Chapter 425
Shi Zhenxiang soon arrived at Lihua's residence.
Seeing the bloody mess on Lihua's face, Shi Zhenxiang was stunned, with a flash of pride in her eyes.
In the past, she felt that although pear blossoms were beautiful, they were worlds apart compared to herself.
But now, Shi Zhenxiang herself was disfigured. Every time she saw a woman in front of her, she wanted to disfigure her too.
Now that she saw Pear Blossom's appearance, she finally felt more balanced.
"What a waste!"
Shi Zhenxiang snorted coldly, then turned and left Lihua's residence.
Not far away, Shi Zhenxiang saw her father, Shi Guangnian, standing not far away, looking at her gloomily.
"What are you looking at!"
Shi Guangnian sighed:
"Zhenxiang, that Xiao Zhan is not a simple person. Don't provoke him again, don't force your father to restrain you."
Shi Zhenxiang glared at Shi Guangnian angrily, "You are not the owner of the village anymore, so what qualifications do you have to care about me?"
Shi Guangnian was furious to death:
"I am your father!"
"I have never seen a father like you! My daughter was disfigured, and instead of venting my anger, you gave up your position as the owner of the village to him."
The more Shi Zhenxiang talked, the angrier she became, "I don't want to stay at Haoyue Villa anymore, you are embarrassing me so much."
Shi Guangnian raised his palm and was so angry that he wanted to hit Shi Zhenxiang in the face.
He regretted so much that he had devoted himself to practicing martial arts in seclusion and neglected to teach Shi Zhenxiang.
Shi Zhenxiang raised her neck:
"You fight, why don't you fight?!"
Shi Guangnian sighed:
"Zhenxiang, dad's life is still in his hands. If you offend him, dad won't survive."
Shi Zhenxiang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Shi Guangnian with contempt:
"Is it true that Xiao Zhan is your illegitimate son as they said?"
"He also said that your life is in his hands, who would believe it?"
Shi Zhenxiang sneered again and again:
"We have severed the relationship between father and daughter. From now on, you should take care of me less."
After saying that, Shi Zhenxiang left directly, but Shi Guangnian grabbed his arm directly and sealed the true essence.
Two disciples ran over, clasped their fists at Shi Guangnian and said:
"The owner of the village."
Shi Guangnian nodded:
"Take care of the young lady. From now on, she is not allowed to leave her residence even half a step."
The two disciples nodded, then helped Shi Zhenxiang to leave.
A month passed by in a hurry.
Today is the day when Haoyue Villa holds a celebration for Xiao Zhan.
According to the usual practice, major forces send elders and some young disciples to show their respect.
But today is different.
Shi Guangnian abdicated for no reason, which was unusual.
After learning that the new owner of Haoyue Villa was named Xiao Zhan, the leaders of the big forces in Zhongzhou immediately understood.
This Xiao Zhan must be that evildoer Xiao Zhan in Huangzhou.
Like Shi Guangnian, they were all released from Huangzhou by Xiao Zhan. They all carry poison in their bodies, so how dare they not give face to them.
Therefore, these God King Realm experts came to Haoyue Villa in person.
Starting early in the morning, powerful people continued to arrive.
The entire Haoyue Villa seemed extremely lively.
Ordinary elders, naturally there are elders from Haoyue Villa to entertain them.
Disciples from various major forces and disciples from Haoyue Villa accompanied them to play in the villa.
In the Haoyue Palace.
Shi Guangnian was sitting in the position of the deputy village owner. He glanced at the position of the village owner and saw that Xiao Zhan hadn't arrived yet. He frowned immediately, wondering what Xiao Zhan was doing.
In the main hall, the heads of the major forces also showed doubts on their faces.
Someone looked at Shi Guangnian and asked:
"Shi Zhuang
Lord, why haven’t people come yet? "
Shi Guangnian looked unhappy: "How do I know?!"
The other God King Realm experts also fell silent.
