"How dare you touch Sister-in-law of the You family?" the female cultivator shouted.
Dacheng Ghost Lord Longtai was startled and sneered: "You Xingzhi kills my subordinates indiscriminately. Why don't you dare to move?"
The air around him suddenly turned cold, and the gloomy ghost palms were slapped hard.
You Xingzhi is You Xi's younger sister. As the top ghost king of Minluo Ding, You Xi has very few people who don't give him face.
You Xingzhi's cultivation was too far behind Longtai. He stumbled, his purple shirt on his shoulders was torn, and pieces of cloth flew around.
"That subordinate of yours is extremely rude. He keeps staring at my aunt. He is just seeking his own death." Maid You Xingzhi said urgently.
Xue Tong felt nauseated.
You Xingzhi's face is repulsive and ugly. What fool would stare at her?
"Asshole, it's not your turn to speak!"
Longtai slapped the maid on the face.
The maid spurted blood from her mouth and her face was as swollen as a pig's head.
Beating a dog depends on the owner. This is tantamount to severely humiliating You Xingzhi in public.
However, Longtai still left some room and did not kill the maid, paying for his life with his life.
A black rope flew out of Longtai's sleeve and tied the maid.
He said to You Xingzhi: "You can go see your brother and either pay for the money or pay with your life."
Longtai sent out telepathic notes continuously to greet his friends.
He picked up the maid and sat on the stone bench in the corridor of the restaurant.
You Xingzhi was shocked and angry, trembling, and stomped out of the yard, heading towards Chaodu Ridge.
"Oh, the excitement is going to be great now, hurry up and grab a seat!"
Miao Gaofeng took Xue Tong into the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, where he could see almost the entire courtyard.
Cold wine, bloody animal meat, Xue Tonghu eats and drinks from the sea without any scruples, the wild ape eats his hair and drinks blood, it is his nature.
After eating and drinking for a while, the fourth cultivator came to the elegant room.
There is one ghost king at the top, and the rest will achieve great success.
Xue Tong's cultivation level is "the lowest", he is submissive, and he shows his lowly and flattering attitude.
Miao Gaofeng still gave him face by bragging about his heroic deeds of killing Xin Yi, the ghost king of Weizhou.
"Both the principal and deputy governors of Weizhou are here to try to get rid of him. The bait will be the clues of Xin Yi's unsolved case." Peak Ghost Lord Xiang Hao said.
Several subordinates were drinking on the first floor and spoke in low voices in the private room, so there was no need to worry about leaking the news.
The result of the secret discussion was to sell Xin Yi's magic weapon and lure the Weizhou government into investigating.
Xue Tong observed the movement in the yard through the window crack.
Several ghost kings and ghost princes came first. When it was dark, two carriages came from the north of the town.
You Xi and You Xingzhi didn't show up, but the manager of You Mansion, Gui Jun Dacheng, came.
"Youfu is sorry for the death of Junhou's subordinate. My sister-in-law should have acted more gently, but it was the deceased's fault first. Junhou taught the maid a lesson and injured my sister-in-law. The matter will be cancelled." said the steward.
"To put it lightly, the You family's way of hospitality is to kill someone if they disagree with you? You need to pay a heavy compensation of 20 million spiritual stones, or the maid will be a slave in the Long Mansion for life!" Long Tai said coldly.
On normal days, Longtai might not be so tough, but the You family's failure in full public view made him feel more confident and demanded justice.
"At most three million, Youfu can be considered sincere."
"How can the life of a ghost prince be so worthless?"
Longtai invited friends to help and express his dissatisfaction.
"You Laojun's birthday is coming soon, why don't we let it go in advance and treat my maid well, and we can make plans after the celebration is over." said the manager of You Mansion.
"Long didn't have time to wait. He left Liangting and went back to Xianzhou after three days." Of course, Longtai didn't want the You family's birthday celebration to be over, so he concentrated on dealing with himself. He had to take advantage of the crowds and solve the problem as soon as possible. good.
"Hehe, just kidnap someone and go back to Xianzhou, and wait until the You family comes to find him!" the manager half-threatened.
