Chapter 523: Shangguan Chen's hesitation
"Abandon Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, the three parties of the He family?Is it possible?" Zheng Yu heard Shangguan Tong's words, and after being stunned for a moment, he could only shake his head with a wry smile.
Some things, although they are easy to say, but when you really face them, you will find how difficult they are.
Wang Guiyi is one of the important generals of the city guard, although nominally he is his own subordinate and under his own control, but in fact he cannot command him at all.
Because Wang Guiyi is not simply a city guard general, the three of his ancestors are all from the city guard, especially Wang Guiyi's grandfather, who was once the supreme commander of the Hongyan City City Guard, many officers of the city guard army were raised by Wang Guiyi's grandfather, and now Wang Guiyi's grandfather has passed away, but this incense is still left.
Therefore, if the city lord Shangguan Chen and Wang Guiyi fall out, then the city guards who originally belonged to him may leave at least three adults, and many officers will follow Wang Guiyi to leave the city lord Shangguan Chen.
Let's talk about Liu Zhiguang, Liu Zhiguang is one of the elders of Hongyan City, this person is extremely good at alchemy, it can be said that he is the first alchemist in Hongyan City, and he has great influence in Hongyan City, and many alchemists have been instructed by him and can be regarded as his students.
Therefore, it can be said unceremoniously that if Shangguan Chen really dares to fall out with Liu Zhiguang, then Shangguan Chen will not be able to find an alchemist to refine for him in Hongyan City in the future, and he will not be able to get another pill as a supply.
Of course, Jinpeng Commercial Bank also has pills for sale, but for that price is definitely black enough, if you have a small demand, forget it, and if you have a large demand, I will definitely lose you.
Finally, there is the He family, and among the three parties, the He family is the most important. It's also the most headache.
The He family, this is an old family in Hongyan City with a deeper and stronger historical background than the Sun family, and perhaps it is because of the intention to annex other forces in Hongyan City, the He family joined the camp of the city lord Shangguan Chen, wanting to change the pattern of Hongyan City, and then seek benefits for themselves.
The He family is a well-deserved number one wealthy family in Hongyan City. And it is with the help of the He family's financial resources that Shangguan Chen's many things can be done, if the He family and Shangguan Chen are separated from morality, then although I dare not say that Shangguan Chen will be so exaggerated in the future, but it will definitely be stretched, if you want to do anything again, even if you succeed in the end, the price you have to pay is several times the previous one.
In short, these three parties are the forces that Shangguan Chen relies on the most. It is impossible for them to casually say that they will fall out, and if they really leave with hatred, then I am afraid that it is almost time for Shangguan Chen to prepare to leave Hongyan City.
"Uncle Zheng, I know the importance of the three of them, but this matter is not negotiable!" Shangguan Tong seemed to see the wry smile in Zheng Yu's eyes, and she still said firmly, without hesitation.
"It's too early to talk about that. Let's go back and talk about it!" Zheng Yu said helplessly.
Shangguan Tong was silent for a moment, then nodded in acquiescence.
"Let's go!"
Zheng Yu jumped back onto the Earthwalker. Then he glanced at Sun Zhengxiong, Chen Deguang and the others coldly, then turned around and shouted coldly.
As soon as the words fell, the city guards brought by Zheng Yu escorted Shangguan Tong and Xiao Fan one after another, and walked towards the outside of the Linfeng Formation Guild.
"Brother Xiao would like to be a guest at my father's City Lord's Mansion for a few days?" Shangguan Tong walked over briskly and chuckled at Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan groaned. He didn't answer immediately, he understood what Shangguan Tong meant, but he didn't want to go, because he wanted to find a clean place to refine the silent stone in order to restore his injured divine sense.
And. After today's incident, if he lives in the City Lord's Mansion, it will also confirm the connection between Shangguan Tong and today's events, and when the time comes, it doesn't matter if he is alone, but it will inevitably make Shangguan Tong suffer from unwarranted disasters.
"Brother Xiao should have bought the Silent Stone to arrange the formation, right? And it just so happened that there was a Pure Heart Jade Array in the City Lord's Mansion, which could effectively restore Brother Xiao's divine consciousness recovery speed after arranging the formation!" Shangguan Tong was also a shrewd person, she immediately saw Xiao Fan's reluctance to go, and then her mind raced, and she said with a chuckle.
"Pure Heart Jade Array!" Hearing Shangguan Tong's words, Xiao Fan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although the level of the Qingxin Jade Formation is not high, this is an unobtainable superb formation, which can effectively restore divine consciousness, and Xiao Fan can use it right now.
