Chapter 478 Uncle, You Need to Help Me
In the second courtyard of the Xing family mansion.
Xing Qian was fiddling with a newly acquired weapon in the yard. A servant came to announce, "Second Master, Xing Lan and his mother are here."
Xing Qian smiled broadly when he heard this. "Please go to the main hall!"
Xing Qian wiped the blade in his hand, placed it on the weapon rack beside him, and walked towards the main hall.
Seeing Xing Qian coming over, Xing Lan's anxiety was immediately apparent. "Uncle, what should we do? Father wants to pass the position of heir to Xing Lie!"
Xing Qian glanced at the woman who was drinking tea in her hand, then looked at Xing Lan. "What's going on? You came in without asking for my luggage first, but you were so reckless."
"Lan'er, there are no rules! Etiquette cannot be abolished!"
Xing Lan's face was almost wrinkled, he stood up straight and bowed to Xing Qian. "Second uncle..."
"Okay, tell me. What's the matter that suddenly came to see me today?"
"The master has decided to give the position of heir to Xing Lie!" The woman took a sip of tea and said in a calm tone.
"I think you should have known long ago that if Alie hadn't died, Xing Lan would never have been able to take the position of the head of the Xing family. I thought you could understand." He looked at the woman in front of him.
"Second uncle, you have to help me! Xing Lie is not dead. When he returns to the mansion, he will definitely kill me!"
Xing Qian frowned, "You and he are brothers. My Xing family hates fratricide the most. If he wants to kill you, your father will not agree!"
But Xing Lan did not feel relieved by his words. Instead, his worry became even worse, which made Xing Qian suspect something. He looked at Xing Lan and asked seriously, "Tell me honestly, was A Lie's disappearance related to you?"
"I...I just..." Xing Lan hesitated to speak, looking panicked.
"Yes! It was Lan'er who planned to assassinate him. But she didn't expect that he would escape."
"Stupid!" Xing Qian slammed the table. "He is a rare genius in our Xing family for thousands of years. Even if he cannot become the head of the family in the future, he will still be able to enter the ancestral land and enjoy the offerings! You are killing your brothers and sisters like this. Do you still respect the family rules of our Xing family?"
“I, I…”
Seeing his son panic, Han Dan coughed and said, "I've already killed him, but he didn't die, right? Xing Qian, do you remember what you promised me?"
"Me!" Xing Qian saw Han Dan suddenly looking at him with a sharp gaze, and his old face instinctively swelled. "Alas! I promised to help you! But you are not Aye's legal wife after all. It is reasonable for Alie to return and take the position of heir. How can I help you!"
Xing Lan was also getting anxious, "Second Uncle, you love me the most, you must help me! Xing Lie always suppresses me in everything. Since I was born, even the servants in the family look down on me. How can I not hate him!"
"You are so confused, you little brat! You know your brother's way of doing things better than I do! He has now advanced to the level of a war god. If he wants you to die, no one, whether I or your father, can do anything!"
"I...Second Uncle!"
Seeing that Xing Lan was about to make trouble, Han Dan couldn't stand it anymore. She had been planning for many years, and Xing Lan had been showing weakness for many years. One move could determine the outcome, but the other party didn't die.
"Lan'er, please step back first and let me talk to your second uncle."
Han Dan had cold eyes and eyebrows. Although he looked plain, he had a similar look to that person. Especially when he got angry, he looked even more similar.
"Mother!" Xing Lan wanted to say something else, but Han Dan's eyes forced him back, "Yes, I'll go down first.
Second uncle, Lan'er will go down first."
Xing Qian nodded, sat back in his seat, watched Xing Lan's figure completely disappear, then looked at Han Dan again.
"Dan'er, why didn't you discuss the assassination of Xing Lie with me?"
"I know you're busy with the Xing family's affairs. If I discuss this with you, will you help me?"
"..." Xing Qian frowned and sighed, "You guys go, leave the Xing family, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope!"
"No! Xing Lie has not returned yet, so there is always a glimmer of hope for everything. Lan'er's talent is no worse than Xing Lie's, but I, as his biological mother, have no ability, and my family background is not as good as Hua Lunong's. If my son cannot take the position of the head of the family, both he and I will die."
"Why bother!"
"Xing Qian, if our affair is discovered by your third brother, have you ever thought about what the consequences will be?" Han Dan suddenly put down the tea in his hand and stopped pretending.
"Dan'er, you know I have always felt sorry for you and Lan'er! But, how can I help you in this matter?"
"Please find out for me how long it will take for Xing Lie to return."
"You want to..."
"If I can't kill him once, I'll kill him again! As long as I can delay his return to the mansion, I have my own way to deal with the rest!"