After saying that, he ignored the crying maid and headed back home.
The You family has a very tough attitude.
"oh?"
Xue Tong wondered why the Youfu was unwilling to settle the matter and not sincerely discuss it.
"It seems that there will be no shortage of things during this birthday celebration." Xiang Haoruo pointed out.
Xue Tong specifically asked about the situation of the You family and Longtai.
You Xi was the ghost king three hundred years ago, and had only a handful of qualifications in Minluo. He was entangled with a group of ghost cultivators and occupied the Thirteen Ridges of Chaodu. He was so powerful that even Weizhou Prefecture had to give him some respect.
Longtai lived in Xianzhou next door. It was said that he was well-connected and popular.
…
The You family posted thousands of posts and nearly 800 guests came.
On the third day, Xue Tong heard shocking news from Miao Gaofeng: "Long Tai and five other people went to the governor of Weizhou to accuse the You family of their barbaric behavior.
"The head of the state, Qu Zhaojing, has some friendship with You Xi. He thinks that the You family is rude. If the matter gets serious, it would be better to calm down as soon as possible. He advises You Xi to pay tens of millions of spiritual stones to settle the matter."
"Unexpectedly, unexpectedly, You Xi refused outright. It would be easy for the You family to accept ten million yuan. There is absolutely no need to bear the infamy and offend the state capital."
"You Xi insisted that we discuss it after the birthday celebration, otherwise it would be a loss of face."
"Now he has face, Qu Zhaojin is gone, hehe." Miao Gaofeng gloated and smiled.
"What should we do?" Xue Tong asked.
"I don't know. Anyway, Qu Zhaojing left in a hurry, and the relationship between the You family and the Weizhou government is about to collapse!"
Miao Gaofeng paused and then said: "Don't worry about so much. Tonight's spiritual creature meeting will be based on the plan drawn up by the Prime Minister and we will try to sell the treasure to the Youfu monks."
"Tell us after you sell it!"
At the spiritual objects meeting that night, the Ghost Marquis of Miaozhuang stared at the monks of Youfu. On the pretext that he was very interested in his spiritual materials and had no money, he reluctantly sold the magic sword at a low price.
The magic sword had no special markings and was a common style. Youfu Guihou didn't realize it was a scam and took it at 30% off the market price.
The next day, the treasure seller left quietly, and Xiang Hao arranged to hide.
This day is also the official day of You Xi’s 800th birthday.
Ninety-nine large tables were piled with late-stage Grandmaster beast blood and meat, open for eating and drinking.
But Qu Zhaojing was nowhere to be seen at the main table, casting a shadow over the banquet.
You could see the faint displeasure deep in You Xi's eyebrows.
When the banquet hall was full of wine, the ghost king arranged by Xiang Hao unknowingly dropped a red package at the residence in Weizhou Mansion.
The high-ranking mansion cultivators all went to the birthday banquet, leaving the servants who were janitors and handymen, who didn't realize that Gui Jun secretly put the bag away.
Needless to say, the birthday banquet was grand and lively for more than two hours before it dispersed.
There was still a market for spiritual objects on the day after the birthday celebration, but in the evening of that day, shocking news spread quickly.
"The state government received a tip-off letter saying that the newly acquired magic weapon by Guihou Youfu seems to be the missing magic weapon of Xin Yi!"
"The state government is conducting a comprehensive investigation and will mediate the dispute between the You family and Longtai tomorrow."
…
The You family paid tens of millions of spiritual stones in compensation, but You Xi slapped Longtai so hard that his facial bones cracked and his teeth flew out and he vomited blood.
"Don't let me see you again, stay away from Chaodu Ridge!"
You Xi acted arrogantly and beat someone in front of the deputy governor who was presiding over the mediation. There was an uproar at the meeting and it almost broke into a melee.
"You Xi has been around for eight hundred years and has such virtue? How can he survive to this day? For a trivial matter, he has become a bastard in the eyes of everyone and greatly offended the state. It is simply unbelievable!" After hearing the news, Xue Tong said, Said to Miao Gaofeng.
"Miao also feels strange. I don't know who among the three parties is acting!" Miao Gaofeng said.
