Chapter 514
This time, his lover turned out to be a prince of the royal family, but he was ranked thirteenth. In addition, Fengyan Kingdom was only a medium-level country in the entire Xuanwu Continent, so his status as a prince would mean nothing if he left Fengyan Kingdom.
Uncle Zhai said, "I heard that every time there is a competition like this, people from the sects come to watch. If they see a good seedling, they will pick it up and take it back. So this time, Yuan Hai and Yuan Hao, you have to work hard and strive to join a big sect."
In fact, after listening to Feng Jing's introduction to the Xingjian Sect, Zhai Yuanhao developed a yearning for such a large sect. If he had the chance, he would certainly be happy to join such a sect, but he also knew that there was a huge gap between the warriors in Linyang City and those outside. Although Feng Jing and Duan Linzhi were not much older than them, they were both martial artists, and high-level ones at that. Think about it, the ancestor of the Zhai family was a great martial artist.
Seeing this, Yuan Jing thought to himself that Zhai Yuanhao was still the same as in the plot, because the Xie Shuhong brothers didn't have much affection for the Wushuang Sect, but he didn't join the Xingjian Sect in the plot. Who knows what choice he will make this time. Now that his lover's identity makes Yuan Jing more confident in helping Zhai Yuanhao avoid the first disaster. If Zhai Yuanhao becomes a disciple of the Xingjian Sect, will Xie Shuhong still dare to suppress him unscrupulously and destroy the entire Zhai family?
He had to find Duan Linzhi to ask about his status in the royal family. If the Zhai family could get close to the royal family, at least in Fengyan, the safety of the Zhai family would be enhanced. Of course, he couldn't relax because of this, because Zhai Yuanhao's future enemies would not be something that a small Fengyan country could deal with.
Within two days, the competition began. Zhai Yuanhai and Zhai Yuanhao were busy participating in the competition. Yuan Jing, as a spectator, finally got the chance to meet Duan Linzhi again.
The two men sat in the stands watching the fight on the ring, whispering about their situation.
After knowing Zhai Yuanjing's identity, Duan Linzhi went back and found out everything about the Zhai family, but he couldn't figure out what task Yuanjing was going to complete, because the environment of the Zhai family seemed to be very good.
But when Yuan Jing used his soul power to transmit the plot to Duan Lin, the latter didn't know what to say. This was clearly a grassroots story of Long Aotian's upgrade. While Long Aotian was having a good time, the people around him were miserable. And this time, Long Aotian was the particularly miserable one.
"This is a bit troublesome." After analyzing the plot, Duan Linzhi came to such a conclusion.
Yuan Jing spread his hands and said, "That's right. I've been distressed since I woke up, but my fifth brother is actually a very good person and he takes good care of my cousin. Even my original self doesn't hate him."
Duan Linzhi rubbed Yuan Jing's head. He thought Yuan Jing was so cute every time he saw him transformed into a young boy. "With me and you working together, we can definitely help the Zhai family avoid the disaster of extermination. As for Zhai Yuanhao's future, he has to make his own way."
Yuan Jing felt the same way. He was afraid that if he interfered too much, Zhai Yuanhao would suffer less and become mediocre. He believed that was not what the original body wanted to see.
Yuan Jing nodded and said, "This first ordeal was caused by Xie Shuhong. I was wondering if I should quietly kill this bastard."
Yuan Jing had no psychological trauma at all for attacking such a scum. Neither the Xie family nor Xie Shuchun were good people. Although Xie Shuchun had good talent and was able to enter the Wushuang Sect, talent did not represent character. Would he not know what kind of character his own brother was? But did he discipline or stop him? Not at all, but let it go. Those who died because of his brother were no different from ants in Xie Shuchun's eyes.
A smile appeared in Duan Linzhi's eyes. In his opinion, Yuan Jing was also a person who protected his people. Of course, unlike Xie Shuchun, Yuan Jing's values were always positive, and he could clearly distinguish right from wrong and grudges. If Zhai Yuanhao was not a good person, Yuan Jing would not have stood on his side.
"Leave this matter to me. I guarantee it will be done quietly. Even if Xie Shuchun comes back, he won't be able to find out the truth. Besides, the royal family has actually developed quite well in recent years. Xie Shuchun doesn't have that much face in front of the royal family."
"Is it because the Xie family's arrogance has made the royal family uncomfortable?" Yuan Jing asked curiously.
Duan Linzhi nodded. That was exactly the case.
"Then you have a pretty good position in the royal family, right?"
Duan Linzhi smiled and said, "Just because I entered the Xingjian Sect, the royal family can't treat me badly. It's not easy for warriors from Fengyan Country to go out, so they value Xie Shuchun so much. But it's obvious that Xie Shuchun doesn't care about Fengyan Country and only cares about the Xie family."
This matter is quite contradictory. If it were Yuan Jing, he would definitely put the safety of the Zhai family above Fengyan Kingdom. But now his lover is the prince of the Fengyan royal family. Well, for this cause and effect relationship, Yuan Jing still hopes that Fengyan Kingdom will be well.
Thinking of this, Yuan Jing had another idea in his mind. He wanted to make this matter more secretive so that no one could find any evidence against him and fewer innocent lives would be implicated. Xie Shuchun was not a good person, so he started whispering to Duan Linzhi again.
