Chapter 495: Wolf Ambition
Under Yun Jianchen's careful teaching, Jun Chi Yao and the others gradually learned the stealth technique, and the stealth time gradually increased to about one minute.
Jun Chi Yao made the fastest progress, and the effective time of the stealth technique reached one minute and twenty-three seconds, and Liu Siyan was slightly inferior, reaching nearly one minute and twenty seconds.
Ding Xuexia's stealth time was the shortest, one minute, which was much higher than Yun Jianchen's beginning.
The reason why this is so is because Yun Jianchen now understands stealth techniques, and now his comprehension of stealth techniques has reached a new level, which is why he can increase the effective time of stealth techniques from just over twenty seconds to nearly eight minutes.
Because of this, under his teaching, Jun Chi Yao and the others were able to progress so quickly, even so, it took them nearly two months.
In this way, nearly a year has passed since they left the Shangguan family.
In the past nearly a year, Yun Jianchen and the others have all cut off contact with the outside world, and the reason why this is so is mainly due to the consideration of concentrating on cultivation and avoiding being disturbed, and they are also afraid of being approached by the Nangong family and the Fang family.
Today they have already packed their luggage, they have only one goal this time, Nangong Castle!
They have been missing for nearly a year, and the Nangong family would never have thought that they would raid Nangong Castle, the defense strength of Nangong Castle must have declined compared to before, Yun Jianchen wanted to take this opportunity to give them a surprise attack.
Yun Jianchen wanted to subvert the power of the Great Elder of the Nangong Family in the Nangong Family, and only in this way could the contradiction between the Nangong Family and him be completely resolved.
They traveled day and night, lurking in the mountain range where the Nangong family was located.
At the same time, in Nangong Castle, the core figures of the Nangong family, led by the Great Elder, were urgently holding a meeting.
The focus of what they were talking about was not Yun Jianchen, but Nangong Xiang!
Because the old master woke up, although his mental state was not very good, he also regained consciousness.
The old family master strictly ordered them to call Nangong Xiang back, the great elder and the others disobeyed the yang and yin, they all knew the old family master's intentions, that is, to call Nangong Xiang back to inherit the position of the family master, which was definitely not what their vested interests wanted to see.
You know, during the time when the old master was in a coma, they imprisoned Nangong Xiang, if Nangong Xiang inherited the throne, they still had to get out?
"According to the recovery of the head of the family in the last two days, it is estimated that it will not be long before he will come out to take charge of the family again, and he will definitely know about Nangong Xiang's imprisonment at that time. β
The Great Elder looked at them, his words were cold, and said, "We have been with the head of the family for so long, and we all know the character of the head of the family, if we let him know about this matter, the consequences will be very serious, we will be deprived of our rights at the least, and expelled from the family at the worst. β
"Great Elder, shall we transfer Nangong Xiang out?"
"How to transfer?"
The Great Elder sneered and said, "Don't forget, when Nangong Xiang came back, it was known to everyone, not to mention our family, even the other three major families also knew about it. β
"What do you mean, Great Elder?"
"Great Elder, you just say it, and we will do it. β
These people present at the meeting all looked at the Great Elder, and the Great Elder said in a deep voice: "We have no way to retreat now, we can only let the head of the family abdicate early. β
"Forced palace?"
The eyes of the others showed a look of horror, and they couldn't imagine that the words of forcing the palace actually came from the mouth of the respected Great Elder.
"If you want to be liquidated, then you don't say anything about it. β
The Great Elder looked at these people coldly and said, "Now even if we kill Nangong Xiang, it's useless, the only breakthrough can only be on the head of the family." β
Those people were silent one by one, and the Great Elder said again: "Except for us people, no one knows that the head of the family has come to his senses, if the head of the family dies due to illness, the clan will not feel anything abrupt, after all, he has been in a coma for a long time before. β
Listening to the words of the Great Elder, their expressions changed even more drastically, and they murdered the head of the family, which they had never thought about before.
Even Nangong Xiyue would never think of this, and couldn't help but say, "Great Elder, can we discuss this matter in the long run?"