At this moment, a disciple standing outside the main hall suddenly said loudly:
"The master of Jubao Pavilion has arrived!"
Then I saw Li Jun, striding in, sitting down on the chair as if no one else was around, without saying hello to anyone.
Many people looked at Li Jun.
Although they were all curious about Jubao Pavilion, they did not think that Jubao Pavilion was a big force.
It's just an opportunistic ordinary chamber of commerce that took advantage of the decline of Wanbao Tower to rise.
Li Jun chuckled, took out an invitation and said:
"Master Xiao Zhan personally wrote the invitation for me. Do you want to see it?"
Everyone immediately looked away, but there was a hint of understanding in their eyes.
It seems that this treasure gathering building has something to do with Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan appeared at the door of the hall at this time and slowly walked into the hall.
Just like in Wanbao City some time ago, Xiao Zhan wore the golden ring on his finger. When he walked, he waved his arm slightly, and the ring caught everyone's eyes.
Xiao Zhan took a look and saw that all the masters of the God King in the hall had been released from Huangzhou.
Xiao Zhan got straight to the point:
"I have called everyone here today for one thing. When I get back, I will immediately announce that all your forces will surrender to the Wuji Palace and accept me as the successor of the Lord of the Wuji Palace."
Everyone was confused.
Isn't Xiao Zhan from Huangzhou? Why is it related to Wuji Palace again?
Although they were confused, no one asked, they just nodded.
What can you do if you don’t do it?
The poison in their bodies still needs Xiao Zhan's help to resolve it. If they don't obey, they can only wait to die slowly.
Xiao Zhan just said this, and then stood up to leave. When he walked out of the hall, he looked at Li Jun and said:
"You come with me."
Li Jun nodded, jumped up from his chair, and followed Xiao Zhan.
There were many people in the villa and it was very noisy, but the courtyard where Xiao Zhan lived was still quiet.
Li Jun glanced at the ferocious beasts in the animal pen, looked back at Xiao Zhan, and said:
"Palace Master, okay, what kind of master do you want to be in Haoyue Villa?"
"Isn't this a price drop?"
Xiao Zhan rolled his eyes at Li Jun:
"I'm not joking with you, let's get down to business."
"Now, there are 200,000 of our brothers in the villa, all of them elites."
"Have you prepared the gray robes and masks I asked you to prepare for the brothers?"
Li Jun nodded: "It's already on the way. It can be quietly transported to the vicinity of Baiyue City in two days at the latest."
Xiao Zhan nodded:
"I want to bring people from the Sima family to show up."
"Jubaolou now has another intelligence network in its hands. From now on, we must pay close attention to the movements in various parts of Zhongzhou. Once we find suspicious people, we must keep an eye on them."
Li Jun frowned:
"Palace Master, you have interrogated the two Sima family members you captured under the dungeon of Wanbao Tower many times."
"But they really don't seem to know the specific direction of Sima's island."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Then there's no need for further interrogation. Just follow what I told you, send the person to the designated place and someone will pick him up."
Li Jun nodded: "Then Master, I will leave first."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Be safe."
Li Jun raised his right arm, clenched his fist and placed it on his heart, "Don't worry, Lord, I will act with caution."
After Li Jun left, Xiao Zhan took out the summons jade talisman and directly sent a message to Mo Chen:
"Some time ago, I captured two people in the dungeon of Wanbao Tower. You go to the canyon a thousand miles southeast of Maple Leaf City. My brother will send the people there. You can take them back and interrogate them again."
Soon, Mo Chen's voice rang out:
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
Xiao Zhan: "It's not too late."
Mo Chen: "Who are those two people?"
Xiao Zhan: "A member of the Sima family."
Mo Chen: "Oh...what! Real or fake!"
Xiao Zhan said "Yeah", "Those monsters were created by the Sima family."
"Do you think those monsters are related to the core of the next stage of human civilization?"
After Xiao Zhan said these words, it took a long time for Mo Chen's voice to come back, and it became particularly solemn:
"You mean, the next stage of human civilization is to turn into such a monster?"
