Zhuzhu didn't know that not long after they left, the Zhang family in Qingluan City faced a greater crisis. The Shao family invited a true master in the early stage of distraction to find the only two major families in Qingluan City—— The Zhang family and the Wang family settled accounts.
This time the Zhang family and the Wang family had to put aside their past grudges and work together to fight against the enemy.
Fortunately, after City Lord Zhang returned to Qingluan City, he learned about the death of Mr. Shao in Qingluan City. He understood that the Shao family had lost two Nascent Soul Masters in Qingluan City for no apparent reason and would not let it go.
He immediately made preparations. After all, the Shao family had two out-of-body masters, but what he didn't expect was that the Shao family invited a distracting master to help out, with the intention of plotting against the entire Qingluan City and Wujin Mine.
However, Mr. Shao Er was a close friend of City Master Zhang. He did not want his friend to die in such an unexplained way. While preparing for the battle, he secretly sneaked into the ancestral land of the Shao family and dug up the body of Mr. Shao Er. City Master Zhang carefully After some inspection, it was found that his fatal injury seemed to be caused by his throat being sealed with a long sword. In fact, the real cause of death was that someone used a special palm technique to shatter his heart. Even his vitality was Ying did not escape the disaster.
The sword mark on the throat was only made after Master Shao's death, in order to cover up the real cause of Master Shao's death.
There are not many monks in the entire Eastern Region who possess such powerful palm skills. However, even if Mr. Shao's cultivation is mixed, he himself has at least the middle stage of Nascent Soul, so the person who can easily kill him must be at least Cultivation level above the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
After such elimination, there were few murderers who could be considered. City Lord Zhang quickly thought of Chen Dajiang, an elder of the Shao family who was a powerful guest. He seemed to be a true king in the late Yuan Ying. I heard that his famous stunt was the heart-breaking palm, and combined with what he said when he last met Mr. Shao, City Master Zhang suspected that he was in love with the head of the Shao family.
Chen Dajiang himself is very powerful. Even as a casual cultivator, he is much better than ordinary Nascent Soul casual cultivators. It is not impossible to join a small or medium-sized sect as an elder. There is no need to stay in a small town to serve as a guest elder of the Shao family.
The reason why Chen Dajiang stayed in the Shao family was because the head of the Shao family had saved him, so he was willing to stay in the Shao family as a guest elder.
It can be said that he is only loyal to the head of the Shao family.
Therefore, City Lord Zhang felt that the accidental death of the Shao family's son was caused by Master Shao. At the same time, he heard that the four major families in Qingluan City were fighting among themselves, and wanted to use the death of Master Shao to frame the four major families, so as to further scheme for the Shao family. Seize profits.
City Lord Zhang could understand the overt and covert fights between families for profit, but the only thing he couldn't accept was that the other party actually committed fratricide, and Mr. Shao Er was still one of his few friends.
City Lord Zhang didn't want him to die in such an unexplained way, and to be exploited even after he died.
When the ancestor of the Shao family brought True Lord Runfeng to the Qingluan City Gate, City Lord Zhang, although he was confused by the arrival of True Lord Runfeng, still stated the results of his investigation and analysis in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.
The Shao family leader who was hiding behind his ancestor suddenly panicked. He did not expect that City Master Zhang would go to the Shao family ancestral land to dig up the body and find out the real cause of his death.
If he had known this, he should have destroyed his second brother's bones when he was buried.
At this time, he could not admit it under any circumstances, otherwise his position as the head of the family would be over.
"You're talking nonsense. That's my second brother. How could I let Chen Dajiang kill him instead of you? My second brother heard that your foundation was damaged, so he came all the way to deliver healing pills to you, but he died inexplicably. You Qingluan City, you still want to beat me up, it's really ridiculous, if you Qingluan City don't give our Shao family an explanation today, don't blame our Shao family for being rude."
At this time, it was already the worst situation. A fight between the two families was inevitable, but City Master Zhang did not want Mr. Shao to die in such an unexplained way and be used as a raft: "Shao Boxi and I knew each other four hundred years ago. , because our personalities were compatible with each other, we gradually became sworn friends, and even though the gap in our cultivation became wider and wider, our friendship has not changed."
"Impossible, I have never heard the second brother mention it." The second brother only said that he knew City Master Zhang. City Master Zhang must have said it deliberately to clear himself of suspicion.
"Because he doesn't want to drag me down. My family has placed high hopes on me since I was a child. And because of his qualifications, he also likes things that have nothing to do with cultivation. His status in the Shao family is not as good as that of those branches with good qualifications, so he feels that he is worthless and has no reputation. No, if people find out about my good relationship with him, they will think that he and I are the same. He doesn’t want my reputation to be damaged, and he doesn’t want interested people from both families to take advantage of our relationship, so he gradually gets along with him. I have less contact, but over the years, we still occasionally exchange notes or letters.
What's more, even if I want to kill him, it will be easy, and I won't leave his body to be criticized in Qingluan City. Shao Boxian, do you really think that the game you set up is seamless? "
"What's the meaning?"
The head of the Shao family had a bad premonition when he saw City Master Zhang not only placing the body of Mr. Shao in front of everyone, but also a slightly familiar person came over cautiously.
The man didn't dare to look up at him: "Shao Yue, the villain, has met the ancestor."
The ancestor of the Shao family had a gloomy look on his face. He really wanted to seek an explanation for the two Shao family children who died in Qingluan City, especially the two middle-stage Nascent Souls of the direct bloodline, and avenge them.
The second is to swallow the two big fats, Qingluan City and the surrounding Wujin Mine.
After all, if Zhenzun Runfeng is asked to take action once, the friendship between him and Zhenzun Runfeng will become weaker.
I thought that the Shao family was in charge, and even if they killed the Zhang family, they would be responsible for it, but who knew that things would develop like this.
It seems that Master Shao did not die at the hands of the Zhang family, but because of the internal fighting of their Shao family.
However, now City Lord Zhang singled out the cause of Mr. Shao's death as soon as he came up. It would be better if Zhenzun Runfeng was not here. For the sake of the family's face, he could only bite City Lord Zhang to death and frame him.
But he just invited Zhenzun Runfeng.
Because of his friendship with Zhenzun Runfeng, he had some understanding of him. Zhenzun Runfeng also came from a big family. Because of his high cultivation qualifications, his family had high hopes for him since he was born. However, he did not expect that he would arouse the jealousy of his brother. , after framed him several times and failed, they took advantage of him to go out for training and summoned a group of ruthless casual cultivators to completely kill him so that he could never go back again.
Fortunately, Runfeng Zhenzun should not have given up his life. He was rescued by his later master Yuzhi Zhenzun. After being persecuted repeatedly by his brother, the frustrated Zhenzun Runfeng took the opportunity to worship Yuzhi Zhenzun and entered the Qiankun Sect to practice.
Because of this, Zhenzun Runfeng hated fratricide the most in his life, especially those who deliberately killed each other for profit.
If I had treated Master Shao's death lightly today, refused to question the Shao family leader, and only killed City Master Zhang and others, I would be afraid that Zhenzun Runfeng would not agree and would break off diplomatic relations with him.
However, the head of the Shao family, Shao Boxian, is indeed his most promising descendant, and he is also one of the only two true masters in the family who have left the body.
If he does not protect him today, the Shao family will no longer have any prestige in the Shao family, and he will probably be in ruins. It will be difficult for the Shao family to find a head who can support the family independently like the Shao family.
Ancestor Shao was in a dilemma for a while and turned a blind eye to Shao Yue's salute.
