The blood of a destined person is really a mysterious thing. If Lu Hanjiang hadn't known that the magic weapon was connected to the secret treasure of immortality, he would have doubted whether Huo Yunqi was telling nonsense.
In fact, Huo Yunqi himself was a little uneasy at this moment. With the demise of Zhujian Villa and the decline of the Huo family, there would naturally be no elders or the like who would use the ancestral method to scold him for betraying his father's land. He didn't feel bad.
And to be honest, the Sword Making Villa did not intentionally hide the method of casting the magic weapon. If they didn't think it was ugly, they would have made this method public long ago.
After all, there is nothing to hide, because the harsh conditions for casting a magic weapon are right there. It requires not only superb skills and extraordinary talent, but also enough luck.
To put it bluntly, at that time, except for the Sword Making Villa, no one else in the world could forge a magic weapon.
Therefore, Huo Yunqi had no psychological pressure at all. He generously copied the materials written on the drawings and sent them over. Treating people with sincerity and expressing sincerity is one aspect, and his precious confidence in the magic weapon is another aspect.
For Huo Yunqi now, reviving the family is the first priority, and the rest is an afterthought.
In these days, after receiving the financial help from Boss Zhu, Huo Yunqi's long-prepared plan was finally launched. He broke into the Eastern Capital with thunderous momentum and immediately established a firm foothold.
Before the major forces could react, he had already begun to attack everywhere. It was at this time that he was surprised to find that Boss Zhu behind him not only had extraordinary financial resources, but also had an extremely powerful background.
Faced with his aggression, several forces in Dongdu immediately stopped after the initial subconscious resistance. Instead of having any intention of starting a war, they issued a friendly invitation to him.
Before he knew it, people from several big families in Dongdu had already gathered together to discuss this matter.
There are many large and small forces in the territory of Dongdu, led by the Lin family, Fang family, and Liu family. There was also the Lu family of the Rising Sun Escort Agency, but the other party had already been eliminated, and no descendants were left, so it was not included in them. .
In the secret meeting of the three top families, the head of the Lin family was the first to speak: "Everyone, the details of this person surnamed Zhu have been found out. He is indeed a weapons business in the south of the Yangtze River. I heard that he returned to his hometown a few years ago because of bad luck. Who knows? Here we are again."
The head of the Liu family nodded and said, "I have also heard about this matter. I heard that this person had to choose to retire due to persecution by Jianghu forces."
The head of the Fang family frowned and said: "If that's the case, wouldn't it be very strange? Master Fu Yin hosted a banquet for us that day, obviously to support Boss Zhu. But if he really has such strong support in the court, how could he be just a mere A group of Jianghu forces are threatening you?"
As soon as these words came out, the other two people also fell into deep thought. Indeed, this was a very unjustifiable point.
If Boss Zhu had the support of the imperial court, the result would be that he could easily defeat the Jianghu forces, or that he would be killed early by the "righteous men" of the Jianghu, and it would definitely not be a situation like being forced to retire.
"In any case, you have all seen what Mr. Fu Yin means," said the head of the Lin family: "This boss Zhu is now a member of the imperial court. What should I do? I don't need to remind you two, right?"
"Humph, there's no need for you to be clever here," the head of the Fang family sneered: "No one named Zhu can do anything if Mr. Fu Yin speaks. However, the person we want to talk about today is not this person, but the person named Huo. boy."
The head of the Lin family returned the look, pretending to be indifferent and said: "Now that boy from the Huo family has the support of Zhu, don't you dare to provoke him? Anyway, I don't dare. If you want to find trouble, don't involve me. .”
boom!
The head of the Fang family slapped the table and said angrily: "Old Ghost Lin! Stop pretending to me! With that kid under your nose, you won't be upset just looking at him, right?"
Faced with the censure of Patriarch Fang, Patriarch Lin was unmoved, but had a mocking look on his face. At this time, Patriarch Liu, who was silent, came out and acted as a peacemaker.
"Two brothers, at this time, if we continue to fight among ourselves, it will only give outsiders opportunities, so why not calm down first?"
Lin and Fang looked at each other and looked away. The head of the Liu family looked at the two of them and said, "Although our three families have had some bad blood in recent days in order to fight for territory, but now that foreign enemies are on the side, if we can't work together, Sooner or later, they will be swept out of the Eastern Capital."
Loyalty may be harsh to the ears, but the head of the Lin family is not an ungrateful person. He nodded stiffly: "Brother Liu Xian is right. At the critical moment, we have to rely on our own people. In my opinion, this matter needs to be considered in the long term."
"A long-term plan?!" The head of the Fang family laughed angrily: "You just want to bring misfortune to our Fang family, and then do nothing to save it, just waiting to reap the benefits, right?"
Although Huo Yunqi's attack was all-out, his strength was limited after all, and he could only attack in one direction. The Fang family was unlucky and happened to be the opponent's target.
These days, half of the Fang family's shops were forced to close down due to crowding. Knowing that he could not compete alone, the Fang family owner decisively gave up these sites. Now, all these stores are owned by Huo Yunqi.
Huo Yunqi knew that it was difficult for him to fight with two fists, so he chose to attack with all his strength in one direction. On the one hand, it was to ensure safety, and on the other hand, it was also to cause infighting among the three major families in Dongdu.
As soon as the Rising Sun Escort Bureau disappeared, the three families immediately met each other with swords. This made Huo Yunqi conclude that the alliance between the Lin and Liu Fang families had long been inseparable, and as long as he threw out the bait, the three families would turn against each other.
The fact was as he expected. When he invaded the Fang family's territory, the other two families were quiet as if they had not seen what was happening.
Patriarch Fang's scolding made Patriarch Lin unable to help but start to give false comfort again: "Old Fang, you also know that the Huo family has the support of Zhu, so even if we want to move, we have to think about it in a while. , that’s not what you said.”
The head of the Liu family also smiled and said: "Yes, what Brother Lin said is that before we understand the purpose of Boss Zhu, it is better for us not to act rashly. We all see the losses of the Fang family, and we will not You are the one who feels wronged, brother."
As the head of the Liu family spoke, he took out a small box and pushed it in front of the head of the Fang family. The other party opened it and saw a stack of land deeds inside.
"These are all good locations that I finally picked out. How about I keep them first to make up for the losses these days?" the head of the Liu family said with a warm smile.
"Hmph! The surname is Liu! You think I'm easy to mess with, right?"
The head of the Fang family threw the box to the ground and said angrily: "You want to get me to be your vanguard and die with these little horned things! Let me tell you, there is no way! If I can't survive, none of you will." It’s better if you can’t escape!”
After scolding for a while, the head of the Fang family left the table angrily, leaving the heads of the Lin and Liu families behind. They looked at each other, and the head of the Lin family said: "You know old man Fang's temper. He is so anxious. He jumps over the wall in a hurry. I'm afraid we will have to join him." Bad luck."
The head of the Liu family said: "Don't be afraid. As soon as the Huo family took action, I had already sent someone to communicate with them. The little head of the Huo family sent a letter. He is only targeting the Fang family this time and does not want to have any grudges with you and me."
"Is this happening?" The head of the Lin family said overjoyed: "Bring the letter to me quickly."