Xiao Zhan: "I don't know, so I asked you to take the person back for questioning."
Mo Chen: "If you can't interrogate him, can we interrogate him?"
"Tell me all the information you have now."
Xiao Zhan: "I don't have any other information, so I just want to inform you that I plan to officially announce the identity of the successor of the master of Wuji Palace."
Mo Chen: "But you are not."
Xiao Zhan: "Are you lying? The inheritance ring in my hand is fake?"
Mo Chen: "It's true."
Xiao Zhan: "Then why do you say that I am not the true successor of the Palace Master?"
Mo Chen: "..."
After a long time, Mo Chen said:
"I know, I will let this news spread throughout the five states as quickly as possible."
Xiao Zhan said "hmm" and said, "I want everyone to believe it."
Mo Chen directly cut off the communication.
Mo Chen's Wuji Palace handles things very quickly.
In less than three days, the true successor of Wuji Hall's master appeared, and now it has become the master of Haoyue Villa. The news has spread throughout the five states.
Moreover, as the news spread that the major forces in Zhongzhou announced their submission to Wuji Palace and the successor of the palace master, it seemed that there was no need to consider the authenticity of this matter.
One after another, many mysterious masters appeared near Haoyue Villa.
After a God Emperor Realm expert confirmed the authenticity of the inheritance ring in Xiao Zhan's hands at Haoyue Villa, more and more mysterious masters appeared.
These are all branch forces from another lineage of Wuji Palace.
The fifth elder of the Sima family rushed to Haoyue Villa as soon as they heard the news.
Xiao Zhan also didn't expect that people from the Sima family would come so quickly.
In the main hall.
Sima Teng sat on the chair and looked at Xiao Zhan expressionlessly.
To be precise, he looked at the inheritance ring on Xiao Zhan's finger.
This inheritance ring was originally lost by the Sima family.
Sima Teng recognized at a glance that this inheritance ring was real.
He also didn't expect that the Xiao Zhan he was looking for was actually the new owner of Haoyue Villa who caused a stir in the world, and he had a real inheritance ring in his hand.
But Sima Teng also breathed a sigh of relief.
The person has been found, and the inheritance ring has also been found. As long as they are brought back to the Sima family together, it will be two great achievements.
Sima Teng looked at Xiao Zhan and slowly said:
"In your thirties, you have already reached the middle stage of the God King Realm. There are vague signs of breaking through again. You are indeed the most evil genius I have ever seen."
"Our Sima family released this inheritance ring just to find a suitable successor for Wuji Palace."
"Since you have obtained the inheritance ring, it means that you are destined to our Sima family."
"You come back to Sima's house with me, and we will train you well."
After saying that, Sima Teng didn't want to stay for a moment longer. He stood up directly and said to Xiao Zhan:
"Let's go. The broken owner of Haoyue Villa is not very attractive. Huangzhou is still just a wasteland, not worth lingering on."
"Only when you join our Sima family will you know how big this world is."
Xiao Zhan looked at Sima Teng with a smile:
"Senior, wasn't the inheritance ring lost by your Sima family? How come it was released by your Sima family on its own initiative?"
Sima Teng's eyes turned cold, "Our Sima family is so powerful, how could we lose such an important thing?"
Xiao Zhan chuckled: "Senior, are you being harsh?"
Sima Teng snorted coldly:
"Xiao Zhan, don't think that just because you are a genius, you can speak arrogantly in front of me."
"As the fifth elder of the Sima family, I am a strong man in the early stage of the God Emperor realm. What do you think you have to question my words?"
"Don't you want to be the master of Wuji Palace?"
"Without the support of our Sima family, you would never be able to succeed in this life."
"I also have the right to take back the inheritance ring in your hand."
"Don't ask for trouble."
Xiao Zhan nodded:
"Senior is so majestic, have you ever thought that this is a plan to attract your Sima family to show up?"
Sima Teng's eyes flashed:
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Zhan smiled and said nothing.
