The mountain forest was quiet, shrouded in moonlight, and seemed deserted. Ye Ling, Xu Hong and Wei Ran sat beside an ancient tree, drinking wine in silence without saying a word.
Not long after, Weiran drank the wine jar dry, threw it away, and said: "I've finished the wine, it's time for me to go find some wine."
Just as he was about to leave, Xu Hong waved his fan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Ye Zi, I want to have a good talk with Wei Ran. You should go back first."
Ye Ling didn't understand why, they finally saw Wei Ran again, but it was a pity that he was so disheartened now. If he left, wouldn't it be difficult to find him again?
Xu Hong looked confident and sent a message to Ye Ling: "Don't worry, Ye Zi, I have a way to make him change his mind."
Seeing how confident he was, Ye Ling had no choice but to believe him, got up and left. Xu Hong and Wei Ran were left alone. Xu Hong smiled and said, "Wei Ran, I have something to say. Do you think it makes sense?"
…………
Ye Ling left, but did not go too far. His consciousness was released and he could feel the presence of Xu Hong and Wei Ran.
He sat on a tree, looked at the night sky, and murmured to himself: "I'm sorry Lu Li, even if I'm trying to save people tonight, I still... I'm also sorry for Miss Chu, I... I really don't know what to do. That’s great, can you tell me what to do?”
The night was blurry, but there was no possible response.
Ye Ling's eyes were focused on the sky, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
I don't know how long it took, Xu Hong and Wei Ran walked over from the forest. Ye Ling saw them and jumped down from the tree. When he saw Wei Ran, his eyes seemed to be as bright and white as before, sweeping away the gloom.
Ye Ling understood that the Wei Ran he knew was back. Xu Hong also nodded slightly towards Ye Ling, indicating that Wei Ran was fine.
The three of them looked at each other in a tacit understanding, smiled, and then walked back.
Later, Ye Ling also asked Xu Hong how he enlightened Wei Ran tonight. Xu Hong just smiled and said: "It's very simple. We can help him get what Wei Ran feels is lacking."
Ye Ling was puzzled: "How is this possible?"
Xu Hong said: "It depends on people. In fact, I have been thinking about this for a long time. When we get together, it seems to outsiders that we are scattered. It is better to start a sect and erect a big banner, so that we can compete with others."
Ye Ling had never thought about this, but after hearing Xu Hong's words, he felt a surge of pride: "Do we really want to do this?"
Xu Hong smiled and said: "As long as you choose the leader, Ye Zi, we will definitely make something famous!"
Ye Ling didn't answer, but his heart gradually surged.
In the night, the three of them walked back. Jiang Fan hurriedly greeted Wei Ran and said, "Brother Wei, are you okay?"
Wei Ran smiled and said: "Thanks to Xu Xiucai, you helped me untie my knot. The past is no longer important, the key is the future."
"Exactly!"
Pan Yulin smiled and stepped forward and exchanged names with Wei Ran, and then said: "How can we, as Taoists, forget the word "free and easy"?
Chu Shinian on the side looked at him, but after looking at Ye Ling, he quickly looked back, feeling at a loss.
Ye Ling sighed secretly and didn't know how to face her.
The weeping body over there condensed, and the man in black was surrounded by his bloody light. He seemed to have lost his intelligence, and he didn't know what kind of torture he had suffered.
Qixue smiled and said: "Everything is clear. This person was sent by the Wang family. The purpose is to kill Sun Shaozu and avenge Wang Bi, the son of Wang Sui, the head of the Wang family. But because the Wang family is not strong, they cannot confront each other head-on with Huixianzhuang. , so I used such a conspiracy."
Pan Yulin smiled after hearing this and said, "I see. So, the only way to get the antidote is from the Wang family?"
Xu Hong, who was standing by, waved his hand and said, "I think we should still think about saving Ming Xuyu and Yue Zhufeng. As for the antidote... wouldn't it be a great pleasure for the second generation ancestor to die?"
Xu Hong suffered this disaster because of Sun Shaozu. Naturally, he had murderous intentions and was unwilling to save him. But Ye Ling frowned and asked, "Can you rescue people by force?"
Yu Wuxie said: "I'm afraid it won't work. Now that the Sun family has recognized us as poisoners, they will definitely treat Ming Xuyu and Yue Zhufeng as hostages for Sun Shaozu's survival. They will definitely not give us such a chance. . What's more, the Sun family is guarded by strong men in the Celestial Realm, and it is difficult for Master and I to fight against it. I have already sent a message to several people before leaving.
Brother-in-law, I just don’t know when they will arrive. "
Ye Ling said: "Sun Shaozu's fate is at stake, and the Sun family will never give us too long to think about it."
Xu Hong said: "Since this matter was done by the Wang family, it should fall on the Wang family."
Pan Yulin asked: "You mean to ask the Wang family for help?"
"Of course!"
"How is this possible?" Pan Yulin said, "The Wang family is afraid of revenge from the Sun family, so they carry out this conspiracy. How can he cooperate with us?"
Xu Hong smiled and said: "If he doesn't want to, we will give the man in black to Huixianzhuang. At worst, we can all play together, two of us will die, and they will die for the whole clan. He can still tell which is more serious. "
Wei Ran sighed: "Seek the skin of a tiger!"
