Another two noble sons from the seven major families were instantly wiped out, and the atmosphere in the venue seemed to be frozen and dropped to freezing point.
No one spoke, and no one dared to stop him. All the soldiers held their breath and stared at the cloaked man nervously. As long as the cloaked man started killing again, the three floors there and the three floors outside would look like iron barrels. Their defenses will explode immediately, and everyone will run for their lives without any hesitation!
In the face of death, no one cares about dignity, face, or honor.
Even a great master like Fan Qianhu can't defeat the cloaked man with one move. No matter how many of them there are, what's the use? It's nothing more than a waste of time to increase the number of casualties, not even the bodies will be left behind.
Under such circumstances, only a fool would choose to fight against the cloaked man, make that fearless struggle, and finally die a violent death.
Therefore, the scene in front of him seemed to be Fan Qianhu leading a group of soldiers, surrounding the cloaked man and Xiao Jiyuan, but in fact, the situation had already been reversed and there was no longer any advantage.
"That... former, senior."
Fan Qianhu's eyelids were twitching wildly. Although he couldn't figure out why the cloaked man didn't kill him, but instead took the lives of Jun Congji and Jun Congji first. He swallowed and said quickly: "Senior has incredible magical powers. He must be a certain immortal sect." Are you the master among them? Fan didn’t know the identity of the senior before, so he almost offended me, so please forgive me..."
He reacted very quickly, knowing that he was no match for the cloaked man, so he simply lowered his stance and planned to protect himself wisely.
The three noble sons of the Seven Great Families died tragically one after another. To put it bluntly, they had nothing to do with Fan Qianhu. If it weren't for the fact that he was afraid that the benefits he had received would be leaked, he would not even bother to show up.
Now that all the insiders are dead, Fan Qianhu is the only one who knows the secret, so he doesn't care. After all, the life and death of the seven major families has nothing to do with Fan Qianhu. He only needs to push it to the cloaked man. With your body, you will be safe and sound.
The premise is that... Fan Qianhu can survive in the hands of the cloaked man without offending this guy with mysterious origins and being as powerful as a demon.
"You have some knowledge. Have you guessed that someone is a disciple of the Immortal Sect?"
Qin Dong was slightly surprised, but he also knew that the power of thunder and spirit was too sensational and could not appear in a medium-sized empire like the Holy Empire. The other party guessed his identity and origin. It's not very difficult either.
As the Deputy Chairman of the Inspection and Discipline Department, Fan Qianhu has a respected position and a very high rank, which is enough to have access to the core circle of the Holy Empire. If he can't even understand this, wouldn't his life be in vain?
"Although the senior is the same as the villain, he is at the ninth level of the divine power realm, but his combat power is so strong that it is rare in the world. Apart from those geniuses who have not been born for a long time in the immortal sect, Fan really can't think of any other identities. I am worthy of my senior."
Fan Qianhu secretly thought it was a fluke, as long as the cloaked man calmed down his murderous intention, things would be much easier to handle, and then said: "Senior killed the killer, probably because the seven major families went too far and touched the senior Nilin, so Bao Tianlin Those three guys deserved to die, and they are not worthy of Fan’s revenge..."
"In addition, the reason why the senior took action was simply to rescue Xiao Jiyuan, but this is the royal city. Although Fan does not want to antagonize the senior, he cannot let him go casually due to his duty."
"How about this."
"If the senior is willing to be a guarantee, as a disciple of the Immortal Sect, to ensure that Xiao Jiyuan has nothing to do with Qin Dong, let alone betray the Holy Empire, Fan can think of a way to suppress this matter, and then return Xiao Jiyuan's innocence …”
Perhaps in order to save his own life, and fearing that the man in the cloak would kill him with his sword, Fan Qianhu first talked about his difficulties, and then took the initiative to make a request, intending to save Xiao Jiyuan.
Xiao Jiyuan is innocent. This fact has been known to everyone since the day he was locked up in prison. It is not a secret at all.