"No, you can't. β
The Great Elder categorically vetoed it and said, "When I called you here today, I made up my mind, and whoever doesn't want to participate can leave. β
"Great Elder, I am against it, such a rebellious thing as murdering the head of the family, I Nangong Quan will never participate. β
Nangong Quan, who was in charge of the Nangong family's intelligence department, stood up with anger on his face.
Nangong Quan glared at the Great Elder with extreme anger and passed by him.
However, he had barely taken three steps past the Great Elder when he felt a sharp pain in his back.
A bloody fist actually pierced his chest from behind, Nangong Quan looked back, and saw the Great Elder's cold eyes.
"Nangong Quan, this is your own death, you can't blame me. β
The Great Elder withdrew his right fist, and Nangong Quan's whole body fell to the ground, and blood quickly flowed to the ground.
The others were hesitant, but when they saw this scene, they knew that they had already boarded the thief ship, and it was impossible to get rid of it.
The Great Elder's incomparably cold eyes swept at Nangong Xiyue and the others, and said, "Who else wants to leave?"
Nangong Xiyue and the others had gloomy faces and were silent.
"Is there anyone else who wants to leave?"
The Great Elder reiterated again, and Nangong Xiyue and the others shook their heads.
The Great Elder was satisfied and said, "After the head of the family abdicates, Nangong Xiyue will be in charge of the entire family, and the functions and powers of everyone here will not be changed in any way. β
"It's like this, we have no way back, I, Nangong Xiyue, follow the arrangement of the Great Elder. β
When Nangong Xiyue heard this, her eyes bloomed, and a chill appeared on her face.
The position of the head of the family is what she dreams of, although she is only a woman, she is the core descendant of the family.
In addition, she is not married and has no children, so if she inherits the position of head of the family, it will not cause much criticism.
The others looked at each other for a moment, and could only express their approval of the Great Elder's proposal.
Then they discussed a concrete plan of action, and decided to carry out a coup d'Γ©tat at half past eleven o'clock tonight.
Time flew by, and soon it was eleven o'clock in the evening.
The entire Nangong Castle also fell silent, and Yun Jianchen and the others also infiltrated the outer city of Nangong Castle.
The street lights in the outer city were bright, the road was empty, and it was obvious that the people of the Nangong family who lived here had gone to rest.
The work and rest are so neat, which can also be seen how strict the rules of the Nangong family are.
Nangong Bing stood here, his face quite complicated.
This is her family, she should have grown up here, but because of the changes that made her back now.
And it's not a dignified return to the family.
Thinking of what the Nangong family had done to her and Yun Jianchen before, her somewhat active heart became cold again.
Yun Jianchen held her fragrant shoulders with both hands, and lowered his voice: "Bing'er, I promise that I will let you and your uncle officially return here, this is your family, the people here are your blood-related clansmen, you shouldn't wander outside anymore." β
"Jian Chen, you are wrong, they have never regarded me as a clansman, why should I climb the dragon and attach the phoenix. β
Nangong Bing's face turned cold and he spoke.
"Bing'er, your existence may still be a mystery to many people from the Nangong family......
"Jian Chen, don't say any more, I want to see grandpa soon. β
Nangong had a cold face and interrupted Yun Jianchen's words, and Yun Jianchen stopped persuading, this kind of thing can't be explained in a short time, and now the top priority is to take the lead in rescuing Nangong Xiang.
"Let's go!"
Yun Jianchen lowered his voice.
They used the technique of excavation and escape, and one by one they went underground, and soon they escaped into the inner city, towards the dungeon where Nangong Xiang was imprisoned.
When they came to the bottom of the dungeon and walked back and forth for a while, they touched the movement on the ground.
They all got their heads out of the ground, and according to their previous plan of action, they pounced on the guards as they got out of the ground.
The dungeon keepers couldn't stop them at all, and they were all subdued in less than half a minute.
Although their speed was very fast, they also alarmed the other prisoners in the dungeon, they were in a commotion, Yun Jian Chen said with a cold face: "Whoever dares to mumble a word again, there will be no forgiveness!"
As soon as these words came out, the prisoners immediately did not dare to say anything.
Nangong Bing walked towards the cell where Nangong Xiang was, Nangong Xiang had already been awakened, looking at Nangong Bing who was slowly coming through the iron fence, his body trembled suddenly, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
