In a large hall of the Chongxiao Sword Sect, many important figures were discussing matters. In addition to Yang Shao and the core figures of the Chongxiao Sword Sect, there were also sect leaders from other first-rate forces.
Yang Shao did not invite Mu Heng and Zhuge Qing. They might have already taken refuge with Xiao Muyang. Even if they had not, they would no longer be trustworthy the moment they attended the banquet. Letting them come would probably reveal secrets.
"Xiao Muyang must have sent someone to tell you. With the crown prince behind him, this son acts unscrupulously and doesn't take us seriously at all. If he doesn't fight back, I'm afraid his arrogance will become even more arrogant in the future." Yang Shao looked at everyone and said, his tone showing indifference.
Many powerful men nodded, looking very displeased, especially the leaders of the first-rate forces. In the past, they were the overlords in Yunxiao City, and no one dared to act arrogantly in front of them. Now, a celestial figure actually sat on their heads. How could they swallow this breath?
We must fight back!
"What are you going to do, Brother Yang?" a voice came out. The speaker was Jin Yan, the master of the Golden Light Temple. Everyone looked at Yang Shao.
"The reason why Xiao Muyang dares to be so arrogant is simply because Mu Heng and others have taken refuge in him, which gives him some confidence. However, Mu Heng and others have been competing with us for so many years, let alone a junior figure. They are afraid that I can’t afford this shame.”
Yang Shao said: "If I guess correctly, they are just showing up to Xiao Muyang as a pretense and do not want to offend him directly. If Xiao Muyang really orders them to do something, they may not obey his orders."
"It is indeed very possible." Many people nodded. Mu Heng and others are top-level figures in Yunxiao City. How could they lower themselves to serve a junior figure? This is really unreasonable.
"Having said that, I'm not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. I think we should take precautions in advance to avoid letting them sneak attack." Feng Wuji, the owner of Xunfeng Tower, said, much more cautious than others.
Yang Shao glanced at Feng Wuji and said, "Brother Feng is right. I have ordered the four forces to guard outside. If there is any trouble, we will get the news as soon as possible."
"That's very good." Feng Wuji nodded.
"In addition, I have told the Lin family about the situation here. In two days, the Lin family will send some people to support, and the situation will be completely stabilized by then." Yang Shao said with a smile.
Everyone smiled when they heard this. As long as the strong men from the Lin family arrived, Liang Muheng and the others did not dare to act rashly. When the time came, Xiao Muyang would be alone and helpless. How could he challenge them?
"In the past few days, you have sent some people to guard around the Hou Mansion. Once Xiao Muyang leaves the Hou Mansion, he will follow him secretly. If there is a suitable opportunity, he will take action." A cold light flashed in Yang Shao's eyes, as if Mixed with a bit of murderous intent.
Everyone's hearts trembled. Kill Xiao Muyang?
"Xiao Muyang is the first-class prince conferred by the prince in public, and he is also the grandson's young master. If he is killed and the prince blames him, how can we survive?" A strong man said coldly. Although he was very unhappy with Xiao Muyang, he never I thought about killing him.
"Who said we killed him?" Yang Shao glanced at the strong man and said meaningfully: "If he died in Yunxiao City, does that mean he was killed by us?"
Everyone's expressions condensed, and they immediately understood what Yang Shao meant. As long as they refused to admit it, the prince would not have enough reason to attack them.
"Besides, the strong men of the Lin family are coming to Yunxiao City soon. Considering the hatred between the Lin family and Xiao Muyang, it is reasonable for Xiao Muyang to be killed." Yang Shao said again.
Everyone trembled in their hearts and secretly thought that Yang Shao was so brave. He not only dared to kill a first-class marquis, but also dared to put the blame on Lin. If Lin knew that he had such thoughts, he would definitely not let Yang go. Shao.
No one saw that a hidden meaning flashed in the depths of Yang Shao's eyes. The reason why he dared to say such words in public was not because of his boldness, but because of Lin Zhai's instruction.
Lin Zhai asked him to keep Xiao Muyang in Yunxiao City forever at all costs. If there were any consequences, Lin would support him.
Naturally, he would not completely believe Lin Zhai's words, but with Lin Zhai's words, he could use other forces to kill Xiao Muyang. When Xiao Muyang is dead, the prince will only seek revenge on the person who killed him, and fight with him and the Lin family It doesn't matter in the slightest.
"If Xiao Muyang's intention of holding the banquet is not obvious, today he sent a message asking me to come and apologize. This is already treating us as subordinates. If we don't get rid of him, he will definitely attack us in the future. At that time, The situation is hard to say." Yang Shao said in a serious tone.
"Yang is here to express his stance, and the Chongxiao Sword Sect will definitely not bow to him."
The strong men seemed to have seen Yang Shao's determination, and their eyes flashed with sharpness. Since Xiao Muyang insisted on going against them, they had no choice but to take action.
"Brother Yang and I will advance and retreat together." Jin Yan spoke loudly. Yang Shao looked at Jin Yan and said, "Thank you, Brother Jin."
"In that case, just do what Brother Jin said." The Palace Master of Tianji Palace also spoke. After him, several others expressed their opinions, all agreeing with Yang Shao's approach.
Yang Shao showed a bright smile. As long as he got rid of Xiao Muyang, he could claim credit from Lin Zhai and get more benefits from the Lin family. He might become the strongest force in Yunxiao City in the future.
Then the powerful men left the hall and went their separate ways.
…
In the Marquis Mansion, Xiao Muyang was practicing in a palace, surrounded by wisps of golden flames, like a son of flames, with an extremely outstanding temperament.
At this moment, a rickety figure appeared in front of Xiao Muyang, silently. He stood there quietly looking at Xiao Muyang, with a touch of shock in his turbid eyes.
Xiao Muyang opened his eyes, looked at the figure in front of him and said, "Senior."
"How do you feel?" Song Chunqiu asked.
"It's still a little short of time." Xiao Muyang replied. He broke through the realm too quickly last time. He crossed directly from the early stage of the middle celestial phenomenon to the early stage of the upper celestial phenomenon, causing the realm to be a bit unstable. He must stabilize the realm first, otherwise his cultivation will be blocked in the future. .
"Practice does not take place overnight. Your cultivation speed is already far faster than ordinary people. Don't be too quick. Your future achievements will definitely be far above mine." Song Chunqiu said seriously. He was worried that Xiao Muyang would risk his promotion at all costs for revenge. Cultivation, this is sacrificing the basics for the sake of the bottom, and ruining one's future.
"Junior understands." Xiao Muyang nodded. Even if the senior Sword God didn't tell him, he would first consolidate his foundation and then improve his cultivation.
"There are many suspicious people outside the Hou Mansion, they should be the informants of those forces." Song Chunqiu said, his thoughts always enveloped the area around the Hou Mansion, and everyone's every move was in his sight. Suddenly, there were many He has discovered many people with abnormal behavior, and he can quickly discover them.
Xiao Muyang's eyes showed a sharp edge, can't he sit still now?
