Leng Su and Xia Cunran were drinking in the teahouse. They saw the guards passing by outside. Their clothes were clearly inscribed with the emblems of the four major families.
Xia Cunran raised his chin towards the outside and said, "Do you find anything wrong? In recent days, I feel that the attitude of the City Lord's Mansion in catching the murderer is not as positive as before. I heard that the elder of the Zhang family went to see Master Rui Dan and failed again."
Leng Su frowned and said, "What is that old man planning?"
She had absolutely no good impression of the City Lord Qiao Shuangfeng. This man was in collusion with the four major families. Now he told them that he would suddenly change his direction and draw a line with the four major families? Leng Su was the first one to not believe it, unless the fairy world was going to change.
Even Qiao Shuangfeng learned about the new Immortal Emperor from Master Rui Dan. Leng Su and the others would only be further behind in receiving the news. Without knowing the external situation, they could not figure out Qiao Shuangfeng's intentions at all and did not dare to relax at all.
The two of them went downstairs after drinking tea. When they reached the door, someone called them.
"Leng Su, stop right there!"
Hearing the angry voice from one side, Leng Su and Xia Cunran looked over there together. Seeing who was coming, Xia Cunran's eyes flashed with disdain. Ascending monks are already in a difficult situation, but there are still some people who hold them back. Ascending monks like Su Yixiu are not on the same path as them.
Leng Su stood there with his arms folded, sneering: "You act like good sisters when nothing happens, but you act like this when something happens? Su Yixiu, I told you not to come looking for me, otherwise I don't know when I will be unable to resist taking action."
However, Su Yixiu had no guilt at all, she never thought that what she did was wrong. Back then in the spirit world, they climbed to the top by stepping on the corpses of countless people. What difference does what she does now make? As long as she can climb up, what can she not give up? Including the friends around her, she can use them. "Leng Su, did you do this? You have always been dissatisfied with my behavior, so you want to destroy my support, right? It was you who caused the trouble, but they took their anger out on me. Leng Su, you are just deliberately disliking me, right?"
"Ha!" Leng Su was about to laugh like crazy, "Su, don't you think too highly of yourself? If you just don't show your face in front of me, who would remember you? We are not in the spirit world now, and everyone has to revolve around you. Wake up, you are not that important to me. But thank you for telling me. I wouldn't have known if you hadn't told me, but I am very happy to hear it. Fellow Daoist Xia, let's go."
"Okay."
Xia Cunran also laughed after hearing this. Yes, they were really happy to see that Su Yixiu was having a hard time in the Zhang family. If Su Yixiu hadn't come to tell them herself, they would never have thought of this. Just like Leng Su said, Su Yixiu was really not that important, so important that people would always pay attention to her.
"Stop right there, Leng Su!"
"Leng Su, you will die a horrible death. Do you think the Zhang family will forgive you?"
"Leng Su, if I'm not having a good life, you won't have a good life either!"
The gentle and beautiful Su Yixiu was so angry and mad at this moment that passers-by looked very strange.
"The Zhang family she's talking about can't be the Zhang family, one of the four major families. Who is she in the Zhang family?"
"I've heard of Leng Su. The team led by Leng Su often goes out to hunt killer monsters. They are very tough. This woman is obviously not on the same level as Captain Leng."
Passersby pointed at Su Yixiu. This is where Leng Su and her teammates often appear, so it's normal to have heard of Leng Su.
The two sisters used to drive together in the spirit world with equal strength, but now Su Yixiu is no match for Leng Su.
Su Yixiu is now in a difficult position. The competition in Young Master Zhang's backyard was originally very fierce. No matter how many resources there are, they are limited. Of course, those who are favored will get more. In order to win favor, everyone uses various means. At first, Su Yixiu was favored by Master Zhang, but Master Zhang had no shortage of women around him, and there was a time limit for him to be favored. Although there was competition among other women, they united when facing Su Yixiu. Who made her an ascended monk?
This time, they caught the evidence. Although the murderer had not been caught, it was certain that it was related to the ascended monks. Master Zhang was not only blamed by his family, but also seriously injured in the battle. He had to catch the murderer with injuries, so the women in the backyard attacked Su Yixiu together.
Su Yixiu went to complain to Master Zhang, but was ruthlessly driven out by Master Zhang. Master Zhang was also angry with Su Yixiu, who was also an ascended cultivator. Now, even the monthly training resources were deducted, and she didn't get any at all. Su Yixiu was so angry that she wanted to find trouble with Leng Su.
Seeing passers-by pointing and talking, Su Yixiu was extremely embarrassed, but in such a big Donglin City, she could only return to the Zhang family in the end.
Zhang family.
The important members of the family gathered together. The clan leader knocked on the table with great force, and the sound of bangs was loud: "What does City Lord Qiao mean this time? Open the entrance and exit of the city gate? He hasn't even broken through to the immortal realm yet, so he doesn't take our four families seriously?"
