sticking out when you speak?" Xie Manqing rolled his eyes, "You are still stubborn even when you are about to die. I think you should stop calling me Zhao Shiming and call me Zhao Yazi instead. You are stubborn all the time!"
"Who said I was about to die?"
Xiao Pingyue smiled slightly.
"How about you take a look at where you are now?"
Zhao Shiming was stunned, and then found that he had entered the formation without realizing it!
This is... a fifth-grade Earthly Evil Soul-Locking Formation!
Anyone who enters this formation will have their body constantly torn apart by the evil spirits inside, and will endure for forty-nine days of agony worse than death. Even if the body is destroyed, the soul will be locked inside and also torn apart by the evil spirits. The pain on the soul will be even worse than that on the body, and they will be unable to leave, no matter how high they go, until their soul is completely annihilated.
Because this formation is too powerful, the price paid by the person who set it up is also extremely tragic.
It will consume at least two-thirds of the lifespan of the person who sets up the formation, and lifespan cannot be increased by using longevity pills.
Ghostly spirits emerged from all directions, like hungry ghosts that had been hungry for a thousand years, and pounced towards Zhao Shiming and the Zhao family disciples one by one.
“Ahhhh!”
"Chief, help me!"
Zhao Shiming kept dodging.
But this is not a solution. Sooner or later, his spiritual energy and everything he has will be exhausted. Until then, he can only be torn apart by the ghost spirits.
He looked at Feng Qinghe.
"Is it worth it to waste two-thirds of your life for me?"
Feng Qinghe had no expression on his face.
"It's worth it. Not to mention two-thirds, even if it's all of my remaining life, as long as I can make your soul fly away, it's worth dying for."
Whenever he thought of Fang Luyun who had been in a coma for decades and could only lie down after waking up, with only her eyes able to move, as if she were paralyzed, and her entire body was skinny, and she was only slowly getting better now, he wished he could cut Zhao Shiming into pieces!
Knowing that Feng Qinghe could not be persuaded, Zhao Shiming looked at Ying Liangzhi again.
“Chief Ying, as long as you are willing to help me get out, I can help you take down the Ying family, kill Ying Tao, and make you the real head of the Ying family.”
"What do you mean? Am I not the head of the Ying family now?"
Ying Liangzhi suddenly became angry and glared at Zhao Shiming.
"Zhao Shiming, are you jealous of me for becoming the head of the Ying family at such a young age and having an eagle that is about to awaken its ancient bloodline? Are you deliberately trying to sow discord between me and my fourth brother?! I tell you, envy is useless. Who told you to have the last name Zhao instead of Ying? But if you change your last name, I can still consider asking them for a favor for you."
He looked very serious, as if he was really considering pleading for Zhao Shiming if he changed his surname.
“……” Damn it, you’re stupid.
There's no hope.
With a "puff", Xie Manqing couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Hahahaha this is so funny hahahaha..." She laughed wildly.
In the past, I thought Ying Liangzhi was a mentally retarded person and I was annoyed when I saw him. But now I think that mental retardation also has its advantages.
Didn’t you see that Zhao Shiming was left speechless by him!
The others also looked like they couldn't help laughing.
Even Xu Qiuqian, who knew the inside story, couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips slightly.
It has to be said that only Ying Liangzhi, with such a silly and mentally retarded appearance, could say things that could make Zhao Shiming so angry that he vomited blood.
"Manager Xu, the one who offended you was Zhao Wen, and now he is dead..."
Before Zhao Shiming could finish speaking, Xu Qiuqian reached out to stop him.
"I said that I would make Zhao Wen regret it. Now Zhao Wen is dead. He did regret it before he died. So there is really no hatred between me and the Zhao family."
Zhao Shiming's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"But I'm just the manager of a small grocery store. I can't influence the ideas of several big families." Xu Qiuqian spread his hands, "So, you asked the wrong person."
Zhao Shiming finally understood that he couldn't leave today no matter what.
But it’s okay, he still has a solution...
Bailey took most of the Zhao family disciples to Fu Yue City. As long as he escaped, even if only a trace of his soul was left, with the Zhao family around, they would always find a way to reshape his body! "Zhao Shiming, what is going on with the dark yellow gas on Hong'an Street? If you can explain it clearly, I will let you go."
When Zhao Shiming heard what Xiao Pingyue said, he sneered.
"Let me go first, and I'll tell you."
Xiao Pingyue sighed.
He knew it would be like this.
Just then, a person flew over from a distance.
When he looked closely, it was Zhao Baili, his hope, or someone else! Zhao Shiming suddenly became anxious.
"Bailey, why are you here?!"
Zhao Baili glanced at Zhao Shiming, retracted his gaze, walked to Xiao Pingyue, and took out a stone containing a faint spiritual energy.
This is a photo stone.
"It's all done."
What does that mean? Why would Zhao Baili talk to Xiao Pingyue like that? No!
Just now, the people from other major families did not attack Zhao Baili when they saw him.
When Zhao Shiming thought about what had happened over the past month, an incredible thought arose in his mind.
"You betrayed the Zhao family?"
Hearing this, Zhao Baili finally looked at Zhao Shiming again with a guilty look on his face.
"Dad, if I don't do this, everyone in the Zhao family will die."
"What on earth have you done!?"
"He has done everything you can think of and everything you can't think of." At this point, Xiao Pingyue sighed with a hint of admiration in his eyes, "I have to say that your son knows more about current affairs than you do. It's not a loss to use hundreds or thousands of lives of the Zhao family in exchange for a dozen lives."
Hearing this, Xie Manqing couldn't help but burst out laughing again.
Why didn't she realize before that Xiao Pingyue was also very good at insulting others.
Seeing others looking over, he waved his hand and said, "What are you looking at? Haven't you seen the fairy smile?"
Zhao Baili lowered his head very low, not daring to look at Zhao Shiming. Zhao Shiming was so angry that he was shaking all over. He was not paying attention and was bitten by the ghost. He screamed in pain.
"I think you should be very interested in watching this."
After Xiao Pingyue finished speaking, he input his spiritual power into the photo stone.
Everyone saw the image projected by the photography stone in the air.
It turned out to be the Zhao family's large army led by Zhao Baili! After Zhao Shiming left, Zhao Baili led the Zhao family members onto the cloud ship. However, after everyone got on the cloud ship, Zhao Baili did not follow.
All we could see was that after a quarter of an hour, the Zhao family members who had boarded the cloud boat suddenly attacked the people next to them.
The Zhao family members on the cloud ship, who thought they had finally escaped, began to kill each other.
There is a formation on this cloud boat, which was created by the Feng family. As for why the Feng family could tamper with it so easily, it was naturally because of Zhao Baili.
The bloody scene shocked everyone present.
It also reminded them of their own disciples who died from the dark yellow gas.
For a moment, a feeling of sadness lingered in everyone's heart.
The Zhao family, which once used dark yellow gas to become one of the major families in Youling City, eventually perished in an array with the same effect.
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have done it in the first place."
Xu Qiuqian murmured as he looked at the picture on the photo stone, then looked at Zhao Shiming.
Zhao Shiming fell silent at some point.
He let the ghost tear his body apart without any struggle.
However, Xu Qiuqian felt something was wrong.
Xiao Pingyue frowned and said in a deep voice: "Zhao Shiming, all the people in the Zhao family are dead. Now tell me what happened to the dark yellow gas, and I can consider releasing it..."
"What is he doing?!"