Ye Ling said: "It seems that's the only way to go. We just need to be quick. Xu Hong, do you have any ideas?"
Xu Hong shook his folding fan lightly and said in his mind: "Just follow my arrangements."
…………
In the Wang family's mansion in Tianxiang City, Wang Sui was sitting in the lobby. Not long after, a man in black walked in and said, "Master, things have changed."
"explain!"
"The poisoning was unsuccessful."
"What's going on?" Wang Sui saw Sun Zetao hurried back to the city today. He thought Sun Shaozu had died of poison, but he didn't expect that he would get the retribution now.
The man in black said: "My subordinates were about to poison me, but unexpectedly, Huixianzhuang sent strong men, and even a Supreme Elder from the Celestial Realm came, saying that our three families were disrespectful to Sun Shaozu and wanted to destroy Tianxiang City. Kill all three of my families!"
"What did you say!"
Wang Sui looked shocked, then waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"yes!"
The man left the court and turned out of the mansion. His face appeared in the darkness, but it was Pan Yulin!
At the same time, at the Sima family, Sima Hanguang sent a letter to Sima Boda: "Father, this is a letter from Huixianzhuang."
After Sima Boda opened it and looked at it, his face turned pale and he could hardly stand still. Sima Hanguang hurriedly helped him sit down and asked, "Father, what happened?"
Sima Boda gave him the letter and said: "Huixianzhuang is so cruel and wants to destroy my Sima family. It seems that the assassination the night before was done by Huixianzhuang!"
Sima Hanguang read the letter carefully and said with a smile: "Father, in my opinion, this matter is false."
"Oh?" Sima Boda asked hurriedly: "My son, tell me quickly, where is the fake one?"
Sima Hanguang said: "If Huixianzhuang wants to destroy my Sima family, there is no need to assassinate me. It is unreasonable to assassinate first and now issue a letter to tell the truth. In addition, if the Sun family comes to exterminate the family, they should fight without declaring it." , so that we are prepared, how can he be able to do so?"
After hearing this, Sima Boda felt that it was reasonable and asked, "Who do you think my son is who harmed my Sima family?"
Sima Hanguang said: "I don't know yet, but those who want to harm others will jump out sooner or later. Father, don't worry, just be careful and avoid conflicts with Huixianzhuang and the other two families."
Sima Boda nodded and said, "With my son here, I have no worries as a father!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone from outside came to report: "Master, the Yun family sent someone to invite the master to come."
"Yun family? What do you want from me?"
"The person who came did not explain. He only said that the head of the family would know after he left. Moreover, he said that time was tight and the head of the family needed to go immediately. The head of the Yun family also invited the head of the Wang family to come with him."
Sima Boda glanced at Sima Hanguang, and Sima Hanguang said: "Father is here, and we can't agree to anything. We can only deal with it superficially, especially don't conflict with other forces. Now is an extraordinary period, the situation is unclear, we can't It’s easy to offend anyone.”
Sima Boda nodded, then got up and went to Yun's house.
At this moment, Yun Conglong, the head of the Yun family, was pacing back and forth in the hall. Not long after, Wang Sui and Sima Hanguang arrived. Yun Conglong said to the two of them: "You must have received the letter from Huixianzhuang, right?"
Wang Sui sneered and said: "It seems that Huixianzhuang is really going to attack my three families over some trivial matter!"
Sima Boda frowned and said: "It is simply unreasonable for Huixianzhuang, one of the seven branches of the Immortal Path, to be so overbearing."
Yun Conglong said: "To be honest, I invite you two to come.
It was for this matter that my son and Lin Qixiao went to Tingyunxuan to drink, but there was no news. "
"this……"
Wang Sui had received information that all the Tianyin Pavilion disciples had left the Yunxuan Hall, and Huixianzhuang had taken over the place.
Yun Conglong gritted his teeth and said: "Huixianzhuang has gone too far to bully others. If you kill my son, I will sworn in with him!"
Sima Boda hurriedly advised: "Brother Yun, don't be anxious, we need to find out more about this matter, in case there is any misunderstanding..."
"The deadline given in the letter is tomorrow morning," Wang Sui interrupted Sima Boda and said, "We don't have that much time to hesitate."
"It's just that even if we combine the strength of the three families, I'm afraid we won't be the opponent of Huixianzhuang, right?" Sima Boda sighed.
Yun Conglong said: "Isn't there still Lin Qixiao? As long as Lin Qixiao dies in the hands of Huixianzhuang, then there is no fear that the Mi Xian Sect will turn against Huixianzhuang. When the time comes, how can he care about the two of them fighting? us?"
Wang Sui's eyes lit up. Among the three families, the Yun family was actually the strongest, and Yun Conglong was also a scheming person, and was even more scheming than him.
Yun Conglong said: "Strike first and control others later. I want to win tonight. I don't want to win against Huixianzhuang. I just want to kill Lin Cixiao and make the Mixian Sect and Huixianzhuang turn against each other. Then we can do it." sit back and relax."
Wang Suidao: "Just do as Brother Yun said. What does Brother Sima think?"
Sima Boda still remembered Sima Hanguang's reminder, but he couldn't refuse it. He just said: "Our Sima family will definitely do our best to preserve the family."
"good!"
Yun Conglong said: "Summon the masters of the clan immediately. Before Huixianzhuang takes action, we must catch them off guard first!"
