"The way to control people, pay attention to one piece and one relaxation, this is what the sage said: moderation. Xu Biao stroked his beard and smiled, "Xiao Ke, after your younger brother Abei was murdered, you are my only successor, and I have recently felt that I am a little old, fatigue and weakness are increasing day by day, and the old injuries are faintly painful, so you not only have to practice the ancient martial arts well, but also have to take into account the power and change, and at the same time keep the old accounts of the Xu family in mind." ”

Xu Ke showed a look of sadness, and at the same time, a trace of gloom flashed in his eyes: "Father, I know that your body has deteriorated so quickly because of the reason why you care about Xu Bei's younger brother, but...... He has been taken captive for so long, and we have already dug Yanjing City three feet into the ground behind our backs. And a big living person can't disappear out of thin air, and with no kidnappers contacting us, the answer is already obvious. He was probably poisoned......"

"Don't say it!" Xu Biao's head burst out, stopping him, and at the same time said with a self-deceptive anesthetic mentality, "There is still a slim hope of one in a billion, and he is still alive." Maybe he's in captivity, and he can't get out. As long as we don't give up hope, sooner or later, we can find him. If you live to see people, you have to see corpses when you die, and since there are no corpses, you can only say that they are missing. You urge me to go to the Yanjing City Police Station and let them double the reward, and you must find Xiaobei!"

“…… Be. ”

Xu Ke couldn't bear to destroy his father's last glimmer of hope, although he knew that Xu Bei must be dead, and the reason why he couldn't find the body was because there were so many ways to destroy the corpse now.

As long as those who are willing to keep the body are not willing to keep it, then it is impossible for them to recover it at all.

"You've got to work harder. ”

Xu Biao sighed earnestly again: "I won't tell you anything, your eldest brother Xu Hongtu has been thriving in Australia recently." I have to say that he seems to be suspected of hiding clumsiness in China, because after arriving in Australia, instead of indulging in the entertainment industry full of beautiful women, he worked hard to help our Xu family's mining group regain its prestige, expanded a lot, and its wealth soared. Many elders with relevant interests are already supporting him behind his back. ”

"In the long run, he is afraid that he will be able to earn enough popularity and benefits in Australia, a deserted place where birds don't! At that time, your position will be in jeopardy. Xu Biao sighed, revealing a hint of jealousy, and there was no concern for this so-called eldest son in his eyes at all, only deep vigilance and vigilance.

"Xu Hongtu is not your biological son, just an adopted son brought back from the orphanage, and he is not qualified to inherit the Xu family at all. Xu Ke was furious, "The elders actually support him, they simply want to subvert our Xu family's bloodline!"

Xu Biao shook his head and said with a complicated expression: "This is Xu Hongtu's unique advantage, and his current state is that his bloodline is doubtful, not 100% denied having the bloodline of the Xu family." ”

Xu Ke was stunned for a moment, and then said gloomily: "What you mean is that because Xu Hongtu is not a descendant of the Xu family, if he wants to inherit the position of the head of the family in the future, he must rely on those elders, and he will break with us." When the time comes, the elders will gain more power as a result. It's this temptation that makes the careerists of the Presbyterian Church flutter?"

"It's more than that. Xu Biao's eyes were gloomy, "Xu Hongtu's bloodline is doubtful, so after he takes the throne, they will be able to detonate this timed ** and directly get him out, and when the time comes, the position of the head of the family will be vacant, and all the outstanding heirs of the Xu family can participate in the competition." At that time, the Xu family will be in chaos, and the elders will be able to appear on the stage to compete for this throne. ”

"Is Xu Hongtu a fool? Knowing that he is being used, he is still willing to be used as a gunman?!" Xu Ke gritted his teeth.

"He willing. Xu Biao's voice gradually became cold and hard, "Haven't you seen it yet? Why does this guy deliberately disguise himself as a second ancestor in China, soak in the entertainment industry all day long, and have no ambiguity with some third-rate celebrities and Internet female anchors? Why did he immediately reveal his true form after gaining a firm foothold in Australia, showing amazing energy and ability? Obviously, he hates me, hates your mother, hates you and Xiaobei! So, he's going to get revenge, he's going to take my place and yours, and he's going to be happy to cooperate with the elders even for this simple purpose. He's not doing things driven by profit at all, it's hate!"

Xu Ke closed his mouth and was speechless.

"Then we'll ...... him" Xu Ke was silent for a long time and made a throat-cutting motion.

"It's too late. Xu Biao sighed, "The first batch of killers I sent were sunk into the sea, including two strong men with ten levels of internal strength. ”

Xu Ke's color changed, shocked by this news, and couldn't help blurting out: "How is it possible?"

"Yes, how is it possible?" Xu Biao also nodded in agreement, "I, like you, couldn't believe it after hearing the report. A second ancestor who was ignored by everyone, ridiculed by everyone, and despised by everyone in Yanjing City, and a rich second generation who was incompetent and incompetent, quietly let my elite assassination team annihilate and evaporate from the world! Xu Hongtu's recent surprises to me are really becoming more and more frequent. ”

"And. Xu Biao looked deeply at his most doted son, "Xiao Ke, you have to remember one thing! For the Xu family, only the innate martial artists are indispensable, and the rest of the martial artists don't matter at all." Even if it is a strong person with ten internal strengths, in a place like the Qi family or the Chu family, he may be regarded as a pillar, but in our Xu family, it is completely some high-level officials, nothing more. Therefore, unless you are sure of being promoted to an innate martial artist, your cultivation can be put on hold for a while. ”

Xu Ke was suddenly a little anxious and hurriedly wanted to refute.