"This..." Xing Qian hesitated, weighing the success rate of this matter in his mind. "You failed when he was only at the cosmic level, but this time he has become a war god-level warrior... If he had died last time, maybe there wouldn't be so many problems. Once the truth is revealed..."
"I only ask you to help me this one more time! If his crime is exposed one day, my mother and I will accept our fate and will not drag you into it!"
Xing Qian drank all the water in the teacup in one gulp, and then put the teacup down heavily. A cold light flashed in his eyes, as if he had made a decision, "Okay! Leave Xing Lie's matter to me, but Hua Lunong is not a pushover, you..."
"Hua Lunong has not had any contact with the master since Xing Lie disappeared, so there is no evidence to deal with her. Xing Qian, if this succeeds, I promise that Lan'er will be filial to you in the future."
Earth Sea City Base.
Hua Xiaodie's cultivation had regressed to a high level and was still regressing. Li Xiaoyu gradually relaxed her vigilance against her.
After all, with her current planetary-level peak strength, Hua Xiaodie, who has the strength of a high-level zombie, is no match for her.
However, for some reason, the news that Hua Yang was not dead spread throughout the Haicheng base. Not only that, a large number of supernatural beings from the Ancient Universe suddenly came to Haicheng, and each of them was extremely powerful.
In Villa No. 3, Hua Jianming shouted angrily in the yard, "This is too much! These outsiders have actually robbed all the prey in the wild forest! There are thousands of wild animals near the golden sycamore tree! Most of them are immature young animals and many evolving creatures, all of which were robbed and killed by them."
"Oh no, Dad! The fields in Villa Area No. 1 have been dug up! They robbed Villa Area No. 1 and drove out everyone inside!" Gu Xiaoyue's face was also full of anger. She was full of fury at this group of sudden invaders.
"Xiaoyu and Ou Zekun were covered in wounds when they came back just now! It must have something to do with them!"
"Huh, fortunately they can't enter the spiritual river and spiritual fields that are covered by the light shield, so we can still rely on them to live. Even if the wild animals in the forest are snatched away by them, and the cultivated fields in Haicheng are dug up, it will not have much impact on everyone." Lin Shuyuan analyzed.
But as soon as he finished speaking, He Xiaojun came running back covered in blood.
"Xiaojun, what's wrong with you?" Gu Xiaoyue supported He Xiaojun and checked his injuries. "You, your ability..."
"There is a woman among them whose powers seem to be similar to that of the God of War Rong Rong. She has absorbed all my powers!"
"What? There is a category that can absorb other people's superpowers? Do you know who it is?" Hua Jianming asked.
"I only heard them calling her Miss. That woman has a life force all over her body, which seems to be very similar to the spiritual energy on the small tree in our villa number three."
Li Xiaoyu suddenly remembered something, "How old is that person?"
"About 20 years old." He Xiaojun drank some of the spiritual water that Gu Xiaoyue handed over, and his injuries were healed. However, the spiritual energy that was sucked away did not recover.
"Xiaojun, try absorbing this energy gem and see if your superpowers can be restored!" Qin Mei handed the energy gem to him, and everyone focused their attention on He Xiaojun who was absorbing the energy gem.
If He Xiaojun's superpowers cannot be restored, it means that the damage caused by the woman absorbing other people's superpowers is permanent and cannot be recovered.
The group was worried, and their worries were confirmed after He Xiaojun absorbed the energy gem in his hand.
"I... I have lost my superpower." There was a flash of disappointment on his face, and some sadness in his heart. "Without my superpower, what else can I do? In this situation, am I going to become a useless person?"
"This woman is so cruel! I'm going to find her!"
As Gu Xiaoyue was about to rush out to settle the score with that man, she was bumped into Xiaowu who had just returned.
"Where are you going, Xiaoyue?"
"Let me go! She destroyed Xiaojun's superpowers, I want to settle the score with her!"
Xiao Wu's heart skipped a beat. "Absorbed superpowers? Did He Xiaojun's superpowers get absorbed? Can't he recover?"
Gu Xiaoyue nodded, "Look at him, he's already like this! How can we tolerate this? Back then, Yuemao was killed by those people, Yangyang also died, and we don't know when Brother Xinglie will come back.
Now those people have become more aggressive. Today they killed all the wild animals in the forest, destroyed everyone's fields, and cut off the food supply of our base.
He Xiaojun's injury may just be the beginning! If we tolerate it, they will definitely get worse!"
Xiao Wu, Yan Suan, Jiang Jiu and other former subordinates of Xing Lie looked at each other and said, "If he is really the one who can absorb other people's superpowers, you can't go!"