Especially because the pills could not be obtained, the head of the Zhang family was very angry and could only pay a higher price to buy them from outside. Otherwise, the cultivation of the clan elders would really fall, and the strength of the Zhang family would decline, which would be the biggest loss. The elder had his eyes closed, but when he received a message, he opened his eyes and his eyes widened after reading it.
"Great Elder, what's going on?"
The Great Elder took a breath and said, "I can probably understand why that old guy named Qiao did this. The news from outside is that there is one more Immortal Emperor in the Immortal Realm, and this new Immortal Emperor comes from the camp of ascended monks."
The clan leader's pupils shrank when he heard this, but he still said stubbornly, "The guy named Qiao is just a fence-sitter. Does Immortal Lord Piaoxue know that he did this? Besides, he is just a new Immortal Emperor. Can he change the situation in the Immortal Realm? In the fairy world, our native fairy emperors still have the upper hand. "
Young Master Zhang was also very shocked when he heard this, and his eyes were filled with endless envy. Fairy emperor, how great it would be if he could become one one day, but for many years, the Zhang family has only cultivated to the peak of earthly immortals, and even heavenly immortals rarely appear. The eldest elder is at the peak of earthly immortals, but he dares not break through, because several of his ancestors were destroyed by the heavenly immortal tribulation when they broke through. Not only the Zhang family, but the other three families are in the same situation, so the elders would rather stay at the peak of earthly immortals than risk their lives to try.
Now City Lord Qiao is preparing to break through, they actually want to watch the show. If City Lord Qiao fails and dies in the heavenly calamity, the whole Donglin City will return to their hands, and it will not be so easy for the new city lord to take power.
Although the other elders were shocked, they still insisted: "This is Donglin City. No matter how far he, a newly promoted Immortal Emperor, can reach, he can't control us. I think we are too kind to them. They have rebelled and dared to attack our guests. This time, why don't we follow the city lord's wishes, open the city gate, contact our people outside, open our pockets, and dare to leave the ascended monks of Donglin City, not a single one!"
"If necessary, we old guys can also stretch our muscles, I believe the Shi family has the same idea."
The other elders and clan leaders all had ruthless eyes. Their ancestors had all lived here, so how could they allow others to interfere and dilute their interests? Compromise would mean a significant reduction in the resources at hand. Who would agree to this? As long as Donglin City's pockets were tied tightly and not a single ascended monk was let go, who would know what happened in Donglin City?
The clan leader made the decision: "Yes, we should give them all slave marks and see how they can rebel again. All clues point to the ascended monks. Although Wen Fan and Geng Yan's bodies were badly damaged and it was impossible to find out what caused their deaths, the earthly immortals at the scene could still feel the sword energy with a destructive aura. In addition, the City Lord's Mansion was looking for a lightning sword cultivator, so it was needless to say.
They also had people outside, so it was easy to find out about the sword cultivator and two immortal pill masters who appeared at the exchange station. Three, no matter which one, they can't be allowed to grow. They don't want to create a powerful enemy on their own territory.
Gu Yao came here early. Although the action was a bit hasty, the result was still satisfactory. Of course, the black cat Huiyi was the first to be credited. If it weren't for Zai Hui controlling the staff inside to open the cages one by one, there would be no subsequent development.
Gu Yao was quietly pondering the recipe for the elixir. Xu Chen came back from outside. Gu Yao looked up and asked, "What's the situation outside now?"
Although he didn't go out, he knew that Donglin City must be searching for people everywhere. Even the temporary cave they rented was checked by several people.
Xu Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "The city gate is open again. I said they couldn't seal it. What do you think?"
Should we go out of the city?"
Chi Changye came in after practicing sword skills: "Is it safe outside the city?" The conditions for training here are much better than those at the exchange station.
Xu Chen stretched his waist: "It's not safe. Aren't those families connected with the pirates outside? And it's unlikely that they will let go of the people who destroyed the arena so easily. But we are trapped here now, and we can't even refine the elixir. "
Everything that happened in the arena showed that an immortal pill master was involved. In order to avoid exposing their identities, they can't buy immortal herbs outside in large quantities. How can they make pills without immortal herbs? Although immortal fields have been opened up in the ancient space, the growth rate cannot keep up with their needs.
Chi Changye said lightly: "Wait a little longer, there will be a breakthrough. "
Leng Feng also sent them a message about the reopening of the city gates, reminding Gu Yao and others that it would be best not to leave the city recently. In her opinion, the four major families would not give up so quickly. The longer she dealt with these families, the more she understood their temperaments.
Especially when Su Yixiu came over to question her, for Leng Su, this was actually a signal. The Zhang family suffered such a big loss that they could not bear it. Even the people next to them were angry, not to mention those who destroyed the interests of the four major families.