In fact, Xiao Fan originally wanted to arrange a Pure Heart Jade Array, but there must be a piece of Clear Heart Colored Jade in the eyes of the Clear Heart Jade Array, and through Zhang Zongling's memory, Xiao Fan knew that there was no such rare jade in the entire Hongyan City, so in the end, the plan to arrange the Clear Heart Jade Array could only be put on hold.
Now that Shangguan Tong has taken the initiative to say that there is such a big array in the City Lord's Mansion, then looking at the entire Hongyan City, I am afraid that the best place for Xiao Fan to recover his divine consciousness is the City Lord's Mansion.
As for those troubles, Shangguan Tong's father and daughter may be wronged a little first, but afterwards, Xiao Fan will inevitably repay a thousand times.
"Okay!" After pondering for a while, Xiao Fan finally agreed and agreed to go to the City Lord's Mansion with Shangguan Tong.
"Then let's go!" Shangguan Tong suddenly became happy, his voice was brisk, and his eyes turned into a crooked crescent.
Xiao Fan nodded, and walked forward with Shangguan Tong.
"Zheng Yu, are you sure you want to protect this Xiao Fan?" At this moment, Sun Zhengxiong behind him asked again in a cold voice.
"Sun Zhengxiong, I advise you to hurry back to your son's funeral, there are some things, you should take care of some things!" Zheng Yu was in an irritable mood at this time, so when he heard Sun Zhengxiong's words behind him, he immediately responded with an unceremonious sneer.
"Zheng!Yu!" Sun Zhengxiong suddenly roared!
Zheng Yu ignored him at all, and slowly walked towards the outside of the Linfeng Formation Guild with a group of city guard soldiers and Xiao Fan Shangguan Tong.
"Zheng Yu, you wait, soon, I will make you kneel in front of me and beg me to let you go!" Sun Zhengxiong was completely angry, his voice was extremely cold, full of cruelty, "And Xiao Fan, don't think you can avoid today's incident, let me tell you, next, you will definitely die!"
"Okay, then I'll wait to see what you do!" Zheng Yu glanced back at Sun Zhengxiong. glanced at Chen Deguang again, then sneered, and then took a group of city guard soldiers and Xiao Fan Shangguan Tong to go farther and farther away, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Inform Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang and the He family, and then we will join forces to besiege the City Lord's Mansion!" Sun Zhengxiong looked at Xiao Fan. Shangguan Tong and Zheng Yu and the others left in the direction of their departure, and said to the people around them in a low voice.
"Yes!" a henchman immediately responded, and then quickly left with the person into the distance.
"Xiao Fan, Zheng Yu, I swear, I will let you die!" Sun Zhengxiong roared lowly, like a mad beast, his eyes fiercely looking into the distance
Castle Lord's Mansion!
"Poof!", "Poof!". "Poof!"
In the middle of the courtyard swim in the pond a dozen white-tailed arowana, which constantly jump out of the water and fall into the water, causing a large splash and making a dull sound.
A middle-aged man in a green shirt with a resolute face stood silently next to the fish pond with his hands behind his back, looking at the dozen or so white-tailed arowanas in the fish pond in a daze!
It is Shangguan Tong's father, Shangguan Chen!
Shangguan Chen's news is so sensitive. Just after Zheng Yu arrived at the Linfeng Formation Guild, he knew everything about the Linfeng Formation Guild. And after knowing this, Rao has never been surprised, and he can't help but feel a little black in front of his eyes for a while, and he smiles bitterly, and then the whole person has an urge to faint and fall to the ground.
Troublesome, troublesome. Very troublesome!
Because they are partners, Shangguan Chen knows that Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and the He family are not broad-minded people, and Xiao Fan killed their daughter and granddaughter. They're not going to rest on their laurels.
Not to mention that there are Sun Zhengxiong and Chen Deguang next to them!
In the face of this super trouble, intellectually speaking, the best way is to clear up the relationship with Xiao Fan, and then he only needs to make some compensation, and he can cooperate with Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and the He family again, and his willingness to change the situation in Hongyan City can still be realized one day.
And if you can't get involved with Xiao Fan, the consequences will be absolutely unimaginable!
"City Lord!" Suddenly, a gray-robed old man appeared at the gate of the courtyard in the back, and he bowed respectfully to Shangguan Chen and whispered, "Commander Zheng and the eldest lady are back, and Xiao Fan is back with them!"
