Hou Yingjie couldn't help but be tempted when he heard about the top-grade elixir. You know, the high-grade elixir he took in the past made many of the family members envious. If he could get the top-grade elixir, his chances of success would be greatly increased when he breaks through in the future.
Even a fifth-grade alchemist can't guarantee a sixth-grade top-grade elixir, so Hou Yingjie patiently asked about the alchemist's situation. He learned that the alchemist was also from another continent and was a couple with the talented swordsman from Lingyun Sect. Something strange flashed through his mind. He had just come into contact with an outsider who slapped him in the face, and now another one appeared, who was also a genius. How could he have much good impression of him?
He has always been proud of his talent in formation, but now a foreign cultivator has defeated him in formation, and another foreign cultivator has unparalleled talent in alchemy. He couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that these foreign cultivators have taken elixirs and become geniuses?
"Third Master," the subordinate suggested, not knowing what Hou Yingjie was thinking, "This alchemist is so amazing, could he have a way to cure Young Master Cheng? If you can ask this alchemist to help Young Master Cheng..."
"Humph, you are smart." Hou Yingjie had never thought about Young Master Cheng before, and first considered how much benefit he could get, but he would not admit it, "I will consider it, you continue to pay attention to this aspect."
"Yes, Master."
Hou Yingjie ordered people to prepare carriages and horses and go to Senior Cheng. Not long after, two giant birds flew up from above the Marquis' mansion, dragging a gorgeous carriage. There were guards on both sides of the carriage, and beautiful maids played musical instruments.
The Third Young Master Hou was naturally the center of attention when he went out. Gu Yao and his companions were among the crowd listening to other cultivators commenting on the passing carriage, some with envy and some with ridicule. They also looked in the direction of the carriage.
"This kid really knows how to enjoy himself. He puts on airs when he goes out." Yin Hua muttered.
"Where is he going?" Gu Yao saw through the thin silk gauze a handsome man sitting diagonally on the seat, squinting lazily, with a maid feeding him spiritual fruit.
An informed person heard Gu Yao's words and gave the answer: "Looking at this direction, he must be going to visit Senior Cheng and Young Master Cheng. The marriage of Third Young Master Hou and Young Master Cheng is coming soon. He should walk more diligently
. Yin Hua curled his lips in disdain. He could not see that the Third Master Hou was obsessed with the Young Master Cheng. This man was obviously more interested in women.
The few people exchanged glances with each other and quietly retreated, secretly following the direction where Hou Yingjie left.
They had heard before that the cave of the great master surnamed Cheng was located on another island, so they saw the Huache flying out of Yunwang Island until it disappeared from their sight.
Just as they were about to retreat, Chi Changye and Gu Yao frowned, and the two The man waved his hand, and everyone continued to hide their breath, and then they saw an inconspicuous aircraft also flying in that direction. Several people gave up the plan to return, and followed quietly, perhaps there would be unexpected gains.
Gu Yao and his fellow aircraft were not far behind, and he felt that the monks in the aircraft in front were acting suspiciously, and they stopped halfway. Gu Yao and his fellows also stopped in mid-air, and then they saw the monks in front put away their aircraft and were busy in mid-air.
"Are they... setting a trap?" Seeing that these people were setting up an array, and a trap array, Gu Yao said in surprise, "Are they preparing to use it to ambush the third son of Hou who will return soon? "
Yin Hua sneered: "It seems that the Hou family is not a peaceful place. The third son of Hou has provoked a lot of enemies. Now they have seized the opportunity to kill the third son of Hou. If he doesn't die, it would be good to destroy him. "
Young Master Hou San, it sounds like he is the third in the family. There are still the eldest and second sons ahead of him. There are countless children of the same generation in the family, but now Young Master Hou San has taken all the limelight. How can the other children of the Hou family be willing to accept this? With Hou San around, they will never have a chance to shine.
However, the other party was also cautious in their actions. The identities of these cultivators could not be judged by their clothes alone. Moreover, they were very cautious in their words and deeds, and their actions were well-trained, with almost no changes in their expressions. Somehow, Gu Yao thought of a possibility, that is, these family forces or individuals were specially trained to be killers.
It is impossible for a sect to have such cultivators, but family forces are different. In the interstellar world, Gu Yao had seen them before, but rarely encountered them in this world of cultivation. This time he was really enlightened.
No, Uncle Qi beside Second Brother Tian should also be considered in this situation. The original Gu family might have some people secretly, but they were not comparable to these cultivators in front of him.
So these people might not be from the Hou family. Gu Yao was more inclined to believe that it was the internal strife and insubordination of the Hou family. The
Hou family mansion covers a very large area, and there are many family members and cultivators who come to rely on them. A family is no less than a small society. With different identities and cultivation levels, the treatment and resources enjoyed in the family are naturally different.