However, under the operation of the seven major families, no one dared to prove Xiao Jiyuan's innocence. It even took only a few days to make up the reasons and list several crimes, and nailed Xiao Jiyuan to death in prison. , even the order to ascend to immortality was deprived of him, and he could never stand up again.
Because of this, Bao Tianlin, Jun Congji, and Hou Chengwang dared to come to the execution room openly and humiliate Xiao Jiyuan in every possible way, intending to squeeze out the last bit of Xiao Jiyuan's value.
As everyone knows——
Good and evil will eventually be rewarded, and the way of heaven is reincarnation. If you don’t believe it, look up and see who God has spared.
It was obviously a win-win situation, but after the cloaked man appeared, the situation took a turn for the worse. Even if Fan Qianhu came to the scene in person, he could not suppress it and reached a deadlock.
In order to break the situation, Fan Qianhu had no choice but to sacrifice his dignity and make peace with the cloaked man.
"Very good. Your suggestion is indeed very good. However, you alone are not enough to cope with the pressure from the seven major families. Go and invite Mr. Gao Yan over and let him talk to me."
Qin Dong said calmly.
With his strength, it is not really a problem to break out of the Inspection Department Prison, but the key to the problem is not that, but that Xiao Jiyuan himself and the Xiao family are all in the royal city.
As the saying goes, a monk who can run away cannot run away from the temple. Qin Dong is free and easy alone, but what should Xiao Jiyuan do?
If Xiao Jiyuan escapes in full view of the public, then the Xiao family will inevitably bear the wrath of the entire Inspection Department and the seven major families. The consequences are definitely not what Qin Dong wants to see.
It was with these consequences in mind that when Fan Qianhu proposed to clear Xiao Jiyuan's grievances, Qin Dong did not refuse. What's more, Xiao Jiyuan himself was wronged. As long as he came forward and stood up to the thunder, things would definitely turn around.
Sure enough, when Fan Qianhu saw that the cloaked man was going to interview Gao Shouzhong in person, he was secretly relieved and naturally wished for it. After all, his life was finally saved.
"Senior, please wait a moment. Fan will ask the chief minister to come over now."
After clasping his fists and bowing respectfully to the cloaked man, Fan Qianhu retreated with a frightened look on his face. Before leaving, he did not forget to evacuate all the soldiers, leaving only a few confidants. Keep company in the torture chamber.
The cloaked man was so powerful that these ordinary soldiers could not stop him. Fan Qianhu simply evacuated him to avoid causing the devil's displeasure and causing the situation to collapse again.
Shaoqing, when Fan Qianhu's figure appeared again, a middle-aged man in a golden robe, full of majesty and extraordinary bearing, walked in and appeared in the execution room.
"I've met the first master!"
The remaining soldiers and Xiao Jiyuan were shocked and immediately saluted this man with the utmost respect.
Fan Qianhu stood beside the middle-aged man in gold robe, reduced to a green leaf that set off the flowers, no longer as domineering as before.
When he saw Gao Yanjun again, Qin Dong didn't say a word, but his eyes were full of complexity.
I remember that when I first met this person, he was the supreme leader. In his heart, Qin Dong could only look up to him without any intention of competing.
Time has passed, and even Qin Dong himself did not expect that just over a month had passed, and when he returned to the royal city again, he would be able to talk to him on an equal footing and have a head-on confrontation.
Taking advantage of this gap, Qin Dong did not forget to narrow his eyes slightly and took a look at Gao Yanjun's realm. He found that this guy, like Huangfu Jinglun, had improved and was currently at the second level of the Saint Yuan Realm.
This level of cultivation may not be considered a powerful figure in the Immortal Sect, and it is far from being comparable to those of the Immortal Sect masters, but here, he is already a top master.
Seeing that the cloaked man was silent, Lord Gao Yan was slightly surprised, but he did not get angry. Instead, he discussed the matter and spoke first: "Your Majesty made a big fuss in the Inspection Department and killed three direct young masters among the seven major families. After committing such a major case, you still want to protect Xiao Jiyuan from here, don't you think this is a bit too much?"