Just as he finished talking about his plan, a surprised voice sounded from behind: "Great, Senior Brother is so close to Zhai Xiaoba that he even abandoned me, Junior Brother."
Hearing this voice that gave people goosebumps, he knew that it was Feng Jing who came. Anyway, he had said everything he wanted to say, and he didn't believe that anyone else could hear it, so Yuan Jing turned around and greeted Feng Jing with a smile: "Brother Feng, when I came here, I only saw Brother Duan, but not Brother Feng. I guessed that Brother Feng might be busy with something."
Feng Jing sat down on the other side of Duan Linzhi and said with a grin, "This guy threw everything to me. He came here alone to hide away. I am busy now." He looked at Duan Linzhi again. He just saw Duan Linzhi and Zhai Yuanjing smiling. "I didn't expect that Senior Brother and Zhai Xiaoba get along so well."
Duan Linzhi not only did not deny it, but also nodded for the first time: "Yes, we just get along well. Maybe we knew each other in the previous life."
Feng Jing was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. When had Duan Linzhi ever said something so sentimental? He almost suspected that his senior brother had been possessed by someone else.
But no one can explain the matter of fate clearly, and Feng Jing could only assume that Duan Linzhi and Zhai Xiaoba really got along well. Then he adjusted his attitude towards Zhai Xiaoba and the other brothers of the Zhai family, and there was a bit more sincerity in his enthusiasm.
During the lunch break, Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi found a place to eat, and then Yuan Jing took the time to prepare some food and handed it to Duan Linzhi. Although Duan Linzhi put the food away, he was a little amused: "According to my original personality, I would never use such means, but the method you mentioned is safer and can also involve fewer innocent lives."
Yuan Jing laughed out loud: "Isn't this better? No one will suspect you. Let's go. Brother Zhai Wu will be on stage this afternoon. If I don't show up, they will definitely call me."
"Well, let's go."
Yuan Jing remembered that the incident that happened to Zhai Yuanhao happened to be after most of the competition had gone on. At that time, Zhai Yuanhao showed off a little in the arena and was seen by Xie Shuhong. He felt uncomfortable when he found out that a country bumpkin whom he looked down upon was in such a limelight. Perhaps even if that incident had not happened, Xie Shuhong would have taught Zhai Yuanhao a lesson.
Therefore, there is no need to wait until the end of the competition, Duan Linzhi can start dealing with Xie Shuhong.
In the first few matches, Zhai Yuanhao won without a doubt. Because his opponents were much stronger than him, Zhai Yuanhao received a lot of attention as described in the plot. Zhai Yuanhai gradually became tired, but he was unwilling to admit defeat. He fought one match after another. Some of the other contestants from Linyang City were eliminated while others continued to compete.
Xie Shuhong actually didn't like such competitions very much, even though his elder brother had once made a big splash in such competitions and had the opportunity to be noticed and taken away by the Wushuang Sect. However, Xie Shuhong had no talent and had relied on elixirs and resources to become a warrior. When he came to such occasions, not only did he remind people of his elder brother's excellence, which made him look useless, but he also couldn't stand those warriors who made a splash on the arena. The existence of these people also reminded him that he was a waste who could only rely on his elder brother.
"Second Young Master, drink more! Come on, toast him. If he drinks happily, you will all be rewarded." Xie Shuhong's lackeys saw that the Second Young Master was unhappy, and ordered the beautiful women who were serving Xie Shuhong to toast him. There were also beautiful women accompanying them.
"What are you toasting for? You should feed it mouth to mouth, don't you think so, Second Young Master?"
"Haha, come on, come on, come on."
Inside the restaurant, the group drank recklessly and made a mess. The second young master Xie almost drank himself to death and was finally sent back to the Xie family. The Xie family didn't take it seriously. The Xie family had the eldest son working hard outside, and the second young master Xie was less talented. Couldn't he rely on his eldest brother to live a comfortable and happy life?
So even though Xie Shuhong was lustful, the elders of the Xie family did not stop him. He had more than a dozen concubines and many beautiful maids in his room. But even so, Xie Shuhong still liked to hunt for beauties outside. Perhaps he liked the thrill of it.
Back in the room, Xie Shuhong, who should have been drunk to death, suddenly woke up again. He stretched out his hands and dragged the two maids who served him onto the bed. Soon, the servants' very familiar voices were heard in the room again. None of the servants took it seriously because this was a common thing in the second young master's room.
In the late night, a terrified scream suddenly came from the room of the second young master of the Xie family. The servants and guards in the yard rushed into the room and saw the second young master lying on the bed with his eyes wide open. When they reached back and touched him, they found that the servant was so scared that he fell to the ground and ran out in a hurry.
"Oh no, the Second Young Master is dead."
"Oh no, something happened to the Second Young Master."
It was late at night and both Xie's father and mother were alarmed. They were angry and wanted to scold the servants, but when they heard that the second young master was in trouble, the couple hurried over and saw Xie Shuhong lying on the bed without a breath. Xie's mother shouted "Son", then her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
The Xie family was busy in the middle of the night, and they invited the best doctor in the imperial capital to treat him, but the man was already dead, there was no way he could be revived. They checked the cause of death? It was because the second young master Xie was too unrestrained and died of yang deficiency, also known as horse stroke.