Xu Biao immediately made a "STOP" gesture, signaling him not to speak first, and then said solemnly: "I understand what you mean, when I am as young and naïve as you, I am also so impatient, and I don't want adults to make irresponsible remarks about my choices and future." I won't force you to stop cultivating, but I have to remind you of one thing: if you can become the head of the Xu family, you will be able to obtain 10 times as many cultivation resources as you are now!"

Xu Ke was silent.

Xu Biao continued: "If I fall and lose the throne of the head of the family, then you will also lose your status as the orthodox heir, and the cultivation resources you can obtain will only be one-tenth of what you are now. Back and forth, a full 100-fold difference, you can calculate it yourself. ”

"That'...... We have to defend your position first, father, and then execute the hidden danger of Xu Hongtu!" Xu Ke was not stupid, and quickly straightened out the pros and cons, so he took a deep breath and said, "Dad, the first thing we should do is to send someone to Australia to find out Xu Hongtu's bottom and hole cards." He was able to take out our elite team, and there must be some special forces supporting him. ”

"The child can be taught. ”

Xu Biao patted him on the shoulder with relief, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "However, these things can be done slowly, and our top priority is to win the hearts of the Qi family." In fact, if it weren't for Xu Hongtu's little bastard rising in Australia, and being supported by the elders and threatening my position as the head of the family, I wouldn't have bothered to take care of the Qi family at all. It's just that now we can't fight on two fronts, and we have to concentrate on dealing with the threat from the Okazaki family, so I can only deal with Zhou Qiang, appease the Qi family, and calm the commotion within the family head. When I have my hands free, I will completely solve the little trouble caused by Xu Hongtu!"

Xu Ke also showed a worried look, and counted with his fingers:

"The first trouble we face is the revenge of the Okazaki family, which is close at hand. ”

"The second trouble is Xu Hongtu's sudden rise in Australia. ”

"The third trouble is the growing number of dissatisfied voices within the Presbyterian Church against you. ”

"The fourth trouble is Zhou Qiang, who is as slippery as a loach. ”

After taking stock, Xu Ke frowned: "Then let's solve it one by one, Zhou Qiang is the easiest of them, after getting him, Qi Hongshan will calm down his long-standing grievances and become loyal again, when the time comes, we will solve Xu Hongtu again! In that case, the elders will lose the weapon against you, and they will be obedient again." ”

"Nope. Xu Biao sighed, putting his hands behind his back, "After we solve Zhou Qiang, we have to solve the trouble of the Okazaki family first, and their attack on the Xu family is imminent! According to effective intelligence, we learned that Okazaki Xiong has not appeared on the main island of Japan for half a year, and it is obvious that in the days when he has been missing, there is a high probability that he has infiltrated our Huaxia!"

"Is there such a thing?" Xu Ke suddenly changed, his face was jealous and vigilant, "Father, it is said that Okazaki Xiongya is already a sword saint, and this title in Japan means innate! ”

"We've got a plan, rest assured. Xu Biao stroked his beard and was leisurely, "The heritage of our Xu family is not something that a junior like you can understand. When you inherit my position in the future, you will know one thing: the part of the Xu family hidden under the surface of the water is far beyond what it floats on! Therefore, Okazaki Xiong will not be a trouble, but how to force him to take the initiative to show up is a trouble. ”

"We can ......"

……

……

The night is dark.

Six hours have passed since Zhou Qiang destroyed Dongxiang Auction House.

In Villa 047, Zhou Qiang was resting, but what seemed to be a coin-shaped object suddenly shot towards his bedroom window.

As the king of killers, Q, he reacted so keenly, almost immediately smelled the dangerous killing intent, so he got up from the bed one by one, took out the gilded AK under the pillow, and looked like a torch.

Since he had already received the news from Okazaki Sakura Senmai and knew that the Xu family would do something to him, he was always waiting for him, especially after solving the trouble from Xu Tailai and Xu Wulong today, he knew better that the Xu family's revenge would come sooner or later.

So he was naturally preparing to deal with the counterattack from the Xu family for a long time.

Click.

The glass window was shattered.

Zhou Qiang frowned slightly, Okazaki Sakura Senmai promised to send someone to help him strengthen the villa, but so far, they still haven't moved, and the Xu family won't wait.

It seems that if you want to count on the Okazaki family, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for a while, but the danger is imminent, so I have to ask an old friend to help.

Thoughts flashed, Zhou Qiang no longer hesitated, he rolled out directly through the broken window, his eyes glancing coldly at the three intruders.

One tall, one short and one fat!

"Are you daring to break into a residential community in Yanjing City to make trouble for me?" Zhou Qiang glanced at their faces indifferently, and the corners of his lips outlined a cold smile, "Or, do you think that you are from the Xu family, so you can be unscrupulous?"