After that, the state government took away Xin Yi's magic weapon, copied all the invitation lists, the list of monks who entered the trade fair, and visited the ghost cultivators who were still paying homage, including Xue Tong.
What to say and what to do have been carefully considered in advance. The monks in the state capital asked themselves no clues and no doubts.
Xue Tong left Chaodu Ridge almost full of suspicion.
The fifth day after all outsiders left.
In the back mountain of Chaodu Ridge, a mysterious ghost cultivator came.
This garden is the place where Youxi practices, and no one is allowed to enter without inviting anyone. However, the mysterious ghost cultivator took advantage of the cover of night and cleverly avoided all warnings, and sat in a hut next to the rockery in the yard.
After a while, the stone door of the cultivation cave moved away, and You Xi also entered the hut.
"You Junhou has fulfilled his promise. I will pass on the second part of my experience to you. If you think it is effective, follow the plan and catch all the fish in one catch!"
"Then I will pass on the rest of my experience, and the Divine Weeping Pill!"
The black-clothed Ghost Lord threw out a jade slip and said.
You Xi took it, glanced through it quickly, and said, "Gan Zun is true to his word. I hope that after the transaction is completed, You can successfully knock on Guizun's door."
"Don't worry, it will definitely be like this!" Gan Cong said.
…
You Xi failed to pass the test many times. As his age approaches the age of a thousand years, Fahai is about to enter his decline, and his hope of promotion is getting slimmer.
Of course he was unwilling to give in, so when Gan Cong appeared in front of him and told him that he could provide full assistance, teach him the practice experience, and give him the Shenwei Pill, You Xi seemed to have grasped the life-saving straw and was willing to agree to all Gan Cong's requests regardless of the consequences.
The Weeping Pill is a spiritual elixir from the seventh grade, which is extremely rare and helps to reach the level of Ghost Lord.
You Xi has never seen this elixir in his three hundred years as a ghost king.
When Gan Cong was refining medicine, he was lucky enough to get an extra pill, which he still keeps today.
"I am accumulating strength to overthrow Wei Feibai. I urgently need the help of capable people like You Junhou. Junhou tried to ruin the relationship with the Weizhou government and became the target of public criticism. I believe in your sincerity in cooperation."
Gan Cong put forward conditions, and then You Xi instigated You Xingzhi to deliberately cause trouble...
As for the clues about Xin Yi's magic weapon, pointing to Youzhuang, that was also Gan Cong's instruction.
It’s just that Xue Tong and Miao Gaofeng didn’t know.
…
One day after March, Miao Gaofeng made an appointment with Xue Tong.
"It's strange that the suspicion of killing Xin Yi gradually turned to Youzhuang. I don't know how the state government investigated the case." Miao Gaofeng said.
"Is it possible that the state government is angry with the You family and looking for an excuse to repair it?"
"I don't think so. The You family seems to be very uncooperative. They don't want to clarify many things. The more they check, the more things get muddled."
"Youxi is so confused!"
"Haha, I don't know if Miao is confused or not, but it is true that Xiang Junhou ordered us to rush to Chaodu Ridge."
"How is it possible to help the You family?" Xue Tong asked in shock.
"The You family has detained the government cultivator who investigated the case. They want to see Qu Zhaojin and demand that the matter be explained clearly and the investigation be ended." Miao Gaofeng said.
"Detaining the government cultivator for investigation? This alone is enough for the You family to drink a pot. The You family has 40% fewer ghosts than the Weizhou government. What's more, the state government can also mobilize people. In addition to mobilizing troops from other towns in the state, , Qu Zhaojing might even invite monks from Xianzhou." Xue Tong said.
"That's why we need our help to hide in You Mansion and then come out during the war to annihilate Weizhou Mansion Xiu in one fell swoop!" Miao Gaofeng said.
…
Only then did Xue Tong figure out the cause and effect. He was suddenly shocked and immediately overjoyed.
"This plot is so serious and grand. The mastermind must be someone like Xiang Hao. Who could be more ruthless than him?"
"Gan Cong!" Xue Tong secretly said.