In a pavilion surrounded by water, two men were sitting face to face drinking.
"Brother, can we succeed this time? The third brother has no shortage of protectors around him, and he might have something life-saving left by our ancestors." However, those assassins they trained cost them a lot of resources. If they fail to injure the third brother but sacrifice the assassins they sent out, it would be a loss.
"Fourth brother, don't panic. We need to be prepared. We can't just focus on the third brother. We have sent people to chase those two guys. We should be grateful to them. Not only did they make the third brother look bad, but they also discovered this cultivator with the Qingyan because of him. If we find this person and present the Qingyan to Senior Cheng, do you think the third brother will still look down on us all day long? "
But even the third brother hasn't been found yet, how can we find him first?" Hou Lao Si asked doubtfully.
A smug look flashed in Hou Lao Da's eyes: "The third brother has been praised too much in recent years. He is self-righteous and never takes us brothers and sisters seriously. I am taking advantage of this point of him. Fourth brother, just wait for good news."
Hou Lao Da is the eldest son of the Hou family in this generation. He is not too bad in talent. Before Hou Lao San was born and showed his talent, his status in the family was not low. However, after Hou Lao San was favored by the ancestor, his position as the eldest brother became more and more embarrassing. He knew that with the ancestor's support, he could not beat the third brother no matter what, so he could only lie low for the time being, looking for the best opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the third brother, preferably to make him unable to recover from it.
He waited Over the years, he has spent all his energy on cultivating his own connections and power. Now that he has finally got the chance, how can he sit still?
When the third brother is crippled, even if the family finds out about him, what can they do? Can they sacrifice another family member for a cripple? Besides, neither the third brother nor the family can find evidence to prove that he was the one who did it.
The fourth brother Hou raised his glass and clinked it with the glass of the eldest brother Hou: "Then thank you for your good words, brother. There is good news. By the way, did you hear from the family about a genius alchemist in the mainland?"
The eldest brother Hou drank the wine in the glass and said: "Yes, I heard that. I also got the news that the alchemist went out to practice. I don't know where he is. It would be great if he could come to our Guwanghai. With the status of my Hou family, it would not be difficult to exchange some pills from him. Don’t worry, Fourth Brother, when the time comes, there will be a share for your elder brother, and there will be a share for you as well.”
"Haha, then I'm looking forward to this alchemist coming to Gu Wanghai for a walk."
As they said, Gu Yao did come to Gu Wanghai, but unfortunately, all of them had their eyes on the blue flame on Tian Feirong, so
they became enemies. Gu Yao and his men hid in the air and waited for half a day. Suddenly, the cultivators in front of them made some movements, hiding their figures one by one. They kept paying attention and could see that the hiding positions just corresponded to the formation. As long as the prey fell into the formation, they could quickly set up the formation and trap the prey.
"Pen, it seems that someone has sent them a message. At this distance, even we can't detect it." Yin Hua said with amusement.
As Yin Hua said, after a while, they realized that the Chinese car was coming towards them, and the flight route did not change at all. It seemed that the person who attacked Hou Yingjie knew Hou Yingjie's habits very well, so he did this.
When they got closer, they could see that Hou Yingjie in the car looked unhappy. Was this because he did not get a satisfactory result from Senior Cheng? “Sir, that Senior Cheng is going too far. Young Master Cheng’s disappearance has nothing to do with you, yet Senior Cheng is taking his anger out on you. I feel sorry for you.”
Although Senior Cheng is a deity, the Hou family also has an ancestor who has achieved deity status. Moreover, the Hou family is powerful. Senior Cheng is just a lonely man and has no advantage in any way. Yet he acts so arrogant in front of you. When Young Master Cheng marries into the Hou family in the future, won’t she have to live by your face?
Hou Yingjie's expression eased a little, and he touched the maid's face. The maid shyly fell into his arms. Hou Yingjie felt a little better with the soft and fragrant girl in his arms. You don't understand, this young master is not interested in Cheng Yuzhi, but Senior Cheng himself. Although I have the support of the ancestor in the clan, the ancestor will not focus only on me. Not to mention the uncles and brothers who have the same cultivation as me, there have been several talented younger generations in the clan in recent years. The ancestor will not let the family give up cultivating them. But if I have the support of Senior Cheng, it will be very different. He will only support me, do you understand? "
The maid's eyes flashed with jealousy. She was jealous of Cheng Yufeng because he was not only a man, but also had a plain appearance. However, because he had a grandfather who was a god, he could make their young masters follow Cheng Yufeng around. Cheng Yufeng was really lucky.
Although she wanted Cheng Yufeng to die outside, she dared not say it. Compared with them, the young master valued her future in the family more.
"I will listen to you obediently."