Xiao Wu continued with a sullen face, "That is one of the ancestors of the Rong family. He broke through to the level of a war god a hundred years ago and is very powerful. If you go there, you will be sending yourself to death!"
"The Rong family? The Rong family again! It was Rong Rong who bribed the killer of the mysterious organization to kill Yangyang. Is he going to attack us again now?" Xie Xiaoling held her belly with a pale face.
In the past few years in Villa No. 3, she has experienced a lot with everyone. She is no longer the timid, cowardly and indecisive little nurse.
She and Hua Shinian have experienced a lot together, and have become indifferent to all the joys and sorrows since the end of the world. No one knows when an accident will happen, so cherishing the people around you is the right thing to do.
There was already a little life in her belly that she and Hua Shinian had nurtured together. It would take more than seven months for this little life to be born. She was unwilling to take risks. But, was it really safe to cower in Villa No. 3?
Li Yanran and his sister have been in seclusion since Hua Yang's death four years ago. Beast-type psychics advance very quickly, and the two of them have great potential, so they have now reached the pinnacle of the planetary level. They have shed their snake tails and restored their human legs.
"Uncle Hua, Aunt Xiaoyu, although the number of people coming in this time is not large, they are all above the cosmic level. We are no match for them at all."
"The boss has been away for more than four years, and no one knows when he will come back. If all the major families have sent war god-level warriors here, then the Xing family will definitely have a war god-level warrior coming as well. I think, why don't we contact the Xing family's war god first to see how the situation goes?" Although Yan Suan said this, he was still a little uncertain in his worry.
After all, the Xing family, especially the War God-level strongmen, are not easy to talk to. Without the boss, I don't know if that person will take care of their affairs here.
White supernatural light emanated from Yan Suan's body, and then slowly dissipated to the surroundings until it covered the entire Haicheng.
"It's Shuang Zu. Uncle Ming has another war god that I haven't seen. He must be the new war god sent by the Xing family. Xiao Wu Jiang Jiu, let's go find them. No matter what, let's wait until the boss comes back."
Villa No. 1 is now occupied by powerful war god-level warriors from various families.
One of the villas with the best layout, which was the villa where Hua Yang and his friends lived when they first entered Haicheng, was now occupied by three members of the Xing family.
Xing Guangming broke through the planetary level and reached the cosmic level half a year ago.
In Haicheng, as long as the place is covered by the life energy of the Tree of Life, those with special abilities below the cosmic level will lose their spiritual energy if they stay there for too long and will not be able to absorb the spiritual energy in the air.
Therefore, the lowest level this time is also cosmic level.
"Uncle Ming, Frost Ancestor, can we come in?"
"It's Xiaowu Jiang Jiu and Yan Suan, come in!" Xing Shuang saw that the people who came were Xing Lie's three most trusted subordinates and brothers, and they were not prodigal sons.
"What is it?"
Xing Guangming and Xing Shuang sat cross-legged on the sofa. Another man from the Xing family was surrounded by lightning energy. The lightning energy was so violent that it seemed that it would spread and hurt innocent people if it was not controlled.
"Uncle Ming, Frost Ancestor, we are here to ask for your help. Can you discuss with the major families to avoid conflicts with the residents here in Haicheng?"
"A conflict? What happened? Are you injured?"
"It's not us, it's a friend of ours. Today, all his superpowers were sucked away by a war god-level strongman. As far as we know, he didn't offend anyone!" Xiao Wu explained.
"You are just a little planetary psychic, so you are injured. Do you think that just because you have reached the cosmic level, you can negotiate with a war god-level strongman? Don't be silly!" The strange man suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Xiao Wu and the other two.
"Guangming, Xingshuang, I believe you all know the purpose of my visit this time. The head of the family has issued a death order. The people in this Haicheng base must be used by our Xing family and obey our orders. Otherwise, I think there is no need for these people to exist!"
Xiao Wu's face turned pale, and as he listened to what the man said, his expression became increasingly uglier. "What? Why would the head of the Xing family issue such an order? Diandian's grandparents still live there. Where does this put the boss and Diandian?"
"Xiao Wu! You can't fight Zu Wuli!" Xing Guangming frowned and winked at Xiao Wu. But it was too late.
Xing Zhan's eyes turned towards Xiao Wu, and a force like thunder and lightning enveloped Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu was paralyzed by the electric shock and began to twitch. He couldn't use his wind-related abilities at all and couldn't even resist.
"Do you think that the family spent precious space crystals to build a channel on Earth and invited me here just to look for that god-level space fragment?
The people in Villa No. 3 are closely related to the god-level space fragments. The rumor that Hua Yang is not dead may not be groundless.
The people in Villa No. 3, especially those from the Hua family, must be brought under the control of my Xing family!"