"Xiao Fan, he's here too?" Hearing the words of the gray-robed old man, Shangguan Chen's face suddenly showed a helpless bitter smile.
"Yes!" the gray-robed old man replied in a low voice.
Shangguan Chen stopped talking, but his face showed a look of fierce struggle.
At this time, there is still a chance, as long as Xiao Fan is arrested or expelled, then he can get out of this big trouble, and if he hesitates, when Xiao Fan really enters the City Lord's Mansion, then it will be too late to say anything after that!
"Do you want the old slave to arrest or drive that Xiao Fan away?" As if seeing Shangguan Chen's struggle and hesitation, the gray-robed old man suddenly said in a low voice.
Shangguan Chen didn't speak, but the struggling color on his face became stronger and stronger.
"The old slave understands!" The gray-robed old man suddenly understood and spoke, and then he turned around and walked outside, going to make a decision for Shangguan Chen and arrest Xiao Fan.
"Forget it!" But the gray-robed old man had only just taken two steps, and Shangguan Chen suddenly seemed to have figured out something, and then let out a long breath, smiled bitterly, and said helplessly.
"City Lord, there is still a chance!" the gray-robed old man said in a low voice with a calm expression.
"I know!" Shangguan Chen nodded slightly, but shook his head again and smiled bitterly, "But, I can't do that, in the end, he is Tong'er's life-saving benefactor after all, how can I do such a righteous and shameless thing?"
"But the city lord, who has achieved great things, must give up, and sometimes morality has to give way in the face of interests!" the gray-robed old man sighed and said.
"Maybe!" Shangguan Chen said with a low wry smile, "However, I can't become that kind of person after all, let alone do something like that!"
"But City Lord, don't forget, now that more than three years have passed, there are less than two years left, and when the time comes, Red Rock City still can't become what you promised to the Water Cloud Holy Land, then you will be permanently expelled from the Water Cloud Holy Land!" the gray-robed old man sighed again.
Shangguan Chen was silent and didn't speak!
"My lord, the opportunity is fleeting, please make a decision quickly, it's too late, it's too late!" The gray-robed old man's calm face finally showed a hint of anxiety, and he said in a low voice.
"I!" Shangguan Chen opened his mouth and stammered, and his heart struggled violently again.
Moments later!
"Okay, Uncle Li, let Xiao Fan come in, and then Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and the He family come to the door, and then we will see you again!" Shangguan Chen's eyes finally became firm, and he said firmly.
"City Lord!" the gray-robed old man stepped forward and said anxiously.
"Uncle Li, you don't need to say anything more!" Shangguan Chen calmed down, and said in a firm voice, "The eldest husband has something to do and something not to do, and I still can't take action against my daughter's life-saving villain!"
"And then again, even if I catch Xiao Fan, and then hand Xiao Fan over to Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, what about the He family?"
"Will they be grateful to me? No, they will only look down on me even more, despise me, the original cooperative relationship between me and them is that he is strong and I am weak, and if I humbly hand over Xiao Fan, then my cooperation with them will be even more unequal in the future!"
"In this way, even if it works out in the future and we succeed in changing the situation in Red Rock City, then all the fruits of my work will be stolen by them, and everything I have worked hard for all these years is just making a wedding dress for them sadly!"
"So, I might as well take this opportunity to break off with them, and then reorganize the power in my hands, simplify the complex, turn the more into less, turn the ordinary into the elite, and in the future, I won't have the power to fight!"
"I understand!" The gray-robed old man suddenly groaned, and then he nodded, and the murderous aura on his body suddenly collapsed, disappearing without a trace, and recognized Shangguan Chen's decision.
"Okay, let's go, let's go and meet this Xiao Fan together!" Shangguan Chen turned around, and then walked towards the gray-robed old man unhurriedly, and at the same time said with such a hint of curiosity in his mouth, "I want to see, what kind of ability does this strange young man, who has only been in the city for less than three days, have the ability to stir up the changes and undercurrents of the entire Hongyan City?"
"What level of formation mage is he?"
"Where did he come from, and what was his identity?"
"Really a very special, very special person!"
"And perhaps, although we have lost Wang Guiyi, Liu Zhiguang, and the He family, we can make friends with him, which is a good thing?"
The gray-robed old man didn't speak, just remained silent.
However, Shangguan Chen didn't care about this, and then his eyes flashed with a strange color, and he continued to walk in the direction of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and the gray-robed old man also followed. (To be continued.) )
